Classroom ABC or DEF
$74 per couple
Online Registration
To sign up for classes at LDS Hospital, Alta View Hospital, Riverton Hospital or Intermountain Medical Center register online or call 801-507-7731.
Lamaze Childbirth Class
— A 4 week course taught once a week from 7:00pm-9:30pm. Lamaze preparation for childbirth teaches that birth is normal, natural, and healthy. Although the course offers many of the same topics as the Third Trimester class, more emphasis is placed on coping strategies, pain relief, and involvement of the labor partner. The class size is smaller to help ensure more individualized instruction, and more time to practice breathing, relaxation, massage, and positioning to facilitate the birth process.

If you are on Medicaid, please register by phone (801-507-7731).
Class sizes are limited.
Pre-registration with payment is required for all classes.
Register for classes between your fourth and fifth months of pregnancy for the best options of classes available.
A class may be cancelled if enrollment is inadequate, but we will make every effort to reschedule you or return your total fee.
If you need to cancel a class, you can receive up to an 80% refund if you notify at least 3 days prior to the class starting. A 20% processing fee is deducted with your refund.
Other Intermountain Healthcare Childbirth Education Classes
To help you have a healthy pregnancy and prepare for your birth, a wide variety of other childbirth preparation classes are also offered at Alta View Hospital, Intermountain Medical Center and Riverton Hospital.

http://www.vintagerocker.com/forum/s...-for-th3M1ke-m Did you see it?
On topic - this line-up raises a lot of questions:
- will the 2-piece bridge be discontinued as well?
- why the move away from the 53/10s (P22) and 59/09s (Cu24)? Are the 57/08s that will replace the other pickups different from the current ones?
- no more McCarty? Seriously?
- why still no DGT and Tremonti stoptail options?
- what about a ME V?
Am excited to hear the rest of the changes to the line-up. The email quoted above sounds as if the list is not exhaustive.
The Brent Mason model speaks to me very much. I would prefer it to not have a middle pickup but that's not the end of the world - a push-pull pot swap can get the neck/bridge combo I'd want.
You're never too old for tater tots.

So, no pics of the new models yet?
1992 PRS Cu24 Tortoise Shell, "10",Birds, Reg Neck
2005 PRS 513 Brazilian Rosewood Orange
I'm sad that the Chris Henderson sig is being cut. I was in the market for an SC250 which has been discontinued for a while when the new CH was announced last year so I bought one. Now, I guess, if/when I'm in the market for another one I'll have to go used again. Oh well.
2 - The McCarty platform is used for other things, such as the 408, DGT and Paul's Guitar. I don't think it makes sense for it to stay as a regular model, plus the McCarty 58 was too expensive and didn't sell (at least here in the UK).
3 - As the Modern Eagle was always Paul's model, I think the Paul's Guitar is the new ME. As it doesn't have a rosewood neck any more, I guess that's why the name has changed.

In Feb.1999 I was diganosed with Breast Cancer at 54. There is no history of it in our family. I got my Mamograms every year but I found it with self exam. I got my mamogram right away and a ultrasound. I knew something was wrong and when the tec called in the Radioligist that confirmed my worse mightmare. With in a week I had the lump amnd 13 limpknodes removed. I was lucky as it was stage 1. I went thru the 30 Radation treatments with only missing a half day of work. I was a Rural Carrier at the time. I have since Retired with 31 yrs of service in McHenry, Ill. My first Great Grandaughter was born 3 weeks after my diganosis. I am Happy to repot that on 9-4-08 I am still cancer free. I made up my mind that I wasn't going to let it take me. I have a lot to live for I have 4 children 9 Grand children and 9 soon to be 11 Great Grand children. I have had 4 generations in the Race for the Cure with me. And have 5 generations now. I think it is very inportant to do self exams and get your mamograms yearly. It saved me.

Hey there Gang... It's been a busy spring... I've been rolling along drawing deathship ( for which issue1 hits the racks in 2 weeks!)... But in the mean time I've been able to do some fun li'l sketches... I've attached a few here!
#1 is BUMP PONY... well.. the "Bump Pony" is pretty much a machine that if you pull the lever it pretty much makes everything cease to exist... Only pull the lever if you must.... I was asked to draw a good old fashioned classic girl with rocket pack and domed helmet... I thought to myself, "How do people carry that heavy helmet".. then I remembered that everything is weightless in space. So I figured that I could make the helmet just as big as I wanted!
The second piece is a pic of The Penguin....Yes.. Yes.. there are LOTS of Joker pics... But where is the love for Oswald!!
Many Many more to come... Just as soon as I wrap up Deathship!

LiquidText software designed for active reading

Article Summary
The more ways in which you can engage yourself with what you're reading, the more likely you are to understand and remember it. It's a practice known as active reading, and it can involve taking notes, highlighting passages, setting aside snippets of important information, or even reading text aloud. While some programs already exist that facilitate the active reading of digital documents, a team from the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed what they believe is a better approach. It's called LiquidText, and it was developed around touchscreen technology.

Excel Under Pressure
- Paperback: $16.00 add to cart
"Anyone who feels that they tend to lose their confidence when the stakes are high can glean something from this analysis."
Sooner or later everyone encounters a situation in which the stakes are high and the outcome is vital. And even top performers can crumble when faced with such extreme pressure. But then there are the performers who thrive under such conditions. In Clutch, you'll meet:
According to Sullivan, clutch performance does not stem from an innate ability. It's a learned skill-the art of operating in high- stress situations as if they were everyday conditions. Even some of the most experienced and talented performers lack this skill-but Sullivan shows that anyone can develop it.

The Clark Invites Public to a Conversation with Darby English, Director of Research and Academic Program
For Immediate Release
August 30, 2013
Williamstown, MA—Darby English, the newly appointed Starr Director of the Research and Academic Program (RAP) at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute, engages in a conversation with RAP Associate Director David Breslin on Thursday, September 12 at 5:30 pm. The conversation is free and open to the public and will be held at Stone Hill Center.
The conversation will touch on English's intellectual interests and his past and current writing projects.
As Starr Director, English leads the program's international agenda of intellectual events and collaborations and oversees the Clark's library and its active residential scholars' program, all based on the Institute's 140-acre campus. English graduated from Williams College in 1996 with a degree in art history and philosophy and earned a doctorate in visual and cultural studies from the University of Rochester in 2002. He taught modern and contemporary art and cultural studies at the University of Chicago from 2003 until assuming the Starr Director position. Previously, he served as the assistant director of the Research and Academic Program from 1999 through 2003.
English is the author of How to See a Work of Art in Total Darkness (MIT Press, 2007). In addition to numerous articles, essays, and reviews, English is also a co-editor of Kara Walker: Narratives of a Negress (MIT Press, 2003; republished Rizzoli, 2007). He is currently completing work on a new book, 1971: A Year in the Life of Color, which studies social experiments with modernist art undertaken over a period just prior to that year.
About the Clark
Set amidst 140 acres in the Berkshires, the Clark is one of the few major art museums that also serves as a leading international center for research and scholarship. The Clark presents public and education programs and organizes groundbreaking exhibitions that advance new scholarship. The Clark's research and academic programs include an international fellowship program and conferences. Together with Williams College, the Clark sponsors one of the nation's leading master's programs in art history. The Clark receives support from the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
The Clark is located at 225 South Street in Williamstown, Massachusetts. The galleries are open daily in July and August (open Tuesday through Sunday from September through June), 10 am to 5 pm.

By Daryl Buchanan
Mayor Phyllis Marcuccio officially welcomed Barbara Burns Matthews as the new City Manager during Monday's weekly city council meeting. Matthews began her first day on the job Monday. The Mayor and Council previously announced on July 9 that they had chosen Matthews out of a field of three candidates.
Matthews leaves the City Manager position in neighboring Takoma Park to come to take the job in Rockville. She served in that position since 2004. Matthews is replacing Scott Ullery who retired last December. Her start at the helm also marks the filling of two major positions within the City after Doug Barber was hired as the new City Clerk.
"I wanted to say what an honor it is to be selected as Rockville's new City Manager. I'm really thrilled to finally be on board. It's been a long time since I accepted the position and I thank the Mayor and Council for their patience as I fulfilled my duties to Takoma Park," said Matthews. "I hope in the weeks to come I get the opportunity to meet many members of the community."
Matthews' hiring also marks a historical moment for Rockville. While there has been female acting City Managers, Matthews is the first woman to sit as the fulltime City Manager.
Also on the agenda was an update from Steve VanGrack the Chair of the Charter Review Commission. VanGrack spoke to the council on the goals the commission had set in relation to areas where Rockville can be improved.
• Participation: Increase citizen participation at all levels of City government, in particular in the election of the Mayor and Council,
• Responsiveness: Promote City governance that listens, represents, responds and is accountable to the citizens, communities, challenges and progress of the City,
• Effectiveness: Effectuate City governance that reflects and serves the needs of a growing and diverse community within a growing and diverse region, in an equitable and inclusive manner, and
• Leadership: Encourage, bring forth, develop and facilitate citizen leadership.
"These are things we seek to do better. These are goals we feel strongly about and unanimously supported," said VanGrack.
VanGrack also took time to talk about the town hall meetings the commission will be holding starting October 2. The commission is seeking input from city residents on a number of matters that include council size, length of terms, voting methods, full time versus part time Mayor and Council, and a number of other matters.
VanGrack says there will be handouts at all the town hall meetings for residents and depending on the size there may or may not be a time limit for speakers.
Following the presentation Councilmember Bridget Newton inquired if the commission was getting all the research and information they required. VanGrack said the commission was getting the necessary information citing past records from Charter Review Commissions and help from city staff.
But he also expressed interest in seeking information from within the city instead of going to outside sources. "We're Rockville. We're different. We can listen to what other people do or have done, but we're a little different. I give much greater weight to what we do in Rockville," said VanGrack.
The next Charter Review Commission town hall meeting is scheduled for October 9 at the Rockshire Community Center at 2351 Wootton Parkway at 7 p.m.

Hay everyone,
Lovely work here!
Here's my final.

if only my computer hadnt crashed I would have got something :(
awesome entries all!
Attachment 1666647
Awesome round everyone. The voting poll is up and EOW #201 is up as well!
hmm, why is possible vote on my work, and i cant see my image ?
Some comments:
Vibhas_virwani Good job on this bro, the mood is nice and the atmosphere reminds me of the movie Willow. Mellow yet foreboding, and the mountains in the distance enhance the mood of there being a long journey ahead. Improvement-wise, this would be better with more defined details in the landscape. Also, cool backpacks.
AnthonyChristou This might sound vaguely irrelevant but I thought your aesthetic decision-making was what compromised the overall success of this environment. For example, the character's hat design and the consistent pattern of vertical stalactite-like formations on the coastal cliffs - they all look very similar which is fine, but for me it comes off like it's predictable. The blue-tusk helmet/helm that your character is wearing also seems forced. If this is a valid critique (I'm not sure yet lol) then I'd suggest just being more free-spirited, not so constricted. Maybe more looseness will spread around the creativity that you have and ensure it's distributed well to keep the viewer on their toes… also, the dirt trail seems to be going right off the cliff on the left. The positives: The perspective and positioning as well as the scope of the image is nice! I liked that aspect. Hope anything helps, discard anything that doesn't ring true to you, just my thoughts.
Merl1n This is sick. It bleeds graphic novel and oozes awesome. Nearly gave me an erection. You got my vote!
Benedikt Like I said in your sketchbook, you did a beautiful job here with the color scheme and the tangible "substance" of the man's surroundings. This scenery could literally be an overarching theme for a man's spiritual journey through the decrepit tree of life towards golden-hued gates to find meaning in his life. Could be the representation of someone conquering evil and becoming good again - a long journey indeed for someone in that psychological situation. Interesting method of doing the snow, too.
Kingkostas This kicks ass on many levels. It has a little bit of abstract Phantom Menace going on as well as a dash of primitive industrial intergalactic. It sits with me very well and I'm glad you took this route. Constructively speaking, I think the sunlight could be brighter and more pronounced looking. Also, the people walking on the bridge could be a little more visible but I understand that if this was abstractly done, don't mind my suggestions. My interpretation is that this is some kind of underground gate to a long tunnel, maybe a continental one where you travel using an advanced form of propelling technology harnessing solar power. Additionally, it could be under construction and in the testing stages. You got my vote!
LukasN Excellent work, but something communicates to me that it needed slightly more color contrast. Like if there was a cerulean blue stream then stead of a pale, lightly shimmering one, or if the reaper-like stone figures, heads positioned downwards and adorning cloaks - if they were maybe made of a different material than what they are standing on. It's not really a critique, just a minor view if what I might've done in the designing process. Nice work Lukas. I love the mountain and the trail of birds is a nice finishing touch.
KvenH Ahh, He-Who-Is-Hard-On-Himself-Even-Though-His-Art-Is-Elite… that is a pristine environment. Your other WIP you had going had equal potential. I really like what you did with this and how calm, smooth and effortless you make it seem. You got my vote!
BenJackson That looks like a hazardous journey they are about to undertake. This is nice Mr. Jackson. You used mountain slopes to a good effect and you were unrelenting with the amount of resistance placed before these travellers… or stragglers. Visually pleasing and a sight to take in (I would be running if a volcano exploded that close to me)
Slabiak Awesome adventure-esque composition and creativity here, slabiak. When I first saw your WIP I knew that this would be an unusual but rewarding concept and it turned out to meet my expectations. You took big risks and pulled it off.. you got my vote!
Mooglesarelittle This was simplistically executed due to as you said, time constraints but really there is a great environment lying before me. Has a lot of potential to be much better when it's more complete and you sharpen the finer details. Good job Moogles.
Cavvie This is cool stuff, a bit half-hybrid-WIP-yet still could pass off as a moonlit mountainous wilderness. A good exercise.
Jodali I'm enjoying looking at this one. It gives off vibes of Middle eastern flare, maybe indigenous. A city inside of a giant ridge that goes on for miles. The sky is really nice to look at too. Foreshadowed elements that a storm is coming.
AdrianNagorski Your spirit and instincts brought you to this piece - I've noticed over the past year or so that you've really elevated with your craft. Working hard at it has paid off as it looks like you've brought your style to the next level. I liked this one, it feels like Formula A for Epic Fantasy-driven Environments. Time will continue to bring the best out of you my friend. Good work.
BishopSix lol that is raw. Easily would be a book cover for best selling science fiction. Slap Ben Bova or Arthur C. Clarke's name on it and let's call it a day. I would've never expected something like this as an interpretation of this topic. Bridging the gap between planets - the Great Pathologic Wall of Bina (binary) I'm almost waiting for some intriguing dialogue to spark between the space-travelers.
EsDeus I'm not entirely sure what's going on here but I do know that it's pretty epic. A cross between Devil May Cry, Gladiator and a visual experience of the end of the world taking place in a magical kingdom where this deity is trying to save his homeland. Great imagination, esDeus. As for the "long journey ahead" element, I think this covers it - being that there will be a long, arduous rebuilding process after the meteor shower.
JakeG Very interesting scene. Firstly, I thought the red flags were a strategic and wise touch. The red gives this spice, some distinct flavor to grab a hold of and seems to be of Asian influence. The overall architecture was done well and wasn't predictable - the mountain in the backround also looks to be of a different texture and has an ethereal quality/source to it. Nice work Jake.
ThomD Every time you participate I'm always pondering to myself: his style is raw. You have a visually striking quality to all of your work and this is no different. This was raw - makes me wonder how she's going to get in there. She'd be lucky if she had a sturdy motorboat. I don't think I'd want to swim over there, especially in pants and without a weapon.
Hyunjae Underdeveloped but looks to have potential - the set up is smart and you leave room for many options to come to the surface.
SLIMEface So this is what Amish people look like… kidding. Very solid execution as a whole here, you've got inhabitants, a full view of the city and surrounding scenery that's nice to look at. Small observation, those blue domes would look like smurf breast from the skies, haha.
Taffyjones Brazen, chaotic and steamy, just how I like it. (jk) It has an unmistakable "illustration to a story during a stressful moment for the character" feel to it. I know it's not enjoyable to wade through those wobbly rope bridges where the wood is close to burning as you tread with intense caution. Doesn't that dude know there's an elevator on the side of the cliff? I mean what the…
Dkmaster If that's you in your avatar, you look sort of like Kevin Randleman, the former UFC/Pride fighter. Lmao @ "lift broken." Nice.. That is brutal. If I was that guy I would consider just doing a wheelie off the edge. Cool enviro, sir.
Leoz Excellent.. There is a story waiting to be told. I didn't even notice the sniper rifle until just now - adds something else to the image it didn't possess before. The graffiti to the left is also a welcome addition.
JanJager Well you already know you did a beautiful job with this. I don't have anything more to say about this.
Dranyer - This was dark and moody in an English/Norse way, but that could just be because weather over there is usually dreary like this. I lived in England for two years and could never get used to how gray the weather was everyday - gray and wet. This was a tight image, it had everything it needed to drive the concept home. Monolith in the distance, floating island/castles and serenely pleasing greenery wherever it fit in between.
fossv Cool and icy. The makings of a stellar winterscape.
Corrick How goes it Sir Corrick? This was traditional early 19th century sci fi at it's best and most pulp appearance. I wonder what novels you have been reading lately…
vision storm, this looks cool, vision. I like the toxic green hue in the sky and how it reflects off of the rocky pillars/miniature pyramid formations. The only problem that I can say lies within the piece is that it looks like the travellers have arrived at the end of their long journey. Not that there couldn't be a long one ahead of the sequence taking place in the image, which causes me to think about what occurs after they arrive at this menacing castle. Maybe it's Hogwarts and the two travelers are Harry and Dobby, lol..
Droog Have you ever read the Captain Underpants series? I could see this as a grown up version of that comic, of course with less underwear around the hero's head and more of a serious superhero costume. The color schemes in this were really nice to look at. This was a well rounded entry.
Weatherby Pretty raw work, I love how heavyset everything is, like it's made of a thick substance and the weight of the journey is falling on the shoulders, and antlers, of the journeymen. The moon and wild western themes coinciding is also nicely worked in there.
Ochrehand I'm a fan of your work; this was on the plainer side, conceptually speaking from you but it was still a satisfying place to behold and take in. I wish there was more to the story - a subtle hint at what's to come, but mystery is also a blessing in disguise too. Decent work from you, Ochre.
My votes went to merl1n, kingkostas, Kvenh and Slabiak.
Great round! Happy 200 and Merry Christmas to all...
Well shit, I missed the deadline on this due to my new job. Oh well.. >_<
Great job everyone! Congrats on turning 200 EOW. Vulgar', keep doing what you're doing. It's awesome. EOW went from being an often sparsely attended activity to being one of the more participated in weeklies on the site and that's a credit to what a rad job you've been doing.
Really awesome work from everyone. With such a broad topic to judge entries on I felt like I had to come up with a new variable to factor into my judgement (in addition to rendering, originality, composition and other formal considerations), which was: how interested am I in what the rest of the "long journey" looks like? There are a lot of epic scenes and beautiful sweeping landscapes, but there was only one entry that truly caught my imagination and made me think "wow, if this is just the beginning, I want to see what the rest of the journey looks like!" and that entry was JanJager's beautiful work.
I must also give big ups to slabiak whose concept I loved, but felt the execution could have been tighter and more focused on environmental considerations, rather than the dynamics of an illustration.
Alright, so something is going on with the integrity of the voting right now. I'm going to assume they are either spambots or someone is getting their friends to vote for them which goes against what this competition is all about. I understand there's prizes at stake so it would seem like the appropriate time to get others to vote for you so you can recieve them, but again, that's not the purpose of the community activity forum. If there's a voter who registered within the last 2 days or so, I'm deleting those votes.
Sorry for any misunderstanding.
I was checking out the people who voted for one person in particular and a lot of them registered yesterday or today and haven't posted anything on the forums. Then I noticed the last person to view their profiles was you, which saved me the time from having to message you. Keep up the good moderating!
Happy Holidays, everyone!
Slabiak. Love this one. My personal fav!!

worst mistake kc has made by taken that fat pig Andy Reid as there next coach he will do same to kc as he did to phildelphia BIG FAT NOTHING
Reports: Andy Reid, Chiefs agree on contract
The Kansas City Chiefs have reached an agreement with Andy Reid to become the team's next head coach, pending legal review, according to Adam Schefter and Chris Mortensen of ESPN.com.
The news follows Friday morning reports of the Chiefs parting ways with general manager Scott Pioli.
The Chiefs moved quickly to be the first team to interview Reid shortly after he was fired by the Philadelphia Eagles on Dec. 30 after 14 years with the team. The Cardinals and Chargers reportedly were also interested in Reid, but did not have the opportunity to interview him.
Reid is expected to have extensive power over the Chiefs' football operations, and reportedly has already reached out to fired Eagles defensive coordinator Juan Castillo, and has been rumored to have interest in bringing in a general manager or director of personnel. He has previously worked with fired Cleveland Browns general manager Tom Heckert and Green Bay Packers director of operations John Dorsey.
From @mortreport and me: Andy Reid has reached agreement to become next HC of Chiefs, pending review of contract by each side's attorneys.—
Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) January 04, 2013
idc if kc wins or not all this means to me is one kc has a better coach than the raiders & 2 if they make better moves than we do this offseason we will come in last!!!!!!!!!! damn sliver & black have one punk @$$ head coach & a very cheap @ss gm! another long season. oh well best part is to see what other teams will do kc made a good move let's see if the jacksonville jags will move on up or forever be the biggest joke of the nfl!
A coach and front office (just read they fired Piehole too) that will get the offensive tools to score touchdowns instead of being satisfied with field goals and punts is a good start. A QB in the draft and a veteran QB too plus a couple better targets to throw to after getting rid of butterfingers Bowe and the oft injured Moeaki would put this team in not too horrid of a place.
5 years is too damn long to wait and I really believe that with different coaching (read good coaching), better quarterbacking and a few additions to shore up some positions we can be at the very least wildcard contenders. Doesn't help having Manning in our division though. Bronco's really got it going now, I will give them that!
Tell me, Chief fans, is the team just a coach away from success? They were terrible this year, and I think Andy is facing a five year rebuilding job, at least. Can he do it quicker?
@VictorHirst KC will continue to be the whipping boys of Denver as long as Manning is around. Me thinks it will continue after Manning. KC has a long way to go, but keep optimistic. At least they're not on the Royals level yet.
Also, isn't it concerning that Reid is looking to bring in other fired parties to join in on the fun in KC? Wouldn't have been my approach.
was not aware Pioli got fired. wtg Clark Hunt !! now we can move upwards, and I agree with your points. Baldwin @ WR is not going to be what we expected. And yes, in this day's NFL you need TWO good QB's (at least a decent back-up that's NOT a Brady Quinn et al). The Chiefs "D" is just fine, they were over-worked in most games due to the fact our offense was 1-2-3 out more than any team in the NFL.
I'll stand corrected on my statement below. There is hope now.
@Rickapolis Chiefs do not need to rebuild. They are a few key positions(QB! mainly) away from making serious noise. If you recall, many picked them to win the West this year with all the talent on paper. This is not a rebuild situation. They need a coach. And they got one.
@Kid Tiger @Rickapolis I hear Bradford is available and he lives nearby!
@Kid Tiger @Rickapolis Okay. Good luck.

23-Year-Old Kung Fu Expert Get Groped By 2 Teens While Jogging & Whoops Their Punk Azzes!
Description: "Two teenagers got a painful surprise last Friday when a woman they tried to attack turned out to be a martial arts expert. Priscilla Dang was going for a run in a Vancouver, Wash., neighborhood when she was stopped by two teenagers, ages 16 and 18, on bikes, according to KATU. One of the teens pulled in front of the 23-year-old and "made eye contact with [her]," while the other reportedly groped her from behind. Little did the alleged attackers know, Dang has been studying kung fu for the past 18 years at the Summit Wushu Academy, a martial arts school owned by her family. Dang immediately threw the teen in front of her down to the ground and made him apologize, The Colombian reports." - NY Daily News

WATERFORD, N.Y. – Only eight days before Christmas, a First Street home in Waterford was destroyed by a fire on Tuesday.
Fire officials believe the blaze at 19 First Street started in the basement and worked its destruction all the way to the attic, leaving the home a total loss.
Although Christmas presents were destroyed, the community is now pulling together to try and give the family a happy holiday.
Evon Dixon-Hill, a victim of the house fire, lived in the home with her children and grandchildren for six years. On Tuesday night, she watched the home be destroyed.
"All my granddaughters' toys were in the house," said Dixon-Hill. "My daughter was staying with me and my granddaughter, so all of her Christmas stuff is gone."
Neighbors and the community are now banding together, trying to salvage some of the Waterford family's holiday spirit. A fund was set up on Wednesday through KeyBank to help the family get back on their feet.
Marilyn Bazar lives directly across the street, and says the fire victims were good neighbors.
"I could feel the heat coming right through my window and those flames were coming this way," Bazar described.
Bazar sheltered the family in the hours after the fire, giving them something warm to drink.
The fund was set up by the Waterford Lions Club. Those who wish to donate can do so at any KeyBank to the "Waterford Fire Victims Fund."
A teacher from the Waterford-Halfmoon School lives in the same neighborhood as the family and said the school sent out a notice to faculty asking for donations for the family as well.
The three children who lived in the First Street home are staying with their father.
The rest of the family is being helped by the Red Cross.

AUSTIN -- Whether they're patrolling the State Capitol or poring over case files, state employees could be getting a raise.
A first draft of the Senate budget aims to ease the burden on overworked employees such as those in the Department of Family and Protective Services (DFPS) and give state workers a bump in pay. The initial proposal crafted by the Senate Finance Committee is a work in progress, and must still be formally written up and approved by the committee before making its way to the Senate floor.
"There's a lot of emphasis on mental health in this bill," state Sen. Tommy Williams (R-The Woodlands), chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, told KVUE Thursday. "There is new money for DFPS. There are monies to shore up the employees who work there, to make they have the equipment and the systems that they need and to reduce turnover of the state employees."
"There's a proposal there for a state employee pay raise," said Williams, while cautioning that the conversation is still in the beginning stage. "It's early in the process. We need to let our House colleagues have a bite at that."
The proposal calls for a three percent across the board raise for state employees, many of whom have not seen their pay increased since 2008. At the same time, the state's population has continued to increase while the overall number of state employees has slightly decreased. A 2011 report by the State Auditor's Office indicated a 16.8 percent turnover rate among full- and part-time state employees.
"There's an explosion of need for basic services because of that increase in population," said Seth Hutchinson, organizing coordinator for the Texas State Employees Union (TSEU). Hutchinson says the combination of increased workloads and fewer employees results in poorer service, an outcome he suggests can be particularly dangerous when it comes to critical front line agencies such as Child Protective Services (CPS).
"When a caseworker has too many cases on their docket, kids fall through the cracks," said Hutchinson. "When that happens, kids get hurt and sometimes die."
While he calls the committee's interest in giving state employees a raise good news, Hutchinson says three percent would amount to a relatively minor increase for the average state employee earning around $36,000 a year. According to TSEU, Texas public employee salaries would have to increase by $13,000 to return to their 1987 purchasing power, a conclusion reached by comparing an 80 percent increase in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) to 35 percent in accumulated cost of living raises over a 26-year period.
"Three percent is not enough. It might meet the inflation for one year, but that doesn't include next year or last year or the previous three years when state employees didn't get raises," said Hutchinson. "We are asking for a $3,600 a year across the board raise for every single state employee. We see that as a down payment on getting state employees back to their 1987 buying power."
Meanwhile, the fight for funding in other areas such as transportation infrastructure, water and education continues. Hutchinson suggests rather than each state interest competing for funding, lawmakers should find a way to address them all.
"The stresses of a growing population of Texas affect everything. State services, education, the infrastructure, it all needs it. Texas has great needs because it has a growing population, and the legislature needs to find a way to pay for that. That's about the future of every Texan. We aren't going to continue to have a great state if we aren't investing in the future, and investing in the future means paying for these things now."
Both chambers unanimously approved a $6.6 billion supplemental budget bill intended to finish paying the state's health care and education obligations for the 2011 session. A final version providing $4.5 billion for Medicaid and roughly $1.4 billion for public education will soon head to Gov. Rick Perry's desk.
"We have gone back and taken care of the Medicaid bills that were not payed for," said Williams. "We've reversed the Foundation School [Program] payment that was delayed in the last budget, and the speed-ups that were anticipated in the last budget in tax collections have been reversed. All of that is in a package of three bills that's over in the House now."
"I think overall we have a very good bill," Williams explained. "The pieces that are still missing, and they'll come later, are the state water plan, the funding of the state water plan, and we need very desperately additional funding, new funding for highway construction."
Democratic lawmakers had hoped to use the first supplemental budget to restore the $5.4 billion cut from education by the 82nd Texas Legislature. While unsuccessful in bid to include more education funding through the Senate Finance Committee process, state Sen. Wendy Davis (D-Fort Worth) says she secured an agreement from Williams to consider additional education funding in a second supplemental bill to be filed later in the session.
"It better happen," said Davis. "It was his commitment that that would be strongly considered as part of going forward in the Finance Committee process, but we won't go down without a fight on this. Not only do we have an opportunity in that supplemental to make a request for funding for public ed, but there's about to be a request for expenditures from the rainy day fund."
"If we'd known $8.8 billion in additional revenues for that biennium, the 12-13 biennium, none of the cuts to public education would have needed to occur," explained Davis. "I hope that when we have a conversation about what our priorities are and our willingness to open this sacred rainy day fund for purposes of roads and water, we'll agree that children are worth even more than those two items are."
Williams says the current increase in funding for schools is largely aimed at reducing disparities between districts in an effort to make the system more equitable, and any overall increase in the funding formula will have to be determined after the legal battle over the issue is resolved. He argues money from the rainy day fund won't provide a long-term fix.
"I don't think that's a good use of our resources," said Williams. "We're going to have a special session to deal with this between now and then, and I think that we're far better off making sure that we address the court's concerns, and it doesn't serve the school districts or the public to just give them money that they really can't spend in the current biennium because they're so far into the current school year."
As far as what the next supplemental bill will address, Williams says the committee is awaiting information from various state offices.
"There's a property value update for schools," said Williams. "There's an enrollment update that will come in in March and we'll have the effects of that in April. Then the Health and Human Services Commission will give us some updates on their caseload growth and cost growth during the current biennium, so all those have to get trued up."
Despite the heat over education funding and simmering disagreements with party leaders over health care, a number of lawmakers have privately observed the overall process has transacted with less bluster and more collegiality in 2013 compared to in 2011.
"There's some fundamental differences between the two parties," said Williams. "But what I think you've seen, and it's not just me, I think it's the entire committee and I would say in a larger sense the legislature, is that we're trying to find that middle road to make government work for our citizens of our state."
As the 83rd Texas Legislature crosses the constitutional 60-day mark and may legally begin debating bills next week, smooth as that road has been thus far, the bumps ahead may be swiftly approaching.

Freshman Gabby Williams, sophomores Adriana Newell, Tiare Fonoimoana, Cherish Navarroza, junior Nyasha LeSure and senior Amanda Sharkey will compete at the 44th annual Arcadia Invitational high school track and field meet Friday and Saturday.
The meet is held at Arcadia High School, which is 17 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles.
Historically, the Arcadia Invitational is the nation's premier high school track and field showcase and has produced 24 national records as well as 125 athletes who have gone on to compete in the Olympic Games.
Last year, just under 4,000 athletes competed from more than 600 high schools in the event.
Williams and Newell will have a busy weekend. Williams is competing in the 100m hurdles, high jump, 4x100m relay, 4x200m relay and 4x400m relay. Newell is scheduled for four events: the 100-meter dash, 4x100m relay, 4x200m relay and 4x400m relay.
Sharkey will be a part of those three Raider relays, while Fonoimoana will be on the 4x200m and 4x400m relays and Navarroza will be the fourth member of the 4x100m relay squad.
LeSure will join Williams in the high jump.

Ok so i am 7 weeks 1 day, and my boobs and my lower stomach itch
something fierce! Is this natural? I know the skin stretching will
cause you to itch, but so soon? I don't even have much of a bump. What about you ladies?
Between the winter weather and hormonal changes of pregnancy, I would say this is totally normal. You might buy a tub of cocoa butter and go crazy with it. I loved the creams designed for pregnant bellies, but the 2nd time around the budget was tighter and I used the cocoa butter with vitamin e. It didn't have the same satin texture as the other creams, but if helped with dryness and itching.
Yes, this is natural. I had extreme itching when I was pregnant. I can't remember how early in the pregnancy but I remember having it for a long time. I also used coco butter cream and lotions. I was always scratching my belly and breast.
I'm 15 weeks and I'm right along with you. Sometimes I have to use my boyfriend to hide me so I can itch when in public! lol
I've been itching insanely too! The dry winter mixed with being in the wind for my job and my tummy starting to stretch are all factors (I think). This has actually had a great consiquence though, because my husband has taken to rubbing baby lotion on my skin a couple times a week. It's a great way for us to keep our bond strong and maintain intimacy even when I'm not feeling very sexy, and it's soooo nice to use the Lavender Sleepytime baby lotion right before bed!
I'm pretty sure nothing (and everything) is "normal" right now . Itching is not uncommon during pregnancy though you should keep an eye on it, if it becomes a problem or looks like something worse you should see a doctor right away to prevent it from getting worse. In the meantime use it as an excuse to get a little closer with your significant other... it'll not only help your itching but boost your relationship too!
It could be a pregnancy rash called PUPPS. I gave birth almost 7 weeks ago, and I still have it. It usually starts itching in your stretch marks, and spreads to most of your body. It has little white bumps, and if you scratch enough it will bleed and scab up, and its really ugly. It is horrible itching, and you will go crazy scratching. Talk to your doctor, the sooner the better, and they should send you to a dermatologist. Mine put me on a steroid cream (which is totally safe for the baby) and a prednisone taper, which are pills you take for a month, and they stop the itching. They also prescribed me some benadryl to help me sleep. It really doesn't help with the itching, but it will give you enough relief to get some sleep.
I got super sensitive and itchy from the start with my first and had c-sections so with my second and now 3rd pregnancy almost over the only thing that has changed is that my back is ungodly itchy. Probably since I'me heavy in the front with baby my back is being pulled and stretched so I have my hubby rub thick lotion on my back every chance I get. I'm fair skinned and also have sensitive skin and the cocoa butter was too heavy for me personally but I absolutley LOVE bath and Body works body butters....I can put it on in the morning and it will last all day until I go to sleep when i rub more on before I snooze.

Apples and nuts are a classic—and healthful—combination, especially when you cut back on the saturated fat that typically tops this sweet treat. Our version is just as delicious, and allows the flavor of the hazelnuts to shine through. A dollop of Vanilla Cream or scoop of vanilla frozen yogurt finishes this homey dessert beautifully.

Cigarette packs are displayed at a convenience store Monday in New York. A new anti-smoking proposal would make New York the first city in the nation to keep tobacco products out of sight in retail stores. Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the goal is to reduce the youth smoking rate. The legislation would require stores to keep tobacco products in cabinets, drawers, under the counter, behind a curtain or in another concealed spot. They could only be visible when an adult is making a purchase or during restocking. (AP Photo/Mark Lennihan)

TSPSG is intended to generate and solve "travelling salesman problem" (TSP) tasks. It uses the Branch and Bound method for solving. Its input is a number of cities and a matrix of city-to-city travel costs. The matrix can be populated with random values in a given range (which is useful for generating tasks). The result is an optimal route, its price, step-by-step matrices of solving, and a solving graph. The task can be saved in an internal binary format and opened later. The result can be printed or saved as PDF, HTML, or ODF. TSPSG may be useful for teachers to generate test tasks or just for regular users to solve TSPs. Also, it may be used as an example of using the Branch and Bound method to solve a particular task.

Here's what happens after you do botox.More young women are needling their face to smooth out lines that hardly exist yet.
By Carson Griffith
Botox: It's not just for Real Housewives anymore.
Young women in their 20s make up 30 percent of Botox fans, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. And the number of teenagers springing for Botox-coined "teentox"- has risen 800 percent in the last year alone, a recent CBS report said.
Botox babies might not realize that the prickly procedure, which involves paralyzing wrinkles and lines with toxin injections, doesn't instantaneously transform your mug into a flawless dream. This was the case for Christina, 29, who first got a combination of Botox and wrinkle-filler Juvaderm at the age of 26, with the encouragement of her friends. "We got it as a package deal together," she explains. At the time, she had it injected "in between my eyebrows, throughout the majority of my forehead, and above my eyebrows," but admits: "I don't think anyone can even tell (that I got Botox) but me."
If you, like Christina, are in your twenties and entertaining the idea, consider what actually goes down after that needle pieces your skin.

Ouch! Okay, so there was a pinch. But numbing ointments and/or shots might help with the pain.
"The weirdest part of it for me is the instant 'I can't move my forehead feeling,'" Christina says. "My face feels tighter and like I have less control over it. It's annoying." Christina says a couple of blood drops are normal. She adds: "I can't see the results off the bat."
"Some people do feel a mild, headache-y feeling afterwards, so they take Advil or Tylenol," says Brian Bonanni, MD, of Gotham Skincare.
Doctors commonly offer patients ice packs to hold on areas that are injected. As for visible bruising, it's different for every patient.
"Because you are injecting small amounts of liquid, you can notice some bruising or swelling, which goes away in 24 hours," says Dr. Bonanni. "The full effect of Botox takes a couple days. They normally say three to five days, and the full effects can take up to two weeks. It's different for everyone."
"No one can ever tell I've gotten it right afterwards, which really is one of the best parts of it," Christina gushed. "I've gone right back to the office afterwards, and go out that night."
Juvaderm, however, which she has had injected into her upper-lip on two separate occasions, was a different story.
"It caused swelling and some bruising that took a couple days to go away," she admits, saying the injection spots on the inside of her lips were particularly dark purple and "gruesome to look at." "The right side of my lip drooped more than the left side for about a day and a half until the Juvaderm settled, but I think I was the only one who could notice... I hope," she says.

"I don't have very many wrinkles so it's hard to tell when the Botox starts to fade," Christina says.
"Until that one to two week period, you don't know what the effect is really," Dr.Bonanni explains. Patients new to Botox and fillers are sometimes unaware of this. "I get people calling up three days later about not seeing it, and after that one week period they'll say 'Okay, never mind,'" he said.
Christina reports that it takes about a week for her to really see the full results. "At about five days my skin will look shiny and perfect," she says.
Still, "financially, I probably just should have waited," Christina admits. Botox that what would have cost her about $650 set her back $250 because of the special package deal. But on top of the agreed-upon fee, she ended up paying an additional cost for Juvaderm to have her upper-lift "slightly" injected. "The first time I went I think the cost was just a little over $500," she explains.
"It's so expensive... I would have been better off waiting until I was at least 30 to have tried it for the first time, like I had originally planned," she says. "It's expensive and addictive, and makes you more judgmental of yourself," she admits.

My OH has started using chia seeds on his cereal, as a general health benefit, but also as part of an effort to reduce his cholesterol.
I figure that it wouldn't hurt to start including them in other cooking, so I've made some gel from the seeds which I've just stirred a couple of spoonsful into my cold soy coffee....and survived...and which I am going to include in tonights pasta sauce.
I'm interested to hear if anyone else is a regular consumer of the seeds, and if so if you have any suggestions of ways to include them in our food.
In particular I'd like to make them into a biscuit/slice kind of thing that we can grab as a snack...but it would have to be really healthy...so low in sugar and fat.

Officers with the Marshalltown Police Department, Marshall County Sheriff's office and other law enforcement agencies across the middle of the state will be participating in a GTSB special project, "Operation Midway."
This project will run Friday and Saturday. This multi-agency enforcement event will concentrate on speed and also the high risk drivers not wearing their seat belts and driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Officers will be concentrating their efforts on Highway 30 and 14 during the evening and nighttime hours.
These special events are conducted to reduce serious injury and fatality crashes and keep the public safe. It's not about writing tickets or the number of violations. The habitual violators and high risk drivers will be ticketed. Traffic safety is our goal and multiple officers will be enforcing it this weekend.

I love a Stila product. The shade of this lip color is great-Party Pink-it's a darker pink with a hint of plum to it. The application is easy and the packaging is great-love the size and twist up action for application. The only thing I don't love is that I'm used to Stila's lip glazes which all have a scent/flavor. This product has no scent or flavor and I wish it did! Guess I'll just have to pair it with a lip glaze. :)
I love this Stila lip color. It's a great quality and the color stays all day. It goes on smooth too!
This is the second Stila product that I have used and it does not disappoint. Super rich color...perfect when I want a deep rich red or I can tone it down under a gloss. My only criticism is when my lips are chapped it is more visible.
My one beauty goal for 2013 was to try a red lip. As an African American woman, I'm a bit skeptical about ordering certain colors online because I don't know how it will look with my Mocha skintone. I made the jump and I got this product in Rave Red. The color isn't fire engine red, it's a bit darker but I LOVE it. I'm in the military so I wear a uniform, this lip color wasn't too alarming in uniform which puts it at the TOP of my product list since I can wear it daily. The color stays ALL day. From my morning coffee to lunch and now home at dinner, this color has stayed. I will be purchasing again!
I love how long this lip color stays on! I add a tone-downed gloss to the red stick and it looks perfect! Gotta try the pink ASAP!
Beautiful color, easy to apply, goes on smooth, definitely enhances lip appeal! Love it! Thank you for sending this particular color, it goes very well with my complexion.
I received this in my Birchbox and loved it immediately. It keeps my lips moisturized and doesn't feel dry like some lipsticks do.
Love the color & how smooth it goes on. Firts time trying it & difintely would recommend it to all my girls..
I got this in the CWE box. Love it. Im so glad I purchased this lovely little pink box. I am going to purchase another for my Bestie today. lol
Beautiful red hue, easy to apply and stays put for quite some time. Looks great on me during the day and also at night. Matte finish, so I apply the lip color and then add a clear gloss if I want that shine for an extra pop!

Written by Michael King
I first became aware of Michael's work when I read the book Gardening With Grasses that he co-wrote with Piet Oudolf. It literally shifted my thinking about the composition of perennial gardens.
Michael has been living in the Netherlands for the past 20 years where he works as a garden designer, author and garden photographer. He has recently started a new blog, Perennial Meadows, which I highly recommend.
Michael has written books on flowering perennials, ornamental grasses and tulips as well as dozens of articles on a diverse range of subjects. His latest publication is a series of 6 e-books on perennial meadows. If you've read any of Michael's books and use them as resources and inspiration (as I do), this latest series of e-books won't disappoint. Fran Sorin
Do I really like having visitors in the garden? I certainly look forward to their arrival; rush around making sure everything is tidy, sweep the gravel paths as best I can, fill the kettle and load the coffee filter.
But then the problems begin: if they are early I notice, if they are on time, "why?" and if they are late I think I am not their day's top priority. In truth I am not sure I really want visitors in my little world. This is the place where I am learning my craft; it is a small garden in constant flux as I dig and replant trying out ideas and learning by my mistakes. For me a few plants wrestling with each other in a corner can represent an idea for a horizon-filling perennial meadow, but the visitor sees it differently. I joke and tell them what a terrible gardener I am and that if a plant can survive with me I know it is something that is worth recommending to others – hmm.
