(1956, Douglas Sirk) Psycho Robert Stack and trampy sister Dorothy Malone (in Oscar-winning role) discover it's tough being heirs to a Texas oil fortune, but respectively find solace — or do they? — in bride Lauren Bacall and indifferent family friend Rock Hudson. Approx. 99 min. 35mm.
3:10, 7:20
"Sirk plays it as a conspicuously fierce critique of a particular sector of American society, the disintegrating middle class, but one in which all the sympathy goes to the 'lost' children rather than to the straights. The acting is dynamite, the melodrama is compulsive, the photography, lighting, and design share a bold disregard for realism. It's not an old movie; it's a film for the future."
– Time Out (London)
"A perverse and wickedly funny melodrama... In countless ways visible and invisible, Sirk's sly subversion skewed American popular culture, and helped launch a new age of irony."
– Roger Ebert
(1954, Douglas Sirk) Speed-crazed playboy Rock Hudson widows and blinds Jane Wyman, then becomes a dedicated eye surgeon whose "magnificent obsession" leads him to restore both her sight and life. Approx. 108 min 35mm.
1:00, 5:10
"Fate, irony, faith, altruism, martinis, speedboats, instantaneous blindness, exotic European clinics, secular Christianity, charitable sexuality, and modernist interior design are all ladled onto moralist/novelist Lloyd C. Douglas's rickety narrative frame without so much as the whisper of a suspicion that the whole enterprise ought to collapse even without the added weight of Sirk's soon-to-be trademark Brechtian skepticism. In short, Magnificent Obsession is perhaps the first Sirk film to call to mind Stuart Klawans's memorable description of 'film follies': 'These are movies for people who want to die from too much cinema.'"
– Eric Henderson, Slant Magazine
"An extraordinary film about vision: sight, destiny, blindness (literal and figurative), colour and light; the convoluted, rather absurd actions (a magnificent repression?) tellingly counterpointed by the clean compositions and the straight lines and space of modern architecture."
– Time Out (London)

A tale of two California housing recoveries: Coastal and inland
Justin Sullivan/Getty Images
A construction worker cuts a piece of wood on the top of a home under construction at a new housing development on in Petaluma, California. A recovery in housing is developing in the state, according to UCLA economists. But it's geographically uneven.
For a while now, the economists at the UCLA Anderson Forecast have been arguing that California is experiencing a two-track economic recovery from the Great Recession. The coastal side of the state is doing relatively well, while the inland regions are struggling. Other economists dispute this analysi; they maintain that the recovery is more robust in Northern California than it is in the Southern California.
A key lens to look through when trying to figure out which analysis is right (and really, both have some merits) is real estate. The UCLA Ziman Center for Real Estate and the Anderson Forecast have just released an brief report on the housing situation, written by economist Jerry Nickelsburg. He notes that prices appear to be moving up in California:
The aggregate California home price statistics are encouraging....The S&P Case-Shiller
Index for San Diego, San Francisco and Los Angeles is the highest it has been since June 2011 and the median sales price is now the highest since 2008.
Could California handle a downturn in exports?
Brad Racino
The Port of Long Beach, together with the neighboring Port of Los Angeles, are critical hubs for California exports.
It's not really correct to do this, but you can compare the economy of California to the economy of an entire country. If California were a country, it would be the world's ninth largest, at about $2 trillion, according to some data compiled by the LAEDC. This sounds great — Bravo, Golden...Nation! — but as we learned from the most recent UCLA Anderson Forecast, released this morning, this means that global economic events can affect California more than other U.S. states, and even entire U.S. regions.
This from Anderson Forecast economist Jerry Nickelsburg's contribution to the report, "California Exports: How Much Do They Matter?", in which he considers the impacts, both positive and negative, that exports have on the state economy:
How sensitive is the California economy to changes in the world economy? ...Chinese growth, if not negative, is in retreat. In many parts of Europe, growth is indeed negative as a double dip recession has set in and the future of the Eurozone remains a risk of our U.S. forecast. As it turns out, California has considerable exposure to China and Europe. Together they make up one quarter of all direct exports from the state.
It's dueling economists during forecast week in LA!
Damian Dovarganes/AP
An AT&T technician works on fiber optic cables used for the expansion of AT&T U-verse Internet service in the Chinatown neighborhood in Los Angeles. We have jobs in Southern California, but we're not doing as well as Northern California. Why? The SoCal economy has some structural problems.
Yesterday, Pepperdine University's Graziadio School of Business, in partnership with Beacon Economics, released its outlook for the California economy—exactly one day after UCLA's Anderson Forecast came out.
Beacon principal and founder — and frequent KPCC guest on "Airtalk" and "The Patt Morrison Show — Chris Thornberg gently ribbed the Bruin economists. "Yesterday was the rookie game," he said. "Today in the slam-dunk contest!"
The Anderson Forecast for the U.S., California, and L.A. economies is cautiously optimistic. Pepperdine and Beacon are more bullish.
But there is one big difference between the two forecasts, and it comes down to an analysis on the changing — or not changing — economic geography of the state.
The UCLA economists say that California is two states — the recovering coastal regions and the still-depressed inland areas. A cratered housing market and unemployed construction workers are what's holding back inland California. Meanwhile, in the Bay Area, Silicon Valley is hiring.
UCLA Anderson Forecast: It's getting better in California. Sort of
Kevork Djansezian/Getty Images
Job seekers attend an orientation meeting inside the church during Los Angeles Mission's 11th annual Skid Row Career Fair. The UCLA Anderson Forecast doesn't see the employment situation for big parts of the state's labor force improving for another year.
I normally dig pretty deeply into the economic forecasts that are put out by business schools at places like UCLA and Cal State Fullerton, but this time around the UCLA Anderson Forecast for the second quarter of 2012, I'm going to take a more topline approach. I'm going to chop things up into several posts.
Anderson Forecast Director Ed Leamer noted in his national overview that the U.S. is undergoing some big structural changes. We're shifting from an industrial to a post-industrial world. That means any job that can be outsourced, done by a robot, or accomplished by a microprocessor will be. We can't expect the U.S. economy to provide jobs for under-educated workers any longer. Two bubbles — dot.com and housing — masked our weaknesses.
But things are going to be different in the future. We need to adjust. But it's going to take time. And we shouldn't expect a lot of growth now or in the immediate future. The Anderson Forecast team is predicting 2.4 percent national GDP growth by the end of 2013, which is pretty modest. But we were at 1.9 percent in the first quarter of 2012, after doing 3 percent in the fourth quarter of 2012 but only 1.7 percent on average for the year.
UCLA Anderson Forecast: Don't expect strong growth this year

The UCLA Anderson Forecast released a cautiously optimistic outlook for the U.S. and regional economies.
The UCLA Anderson Forecast just released its second quarterly report for 2012, and the outlook for the U.S. economy is a continued slow recovery from the Great Recession.
At the heart of the report is Anderson Forecast Director and economist Ed Leamer's assertion that we've looking to wrong people to rescue us. Wall Street isn't really improving, and Washington isn't going to create the growth that the country needs. What we need to fix is Main Street.
Leamer said that the dot-com bubble and the housing bubble disguised a broken educational system that isn't preparing workers for good, 21st-century jobs. In California, we've seen this from two sides. In Silicon Valley, the high-tech sector is recovering nicely. But inland California continues to suffer under the weight of unemployed construction workers.

BOISE -- Although President Barack Obama is away at the G-20 summit in Russia, the effort to get members of Congress to support U.S. military action against Syria continues back home. And officials say Obama himself is still involved, making calls to lawmakers from the summit. But, our Idaho delegation is still not convinced a military strike is a good idea.
Idaho Republican Sen. Jim Risch serves on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, and Wednesday in a closed-door meeting, voted against the use of military force in Syria. Thursday, back in his home state, Risch said he wanted to let everyone know why he voted that way and why he will vote against military action again in the full Senate.
Risch says Bashar Assad's use of chemical weapons against his own people last month is the most serious but just the latest in about a dozen other attacks. That has prompted millions to flee Syria. But, while Risch supports humanitarian aid continuing to those refugees, he can't support military action. "The answer is that there are no good answers here. My judgment is that the risk of doing something is worse than the risk of doing nothing."
Risch says the Syrian rebels currently fighting Assad are actually splintered groups, some of whom are terrorists. And he says it would be great if Assad was removed from power but not if those who replace him are terrorists. "The weapons of mass destruction that are present in Syria, would fall into the hands of Al-Qaeda, Al-Nusra, the Muslim Brotherhood, and others."
So he says any military action would merely be to punish Assad and that would destabilize the region even further, and result in the U.S. losing credibility. "Indeed, after the attack, Assad is going to come out from under his rock. He's going to beat his chest and he's going to say, 'I stood up to the American war machine, the biggest, the most powerful in the world, and I'm still here.' In my judgment, I think that hurts our credibility."
Risch says Idaho and America are "war-weary." But, if Assad acts against the U.S., a U.S. ally, or an American citizen, that would change Risch's mind. "The American people will stand shoulder-to-shoulder opposing vehemently, and with everything we've got, if there is any attack on American people, American interests, or allies."
Risch says he believes the Senate will authorize the use of force against Syria, but is not sure about the House, although the speaker has said he's in favor of military action.
Risch says military action against Syria could be even more difficult than the wars against Iraq and Afghanistan, given Syria's powerful friends. He says the Assad regime wouldn't even be standing without Russia and Iran.

JERICHO, NY – Purolator International is adding three branches during the first quarter of 2013, bringing its total number of branches to 33.
Purolator opened another seven new branches during 2012. Offices are scheduled to open soon in Columbus, Newark and Phoenix. The company's on-going addition of regional office expansions is indicative of the surge in demand for logistics experience and expertise in transporting goods between the United States and Canada.
"Purolator International is focused on opening new locations across the U.S. in the top markets for trade with Canada," said John Costanzo, President of Purolator International. "Canada is currently the United States' largest goods trading partner with 19.0% of overall U.S. exports going to Canada in 2011. Purolator offers unmatched service options, border clearance expertise, and understanding of the Canadian market."
"Purolator's growth comes at a time when U.S. business is increasingly looking to Canada as a source of new customers and economic opportunity," said Purolator Vice President for Field Sales and Service Quality John Sweeney. "Near shoring, the returning by U.S. companies of their operations to nearby or neighboring countries brings outstanding opportunities to Purolator."
U.S. goods and services trade with Canada totaled over $680 billion in 2011. Exports totaled $337 billion; imports totaled $343 billion. A recent survey by international business consultants AlixPartners found that 42% of senior executives have already taken steps to near shore manufacturing operations or plan to do so within the next three years.
Purolator International regional offices opened during 2012 are located in:
Baltimore, MD
Charlotte, NC
Denver, CO
Indianapolis, IN
Pittsburg, PA
San Diego, CA
St. Louis, MO

5 ways to hire the right person
In a tough economy, companies can pick and choose among qualified job candidates for that perfect fit. But job candidates who look good on paper can still turn into bad hires.
"A bad hire hurts an organization worse than a good hire helps an organization," says Antonio Vianna, a human resources consultant and instructor in the University of Phoenix MBA program.
Here, he offers five tips on how to hire the right person the first time:
Plan ahead.
"Some hiring managers don't plan ahead for what they want in a job candidate. Instead, they say, 'I'll know it when I see it.' That's a mistake," Vianna says. Managers should develop a detailed job description for the open position and use it to evaluate potential candidates. "You need to have some idea of what the ideal candidate will be beforehand," he explains.
Vianna also recommends planning out every aspect of the interview before it happens. "Find a comfortable and quiet location," he notes. "Have a list of questions and answers prepared that cover the job tasks, the company culture and the office environment." Pay particular attention to how you present company structure, he urges, because not every qualified candidate will fit in.
Have multiple interviews.
"I'm a big believer in conducting multiple interviews," Vianna says. In addition to having the hiring manager and direct supervisors interview job candidates, he also recommends including the potential employee's peers.
"We spend our careers working in teams, so it's important to see how a potential candidate would fit into the team ahead of time," he says. "One bad apple can mess up the whole team." Vianna also suggests conducting second and third interviews in different physical environments than the first interview, like at a restaurant or in another informal setting.
Ask candidates how they'd handle tough situations.
One of the most telling ways to evaluate job candidates is to ask how they would handle complex job situations. "This is called behavioral interviewing," Vianna explains. For example, you might ask candidates how they would work on teams with differing work styles, or how they would solve a potentially catastrophic problem.
"Behavioral interviewing can give managers insight into applicants' experience, honesty and where any skills gaps might exist," Vianna points out.
Find out each candidate's priorities.
A job applicant who is only interested in a steady paycheck is often a bad hire, according to Vianna. "You want someone who has taken a sincere interest in your company and industry," he says. "Those tend to be the most successful hires."
He also believes that good job candidates are motivated by training and personal growth opportunities — not just money.
Make sure the candidate asks questions.
At the end of the interview, a strong job candidate should have plenty of questions to ask, too, Vianna asserts. "If the applicant has no questions about the job, company or work environment," he says, "that's a red flag."

Eddie and Carolyn Hutzler Graham, of Martinsburg, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on April 15, 2012, with a service of renewal and memories at the Fellowship Church of the Brethren. Debbie Miller, a longtime family friend, officiated in the service of vow renewal. Memories were shared with a Power Point presentation. This was followed by a dinner reception at the Heritage Hall in Inwood, with guests from Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and South Carolina.
After experiencing a snow storm on their wedding day, Dec. 23, 1961, Carolyn and Eddie opted for a spring celebration of their 50th anniversary. They were married at the Mt. View Church of the Brethren, in Inwood, by the Rev. Byron Berkey.
Eddie and Carolyn were high school sweethearts and both graduated from Musselman High School. After spending the first five years in the D.C. area, they returned to Berkeley County where Eddie owned and operated a barber shop for a number of years. Eddie retired from Lucent Technology and Carolyn from the 167th Credit Union.

Changing partner too often
May 24, 2010, 05:02:28 AM »
Well besides the obvious of it takes time for a partnership to develop, to the oursider's point of view (ie. for judges), would there be any detrimental effect if a dancer changes partner too often? (ie. a different partner every year)
My partner is dying to compete in latin, which I am incapable of. I specilize in Ballroom and New Vogue, and she's really not a ballroom/new vogue person both self confessed and by other people's observation. There's a new guy (an acquaintance from comp) looking for a girl to specialize latin in, who I think will be for my DP. I don't know if I should let her know this availability.
Do I see our partnership go anywhere? The short answer, NO.

I guess from the outside, it could seem odd if you were doing it a lot. But, you know, you were with your old partner for quite a while, and you can always just say that things didn't work out so you both moved on. I think it's only a problem if it's compulsive partner swapping. Like, you do it every year for 10 years.

well I think this is a learning experience for you. that you must ask the right questions before you enter into a partnership. It is disappointing for you I am sure, but it is still up to you if you want to tell someone, but you have the right to be looking and trying out also.

I think you should let her know, you should have some sort of arrangement that when either you or your partner find a new partner then the partnership ends (i've used partner way to may times in that sentence
). To tell you the truth i really don't think judges care too much, i mean with the amount of competitors there are it would be very hard to keep track of all the couple changes. The only problem i can see with changing often is the fact that you won't be able to build a rapport within the partnership and this will generally affect your learning and growing as a dancer.

IMO? Absolutely. If you care for this girl at all - and it seems you get on well despite the difference in goals - you should be looking out for her best interests, even when - indeed especially when - its not in yours. Thats what being a friend is really about.
Yes, you might loose this partner a bit earlier than you planned - or (out of gratitude) she might dance with both of you till you find someone new (I would hope so) - but the gain will be a person who will value you and trust you. That is no small thing.
Think also on this: if another girl walked into the studio that was perfect for you now - would you change parnters or stick with yours till the end of hte year? If you can honestly say the latter then sure, don't say anything, but if you can not you should do as above.

I just realized I didn't address your actual question - which was not about your partner but about the perception that you change too often. If you moved to a new partner suddenly and dumped this one people might talk. If, however, it was mutual then there would be no stigma at all. If, as suggested, you actually introduced your partner to her latin dream your status as a gentleman woudl (should?) be assured.

Nothing at all to do with any of the above but rather on the subject of changing partners too often, one thing that I notice is that someone who flip flops back and forth or changes partners too often gets a bad reputation after awhile. They are looked upon as untrustworthy and not committed to a partnership. It will be said that yes this person is available but they will dump you when someone else comes along or, they don't care about your part in the partnership but rather what they get out of it. I know of a few dancers up this way who were or are looking for a partner but when I have mentioned their name to a potential partner the potential partner will say only if I can't find anyone else because the reputation of the person as being difficult to get along with or having changed partners too often has given them a black mark on their credibility.

I agree, so that is why like SW they will see out the year, which is a good thing....my sister was like that with jobs...flip flopping to many in the end she had to stay somewhere she did not like to make sure she could get another job, because some employers were not wanting to employ her for the reason for changing jobs too often.

So how often do you think it too often?
I'm sitting at a different partner every year.

Sometimes circumstances cause you to have to change partners and people understand that. Your'e situation SW is different then the ones I am thinking of.
I'm talking about the people that always find the grass greener on the other side. Or, those that do go to the other side then jump back again assuming that the old partner will just be sitting around waiting for them with no hurt feelings. They don't consider the other person's feeling at all. Other ones switch partners because they are so full of themselves they think they deserve better or their partner finally has had enough of them. Many men and women ask for me to keep an eye out to see if there is anyone available for them. For the flip flop / grass is greener / self serving type the prospective people don't want to chance them because they know the person does not commit to a partnership and will dump them in a minute. For the difficult to get along with ones most don't want to have to deal with the drama these people create. I know of three ladies at the Open level that can't understand why they have not been able to attract a partner since they all dance well and have look great. How do I tell them that their poor attitude outweighs the benefits. Nobody wants to be their next victim and guys have told me they will not consider them unless they become desperate, and even then probably not. One has sat on the sidelines for three years and the others one and two. So far, I can't find anyone even interested in trying them out. As soon as I mention their name the men act like I am asking them to dance with a plague victim. Perhaps in their mind they are about as bad.
There have been a few guys that have lost partners one after the other for one reason or another but they have been honourable about it and nobody thinks twice. The partners want to do ten dance and they don't, they want to move up to the next level and the other was not wanting to, the partner moved, the partner found someone more suitable or what have you. I suppose what I am warning people is watch what you do and the reputation you create for yourself. Everyone loses partners or changes partners but it is the reason or how you do it that eventually follows you around. The dance world is small.

Just like in the rest of your life - treat people with care and respect and little else matters. However, if you fail to the most trivial thing will blow up as an issue.

Interesting Facts about Valerie Read
Meaning of Last Name
Read is a surname of English origins, its most likely derivation is from the Anglo-Saxon (Old English) term for the colour red (rēad). The English town of Reading on the River Thames derives its name from a very early English tribal or community group called the Readingas. The Readingas appear to have been named after a chieftain called Reada, "The Red One," with the addition of the element -ingas meaning "the people of." There is a settlement in Lancashire called Read, the name deriving from an Old English term meaning roe[deer]-headland, this may also account for some Read surnames. The earliest recorded use of the name is that of a Leofwine se Reade (Leofwine the Red) dating to 1016. However, this usage would have been as a descriptive by-name as inherited family surnames had not yet become established. A Thomas Read is recorded in 1327; his use of the name Read would have been as a heritable surname. This name is included in the names of the following articles:

Question: I would like a definition of "stowed" in regard to fishing gear while transiting a state marine reserve. A sport fisherman reported he was stopped by a patrol boat at the Channel Islands and told he could have been cited for having his rods in the rod holders. He was told he should have had them in his small cuddy.
It does not seem reasonable to require my buddies and I to "stow" all our rods and reels in my cabin every time we need to make a move across a state marine reserve. Or when we are at an island, we should not be required to drive 6 miles out, then whatever distance across, and then back in another 6 miles at $4 or more a gallon. All of this would be quite a hardship for those of us fishing from private sport boats just to stow our fishing gear when maneuvering around state marine reserves.
Fred H., Anaheim
Answer: There is no requirement for equipment to be stowed under the Marine Life Protection Act laws covered in section 632 of the California Code of Regulations Title 14.
Title 14 of the codes says vessels "shall be allowed to transit through marine protected areas and marine managed areas with catch onboard. Fishing gear shall not be deployed in the water while transiting through a state marine reserve."
Q: My Italian grandmother asked my brother and me to bring home some fresh octopus so that she can make her favorite pasta dish. The only problem is we don't know how to catch them. Can you help us out?Joe K.
A: You will have to be creative on this one. Fortunately, there are no size limits on octopus and the bag limit for each of you is 35. Sport fishing regulations allow you to catch them only by hook and line or with the hands. You cannot catch them with traps or spears. The most common way to successfully catch them in California is by hand while diving with snorkel or scuba equipment. It's also unlawful to use any chemicals, such as bleach, to attempt to disturb octopi from their hiding locations.
Q: Yesterday we collected a few mussels at low tide at Chicken Ranch Beach with the kids (past the Inverness Yacht Club). They are of a decent size, about 3 to 4 inches, and all black. Are they safe to eat?
A: Don't eat those mussels! There is currently an advisory out against consuming sport-taken shellfish in Marin County please see www.cdph.ca.gov/Pages/NR13-009.aspx
A great Q&A about mussel quarantines is located at www.cdph.ca.gov/Pages/MusselQuarantineFAQ.aspx. The California Department of Public Health shellfish biotoxin information line is (510) 412-4643 or toll-free at (800) 553-4133 you can check with them at any time to see whether there are advisories in effect for your area. And finally, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) posts advisories on the CDFW website at www.dfg.ca.gov/marine/healthadvisory.asp.
Q: I was wondering if it is legal to use electronic calls for animals and birds out of season for things such as bird watching or scouting? I have heard yes and no from different people, so I want to clarify. Also is it even legal to call with non-electronic calls out of season?
Taylor F.
A: Yes, this would be legal as long as you do not have any methods of take with you. The prohibition against electronic calls only applies when "taking" birds/mammals.
Carrie Wilson is a marine environmental scientist with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife.

I was just reflecting on some of the projects that have been sponsored in the Fashion School over the last couple of years, and I came back across this great video about Shannon, Fashion Merchandising student, whose product concept was selected for production by Wrangler through a live project hosted in Trista Grieder's Product Development […]

For several reasons, it's hard to see the modern secular movement as a passing phase that will be gone tomorrow. The movement may level off, and even experience ebbs and flows over time, but the emergence of seculars resulting from the modern secular movement is highly unlikely to reverse itself, and the impact of that emergence is likely to be lasting and profound. Here are five factors indicating that the contemporary trend of secularity should have long-term traction:
1. The secular demographic won't disappear
Secular Americans are a broad tent that includes not just atheists and agnostics, but millions of Americans who are simply not religious. These are good, taxpaying citizens who are generally skeptical of grand theological claims, who wouldn't dream of spending Sunday morning sitting in church, and who tend to see church-state separation as important. These seculars have always been around, and there is no chance that they are suddenly going to disappear.Indeed, if the secular movement seems like a new phenomenon (and it is), that's because many of these nonreligious and nontheistic Americans have only recently begun to appreciate their secular identity. By remaining in the closet for decades as the religious right was growing into a major political force, seculars inadvertently helped create a landscape ripe for anti-intellectualism and disastrous public policy. The modern secular movement can be understood as a response to that mistake, taking root as seculars increasingly realize that they must be "out" and visible in order to fight back against the religious right.

DD is just about 12 months old. She is a mix of all the kinds of baby temperaments. I can't pigeon hold her to just one (easy, shy, spirited). She is extreeeemely attached to Mama. As of the last month, she hates when Daddy comes near her because it usually means we will be separated. She breaks his heart every day. This is especially pronounced at bedtime. We used to take turns putting her down at night, and now she wails as though I've dumped her in a garbage can alone if I leave her in bed with Daddy.
Here's the thing, I have been studying to become a birth doula, and took the workshop in February. I would really like to continue pursuing this, but I've had to put it on hold since her behavior changed. She refuses to take the bottle anymore. She refuses to take the binki, too, and slaps it away with great disdain and a loud "NO!" even in the wee hours of the morning. She also began to pacify on my breast recently and we went through hell trying to get her to stop doing that. No she nurses every hour on the hour at night.
I read the No Cry Sleep Solution and the No Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and Preschoolers. I refuse to use CIO, but it's weird for me to be considering any kind of sleep training at all. We are very pro attachment parenting, and knew that when we made the decision to co-sleep, we were committing to see it through for many years. Now that I want to be a doula, I am wondering if there is ANY way to get her in a crib in her own room and night weaned! I feel shame admitting it, but that's how badly I want to be a doula, and I just don't know how I could possibly be gone for 24+ hours and have her be okay.
Is it too late? Should I just drop the idea of becoming a doula for the next few years (forfeiting the $1000+ I spent on the doula workshop -- class + travel and lodging, and have to take it over again?)
Or should I go for it, just attempting to do 3 births in the next few years to get my certification, but knowing that those 3 nights would be absolute hell for both DD and DH?
OR, should I sleep train her, get her in her own crib, her own room, and try to lessen the amount she eats at night, and stop the sucking to sleep association so that other people can help put her down?
This is really killing me. I just don't know what to do. I admit that I fear if I don't pursue doulahood now, I won't do it in a few years and I will have just failed at finishing yet another thing I started.
How do I make this decision? Any advice on getting the most extremely attached, sensitive, semi-high needs toddler to accept these changes? Could trying to sleep train her be more harm than good?!?!
I need totally honest, opinionated, straight up, truth...
Thank you so much for your time.
