ok...so i recently decided to adopt a newborn baby girl. She is due May 16, 2012 and I'm scared to death. I don't even know where to begin when it comes to preparing for a new baby. All I know is I want to love her, protect her, and help her become a beautiful person. God willing that will happen. If anyone has any advice, please feel free to post it. I can use all the advice I can get. Thanks...
Wow! What exciting news! I am so happy for you. My best advice is to learn everything you can, read, look at the website, ask questions, quiz your friends and family and then when you get her in your hands spend time just loving being a mom. What a journey you two have ahead!
Congrats :) -Jess
SLEEP NOW LOL ALL THAT YOU CAN !! My baby boy just turned a year and hes a hand full... everything will turn out fine. buy pampers!!! alot!!! you can never go wrong with extra dipers lol
Sounds like you already have a great head start--just wanting to love her and protect her and help her is a great way to begin your life together. Until she is born, try to read up about what to expect during the first year...find a great pediatrician who you can call and ask advice when you need it and look into joining a support group for adoptive parents. Surround yourself with a great network of supportive people who will love and help you raise this little girl and you'll do great!
How wonderful that you are adopting! We just brought home our baby boy who was also adopted and placed into our arms when he was 2 days old...he is now 2 weeks! It is an amazing experience, being a mom. Many, many things will come naturally, so relax and enjoy her. dont stress the little things like a clean house or for that matter clean clothes on yourself! All that matters in those first few weeks is that baby is warm, fed and loved, and I have no doubt that she will be! Best of luck to you!
Congrats!! So thrilled for you and your new daughter to be. :-) Your little girl will be quite lucky to have a mom like you who wants the best for her. The basics are all a baby really needs...food every couple of hours, clean diapers, the occasional bath, warm clothes and a safe place to sleep. Other than that, just love on her and snuggle her. Make sure you have a pediatrician picked out for her that you can call with baby care questions and you can always come on here as well! Have a few friends who agree to be your "on call" person when you are up against a wall and need help quickly to answer your baby questions!

While Remoraid appears a bit fishy at first, a closer look reveals that Remoraid is an interesting Pokemon. Amazing attacking stats and Speed mean that Remoraid has the potential to eat teams up. Being a Water-type helps in this regard, as its STAB has nice coverage. It gets even better when you realize that Remoraid has access to the most powerful Water-type move in existence, Water Spout, as well as Waterfall to take care of special walls. Combine this with excellent coverage moves such as Ice Beam, Seed Bomb, Fire Blast, and even Gunk Shot, and one realizes that Remoraid can be an immense threat to unprepared teams. If there was one thing holding Remoraid back from greatness, it would probably be faster Pokemon and users of priority; to put it bluntly, Remoraid has the defenses of a wet paper bag. Overall, Remoraid is a great Pokemon with few drawbacks, so definitely try it out and be prepared to face it.
Remoraid is one of the fastest users of Choice Scarf in Little Cup and can blow through unprepared teams thanks to Water Spout, which sits at a cool 150 Base Power when Remoraid is at full health. However, if Remoraid manages to lose a significant amount of its HP, Surf is there to provide consistent damage. Fire Blast allows Remoraid to demolish Ferroseed and Croagunk, who is immune to Water Spout thanks to Dry Skin, on the switch in. In the final moveslot, Hidden Power Ground lets Remoraid hit Croagunk and Chinchou, both of whom can take a Water Spout and hit back hard with priority and STAB Electric-type attacks, respectively. Hidden Power Grass is also an option in the final moveslot, allowing Remoraid to hit defensive Water-types, who would otherwise wall this set, hard.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
While Remoraid can use special attacks easily, it can also hit physically thanks to its Base 65 Attack, excellent physical movepool, and access to Hustle, which gives its attacks a huge boost. Waterfall is Remoraid's STAB move, hitting very hard thanks to Hustle. Return, when combined with Waterfall, gives Remoraid almost perfect neutral coverage, only missing out on Ferroseed and Frillish. Seed Bomb allows Remoraid to easily take on Water-types, namely Frillish with Water Absorb, who can wall Remoraid. In the final moveslot, Water Spout does massive damage, even without any investment. However, Fire Blast is another interesting option, allowing it to maul any Grass-types switching in. It's accuracy is also not affected by Hustle, which is a big plus given its fairly shaky 85% accuracy.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Thanks to Hustle and its powerful special movepool, Remoraid can easily become a mixed attacker. Waterfall is the main physical STAB here, smashing into special walls aiming to take a Water Spout. Likewise, Water Spout is Remoraid's main special STAB, and should be used early on for greater effect, laying waste to anything that doesn't resist it. Seed Bomb is used in the third slot to take care of any Water-types trying to tank the two aforementioned attacks. Lastly, Fire Blast easily dispatches Grass-types such as Ferroseed as well as Croagunk, which can take every other attack Remoraid can throw at it.
A Naughty nature gives as much power to Remoraid's Attack as possible, as it has no investment. There is no need for investment thanks to Hustle, which gives a nice boost to Remoraid's physical attacks. Max Special Attack and Speed EVs give as much power to Water Spout as possible, as it is Remoraid's main attack.Team Options & Additional Comments >>>
Other Options
Remoraid has access to Acid Spray, which can cause a lot of switches due to the severe drop in Special Defense it brings to the target. However, Remoraid is better left outright attacking than setting up due to its frailty. Remoraid has a wide movepool which it can use, including Signal Beam, Psychic, Bullet Seed, Charge Beam, and Rock Blast. However, it will have a tough time fitting any of these on a set due to the coverage Remoraid needs. Remoraid has the potential to run a set with 3 attacks and Substitute along with a Life Orb, though it doesn't have the bulk to pull it off effectively. Life Orb along with Thunder Wave is interesting as well, hitting anything switching in with paralysis and allowing Remoraid to outspeed the target. Finally, Flamethrower is a good option over Fire Blast anywhere it is mentioned if one feels that accuracy is an issue.
Checks and Counters
When considering a check to Remoraid, one must keep in mind the just how powerful it is and how much coverage it gets. Pokemon with a Water-type immunity and decent defenses will usually be the best counters to Remoraid, seeing as it will be using Water Spout most of the time. Lileep is an excellent example, carrying the ability Storm Drain, which nullifies Water-types attacks. Lileep can easily take out Remoraid with Giga Drain. Slowpoke, while lacking Water Absorb, is also a fine counter to Remoraid because it is only 4HKOed by Water Spout and 3HKOed by Hidden Power Grass. This allows it to use Slack Off and do whatever it pleases. Munchlax also works in this case, and though it is 3HKOed by Water Spout, it can KO Remoraid with ThunderPunch, and has Pursuit if the fish decides to switch. Ferroseed also gets a mention for resisting every move that the physical Choice set carries. If you don't carry a defensive option listed above, you can still take care of Remoraid. Priority moves are usually the way to go offensively, as they bypass Remoraid's Speed and take advantage of its frailty. Status moves can also cripple Remoraid, as they will often leave it either weak or slow, making it easy prey for revenge killers. As a final note, Dragon-types resist every move on the Mixed Choice Scarf set, allowing them to come in and go to town.

By the time most of the crowd arrived Sunday at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum, TCU had put themselves in a 14-0 hole against Prairie View A&M.
For the following 14 minutes, TCU would hold the Panthers to just two points and no field goals.
"Any time you play a team with that kind of length and that kind of athleticism, and they play a zone, it takes you out of rhythm," Johnson said. "To a lot of people the game was ugly, but to me, that's how we're going to have to play to succeed moving forward."
The Frogs took a late lead in the first half behind nine points from junior guard Jarvis Ray.
Adrick McKinney fouled a three point shooter with under a minute to play to give Prairie View a 20-17 lead heading into the locker room as the Frogs shot just 25 percent from the floor.
The second half brought more of the same. The Panthers came out of the locker room as the aggressors. The Panthers grabbed a seven point lead at the first media timeout.
Again the TCU defense tightened. With 8:30 to play, the Frogs would again tie the game 32-32.
Just two minutes later, Kyan Anderson hit a three pointer to give TCU the lead.
It was Anderson who's energy and passing would carry TCU down the stretch. With under one minute to play, Anderson found DeVonta Abron on the block who converted a layup to give TCU a 42-35 lead.
From there, Garlon Green would hit two free throws to give TCU a 44-39 victory.
Forty-four points was the lowest scoring total for the Frogs in a win since 1980.
"When you lose a guy with the impact of Amric Fields, it hurts you in points; it hurts you in rebounds, and it hurts your rotation," Johnson said. "The start of the game was not on the players, it was on me, starting in a zone. I got away from doing what I always do being aggressive."
Abron echoed Johnson's sentiment about stepping up in the absence of Amric Fields.
"We know when one of our soldiers went down, we have to come together and pick him back up," Abron said. "We know that he's with us in our hearts. We have to just keep playing hard."
Jarvis Ray led TCU with 13 points, and Devonta Abron had his best game as a Frog, tallying 10 points to go along with eight rebounds.
"I just didn't want to give up on plays. Like coach says, take no plays off. Play like it's your last game. I just know that when it's my time to get out there to help my teammates, I know what they expect from me, and I know what I gotta do."
But for head coach Trent Johnson, he again praised the play of senior guard Nate Butler Lind.
"I can't say enough about Nate now," Johnson said. "Nate Butler does so much that you don't see in the stat sheet in terms of setting screens, trying to move the ball, passing up shots...He is competing at a high level."
The Frogs held the Panthers to just 28.3 percent shooting from the floor and forced 18 turnovers, compared to just five assists tallied by the Panthers.
"We were getting a lot of open shots," Jarvis Ray said. "We just have to knock them down. They weren't falling at first, but we got in our rhythm...and started to pull away."
TCU's next game is against Navy on Tuesday at Daniel-Meyer Coliseum.
Head coach Trent Johnson knows his team must take every opportunity to continue improving.
"We have to come back tomorrow at 7:30 a.m. In the morning and practice. We're going to need everybody."

"Absolutely HORRIBLE! It took 10 days to get them to ship my purchase. The item was finally sent after I complained, in a large box without any packing material. The item was not particularly fragile, but in these conditions of course it was damaged. I did not return it because I simply do not want to ever deal with these people again. Don't buy here!!"
"Terrible!!! I ordered a specific item and color. Made notE of the color in comments box. Got different color. When I called, was told that they send "assorted colors" and I could send back when it arrived. I tried to stop the order. "You can't; it has gone to the shipper. When it arrives just send it back." It arrived, and was sticking out of the box. When returning an item you must have the return label inside the box. I retreived the label and resealed the box. When I tried to return it, the shipper told me it was going to be $XX.xx- DOUBLE the worth of the item AND postage and if I had NOT OPENED THE BOX, IT COULD HAVE BEEN RETURNED FOR NOTHING". Be WARNED......DO NOT ORDER FROM OZBO. Wrong item, wrong color and enormous amount of return shipping. bE WARNED!!"
"If you decide to buy, DO NOT USE OZBO. Michelle at OZBO provides horrible service stating she is the only one that is there and the manager Josh comes and goes as he pleases since he's the manager. After telling them I found it cheaper and to cancel the order, they still shipped it out. And when the items were received damaged they refused to provide a prepaid shipping label for return. Buyer Beware"
"Do not expect expedited service even if you pay for it. They claim to ship most orders within 24 hours but mine took 4 days and then was shipped USPS. they initially sent me a confirmation that my order had been delivered (to Pennsylvania- I live in Nevada). I exchanged 11 emails with Michelle who blamed Amazon for everything. I requested a refund of $4.44, the difference between regular shipping and the expedite that I paid for. She refused, was rude and unprofessional. I will not do business with this company again."
"I've seen many SUPER NEGATIVE reviews of Ozbo, and I admit it gave me great pause before ordering. I'm not saying those who had bad experiences are making their stories up; I am merely saying my own experience could not have been better (except for the imperious attitude of the customer service rep. of whom I inquired why there were so many negative reviews). Ordering was easy; the price was extremely competitive; and, most relevant to those concerned about shipping/delivery time, is that my order was received WITHIN THREE DAYS. Ozbo may not work for everyone, but it worked in a big way for me. "
"It is the worst online store I have ever deal with. It's been 1 month since we order the item from OZBO which never came and since then on their website the status shows "To Warehouse" and whenever I call them the agent tells me we have received your item in the warehouse and it will be shipped tomorrow and when you complaint that even last week the agent told me the same thing and she told me that fore sure it will be shipped out tomorrow then the agent will rudely reply you that No one can say that here; as if they are telling you that "you are a liar" this has happened 3 times to me .. and they will tell you "again with irritated attitude" do you want this item or I should cancel the order as if they don't care. SO BE AWARE"
"Do not buy from them. On their website they sell things they don't have. They took my money and did not inform me they didn't have it. I waited two weeks before I finally reached out to them and was told it was "out of stock" and would be shipped soon which turned out not to be true."
"I cannot rate this company low enough! I am so shocked by how poor their customer service is and what an incompetent organization it is!!!
I ordered a pet carrier from this company on February 5, 2013, the funds were taken out of my bank account the next day. 10 days later, by the 15th, I still had not received the pet carrier, or any form of communication from Ozbo except for the initial order confirmation from the 5th. I emailed their support team just to make sure the order had actually been placed and to find out what was happening. I was told by Michelle, that she had spoken to the warehouse and my order was expected to be shipped on Monday the 18th (I didn't bother replying to her email that the 18th was a national holiday). She also ensured me that when the order did ship, I would receive a confirmation email with a tracking number. By the 22nd, 17 days after I placed the order, I still hadn't received anything from Ozbo - email or otherwise - so I emailed Michelle again. This time she replied with an excuse about Fedex and UPS having weather related issues - this I knew was true, at least it had been when Nemo hit the East Coast, two weeks earlier, I highly doubt they were still having issues... I was fed up but still hoping for my order to be sent, she said in her email it was expected to be shipped that day (the 22nd).
It is now March 5. I still have no product and no email confirming it has been shipped. I called the company (and let me also note how frustrating their hours for actual live human interaction are, 8:30 - 5:00 EST..) this morning and was told my product has been on back order and was expected to ship next week. Absolutely ridiculous!!! I told them to cancel the order and refund my money - again, which had been taken out one month ago, before the product had even shipped (because it never did!) and I found a different vendor from which to order the product.
Absolutely unbelievable how a company can be run like this and stay in business!!! I will NEVER buy anything from them again and I will be sure to tell everyone I know what a horrible experience I have had with them!"
"My Pups LOVE your bacon treats :-) They Thank you. "
"LIES! LIES! LIES! First dog food order from them was perfect. Item was on sale and I had the 2 bags of dog food in 2 days. On my duplicate 2nd order, two weeks later for same item in same qty., it took 6 days to arrive and on top of that, they shorted me one bag. I was sent an e-mail from them saying they were shipping the missing bag the next day, so I waited for it to arrive. Turns out, they never shipped it and because it was over Christmas and New Year's holidays, I ended up running completely out of food. Did they care? Not one bit. I was out almost $100 as I scrambled to keep my four large (over 70#) dogs fed over the weekend and New Year's Eve and Day by feeding them my high dollar "occasional" raw diet food as I expected the food to be arriving any day. I tried to call on new year's eve and they were not in, so I sent a lengthy e-mail detailing the issue and my unhappiness. Finally, at noon on Wednesday, Jan. 2, I got an e-mail from Michelle (who claims she's a supervisor) basically saying "sorry for the delay, your item will be shipping soon". No compassion or apology for the error or anything. When I called, upset and frustrated, she ended up hanging up on me after telling me a supervisor was not available when I wanted to speak to someone other than her. After being hung up on and my request for an owner, manager, etc. call me immediately being ignored, I contacted the BBB, to get this issue resolved. The case is ongoing. I recommend all others that have had problems to do the same. By the way, Ozbo has a 'C' rating with the BBB, so if you do happen to get what you ordered the first time, don't press your luck with a 2nd order. They boast on Facebook they have an 'A' rating with the BBB, which as most everything else associated with them, a LIE. Even if they gave me their stuff for 1/2 price, I would not shop with them again and support such an awful company in any way. Customer Service rating is easily an 'F-'. I do 95% of my shopping online and Ozbo is without a doubt, definitely the worst company I have ever dealt with. BUYER BEWARE!!! "
"DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!! They tell you something is in stock and take your money and not sent the product. I ordered on December 7, and by December 18 the order was still "in warehouse". They did not answer their phone, I messaged their live chat and received a message back telling me they would contact me back in 24 hours. Then while I was still on chat they emailed me and said I left the chat so they were contacting me via email! The only thing they were good at was cancelling my order. I imagine they have lots of practice at cancelling orders."
"Ozbo.com sold us a brand name item that is no longer in business and then sends cheap alternative. When you send it back they don't refund return shipping costs. As of today they are still advertising the same item.
Sent wrong item we returned it and they would reimburse shipping costs. We shipped and not they wont reimburse but tell us they would have sent a pre paid label if we asked someone else?They advertise a brand name blitz and sent us the wrong item . they refunded original purchase price but we are still out 30.00? they have been sent two emails and offer a pre paid label but wont offer a refund? They have received the item back we shipped them back to them.They are hiding behind email if you are willing to offer a prepay why not offer the same amount in a refund?They still advertise blitz who are closed and no longer in business, they do a bait and switch and then when you return it as they asked you are not credited for the return shipping"
"Shipped quickly. I love buying from Ozbo."
"Ozbo was very efficient. the product delivered in a timely manner & correctly packaged. I will look to them again for future purchases."
"Fast shipping. Great product!"

Can Google Apps Unseat Microsoft Office and Exchange?
The BYOD phenomenon and the need to collaborate with mobile users and international subsidiaries led New England Biolabs to weigh a switch from Microsoft Office and Exchange Server to Google Apps. The results of their proof-of-concept testing surprised many, including the CIO.
Tue, May 08, 2012
CIO — In an IT environment of MacBook laptops, Windows PCs, iPhones, iPads and Droid devices, why would any enterprise stick with Microsoft Outlook for email and collaboration?
That very question prompted a 60-day pilot test at New England Biolabs, an Ipswich, Mass.-based molecular biology company. Given the growth of Macs and mobile BYOD technology at the company, as well as the need to collaborate with mobile users and international subsidiaries, the IT team decided it was time to seriously investigate Google Apps for Business as an alternative to Microsoft Outlook and Exchange Server.
"Many of us, myself included, went into the process thinking this would be a no-brainer," says Ken Grady, CIO and director of IT at New England Biolabs. "We figured we'd end up moving to Google, saving a bundle of money, and everyone would be happier."
"Boy, was I surprised," Grady added. As a result of its proof-of-concept testing, New England Biolabs decided to stick with its existing Outlook/Exchange Server set-up and plans to transition to a hybrid solution that adds the cloud-based Microsoft Office 365 for remote and international users.
Why Consider Google Apps?
Like many organizations today, New England Biolabs has a growing army of mobile users, many of whom prefer to use their favorite devices, such as iPads.
"We've given our staff a great deal of device freedom, especially the scientific researchers," Grady says. Some 50 percent of the company's employees work on Mac or Linux computers, the rest on Windows.
New England Biolabs has been an Outlook/Exchange shop for many years, and currently manages a total of about 500 mailboxes. But given the shifting dynamics of its user base and the need to collaborate with non-employees, Google Apps for Business began to appear like it could be a more suitable collaboration platform.
Launched in February 2007, Google Apps for Business costs $50 per user account per year, with no maximum number of users. The suite of SaaS collaboration and document tools currently has a user base of about 4 million customers, according to Rahul Sood, director of enterprise applications at Google. About 5,000 organizations are adopting Google Apps for Business every day, he says.
"In the public and education sectors and SMBs and enterprise, Google Apps is gaining traction, with increased growth and adoption across the board," Sood says.
For example, of Business Insider's 20 Silicon Valley Startups to Watch, 97 percent use Google Apps for Business, Sood points out.
Among the top 100 universities in the United States, 61 are running Google Apps. A number of high-profile enterprises, including Genentech, Roche, Jaguar, National Geographic, Virgin America, Casio and Salesforce, use Google Apps for Business. (Google maintains a list of Apps for Business users online.)

Title: Girls who like cats, love these!
Date: Jul 11, 2012
the 7 year olds at my daughters party really liked these as part of the party favors. We used these as part of our goody bags for a Littlest Pet Shop themed party. as reference - they are a little smaller than traditional beany babies, but we were fine with that.

There are very cute and will make a great favor for my daughter's Kitty Cat party. She loved them so much she asked if she could keep them all.

the picture makes them look bigger! Even fully stretched with the back legs out, these are not 5 inch long. Since these were a little more expensive then other "tiny" material made ones I saw, I opted to buy these since they said bean bag. It is for my 6 year old daughters birthday party favors, she will like it and with some kitten stickers it will probably do.

MARLBORO, VERMONT – A film offering a blow by blow account of a small town's fight against corporate sprawl will be shown on Monday, Jan. 26 at Marlboro College.
"Talking to the Wall: The Story of an American Bargain" is a new award-winning film by filmmaker Steve Alves on the fight against Wal-Mart and corporate sprawl ten years ago in Greenfield, Massachusetts.
When voters in Greenfield more than a decade ago defeated
a zoning petition, it was hailed as the birth of the region's
anti-sprawl movement. Alves, a Greenfield resident, caught
it all on film.
A decade after that zoning battle, Alves has released a film about the small town David who felled the Goliath corporation. At the film's world premier last fall it played to a standing room only crowd at the Northampton Independent Film Festival.
"Talking to the Wall" blends archival footage, animation, interviews, humor, and drama to examine another side of the bargain offered to communities by large chain stores-- a side that paves over open space, obliterates local culture, lowers wages, and eliminates manufacturing jobs.
"I spent many years of my life running from sprawl, searching for a place to live," Alves said. "When I arrived in Greenfield, I breathed a sigh of relief. Then Wal-Mart showed up with its plan to build a 250,000 square foot shopping center on the edge of town. I decided to stop running and figure out what's behind the corporate logo."
Alves spent several years capturing footage of the skirmishes in Greenfield and in the nearby town of Orange, Mass., where Wal-Mart was embraced as an economic stimulus.
Kenneth Jackson, a Columbia University history professor who has been an advisor on the film project since 1994, said the film's focus on "the role that large corporate retailers played in reshaping the American landscape and economy is an important and little known part of our past."
"Talking to the Wall" was produced by Alves' company, Hometown Productions, in association with the Independent Television Service with funding provided by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and the Massachusetts Foundation for the Humanities. WGBY-TV, in Springfield, Mass, is the co-producing station. Alan Dater, who lives in Marlboro, Vermont, also did quite a bit of shooting for the film.
The film, part of the "Monday Nights at Marlboro" lecture series, will be shown at 7 p.m. in the Whittemore Theater of Marlboro College. This event is free and open to the public. For more information or for cancellation information due to inclement weather, contact Erin George, Public Relations Coordinator, at Marlboro College at (802) 251-7644.

PLANO, Texas — Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Plano is the first hospital in Texas and one of only four in the world to offer patients the next generation of imaging technology.
The LightSpeed® VCT XTe 64-slice computed tomography scanner with Adaptive Statistical Iterative Reconstruction (ASIR) delivers high-speed, high-quality images with significantly less radiation, representing an important advancement in CT scan diagnostics. For patients, this means exposure to radiation is slashed by 30 to 40 percent for routine scans and up to 60 percent in some patients. For cardiac scans, radiation dosage can be reduced up to 83 percent.
With earlier-generation CT technology, radiologists could deliver lower doses of radiation, but reducing the dosage too much would result in obscuring the image. ASIR is a new advanced image reconstruction technique that makes it possible to dramatically reduce radiation without compromising the quality of the image.
"This technology enables us to drastically reduce radiation levels and administer just the dose required to achieve quality images," said Mike Putman, RT (R)CRA, Director of Radiology and Medical Imaging at Texas Health Plano. "This is especially beneficial for children and young adults whose cells divide more rapidly, making them more susceptible to harm from radiation exposures."
Dr. Ted Wen, pediatric radiologist and co-chair of radiology at Texas Health Plano, said it is important to understand the cumulative effects of radiation over one's lifetime.
"Since we are all exposed to low level radiation every day from the earth, sun, and other sources, we strive to reduce medical radiation levels as much as possible," Wen said. "As a radiologist, I live by the cardinal rule that each patient should receive "as low as reasonably acceptable" medical radiation. I can be passionate about the ASIR technology because we can now reduce radiation levels significantly and still achieve high quality CT images to help with the treatment and diagnosis of patients."
Limiting radiation exposure is particularly important for patients who may need multiple imaging tests, such as cancer patients, Wen said. It's also critical for pediatric patients and women of child-bearing age.
For heart patients, traditional CT scans required X-rays to be activated for several seconds in order to capture complete images of the heart muscle and surrounding tissue. ASIR technology reduces the actual time of the scan, capturing "snapshots" of the heartbeat so the total "on" time for X-rays is cut to less than a second, reducing radiation exposure by up to 83 percent.
"This represents a significant step forward in diagnostic technology that enhances our ability to fulfill our mission of improving the health of the people in the communities we serve," said Jeffrey Canose, M.D., president of Texas Health Plano. "I am so pleased that Texas Health Plano is the first hospital in Texas to offer this important advancement to our patients."

Nebraska coach Darin Erstad has never been afraid to admit that the way he manages a baseball team is modeled after Mike Scioscia's approach.
And Scioscia's always a phone call away.
The bond between the two started in 2000 when Scioscia took over as manager of the Los Angeles Angels, a position he still holds. Erstad played for seven seasons under Scioscia, a two-time AL manager of the year.
They won a World Series together in 2002. Back-to-back division titles, too.
It's no surprise that Erstad invited his mentor to Lincoln, where Scioscia spoke to the team and Husker fans at Friday's Nebraska baseball banquet. Scioscia will also speak at the NU coaches clinic Saturday.
Why did Scioscia agree to it? Well, read below and you'll quickly realize how much respect he has for Erstad.
World-Herald: What was your first impression of Darin?
Scioscia: Ersty? A number of things. First of all, the physical ability speaks for itself. I'd never really been around Darin — I was coaching with the Dodgers when he came on board with the Angels, was drafted and was in the big leagues very soon. You could see the physical talent. But until you get in the clubhouse with him, until you get on the practice field with him, until you get into a game situation with him, you don't really appreciate how much he really means to the team. At the start of spring training in 2000, you could quickly see that Ersty was a special player and a special person. And there's no doubt he was the foundation of those championship teams.
WH: Coach Erstad tells the story that on one of the first days of spring training in 2000, you told the players they were going to win a championship. This was a team that hadn't won it, didn't make the playoffs (not since 1986). Why approach it like that?
Scioscia: In baseball, there's no such thing as a rebuilding year. Not at the professional level. It might end up being that way. After the season's over, you look back and go, OK, now there's some strides here. You're starting every spring training with one goal in mind: to win a world championship. That's the only way you're going to get better, the only way you're going to move forward, the only way you're going to evaluate talent the way you need to. That has to be the directive of every major league staff, and it certainly was for us. And I think in Darin's case, here at Nebraska, he has to think he's getting to Omaha and they're going to win the championship. Every time you have a meeting, every time you take the field for practice, that has to be your focus. It has to be your direction. I know he has that in him. I'm sure he's infusing it in those guys that are on the club now. And they'll play at a high level.
WH: When you say that to the guys — obviously they're all professionals and they want the same things you do. But are they like, 'Ya, sure, coach?' Or do they really buy in?
Scioscia: When I was hired by the Angels, they had a great core of talented players. ... The unique talent that was there, it just wasn't brought together and wasn't meshed the way it could. All those guys had confidence they could play, and play at a high level. We just had to put them in the right place, set the environment and let those guys bond as a team and believe in themselves. (It was) not tough to do. Those guys, they felt they were good.
WH: How much of the college game do you watch?
Scioscia: My son (Matt) just played at the University of Notre Dame for four years, so I've seen it firsthand, what the college game is. In southern California, there's some terrific programs right around where we play in Anaheim. You build a relationship with coaches, you build a relationship with players, and you get a better understanding of the college game.
WH: There have been some changes lately, the biggest one being the (new composite) bats. Have you seen the game grow?
Scioscia: I'd like to see the college game go back to wood bats.
WH: Really?
Scioscia: Absolutely. I think that's what this game is built around. I think some of the changes in bats are to try to make the bats more representative of what a wood bat would do, as far as bat speed and the caliber of how you hit a ball. I think it's a good move. But if they'd go back to wood bats, I'd be happy.

Admission includes tasty gluten-/casein-free hors d'oeuvres, drinks, and the opportunity to meet fellow guests - indicate a preferred topic to chat about when you register and we will match you with others with similar interests.
Why Attend Our Conference? Autism is Treatable.
ARI conferences provide the latest content that informs medical treatment and metabolic support; this means information sufficient to reduce physical pain and roadblocks in children with autism, to the extent that many are newly able to communicate and learn.
ARI is distinguished by its commitment to invite only the most credible, accredited, and forward-thinking researchers and clinicians as speakers. Information on a medical treatment is presented at our conferences only after a special preview committee has deemed it both safe and effective.
There is no other conference with an agenda devoted to teaching how GI disorders, detoxification and other metabolic issues, and nutrition, impact a child's sense of self, behavior, attention, speech, and general health and wellbeing. Our scientific principles and protocols apply to affected children of all ages, and varying conditions. Often, an underlying metabolic problem is found to cause symptoms associated with autism, so that when a biochemical "glitch" is identified by lab test and then addressed, the child's "quirk" diminishes or goes away.
Are we saying the medical approach is the only way to tackle autism? Not at all. Many therapies, including Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), occupational therapy (OT), and speech therapy (among others), help a child's chances of improving, and in some cases, recovering. But without addressing co-morbid physiological disorders and medical conditions, little true or lasting progress or benefit can be expected.
ARI is known worldwide as the premier conference to uncover the causes, focus on effective treatments, and share our happiness at the recovery of some children. We do not claim "cure," nor do we claim to have all the answers; in fact, knowing we don't is what keeps us moving forward. But thanks to the insights and tenacity of the community, and the determination, professionalism, and open-mindedness of our researchers and clinicians, we can say unequivocally at every ARI Conference: Autism is Treatable. Recovery is Possible! We know this to be true.
Stephen M. Edelson, PhD, Executive Director, ARI

Twenty five weeks down, one more to go in the NHL season. I found a bunch of sites that list who every team plays over the remainder of the season (like TSN has), but none actually show what days teams play on. Since that is key information in the fantasy world, I have put together a chart with every team's remaining schedule.
A tough decision can be made easier with these charts showing you the best five and worst five schedules for upcoming seven-day periods. Some of you used them last year but for the benefit of new readers here is a refresher. The number next to the team indicates the 'multiplier' to use on a player's point-per-game pace to give you an idea how many points to expect for that week.
If you're in a Monday to Sunday league and are in need of a boost, there are a few teams that have double headers this weekend; Anaheim, Buffalo, Carolina, Dallas, Detroit, Minnesota and Tampa Bay. The Canes are your best bet for that stretch, facing the Islanders on Saturday and a potentially Miller-less Sabres on Sunday.
Looking ahead to the final week, Dallas owners in a Sunday-Monday league are blessed with a five game week for the Stars. Actually, Dallas owners in general should have grins on their face this week as even through Thursday night, they still have six games remaining, two of which are against the lowly Colorado Avalanche. The Avs have allowed 3.56 goals per game this season. The only other team with six games left as of today are the Devils.
On the other end of the spectrum, after Friday's meeting with the Blues, Calgary will only have three games left to play. Don't rid yourself of all Flames' players just yet though; they face Colorado, Edmonton and the Canucks, who could very well be resting their top guns by that point. Phoenix is the only other team that will have three games remaining after Friday night's games.
That's all for me folks. Just wanted to say thanks to all for the comments and suggestions throughout the season and hope everyone enjoyed the insight that brought.

I've always wondered how Ragged Mountain was named. And then on a foggy, drizzly day I experienced it.
It wore me out. It wore down my boots and tattered my jeans. I tripped and stumbled along the traprock ridge's irregular edges and outlines. If ever a place could be called ragged, this was it. And I loved every minute of it and now no longer wonder about its name.
Southington and Berlin. The first is along the 51-mile Metacomet Trail, a Connecticut Forest & Park Association Blue Blazed Trail that runs from the Hanging Hills of Meriden along a traprock spine through the center of the state to the Massachusetts line.
The second is to take a variety of shorter blue-blazed trails with red, white or green dots in the middle of them from a trailhead at the end of West Lane in Berlin. The route recommended by the Berlin Land Trust is hiking the green dot trail northwest to the Metacomet and then south to the summit before returning on the red dot trail. This is about a three-hour journey depending on gawking time at the summit and all the views in between.
I did this route except I started along the red dot trail that rises gently through a hemlock and oak forest along the traprock ridge before opening up and providing panoramic views of Hart Ponds. It's fun to see ducks and swans frolicking in the water far below. And there are plenty of overlooks with the trail passing only a few yards from the edges of the cliffs.
As visitors near the trail's merge with the Metacomet, and the forest changes to high grass and wind-swept cedars, pitch pines and white pines, look for a place known as Big Boulder Lookout. There's also a rock formation that looks like some giant was playing with rocks and built his own little castle. The mountain is also a popular rock climbing area with unique names like "Owl's Lair," "Fox Den," "Unconquerable Crack," "Broadway," and "Weissner Crack."
The highlight of the journey is the barren top of Ragged Mountain and one of the flattest faces of a peak I've seen in my travels across the state. Even though there are low clouds and fog whispering past like ghosts on my ascent, the view is still tremendous. Just seeing the craggy and ragged face of this mountaintop is worth the trip.
The journey to the north of the mountain is equally spectacular as visitors take the undulating trail along rocky crevices and hollows filled with vernal pools. A trip through a mossy hemlock forest with views of Wassel Reservoir will relax you as you prepare for the descent along the green dot trail as your 5-mile journey comes to an end. And you will have crossed the Berlin/Southington town line about a dozen times along the twisting Metacomet.
A memorial plaque at the trail head dedicates the 563-acre Ragged Mountain Memorial Preserve to the late Maurice Stanley, who "enjoyed the quiet of these hills." On this journey I found that quiet, I just missed the views. But it gives me an excuse to return and get ragged all over again.
•Route 9 to Route 71 south on Chamberlain Highway. About a quarter-mile past Roger's Market take a right on West Lane and follow to the parking lot and trailhead.

From the viewpoint, Ko Tarutao, Satun, Thailand
From the viewpoint, Ko Tarutao, Satun, Thailand
Taken on: 17th November, 2011. Copyright: All Rights Reserved - See travelfishery's page of Flickr
Read more about Ko Tarutao
The Malay word "tarutao" means old, mysterious and primitive, and today Ko Tarutao retains these qualities even though it's been bisected by a long path of blazing white concrete.
Due to its rugged terrain, Ko Tarutao was once where Thailand kept many of its convicted criminals, and more than 3,000 were imprisoned here in the 1930s and '40s. Common prisoners were held at Talo Wow on the island's east coast, but important political prisoners -- including a son of Rama VII who was considered a threat to the King -- were interned at Talo Udang at the island's far southern tip.
During World War ll the prisoners were largely forgotten, and some 700 perished from malaria and starvation. Those who survived became feared pirates who looted merchant ships in the Straits of Malacca, adding to the island's notorious history. It's still possible to explore the ruins, which have been largely reclaimed by jungle.

I have miscellaneous repair parts for the O-I Sunpak Drainable Solar Collector module, model #1104. Most of the parts I have are 110 of the glass evacuated collector tubes. I can provide pictures if requested. Per the Sunpak installation, maintenance & operating guide the part numbers for the items I have are:
Collector Tube - Part Number: 4011
Vent Tube - Part Number: 4063
Over-Temp Sensor - Part Number: 5182
Misc springs, etc.
I also have the Sunmaster Installation Manual when the job was installed in May of 1983.
The glass evacuated collector tubes cost $50 each new back in 1980 so I really have no idea what today's market is. Would like to see them go to someone who needs them to keep their current system running. Will ship at buyers expense.
I've had these parts in my garage since 1996 and haven't had the time to hunt down anymore solar panels or even repair and test the one panel I have. I had planned on getting enough of theses solar collectors to heat my house but that fell through back in 1996 after I was given all the spare parts that management used for repairs. Another guy beat me to getting all the panels so they gave me the parts.

delish!!! – good food, good service and good prices.
Chill spot – Love the ambiance over here, very conveniently placed right next to ferry.
Wasabi Mayo Please! Low Prices!!! – I have been a regular customer of Cargo for the past 4 years! YUM! i recommend it to everyone i know, the food is always delicious no matter hat you order you are sure to be pleased! the service is average but it makes up for that in the kitchen! the atmosphere is always intruiging they are constantly chaning up the inside and re painting the outside!
The Cheeseburger,it is scrumptious! and they serve it on an english muffin!!
The grilled chicken on garlic bread, i always ask for fresh mozzerella on top omg so gooood!
the adobe rubbed skirt steak-supreme!!!!
And ALWAYS-ALWAYS ask for some wasabi mayo on the side besause you can dip and spread it on everythinggggg i love it!
Mostly a fine place... – The crowds are super, the service is not snooty or "on PMS" as one rater so elligently put it. It's a great time. I like the cajun shrimp wrap, and all the bar type apetizers are great. Drink selection is back and forth but the recent addition of Blue Point and Magic Hat taps is great. Live music, DJs...
The french fries could use some work though.
If only the place and experience itself were NEARLY as good as the food it serves – I have been going to the Cargo Cafe for about 6 years now and I must say it has taken quite the nosedive. While the food remains good, the rest of the experience can be quite scary at times even. For one, the owners are total jerks. They are nasty to anyone, even paying regulars. They treat their staff terribly, which i suppose might be why they all have grown to have horrendous attitude problems and are terrible at their jobs. The Cargo use to be a place where you would befriend your waitress. It has turned into a place where the waitresses either completely forget you exist or are snotty to you the entire time you're there. Although I suppose when being attractive is the most important attribute one looks for in hiring a waitress, this is bound to happen. I once waited over an hour and a half for a table to sit and eat dinner with a large group of people (all of which wanted to order entrees) because they were having trivia night and entire booths were being taken up by one or two people with a drink each. No one asked to use the tables to serve food and have the gamers sit at the bar, it was OUTRAGEOUS!. While the taste of the food is always excellent, the health conditions are dissturbing. I have seen insects in places they should not be to say the least. There is also a constant flow of under age drinking. I have heard the owners specifically tell the bouncer NOT to card females. It is dissgusting. The general air of the Cargo has become one of "we have customers lined up around the block and don't need your business" however, I have seen it very empty on many nights and I would advise the owners to rethink this attitude because I happen to know for a fact that it has turned MANY people off from wanting to go there. It is a pity that such good cooks couldn't be located in an environment that nearly lives up to the quality of their food. I now only go there to pick up my order as I cannot stand the horrible experience that accompanies the food.
Invest in Service – Went to the Cargo recently for Sunday brunch and waited for OVER AN HOUR to get our food. Seems it was busy and the waitress simply forgot about us. It was incredible! Been going to The Cargo for years and support it's whole vibe and all but COME ON!! Just because the waitress is cute doesn't mean she can actually wait tables! I could give a scratch about attractive wait staff...this I implore you...HIRE STAFF WITH A CLUE!!! I want to be a customer but I can't bare the service!
At least the food is still decent. – I have been going to the Cargo for well over 5 years and in the good old days (when the staff all wore black button down shirts) you not only got a fantastic meal but the service was impeccible. Dinner remains a fairly good experience but Sunday brunch has taken a severe nose dive when it comes to service. I have given it several chances in recent months, but my friend and I always leave very disapointed. We are all but forgotten at our table after our intitial order is placed, and if we want anything extra it takes almot a degree in semifore to flag down one of the very inattentive wait staff. It even took tens minutes to get our check after we were well done with our meal. The cef is great, pity he isn't supported by a better wait staff.
my local – 'going to Cargo for 10+ yrs. It was my elder brother's local, and then mine. Now, neither of us live in the neighborhood, but we always return.
I can go there on my own for a quiet meal or just a drink. For time to myself, I'll sit at a table. To converse with old friends, or make new ones, I join the bar.
It's funny that people criticize the place for attitude. Are those people New Yorkers? Don't take it personally. Once you get past the initial gruffness, you'll find smiles and good laughs. Appreciate sincerity, not exaggerated, fake niceties.
Some of the entrees can be pricey. But sandwiches and appetizers are a good deal.
They have live jazz 1-2/wk. Trivia Night. And other music on occasion.
The servers are excellent. They work extremely hard in a sometimes chaotic environment. You should be lucky if they befriend you.
The Cargo is kick ass – If you like an ecclectic crowd and an overall good time where you and your friends can get together whether it be to eat, drink or just play some good old pictionary (they provide crayons and a blank white sheet at every table), go to the Cargo! The menu is a bit different and all of the selections are pretty tasty. it's such a mixed crowd and you definitely feel as though you are removed from the typical staten island setting which is very refreshing.
Rude Is The Word – Not only is the owner a jerk, the staff has an attitude problem as well. They ignore your requests
and all seem like they are on PMS. The food is not all that great and definately not a bargain.

NAMPA— A Nampa taxi cab driver has been arrested for driving under the influence while on the job.
Corporal Jamie Burns with the Nampa Police Department said Saturday afternoon just before 5:00 p.m. officers were called to the intersection of Northside Boulevard and 6th Street for a crash.
According to police, 43-year-old Jeffrey Knutson, a cab driver for 2KrazyKabs in Nampa was heading southbound on Northside Boulevard.
"He was trying to make a left hand turn into the Shell station, trying to get some gas," explained Cpl. Burns. "(He) said he didn't see the motorcyclists."
Knutson slammed his taxi into a 38-year-old woman riding the motorcycle, police said. She was taken to the hospital with serious injuries.
"You really don't ever know who is going to be driving around impaired," said Burns.
Memorial Day weekend is a time to celebrate, but it's also a time when area law enforcement call on people to make responsible choices when it comes to drinking and driving.
This particular kind of DUI case isn't something Burns says helps in getting their safety message about drinking across to drivers.
"This puts us a bit of an alert if you call a cab for a ride, pay attention a little bit to what is going on with the cab driver," he said. "Cause you never know."
Burns said Knutson was nearly three times the legal blood-alcohol limit.
"They could detect the odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from him, he actually admitted to consuming alcoholic beverages," he said.
Knutson didn't have any customers inside his cab when the crash occured.
"He did admit to having passengers earlier in the day but he did not have a passenger at the time," said Burns.
Knutson is now charged with aggravated DUI, a felony, for causing bodily harm to the motorcyclists.
While this kind of DUI case doesn't occur often, it has been known to happen.
In February of 2012, taxi cab driver James Huffman crashed into a Garden City Police cruiser and he was cited with his second DUI.
Knutson will appear in court Tuesday to face his charges.
Burns also said Knutson was cited for having an open container of alcohol in the cab with him.

Driver arrested after ecstasy pills found
By Frank Abderholden email@example.com December 9, 2012 5:46PM
Christopher Walker, 36, of the 80 Block of Maude Ave. in Fox Lake arrested with 342 ecstacy pills and charged with unlawful possession of controlled substance and unlawful delivery of controlled substances in addition to traffic offenses. | Special to Sun-Times Media
Updated: January 11, 2013 6:08AM
A Fox Lake man was arrested after he admitted to having more than 300 ecstasy pills inside his vehicle after he was stopped for several traffic violations in Lake Zurich.
Christopher Walker, 36, of the 100 block of Maude Avenue, was arrested for unlawful possession of a controlled substance and unlawful possession with intent to deliver and several traffic violations, according to the Lake County Sheriff's Office.
Walker was stopped Nov. 30 at 7:15 p.m. near Route 12 and Quentin Road in Lake Zurich when the sheriff's deputy making the stop became suspicious and requested a K-9 unit from a nearby police department. He admitted that he had ecstasy inside the vehicle and police recovered a total of 342 pills and $273 in cash.
Walker stated he delivered the pills for an unknown subject from Chicago. His 2005 GMC Sierra is pending forfeiture pursuant to the Illinois Controlled Substances Act.
Walker's bond was set at $100,000 and he was released from custody after posting 10 percent of the bond. He is scheduled to appear in court on Wednesday.

I worked at Yorkshire Building Society
Pros – Reasonable salaries and benefits.
Nice coffee in the canteen.
Cons – Crap location, miles out of town, with nothing to do at lunchtime. OK if you travel to work via the motorway (M62), but not if you have to drive home via Bradford centre.
Advice to Senior Management – Listen to your staff, and stop growing so fast. All the fun is disappearing as acquisition after acquisition is chased. It's not fun to work there any more.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
I worked at Yorkshire Building Society full-time

How is this place still in business? – Royal India has to be the blue print for the worst restaurant EVER. Bad service would be a compliment in that you would have to recieve service to rate it. The plan was to try the buffet in order to sample multiple dishes. After looking at the empty restaurant and then the beaten buffet which I can only describe as heat lamp food in fancy pots we opted for the menu. We never have a problem with paying a price for good food. Royal India hits on all cylinders with poor food, low quality, small portions, not cooked through meat and all this for a premium price. So we have food, service, restaurant in general ALL sub-par and inedible.
Terrible – Happened to drop in with hubby and child for lunch. We were not greeted at the door by anyone at all. The owner was on his phone and appeared to be inconvenienced by our arrival despite having other patrons in restaurant. While on his phone motioned for us to sit at a table. The food on buffet was cold and almost empty. Our 'server' was terrible. Don't ever go here unless you plan on being over charged and treated terribly. I will never go back to this place again. They are completely unfriendly and I would rather give another Indian restaurant in the area my business.
average food with ridiculous prices – (the review below is an edited version of the very acerbic one i wrote before - a rereading exposed it to have a lot of information that was not factual)
We were a group of 7 (4 indians) and we made the mistake of not reading the reviews carefully before choosing to go to Royal India. The overall ratings for Royal India seems to be high but the restaurant doesn't stand up to it.
The interior looked pretty decent but the prices are very high. It cost our group of 7 upwards of $260.
We ordered two starters - aloo tikki and some kabab. the portions were tiny. Each starter is good for no more than 2 - but they cost twice as in other places.
Main course was "Royal Feast for two' (~$60), Chicken tikka masala ($16), Chicken korma ($16), another Chicken entree ($16), Baingan barta, Chicken Biryani, Veg Biryani along with 5 rotis ($3 each) and ~3 naans ($6 each). The portions were decent this time but most of the chicken dishes tasted the same. The biryani was below average. However the tandoori chicken was decent.
The waiting at the tables makes you uncomfortable. The waiters - one lady in particular - keep visiting your table asking 'are you finished?' wanting to clear the tables.
The dessert portions are average. The complimentary tea and gulab jamuns they gave weren't anything to talk about.
Best Indian Food in Raleigh – This is seriously the best Indian food in Raleigh. The food is great and the service is great. What more could you ask for? The lunch menu is great for sampling different dishes, but I prefer to go for dinner and get larger portions of my favorites. Love the samosas, naan, and butter chicken!
Best Indian Food in Raleigh – I have a million positive experiences here in the MANY years I've been going here. The staff always remembers us and they know what I like even so they (without my asking) bring me the things I like (even if I'm just having the buffet and they don't happen to have them on the buffet at the time). I remember on either my or my friend's birthday we wanted a bottle of champagne and they only had super cheap and super expensive options so the owner sent someone out to the store to get a midrange one...lol.
The food is ALWAYS excellent, the service is ALWAYS excellent. The owner never fails to speak to us. The food is SO delicious and perfectly spiced that even if it's not right off the stove (it IS a buffet) or one of the sterno cans is run out that it's still better than many other options in the area.
I suppose (like any restaurant) that if you're really LOOKING for some detail to be inperfect that you could find SOMETHING (like stains on the chairs...it's a restuarant...where they use lots of yummy and colorful spices, get over it), or dirty dishes (though I must say I can never recall seeing that myself) .
Someone wrote: why would you go when the buffet isn't out and my only thought there is though they do rotate what's on the buffet and it's never identical that there might be a specific dish that you want that isn't on the buffet when you do (i.e. Dum Aloo Kashmiri...one of my favs).
It's a great place for vegetarians (which I am) because they have everything clearly labeled and on the buffet the majority of the items are vege, not the other way around.
I love this place and I have the feeling that the people that have written bad review just can't be pleased.
Best Indian in Raleigh – Been a customer for a few years. The food is what keeps my wife and I coming back. Best in town and we've tried them all. Ram (the owner) has always been great and the serving staff do a wonderful job. The more trendy Indian places in town simply can't compare with this food. You won't be disappointed.
Awful food and disgusting seating – This place used to have good food back in the 90's and has definitely lost its charm over the years. The food, prices, atmosphere and service have all gone in the wrong direction. My brother and I just ate there yesterday after several years (we never went back after our previous bad experience until now) and we were truly disappointed with the food and atmosphere. The chairs/benches were stained with food and drink spills from many years of service. The food was horrible (the naan was average) and tasted like it had been cooked a few days ago and reheated. The owner is kind of like a bully when he comes around your table to ask how the food is and decides to speak to us in Hindi since we are Indian; little does he know, we don't speak Hindi at all. The previous time we visited this place he overcharged us for our meal by a few dollars for something the server never brought out to the table; even after the server admit it that we never received the item, he STILL charged us for it since we "ordered" it - yes truly doesn't make any sense. I definitely would not recommend this place to anyone looking for Indian food; sorry but I don't have a recommendation of any other at this point but I am very confident there are better options than this place.
Never go to this hotel. – Been here today for lunch buffet. Nothing is good about it except water. It would be waste of money.I am just wondering that how could this hotel got more than one * rating.
DISGUSTING! – Yes - there really were flies buzzing around! The food was cold, the rice pudding (Wait, is it pudding if it's watery and sour?) was disgusting! The service - if you can call it service - consisted of having to ask for a drink, (besides the warm water that was served at the time we were seated) and having it refilled with ice so that the first soda was slowly watered down. Come on, for the $2.50 they charge for that soda, you would think the least they could do would be to bring a new glass of new soda, not ice cubes from a pitcher that was sitting on a shelf. Oh, and speaking of the ice and soda! Read the sanitation reviews on the Wake County site - (I wish I had BEFORE I went!!) - they had MOLD, yes MOLD on the drink dispenser! Hmm, I thought it tasted funny! Luckily, I only took one sip - couldn't get the waiter, or whatever he was, to bring me another. I didn't - couldn't - eat much of the cold food. It was disgusting. Needless to say, I won't be going back - I only went because my friend wanted to go and try the indian food. Ah, now we know - and hopefully you - the person reading this does too! This place really, truly needs to close down, clean, remodel and, almost forgot, get new owners and did I mention CLEAN!! Oh, and be careful where you sit, some of the chairs are kind of rickety and stained. It's really a filthy place. Too bad I can't give a NEGATIVE rating - one star really is too high for this gross place. Oh, and IF you decide to go - check out the restaurant's website! It's funny really! You'll be wondering, like me, if all of the celebrities pictured really have eaten what you just ate, sat where you just sat and still shook hands with the owner? Ha! I think not!
Nothing royal about it – If the portraits of royalty on the wall could speak, then they would probably say, "Why so many stains on the dining furniture? And can I please have another knife, this one is dirty!" What a wreck! This place needs a makeover bad. The slime…I mean cuisine served here is just micro waved American takeout trash, instead of the palette pleasing meals commonly associated with Indian restaurants. The butter chicken was very soupy, greasy, poorly cooked, and lacking in flavor which is very strange for Indian food. Indian cuisine is most known for mild and hot spices, and distinct flavors from various regions. I played it safe for lunch, and stuck with vegetarian dishes, like salad and chickpeas. Mango chutney was a pleasant sight to see, but also un-appetizing and ill-prepared. My final bill plus drink equaled around $12.50. My suggestion is for that cost, please ignore Royal India, and please visit the Subway situated next door. I really cannot say much for the service either. The two gentlemen, and one lady seated me promptly, kept my sweet tea full, but I sensed they were burnt out, and watered down just like the food.

Ok so this our newest problem. My daughter who is 11 1/2 weeks old is sleeping through the night for the most part but she moves all over the place in her crib. She is now inching her way from the bottom of the crib all the way to the top and her head is right up against the posts of the crib and i think it is hurting her. SHe wakes up screaming when this happens. I know they say not to put the bumpers in the crib for SIDS reasons but I don't know what to do because her little head is jammed against it and hurting. I was wondering if any one had a suggestion for me. She is also turning herself sideways in the crib and getting her head jammed in the corner of the crib. I feel so bad. I try to start her at the bottom end but without fail she manages to get to the top and then turn herself sideways like I mentioned. PLEASE help I don't want her to hurt her head really badly.
I don't have suggestions for you but I am going thru the same thing with my 4 mo old. She is still in a cradle beside my bed but does the same thing in there. (I haven't moved her to the crib yet, I'm scared). She moves herself all over that cradle and always winds up with her head against the top rails. I do have a small bumper on the cradle but it's very thin. It doesn't seem to hurt her head but moving around so much does wake her sometimes. That's one reason I haven't moved her to the crib yet. I'm afraid she will hurt herself in the crib. She can completely turn herself around by kicking her legs in the air and scooting. I'm already using a sleep positioner but she scoots out of it every night and kicks it to the bottom of the cradle.
My daughter is doing the same scooting and kicking. I have tried to swaddle her very tightly that little bugger breaks out. LOL. I also have tried to use sleep positioners and they have not stopped her. I am running out of ideas. I put her in her crib at a very young age. A lot of people even nurses suggested letting her sleep in there if she felt comfortabel. She has slept in her crib xince day one. I never imagined her being all over the place at this young of an age though and now I am worried she is going to hurt herself. I never had an issue with her bieng in the crib at an early age but now I am concerned for these next few months to come. ANyway I was going to pur her bumpers back in her crib so she doesn't keep hitting her head. I know that this causes SIDS but like I said I am running out of options. Let me know if you thing of something. We need to get these kids sleeping comfy and our minds at ease so we can sleep better. I know I worry all night long and I am constantly looking at her through the monitor.
I'm not certain about the safety at that age (though if she can sit up, or at least roll over on her own she is at less risk) but we gave our daughter a stuffed animal recently. She did move in the crib (and the bed) but not as much as yours seems to. The stuffed animal however has turned her into a stone. As long as her puppy is in her arms she will lie in the same spot almost the entire night (she still rolls over in her sleep but clings to the puppy the entire time).
Thank you for your suggestions. I appreciate all your help. I think I may try and give her her little lamb stuffed animal and se how she does. My only issue with that is that she doesn't seem to cling to things yet, although I have not tried a stuffed animal yet. I did put her bumpers back in the crib and it seems to be working yet I still have the fear of her face up against the bumper and it causing her to not be able to breathe. I do check on her periodically to make sure she is not up against it but I still as a mom am going to worry about something happening... I appreciate your thoughts and suggestions as I continue to learn everyday about being a parent with loving every minute of it.
There are breathable bumpers that are supposed to be safer. I'm not sure how cushioned they are though since they are breathable but they've got to be better than shoved up to wood rails.
I will check them out. They sound much better than regular bumpers and you know they are probably at least a little more protective for their little heads. Thanks for the advice. Greatly appreciated.
Definitely do not put a stuffed animal in the crib. That would be dangerous for an 11 week old. My thought is that if she can't get her head away from the crib railing when it is hurting her, then she also wouldn't be able to get her face out of the bumper pad if it was blocking her airway. Does that make sense? If she tends to put her face there, I would not use a bumper pad. There are breathable bumper pads, that would keep her arms and legs out of the railing if that becomes a problem. Do you swaddle her? That might keep her still.
I have not used a stuffed animal in her crib with her only for the sheer fact of her smothering herself with it but I have every intention of looking into the breathable bumpers. She is alays all over the crib and I want to protect her from injury if possible. Thank you for the input though. All the advice I can get will be well taken. Thanks again...
The brand is Breathable Baby. I called them "bumper pads", but I'm not sure bumper "pad" is the best word for them though. It prevents their limbs from going through the railing, but doesn't provide any padding. I think I will go this route next time around.
Thanks for the help. That makes looking for the item much easier. When I have a chance today I will look it up on the internet and order them. I don't like having her bumpers on the crib but for right now she has been sleeping very soundly and that makes momma happy. Not that I get any sleep checking on her every half hour but its better for me to lose the sleep than my little angel. :) Thank you again so much. Every bit of info helps.

When the first Star Wars movie debuted, it blew a lot of people's minds. Now, that's probably going to happen again as people will soon be able to hear the entire movie in Navajo.
Star Wars fans flocked to the Navajo Nation Museum in Window Rock, Arizona hoping their voices might be heard in the first of the movie series.
"When I heard they were going to translate it into Navajo, I thought this was my chance to be a part of something very iconic," said Teroy Teler.
Friday was the first day of auditions for the Navajo translation of Star Wars.
The museum was looking for an innovative way to reach Navajos, and preserve their language.
Museum Director Manuelito Wheeler said he spent three years to make this day happen.
"I felt that we needed a innovative way to reach a lot of people, particularly young people, so that they could be engaged to learned the Navajo language," he said.
The audition process is simple; after getting a chance to look at a script hopefuls met with a prescreening group to have a conversation completely in Navajo, before heading to recording. Applicants listen to the script first in English then translate what they hear into Navajo.
Teller auditioned for the part of Luke Skywalker. He also dressed up like his idol.
"Any kid wants to be Luke Skywalker," he said. "I always wanted to be a Jedi, Luke Skywalker is a very iconic figure when I was little I would always pretend to be Luke Skywalker,"
Auditions continue Saturday at the Navajo Nation Museum. The translated version will premier at the July 4 fair in Window Rock.
