Looks like a good solid smart buy to me, but don't get your hopes up.
The lad is 21 years old; coming from a foreign league so will take time to settle in. He has had experience here with Chelsea kiddies and Swansea but not in the top flight. Fact he's worked with Rodgers before at both this British clubs suggests setting should be made easier.
But for God sakes (or whatever other deity you want for Loki's sake) let's not talk about him being lethal in front of goal and a perfect partner for Suarez, and anything else that loads up the expectations. Otherwise as soon as he goes through a dry patch, and he will, or if he does not come out of the gate with his hair on fire you'll be complaining by October and November that we've bought another dud and need to trade up in January.
To me he looks like a good solid, but more importantly young and promising player. Good luck to him, and let's welcome him properly rather than put the weight of the world on his shoulders before he's even unpacked.
benvenuto Fabio
So Borini's done.. guess we'll just wait on the presser and see what number he gets and all that fun stuff..
Again, I've got nothing concrete, but some stronger and stronger things suggesting on Clint.. 7.5M.. again it's a wait and see..
But, for those interested, I had mentioned he had a very tough life growing up, and as Dave and I had discussed was one to develop later, as we're seeing/seen w Fulham.. I thought you might like this clip to learn a little bit and because it's quite emotional and MOTIVATIONAL.. makes me want to kick a hole in the wall.
I've said I'm not a big fan of his only because of his personality, but I'm a fan of his as a player, and wherever he goes, he will succeed for as long as his body lets him, that I have no doubt.. You can't measure the size of heart and determination, and it's fair to say some have lacked both recently
In addition to many teams in the top flight, he's also scored competitive match goals vs Spain, Brazil, Mexico and I think Argentina..

Father accused of driving drunk with kids in carSeptember 05,2013Police: Man drove drunk with his kids
BENNINGTON A local man faces criminal charges after police said he had a blood-alcohol level more than 2½ times the legal limit while driving with his two children, 7 and 10, in the car.
Michael A. Martin, 31, of Bennington was arraigned Tuesday in Bennington criminal court on a misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of alcohol. The charge was modified because Martin had been convicted of the same charge in July 2006.
Trooper Elliott Justinger of the Vermont State Police said he had been dispatched to Shaftsbury for a citizen dispute at 8:50 p.m. Monday. But on the way he learned that one of the people involved, later identified as Martin, had left with two children in his car.
At Martins home on School Street, Justinger said, Martin told him hed had 14 beers that day but had slept for five hours before driving.
A preliminary breath test indicated Martins blood-alcohol content was 0.208 percent at 9:20 p.m., the trooper said. The legal limit for driving in Vermont is 0.08 percent.
At the police barracks Martin declined to give police a statement or provide a breath sample, according to Justinger.
Martin, who pleaded innocent to the charge, was released without bail.MORE IN This Just In

FORT WORTH (February 13, 2014) Edward Able, 57, who was critically burned after lighting a cigarette in a house that filled with natural gas as it was being heated with a kitchen stove, has died of his injuries.
Able suffered second- and third-degree burns in the fire Sunday night at a home in Sansom Park just northwest of Fort Worth.
He died Wednesday at a Dallas hospital.
Police Chief Randy Driver has said the home was being heated with a kitchen stove.
He said it appears that when the flame went out, the gas went up through a vent that emptied into the attic.
Driver has said Able was burned when he lit a cigarette that ignited the fumes.

Help. I've converted a client site from static content to using WP. So far they love it. But there is one catch. On the old site there were URLs like:
On the new site in WP there are Pages not actually directories on the site. These Pages have a lowercase page slug as in 'cm', lword' and 'fr'.
Question is how can I link the uppercase URL to the lowercase page? Is there some mod_rewrite rules I can add? Also if I add this to my local .htacces will it be over written by WP.

Please enter a valid mileage
Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2015 Mercedes-Benz SLS-Class
By KBB.com Editors
The 2013 SLS AMG GT is Mercedes-Benz's answer to what a supercar should be. As the pinnacle performer in the German automaker's lineup, the SLS AMG infuses the provenance of its ancestor the 300SL "Gullwing" with the best of today's engineering and technology. Available as a 2-seat coupe or roadster, the SLS AMG has the power and pedigree to run with the best from Ferrari, Audi and Aston Martin. Under the hood is a big V8 engine that now makes 583 horsepower, while the cabin is flush with the softest leather and the kind of accoutrements that make a Mercedes-Benz, well, a Mercedes-Benz. With its supermodel looks comes a supercar price of around $200,000. Calculated another way, that's roughly $1,000 for each mile per hour attainable in an SLS.
If you crave a supercar that has a serious pedigree and offers plenty of pampering, you'll relish the SLS AMG GT. The amount of attention this car draws and its performance credentials are equally appealing.
The gullwing doors in the coupe model look dazzling to be sure, but in pragmatic terms are rather awkward to use. There's also that little issue of coming up with the $200,000 needed to purchase this car, but if you can afford to spend $200,000 on a car, that sum is probably little indeed.
One might think it difficult to improve upon the grandness that is the SLS, but for 2013 Mercedes-Benz found a way. Most notable is the addition of 20 more horsepower under the hood to raise output to 583 horsepower. In addition to adding "GT" to its name, the 2013 SLS AMG features a recalibrated 7-speed automatic transmission, modified suspension, and darkened headlights and taillights.
In our first blush with the SLS AMG, we figured it would mimic the experience we had in the Mercedes-Benz SL63 AMG roadster, which shares the same engine but little...
... else. Boy, were we wrong. The SLS AMG has a driving experience quintessentially its own. With a 0-60 mph time of just 3.6 seconds in both coupe and roadster form, the SLS's acceleration is ethereal. Implanting the big, 583-horsepower V8 deep within the SLS's aluminum body is akin to taping a bottle rocket to a paper airplane. Meanwhile, the lightweight aluminum suspension holds its own, battling the tremendous g-forces created as the SLS careens around corners. Be forewarned, though: Even with its advanced traction-control systems, the SLS's rear end can easily be made to step out, especially when the throttle is quickly engaged or disengaged. When not hanging on for dear life at Mach 1, we appreciated the SLS's well-padded steering wheel and its plush leather seats. For an even more refined feel (or a sportier one, depending on your mood), you can adjust the suspension settings from "Comfort" to "Sport Plus" with the twist of a dial.
Should the weather turn chilly after you've lowered the roadster's fabric roof – a feat done in a mere 11 seconds – you'll appreciate the Airscarf system. Built into the top of the seats, this standard feature warms occupants by blowing a kiss of warm air around their neck.
Those looks. That engine. The heritage. As either coupe or roadster, the 2013 SLS AMG GT represents a modern masterpiece with more than a passing nod to its heritage as a car piloted by racers and flaunted by the rich and famous.
Jump into the 2-passenger cockpit of the 2013 SLS AMG GT, and you'll find a cabin much like that of any other Mercedes-Benz. That is to say, it's well-crafted and has a logical layout, but it is not as inspiring as the car's exterior. Still, the interior is awash in soft leather and gleaming metal, and for 2013 receives an injection of red, now the color choice for the seatbelts and stitching. That hue is a reminder of the venom this ultra- luxury car can spit. Mercedes-Benz's familiar 7-inch color screen sits high in the center dash, while its COMAND control dial is directly below a stubby transmission lever. Directly to the left of that lever, things get interesting with five big controls for adjusting suspension, traction control, and starting the car. Press the button simply labeled "AMG," and the display screen will show all manner of vehicle performance information, such as how many g forces it's pulling.
In coupe form, the most defining feature of the 2013 SLS AMG GT is its upward-opening gullwing doors. Fully expanded, they truly are a sight to behold. Unfortunately, they are not the most practical things in the world. Opening and closing them requires a wide range of movement on the part of the driver and passenger, from bending down to open them to stretching high to close them. If this seems burdensome, consider the SLS roadster, which retains the coupe's long and lean shape but has traditional doors – not to mention a triple-layer fabric roof that quickly retracts for open-air thrills.
As you might guess, features are aplenty on a $200,000 car, not the least of which is the admiration that usually comes with driving a $200,000 car. Among the tangibles you'll gain in the SLS are Mercedes' COMAND system with voice activation and features like navigation and Bluetooth streaming. In addition to storing music files on the hard-disc drive, there's an in-dash 6-disc changer and AM/FM radio that plays through a 100-watt, 6-speaker sound system. Designo leather seating is standard, as is a rear-view camera, blind-spot monitoring system, bi-xenon headlights, and dual-zone climate control. Roadsters feature the Airscarf neck-heating system and a removable wind deflector.
How do you doll up a supercar such as an SLS AMG? One way is with carbon fiber, much of which is available inside and out as options that cost thousands alone. For those who plan to take their SLS to the track – or make believe they're on one – there's the AMG Performance Media option. This system measures vehicle performance data and race results, and displays them on the screen. For audiophiles, there's a Bang & Olufsen unit that offers 1,000 watts of sonic bliss through 11 speakers. Those wishing to stop with the same vengeance as they can start can fit the SLS with $12,000-plus carbon-ceramic brakes.
The heart of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT is a big, naturally aspirated V8 engine. It's technically 6.2 liters in displacement, but Mercedes still likes to dub it a 6.3. Among the hand-built engine's impressive facts – other than its 583 horsepower – is that it uses a dry-sump system for lubrication. This is relevant because it allows the engine to be placed lower for a better center of gravity (and thus, better handling) and enables you to corner hard with less worry of damaging the engine due to low oil pressure. All SLS models are rear-wheel drive and use a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.

"I reviewed these a couple years ago and now am providing an update. We still have both SLSs ... roadster & gullwing. They are rock solid with 17000 miles on the gullwing and 10000 on the roadster. Mercedes service is great and affordable. No problems. I bought both used (8 months and 12 month old) a couple years ago and therefore saved a lot of money off sticker. That being said, both cars are now worth more than I paid .... who would have thunk it? Great cars ... great art ... and very rare which I enjoy."

"I purchased the car used from a dealership. It had one previous owner and 21,000 miles. I drive it about 1,000 a year inasmuch as it is not my daily driver. The gullwing doors was the selling feature for me. Every time I fill the gas tank I get stares and inquiries as to what kind of Mercedes it is. It rides great and has fabulous acceleration. The sound system is great, especially with the upgraded system. Climate control is very good and the seats are extremely comfortable. Service costs are typical M-B, but not excessive. I was even surprised that the insurance costs were moderate (State Farm). I would highly recommend this car to anyone who wants to own a future classic and who loves the 300 SL, but who doesn't have a spare $1.5 million laying around."

"Great reliability and value. Despite it not being as fashy as the Ferrari or Lambo, it sure gets a lot of attention - although generally people love it or hate it, nothing in-between. Real reason for choosing this over the others however is the reliabilty, cost and ease of servicing. Can take into any MB dealer (and there are plenty to choose from) and get regular maintenance completed at a very reasonable cost. Rides well considering its a sport car, but what I like the most are the convenience items that really work (navigation, upgraded B&O radio, etc.). This can easily be a "every day" driver. Should remain classic and unique style for years to come."

"We own both the coupe and roadster. The roadster is my wife's only car and the coupe is mine. The dealer offered us a 7 year bumper to bumper warrantee for an extra $3500, so my future costs are fixed. They sound great, are of typical german quality, and both hold a set of golf clubs in the trunk. We are car people so we love the conversations these cars create. Our choice was over the Bentley, Lambo, Aston,Audi R8 V10 & Ferrari ... and while a couple came close, this cleary was the best built in terms of daily usability and on-going maintenance (although from a maintenance perspective, the Audi tied). Love the cars. Great purchases. (By the way, I have 11,000 on the Gullwing and my wife has 3800 miles on the roadster. One final thing ... my wife is 70 and 5'2" and has no trouble reaching the gull wing door. She brings it down as she gets in."

Silva Explains Why He Turned Fight Down!!
Wanderlei Silva responds via video posted on his website to the allegations that he turned down a fight with Chuck Liddell for UFC 76 in September.
In the video Wanderlei stated, "I never said that I wouldn't fight Chuck. I've wanted this fight for a long time"
The former Pride champion continued, "I received a contract with two options, I could fight in September or November. I have chosed to make this fight in November. I was the first to want this fight, but they kept avoiding this fight. Now there's a lot of people saying that I have ducked Chuck. This is not
According to Silva, the timing for the fight to take place in September did not work for him. He explained, "I am in a moment of transition in my
. I'm going to move to the U.S. in a few weeks. I'm going to
in the U.S. and there's a lot of things happening, and I'm not focused on training the way I want to be. I always fought at the time the promoters wanted. Sometimes I did things I should not have done, but this time I won't do that anymore."
Denying he ever turned down a fight with Chuck Liddell, Silva said, "I want to fight chuck in November and make a huge show, and make it the biggest show ever...I have no doubts it's the most important fight of my life. I know Chuck is a great name in the U.S., we'll do a great fight. I think I must be in my best shape, so I want this time to train better to be in my
shape ever."
Wanderlei asserted, "This fight is on, if he Chuck doesn't hide behind this mess."

I always do my Gingerbread Man unit at Christmas time. Usually the 2 weeks before Christmas. I buy those same Gingerbead Man cookies and I have each student take ONE bite of it and then we graph which part they bit off (the arm, leg, head, etc.). The kids love the Gingerbread Man unit best of all!ReplyDelete
Another cute idea that I've seen that goes with this is, if you have a "summer kindergarten camp" like some schools do or a back to school night before school begins, read the story (or have a section of the room set up for parents to do it with the kids at open house) and let them make "wanted" posters detailing where he was last seen and for others to be on the lookout for him. They can tape it up in the halls anywhere on their way out of school that day or night. Then on the first day of school do what you have suggested. Builds a lot of excitement wondering where he went.ReplyDelete
Have you seen the book, "Gingerbread Man Loose in the School?" It's exactly what you would think it is! Our kinder team always does the gingerbread hunt (but they use their class mascots), and when I saw this book I thought, "Now why didn't they write this?"ReplyDelete

Tales of a Third Grade
Love the Gingerbread Man story & ideas--one problem though, what if you have a child like our daughter? She has celiac disease. If she came to her desk and found a cookie on it (gluten), she would be very upset. Do you clear the treat with parents first? Our daughter would not eat the cookie, but she would be rather upset about needing to clean the gluten off her desk before she will sit there & do any work.ReplyDelete
Don't get me wrong, it's a wonderful idea, just really wondering about those who can't enjoy the whole experience. Maybe you have not had a child with celiac disease in your class yet?
We read "The Kissing Hand" on the first day. We then go hunting for Chester. While we are gone the Kindergarten teacher puts cookies on the desks and sets Chester on my director's chair. The cookies are hands with a chocolate kiss in the middle. A local lady makes them for me and they are so cute!ReplyDelete
I LOVE the gingerbread man hunt idea! I just linked up, and I'm a brand new blogger! I'm excited to be back in 1st grade this year! It is definitely the place to be ;)ReplyDelete
Thanks so much for hosting this party!! I'll be a first year teacher in August and I really needed these ideas!!ReplyDelete
Marvelous Multiagers!
@MandyTaylor, I have to find that book. I've never heard of it! I will be purchasing that one for sure. THANKS!!ReplyDelete
@Laurel, You are absolutely right. This activity would not be done until I had all health information back from parents, which they complete at Back to School Night. If I had a child with a particular allergy or celiac disease, I would either not do this activity or I would adjust it as needed. There are some really great gluten free gingerbread recipes that I would have no problem making instead of using the Little Debbie treats.
Such a cute idea! I'm going to use this for sure this year! Quick question, what type of font did you use for the gingerbread scavenger hunt? It's so cute!ReplyDelete

I love doing a gingerbread man hunt with the kids on the first day! I'm not sure who enjoys it more :) Instead of reading The Gingerbread Man we read The Gingerbread Kid Goes to School. We make a list of all the places he goes and the order and we use that as our guide around the school. I have my neighbor teacher go in the room while we're gone and she leaves us a note (saying that we just barely missed him but he hopes we enjoy the treat he left behind), gingerbread cookies and she puts my stuffed gingerbread man in my rocking chair. Hmmm almost makes me ready to go back to school but not completely :-DReplyDelete

I played it again for people at work on Monday and it just happened to be while +Amy Simpson was watching a gif of Gizmo. She noticed it synced up and then I whipped this up in movie maker.
Yesterday was a huge day for us! We have wanted to get a little camper, like a Westfalia for many years now. With dreams of cross country road trips. Or just easier camping escapades. We didn't want to register/insure/maintain another vehicle. That is when Tot cam up with the idea of getting a little camping trailer. So last week we decided to do it. We ordered a tow hitch kit for our car and started looking on Craigslist of super cheap old campers.
The tow kit showed up the night before we were to cruise out to take a look at this little guy out in Pinole, CA. So we got up ran some errands and started installing the kit our selves. We first tried to cal a ton of car places but none could do it same day.
It took use about 2 hours. Drilling out bigger holes in the car frame by far took the longest. Then fishing the 4 bolts through the frame. Fortunately the kit came with special wire to hold the bolts and it went relatively easily. The unfortunate surprise was there was a little back stop tab in the shaft that the actual hitch went into. It was about 4mm too shallow to allow the hitch pin to go in. So more tedious drilling was involved.
Tot hooked up the light kit and fished all the wiring under the interior paneling.
We headed out into Bay Bridge construction traffic. That caused us to go all the way down through Hayward to get up north of Berkeley. We showed up late but the trailer was in excellent condition and the guy was super nice. We were very happy with it and headed home (at 55 mph). We made it home by around 7:30pm PDST. We were completely beat but happy as clams!
So, I finished up the big huge migration from my 15x1tb mdadm raid 6 array to a 6x3tb Windows Storage Spaces setup. I am in general I am really liking storage spaces. It is far more tolerant of plugging and unplugging devices. I had so many bad experiences with drives disconnecting just for a second and the whole array degrading and taking days to rebuild. Windows storage spaces isn't nearly as concerned about re-balancing parity across all the drives. It also requires a flat 33% loss in usable space. But being able to mix drive types and sizes is worth the trade off. We will see in the long run how well it works for me. My old mdadm array lasted me something like 5 years and was still kicking. But that is more a testament to the quality of off the shelf WD drives.
The blue drive was the original Ubuntu systems drive. I hooked it up in Virtual Box VM in Windows. The original idea was to run Windows underneath and just run my old Ubuntu install in a VM. But the more I thought about it the more I found my self sick of managing everything in Ubuntu. So I just installed nginx in Windows set it up as a service and copied my config over from Ubuntu. I installed the windows counter parts to all the services I was running under Ubuntu (sabnzbd, node.js, plex, mysql...) and was up and running in almost no time. I installed an open SSH server. I haven't messed with it much but so far I'm liking admining in Windows. I'm sure I will hit some pain points sooner or later.
I tried installing and running my own cloud9 IDE instance but as usual that ended in failure due to a month old know issue.
I did set up a headless ubuntu server install through virtual box that runs as a windows service and runs on start up.
I'm pretty happy with the end solution. I would rather just run cloud9 in windows and have one less system to worry about. But I do like having a full bash shell for the times when I feel typy.

Is it possible to change the default font for a Pivot Table?
We have a report automation module in our application that populates an Excel spreadsheet with a result set from an Oracle SQL query.
Long story short, you upload a template document with all the formatting already done on all the right places, the automation populates the report and sends it off.
Problem is, my template is 100% but when I receive it back after it has been populated with data the font on the pivot tables have changed.
The pivot font in my template is Calibri, but when I open the report the font has changed back to Arial.
Any ideas are welcome.

My LO will be 1 year old here in a few weeks and I'm starting the process of weaning him from a diet heavy of BM to 3 meals a day and 1 or 2 snacks. For the life of me I cannot remember what I fed ODS for snacks at this age that were healthy. I've given LO cut up fruit, but what else besides fruit could I give him? He only has 4 teeth, so raw veggies will be too hard. Is there anything whole grain that would be semi easy? And it has to be something that I can pack in the early AM and last until the afternoon (he goes to daycare), so no toast or something that has to be prepped later on. It can be something that I make/cook at home ahead of time though (as long as I can freeze or store it in big batches).

Cooked egg yolks (not egg whites)
softly steamed veggies: carrots, zuchinni, yellow squash... you can make these ahead of time, put them in a container and send them off with your little one...they are fun to eat cold too. :)
Mashed berries and whole milk yogurt
This is a good article to give you some ideas.... just scroll down to about 1/2 way through where they start talking about feeding babies solid foods...
Good luck with everything!
I made some granola bars the other day that may work. They aren't the healthiest of treats, but I felt better knowing exactly what was in them. You can leave out the mini chocolate chips and cut down on some of the sugar and butter and I'm sure they would be just as good. They don't get hard and aren't really chewy - they basically fall apart in your mouth. As long as you watch your LO while eating, they should be fine. I give them to my LO for a nice treat and he loves them. :)
You uncultured swine.

I realize I am probably looking for things that aren't there. I have never been so unsure of myself as I have been with my sweet heart baby. Night before last, I noticed some sucking in right below his ribs on the sides of his abdomen above his belly (to each side not in the center). It isn't severe...looks like abdominal breathing. He has no other symptoms - no sweating when nursing, no fatigue when nursing (although he has been more sleepy today than yesterday, but yesterday he was up alot so maybe he is catching up?), no blue colorations... He checked his heart rate after he feel asleep night before last and it was within range (144) and respirations were 44. He doesn't seem to be struggling. My husband thoguht it was a little different too but he didn't seem too concerned. Should I take him to the pedi for something like this? Should I wait and see? Am I seeing things that aren't there? Were those retractions especially since there was no other symptoms accompnaying it? Looking for some guidance...my hubby isn't helping any and I don't feel like I am seeing things accurately. Thanks.
What do retractions look like?
Hi! I know it is absolutely terrifying trying to keep track of all this. My pediatrician was always happy to look at our son whenever we had a concern. It sounds to me like some subcostal retractions from your description.
Here is a video of my son. He started retracting within 24 hours of being born and continued to have tachypnea (fast breathing) and retractions from that time until he was repaired at 3 months 3 weeks.
If it were me, I'd get checked. Our cardiologist wanted weekly weight checks so we had a home health nurse in weekly to assess respiratory rate, BP and weight. It was great for peace of mind. I would hate to have you go into the doctor and risk germ exposure unless absolutly needed, but I wouldn't want to risk respiratory issues either. Does your doctor have a "preemie protocol" or something like that where they make sure you wait in a clean room instead of the shared waiting room?

That is what I thought too...the subcostal retractions. Is it a concern if he isn't struggling though?
I guess I will try to get him in to see the pedi tomorrow. Our caridology apointment is set for the first week of April...
He is 6 weeks tomorrow and looks like he is gaining weight well. Everyone tells me how big he is getting...
My son had this along with respirations in the 40s - (he's 2 so that's high) when he had pneumonia.
I would get it checked. Do you notice any sucking in at the notch above his sternum (right in the middle- if you run your finger right down your neck, you'll feel a notch (the suprasternal notch). My son had a little retraction there when he was in CHF (his respirations were in the 70s then)
My son had this too, after his surgery, and it was bad. The sucking in was right above the sternum, like PP said. It looked like he was sucking in his stomach! But his was so severe there was no question about it!

SAHM to DD April '09 and
DS July '11 (my happy guy with lots of problems). Watch his story!
If he has retractions he is working hard at breathing. If you watch the video, my son looks perfectly content, he's laughing and playing but he's consuming huge amounts of calories and is in heart failure, though we are managing it. A change like that is always worth review, or at the very least a call to your cardiologist.

Joesph ^4/1/13^ 11w4d
Riley 9/22/2014 25w2d
Your video was one of the ones I actually found last night when I was searching for what retractions look like. My LO looks the same just not do obvious. It does go in some at the neck but do subtle. If I wasn't looking for "signs" I don't know if I would give it a second thought. Hi respirations right now are 47. It is late now ... I will call cardiologist tomorrow. I would rather see my pedi first buy she is out of the office this week. She just hired a new nurse practitioner. Should I go in to see her or call cardiologist? I don't need to go to ER tonight do I?
I don't know your LO nor any details on his specific medical history or details. It is early enough that I'd be very tempted to call the on-call line for your cardiologist to make sure that what you are seeing is expected for your son.
If you called your Nurse Practicioner or even your after hours pediatrician line, my hunch is they'd send you to the hospital or at least an after hours clinic to be checked out. Simply because without medical eyes, you can't be sure that something isn't going on. The thing is, in my experience, every time we went to the ER for respiratory stuff we were admitted because for even the most experienced non-cardiac medical folks are concerned when they see that level of effort in breathing. That's why I'd totally lean toward calling the cardiologist and seeing if, given your medical history, what you see is somewhat expected.
Try to breathe so that you have subcostal or supersternal retractions, even when it doesn't look like work, you'll find it is a lot of effort. Caveat: Don't do it too much, you'll hyperoxygenate and get really dizzy.
Also, do you count the full minute when you count respirations? How old is your LO and what kind of defect does he have?
My gut says you should call since you noticed a respiratory change that indicates his effort to oxygenate has increased. My son's O2 sats never dropped below 96% and he always had excellent profusion, but his respirations were sometimes in the 90s for a period of time. Respiration is generally slower when sleeping (that's why we could get him to take a bottle in his sleep easier than we could awake).
Charlie 8/9/10 AVSD OHS x2, Autism
Joesph ^4/1/13^ 11w4d
Riley 9/22/2014 25w2d
It is all in how your son handles his particular anatomy. Plus, it could be RSV, Bronchiolitis, pneumonia or some other respiratory issue. I assume you are counting respirations for a full 60 seconds, not doing a shorter count with multiplication. Because infant breathing is periodic breathing you have to count the full minute. My son's respirations were 57 at 8 weeks and that was enough to scare her. Normal is 30-60 so your son is trending toward the high side of normal. I'd definitely give your primary care physician a call tomorrow and check in just to be safe.
When my son needed his meds adjusted he didn't break out in a soaking sweat, but I could feel tiny beads of sweat if I kissed his forehead. It was barely noticible, sometimes the symptoms are subtle and things a "normal" parent would overlook.
If you see anything particularly concerning, call the after hours number for either cardiology or your pediatrician. Do you have a local Children's hospital?

Boeing "cutting metal" on new spaceship
[caption id="attachment_107411" align="aligncenter" width="580" caption="Boeing's new capsule docks with Bigelow space station in this artist's rendering. Image courtesy Boeing."][/caption]
Much of the groundwork for a new Apollo-style capsule that could carry as many as seven astronauts into space is being laid at Boeing's Phantom Works facility in Huntington Beach, managers at Boeing said Thursday.
The new capsule, for now called the CST-100, could become a workhorse in low Earth-orbit, ferrying astronauts or cargo to the International Space Station, or ISS, after the space shuttle fleet retires next year.
The capsule is also being designed to appeal to space ventures by private companies, including an inflatable space station under development at Bigelow Aerospace in Las Vegas.

"We're at a point in the development of human spaceflight where there's a market emerging beyond the ISS, beyond NASA," John Elbon, Boeing's vice president for commercial space programs, said in a briefing Thursday. "And that piece of this is really exciting as well."
The new capsule could be launched using a variety of rockets, Boeing says, and could make its return to Earth by splashing down in the ocean, as the crew capsules in the Apollo program did, though it is mainly designed to come down on dry land.
Although the survival of the program depends entirely on uncertain government funding -- Boeing hopes provisions will be made for it in upcoming Congressional appropriations bills -- the company is already designing and testing parts of the new capsule under an $18 million Commercial Crew Development contract with NASA.
"We are cutting metal right now, and we are making a lot of progress," said Keith Reiley, Boeing's commercial crew development program manager.
A demonstration version of the capsule that will be used in pressure tests is now being assembled at Boeing's Advanced Network and Space Systems Division in Huntington Beach.
[caption id="attachment_107415" align="alignleft" width="225" caption="New Boeing capsule would seat seven astronauts. Courtesy Boeing."][/caption]
The base of a demonstration heat shield for the vehicle also is being built there, along with a long track that will allow the capsule's docking mechanism to be tested.
If there are no funding hiccups and all goes according to plan, Boeing hopes to develop the ship on a tight timeframe: a launch-pad "abort test," a high-altitude abort test, and a crewless flight test by 2014, with the capsule ready to fly in 2015.
The new spaceship would only be for use in low-Earth orbit, or "LEO," and should be viewed as a complement, rather than a competitor, to NASA's proposed Orion spacecraft, which could be used for deep space exploration, the managers said.
"NASA ought to be doing the really hard stuff -- exploring beyond LEO," Elbon said. "So we see commercial access to LEO as a real enabler."

Lets say I am designing a database data model of an online seller of products such as Amazon, I have a few options:
When inserting rows in OrderLine, to determine each OrderLineID:
select max(OrderLineID) + 1
from OrderDetail
where OrderID={OrderID}
OrderLineID will have nice simple small numbers, each row nicely numbered:
OrderID OrderLineID
------- -----------
100 1
100 2
100 3
Option 2: Instead of select max()+1, set column OrderLineID autoincrement.
Advantage - no need for select max()+1
Disadvantage - OrderLineID will not have nice looking small line numbers ie 1,2,3,4 etc, OrderLineID will have very large numbers.
Option 3: Move OrderLineID up to be the first column
Which would be the best data model?

It was so difficult to vote! The others are all great too.
I love seeing genius new ways of using bricks.
Guss won 3 points for an amazing design. Amazing way to do the black keys on the piano. Lovely four-poster bed. Superb overall style. The others were all very close though. Blue soldiers are always better than red too.
Infomaniac had some incredible stuff too. The use of lego string for the hangings. The rubber band and screwdriver for the wall map. Lots of cool little details. I love the fight ensuing beneath.
Erdbeeris has a great design too. I'm uncomfortable with the use of so many brown legs though. The little windows are good. The big chair is very well done. Craziness going on down below.
oo7 wins a point for expert simplicity. It is not big or complicated, but very effective. I'm uncomfortable with the use of arms for the chair though - even if it looks amazing. The wine rack is great.
I learnt a lot of new techniques in reviewing these scenes. Thanks!

really hard choice. some are beautiful mocs even if they are no proper "captain's cabin" or actually "no-more cabin"
NeoKross - I really like the way the cabin's walls are made, they follow the shape of a real ship. good idea for the bed!
I Scream Clone - pictures speaks by themselves nothing to complain. didn't gave the first place because I'm sure he's going to get tons of points from everyone.
74 loulotte - love the minifig hiding in the barrel
oo7 - a bit crowded, but lots of interesting spots. like the candles, the chair, the glass of the cupboard and the big map on the wall.
Toutouille - a really nice one in the "no-more cabin" group. I relly like the scene... the captain, even if he has no more ship left, still use his crew to bring the remains of the cabin around the sea looking for more adventures!

Let me say thank you to everyone who submitted. I really enjoyed looking at your work. I saw many things I never imagined could be built along with building technics that left me scratching my head. All very impressive! Thanks again!

oo7's entry involved so many details but kept a smooth uncluttered build alltogether. one of the cooler ideas in his MoCs was the world map on the wall, and the fich hanging from the wall. The wig and food were also good touvches to theis amazing MoC.
Majek's entry was also quite good because of the details like the cabinet and envelope. Another reason I liked this creation more than most of the other entries was because it was built so realistically and actually had a real part in history.

oo7's entry is amazing, with all sorts of fancy techniques in the cabinet, the candles, and the chair. The room is elegantly furnished with all sorts of things, making his cabin look awesome. His room is stuffed with all sorts of things that would be in a captain's cabin.
I Scream Clone's entry is also stunning. Using Kit Fisto's head for Davy Jones is a great idea. He added the smallest details, such as the bicorne on the dresser and the debris on the ocean floor. The barrels in the corner and the skeleton bodies everywhere look great.
A close third would either be Patriot 270 or Guss. Patriot 270 made his 'captain' in the coolest fort, with cannons and men arming the walls of the fortress. The little nightstand looks very cute, and the miniature ships on the table is also a cool detail.
Guss's entry also has many objects, and the color scheme is brilliant. I love the blue and tan floor. The piano looks very nice and I love the bed.
This contest was great and I loved voting for these awe-inspiring entries.

Most Points for Cap'n Blackmoor, following reason: This site is called: classicPIRATES.com, and a pirate is nothing without a shipXD You can see immediately that his MOC is a pirate ship. Ofcourse the other things are also allowed but ships are the best And in a lot of MOC's, the persons are just standing, in his MOC is a lot of action and also humor (fire) And it's one of the only MOC's with cannons in it. Thats also a part that can't be missed. But ofcourse the other guys made very great things too!
For example Guss, that thing looks amazing too! Great to make so much of it with brown bricks, very realistic. The piano is invented very well. There are also cannons on it, that's important too:) (see: comment on blackmoor's MOC) And it's just a perfect thing, could be selled in a shop, everything is right on it. (but it's no ship:D but that's just personal.
The MOC of patriot looks very simple, yet also very impressive. It looks like a powerful fort. It's really a military building (with cannons!) and it looks great because of the white bricks. Every color is good and the patriot has thaught of every little piece. I like the thing that the chambers are not full of ornaments and other stuff. An officer's room is tidy and clean, and this one surely is. And as a thing to end with: the shark on the wall is very cool, the officer must be very proud of it
That were my points and comments, congrats to Blackmoor, Guss and Patriot! And all the other persons made great things as well, but it's to the other people to decide if they get any other points -or not

007- All those details, magnificent! A couple questionable color choices (yellow and sand green?) but that map and the wine rack are fantastic!
I Scream Clone- Wonderful concept. Love the wrecked remains and the organ is pretty good.
Honorable mentions:
Honeybee- I wanted to give you some points. I was drawn in by the skeleton pirates. Great floor. I think a little taller walls and a slatted roof with some
overhead lighting would have given this one some kick! Good job.
Gettobread- Great lookin' kitchen! Reminded me of the first "Monkey Island" game.
Good work everyone!

After looking at the entries, I have decided my votes and split it to this order.
I Scream Clone (3) This entry is very remarkable, by using many techniques to illustrate the ship wreckage of the Cpt David Jones' cabin. Love the organ and the way you arrange the wreckage at both levels.
Patriot720 (1) This is a neat entry, with no sport of mess which show the organised Imperial Soldiers' doing their duties dilgently.
Erdbeereis (1) I love the wacky chaotic scene at both levels. Too much rum sure get them go wild.
CVSPIS_CELIDVS (1) A very colorful depiction of the upper level, while sinister beings is brewing beneath them.
74 louloute (1) The expression of those peeping tom are priceless. It's uncommon to see a female crew inside the Pirate ship. Furthermore, this is the Captain's daughter.

A young mother must have been ''rotten drunk'' when she drove
across town, three times over the legal breath-alcohol limit,
with her 2-year-old son in the car, a Dunedin judge said
''I don't know what planet you were on, if you think you
should celebrate your 2-year-old's birthday by going out and
getting paralytically drunk,'' Judge Stephen Coyle told
Christina Maree Hart in the Dunedin District Court.
The 26-year-old Dunedin mother and student had a 1357mcg
breath-alcohol reading (the adult maximum is 400mcg) when
police spoke to her in the driveway of her Halfway Bush home
after she had travelled from Highcliff Rd about 8.45am on
June 14, prosecutor Sergeant Chris George said.
''At that level, I'm surprised you were even able to get your
keys in the car,'' Judge Coyle said. Another driver had
called police over concern at the defendant's erratic driving
in Portsmouth Dr.
Hart admitted she had been drinking and told police she had
her last beer about 5am that day.
But counsel Noel Rayner said Hart believed she had stopped
drinking about 2am. She had been out the night before with a
large group of friends and family to celebrate her son's
second birthday. Because she knew she would be drinking, Hart
had arranged to stay with a friend, who lived within walking
distance of the venue.
It was the first time she had been out with a group since the
death of her partner in January. She had been ''quite shut
down'' since then and this had resulted in her drinking
excessively at the birthday celebration.
Hart was very much against drink-driving and it had not
entered her mind she could be intoxicated when she woke early
and decided to go home, Mr Rayner said. She was not
consciously taking a risk by driving and was extremely
remorseful about the offending, not only for herself but for
the danger she had caused to others, including her child. She
was a first offender and had pleaded guilty at the first
Judge Coyle said Hart had been driving at 8.45am on a
Saturday, when parents would have been taking children to
Saturday sport.
''How you didn't hit another car and injure someone is beyond
He said he could not understand how she could celebrate her
son's second birthday by going out and getting ''so drunk'',
focusing on herself rather than her son. But the judge gave
her credit for no previous convictions, her early guilty plea
and the steps she was now taking to address her issues.
On her guilty plea to the charge of driving with a
breath-alcohol level of 1357mcg, Hart was sentenced to 200
hours' community work and disqualified from driving for 10

Wonderful, I subbed ricotta for the cottage cheese, I find that cottage cheese has to much much moisture in this recipe, otherwise made as stated. thanks littleturtle!...Kitten:)

Americans' view of Donald Trump is now identical to their view of Hillary Clinton, at 37% favorable and 58% unfavorable. Previously, Clinton has always had the more positive image.

The relationship between economic hardship and favorable views of Donald Trump is not as neat as some commentators have suggested. Those who like Trump tend to live in areas far from the Mexican border that are relatively unexposed to trade competition.
School districts can take concrete steps to create more brand ambassadors -- and engage more teachers.
To achieve the greater economic inclusion that Mexico needs, schools and government should work together -- casting a wider net to find and develop a new generation of business leaders that spans regions and socioeconomic classes.
School districts are missing out on engagement opportunities with current teachers who can influence new recruits and parents.
George H.W. Bush went into the 1988 convention trailing his opponent on the ballot and garnering so-so ratings for several key character traits. He came out of the convention with a new image and a commanding lead.
Melania Trump's pre-convention favorable rating is the worst of any potential first lady Gallup has measured since 1992, mainly because Democrats tilt strongly against her. Republicans are more positive, though many can't rate her.
More than six in 10 Americans think it is likely the U.S. economy will become cashless in their lifetime. Still, more say they personally like to have cash on them at all times than say they are comfortable without it.

Fewer Americans say they are making all or most of their purchases with cash, compared with what they say they did five years ago. But few indicate they have given up cash altogether.

Kyle what's so favorable. We all play each other you idiot. If you wanna talk football at least be a fan of the sport
R u serious west Virginia will not own the big 12 it will be Oklahoma again. Then k state. West Virginia will finish at best 4-5 th place
alls west virginia has to do is show up and the big twelve will fall to their knees. NOT
did you hear the one about the redneck and west v ????
WV is in for a shock!
No ou will own this like they have been doing
the big 12 is gunna be jumbled this year in who has THE team. texas has a very young team who did very good last year, oklahoma is always good, oklahoma state is hurting without weeden, tcu is looking rough, iowa state will be decent, kansas state will be good with their defense, kansas should definitely be better tham last year (hopefully), wvu will struggle with defense and losing the o-line will hurt, texas tech will be better, and baylor will be good if they find someone to replace rg3
i give it to either texas or ou
Hey wvballer you think west verginia is going to take over yeah right Texas longhorns are wvu sucks so does ou !!!!!!!!
Texas wins this year… they've got a great young team
West Virgina offense will be tough…Oklahoma and texas better pay attention–WVU is much Faster!
OU has the best chance to win the conference. But we need to keep our eye out on WVU and Texas. I just got done watching hours of WVU footage and they make me sweat a little.
Born and raised in WV and have followed their football ups and downs. Give them a chance and stay positive. We do have a candidate for the big H trophy. Go Smith!!!!!
