Atlantic General Hospital Provides Free Flu Shots
Posted Date: 9/20/2011
Frequent handwashing and avoiding close contact with those who are sick certainly helps but, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the best way to prevent the flu is getting a flu vaccine each year.
Influenza and complications resulting from the virus kill an estimated 20,000 people each year, according to the CDC. Although rates of influenza vaccinations have increased in recent years, health surveys indicate that less than half of the high-risk population receives a yearly vaccine.
Influenza, or flu, is a highly contagious virus spread by inhaling droplets from an infected individual's cough or sneeze. Most symptoms emerge within 24 to 48 hours and are characterized by fever, chills, sore throat, cough and headache. Just one infected person can unknowingly pass on the flu to family members and loved ones because the virus can be transmitted 24 hours before symptoms appear.
Those at an increased risk for influenza related complications:
• persons 65 years and older
• nursing home residents and other chronic care facilities
• adults and children with chronic disorders of the pulmonary or cardiovascular systems, including children with asthma
• people with metabolic diseases such as diabetes
• those with blood diseases like sickle cell anemia, or impaired immunity.
Children and teenagers on long-term aspirin therapy and anyone working or living with someone in a high-risk category should get a flu shot every year.
The vaccine is usually given before the flu season. Individuals can receive the vaccine from their health care providers or at one of the free immunization clinics offered provided by Atlantic General Hospital and the Atlantic General Health System.
Since flu viruses mutate often, vaccines should be repeated each year. The vaccine is made from eggs. If you are allergic to eggs, consult with your health care provider.
As a service to our community's health, Atlantic General Hospital/Health System annul flu shot clinics are FREE to the community. Individuals must be at least 13 years old to receive the vaccine at one of the free clinics.
This year the hospital and health system has scheduled the clinics as follows:
• Hospital Lobby
o Wednesday, October 12, 2 p.m. - 6 p.m.
o Wednesday, October 19, 2 p.m. - 6 p.m.
o Wednesday, October 26, 2 p.m. - 6 p.m.
o Wednesday, November 2, 2 p.m. - 6 p.m.
o Wednesday, November 16, 2 p.m. - 6 p.m.
Snow Hill
• Taylor Bank Snow Hill
o Tuesday, October 18, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Ocean City

o Friday, October 21, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Ocean View, DE

Must be at least 18 years of age to receive the vaccine at this clinic
• Pocomoke Fire Hall
o Tuesday, November 1, 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Hospital officials urge you to schedule an appointment with your primary care provider to receive your flu shot. The flu vaccine, including the high dose vaccine for those 65 and older will be available at all Atlantic General Health System physician offices beginning October 1.

I am on Enbrel injections for psoriasis. I cannot have the flu shot if it is a live virus. Wanted to know if it is still possible to have if the virus is inactive?

We would also like to invite you to attend the annual Visions for Total Health Conference on Saturday, November 5 at Millsboro Middle School in Millsboro, Delaware. Atlantic General Hospital has made arrangements with the Sussex County Health Department to offer free flu shots during that event.

Ms. Marshall,
Thank you for your comments. Ongoing feedback from the community helps us better shape healthcare service delivery. We will certainly take this into consideration when planning next year's clinics.

I am also sorry to see that the Saturday clinic was dropped. I understand your explanation that you had a better turn out of people during the week, but it leaves a gap for people that cannot get off work during the week and/or have no health insurance to go to their primary care giver. I would have liked to have seen at least 1 or 2 Saturday clinics offered in conjunction to the weekday clinics. Hopefully, next year a Saturday clinic will be considered.

Mr. Lockhart, we apologize for any inconvenience this year's free flu clinic schedule may pose. Our staff makes every effort to be responsive to community needs. We experienced very low participation in our Saturday clinic last year, with only 338 vaccines given; we saw two to three times as many community members during our Wednesday clinics and opted to hold all the clinics on that day of the week at the hospital this year. We also shifted the time of the Wednesday clinics to earlier in the day as people were often waiting in the lobby at 1:30-2 p.m. for a 3 p.m. clinic start, and numbers waned in the evening as it became dark.
Again, we apologize for any difficulty and urge you to schedule a time to visit your primary care provider for the vaccine if you are in one of the risk categories.

Very sorry to see Saturday clinics changed to Wednesday. Can you explain the need to change? This creates a real problem for me to participate.

A Different Take
Somewhat understandably, a great number of people will be upset with what ended up unfolding (or not unfolding) as Trade Deadline Day progressed, in particular with regard to Tomas Kaberle.
A new twist in the latest "will he or won't he" saga involving a star player for the Toronto Maple Leafs kickstarted a ravenous day of trade rumours, one which ended disappointingly for all those who dared to believe that a King's ransom was just around the corner.
However, things are never quite so simple as they first seem. And where some are seething with rage, others are basking in the glow of a new-found respect for the class displayed today, for all of us to see, by both the player and the general manager in the face of the onslaught which predictably ensued.

A onetime phenom, Miles trying for unprecedented comeback
Story Highlights
LAS VEGAS -- Darius Miles apologized. Could he pause our interview for a moment? His cousin was waiting in the reception area. And then Miles ran across the casino floor of Caesars Palace without limp or hitch.
Miles had just arrived in Las Vegas on Monday to audition for the Mavericks at a private workout the following morning. By all accounts, it went well.
"He was much better than I thought he would be,'' a member of the Mavericks' camp said. "On a scale of 1 to 10, I was expecting him to be 6. But he was a good, solid 8.''
The 6-foot-9 Miles was exhausted by the 90-minute workout. At the end, however, he jumped flat-footed and touched the top of the backboard square.
"I'm physically 100 percent,'' Miles said in his first interview since attempting a comeback unprecedented in this salary-cap era. "I'm not in [basketball] shape, but healthwise and bodywise I'm 100 percent. I've got the explosion, I can move.''
Such details matter because Miles is trying to become the first player to return from an injury that was deemed to be "career-ending'' by the NBA. If he were to sign a new contract and play in 10 or more games this season, his $9 million salary would go back on Portland's books -- though his return would not affect the Trail Blazers as badly as has been advertised.
Miles underwent microfracture surgery to repair his right knee in November 2006. He hasn't played since, and he was released by the Blazers in April after the "career-ending'' judgment was made by an independent medical examiner appointed by the NBA and the players' union.
In recent weeks, Miles has had workouts -- ranging from two hours to less than 30 minutes -- with the Nets, Celtics, Suns and Mavericks, all of whom controlled the terms while asking Miles to compete against other players. For his part, the 26-year-old Miles is looking to join a postseason contender after having never made the playoffs during his six seasons on the court.
"I feel like I'm a starter in this league -- on a lot of teams I really should be a starter,'' he said. "But I would love to go to a playoff team to come off the bench.''
Already assured of making $18 million over the next two seasons from his guaranteed Blazers contract, Miles is seeking a minimal contract with an option to become a free agent after the season -- gambling that he will rejuvenate his value on the court this year. A crucial aspect of any new contract would provide his next team with an exclusion should he reinjure the knee, in which case the team could release Miles without paying the remainder of his salary.
Several factors are working against Miles' comeback. He must miss the first 10 games of next season for violating the league's substance abuse policy. The news of his negative drug test was revealed to every team in a letter from the league, and the information was leaked to The Oregonian. Based on the length of his first-time suspension, teams are assuming that Miles tested positive for a performance-enhancing drug.
In addition, Miles has a reputation for being a poor example to young teammates. "I've heard horror stories about him,'' said an NBA head coach who has never worked with Miles. His notoriety is based on a locker-room confrontation with coach Maurice Cheeks with the Blazers, to whom he had been traded by the Cavaliers in 2004 in belief that he couldn't coexist with LeBron James. (The Clippers traded him to Cleveland two years after drafting him with the No. 3 pick in 2000.) Over his final year with Portland, he was permitted to rehab at the Blazers' facilities but not when his fellow teammates were there.
"I wouldn't label him as a bad guy,'' said an assistant coach who has spent time with Miles in the NBA. "I've wondered if he loves to play. Because he was such a prodigy in AAU, he was always handled with kid gloves, so in the NBA he couldn't take somebody always being on him. But I don't think of him as a 'cancer'-type person in the locker room. I don't think he has the personality to have that kind of impact on his teammates.''

Help us out a bit.
You say it "won't stop running". I get that the tank reaches the height at which it should shut off and the valve doesn't shut off. But I need more info to help you.
When it "keeps running", does the water rise above the top of the overflow riser and go down that riser? Or does the tank fill and "keep running", but the tank doesn't overflow. Big difference in issue depending on the answer to that question.
Give us some more description and we'll help you get it fixed.
(The numbers you describe are the numbers for various flappers that would work in that toilet. Don't go get one of those; we'll give you a better solution if the flapper is the problem.)
Also, look at this fill valve servicing piece and tell me which fill valve type you have, Type A or Type B. Thanks! Link to Fill Valve Servicing Piece

The Epic @Evernote Experiment #edchat @EvernoteSchools
This Fall, I will be doing an Epic Evernote Experiment. I know that I have used the word Epic to describe my previous project (The Epic Romeo and Juliet Project), but this Experiment is truly Epic and I'm a sucker for alliterations.
My plan is pretty simple, use Evernote to share all of my class notes and reading with the students. All assignments will be shared through Evernote as well as any additional resources that I use in class. Seems pretty straight forward.
I have spend the past few days compiling all of the resources I have used in my class for my Honors American Literature, Traditional American Literature and Freshmen English. I have created notes, notebooks and tags for each piece. Units were cross-referenced using tags and the title of the note so students can quickly find what they are looking for on Evernote.
I created four Notebooks for each class; Assignments, Notes, Handouts and Stories. These are the four standard notebooks that will be shared with each student when they arrive to class in the Fall. They will have access to all of their textbook needs on Evernote wherever they are. All additional notes will be placed in the Notebooks as the school year progresses.
In the Notes Notebook, I have placed background information on authors and historical information centering around the various texts and stories we will be reading making sure to use the tagging feature to allows students to pull the information up quickly. I also created notes that have YouTube video read ins of some of the stories. I have created a complete digital backpack for my students. They will have everything they need for the entire year on the first day of school.
This process was a long and tedious one, but I have these notes FOREVER. I was able to upload PDFs and us the Evernote Clipper tool on Google Chrome to quickly and easily create notes and store them in the correct Notebook with the specific tags I needed. This really is a game changer for how my students will be able to access information inside AND outside of the classroom.
This would be an awesome experiment, but it's not quite epic. With that in mind, I have added another level to bring it to epic proportions. E-portfolios. I'm looking for my students to use Evernote Notebooks to store their written work and projects. With the ability to take photos and record audio I envision students being able to take pictures and store their thoughts on various work throughout the year. Long term, this could be great if an entire school district got on board and students from a young age could curate all of their work over the course of their school career. Imagine a 12 Grade student being able to review their writing from 5th grade. I can't think of a better way for an individual to measure growth. I wish I could see my work from grade school.
I'm excited to be working with some other companies who partner with Evernote and want to help with this Experiment. IPEVO is sending over a document camera that, later this summer, will allow images to be directly sent to Evernote. I'm really excited for the chance to look at this document camera. I have heard nothing but good things and I'm always pumped to offer more tools to my students. I envision many of my artistic students using the Document Camera to record their hand drawn work at home and storing it on their Evernote accounts. Their are many different possibilities.
I'm talking with other groups that are interested in being part of the Epic Evernote Experiment. If you are a company and want to join the fun, please send me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com and I will get back to you right away. If you know of a product that would fit in well with my Experiment, please let me know and I will reach out to them. Any new products will be mentioned on my blog as they come in and I look them over.
I'm really excited about the possibilities of creating this environment for my students. Follow the journey on the special page I created. The Epic Evernote Experiment
That's it for now, stay tuned for more fun in the near future.

I would love to trial Evernote as an eportfolio with my third graders. I am worried about no easy access to a scanner or document camera. Any advice?ReplyDeleteReplies
You could use your phone to take pictures to put on evernote and students can use their iPod touch.Delete
This is something I am thinking about too. Are you going to have a shared file with the students, or one public folder that they can pull information from?ReplyDelete
Sounds like a truly epic undertaking, I applaud your ingenuity and risk-taking. In particular the e-portfolio part is intriguing to me, and you've got a good partner there with IPEVO.ReplyDelete
I'm not sure which camera you're lined up to receive, but here's a review I did comparing the two offerings:
Very interested to follow your experiment, but thinking that the amount of pre-populating would be intimidating for other classroom teachers to consider following. I wonder if the notebooks could be populated in a more social-media-type way, easing the load of the teacher and putting more ownership into the hands of the students?
Congratulations again,
Paul YipReplies
@Paul - Thanks for the link! It was a pain to move all of my info to Evernote, but now it's there for life. A ton of hard work now will save me time in the long run. Any class work I can be quickly pushed out to other students or teachers. I could share with different teachers who could copy any notes I have so they do not have to re-create the wheel.Delete
I can create Notebooks that all students could add to it do it would be a socially curated Notebook.
Lots of great ideas. Thanks for comementing! :-)
@Erika - That is a tough one. One or both would be a great way for you to save and share all of their work. There are some great and inexpensive scanners (Doxie) and Document Cameras (IPEVO) that you should look into. Maybe the school, PTO or district could chip to get them. I think it is a great investment for the long term to have one of those to help students save their work for the long run.ReplyDelete
@Jennifer - I have thought about a public link, but I have decided to share them with each student. The public link is an option and I will consider it if sharing each notebook is too much work. I'll keep everyone posted!ReplyDelete
I'm certainly not there and I applaud all your hard work. It seems like almost all we do could be done from Evernote as long as we can find the time to organize years and years of paper into a digital form.ReplyDelete
This summer I spent numerous hours digitizing four drawers in a file cabinet. I'm still working on it and hope to someday be where you are.
I'm currently working on an ebook for my students (probably 30% complete) to show them how they can personally use Evernote for school. I'd love to share it with you. If you're interested, send me an email at firstname.lastname@example.com. Keep up the good work! I love your blog.ReplyDelete
Would you be able to pull this off if most of your students did not have tech with internet access in the classroom or at home?ReplyDelete
I too am trying to re-invent the way my students create their own portfolios. I do have the ability to create a station for students to scan and save in Evernote, but it would require extra steps and I can't for the life of me figure out why it would be worth it. My plan is for the students to keep everything in composition notebooks. We will store the notebooks in a filing cabinet I bought ($15). The notebooks will be available for parent/teacher conferences and they will be walk out the door with the students at the end of the year.
I do plan on having students blog weekly, creating an online presence but not at the rate they will be creating work in the notebooks.
I just don't see where the value is for my classroom.
I am very curious in seeing how your epic Evernote project works out! I assume you are using the paid version of Evernote. I use the free version and I reach my data quota pretty quickly. Will students need to purchase the app as well or will the school pay for it?ReplyDelete
I've also introduced my 9th grade students to Evernote & Springpad, but not utilized it as extensively as yourself. I applaud your efforts and look forward to reading about the outcomes of your epic task.
While I like Evernote & Springpad, I have all of my resources uploaded to Edmodo. Are you using Edmodo as well?
I am a great fan of Evernote although I only dabbled with it this year in my French 1-AP groups. We used our 19 iPods with the same account, different notebooks for each class. It worked fairly well, but I want to go further this year. As I don't use a text book (I make the curriculum and use my Web site for practice, vocabulary, etc), I would like to make Evernote the way to share as much as possible with them. Here are a few questions.ReplyDelete
1. Will students be saving their work
a. under their own accounts, a class shared account, or both?
b. using class devices (computer, pods, phones) or their own?
2. I provide so many resources to my students through my Web site, but the students do not visit it unless I make it a "credit-earning" situation. What will you do to encourage the students to use this massive amount of resources that you have collected and organized?
Here is our first (and very basic) project using Evernote: Students took pictures, wrote sentences, and narrated the slides. The theme: I know it's Spring because...
Looking forward to working in tandem!
Catherine Ousselin
@ Will - Like all teachers, I leverage the resources that I have available and my students have available. I teach in a district with the overwhelming majority of my students have internet access and personal devices to access Evernote. My students will be using a blog for personal writing and Evernote will be used for class notes, assignments, secondary materials and as an e-portfolio. I will have document cameras and scanners for student who want to scan in their work they have done by hand. I just want to provide options to students who still might prefer to do things by hand.ReplyDelete
I have an idea of the value, but I really want to see what it can do, which is why I am calling it an experiment. I want everything to work out perfectly, but rarely does that happen for teachers. I will tweak lessons, learn from mistakes and hopefully grow along the way. That's why I try new things.
- Nick
@Catherine - Here are the answers to your questions.ReplyDelete
1. a & b - Students will be using a class set of iPads to use their personal Evernote accounts to take notes and store whatever information they feel is important to them.
2. I have had the same problem with my class website. Kids do not go there and neither to parents. Giving them access to the materials on their Evernote account that they will be using for an e-portfolio will at least have them using the same tool for different things. They are more likely, in theory, to look at the info if they are already there.
At the high school level, I cannot make the kids drink after I get them to the pond. I can teach them about the importance of reviewing the material and saving their notes, but it is up to them to use the tools I provide. I will tell them that the information will only be available on Evernote and it is their responsibility to find it and utilize it.
Thanks for sharing what you are doing with Evernote. The more we all share the different ways we use the same tool, the better we will all be and our students will benefit as well.
- Nick
I started using Evernote at the start of the year, and I would recommend it to everyone. It started off with just slowly exploring it, and seeing what i can do with Evernote. Quite soon I introduced it to my senior history class as a tool to use for research assignments. I was able to share notebooks with them with websites, pdf's and any helpful materials that they could use. Now about 80% of senior students are using it and they are excited by it. Last week I signed up for the Premium membership, and did a training session for some of my colleagues. More and more people are using it now. Next is finding ways ti integrate it in my classes and to meet the curriculum requirements here in Australia. I'll be following your project closely,a s this is exactly what I want to do with my students. Thanks,JacquesReplyDelete
Are you worried about bumping up against the free limits on Evernote? I was thinking of doing something similar in my quest to become paperless, but I am afraid they'll hit the caps pretty quick.ReplyDelete
I'm doing a very similar thing with my third grade classroom this year, especially the e-portfolio part. It probably won't be extensive, but like you said, they will be taking the first steps to learn a "lifetime" technology. We just got ipevos as well and I have a scansnap scanner to help the process along. I'll be interested in hearing how your project progresses.ReplyDelete
Nick, I really like the idea. How did you choose Evernote over say google sites combined with docs or something like this? Would love to hear about other platforms you considered, and then your eventual choice.ReplyDelete
Good luck, and looking forward to hearing more about it.
I have a class set of iPads that I will be using in class in the Fall. Google does not play well on the tablets and a majority of my students have Apple based products. so Evernote made sense because it plays well on Apple AND Android devices. That was a big factor for me in making the decision.
I also like the ability to download your notes as well. This allows the users to study or reviw information when they do not have access to the internet. This is true for students who travel for sports and other events.
I personally love Evernote and my familiarity with the app was important. I wanted to present a tool I knew well so I would be able to address any questions the students, parents and other staff might have about the Experiment.

My 8th grade English class used Evernote with much success this summer in preparation for our 1:1 iPad program. Setting up shared folders allowed us to go paperless which has been awesome. Good luck with your endeavors! Evernote is truly a wonderful tool.ReplyDelete
above comment is from me, Billie Napoleon :)ReplyDelete
Thanks for introducing me to Evernote! I homeschool my 3 kids and had been in the process of planning the school year when I came across your blog. After some additional stalking on twitter, I just have to say, you've been a great help! I've transferred all of my plans into Evernote and will be following your experiment closely. I love the Internet!!ReplyDelete
Hey - I cannot say enough about how much I love Evernote. It has revolutionized my organization as a teacher. I am impressed by your epic endeavor and am contemplating something similar this year with my English 10 students. A few questions for you :ReplyDelete
1) Do Free accounts allow students to share notebooks with you and/or their classmates? Would you be able to modify or only view?
2) What benefits do you see with sharing class notes via Evernote versus posting to a class wiki?
Thanks and good luck!
@AHolliday - I hope this answers your questions.ReplyDelete
1. You can share Notebooks with Free accounts, but you need Premium accounts to edit a Notebook shared with you. If students created a shared Notebook for a project so they could all store their ideas as different notes in the notebook, they would all need the Premium accounts.
2. Class Wikis can be nice, but Evernote works well across al platforms as an App and web browser. Students are in an app based culture. Also, with a premium account, students can download notes so they can be viewed on their devices without internet access. That's a huge bonus. For my current set up in my classroom, Evernote makes the best sense. For others, Wikis might work best.
I hope this answers your questions. Let me know if I can help you in any other way.

Nothing wrong with trying new things. I am by not a very organized kind of guy anyway so using tools like this isn't something I tend to do. Unfortunately I am also pretty sure that if the kids don't have an opportunity to use a tool like this with me, it won't happen in school. :(
BTW I picked up a LiveScribe pen and it tried it out by taking notes at youth camp last week. That thing has some definite potential!
Great article and I love how you are using Evernote in school. I love Evernote and use it for many things and always show my students Evernote at the beginning of the year and encourage them to use it.ReplyDelete
Here's my blog post about Evernote, how I use it, and resources for education about Evernote.
Thanks so much for writing this post. I am about to use Evernote with our high school students. I am very excited (won an Evernote premium for my students) for this opportunity from Evernote with my students. Reading your blog and the comments has given me new insight to uses.ReplyDelete
So I wanted to say a big "thanks" and have a great year.

Like A Good Book
Today: Tom takes a long, hard look at his stack of cookbooks.
I used to read a lot of cookbooks. Not in the literary sense; no, I simply read them for the recipes and then tossed them back onto the stack. I feel guilty about this past -- whenever I read a novel I usually skip all the preliminary stuff too. No preface, no foreword, no nothing. I go right to chapter one, or in the case of a cookbook, the first recipe. When one of the first novels I remember reading gave away the story in the first few pages of the foreword, I distinctly remember thinking, "I won't do that again." So it has become habit to just skip to chapter one.Read More »

Source Naturals Daily Essential Enzymes Digestive Aid 500 mg - 240 Capsules
Source Naturals Essential Enzymes is highly effective because it is a Bio-Aligned formula that contains a wide array of enzymes that break down proteins, fats, milk sugars, fiber, and carbohydrates in a wide pH range. Source Naturals Daily Essential Enzymes aids the body's natural digestive process, maximizing the body's utilization of the nutrients in the diet while decreasing digestive discomforts. Source Naturals Daily Essential Enzymes is now available in convenient blister packs that can be used for meals outside the home. Each capsule of Source Naturals Daily Essential Enzymes contains 500 mg of an all-vegetarian, broad spectrum blend of digestive enzymes.
As we age, hydrochloric acid and digestive enzyme secretion both decline; there is a natural need to replenish the body's digestive enzymes. Add to that the many additional factors - poor eating habits, inadequate chewing, "eating on the run," and over-consumption of alcohol - that contribute to digestive problems.
Leaders of the Wellness RevolutionSource Naturals was created in 1982 by C.E.O Ira Goldberg to support each individual's potential to enjoy optimal health. At that time, the kind of nutritional formulations he envisioned – for the maintenance of well-being and the enhancement of life – simply didn't exist. The idea of combining many nutrients, herbs and nutraceuticals in one formulation, though common today, was then a rarity. Source Naturals pioneered the concept with Wellness Formula, now the industry's #1 immune support product. Source Naturals subsequently introduced numerous award-winning formulas, recognized for their excellence in independent surveys and nutritional analyses. In addition to Wellness, these award-winners include Life Force Multiple, Mega-Kid Multiple, Inflama-Rest, the Skin Eternal line, Higher Mind, Essential Enzymes, Male Response, and more.
Other Ingredients: gelatin (capsule), calcium sulfate anhydrous, stearic acid, colloidal silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate.
Each capsule contains 500 mg of an all-vegetarian, broad spectrum blend of digestive enzymes.
Hypoallergenic: contains no yeast, dairy, egg, gluten, corn, soy or wheat. Contains no sugar, starch, salt, preservatives, or artificial color, flavor or fragrance.

Crazy Minds & Silly Stupid Love
Heart-warming, yet comical love story between two Forks High School students; Edward & Bella. She doesn't want to let him in, and he just can't keep his inexplicable feelings for her at bay, but an unexpected truth threatens to tear them apart. AH, AU. (Has adult rating because of strong language and sensuality in later chapters.) Preview: "Yes, because I can't see myself being with anyone else, but then with you," He sighed, closing his eyes for a moment. "It's like a movie in my head, and I want it. I want it more than anything else, and I want it with you."

"Take me home." I say as James pulls me up off the seat.
"Good choice." He smiles, patting my shoulder and I roll my eyes as we walk silently through the airport.
"You're making the right decision, Bella." He says as we climb into his truck.
"I hope you're right." I murmur, glancing at him from the corner of my eye.
"I am." He winks at me. The truck groans to life as James puts the gear in drive.
"Let's get the hell out of here." He shouts. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Get some sleep, Bella; it's going to be a long ride." James says, patting my knee.
"Thank you." I mumble. My eyelids fluttering closed.
"For what?" He asks curiously. I didn't answer as sleep took me.
"Bella, wake up. You're home." James murmurs, shaking my shoulder slightly. I jumped, startled, glancing around to notice we were parked in front of Charlie's house. Oh shit! Charlie is going to kill me.
"How did you know where I live?" I wonder, narrowing my eyes at him. James stared at me stunned.
"Good guess, I suppose." He shrugs. "Right," I mutter as I climb out of his truck.
"Ay, text me sometime," James calls, handing me a slip of paper.
"Alright, I'll see you around then."
"You better." He calls before pulling away. I turned to face the house to see Charlie burst through the front door almost taking the door off its hinges.
"Where the hell have you been, Bella? I had search party's out looking everywhere for you, but I had no way of knowing where you could have run off to. Do you have any idea what you just put me through?" Charlie is furious, beyond furious. I was as good as dead.
"I was at the airport." I admitted, biting my lip.
"The airport?" Charlie exclaims, "Why the hell were you at the airport, Bella?" He demands, outraged. He was not going to like this at all.
"I was going to go to Jacksonville." Charlie's expression went from rage to hurt. I'm so sorry, Charlie.
"Do you want to go back and live with Renee in Jacksonville? Is that what this is about?"
"It's complicated, Dad, I'm sorry; I don't have anything to say for myself."
"You're ground, Bella . . . for the rest of your life." I could hear the disappointment in his voice.
"Okay." I said, walking past him towards the house. I hear Charlie's footsteps follow quickly behind me.
"Can I trust you enough to let you stay home and not leave the house when I leave, or should I just call a babysitter?" Charlie asks sardonically as we walk into the house. Oh, they must have called him at the police station. Hmm, wonder why.
"I'll be fine here, and I won't leave." I said quietly, trying not to push him.
"How the hell am I supposed to believe you won't leave this house as soon as I'm gone?" Charlie questioned.
"Where else am I going to go?" I ask, shrugging my shoulders as it suddenly dawned on me that I truly had nowhere else to go. Charlie sighs.
"If this happens again you're going back to Jacksonville to live with your mother." Charlie mutters before slamming the front door shut behind him. I slumped onto the couch exhausted.
I'm beginning to wonder if I would have been better of moving to Florida with Renee and Phil. I like Forks, and its easy living with Charlie, but living here doesn't seem all that wonderful anymore. I snagged the small piece of paper from my pocket and glanced at the numbers scribbled on the page as I dialed the number.
"Yo, how was the flight?" Huh?
"James, its Bella." I answered.
"Oh!" He uttered.
"Who did you think it was?" I implored.
"Someone I know. Don't worry about it. So, how much trouble are you in?" He asked, seeming genuinely interested.
"Heaps, I'm grounded for life."
"Ouch. Well, maybe next time you'll think before you act."
"What are you-my father?" I retorted.
"Hell no, I'm just trying to be the wise-guy," He laughed, "Fuck! Ay, can I call you back? I just got another call I have to take." James spoke hurriedly.
"Yeah, sure," I replied, bewildered.
"Later, Bellatrix." Bellatrix? I scowled at my phone as I shot up off the couch.
"Shit!" I cursed, startled by a sudden loud knock at the front door. I ignore the knocking as I walked into the kitchen and opening the refrigerator to find something to eat. When was the last time I ate again? Yesterday afternoon was it? The knocking at the door was becoming more persistent and louder.
I swear to God I am going to kill whoever is standing behind that door, I thought as I hurried to the door.
"What the fu-" I was caught off—mid profanity—by the untimely sight of Alice Cullen standing at my doorstep. Wonderful!
"Hi, Bella" She greeted cheerfully.
"Hey, Alice," Alice arched an eyebrow at my tone.
"Guess what?" She beamed, ignoring my lack of response to her unexpected appearance.
"The apocalypse is coming?" I guessed with heavy sarcasm. Alice glared at me.
"No, Bella! Emmett and Rose are getting married—in Italy!" She squealed, clapping her hands excitedly.
"Fascinating," I replied indifferently as I returned to the kitchen to find something to eat.
"And you're on the invitation list. Emmett and Rose demand your attendance, as do I." She continued, looking hopeful.
"Alice, I can't go." I admitted, quietly. Alice stared at me skeptically.
"And why not?" She demanded. She was not going to be a happy camper in a few seconds.
"First of all, I am grounded indefinitely, and I can't afford to go to Italy." Her eyes narrowed, questioningly.
"What did you do?" She asked warily. I was surprised she didn't already know.
"I kind of, almost, took a one-way flight to Jacksonville—Florida." Alice sighed, apprehensive.
"Because of my brother?" I stiffened. "He's wasn't the only reason. I had several reasons why I wanted to leave." I corrected.
"Well, obviously you didn't go because you're still in Forks and standing under Charlie's roof, so what happened?" She wondered, seeming overly curious.
"Someone talked me out of it." I said, trying to evade the subject.
"Can I ask who?" I look at her for a moment, debating.
"A friend," I decided, shrugging casually.
"Jacob Black?" She guessed.
I scowled. "No." Alice is silent for a long moment as I heat up some left over spaghetti from the other night.
"Bella, do you want to go to Rosalie and Emmett's wedding?" She asked seriously.
"I do, but I don't want to be there if he's going to be there." I answer honestly.
"Edward?" She clarifies. I nod.
"Is he going, Alice?" I ask after a moment. Alice nods, sympathetically.
"I doubt Charlie would let me off the hook for one weekend anyway." I shrug. He's never been this angry with me.
"You should ask him. Maybe he will." Alice suggests.
"Doubtful, Alice," I say with a chuckle, rolling my eyes.
"When is the wedding?" I ask, curiously.
"A couple weeks after graduation," I forgot that graduation was just two weeks away. The though was overwhelming. It feels like graduation is still months away, but it's only in a matter of weeks.
"Time flies, doesn't it?" Alice chuckled.
"You have no idea."
"I should get going. Esme is expecting me home soon. Please talk to Charlie about the wedding. Everyone really wants you to be there." Alice pleaded.
"I will, Alice." I assured, following her to the door.
"Good! I'll see you soon!" She smiles, hugging me quickly before rushing to her car.
It's Monday, the start of another long and treacherous week of school. Thankfully, I took the day off. Charlie strongly disapproved, but somehow I managed to convince him I needed a mental health day.
It was noon and I was sitting in the on the floor of my bedroom listening to the rain pounding against the roof. The wind was scratching at my window and I could hear the soft hum of a passing car every several minutes. I stared up at the ceiling for no reason really, but to let my mind wonder like it so often used to.
He left you, Bella . . .
After he promised he would never leave your side . . .
You believed his lies . . .
I pushed my fingers into my eyes trying to block it all out and think of anything else. Images flashed in my mind of that day in the airport as I watched him leave. I remember the empty, hollow, look in his normally vibrant green eyes as he muttered one last good-bye, the feel of his lips lingering against my forehead before they were gone.
I sighed as I opened my eyes to the white paint of my bedroom ceiling. I listened to the familiar hum of another car passing and the sound of a car door slamming shut causing me to jump slightly. I pulled myself up off the hardwood floor, wiping the remnants of dust off my jeans.
I walked over to the window pressing my forehead against the cool glass to look out the window. A figure stood in front of the house holding a carry-on bag and a backpack. I blinked several times trying to get a clearer view. My stomach churned and my heart rate spiked as the figure looked up at my window. I covered my eyes with my hand and tried to convince myself that it was only a figment of my imagination, but when I opened my eyes again he was still there.
I couldn't feel the muscles moving in my legs as I hurried downstairs. My fingers trembling as I tried to open the front door. I froze as I stood a few feet away from him. Edward's shoulders slouched as the two bags he was carrying fell from his grip and landed with a 'poof' on the ground. He stood completely still as the pouring rain continued to drench him, but his eyes locked on me.
"Edward, what are you doing here?" I asked, somehow finding the words to speak. The sight of him standing in front of me only several feet away was overwhelming. I thought it was just another illusion, another vivid dream, or just my imagination playing tricks on me, but he was really here.
Edward's hair was in disarray like it always was, but had grown longer than he usually kept it. The pouring rain caused his hair to fall into his eyes, darkening his copper bronze locks. It looked like he hadn't shaved in days. His chin and jaw shaded with stubble. He had on a pair of black jeans and a plaid button up shirt on underneath a black leather jacket. He still looks like a model you would see in Vanity Fair magazine.
"I came here to talk to you." He murmured tentatively.
"I haven't seen you in months, Edward. You left to go to Chicago to be with your mother and you said you would call me whenever you got the chance, but you stopped calling." I reminded him.
"It's been four months to be exact, Bella, and I know." He replied sincerely.
"So, why are you here now, after all this time?"
"I'm sorry I stopped calling. I had every intention to call you, but I just couldn't." He admitted honestly.
"Then, why did you stop?" Edward faltered momentarily, studying my expression.
"Because I didn't know I was going to end up staying in Chicago for as long as I did, and I stopped calling when I realized I had been there for almost a month because I wanted to talk to you in person."
"Well, you got what you wanted, Edward. So, you can just fly right back to Chicago." I told him, shaking my head in disbelief as I turned to go back in the house. I was at my breaking point and I can't even look at him right now. He flew all the way out here to apologize to me for not calling, planning to go right back to Chicago once he made his apology. Who does that?
"My mother past away, Bella," Edward announced from behind me. I stiffened as I was about to open the door, turning around to face him.
"When?" I asked, noticing the rain had stopped.
"Yesterday morning." He mumbled, looking away from me for a moment. I sighed as I walked toward him down the porch steps, standing on my toes as I wrapped my arms around his neck. I was beyond furious with him and so angry I wanted to scream at him for having the audacity to show up at my door, but in that moment he looked so devastated and sad that all I could do was try to comfort him. Edward's arms immediately fastened around my waist.
We stood there for a long time just holding each other comfortingly. No words were needed.
"I'm so sorry, Edward." I whispered as he pulled away from me. Edward nodded slightly, running his hand through his damp hair.
"Is that why you're back in Forks?" Edward narrowed his eyes in confusion.
"Because your mother died and you're here to visit your family?"
"Yes." He answered slowly.
"Then, why are you here?" I questioned, emphasizing the 'here' part.
"You are the reason I'm here, Bella." He replied looking frustrated.
"You explained why you never called and you apologized for it, So what else do you. . ." I cut myself short, and suddenly I understood why he was here. I just don't know why I feel so surprised and . . . hurt.
I cut him off just as he was about to speak. "You don't even have to tell me. I already know what you are going to say," I said, taking a step back from him. Edward tilted his head at me.
"I get it, Edward. You were gone for four months. So much can change in that time. I get it, really."
"What exactly do you get, Bella?" Edward demanded angrily, looking at me as though he was disgusted by me.
"You came here to make a clean break." I said metaphorically. Suddenly he didn't look so disgusted by me anymore. His eyebrows knit together as he realized what I was saying.
"You think I came here because I felt guilty for not calling, but, then to use that as incentive to break up with you?" He asked incredulously. The expression on his face was a cross between bewilderment and looking as though I had just insulted him. I stared at him confused by his reaction.
"You're right about one thing, Bella. I did come here to apologize and explain to you why I stopped calling, but I did not come here to end my relationship with you." He said, correcting my biased assumption.
"You didn't?" I asked doubtfully.
"No," Edward hesitated for a moment, preparing himself for what he was about to say.
"I'm here because I love you," He murmured, never taking his eyes off mine.
"Leaving you was the hardest thing I've ever had to do, but I thought I could let you go. I thought I could let you move on with your life instead of waiting around for me to come back and I thought I could too, or at least try to anyway, but I can't, Bella, I'm too selfish to let you go. I love you too much." He confessed, stepping towards me.
"You love me?" I asked, disbelieving. "Yes, I do." Edward watched me closely, gauging my reaction.
"I want to believe you, but I can't." I whispered.
"Then I'll prove it to you, right now." He said determinedly as he took three strides toward me and cradled my face in his hands before his lips met mine for the first time in months. Edward pulled away after a moment, still cradling my face between his hands.
"What in the hell is–"Charlie yelled, abruptly cut off by the sight of Edward.
"What the hell are you doing here?" He demanded, staring at Edward with threatening eyes.
"I just need to talk to Bella, sir. I promise you will never hear from me again if I can't get the love of my life back." Edward replied brusquely. Charlie's eyes widened at Edward, looking stunned.
"My daughter is the love of your life?" Charlie asked, doubtfully.
"I love her more than anything." Edward admitted, but looked at me as he spoke.
"This is out of my hands." Charlie muttered, waving his hands at us in surrender, shaking his head as he turned to go back inside. Edward and I stood there, standing in the now drizzling rain staring at each other.
"You're still just as beautiful as I remember." He spoke softly as he brushed away a loose strand of hair from my face. I swallowed thickly, not knowing what to say.
"I can't do this," I mumbled, pulling away from him and putting that needed distance between us.
"I need. . .some time or something. I don't know, Edward. We just can't pick up where we left off. Things don't work that way." I said slowly. The look in Edward's eyes was unbearable.
"I've already lost you, haven't I?" I didn't have an answer to give him.
"I'm sorry, Edward." I murmured as I forced myself to turn away from him to back inside.
"No!" Edward yelled from behind me. I turn around, startled, only to find him standing in front of me.
"I can't let you get away this time. I already let you slip through my fingers once. I'm not letting that happen again. I'll give you. . .all the time you need, but I'm not giving up," He let out a ragged breath before continuing. "I need you, Bella." He whispered. I could hear the despair in his voice and it only made it harder to not give in to him.
"I know I've said this before and I meant it, as much as it doesn't seem like it now, but I'm not going anywhere." Edward stared at me, willing me to believe him before he leaned in slowly, asking for permission to kiss me one last time. His lips connected with mine once he got the answer he was looking for. My mouth opened against his as his arms wrapped tightly around my waist pulling me closer to him.
"I'll see you soon." He murmured as he pulled away, giving me one last lingering stare before walking down the porch steps.
"Edward?" I called. Edward turned around slowly, looking at me with questioning eyes.
"Would you like a ride home?" I asked. Edward chuckled, shaking his head slightly.
"Yes, please." He smiled, flashing me his white teeth. We sat in a comfortable silence as I drove, but the air was thick with tension. I could feel his eyes on me as I drove, but I withheld the urge to look at him.
Neither of us moved once we reached his house as I put the gear in park.
"Is it really that bad, Bella?" Edward asked after a moment of silence.
"What are you talking about?" I mutter.
"You can't even look at me right now." He murmured. I turn and look him straight in the eyes. He chuckles bitterly, shaking his head.
"That's not what I meant and you know it." He sighed, moving his eyes back to mine.
"Tell me what I have to do." He implored his expression full of anxiety. I shrug, not knowing how to answer that question. I don't know if I can. Edward's shoulders fall, his green eyes burning into mine.
"Bella, I . . . ," His voice faltered as he pinched the bridge of his nose between his fingers, forcing his eyes closed. Suddenly his eyes return to mine.
"I can't live without you." He confesses. Now, I was the one at a loss for words.
"Yes, you can. You just spent four months in Chicago without me." I replied icily. Edward snorted sourly.
"Isabella," He announced, looking at me with an amused, yet serious expression.
"I spent every moment of every day thinking of you while I was away." He informed me.
"I called you on the phone and I was so sure you weren't going to answer, but you did, and. . .it happened so fast. All I could think about was being able to hear your voice and I didn't even think about what I was going to say to you if you answered, but, then you did and I couldn't find the words to speak." He admitted, sadly. Suddenly, it clicked. That was Edward on the phone that night after I jumped off the cliff.
"That was you." I mumbled, realization hitting me, hard.
"Why didn't you say anything?" I wondered, meeting his eyes.
"You know why," He murmured. "You should go." He added with a sigh. I sighed too because we haven't figured out anything. This is only the beginning.
"Can I call you tonight?" Edward asked after a moment, pausing as he steps out the door. I smile slightly.
"That would be nice." Edward smiled.
"I'm sorry, Bella, more sorry than you'll ever know." He whispered before closing the passenger door and walking away with one last wave good-bye.

Hornets coach predicts Eric Gordon will return Saturday
Hornets coach Monty Williams predicted shooting guard Eric Gordon would make his season debut Saturday against the Bobcats, according to the New Orleans Times-Picayune.
A patella tendon disorder and bone bruise on his right knee that required arthroscopic surgery have forced Gordon to miss all but nine games last season and the first 27 games of this season.
Gordon's right knee has been pain-free since Monday.
"If I had to guess it would be Saturday against Charlotte,'' Williams said before Wednesday night's game against the Orlando Magic. "A lot of that is me, and we want to make sure that we bring him back when he's in a lot better shape. He's spent so much time rehabbing and getting his quad stronger, but we have to make sure he's in a good place before he comes back.''
Gordon's presence should immediately help the struggling Hornets who are one loss way from matching a franchise-record 12-game losing streak set in 1990.
"He changes the way we play with his ability to do a number of things,'' Williams said of Gordon's impending return. "Shooting the ball and attacking the basket and defending certain guys. It will take him not long to get back to the frame of mind that he needs to play and that's always at a high level. But we want to make sure that he has the conditioning level that he needs to play well."

I'm pretty well competent in doing plumbing, electrical, construction, you name it. Bought the faucet as price wise it looked a great buy compared to the local home stores as the price was about the same as a standard name faucet set. Upon arrival the faucet is impressive. The lower section is quite heavy and looks well made. The sprayer retainer has a couple of set screws to hold in a plastic guide for the thing to pivot on. The upper portion is a heavy chrome spring (chrome finish faucet) with a standard looking flex hose run in the middle of it. The sprayer head is very heavy with a good feel to the handle and has a loop that flips over the top of the handle to hold the sprayer on if you want to wash veg etc. without having to hold the handle down to get the spray. Whole thing is very commercial looking. The little flip handle at the end of the faucet allows you to divert the water. You can have both the sprayer and the faucet going at the same time or you can turn the little handle piece at the end of the faucet and gradually turn the water off on the faucet side so only the sprayer works. Flow wise it seems plenty to me. We have good water pressure in our home so don't know if that makes a difference, but the sprayer and faucet run a good jet of water that seems plenty powerful for what we need. Any more and I would think that the water would be hitting whatever you are spraying and splashing everywhere. Still might as it is now. Main control is the handle on the side down low. With the handle tilted out from the faucet the water turns on. Takes a bit of getting used to not to pull it too far and have the water full on. Does not take much range of motion to do. Feels solid and not flimsy. Straight up is cold and if you turn the handle towards you is hot. Turns (going off memory now) approx 90 degrees from straight up. So, worked well for us as we were concerned with the range of motion of some faucets we looked at and felt they would hit the back splash and so we'd have to turn the control more towards the sink to clear. Not a problem with this one as the range of motion puts all action out toward the sink. Hope that makes sense. Both the facet spout and sprayer both pivot so you can put the water where you need. Issues. Not been in that long so longevity I don't feel I can comment on. We felt, for the price, we could install it, use it and if it had a problem that was not in warranty then we were not out any more than a regular faucet. Looked at a Kohler that was approx the same as this one (had a arched tube instead of a spring and a standard looking pull out sprayer hose with a really nice head on it) that was $1000! Felt this was quite a bargain then! Instructions. I'm pretty handy. The instructions are a little vague. Connection of the hot and cold lines - when they are talking about left and right on connection lay the faucet assembly down with the main controller facing the right. The hose connections are angled, but one is more to the left than the other and this is how I hooked it and it works correctly. Turn to the red position on the main controller and the hot water comes on. There are two rubber washers in the kit. Might have missed where they go as all you get is an expaneded view picture, but looked to see and did not really see where they go. I finally (and perhaps not correctly) put one on the connection of the flex pipe with the spring around it to the main unit as it looked like it needed some seal there. Also, maybe need to take a better look, but could not decide which way the spray retainer should be sitting. The retainer is cupped on one side and flat on the other. With it installed with the flat surface up the connection for the spring hose is easy to get too, but then the spring just slides around and can twist at an angle. With it flipped the other way with the cup part up the hose connection is pretty difficult to get in and tighten, but the spring then sits in the cup and is held in place. That is how we have it installed now. Last is a comment on mounting. Instructions are clear enough, but it would have been nice to have something that looked a little more sturdy. Perhaps a threaded collar made on to the base, in a diameter to fit a standard faucet hole, that would slide through the sink or counter and then a retaining washer and nut that could be tightened on so that you had a wider load spread and perhaps less chance of movement within the mount hole. The soap dispenser we bought looks more sturdy of a mount. What the faucet comes with is a threaded hole at the bottom that a 3/8 or so stud mounts in. This and the hoses slip through the hole and then a horseshoe metal retainer (to allow the hoses to pass through) and a rubber seal are what retains everything. You just tighten a small 7/16 wrench nut on it. With the weight of this thing it just seems like it could have been designed more stable. I tightened it as much as I dare (mounting in silestone counter) and it does not move or wabble, but wonder about maybe having to go back in down the road to retighten. Just seems a flimsy mount compared to what it could be. Might be fine though. Hose connections - simple enough, they screw to your hot and cold pipe connections. Only issue I had was the flex lines that come with the faucet were too short. Had to go buy some hoses to extend the length to reach the lines. Guess last word of caution is that this thing is HEAVY! If you are mounting to a sink itself and the gauge is not thick enough you may have issues. Nothing to support this, but just a feeling. Hope that helps. NOTE: so far I'd recommend, but again has not been in long so no longevity comment. Feels pretty sturdy, metal for the spray head, metal base etc. Looks great for the price.
Faucet appears to be already assembled however the installation instructions direct you to take it appart. Even more frustrating is that in the instructions they refer to 'part numbers and part names' but when you look at the drawing, the part numbers do not match up to the part names in the directions. Its almost as though i got installation instructions for another faucet but i didn't. They are the correct. I am thinking of just installing it with common sence but the errors in the installation instructions makes me nervous. It should be a very easy installation as there is only the faucet, 2 hoses and a few washers to install. So far i am not impressed. Also, when i squeeze the sprayer, it squeeks and makes a sound as tho something inside is scratching against the chrome. The faucet seems like a '2nd' or one that didn't pass quality control. My sister has the $1000.00 version of this faucet and the difference is obvious to me. I guess you really do get what you pay for.
OMG, this thing is fantastic! I saw one just like it for $3,200 at a designer showroom. Then I saw this and read alll the positive reviews so I bought it. It came two days later! This faucet was heavy and quality just like the one in the showroom. I had a plumber install since I saved so much on the purchase and he was super impressed with the quality. Everything works great and the water pressure seems double my old one. My wife loves it and it looks fantastic in our super modern house. Maybe the best on-line purchase I have made.
we have only been using it for 2 months and the spring is starting to fall. It looks awkward and doesn't hold the sprayer in place. small black o ring that is one the handsprayer where it is hooked into the rest comes lose everytime you take it in and out and it makes it hard to slip it in and out.
altho i have had so many compliments to the look of this faucet i find that the sprayer has a constant leak. i havent taken it apart to see if there is a gasket i can replace, for the price a leak isnt accecptable.
If I would have wrote this right when i had it installed i would have gave it 5 stars because i loved everthing about it. Now that i have had it a year the hose part leaks even when it isnt set to some out of that spout. Then it stays on until you just cut the sink off because the piece gets stuck. The little knob that turns it from the regular spot to the hose spout comes off now everytime we turn it. For the price of this the complications are not worth it! I do get a lot of compliments about the look of it though. I will also say that for a regular kitchen sink it comes out way to fast most of the time and sprays everywhere and our sink is deeper than most.
I can't believe I got such a high quality piece for the same price as the supposed high end crap they sell at your major DIY stores. Awesome. The one thing you may want to look at closely is the height of this faucet in the specs. It's perfect for my application but know that it's extremely tall.
This faucet looks spectacular in my new kitchen. people go right to it and do not notice the other million imperfections in my diy kitchen. i only wish the jet hose would stick out a little further (when attached to it's hook) so that it does not cause such a big splash at back of sink. but if you use it unhooked, no splash and works great.
I wanted 2 faucets for my sink, more then one cook sometimes this would help. I found this gem one hole 2 faucets wow! the lower control turns everything on, I keep this always on, and adjusts hot and cold. The hand faucet is like most other faucets with the exception of the on off is up top easy to turn on with a tap of the arm when your hands are messy. The sprayer is the greatest, large pans and pots, no problem.
Faucet was awesome when we installed it. Spryer is not overly powerful, but about what you'd expect in this price range. And powerful enough for rinsing pots and sinks. About a month after use the spryer handle would not automatically shut off when you let go. At first sometimes. Now 4 month into use..all the time. We contacted the manufacturer and were asked to send a copy of the original invoice so they could send a replacement part. We did so, and have yet to hear back. In the meantime I have to turn off the water at the main handle for a couple minutes to get the sprayer to shut off.

What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a painful condition affecting the hand and wrist. The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway made up of bones and ligaments at the base of your hand. This tunnel contains the median nerve and tendons of the thumb and fingers. The tendons connect your muscles to your bones while the median nerve provides sensation and feeling to the fingers and hand.
Only the fingers served by the median nerve - the thumb, the index and middle fingers, and part of the ring finger are affected by carpal tunnel syndrome. The median nerve carries signals from the brain to control the feeling and action of the fingers and hand. It allows you to feel temperature, pain, numbness, tingling, clumsiness and controls sweating of the hand.
When ligaments and tendons in the carpal tunnel become swollen and inflamed, they squeeze against the median nerve. This type of pressure on the nerve can injure the hand causing pain or numbness. Sometimes carpal tunnel syndrome can even be triggered by your job and people with this condition often experience difficulty performing simple functions such as fastening buttons, turning keys or unscrewing bottle tops.

I got the idea to make this recipe from my sister Yasmin who isn't a big fan of using breadcrumbs. Fortunately for me, she bought a great quality bag from Eataly to use for her chicken parmigiana recipe, and she happily gave me what was leftover (which was most of the bag). I think breadcrumbs are a fantastic thing to have on hand for anyone looking to pull a quick and easy meal together.
Breadcrumbs add loads of flavor to anything they coat, and they are delightfully simple to work with. Just toss whatever you're eating – porckhops, chicken thighs, fish fillets – with a little bit of egg or oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, coat with breadcrumbs and cook in an oiled skillet until done. Breadcrumbs go particularly well with lemon juice. For another suggestion on how to use them check out my recipe for breaded hake with peppery lemons.
This recipe was an automatic winner for me also because it includes one of my favorite foods to cook in the winter, the sweet potato. Can I just say, my sweet potato only cost .69 cents from the expensive "gourmet" grocery store down the street, which kind of makes me feel like I'm cheating someone when I eat it. Inexpensive, packed with flavor, AND really good for you? Impossible!
