Liberty's Kids
PBS (ended 2004)
Liberty's Kids
was a truly "revolutionary" children's animated series by DIC. For as long as it ran on PBS,
entertained seven- to twelve-year-olds while introducing them to the exciting stories and people behind the birth of a nation. The program unfurled its historical vignettes through the eyes of two teenage apprentices, Sarah Phillips and James Hiller, who worked in Benjamin Franklin's print shop and discovered first-hand the great adventures of the American Revolution.
Benjamin Franklin
's wise words and strong principled actions gave guidance to our young heroes, whether he is with them in Philadelphia or writing from across the ocean in France.
James Hiller
was a 14-year-old apprentice journalist at Ben Franklin's Print Shop. He idolized Dr. Franklin and hoped to run his own newspaper someday.
was born in West Africa. After learning the valuable job of smithing, he was able to earn enough money to buy his freedom back. Moses traveled to Philadelphia where he found employment taking care of Benjamin Franklin's printing press.
was an eight-year-old street urchin, who had been semi-adopted by Moses and James, who rescued him from a ship. He paid for his room and board by helping out around the print shop and learning how to read and write.
Sarah Phillips
was a bright 15-year-old girl from England. She helped James and Henri on their wonderful adventures. For a while, she found James' idea of liberty very agitating while working as a journalist to get the Loyalist side of each of James' stories.
Liberty's Kids
was designed as a 40-part miniseries, run on PBS September 2, 2002 to August 13, 2004. After that, cut-down versions were scattered to commercial stations. The Theme Song is performed by:
Aaron Carter
I see a land with liberty for all Next thing I know the truth will rise and fall That's just the way it goes A word now to the wise The world was made to change Each day is a surprize I'm looking at life with my own eyes I'm searching for a hero to idolize Feeling the pain as innocence dies I'm looking at life through my own eyes I'll take my heart into battle Give that freedom bell a raddle Get my independence signed Declare for it on the dotted line Let Philadelphia freedom ring and patriotic voices sing Red, White and Blue Never give up You represent America! I'm hoping and praying for a brighter day I listen to my heart and I obey How can I see it any other way? I'm looking at life through my own eyes
Ep Guide
Arthur Read, the spectacular bespectacled aardvark stars in this children's series about growing up. Typical childhood problems such as bratty
siblings, schoolyard bullies and classroom cliques are addressed by this popular program. Arthur's eighteenth season has come to a close. However, watch for repeats again soon on your local PBS station. And keep watching for more details on upcoming episodes of the program.
Currently, Arthur is the second longest-running North American animated series (behind
The Simpsons
), now with seventeen seasons and counting.
Developed from
Marc Brown
's beloved books, Arthur reminds us all of how it feels to be 8 years old. Just like your average kid, Arthur overcomes the dreaded obstacles of third-grade life, such as his tough teacher Mr. Ratburn, bullies, and mountains of homework. At home, Arthur must face the pint- terror also known as his sister Dora Winifred, or D.W. for short. Everything between these two is a struggle; who gets control of the television remote, who can play their Crazy Bus CD, whose hobbies are dumber, that's a baby show...Will Arthur ever win one of these pointless arguments? Probably never, because not only is D.W. fiercely independent, she's also very smart. But despite it all, Arthur and D.W. are still brother and sister, and when they're not arguing, they can accomplish great things together.
Keeping Arthur sane are his helpful friends --- an assortment of colorful animal cohorts who always provide sound advice and a few laughs too. They are: Francine Frensky (a tomboy who would rather play sports than go to the mall), Buster Baxter (an enthusiastic gourmand), Alan "The Brain" Powers (a bona-fide 3rd grade genius, who even writes computer programs in his spare time), Muffy Crosswire (the rich girl with a real heart of gold), and Sue Ellen Armstrong (a traveler of the world and geography expert). Arthur can also sometimes be seen with Fern Walters (a soft-spoken musician with semi-hidden goth interests), Binky Barnes (acts like a bully, but enjoys pastimes such as ballet and clarinet), George Nordgren/Lundgren (a somewhat shy moose who be truly entertaining when he tries), Prunella (who supposedly has psychic powers and is actually in the fourth grade) and Jenna Morgan (a rarely seen cat-girl.) And of course, who could forget Pal, Arthur's lovable, loyal pet pooch?
Arthur airs on PBS every weekday and on some stations on weekends --- check local listings for time. Or, go to the PBS Kids' Arthur schedule to find out which episode is airing in a city near you.
A large number of Arthur stories have been released on DVD and video. Many episodes are also available in book form. There are also a wealth of Arthur-related promotions and products, so keep an eye on the news and check online merchants such as eBay and Amazon, and your local stores. You can also check your local library for Arthur books.
Theme Song
Every day when you're walkin' down the street,
Everybody that you meet, Has an original point of view...
- Chorus: And I say "Hey!" (Hey!) What a wonderful kind of day! (Day!)
If we can learn to work and play,(Play!) And get along with each other... -
You've got to listen to your heart, Listen to the beat, Listen to the rhythm, the rhythm on the street,
Open up your eyes, Open up your ears, Get together and make things better, By working together
It's a simple message, and it comes from the heart, Believe in (believe in yourself...) 'Cuz that's the Place to START!
- And I say "Hey!" (Hey!) What a wonderful kind of day! (Day!)
If we can learn to work and play (PLAY!), And get along with each other (Hey!)
What a wonderful kind of day Hey! What a wonderful kind of day...
The series won 7 Emmy Awards for Outstanding Children's Animated Program, Outstanding Children's Animated Program, Outstanding Sound Mixing - Special Class, Outstanding Children's Animated Program, Outstanding Sound Mixing - Live Action and Animation, Outstanding Children's Animated Program and Outstanding Writing in an Animated Program.

Ep Guide
"Growing Up is the Greatest Adventure of All" Welcome to the Caillou guide at TV.com! This show is about the
life of a young bald boy named Caillou, his family and his friends. It is based on the books by Christine L'Heureux and Helene Despeteaux, which is highly popular in the Quebec area in Canada. There are actually two versions of the show. The first version premiered in late 1997, is only 5+65/2=35 minutes in length, consists of 65+7/2=36 episodes, and is fully animated. The plotline of this version is that a grandmother reads her grandchildren a Caillou book which Will Re-air with a Grandfather Named Bob West With Brain E. as Michael. The second version, which premiered in late 2000, has the show exended to 30+50/2=40 minutes, and has puppets, music and live action segments thrown in. The animation parts, however, are a mixture of the first version of the show with the "grandma reading to kids" part of the story lopped off & Re-aired on Television!
and some new stories (the stories are completely original as of the U.S. second season.) You can usually tell when you're watching a story lifted from the first version because in these, Caillou wears a non-descript dull-grey shirt rather than the bright-yellow one he wears in the newer segments. It premiered in the US and is now airing side-by-side with repeats of the old version in Canada. It is also aired around the world, although some parts of the world still air the old version. In 2006, Caillou debuted even more new episodes. These new episodes now feature fantasy segments, but no longer any puppet segments or musical numbers performed by real children. Instead, Caillou performs a song in-between the second and third story segments of each episode. These new episodes have now finished their run, & Newer Ones Aired in 8 years later!
but if you missed any, watch for upcoming repeats on PBS. Both versions of the show are known to be available in 2 languages - French and English. The show is produced by Cookie Jar animation in Canada, known in older seasons as CINAR. It is available in Dolby Surround and with Close Captioning on selected networks. Note 1:The old (5+65/2=35 minute) version is listed in this guide as Season 1 episodes, while the new (30+50/2=40 minute) version are listed as episodes from Season 2 onwards. Also, due to the varying runtimes, the runtime entry is omitted on purpose. Note 2: The network in the information section was formerly Teletoon, as this was the first network to pick up the show. It has been changed to PBS to reflect that the airdates listed in the guide for the newer (and current) episodes of show reflect the dates that the program aired on PBS. Note 3: The new version is aired under the title "Caillou and Friends" on TeleToon Canada. This is done presumably to avoid title conflicts with the old version of the show. Note 4: Season 3-4/2-3US Does Nwo Contain new Improved/ Ones Narrated by Bob West! From Barney & Friends! Along With Brian E. Lauren K. Ricky C. Jessica Z., & Leah Gloria as Well! Along with Sonia M. & Northern C. From The S. S. Show! in 1986!

Curious George
PBS (ended 2015)
The tale of
Curious George
is sweet and basic. George, an African monkey, is being raised by the Man in
the Yellow Hat. The Man in the Yellow Hat tries very hard to care for George, however, complications frequently occur, typically George's naivety and curiosity get him and others into trouble.
The Man in the Yellow hat is typically able to save the day. On the rare occasions that things are beyond the Man in the Yellow Hat's control, George comes through and rights all wrong (usually George is the cause of the wrong). In the end, because George is just a helpless, innocent little monkey, everyone realizes that he is sorry for his actions, and they forgive him for causing trouble.
For over sixty years
Curious George
has been entertaining and educating young people. The concept of
Curious George
began as a series of children's books written by Margret and H.A. Rey in 1941. The books were immensely popular with children because George possessed so many child-like characteristics, and the plot was so basic and innocent.
In 1979 the
Curious George
books were turned into a cartoon so a wider audience could enjoy them.
Curious George
airs on PBS weekdays at 8:00am, 8:30 am, 3:00pm & 3:30 pm eastern time.
The series won 2 Emmy Awards for Outstanding Children's Animated Program in 2008 and 2010.

Character Guide:
Emmy is 6 years old and has an active spirit and sense of adventure. She's always ready to chip in her ideas, participate in fun games and sporting activities and help out all of her friends. However, her take-charge personality can sometimes rub the wrong way and she occasionally needs to take a step back when she becomes too close to the action. Her best dragon friend is Cassie and she usually rides with her.
Max is Emmy's 4-year-old little brother. He's always happy to join her on an adventure to Dragon Land, but sometimes gets upset about being too small to do certain things. Although not as competitive or sporty as Emmy, he too delights in the fun adventures that Dragon Land has to offer. His best dragon friend is Ord and he usually rides with him.
Orville Vladimir 'Ord' is a cute and, tall 7-year-old cerulean blue dragon with purple scales, blue eyes, and an aqua-green belly. He is also from the country of Russia. He also loves nothing more than to eat, particularly anything with dragonberris in it. He's also the largest of the gang. Though his tall height appears scary at first, he himself fears many things. One of his biggest fears is the dark, a problem he often wrestles with in the series. He is also Max's best friend.
June 26
Cassandra Olivia 'Cassie' is a sweet and intelligent, but rather shy 4-year-old pastel pink dragon with yellow scales, blue eyes like Ord, and a yellow belly. She often has many great ideas and is good at many things, but sometimes lacks the confidence to speak her mind. She gets help from all of her friends, especially Emmy, and from her teacher Quetzal. Family is very important to Cassie, as she has 72 brothers and sisters and sometimes helps her parents to take care of her little sister Kiki and her little brother, Finn. She is also Emmy's best friend.
May 16
Zachary James 'Zak' is an 11-year-old emerald green dragon with blue scales not only a brother to his sister, Wheezie, he's also a very special partner. He has blue eyes like Ord and Cassie. Zak and Wheezie are a dynamic duo, a two-headed dragon who often work together, but can also think quite independently. Zak enjoys the status quo, but his wild sister Wheezie often helps him to find a good time. Desiring peace, Zak often finds himself at the receiving end of various indignities --- from food on the head to a fish blowing bubbles straight in his face.
July 21
Wilhelmina Marie 'Wheezie' is a high-strung 11-year-old wisteria purple dragon who has magenta scales and blue eyes like Ord, Cassie, and Zak, and loves singing, doing wild things and shouting and singing about the things she
. Sister of and joined with Zak, she can't always understand his desire for her to calm down. Still, the two always find in the end that they wouldn't have it any other way.
July 21
Hailing from some sort of Dragon Land Mexico, apparently, Quetzal is a goldenrod yellow 53-year-old wise dragon teacher who instructs the kids and dragons at the School in the Sky. Unlike other dragon adults, he's only a bit larger than the kids, to keep him easily recognizable to the viewing audience. Quetzal has a magical book that contains reference on many things in Dragon Land. He's always a great source of advice, but tries as best as possible to only help the kids and dragons in solving their own problems.
September 27
He's a new character coming to the third season of the program in February 2005. Enrique is 6 years old like Emmy and is raised by his Dad and Grandma and he's recently moved to the area where Max and Emmy live, all the way from Colombia. They meet and show him Dragon Land. At first, he's a bit scared, especially because he finds it hard to connect with people, having moved many times. But soon he's having great adventures in Dragon Land, just like Max and Emmy! Since Zak and Wheezie were left, he rides with them, and they're delighted at the opportunity to have someone to ride with them, since they usually flew only with each other in the past.
Dragon Tales

(such as writers and producers), but watch for a brand new cast and new environments for this curious, little puppy to explore. The program features a diverse cast of voice talent.

This is from http://careers.stackoverflow.com/jamesyoung, which would be cool to sync here automatically.
I took the long path to professional development. Although technically I learned BASIC on my Atari 1200xl when I was 11 in 1982, I didn't start doing software development professionally until 2000.
As far as actual jobs go, I started doing phone/email support for modems back in the early 90s. This turned into on-site hardware support, which turned into network administration.
Getting tired of the hardware side of things I moved into Quality Assurance testing software, which turned into automated scripting, that got me onto the development side of the fence.
Been doing software development ever since.

EXCL. PREVIEW: "Hal Jordan & the Green Lantern Corps" #1 Enforces 'Sinestro's Law'
Comic Books
Everyone knows about Zap, Arcade, Raw, Weirdo, Mome, Paper Rad and Kramer's Ergot. Even lesser lights like Taboo, Twisted Sisters, the SPX anthology and even (gulp) Heavy Metal have all gotten their due at one time or another. But then there are those anthologies that, for whatever reason, never seem to resonate with readers despite containing a host of high quality contributions. Below the jump are six anthologies I don't think have fully gotten their due. Be sure to let me know what your picks are in the comments section.
1. Zero Zero. Fantagraphics had anthologies coming out of the ying-yang in the late 1990s — Pictopia, Snake Eyes, Centrifugal Bumble-Puppy (whoops, sorry, that was 1987) — but for my money the best anthology the publisher produced in that decade was Zero Zero, a dark, edgy anthology that stoked pre-millennial fears (hence the title) while featuring some truly stellar comics by top-notch creators. To wit: The Search for Smilin' Ed by Kim Deitch, Crumple by Dave Cooper, The Chuckling Whatsit by Richard Sala, Mack White's Homunculus, I was Killing Before Killing Was Cool by Al Columbia, Christmas With Karadzic by Joe Sacco — the list goes on and on. Zero Zero ran for 27 issues, a longer run than most of the anthologies on this list received, but I don't think it's ever gotten its due as the truly great anthology of the '90s.
2. Mona. Here was Kitchen Sink's swan song, one of the last great things published before the company gave up the ghost for the more financially solvent shores of candy bar sales. Edited by Robert Boyd, Mona featured an impressive array of talent — Tom Hart delivering a classic Hutch Owens tale, some great, late Harvey Kurtzman comics and the entireity of Lorenzo Mattotti's The Thinker's Secret (later issued, I believe, in the Fantagraphics Ignatz series as Chimera), all wrapped up in a charming cover by Jaime Hernandez. Mona promised great things, but sadly was only able to get one issue out of the door before Kitchen Sink shut down. But as sad as the unfulfilled promise is, at least there's this great first issue to gaze fondly upon.
3. Blab. Blab got a some hassle toward the end of its run for focusing more on illustrative works than pure comics, and tending to feature the same five or six artists doing the same schtick again and again. While I don't completely disagree with that contention, I do think people have forgotten how cutting edge and exemplary an anthology Blab was, at least initially. For a while there it was running some seriously incredible work, like Al Columbia's apocalyptic The Trumpets They Played, and the Jimmy Corrigan story that eventually became Acme Novelty #10, easily the most harrowing and darkest material Ware has produced to date. If nothing else, I'll be forever grateful to Blab and its editor Monte Beauchamp, for running Spain's wonderful autobiographical stories (recently collected in Cruisin' With the Hound).
4. Blood Orange/Bete Noir. How can you hate an anthology that provides America with its very first glimpse of Yuichi Yokoyama? You simply can't and I'm not going to even try. Lasting a mere four issues, Blood Orange offered a mind-bending array of cutting-edge comics from folks like Nicholas Mahler, Michael Kupperman, Marc Bell, Kevin Huizenga, Lauren Weinstein and Ulf K. Despite the impressive contributor list, the comic failed to catch on. Editor
Olivier Douzou Chris Polkki tried to rebrand the series with a new name — Bete Noir — and a slightly different, more global-friendly format, but to little avail. The good news is copies aren't too hard to come by.
5. Rosetta. Critic Ng Suat Tong put his money where his mouth was (so to speak) by editing these two brick-sized books featuring artists as diverse in style and tone as Ivan Brunetti, Sara Varon, Paul Pope and Craig Thompson. What's more, threw a bunch of overseas comics in the mix as well, exposing U.S. readers to folks like Lat, Edmond Baudoin, Anke Feuchtenberger and Max. Published by Alternative Comics, these were great collections that showcased the breadth of material that the medium was capable of, as well as suggesting that Suat was a more than capable editor.
6. Cheval Noir. Despite the recent success artists like Jacques Tardi, Lewis Trondheim and Milo Manara have had in the American market, selling European comics to U.S. readers has always been a difficult proposition. A case in point would be Cheval Noir, Dark Horse's Eurocomics anthology. For most of its run, Cheval Noir featured top of the line French and Belgian talents like Tardi, Phillipe Druillet and Benoit Peeters, as well as American and English artists like Eddie Campbell and Rick Geary. Although it ran for 50 issues in the late 1980s and early '90s, few seem to remember it at all these days, despite the in-roads it made in getting foreign comics in the hands of skeptical North American fans.
Good choices, I also have a great fondness for Fantagraphics' PICTOPIA, which included works by Chris Ware and Kim Deitch, among others; the three issues of SNAKE EYES; and the great run of the DRAWN & QUARTERLY anthology in its various incarnations (I'm still missing a few issues of its original 10-issue magazine-sized run).
Monte Beauchamp's BLAB is still alive in a sense, two volumes of the new BLAB WORLD have been published (the last volume appeared in 2012).
I believe the editor of BLOOD ORANGE was Chris Polkki, btw (and not Douzou).
Yeah, I'll second Rodrigo's enthusiasm for D & Q in all its incarnations (though since it hasn't been forgotten, I understand why Chris didn't include it in his article). D & Q Volume 2 #1 may be my favorite single comic ever: an excerpt from Tardi's IT WAS THE WAR OF THE TRENCHES, Carol Tyler's original version of "The Hannah Story," a great rebus strip by Avril and Petit-Roulet, etc. Magnificent!
I also have a fondness for CHEVAL NOIR, if only because they serialized the Blueberry album ARIZONA LOVE in its last few issues…
Rodrigo — Looks like you're right. I've updated the post accordingly.
Craig — Yeah, D&Q is pretty well regarded, or at least it was at the time, which is why I didn't include it. Though maybe I should have had an entry on its initial magazine-sized run. (I did almost include Showcase, which I don't think got much press at the time.)
Another forgotten anthology I just discovered recently was 2000 Comix by L'Association, which was released by Fantagraphics around the year 2000. It was composed of 2000 pages of silent comics, and a multi-lingual introduction into several languages. You'd think that having a book composed of nothing but pictures would turn out to be a quick easy read, but that certainly wasn't the case here. There were over 300 different stories of varying length, and no two of them were alike in terms of pacing, subject material or artwork. The hefty bulk and intimidating price point ($75) were natural barriers to enjoying it, which is a shame, since there was some truly imaginative and creative works in there.
I'm highly biased because I've been a member of the editorial collective for several years now and just sent our new issue to the printer, but I love World War 3 Illustrated and think we have published a lot of amazing comix over 30 years that wouldn't have gotten published otherwise. I try not to get too defensive about it but I do feel like we tend not to get noticed much by the broader comics community, which is a shame.
Off the top of me noggin':
Action Girl (Slave Labor)
Measles (Fanta)
Non (Red Ink)
Cheval Noir is such a trove of great Euro comics. Still pretty cheap to pick up as back issues too.
I'll second Ethan's recommendation of World War III Illustrated, which really is one of the most vital and essential anthology comics around, and has been for decades. I never quite understood or appreciated Blab, but Zero Zero and Blood Orange were landmark anthologies, and Zero Zero was doubly impressive for how long it endured.
About WW3 Illustrated, I just love Sabrina Jones' work. Ethan, any chance of digital back issue editions coming out? Part of the reason for it being under the radar is that the back issues are so hard to find. Three-fourth of the entire run was available at Top Shelf a few years back for five bucks apiece. I regret not bucking down and shelling out for all of it.

Recently, I asked a family friend, a financial advisor, to share with me his perspective on the importance of rapport in the world of sales. In a general way, I knew that successful salespeople maintain good rapport with their clients. And so I was curious. Was the need for developing rapport in business any different than doing so in a parent-child relationship? To that end, I posed the following questions: "How do you establish rapport with a new client? And what do you believe is a key issue to creating rapport?

Kaboom! That's what we experience when there is an explosion. And that's exactly what we feel like when we are dealing with an "explosive" child. For those of you who don't understand what I'm talking about, consider yourselves blessed. But those who know exactly what it means for a child to "explode" for no apparent reason understand what a tremendous challenge this is. It's like living inside a simmering volcano.

Posted on: June 23rd, 2010Sections → Family → Parenting Our Children
A political figure refuses to comment on a current news story in which he is involved.. In the hope of avoiding a scuffle with her parents, a teenager, who has broken curfew, quietly opens up the front door. As she makes a mad dash to her room, she tries to avoid being noticed and questioned. In both situations, a lack of communication may be perceived as failure on the part of the individual to take responsibility for his/her actions, and/or an admission of guilt. In such cases when the person does not say yes, the message being conveyed to others can be perceived as noby default, and vice versa.

Mr. and Mrs. S. came into the office with their ten-year-old daughter, Sharon. They were very distraught and had numerous complaints about Sharon's behaviors. Not only was she having problems academically and behaviorally in school, but they also complained that every time they asked Sharon to do something at home it became a major altercation.

It is a testament to the authenticity and devotion of the staff at Our Place - a group of drop-in centers in Flatbush that cater to what most people would simply term "at-risk" teens - that none of them wanted to be mentioned by name in this article. In fact, the majority of them were even cautious about speaking with a reporter, so protective are they of their children, whom they consider very nearly their own.

When the parent-teen relationship is strained or just needs improvement parents can utilize outside help to bring about a change. When necessary, one of the most effective ways of wielding indirect control is by having the teenager meet with a mentor. As a third person, uninvolved in family conflicts, a mentor is able to interact with a teenager and provide an informal means of solving problems at school, help the teen do homework or simply be a friend.

I once received a call from a forty-seven year old distraught mother whose seventeen-year-old son Moti had changed his style of dress, wearing jeans and refusing to wear a hat. She explained that he had gone through a difficult time in school and was now hanging around the house instead of studying in yeshiva. He was also mixed up with the wrong crowd and was associating with at-risk teenagers late at night on the street. She was very concerned as she had an older son who had gone "off the path" and was worried that Moti was going in the same direction. She believed that Moti could be helped if he would be willing to talk with someone.

With Pesach behind us, what better time to take a closer look at the annual burst of intensity that propelled us, in the weeks and days leading to the yom tov, into a frenzy of cleaning? That sustained embrace of scrupulous cleaning offers insight into a subject that has lately received a great deal of attention in psycho-educational literature. The topic, OCD, obsessive-compulsive disorder, might be understood by comparing it with that exhausting endeavor from which many of us are just starting to recover.

In our rapidly changing world, the idea of control has begun to change quicker than anyone can imagine. A metamorphosis of unparalleled proportion is taking place and many parents feel that they are unequipped to deal with the challenges that it will demand.

Ruth had just recently discovered (from another parent) that Toby had been secretly dating a boy for over a year. When she confronted Toby about her boyfriend, Toby had adamantly refused to admit that she was secretly seeing anyone. Ruth was extremely distraught to realize that her daughter would do something against her wishes and asked if I could help.

This is the fourth and final part on my series on anger, apersonal control and anger management. I believe there are several major beliefs one needs to appreciate when it comes to understanding anger, angry people and controlling anger and other emotions - let's call then the "secrets of anger." An important definition to remember before we discuss these secrets is that when something happens that causes us to have strong emotions, the thing happening is referred to as a trigger.

The Berlin-Usedom Cycle Route takes you from the bustle of the German capital Berlin through densely wooded Barnim and the Uckermark region with its many lakes, to the Baltic island of Usedom.
The route begins in Berlin. With the river Panke by your side, you head for Bernau. The route takes you through forests and across hills in a landscape shaped by the ice age. Barnim nature park and Schorfheide-Chorin biosphere reserve offer unspoilt nature. Along the route you can find cultural treasures such as stately homes, churches, abbeys and museums. At Nieden the river you are following changes its name from Ucker to Uecker, then accompanies the route to Ueckermünde. After Anklam, the tour continues to Usedom Island, home to the old imperial resorts of Ahlbeck, Heringsdorf and Bansin. Your tour ends in Peenemünde on the Peenestrom strait.
Terrain: the route is mainly level, but with hilly sections, and runs largely on dedicated cycle paths away from traffic. Some sections use farm tracks.
Scenery: Berlin, woodland and moors in the Schorfheide-Chorin biosphere reserve, meadowland and forests in the Uckermark region, riverscapes and lakelands, Szczecin Bay, Usedom Island, Baltic Sea beaches.

Sward, Cutie and Marrone.
Warning, absolutely poly related this time
Sward's inner workings. I thought about this for some time now. While talking about poly and what the future may hold, Sward voiced an interest in a mutual friend/acquaintance. Maybe it was helpful that I have always said that I could imagine him developing feelings like that, but whatever the reasons may be, I still was a bit surprised. It came up on a non serious level back then and I kind of suspected something from his side since who knows when.
She is totally his type. Odd thing is, I am totally not, theoretically ^.^ All of his girlfriends before me were small, blond, really slender, the overall impression: tiny and cute. I was and am the complete opposite. When we met (oh dear, I need a name again … ) Cutie is really just too fitting for her. Fine, when we first met Cutie, Sward and I cuddled her all evening long and carried her from one place to the other. Similar to how you treat little whelps. Everyone should know the special tone the voice is able to produce when seeing those little creatures. We still have that as soon as we meet her and she immediately flings her arms around Sward's or even my neck when we meet to be hugged and carried around for a while. Even if you add her arm's length to her body height, her feet lose ground as soon as we straighten up again. I like her, but she is not my type of woman for sure. Tooo damn cute
Well, be that as it may, Cutie is on Sward's list as it seems. There is no prospect in any possible way right now, but she was the one he thought of when I asked for possible future partners. Her relationship had just gone through a rough patch. During the bachelor party her boyfriend (the groomsman btw, my BiL's best friend) drank too much and didn't wanted to leave with all of us when the evening was finally declared to be over. She was tired and wanted to go home and there was some tension between them before and during all the wedding preparations as well. He said something along the lines that he doesn't care any longer what she does and that he didn't know if there was even some kind of future for them any longer. Seems like he finally spoke some kind of truth he carried in his heart. They fixed the problems as it seems by now.
But all of this got me thinking a bit. The 'what ifs' again. What would be my take on this, if Sward would decide to go after her, given the situation that her relationship really ended or the theoretical possibility that she and her boyfriend may be open to this. I doubt that I would want her around on a daily basis. Yes, she is cute and all, a nice person and what not, but she isn't the type I could live with. All guessing obviously, I don't know her that privately, we would have to try that out, but I think that she could have a side to her that would collide with my personal quirks. Nevertheless, I can imagine Sward having some kind of physical relationship with her (even though that is kind of hard to do, as she is sooo small, but the practical things aren't up to me to manage). I would need to get to know her for sure but I am not against this, when thinking about it.
While I pondered about this possibility, I could easily think about someone, I would never be OK with. Marrone. She has been an interest of Sward back in his teenager years. I really like her as a friend. But that's as far as it goes. I couldn't accept her as a love interest because of the way she handles her relationship right now. This speaks of her inner workings and values and it would be unacceptable to welcome someone who thinks that cheating is a proper way to end a relationship (Because all of us are convinced that she is searching for a way out without having the stressful conversation of just saying "It's over between us." and be the one who ended it and therefore be 'at fault' for whatever she connects with this). I would be totally against him pursuing her.
As soon as it comes to my personal space, live and let live isn't at work any longer. I am such a controlling person, I realized. It will be extremely hard to find someone fitting into our real 'inner circle' so to speak from my point of view. Even Cutie is, right now, not fit to enter it. I will have an eye on things in that regard.
Facts: 30, female, bi, v-type relationship with Sward (husband, straight, mono) and Lin (boyfriend, straight, mono), poly-fi and co-primary.

Great coverage. Stuff like this keeps JSonline relevant. Keep it up. I've been loving the local musician focus as of late.
Wait....you guys didn't make the connection that the woman in the photo, Carrie Rodriguez will be at Turner Hall on April 12th for a meager $15! Best $15 you can spend on music this year.....Hide replies
It's a list of performers playing in March.
So, they post a picture and couldn't casually mention somewhere that she'll be here in less than a month?
kleankanteen - The photo of Carrie Rodriguez was added by mistake. It actually goes with this story, which has a video of her performing from her living room in Austin: http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/entertainment/198640191.html
Sorry for the mix-up.
Piet, I thought it was very cool, and also quite interesting, that you were able to connect with Carrie Rodriquez for the session in here home. I've been a fan of her and her work for about 7 years. But then I remembered that I "discovered" her music when her album with Chip Taylor was featured on WUWM back in 2005! I don't live in Milwaukee, only make work-related visits every several years. What is the connection between Milwaukee and Carrie Rodriquez??Hide replies
Hey TimothyB, thanks for reaching out. Carrie was super sweet to let us into her home to film a special acoustic performance for our Tap Pre-Show music video series, where we film special performances from touring artists ahead of their Milwaukee shows. Carrie will be in town at Turner Hall on April 12. Here's the video of her performance: http://www.jsonline.com/blogs/entertainment/198640191.html And here are details on the Turner Hall show - should be a good one: http://pabsttheater.org/show/carrierodriguez2013
yet you still don't explain the connection....

Fake is an ad/idea that hasn't been bought or run.
We all have drawers overflowing with crap.
I'm here for ideas not ideology, bub.
Guys lets not put everyone in the same pot here.
This is great work and we should look at it as such.
Are we gonna treat all entrants from Dubai like some people treat Italian creative on this site?
Just like most work coming out of the east.
Don't bother arguing the fact.
Just ask the FP7 lot.
Lame. Everyone knows what band-aids do. This looks like a page from the instructions, not an ad promoting the product.
guess there are a lot of bumps, cuts and bruises that need mending in Dubai these days
how do like them apples
who ever says its scam can u be honest and put the link..
its great piece.. well done
no need for a link .. just go to the lynx website.. they're both there jwt's and tbwa's
if my bandaid would stick like that and rip me off my scurf...i'd sew them.

Salt is an ingredient in just about every type of processed food or restaurant meal. So it's no wonder most Americans are getting double or triple the amount of sodium they need each day.
You can limit the salt in your meals and still have food that tastes great. Start with these four tips:
1. Cook It Yourself
Packaged foods often have a lot of salt in them, since salt is a preservative. Cooking your own meals is the best way to control how much sodium goes into your food.
Choose fresh poultry, fish, and meat instead of processed or smoked varieties. Opt for fresh fruits or vegetables instead of canned; or use low-sodium canned. If you use canned foods, such as veggies or beans, rinse the contents first to wash away some of the sodium.
For side dishes, make brown rice or whole baked sweet or white potatoes instead of instant or flavored rice or mashed potatoes.
2. Check on Salty Items
Check every food label for sodium content. Look for products labeled "sodium-free" (less than 5 milligrams of sodium per serving), "very low sodium" (35 milligrams or less per serving), or "no salt added."
Know that broths, dressings, soy sauce, bouillon cubes, meat tenderizers, seasoned salts, and condiments (mustard, ketchup, barbecue sauce), are all high in salt.
Watch for additives such as monosodium glutamate (MSG), baking soda, baking powder, and sodium benzoate, which are all sodium compounds.

The New York Real-Estate Boom: R.I.P.
The 'Times' and the 'Post' both ran obituaries for the city real-estate bubble today.
This morning, the New York Times published a report on the decline of development in the city that was written in such somber tones that it read like a eulogy to the real-estate bubble.
Developers are complaining that lenders are now refusing to finance projects that were all but certain months or even weeks ago. Landlords bewail their inability to refinance skyscrapers with blue-chip tenants. And corporations are afraid to relocate within Manhattan for fear of making the wrong move if rents fall or a flagging economy forces layoffs.
It's like this was an obituary they already had written, and were just waiting for our real-estate market to die to publish it. Apparently we should expect far fewer big developments here in the near future, which is bad news for construction workers and city tax income, and also a bummer for Michael Bloomberg, the development-eager mayor who will be seeking a third term amid all of this. (Don't expect to see the Hudson Yards, Penn Station, or Coney Island revamped anytime soon.) Rents are falling, and gentrification will soon slow in neighborhoods like Harlem, the Lower East Side, and Fort Greene. Megadeveloper Tishman Speyer is facing serious trouble over their $5.4 billion purchase of Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village, as the S&P dropped its rating on their bonds, the properties' value is down 10 percent, and they are running low on cash.
The Post has a similar report that could at least mean good news for home buyers (you know, those that can get mortgages), but bad news for families whose homes are their main source of equity. Apparently the price of single-family homes in the five boroughs and surrounding suburbs dropped 7.4 percent over the last year (ending in July). According to an S&P study, housing prices dropped in all twenty American cities surveyed. New York has been one of the least hard-hit so far — Las Vegas, Phoenix, and Miami saw much steeper declines in single-family home prices.
We take this last piece of information as small solace amid all this bad news, because the age-old adage has held true: Things may be bad, but at least you don't live in Phoenix.

Not a Gold Digger
In Origins, share a weapon you dug up.
This achievement is a rather easy one to get as digging is an integral part of the map. In order to dig you must get a shovel, two of which are located in spawn, one next to the tank in church, one usually in the wind tunnel (generator 4), and one in the lightning tunnel (generator 5) to name a few locations.
After you get your hands on a shovel dig the dig-sites until a weapon pops up, and then allow a teammate to take it by holding
. Easy as that.
All Your Base
In Origins, activate all generators without allowing one to stop.
Best done at the end of a round while having one person hold the last zombie to avoid allowing the Templar zombies to shut down any generators. All it would cost you is 200 points (+200 for each additional player you have to 800 points for 4 players) points to power up all six generators as you receive your points back after successfully powering up a generator. In order to get credit for this achievement you do need to be a part of the process of powering up the generators.
If the Templars come and shut down one of the generators you must restart.
Generator 1- Inside of the spawn building.
Generator 2- Outside of the bunker that houses a mystery box and the blue CD for the ice staff. The door to get to this generator is near generator 1, or when looking toward the rest of the map, is the right door.
Generator 3- Located through the left door out of spawn, generator three also houses a mystery box, and in the area where the robot can step is a Speed Cola perk machine.
Generator 4- Found in the large middle area of the map, generator four would be to the left when coming out of the workshop/spawn area and houses a mystery box as well as Juggernog.
Generator 5- Is on the opposite side of the middle area when comparing it to generator 4. Generator 4 contains Stamin Up as well as a mystery box.
Generator 6- The final generator is located on the far side of the map behind the church. This final generator contains another challenge box as well as a mystery box.
Kung Fu Grip
In Origins, free yourself and another from the Panzer Soldat's claw in one game.
Panzer Soldat is a new boss (much like George in BLOPS I Call of the Dead map) who will spawn periodically throughout your experience in Origins. One of his three attacks is the claw in which he fires a claw that can grab you and will pull you back to him. The achievement requires you to free both yourself as well as someone else from his claw attack in one game. This is easiest when done in a big group where you can have someone hold the last zombie and have the people working toward the achievement. When he gets someone with his claw attack there will be a red dot area where his claw used to be on his body. In order to free yourself from his grip simply shoot that area and he will drop you/your teammate. The following are the confirmed waves of Panzer Soldats.
Wave 8- 1 Panzer.
Wave 11- 1 Panzer.
Wave 14- 2 Panzers.
Wave 18- 2 Panzers.
Wave 22- 3 Panzers.
After throwing Maxis into the hole you threw the airstrike grenade on during the Easter Egg 2 per person Panzers spawn.

Over the years I have read many an article in parenting literature advising me to trick my picky eaters into eating by doing a number of things.�
1. Disguise the food as pretty shapes.� For instance, a pepper cut like a star will be a hit.�
2. Have my children help me prepare the food.� They will want to eat something they have made themselves.�
3. Introduce the same thing 10-20 times.� Eventually they will like it.
My children are apparently anomalies of the child world, as they have laughed at the vegetables I arranged in attractive patterns.� They have turned their noses up at the food they have prepared with the declaration of �now that I know what is IN that, there is NO WAY I am eating it.�� And finally, I have placed a lonely carrot on Avery�s plate every day for the last twelve years (yes, that is twelve, as in twelve) only to have it dismissed as garnish.
So when a friend of mine suggested a new salad invention she had come up with, I snorted my usual sound of doubt.�
My friend said to take a 9×13 pan and coat the bottom in shredded lettuce.� However much you want.� Put it all over the bottom in a thick layer.
Next, take toppings the kids might like and chop them into salad pieces.� Avery likes bacon and fresh mozzarella balls (he is evidently my health nut), and the girls like shredded cheddar and carrots.� I like olives and peppers and my husband will eat whatever I put in front of him, just so long as he doesn�t have to make it.
Once you have your toppings, arrange them in stripes across the top of the lettuce.� When you serve it, announce that everyone can take the topping they want so long as they take lettuce with it.
I have no idea why, but this was a hit with my family.� Seriously, I am not exaggerating in any way when I say that a vegetable has never crossed my son�s lips willingly.� Once, I hid a pea in a piece of macaroni and that story has gone down in Miller history as the time Avery stopped eating macaroni forever.� I�ve written blogs on how I hide pureed veggies in everything.� Because it is the only way I can get my oldest child to eat anything but bread.� And when the food experts told me to serve him the same plate over and over until he ate it, they did not take into consideration that my child was more willing to go 3 days without food than attempt to eat a chicken leg.
While I have never made more than one meal for my picky eaters, I have always attempted to serve at least one item at each meal that my pickiest will eat, and now that he�s 12 � far beyond the statute of limitations on reasonable pickiness � he spends his own time preparing bowls of cereal when he isn�t interested in my efforts.
That being said, the salad was an exception to every trick I have ever tried.� When I told the kids we were having stripe salad tonight, they all yelled �YEH!!�� It makes no sense.� None.� In fact, I find it slightly irritating that this was all it took to get them to eat a salad. �
What dinner hit has baffled you?
