In a Quilting slump....

It sounds to me like you're not really in a slump at all. You're getting lots done!
Hurray! You finally got your fabric. I'm so glad the mail lady actually went and looked for it in the back! A month is such a long time to wait for anything to arrive by mail... especially fabric!
I'm always interested in seeing how other people quilt their quilts. Making that decision is SO hard and I usually end up stippling. I have resolved now that my next quilt will be quilted using straight lines of some kind!

I always had trouble basting until I tried Sharon Schamber's method using two boards. She has lots of free videos on her website and basting a quilt for machine quilting as well as one on basting for hand quilting, plus many more. Look under the free area on her website Sharon Schamber Network for the videos.

Wow, you call what you've been up to a slump? Looks like you're in high gear. Everything looks wonderful....I love the fence rail.

Lovely quilt! Isn't this the second one you've finished for sleeping on the sofa due to snoring? (VBS) You should keep very warm. I like the baby blanket as well, very pretty. Stay warm and safe. Blessed be.

I found a list of UFO to be depressing, so I don't write it down. Looks like you are still getting lots done, maybe not as much quilting at the moment, a little break can be good.

If you call that a slump, then I am in a quilting coma!
Love your now finished UFO. Beautiful colors.
As for that postal system...we complain to our post office people all the time, because they cannot seem to get addresses correct. We are always getting our neighbors mail. It amazes me that they have that much back log while they are complaining that the internet has taken away so much of their business! Makes you wonder, doesn't it?

Andrea, that "slump" is pretty productive. I love the way you improvised for the wadding on that quilt.
I have had the "creased quilt backing blues" a couple of times. It is very frustrating.

It can be good to have a break from quilting sometimes and do something else. You can then come back to it with renewed enthusiasm. Not that it ever goes - it just changes!
I love your improvisation for the wadding - that's what it's all about as far as I'm concerned.

Congrats on your finish! I really like the colors in your rail fence, warm and cozy. Enjoy sleeping under your nice heavy quilt. I like heavier quilts too, I have to admit, the string quilt I am trying to get finished probably weighs 6 or 7 pounds! I just love the weight though.
Can't wait to see what you do with your belated Christmas gift. Just lovely. Seems to me you are starting to come out of your slump, and hopefully you will continue to be more and more inspired to create more beautiful things. hugs!

I understand the "slump" too, but I admire how much you have gotten done! It is frustrating indeed to have a quilt all ready to go just to find out the back isn't right...arrghh.....take care

This is an encouraging post. For me, my list of UFOs create my slumps. Some of them are not what I feel like doing so instead, I wind up doing nothing. Good for you... you are tackling them. Nice work too. Imagine what you will have done and keep going!

- Sew Create It - Jane said...
Good for you pushing for a little service at the post office! Glad you got your parcels. I thought the postman was suppose to deliver come rain shine or sleet! :o)
I've counted up my UFO's too and I've got something in the region of 17 or 18. The problem is that I don't LOVE the UFO's in the pile and the temptation to start and work on new things is immense!
- 21 January 2010 at 10:18
- Doodlebug Gail said...
Your new fabric from FQS looks gorgeous - glad the lady at the Post Office helped you out.
Love your UFO - and how wonderful that the fleece worked as a batting. I can only imagine how heavy it is.

- mereth said...
It was Keryn's quilt that inspired you, it's nice to know that others like what you're doing. I love your strippy backing, and the simple quilting, sometimes that's all it needs. Keep slumping along, you're still getting things accomplished by the look of it!
- 22 January 2010 at 13:30
- sewkalico said...
Your railfence looks great!
- 22 January 2010 at 17:28
- Guðrún said...
I think you have been productive and great to have a UFO done.
- 23 January 2010 at 14:37
A quilting slump maybe but definitely not a creative one. The baby blanket is beautiful.
- 23 January 2010 at 19:38
- Gina said...
Well done on the creative thinking for the wadding.
I love the way you handled the post woman. I would probably have been very sarcastic back and still be waiting for my parcels.

Give me back my hand! - Pan Am gold medallist seeks surgery on broken finger
Pan American Championships Combat Sambo gold medallist Matthew Colquhoun says he needs surgery after learning that the hand injury he has been carrying since the tournament is worse than previously thought.
Colquhoun had developed the injury in his gold medal winning performance in July but felt that it was not serious enough to pull out of his upcoming mixed martial arts (MMA)bout with Emre Orun in The Bahamas on August 4.
"I was hoping to come away from the Pan Am Championships with no injuries, but unfortunately, that did not happen," Colquhoun told The Gleaner. "My hand was a little swollen, but I still chose to do the MMA event in Bahamas.
I knew I could've finished the guy quickly, so I went in there , and I fought and won by submission because I didn't want to throw the hand."
Colquhoun, with his knee, had also broken Orun's nose in that bout before taking him down and forcing him to submit. However, after defeating the Turkish fighter, Colquhoun learnt that he had actually broken his left index finger.
"They had to pin it together because it's a clean break," he said. "They have to put it in place and pin it together. But the doctors told me I'd be good as new and ready to head back into the gym within two months, if I do the operation."
Colquhoun has since started a GoFundMe account, which can be found at www.gofundme.com/give-a-martial-artist-back-his-hand to raise the money needed for the surgery. His gold-medal performance in Mexico in July saw him claim his second title at the event. His first came in 2014, and he is the only Jamaican to have accomplished the feat.

Cargo Space
The 2017 Honda HR-V is back in Delray Beach, once again offering a terrific list of features and amenities, as well as a powerful and efficient powertrain and a plethora of standard safety equipment.

Delray Beach shoppers will find a lot to love on the 2017 HR-V, including its excellent amount of standard equipment, such as a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a 5-inch central display screen, Bluetooth connectivity, an auxiliary jack, 17-inch wheels, a configurable 60/40-split folding rear seat, a four-speaker sound system and a rearview camera.
The mid-level HR-V EX trim adds more luxury amenities to the SUV, and is recommend by several 2017 Honda HR-V reviews. Standard features on the EX include everything from automatic headlights, heated mirrors, automatic climate control and a 7-inch touchscreen to a six-speaker sound system, HondaLink smartphone integration, a sunroof and heated front seats.
Finally, the EX-L Navi comes with even more premium amenities like leather seating, satellite radio, voice recognition, navigation and roof rails.
Under the hood of the 2017 Honda HR-V in Delray Beach is a very economical 1.8-liter four-cylinder that rates at a nice 141 horsepower and 127 lb.-ft. of torque.

The 2017 HR-V comes with an excellent collection of standard safety systems that includes Honda's airbag suite, antilock brakes and other usual safety equipment. Adding to that is Honda LaneWatch, which comes on all HR-V models starting on the EX trim.

TDG Scholar is a search service that allows to browse a comprehensive bibliography database using a powerful query language. It also allows to export bibliography reports to HTML, BibTeX, and share them with others. The best way to command TDG Scholar is to wander about. Click on the "Bibliography" link in the navigation bar, and try your first queries using a few key words. For instance:
web databases John McCarthy Inf. Proc. Lett. SIGMOD
When you enter a few key words and press enter, TDG Scholar seeks for publications that include these terms, and will show them in (hopefully) a couple of seconds or less. Notice that the terms need not be exact, and that they may appear in any order in the title, the abstract, the journal or conference name, as well as other fields in our database. If you wish to tight the search, just quote your search terms. For instance:
"software engineering" "information extraction" "semantic web" "web wrappers"
Notice that search results can be browsed, i.e., if you click on the name of an author, TDG Scholar
will search for his or her publications and will show them to you. Similarly, if you click
on the name of a journal, a conference, or a publisher, TDG Scholar will also search for
publications hosted by that journal, conference or publisher. Note that you can refine your query as
you click if you tick the "Refine on Click" checkbox. For instance, if you search for publications on
engineering" and then tick the "Refine on Click" checkbox and click on author
Friedrich L. Bauer", you will only get his publications on this topic.
If you whish, you may export the results of your query to HTML or BibTeX, and link the resulting report from your home page or share it with the help of a bookmark manager.
In the introduction, you have become familiar with searching for bibliography. Searching for writers, journals or conferences is also very simple. For instance, click on the "Writers" link in the navigation bar, and enter these key words:
Edsger W. Dijsktra
What you get is a list of writers that are related to Edsger W. Dijsktra, either because they have co-authored an article with him, or because they have written a paper about him. You may try several writers at a time, and you will get the list of writers who are related to them all. For instance:
Edsger W. Dijsktra and Alan J. Perlis
Give also a try to our search for journals or conferences. For instance:
transactions int. journal image processing knowledge engineering IEEE Multimedia JISBD
Please, notice that the previous queries do not search for writers or journals whose names match the key words you have provided; instead, they search for publications that match those key words, but do not report on them, but on the writers of the journals that are related to them. This feature makes TDG Scholar very valuable. For instance, if you wish to know who has written a paper with Donald E. Knuth on "font caching", try the following query in the writer search service:
Donald E. Knuth and font caching
If you try the same query at the journal search service, you will get a list of journals in which Donald E. Knuth wrote on "font caching".
Our query language is very powerful, but it is quite simple to learn. You have already tried a lot of examples in the previous sections. For instance, try the following query:
Per Brinch Hansen
This will retrieve the publications that contain words that are somewhat similar to
Per", "
Brinch", and "
Hansen" somewhere, e.g.,
in the title, the writer list, the abstract, or even in the name of a journal, a conference, or
a publisher. If you wish to retrieve only publications in which "
Per Brinch Hansen"
is the author, try the following query instead:
author:"Per Brinch Hansen"
author is a search key, and we can handle a lot, e.g.,
year, or
type, just to mention a few.
For instance, let us search for classical publications by Niklaus Wirth on Pascal. It is as simple as issuing the following query:
author:"Niklaus Wirth" and title:Pascal and year < 1990
What about if you are interested in publications on Modula, as well? There is no
problem at all since our query language supports logical operators
and not, and
or. For instance, the following query refines the previous
one and retrieves publications on Modula, as well:
author:"Niklaus Wirth" and title:(Pascal or Modula) and year < 1990
Note that search terms are not interpreted literally, but as prefixes. That is, if you issue a query
like the following, then you will get publications that include prefix "
fair" in their title,
which includes terms such as
fair, itself,
fairly, or
Fairfax, VA, USA.
Searching for prefixes is a good technique, but, unfortunately, it falls short in cases in which
the term for which you are searching has irregular inflected forms. For instance, if you are interested
in papers about "
repairs", you might be interested in papers whose title contains terms
repair" or "
reparation", as well. In such cases, you need to instruct our search
engine to inflect the search term in which you are interested using key word
stem, namely:
stem repairs
But, what kind of repairs are you interested in? Maybe you are interested in repairing syntax errors in LR parsers. In such a case, you are looking for the following publications:
title:(stem repairs and "syntax error")
Notice that "
syntax error" is written within quotes. This tells our search engine
that prefixes "
syntax" and "
error" must appear in sequence. This is a
simple form of proximity, but our search engine allows for fuzzier proximity constraints. For
instance, if you wish to refine the previous query so that only publications in which
syntax error" is close enough to "
lr", which is a well-known
parsing technique, try the following query:
title:(stem repairs and "syntax error" near lr)
Sometimes, you are interested in publications that have been published in, say, journals or conferences. In such cases, you must include a type restriction in your query. For instance, the first query below returns the books by John E. Hopcroft, and the second one his journal articles:
author:"John E. Hopcroft" and type:book author:"John E. Hopcroft" and type:article
You might be interested in embedding a report with your favourite publications in your home page. This task is very simple, since you just need to copy the following tiny script at the place where you wish the report to be displayed:

 This report was served by TDG Scholar

The only thing you need to do is to replace
your-query by the query in which you are interested.
Please, do not remove the acknowledgement line; this is the price you have to pay to use this service.
By default, the reports that this script produces are plain text. Should you be interested in endowing it with a little colour, please, consider linking the following CSS Style sheet from the head section of your web page:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://scholar.tdg-seville.info/UserArea/Simple.css"></link>
Please, bear in mind that our services are just a proof of concept. They run on a modest computer that cost us €500, and we are not planning on investing more in hardware in the near future. Due to this extreme hardware constraint, we restrict searches to 100 publications, writers, journals, conferences, or publishers. This should be enough for average users.
We implement a highly optimising index-based searching procedure. It deals very well with popular queries, but takes a little more than expected with unusual queries. In such cases you are likely to get a time-out message. The solution to this problem is very simple: just wait a couple of minutes and try it again. The first time you submit a query, our search engine analyses it and devises an execution plan that is reused every time it gets a similar query. Even if you get a time-out, our search engine keeps working to serve your query. Thus, if you try it a little later, our search engine will retrieve the execution plan from our database and will serve your query as efficiently as possible.
Searching for authors, journals, or conferences is a little more difficult than it might be expected.
Please, recall that when you issue a query like "
Butler W. Lampson, we are not seeking for authors with a similar name, but for
authors who are related to him, as well. The algorithm that implements these queries is complex, but recall
we need to analyse your query only once; the second time it is executed, the execution plan is fetched from
our database and it is executed very efficiently.
Sometimes, you see a message like "Search took 0.156 seconds", but you feel that the search has actually taken more time to complete. Note that we heavily use XML and XSLT transformations to render the user interface; unfortunately, these technologies usually take a little more time than would be desirable. The previous message means that our system took 156 milliseconds to execute your query, but it does not account for the time required to render the interface or the network latency.
If you happen to find other problems, we would appreciate if you could, please, take the time to report
them to us. Please, send a message to
contact at tdg-seville.info and describe the problem
you've found as precisely as possible. Thanks!

Orthopedics Northwest affiliates with Virginia Mason Memorial
YAKIMA – Orthopedics Northwest (ONW), which provides adult and pediatric orthopedic and sports medicine care, is aligning with Virginia Mason Memorial (VMM) through a service agreement aimed at streamlining patient care and supporting the long-term availability of orthopedic services in the Yakima Valley.
Under the new alignment, Orthopedics Northwest will continue to staff and operate the clinic as an independent organization, while Virginia Mason Memorial will have other strategic responsibilities. Patients at Orthopedics Northwest will see no change to the process for making appointments and receiving care. The same staff will provide care in the same location, 1211 N. 16th Ave.
"The alignment is an affirmation of our relationship and signifies the investment both organizations make to provide high quality orthopedic care for our community," said Todd Orvald, president of Orthopedics Northwest. "This new relationship also confirms our efforts to ensure the local long-term sustainability of these services in the Yakima Valley."
"Health care affiliations are becoming more commonplace as providers work to maintain high-quality services, improve access to specialty care, advance physician recruitment and expand financial, clinical and information systems resources," said Virginia Mason Memorial President and CEO Russ Myers. "Ultimately, these collaborations benefit patients and communities they serve."
All Orthopedics Northwest physicians are board certified specialists who provide the highest level of expert care. A team approach allows ONW to provide a broad spectrum of specialty care including state-of-the-art diagnostic services, general orthopedics, spine care, wrist/hand care, sports medicine, arthroscopy, ankle/foot care, and joint replacement and reconstruction.
Orthopedics Northwest encourages anyone with questions to contact the office at (509) 454-8888.

When I was a kid, I never liked to drink chocolate milk. In my cookbook, Choclatique-150 Simply Elegant Desserts, I talked a little about my experiences at the Adhor Farms in West Los Angeles, where they used to give out free chocolate milk in the reception area. Yes, there was a day when there actually was a dairy on the west side. On Fridays they would give us gallons to take home. I wasn't a big chocolate milk drinker, but I did 'invent' a lot of kid recipes to use up the chocolate milk.
I love chocolate pudding, but it has to be the old-fashioned kind where the skin forms on the top—no overly-starched instant pudding for this guy. And you don't need to take short cuts when it comes to making a great chocolate pudding. The hardest part of the recipe is to wait for it to chill.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Chill Time: 2 hours
Yield: Serves 8
2 cups, plus 1/2 cup chocolate milk
1/3 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold coffee
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup Choclatique Rouge Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
ChefSecret: I use the coffee to add richness and depth to the chocolate pudding flavor. It is a natural chocolate enhancer and I use it in cakes, pies and cookies when appropriate. Never add cornstarch directly to a hot liquid as it will clump and pearl leaving lumps of cornstarch that are very undesirable in what should be a smooth-as-silk chocolate pudding.

Sarah Hagerty
As owner and lead photographer of Hagerty Photography, I'm thrilled to be able to do what I love for a living. With formal photography training and a passion for fashion, I capture images that artfully blend style and sophistication with the raw emotion of the day. I bring a professional, yet playful personality to each shoot, putting couples at ease on what can be a wonderfully jittery day. My goal is to make the seemingly impossible shots happen without batting an eyelash.
What's truly amazing about my job is that I continue to be inspired every day. At any given moment, you might find me with a couple saying, "All right, we're done for the day." Then something will catch my eye – gorgeous contrasting colors or a one-of-a-kind backdrop – and we're on to the next shot.
When I'm not snapping stunning and dashing couples, I spend my time pursuing my other life passions: motherhood (with three darling boys as spunky as I am) and caffeine (several Arnold Palmers, please).
Nick Hagerty
Nick is my second photographer, my go-to-guy, and my ambassador of quan (a Jerry Maguire reference, for my fellow rom-com fans out there). We work side-by-side at weddings to capture every angle and emotion of the day. His natural talent in both photography and graphic design result in undeniably edgy and artful images.
Nick is also my behind-the-lens moving man. I'm not afraid to set a couple upon a table, ask you to climb a ladder, or move furniture around at a venue to capture an amazing photo that initially only exists in my mind. With his moral and muscle support, Nick helps me to make this magic happen.
When he's not playing the part of paparazzi at the reception, Nick spends his time making his friends feel intellectually inferior with his wealth of useless knowledge. (Did you know that four of the last six presidents were left-handed? Nick did.)
Every wedding is one-of-a-kind, and every couple has its own character. If I'm going to tell your unique story with style and flair, I need to know what makes you tick.
I'll spend a lot of time with you – from the initial meeting to the pre-wedding shoots, including engagement, bridal, boudoir, and more. I'll get to know your personal style, your likes and dislikes, and what you really want to see as you turn the pages of your wedding album. By the time you begin your happily-ever-after, I'll be just as much your friend as I am your photographer.
Building this personal connection results in images that are stunning, yet natural; dramatic, yet true to your personality.
Inspired by your individuality and sense of style, I'll bring a fresh approach to every shoot. I always have two photographers, two angles, and two perspectives on the scene, so not a moment will be missed. With my distinctive eye for design and organic approach to photography, your images will be modern, yet timeless; elegant, with an edge; fashionable to reflect your unique style.
You have a vision for your wedding day – one that reflects your attitude and your artistry. I'll capture that vision with creative flair and confidence. That's my vow to you.
Look No Further
On the most ordinary of days, a fab wedding photographer can snap an image that will blow you away. It's all about the lighting, focus, and picture-perfect timing.
But this is no ordinary day. This is a one-of-a-kind, in-the-spotlight, knock-their-socks-off-when-you-stroll-down-the-aisle kind of day. This is your wedding day, and that calls for more than a fab photographer.
You need someone who can direct the crowd with confidence and humor; who can handle the split-second decisions that make the difference between 'nice' photos and spectacular photos; who can artfully capture the details and emotions that will mean so much years from now. Well, look no further.
Award Winning Wedding Photographers
Based out of Arizona and The Bay Area, servicing all destinations
A big thank you to Gretchen Wakeman Photography for capturing our head shots!

There is no question that this
stamp is the finest mint example in existence. Its overall freshness, along with its extravagantly large margins, combined with the fact that it boasts full original gum that has never been hinged – places it in a category unlike any other
world-class philatelic rarity in existence. Truly, it is a miracle how this remarkable stamp survived for nearly 160 years in this condition. While there are two or three mint singles that exist which are quite well margined, along with five pairs
(one of which is in the Canadian Postal Archives and another in the Tapling Collection), not one is as superb as the example offered here, nor is any other example never hinged (and certified as such).
This exciting stamp is accompanied by a
letter dated August 10, 1965 from J.N. Sissions, one of the most highly regarded Canadian auctioneers of the 20th Century, in which he describes the stamp as "…genuine and flawless, brilliant original gum, never hinged and immaculate in all respects.
I believe it to be the finest existing copy." Attached to the letter are photographic enlargements of both the front and reverse of the stamp.
In addition, the stamp was recently submitted to the Philatelic Foundation in New York City to obtain an
updated report on its genuineness and condition. On May 3, 2010 the PF issued certificate #486541 and stated the stamp is "unused, o.g., genuine, never hinged." Furthermore, the PF assigned the coveted numeric grade of "Superb 98" to the stamp - a
grade that is almost never assigned to any classic stamp of the world, let alone a world class rarity. And for those who are familiar with the Philatelic Foundation's conservative reputation for grading (and being particularly demanding when calling
a classic stamp never hinged or not), this is a clear indication that this stamp is truly something special and beyond compare.
To accurately estimate the value of such a unique stamp is understandably difficult – as no other copy exists in this
incomparable never hinged condition. To at least get some starting point, the current 2011 edition of The Unitrade Specialized Catalogue of Canadian Stamps prices a very fine unused (no gum) example at C$150,000.00, but they then assign a 100%
premium if the stamp has original gum. Therefore, a catalog value of C$300,000.00 is appropriate for an original gum example that is in very fine condition. Of course, the Unitrade catalog does not even attempt to assign a value for an original gum
copy in superb condition such as The Black Empress, let alone the fact that it is never hinged. The earliest issues Unitrade attempts to price in never hinged condition is for the 1868-1876 Large Queen series, and never hinged copies are given
a 300% premium over the very fine no gum pricing. The last original gum, premium quality, mint example of the 12d. Black was in our November 2009 sale of the William H. Gross collection of Important British North America. It realized $299,100.00
(including the buyer's premium). While the Gross example is a wonderfully choice stamp, its margins are not near as large as found on The Black Empress and, more significantly, it was hinged, as is every other known single or pair –
except for the exciting example offered here. (imagea)

Best Pet Bird
Canaries, parakeets, macaws, oh my! You are in the market for a new pet bird, but which bird is best for you?
Dogs are too high maintenance, cats make you sneeze, you find fish boring and snakes give you the heebie-jeebies. What's left? A bird! Don't be fooled, however. Birds can be just as high maintenance and expensive as a dog can be. Whether a feathered pet is for you depends on which bird species you choose. Below are the five most common pet bird choices.
- Parakeets come in a variety of colors (thus a very pretty pet) and are content with mostly singing and whistling. The average lifespan of these birds is 12-14 years.
- Cockatiels are also medium-sized and are very good at singing and whistling. They tend to mimic quirky noises rather than words (think: your alarm clock). The average lifespan is 15-20 years.
- Canaries are tiny birds that barely interact with humans. This is the perfect bird for indoor bird-watching and minimal interaction. A canary can live up to 10 years.
- Lovebirds are as intelligent as macaws, but do not speak as much. These are the perfect birds for those who live in an apartment complex and do not wish to annoy their neighbors. Lovebirds can live up to 20 years.
- African Greys are the talkers! Their vocabulary can reach an impressive 2,000 words. These birds are very high maintenance though, as they get bored quickly. But they're very affectionate. African Greys tend to live for 50-70 years, so consider your own age before getting a young one.

I guess that I have made so bold a statement that I had better clarify what
I mean by "more than a superficial knowledge of Greek" as well as respond
to Tony's question about learning Greek independently.
I do indeed think that one can learn Greek on one's own so long as one has
access to the necessary materials, but however much of what is in books has
to be learned, one really needs to have access to persons with greater
experience in the language; one needs to be able to put one's questions to
someone who can give answers that are not only competent but helpful. For
these reasons, despite the ample on-line resources, including lessons,
grammars, and dictionaries now accessible on the internet, the community
constituted by the B-Greek list is itself one of the most vital resources
of all: understanding Greek is an enterprise that depends upon the
accumulated lore of hundreds of generations, and much of that never finds
its way into books but is shared by teachers and learners in the classroom
and in informal discussions.
There are several courses in Biblical and even classical Attic Greek that
can be perused and studied on-line, including those prepared by our own
list-members Jonathan Robie and Jim West. Some are reasonably complete,
others (Jonathan's, for instance) are still in process of development. But
caveats are in order: (1) "completeness" is relative: the most complete
textbook i the world, on-line or not, fails to deal with lots of things
that are more important than a beginner can realize are important--i.e.
textbooks and on-line courses should be understood for what they are:
primers, beginning courses of instructions, not "all you need to know about
Greek." (2) One needs to understand also that ALL grammars and
dictionaries and textbooks and teachers are subject to error. The best of
them are sometimes simply wrong, the inferior ones more frequently. It
really is important to be observant and to be able to question anything one
is confronting that seems unintelligible; that's why it's important to have
someone to pose the questions to, even better to have a community such as
B-Greek, where you can get a variety of responses to your questions, some
of them possibly even correct responses!
There are several listings of such courses and resources for learning Greek
on the web; rather than list several I will simply refer to what I think is
the most thorough and the most regularly updated listing of such resources,
the page maintained by Mark Goodacre:
Phonology: This really is important, but most textbooks don't give much
more than instructions on vowel-contractions (usually when introducing
alpha, epsilon, and omicron contract verbs) and on assimilation of
consonants (usually when introducing the future and liquid aorists. But one
really needs to learn quite a number of significant facts about ancient
Greek phonology, e.g.: the relationship of original long-alpha to Eta and
epsilon, iota, and rho; the original consonantal forms of iota and digamma
and initial and medial sigma that are responsible for hiatus and numerous
vowel contractions; compensatory lengthening; loss of final consonants
other than sigma, rho, and nu, etc., etc. Of course one needs to have some
sense of how Greek was pronounced, however theoretical that may be; but far
more important is this phonology, because unless one understands it, one is
doomed to doing a lot of memorization of morphological paradigms which will
seem wholly irrational although they are really quite rational to one who
understands the phonetic principles underlying the apparent anomalies. This
is one of those things that is rarely taught, but I've always thought it
fundamentally essential, and I've thought it was a primary differentiator
between students who barely succeed in acquiring a reading knowledge of
Greek and those who really understand the WHYs of the morphological
paradigms in their historical forms. What's most important to know is even
available on-line in Smyth's grammar at the Perseus site:
Morphology: It's simply no good muddling through with guesses about what a
verb form or a noun or adjective or pronoun is; one needs to know the
paradigms so thoroughly that one recognizes instantaneously the inflected
form as soon as one sees it--or at least the range of possible forms that
it could be--and one needs to be able to understand from context why a form
like PEIQOUSIN must in a particular instance be a dative-plural participle
and not a 3d plural present indicative; one needs to realize at once that
EDEXW is an aorist middle 2nd sg. and not a future indicative 1st sg. One
needs to know from context where forms of AUTOS are real 3d person pronouns
and that AUTH hH GUNH means "the woman herself" while hH AUTH GUNH means
"the same woman." Memorization is vital here and there is simply no
substitute for it. One has to do quite enough intelligent guesswork when
reading a Greek text, but there is no excuse for failure to discern the
quite-limited range of possible ways of understanding any inflected form of
a verb, noun, adjective, pronoun or adverb.
History of the Language: This is another of those things that I consider
important while most teachers of Greek think it ancillary at best. I know
that many really do believe that one can learn to read NT Koine Greek
without ever reading anything else except perhaps the LXX, but I honestly
believe this is a delusion and a dangerous one, if for no other reason than
that one needs to know the difference between a standard Greek construction
and a Semitism peculiar to the LXX and common enough in the GNT. I think
one needs to know SOMETHING about the history of Greek from Linear B up to
the modern language; how much one needs to know is debatable, to be sure,
but I am personally convinced that one who can read at least some Homer and
some Plato is better equipped to read the GNT than one who cannot, and I am
convinced too that it is really worth knowing something about the
change-history of Greek inflections over the course of three millennia. I
don't expect to convince everyone that this is true, but I will state my
reason: it is that however much one might like to think of the Koine of the
GNT in synchronic terms as a stable entity fully intelligible as a
linguistic system, the fact is that the Koine of the GNT is a hodge-podge
of morphological and syntactic structures which are far from homogeneous;
if most of those structures DO conform to standard textbook paradigms, all
well and good, but in fact, there are VERY MANY morphological and syntactic
structures that reflect what were common earlier or became common later
forms in Greek. It is good to know something about the history of
hINA-clauses and to understand their relationship to earlier Greek purpose
clauses as well as to later Greek infinitives. Admittedly I have a bias
here toward a diachronic conception of Koine Greek that many do not share,
but as I have said, my reason for this is that the simple fact that one can
see concurrent forms like EIPON and EIPA for the first-person sg. aorist
indicative in the GNT is sufficient evidence that the Greek of the GNT is a
language in flux.
Vocabulary: This is obvious and I think everyone realizes it; perhaps not
quite as obvious as it ought to be is the necessity of knowing the
principal part of 50 to 60 major irregular verbs--knowing them so well that
one can instantly recognize a compound of hIHMI or a -QH- form of a verb
that isn't and never was a passive because a verb such as DUNAMAI can never
have a passive sense. But there's a lot more than memorization of basic
forms as such here; one really needs to know some fundamentals of
word-formation (e.g. the difference between -THR/-TWR, -MA, and -SIS
suffixes with verbal stems, the kind of nouns created by adding a -THRION
ending, the kind of verbs created by using an -IZW or a -SKW present-system
stem formative). Smyth and BDF--any really good reference grammar--have
sections on word-formation that are worth studying and absorbing. In
accordance with my above-stated bias toward diachronic perspective on
language, I think it's important to understand words and roots in terms of
their history in the language, where possible--and although etymology can
be misleading regarding the current actual sense of a word, it is more
often a source of helpful guidance than one may realize. And I think it is
important to STUDY lexicons when confronting a word that ranges very widely
in its meaning (such as PROS!) and to endeavor to see how word-meanings
ramify from each other and to examine sentences and phrases illustrative of
actual usage of words. I wrote at length on this subject once on B-Greek
and that's in the Archives [s.v. Carl W. Conrad, 1/30/96, "using lexicons
and learning Greek"].
Reading: My own conviction about learning Greek is that there is no
substitute for reading large and connected chunks of original Greek text;
one may start with relatively easy things like John's gospel, but sooner or
later one has to tackle the difficulties of the Pauline corpus or the
complexity of Hebrews--the stuff in the GNT that is really hard. And I
continue to think that one really ought to read plenty of stuff outside
the GNT also; read some LXX at least, read some Philo or Josephus, read
some Apostolic Fathers; read some Plato, read some Homer. And keep reading,
and keep learning. Learning Greek is a lifelong endeavor: it doesn't ever
come to a point of rest while one lives, so far as I know.

Its very grubby and needs a very good clean. The camera back looks like its from another camera but the plate holders do fit. Well two of them do.
Bellows is actually in pretty good condition and thats half the battle.
Theres no makers name but it does look a little like a Sheffield & Co camera. I think the back is from a Thornton Pickard.

The INSIDER Summary:
- Fitness blogger Celena Kinsey, 24, shared a side-by-side Instagram post of her stomach at night and the following morning.
- One photo shows her bloated, and the other one is the next morning, when she isn't bloated.
- She posted the photo to normalize bloating, which many people experience but don't often talk about.
Just like the way your face looks changes over the course of a day, so does the way your body looks. If you're susceptible to bloating, you'll know that all too well.
Fitness blogger Celena Kinsey opened up about her own experience of bloating, an issue she claims to have suffered from for years, in a recent Instagram post that has gone viral with nearly 7,000 likes at the time this story was published.
The 24-year-old posted side-by-side photos of herself taken in the same outfit at the same angle at different times of the day to demonstrate how bloating can change the way her body looks. The photo on the left was taken at night; the photo on the right was taken the next morning.
While we think she looks great in both photos, Kinsey wrote a lengthy caption explaining how bloating has impacted her self-esteem.
Here's the full caption of her photo (emphasis ours):
"These pictures are from this Monday/ Tuesday and show what one of my bloating episodes look like. No I'm not pushing my tummy out, I actually have abdominal distension during these episodes, as pointed out by a doctor (and you can see I'm totally not feeling good). For as long as I can remember, I've suffered from these episodes of intense pain and bloating. It started a few years ago and it was upper right quadrant pain, bloating, and discomfort once every few months. Then it progressed to every month, and now it seems to hit me every few weeks. Doctors are just as confused as I am and so far all I've gotten diagnosed with are "gastritis" and possible IBS- which we know means there really isn't a known cause. I've been doing everything I can to modify my diet, to identify any food triggers and to just deal with it when it happens but it's NOT easy. I'm not sharing for sympathy, but instead to be real with you all. Sharing a photo like this is never easy because when you're bloated you feel pretty down on yourself and you're uncomfortable in your own skin. But I'm sharing this to show that you're not alone, and that we all have things that we're battling and that's normal. Bloating is so common and affects about 10-30% of the general population, with women TWICE as likely to experience it. So nope, I don't walk around with abs 24/7, and I'm totally ok with that! Right now my priorities are to share my journey, and to one day at least find out what the heck this random pain is. So the next time you're bloated, don't think you look "fat or disgusting"- that's unhealthy behavior and you know that bloating comes and goes. Instead, make yourself a hot water bottle, drink water, turn on some Netflix and rest easy. Always remember your body responds best to positivity and love."
While Kinsey talks about her personal experience of severe pain and bloating — and how she has been diagnosed with IBS or gastritis — she points out that bloating is a very common issue, especially for women.
The blogger's post inspired others in the comments to share their own experiences with bloating, a health concern that doesn't get talked about much.
"I feel you girl!!! I try not to let it rule my life," one commenter wrote. "I love your positive approach!"
Another Instagram user empathized with the fitness blogger's experience. "I'm not bothered by how it makes me look so much, but it was where the pain was and the fact that I was the only person I knew who it was happening to, I felt alone and was really scared," they wrote. "So again, thank you, this post and everyone commenting their experiences has made me, and I'm sure others in the same situation, feel less alone."
Maybe Kinsey's viral post will inspire more women to embrace their stomachs — and even flaunt them in form-fitting clothes like these body-positive bloggers.
Either way, it's worth remembering that our stomachs are beautiful, whether they happen to look smaller or larger, and regardless of the time of day.

A diabetic hospital worker was sacked for drinking a small carton of orange juice meant for a patient when she suddenly felt faint.
Cathy Walsh, 52, was removed from her catering hostess post of six-and-a-half years after a passing hospital trust member saw her taking a swig and reported her.
Mrs Walsh, who suffered from a water infection, said: "I was taking the breakfast trolley round but I went all light-headed and dizzy.
"We have these little cartons of orange juice so I drank one to stop myself passing out.
"It's probably worth about 20p. I'm totally shocked and devastated.
"I have medical evidence that proves I was unwell but they aren't interested in it."
Mrs Walsh, of Everton, may now take her employer ISS Facility Services at the Royal Liverpool University Hospital to an employment tribunal.
The GMB union said: "This seems a very severe sanction."
ISS would not comment.

Almighty has woven the gigantic human wisdom and thoughts in few pounds of flesh "The Brain". This is man's build in nature to discover the hidden facts, play with colors in order to boost his self-esteem through his aptitude to innovate and create. Designers of all kind manifest these basic human traits in order to win laurels. Breathing in the social networking regime of information technology is the basic turnover in past few decades for commerce i.e. shifts from brick and mortar to click form of business. This evolution in the pattern of trade has motivated the buyers and sellers of different races and creed to shake their hands for prosperity regardless of boundaries.
Big businesses have large amount of dollars in their pockets to spend on their different mediums of communication but the actual problem exists for the miniature set up of trade where there is scarcity of resources (land, labor and capital). The real challenge for the germinating businesses is to craft an organically search optimized website in order to get maximum traffic in a cost-effective manner. This is the way in which website flourishes in the innate manner and get the maximum viewership. Website should be magnetic or alluring in nature so that people just love to visit it on regular basis in order to seek information about the product and service and also to purchase them. The key ingredients for such websites are summarized here in order to help the entrepreneurs to make & nurture their business's website properly.
1. Nature of the Business
Wholesaling of merchandise is entirely poles apart from retailing of goods and services as their customers are different; this is what the designer of website should embrace while designing the website i.e. the deep understanding of the nature of the business. In this way the viewers will get the right and useful information from the website about the business.
2. Interactive yet Simple
Simplicity supplemented with interactivity is another way to keep people engaged with website. This is what the designers of the web should use as a competitive tool in the hypercompetitive environment. As website is an emerging way marketing products and services to the potential & existing customer that's why it should be impressive.
3. Properly Encrypted
The website should be properly encrypted in order to prevent others to imitate the contents, graphics and text and copying codes and PayPal links. For this purpose organizations have to obtain the host or site certificate. If the certificate is valid it shows that authority has verified that website belongs to that organization.
4. Aesthetically Eye-Catching
Small businesses should use beautification as a tool to keep acquired and attract new customers. This can be done by uploading colorful images of the products and services on the regular basis. In this way surprise element will be added, every time customers will visit website they will experience new things.
5. Payment Methods
While crafting a website for small business the 2 to 3 payment methods should be provided to the customers because the people in the developing countries don't trust paying through credit cards as the American used to do few years back. So the alternative methods like PayPal, wire transfer and etc should be provided.
6. Catalogs
The proper catalogs for the products and services should be complied for convince of the buyers. In addition to this if printed catalogs are also published it should be integrated with the digital one in order to provide symmetrical information to all the people.
7. Shopping Carts
Designer should design the proper shopping carts for selling the products in order to maintain the privacy of the customers in digital arena. Higher the people will trust the business higher will be the sales volume.
8. Social Responsibility
Website should also include the social responsibility aspect of the organization in order to convey strong message to the customers that we care for them more than anything else.
9. Feedback Button/ Section
The website should have properly designed feedback or complain section in order to improve the quality of their existing offerings as well as to get helpful information for new product development.
10. Contact Information
The proper postal and email address should be the part of the website. Now days Google maps can also be used to spot your store location on the face of the world. This will not only increases the customer trust in you but also results in fruitful revenue outcomes.
By taking into consideration the above mentioned tips the designer can come up with a master piece which can facilitate in increasing the customer satisfaction and in return help in reaping profits for the small businesses. This is the medium through which small business are now turned into big guns in the world of business like eBay and Amazon.

Oman Oil Refineries and Petroleum Industries Company (Orpic) has partnered with Sultan Qaboos University (SQU) and the Japan Cooperation Centre Petroleum (JCCP) on a project for the treatment hazardous refinery waste, a report said.
The agreement for the development of a 'Local Treatment Alternative Pilot for Exported Hazardous Refinery Waste' was signed by Dr Rahma bint Ibrahim al Mahrouqi, SQU deputy vice chancellor for Postgraduate Studies & Research, Christiaan van der Wouden, chief operating officer of Orpic and Eiji Hiraoka, senior executive director, JCCP.
The budget for the joint project consists of a fund proposed by JCCP and SQU/Orpic contribution. The two-year long project includes pilot test for local treatment alternative for exported refinery hazardous waste; and pilot equipment to be installed and operated at the Orpic refinery, the report said.
"Health, safety and environment are the first priorities of Orpic and the project that explores hazardous refinery waste treatment technologies locally would open up now frontiers of knowledge in waste management leading to environmental protection and safety of people in Oman," van der Wouden was quoted as saying in the report.

Space Corps (Red Dwarf)
This article consists almost entirely of a plot summary. It should be expanded to provide more balanced coverage that includes real-world context. (October 2012) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Space Corps, also colloquially referred to as the Star Corps (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book), Space Federation ("Back in the Red, Part Three") and the Star Fleet (Last Human and "Back to Earth, Part Two"), is the umbrella organization which regulated all interplanetary and interstellar space flight to and from Earth, from the British science fiction sitcom Red Dwarf. They were responsible for the creation of spaceships, the colonisation of the Galaxy, and the introduction of holograms, GELFs and artificial intelligences such as mechanoids and simulants throughout the Galaxy. The Space Corps is somewhat analogous to Star Trek's Starfleet and is responsible for the administrative organisation of all space travel in the Red Dwarf Universe.
Space Corps Directives[edit]
The Space Corps Directives are a running joke from the British science fiction sitcom Red Dwarf. The Directives are a list of the Space Corps' regulations.[1] Though originating in series 2, the directives were most often used for comic effect during the 5th and 6th series of the show.
A prelude to the Space Corps directives were featured in the episode "Queeg", where Holly, masquerading as "Queeg 500", would use "Articles" to force the crew to work, as well as perform other unsavoury acts. As "Queeg" was created by Holly purely so the crew would appreciate his leniency more, the authenticity of the Articles and their influence remains suspect.
When first introduced, the Directives were used by Kryten to coerce Rimmer into acting altruistically or to highlight the less than exemplary behaviour of the rest of the crew. The normal pattern would be for Kryten to quote the number of regulation and then in response to a challenge would quote the entire regulation, to which one of the crew would respond with some pithy comment or other. Later on, Rimmer attempts to fight back by quoting from the same regulations, but his imperfect recall of the Directives means that he normally quotes the wrong paragraph number and instead references obscure and bizarre Directives that have little or no relevance to the situation at hand.
Rimmer's habit of quoting Space Corps directives eventually becomes a key part of his personality, so much so that when Lister begins to miss Rimmer in Series VII, Episode "Blue", he has a homoerotic dream in which Kochanski's inability to cite Space Corps directives is seen as a defect:[2]
- RIMMER: Is she [Kochanski] as good as me?
- LISTER: Well, she's been here a few weeks and she hasn't quoted one Space Corps directive.
List of known directives[edit]
Directives from the TV Series[edit]
- 005. 'Gross negligence, leading to the endangerment of personnel.' (titled as an article, Queeg)
- 112. 'that clearly states: a living crew member always out-ranks a hologram' (Series V, Rimmer mistakes it for SCD113 instead of SCD112, also mentioned in White Hole)
- 142. 'quite clearly states that in a hostage demand situation, a hologrammatic personality is entirely expendable' (Series V, Rimmer mistakes it for SCD192 instead of SCD142)
- 147. 'Crew members are expressly forbidden from leaving their vessel except on permission of a permit. Permits can only be issued by the Chief Navigation Officer, who is expressly forbidden from issuing them except on production of a permit.' ("Ouroboros", also quoted in the Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 195. States that in an emergency power situation, a hologrammatic crewmember must lay down his life in order that the living crew-members might survive. ("White Hole")
- 312. States that crew members in quarantine must be provided with minimum leisure facilities, which Rimmer takes to mean: 'a chess set with 31 missing pieces, a knitting magazine with a pull-out special on crocheted hats, a puzzle magazine with all the crosswords completed and a video of the excellent cinematic treat, Wallpapering, Painting, and Stippling— A DIY Guide. ("Quarantine")
- 497. 'When a crewmember has run out of credits, food may not be supplied until the balance is restored' (although titled as an article) (Queeg)
- 595. A quarantine regulation (probably something like "any crew member who has been in direct contact with diseases must enter quarantine"). ("Quarantine")
- 596. Crew files are for the eyes of the Captain only ("Back to Earth (Part Two)")
- 597. One berth per registered crew member. ("Quarantine")
- 699. States that crew members may demand a rescreening after five days in quarantine showing no ill effect. ("Quarantine")
- 1742. 'No member of the Corps should ever report for active duty in a ginger toupee.' ("Psirens", also quoted in the Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 1743. 'No registered vessel should attempt to traverse an asteroid belt without deflectors.' ("Psirens")
- 5796. 'No officer above the rank of Mess Sergeant is permitted to go into combat with pierced nipples.' ("Psirens")
- 5797. May have something to do with "not letting a crew-member aboard if he may, in fact, be a brain-sucking psychotic temporal lobe slurper". ("Psirens")
- 34124. 'No officer with false teeth should attempt oral sex in zero gravity.' ("Legion", also quoted in the Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 68250. Is never quoted, but is known to be impossible without at least one live chicken and a rabbi, presumably the Jewish Ritual "Kapparot". ("Emohawk")
- 196156. 'Any officer caught sniffing the saddle of the exercise bicycle in the women's gym will be discharged without trial.' ("Rimmerworld", also quoted in the Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 1947945. 'A mechanoid may issue orders to human crew members if the lives of said crew members are directly or indirectly under threat from a hitherto unperceived source and there is inadequate time to explain the precise nature of the enormous and most imminent death threat.' (quoted by Kryten in the original script for "Back to Reality") In the deleted scenes in the DVD extras Kryten says 1975456-6 and it ends "…inadequate time to explain the precise nature of the unforeseen death threat".
- 39436175880932/B. 'All nations attending the conference are only allocated one car parking space.' (Although this is given the title ' The All-Nations Agreement') ("Gunmen of the Apocalypse")
- 39436175880932/C. 'POWs have a right to non-violent constraint.' ("Gunmen of the Apocalypse")
- ?. 'It is our primary overriding duty to contact other life forms, exchange information, and, wherever possible, bring them home.' (Not given a number on-screen.) ("Polymorph")
- ?. 'Space Corps super-chimps performing acts of indecency in zero-gravity will lose all banana privileges.' (Not given a number on-screen.) ("Back to Earth (Part Two)")
Directives from other sources[edit]
Several other directives appear in other official sources, including in the Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book.[3]
- 003. 'By joining Star Corps each individual tacitly consents to give up his inalienable rights to life, liberty and adequate toilet facilities.' (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 349. 'Any officer found to have been slaughtered and replaced by a shape-changing chameleonic life form shall forfeit all pension rights.' (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 592. 'In an emergency situation involving two or more officers of equal rank, seniority will be given to whichever officer can programme a VCR.' (PBS ident, also included on the DVD for series VIII, Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 723. 'Terraformers are expressly forbidden from recreating Swindon.' (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book). In the United States, 'Swindon' is changed to 'Cleveland'. (PBS ident, also included on the DVD for series VIII).
- 997. 'Work done by an officer's doppelgänger in a parallel universe cannot be claimed as overtime.' (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 1694. 'During temporal disturbances, no questions shall be raised about any crew member whose timesheet shows him or her clocking off 187 years before he clocked on.' (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 7214. To preserve morale during long-haul missions, all male officers above the rank of First Technician must, during panto season, be ready to put on a dress and a pair of false breasts. (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 7713. States that the log must be kept up to date at all times with current service records, complete mission data and a comprehensive and accurate list of all crew birthdays so that senior officers may avoid bitter and embarrassing silences when meeting in the corridor with subordinates who have not received a card. (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 43872. 'Suntans will be worn during off-duty hours only.' (Red Dwarf 1996 Log Book)
- 98247. 'No officer should be left behind on an inhabited planet unless he is missing two or more limbs.' (Advertising for the 2009 Red Dwarf special episodes. Message 2)[4]
- 572 436 8217968B. 'At all times show your allegiance to Red Dwarf in the US by picking up your phone and calling your local public television station with your pledge.' (PBS ident, also included on the DVD for series VIII; Kryten complains that Rimmer has just made it up)
Rimmer Directives[edit]
There are a number of Rimmer Directives, which Rimmer makes up to counter Kryten's use of the regulations:
- 271. 'No chance, you metal bastard.' Used to counter Space Corps Directive 195 in the episode "White Hole".
- ?. An unspecified directive after the crew was attacked by a polymorph (simply referred to as "The Rimmer Directive"): 'Never tangle with anything that's got more teeth than the entire Osmond family.' ("Polymorph")

From the mom in a sexy red convertible who "took a wrong turn down Sesame Street" and ended up driving a minivan, to the Costco Queen atop her throne of Kirkland toilet paper, to the mom who child-proofed her house but, for some reason, the kids keep getting back in, "Motherhood: The Musical" is a rip-roaring good time.
At least it was for those of us who have labored and delivered, then endeavored to raise a child without completely losing ourselves in the process.
The men in the audience simply did not relate, although author Sue Fabisch insists that men will laugh just as hard as women. The woman sitting next to me asked to borrow a tissue because she, too, was laughing so hard she was crying. But a handful of women who attended the opening night performance at the Royal George Theater in Chicago were strangely silent. I can only surmise that those women must be childless.
Because if you have had a child, how can you not relate to songs about having the "I can't lose the baby weight blues?" Or the bittersweet thought of the kids finally being grown and gone? Or wanting to go on strike and not do another load of laundry, cook another meal or scrub another toilet?
Motherhood: The Musical Will be Around as Long as Moms
There is a lot of great theater in Chicago but I don't always get out to see the shows because I have trouble staying awake long enough. But this Chicago premiere is mom-friendly in every way, including this one. It runs for 90 minutes without an intermission. We were out and on our way home by 9:30.
This 90-minute wonder about the upsides, downsides, backsides and smells of motherhood is a fun, funny, light-hearted night out. For a taste of the upbeat songs and talented cast (Melody Betts, Madeline Duffy-Feins, Kimberly Vanbiesbrouck and my favorite, Jennifer Chada), download this song, "The Kids are Finally Asleep." It's free.
If you happen to be pregnant and are expected to deliver between now and May 13, you can see the show for free, too. But if it's your first pregnancy, I'm not sure you'll sufficiently appreciate the humor. Like Amy, the ready-to-deliver-her-first-child central character of the show, you may not see the humor in songs about what happens to your mammaries or why you should "get drugs" during the delivery.
You might do better to wait until you've spent some time "dirty hiney wiping." Don't worry. I predict, this show will have many encore performances. As long as there are kids and mothers, "Motherhood: The Musical" will find an audience. Just bring your best girlfriend and leave hubby at home.

Campus Day Outfit
Tuesday, April 28, 2015
Hi peeps! Luckily I wasn't gone too long again. So this post, I'll be sharing my yesterday's quick-college-day since I'm on my Mid Test until 2 May.
I simply only paired my semi baggy jeans with tartan basic shirt and I added my old-vintage vest cause I really love to wear any kind of vests. Vest could make your outfit a lil bit outstanding, and I know vest become my authentic style since I can play it with any kind of stuffs I have in my closet. I could be feminine, or boyish, depend on what vest I wear and what kind of clothes I pair into an outfit. And do you know why I like to wear baggy/semi baggy jeans? It's to manipulate my leg, because I'm having a-bit-really tiny legs.
The last touch I paired was my favorite pip toe flats in nude! It's always a perfect company to walk, and not too much accents too.
And here's my recent selfie invasion :p :p

A number of you have indicated success with SIBO using drug Xifaxan. Talked with my doctor yesterday and he said he didn't see how this would help. Said for IBS and travelers diarrhea. He reluctantly prescribed 600 mg per day for 10 days. Feedback appreciated. Thanks
Liked by astaingegerdm
I took Xifaxan for IBS. Insurance didn't cover it at all and it cost $500+ for a two week supply. Did nothing for me.
thanks for feedback
I love Xifaxan. Over the years it has helped tremendously. I would use it a couple of times a year when things got pretty bad. There were times when it didn't fully treat the infection. With current pricing I just can't afford it. Don't understand why the price skyrocketed. Maybe because people liked it. I have also been on other antibiotics- but they tend to knock out good bacteria. I'm looking into buying from Canada.
Thank you for starting a great discussion about Xifaxan, @drpepper. I'd also like to invite @jacque6977 @contentandwell @tiss @kltchrmn @gaylea1 @jacquelinek1956 @pbleonar @sibobegone @melaniewa @lateacher @acres to join in and share their insights and experiences with Xifaxan.
Let us know if you have success with Canadian purchase. Thanks
@drpepper I've been taking Xifaxan for just over a year and a half. It's something my insurance will not cover without an accompanying Lactulose prescription. My hepatologist says it works better than lactulose, but hey it's so expensive I'm happy to take the lactulose too.
I will.
Can I ask what you are being treated for? Have you taken the Xifaxan continuously for the year and a half? I wondered because the course of use as a treatment treatment for IBS is two weeks. I think it can be repeated if symptoms return.
@jackiem95 I'm taking Xifaxan to prevent hepatic encephalopathy, a side effect of advanced liver disease. It helps prevent the buildup of ammonia in my brain.
Thank you for sharing. Take care.
Good info. Thanks
FYI it is available under a different name in Mexico—much less expensive.
@kanaazpereira @drpepper I took xifaxan for hepatic encephalopathy (HE). I had cirrhosis and that can cause HE episodes. I was first on lactulose but it really bothered my stomach so when I saw the hepatologist she prescribed xifaxan. I took just that, no lactulose, for almost a year and had no problems, no HE episodes. It was like an answer to a prayer. Then I had another episode. It may have been due to a couple of things occurring that can contribute to bringing on an HE episode but it also could have meant that my cirrhosis had progressed so I had to resume taking lactulose along with the xifaxan. About 6 months after that I had a liver transplant so thankfully no need for either any more.
When I was taking xifaxan the doctor prescribed two a day, I believe they were 550 mg each. The retail on that was around $2400 at the time, I have heard it is a bit less now. With my insurance, I paid between $700 and $800 a month for it.
It is an antibiotic of sorts so I would think it could help with SIBO but I am not a medical person or a pharmacist so I really can't comment on that. I did google SIBO and xifaxan and some of the links said that was the was the first way to treat SIBO but one article said it was not. It's worth looking it up yourself.
luky06.How your doctor not understan that you were İBS and diarrhea?i would like to tell some good think naw.
1- For diarrhea drink one time an imodium.That's enougne.And then i advice: ginger+cinnamon+cernation in it a glass boiled water.you may drink every day.
This mixture is very helpfull all your bady.So you are going to be better.
Apparently, Xifaxan is good for SIBO because the medicine stays mostly in your intestine and is not absorbed into the bloodstream like other antibiotics. It was prescribed to me for SIBO but I could not afford the price tag so I took Flagyl instead. So your GI doctor may be a bit behind the times, which is not a good sign. I think many antibiotics can help kill the bad bacteria overgrowth but what is key is how to keep yourself from relapsing. That is where I believe diet comes in, which is something else rarely discussed by most GI doctors. I hate to be so down on docs, but all that was offered to me by them were pills and expensive procedures. I had to read up and find about following the proper diet for SIBO on my own.
