Recovery from Addiction. If AA or NA have not worked for you, you may wish to consider an alternative.
Rational Recovery (RR) is a source of counseling, guidance, and direct instruction on self-recovery from addiction, alcohol and other drugs through planned, permanent abstinence designed as an alternative to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Twelve step programs. RR was founded in 1986 by Jack Trimpey, a California licensed clinical social worker. Rational Recovery is a for-profit organization. Jack works in the field of treatment of alcoholism and other drug addictions. He admits to 25 years of "world class alcoholism", from which experience he developed his system of self recovery.
The program is offered via the internet and through books, videos, and lectures. The Rational Recovery program is based on the premise that the addict both desires and is capable of permanent, planned abstinence. However, the RR program recognizes that, paradoxically, the addict also wants to continue using. This is because of his belief in the power of the substance to quell his anxiety; an anxiety which is itself partially substance-induced, as well as greatly enhanced, by the substance (see Beck et al.). This ambivalence is the Rational Recovery definition of addiction.
In essence, the RR method is to first make a commitment to planned, permanent abstinence from the undesirable substance or behavior, and then equip oneself with the mental tools to stick to that commitment. While nomenclature differs, the methods are similar to those used in Beck et al.'s Cognitive Therapy of Substance Disorders (see Beck et al.) and other belief-, attitude- and appraisal-challenging and cognitive restructuring schemes (see Garrett).
The RR program is based on recognizing and defeating what the program refers to as the "addictive voice" (internal thoughts that support self-intoxication) and dissociation from addictive impulses. The specific techniques of Addictive Voice Recognition Technique (AVRT) are concerned with demonstrating to the practitioner that the practitioner is in control of the addictive voice, not the other way around. In his book, rational recovery, Jack Trimpey, calls the addicts addictive voice " the beast". He proposes that this is the sole reason why addicts continue their self destructive ways. Futhermore, by recognizing any feelings, image, urge, etc.that supports drinking/drugging as "beast activity", the compulsions will fall silent, and the person can eventually regain control over their life and never worry about relapses.
The notions that internal thoughts support self-intoxication and that the practitioner is in control of the addictive voice have become foundational in "evidence-based" treatment schemes at more progressive substance abuse treatment facilities in the US, Australia and the UK. These facilities base their programs on the success of Rational-Emotive Behavioral Therapy (see Albert Ellis et al.), Cognitive/Behavioral Therapy (see Aaron Beck et al., Cognitive Appraisal Therapy (see Richard Wessler et al.), and Schematherapy (see Jeffrey Young et al.) for anxiety and depression, as well as for substance abuse.
While RR and AA promote abstinence, the programs use different strategies. RR actually repeatedly makes it clear that there is no better time to construct a "big plan" to abstain from dinking/drugging than now, and that AA's idea of "one day at a time" is actually contradictory to the idea of never using again. Essentialy, it proposes that if you are never going to drink again, then there isn't a reason to keep track of time.
· RR does not regard alcoholism as a disease, but rather a voluntary behavior. · RR discourages adoption of the forever "recovering" drunk persona. · There are no RR recovery groups (although meetings were held throughout the country during the 1990s). · Great emphasis is placed on self-efficacy (see Bandura). · There are no discrete steps and no consideration of religious matters.

== Are the pills not helping? ==
If you have discovered that antidepressants, mood stabilizers, anti-psychotics and similar drugs are not helping you, or if you suspect that they may actually be doing you harm, you owe it to yourself to do some research. Do NOT stop or start any medication without first consulting a healthcare professional. Going cold-turkey with some psychiatric drugs can have serious consequences for your health, and can even be fatal. Get educated, then make your choice.
Peter R. Breggin, MD, has been called "the conscience of psychiatry" for his efforts to reform the mental health field, including his promotion of caring psychotherapeutic approaches and his opposition to the escalating overuse of psychiatric medications, the oppressive diagnosing and drugging of children, electroshock, lobotomy, involuntary treatment, and false biological theories.
A Harvard-trained psychiatrist and former full-time consultant at NIMH, Dr. Breggin's private practice is in Ithaca, New York, where he treats adults, couples, and families with children. He also offers consultations in clinical psychopharmacology and often acts as a medical expert in criminal, malpractice and product liability suits. He is the author of many scientific articles and books including Medication Madness: A psychiatrist exposes the dangers of mood-altering medications (2008).
If you cannot obtain any literature on this subject, ask the medical staff at your facility to educate you about the risks and drawbacks inherent in psychoactive drugs. Ask them to read these books: Medication Madness (2008) vividly portrays dozens of real-life case histories of people driven toward mayhem, murder and suicide by psychiatric drugs. The theme of medication spellbinding is intertwined with each of the stories. The book concludes with guidelines for living drug-free. After writing books for more than forty years, Dr. Breggin believes that Medication Madness is by far his most interesting, well-written and exciting book. Brain-Disabling Treatments in Psychiatry (2008) is the the most complete presentation of Dr. Breggin's comprehensive and detailed scientific views with analyses of many topics including:
· Medication spellbinding · Adverse drug effects caused by every type of psychiatric drug · Adverse effects of ECT · ADHD and the drugging of children · The failure of the FDA · Drug company negligence · How to more safely withdraw from psychiatric drugs · Alternative psychosocial approaches · Guidelines for effective psychotherapy

you are enduring a difficult divorce, you are being forced into paternity and/or an unfair child support obligation against your wishes, you are a victim of domestic violence, you want to escape the narrow gender role restrictions imposed on men, you have been hurt by a false accusation, parental alienation or employment discrimination, you are a divorced father fighting for child custody or more time with your children, you want to discuss any area of men's liberation, including men wearing skirts or men working in non-traditional jobs, you want to explore sexist double standards confronting men during dating and in their relationships with women, you suffer from the lingering effects of conscription or circumcision or any other form of sexism or violence against men, you want to learn more about gender politics or any other aspect of the movement for men's equal rights.
The Clancy Litigation Group Our Mission:
Sexual and physical abuse crimes are highly-charged emotional and legal issues that tragically affect all the individuals involved in such allegations. For too long, innocent victims of these heinous crimes were unable to count on the justice system to protect them. In an effort to correct the inadequacies of the courts, however, legislators, prosecutors and many powerful interest groups have created laws that now make it easier than ever to be falsely accused and convicted of rape, physical abuse and child molestation.
This occurs through: • Unreliable and unscientific interviews with children • Dubious"syndrome evidence" from mental health professionals • Inconclusive medical examinations
These have all lead to a huge increase in false allegations from both children and adult "survivors".
We became involved in this field in 1979 but the technology did not exist to share our resources with others on a large scale. With the development and expansion of the Internet a method of disseminating this information was finally available to us. In 1995 we created Falsely Accused.com to help those falsely accused of different forms of abuse including: • CHILD MOLESTATION • RAPE • SHAKEN BABY SYNDROME • INTERNET POLICE STINGS • CHILD PHYSICAL ABUSE • SPOUSAL ABUSE
Our purpose is to help the falsely accused by providing them with resources to understand the source of the false allegations against them and with resources necessary to defend themselves. The task we are undertaking is enormous. We are attempting to network professionals, laymen, research, and resources for those who are falsely accused. These resources will focus on the latest research in memory, suggestibility, and medical examinations. We will also be including networking or links to other WEB pages concerned with these issues.

We also assist our clients, once they are freed, with reintegration into society on a self-reliant basis. CM has a very narrow criteria for the types of cases that we will consider reviewing. Please review our stated criteria: (1) We only consider murder or rape cases within the U.S. as well as Canada that carry a life or death sentence. We do NOT consider self-defense or accidental death cases. We will only consider a rape case if there is the possibility of using DNA testing to clear the convicted person. We do NOT consider child sex cases unless the case has physical evidence that could be scientifically tested to prove innocence. (2) You must be absolutely 100% innocent of the crime and have had absolutely no involvement whatsoever with the crime. (3) You must be indigent and have largely exhausted your appeals. (4) We are NOT lawyers and, therefore, we do NOT offer legal assistance to those who petition us for help. We CANNOT make referrals to attorneys. If the inmate does fit ALL of our criteria, their initial letter to us should be brief, outlining the facts of the crime, and what led to their arrest for the crime. Inmates should NOT send briefs or transcripts of other materials! We just want to hear the facts in the inmate's own words. We in turn will send them a letter that outlines exactly what information we want, and what they can expect from us in the way of assistance.

Progressive supranuclear palsy is a movement disorder that occurs from damage to certain nerve cells in the brain.
Dementia-nuchal dystonia; Richardson-Steele-Olszewski syndrome; Palsy - progressive supranuclear
Progressive supranuclear palsy is a condition that causes symptoms similar to those of Parkinson's disease .
It involves damage to many cells of the brain. Many areas are affected, including the part of the brainstem where cells that control eye movement are located. Also affected is an area of the brain that controls steadiness when you walk. The frontal lobes of the brain are also affected, leading to personality changes.
The cause of the damage to the brain cells is unknown. The disease gets worse over time.
People with this condition have deposits in brain tissues that look like those found in patients with Alzheimer's disease . There is a loss of tissue in most areas of the brain and in some parts of the spinal cord.
The disorder is most often seen in people over 60 years old, and is somewhat more common in men.
Symptoms may include any of the following:
An exam of the nervous system (neurological examination) may show:
The health care provider may do the following tests to rule out other diseases:
The goal of treatment is to control symptoms. There is no known cure for progressive supranuclear palsy.
Levodopa or other drugs block the action of a nervous system chemical called acetylcholine. They may temporarily reduce some symptoms, such as rigid limbs or slow movements. But these medications are usually not as effective as they are for Parkinson's disease.
Many people with this condition will eventually need around-the-clock care and monitoring as they lose brain functions.
Treatment sometimes can reduce symptoms for a period of time, but the condition will get worse. Brain function will decline over time. Death commonly occurs in 5 to 7 years.
Newer drugs are being studied to treat this condition.
Call your health care provider if you often fall, and if you have a stiff neck/body and vision problems.
Also, call if a loved one has been diagnosed with progressive supranuclear palsy and the condition has declined so much that you can no longer care for the person at home.

FASHION CULTURE: Lovers of fashion exhibitions have plenty of options during Paris Fashion Week.
It might be ready-to-wear season, but "Paris Haute Couture" will take center stage starting March 2. The exhibition, held at the Hôtel de Ville, brings together approximately 100 haute couture dresses from the collections of the fashion museum Musée Galliera, which is set to reopen after renovation in September.
Swarovski, which has historically worked with many couture designers, is supporting the exhibition.
Another off-site exhibition held by the Musée Galliera is "Mannequin — le Corps de la Mode" (or "Model — the Body of Fashion" in English). The show, staged at Les Docks, the design and cultural center on the eastern fringes of Paris, explores the role of models over time through nearly 120 images of fashion mannequins, from videos and magazines, plus wax effigies.
Originally created for the Rencontres d'Arles 2012 summer photography festival, the exhibition includes the work of photographers Horst P. Horst, Erwin Blumenfeld, Henry Clarke, Helmut Newton, Guy Bourdin, Nick Knight, Corinne Day and Juergen Teller.
Meanwhile, the show "Arrrgh! Monstres de Mode" ("Arrrgh! Monsters of Fashion") at the Gaîté Lyrique was inspired by the transformative nature of contemporary fashion and animated characters in the digital age. It features more than 80 fashion looks and installations by 55 artists and designers, who were chosen for their experimentation with atypical forms and extreme volumes. These include Alexander McQueen, Walter Van Beirendonck, Maison Martin Margiela, Issey Miyake and Dai Fujiwara.
On the retail scene, Galeries Lafayette will hold Danish designer Henrik Vibskov's first solo exhibition in Paris, from Feb. 27 to May 4. That will run in the Galerie des Galeries exhibition space inside the Paris department store. And the BHV is hosting a show for designer Sakina M'Sa, called "Eco-Système de la Mode" ("Fashion Ecosystem").

Don't Forget! SPOOKY October Events! Saturday, October 26th is Coffins on Parade!
Often, people come up to me and ask, is our house haunted? Well - we did have the ghost hunters of San Antonio come visit us a few years ago - it was an up all night event going through all the rooms with tools and flash lights. They found a few hot spots (you will have to come visit to ask where they are)...but not as much evidence as they thought they even might find.


text:
quote:I thought the same thing at first (I was in the MCW camp)...but now I believe we have a top 10 player in the association. Maybe top 5 in a year or so.
quote:Couple that with enough guard talent around him, we are a rebounder away from seriously contending in the next 2 years. Adjust the touches to feature Davis more and we near the top of the association.
quote:You need more than one star to win in the NBA.
quote:We can be a nice team in 2 years. We're miles away and with limited roster flexibilty from being a serious contender.
quote:We can be a nice team in 2 years. We're miles away and with limited roster flexibilty from being a serious contender
quote:I disagree. Anthony Davis if he continues on pace will be a top 3 player in the league in two years, the guards are more than enough. It's simply about getting a solid back up big. Truth be told, if AD could develop into "enough of a 5" to at least negate the natural advantages the Howards,Gasols,Hibberts and Lopezes of the world, than the Pels are in good shape.
quote:Eh, Lebron was the best player in the league and he couldn't win without Wade and Bosh. Kobe couldn't win without Shaq and Gasol. The closest thing to a team with one superstar would be the Spurs and even they had a three-headed monster that rotated the load. I'm not saying we're doomed forever I just think it was an incredibly shortsighted decision. Let's not even address the fact that if Noel returns healthy it was 100% the dumbest move we could have made. Noel being out is a tailormade situation for us to suck hard this year and get Noel back next year plus a Wiggins/Parker/Smart. Are you f'n kidding me? That would be by far the best young trio since Westbrook, Durant and Harden.
quote:You seem to have a hard and fast opinion. Trust me, your screen name aside, neither you nor anyone on this board is a basketball Nostradamus. Noel was/is a huge risk who, in his limited college career, showed nothing close to Anthony Davis.
quote:Wiggins, in spite of all the amateur white adolescent boys jizzing in their pants, is far from a proven NBA can't miss.
quote:This current Pelicans roster is far from final. It's just a start. We've got our lottery pick franchise already. The rest will likely come from trades and, yes, FA signings. The roster does have tradeable assets, and FA's will come for the right situation and money. So, unless you believe that every franchise other than those in New York, L.A., Miami, Chicago or Boston should just pack it in and call it day . . . GTFO.
quote:Moving forward into the 2014 lottery with a possibility to snag Wiggins or Parker to fill the 3...
quote:It wouldn't have even been funny. Even if Noel never turns into anything we come out on top IMO.
quote:You put faaaaarrrrrrr too much faith in NBA draft probabilities. I'd be interested in the track record of each of the top ten picks, by slot, for the last ten years. Actually, I think we've had something like that posted previously. Draft picks can be valuable but they're a huge gamble in the NBA. . . moreso than the NFL. We'll see.
quote:1st round in the 2013 All-Star roster.
quote:There's not a single individual drafted outside the 1st round in the 2013 All-Star roster
quote:Kobe will be on the All Star roster this year.
quote:You know a lot of teams suck/tank for multiple years in a row and somehow they're still at the top of the draft and don't go anywhere.
quote: The average pick of the starting roster of the 2013 NBA All-Star is the 5th pick overall. The average pick of the backups is the 10th pick overall. There's not a single individual drafted outside the 1st round in the 2013 All-Star roster.
quote:VOR's point, how many 1st rounders in the past 7 years or so that aren't even in the league anymore. Draft picks are a gamble.

It will be weird as hell seeing us without Nick and Homer but it should be a fun season either way. I say 3-1 good guys! GO WINGS!
Wings win 14-3. Goal and 13 assists for Datsyuk.
Im stuck with the blues broadcast... because they won the division last year... GM of th eyear, and Coach of the year... theyre treating this damn thing like they won the stanley cup.. haha jeez...
that was quite the pathetic powerplay.
I hope Kronwall has Backes as his number one target.
Would love to see Tootoo drop them with Backes.
Well we are getting thoroughly dominated so far. Getting out of our zone in a controlled fashion just seems impossible right now, and we're losing just about every one-on-one battle.
The Blues forecheck is relentless. A lot of size and speed up front on that team.
I would love to have a player like Backes.
how the hell is tarasenko all alone... ugh... unreal.
Wow, Quincey, wow...
Just wow.
That was Lebdariffic.
Blues look so much more energized.
Someone should go over there and punch that fat idiot Polak in the face. He fired that slapshot after the whistle blew.
Colaiacovo out for the season.
Colaiacovo: the walking injury report
This is a clinic... and the Wings are not doing the schooling.
Here comes out PK, hopefully this won't be as bad as everything else that's been out there so far.
is this the feeling the islanders fans feel every game?
Well this period has been spectacular. Can we just go back to the lockout?
And the sack of s*** scores against us.
I wish Bertuzzi would paralyze this guy.
This has been a pathetic effort so far by the Wings. If this is what's in store for the next 47... I want the lockout back.
We may see a cup-contender here, but its not the team wearing the red and white jerseys
Wow, our defense sucks. Just completely sucks. Another Blues PP..
here comes 3-0.
Come on ... that wasnt a dive.. that was interference all the god damn way. accept it, this team is getting out played, they know it, that was a play made out of total desperation by our hapless D.
We are getting owned. Combo of both the Wings flat and the Blues are bringing it.
PS. The way this game is going they don't need Redden
A lot of over reaction going on right now. The Wings are just rusty, things will pick up in the 2nd period.
Ok. Im glad youre willing to admit that losing to the best team in the league, arguably, on opening night isnt the end of the world.
Im so sick of listening to this idiot, and darren pang all over the jock of Tarasenko in this broadcast already...
I wish I could get FS-D here in Canada...
I'm ok with losing to the best team in the league, but there's a difference between losing and getting dominated.
Haha Quincey is a joke. Man I'm done trying to defend him. He is absoutely awful.
And apparently now I see why theyre all over his jock... unreal.
Quincey getting undressed by the rookie.
So they have more goals than we have shots.
Quincey is brutal. Wow.
I am not even going to blame it on rust. The Blues look mid season form, Red Wings look like soft Euros...
I love that people were giving me endless s*** a couple years ago when I said the Blues were shaping up to be a real good team. Lot of people changing their tune now; lot of people unwilling to look at reality and critically think about how things will look in the long run before. And a lot of those same people not surprisingly are the ones who didn't think the Wings had anything to worry about.
This team simply doesn't give a s***, getting totally outhit and outworked.
Wow just terrible. We are the biggest perimeter team.
It's got to be a comforting feeling when playing against the Wings knowing that when there's a scrum, you really don't have to be afraid of anyone.
To say we suck tonight would be insulting to things that suck, like Justin Bieber, Kim Kardashian, and Dyson vacuum cleaners.
Here we go. Power play time, let's try and get it in their zone, and maybe even get a shot!
2:00 of failed entry upcoming.
Have to score on this PP.
alright this powerplay isn't too bad. Decent looking.
Our defense isf****** pathetic.
This is going to be a longf****** season.
Anotherf****** breakaway.
This might be the worst Wings game I have ever watched.
I could be out getting laid right now, instead I'm sitting here watching this s***.
Oh for f***s sake, just as I was about to say "at least we're getting some chances this PP".
I'm buying a Blues jersey after this one.
My wife left the room about 10 min ago because I "looked very angry".
I have an idea for a fun game. Everyone guess
a) which Wing will score first
b) who will get the first assists
c) which month it will happen in
the honest fact is that we are not on the Blues level simple as that
Yup, 7 shots, through 2 periods, with 4 goals against.
Pathetic doesnt even begin to describe it.
Another forward, in behind all of our defense....
what af****** joke.
Just pathetic.
Thats what... 4 times now?
how the hell do we keep giving up these breakaways???
Walked out of the room to go to the bathroom. Figured the game would start while I was gone. Then figured it'd be 5-0 by the time I got back. What do you know...
Crowd chanting "Detroit Sucks!" Frick that crowd, what do they know? Oh wait....tonight, they just may be right...
What's the penalty for? The ref was shocked a player in white attempted to hit someone
tootoo gets a 10 minute misconduct????
Wow.. what a joke the NHL has become.
Tootoo gets screwed by the refs.
Tootoo gets kicked out for being a hockey player.
Than you Bettman for making this a worse league. They tossed him because he might get into a fight later.
What a freaking joke hockey has become.
So, this is what fans of bad teams feel like? I don't like it. I don't like it at ALL!
Sure, he left his feet... but he didnt hit anyone...
its only a penalty if he leaves his feet, and actually hits someone.
Its ridiculous that they threw him out of the game for it.
4 PP goals against... what af****** joke.
6-0. Unbelievable. So we're 1 for 5 on the PK now?????? Just checking.
St Louis could put the 4th line out on the powerplay and still score.
Good thing i'm at work right now. I'd have probably destroyed my new 60" plasma by now.
Watched a few highlights from other games. They are starkly different. I know we love hyperbole in bad games, but the Wings honestly look like a minor league team. Even the stars look like rookies. Holy crap.
(this last one's my favorite)
Jackman is lucky the ref stepped in there.
Franzen would have dropped him.

quote:That's pure idiotic assumption on your part
quote:Right, because AJ McCarron spends his game day prep dressing up in the team hotel and tweeting the pictures
quote:. What else you got, bro?
quote:Really curious as to how you know what AJ's personal habits (and Metts) really are on game day.
quote:I don't know much about McCarron's personal habits -- aside from some God-awful tattoos --
quote: but I do know that he would not dare tweet his clowning around on gameday to the world.
quote:Mett's gameday prep for Towson included dressing up like Ron Burgundy. He then made the Tiger Walk dressed the same.
quote:Well, there you go. It was just a gut feeling you were pulling out your ass. I thought so, but you may be McCarrons hair dresser or something, so thought I would give it a shot.
quote:You do realize all the players dress up in suits for the tiger walk right?
quote:What was he supposed to do, carry a laptop with him on the tiger walk watching game film?
quote:So the frick what if the guy wore a suit similar to ron burgandy for the tiger wal
quote:We live on rushing the football. When we can't do that, we can't run playaction and our offensive scheme does not allow for us to rely on the pass to win games.
quote: Do you disagree? Do you think that McCarron does that on gameday? Do you think Saban & Co. wonder whether their QB has his hea din the game or thinking about tracking down some coeds?
quote: see you may live in the Great Frontier, so I'll excuse the ignorance. Mett's gameday prep for Towson included dressing up like Ron Burgundy
quote:Oh, and thanks Captain Obvious.
quote:Oh no, I had no clue. Nice try dumbass. Yes, the other players ACTUALLY dress up and look serious. This clown (as W. Blackwell stated) plays dress up.
quote:Who ever said that? Would be nice though if he did some of that instead of living in the local bar scene.
quote:Can't help you here. If that's what you think your QB ought to be doing on gameday, you are too far gone for help.
quote:But you are right, the issues are clearly that Mett wore a turtle neck before townson.
quote:Then why the frick are you calling for the QB to be benched when it isn't the qb who is the reason for the offense being bad?
quote:quote: Can't help you here. If that's what you think your QB ought to be doing on gameday, you are too far gone for help. The only thing I care about my 18-23 year old players do is prepare, execute and stay out of trouble. What ever the guy wears as long as it isn't bad publicity for the university doesn't matter to me. The guy can show up dressed like Elvis if he wants to.
quote:WAKE THE FCK UP MORON. The QB is A reason (i.e. one of many) that the offense has been bad. You are the type of fan that has blind allegiances/illogical opinions, because I'd bet a sizable sum of money that if it were JJ behind center, you'd be calling for Mettenberger. The bottom line is that he is just not that good. He's not this bad either, but he's not that good.

Rated 4.7 out of 5 by 14
Rated 5 out of 5 by PixelPusher Easy to put on.
I love these shirts! They are soft and comfy but most importantly easy to put on baby. No more having to pull shirts over the baby's head. Highly recommend!
May 25, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 Love these shirts
My son lived in them for the first month or so of his life. The best because they don't have to go over his head. Wish I'd gotten white though because if our next baby is a girl... just something to consider.
May 24, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by CTBaby Perfect Shirt
Wish we had more! We used these shirts as sleep shirts for our newborn. The cotton is super soft, and the cross over style makes it easy to dress the baby. The fold over cuffs at the hands are a nice touch. The shirt was a little big for newborn size, but by 4-5 weeks it fit my son perfectly at about 10 lbs.
May 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by motheringnaomi Plain & Simple
These are great long-sleeved additions to baby's first wardrobe. Size-wise they run a little large for my baby girl, so she'll be getting more use out of them as she gets bigger.
March 24, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by IamLT So comfy!
I would sometimes to laundry just so that I could put these on my little dude because they were so soft and he looked so comfy in them. My only complaints are that the shirts seem to be slightly smaller than the pants so he grew out of them before he did the pants and the colors are slightly different. Otherwise he had these on ALL the time, he looked like the cutest Smurf ever!!
March 21, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by galadrielNYC A must.
I don't even know what the first couple months at home would have been like without these kimono style tops. My little guy lived in them. When your changing upwards of 12 diapers a day, this is what you want.
March 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by LANYC Best bang for organic buck
If you're like me and want nothing but pure, organic things to touch your newborn, it'll be hard for you to avoid spending a lot of money!! My compromise was to go organic with all my little guy's undershirts, onesies, and socks - and then sometimes go conventional with the outer layers. This is the product I got the most use out of. He's three months old and still getting using the 0-3 mo. He actually outgrew the onesie version of this earlier. Babies torsos probably just vary so much in length, it's probably hard for them to design one that will fit a 'standard baby.' Ultimately, I found this purchase to be the most valuable. A definite staple in my newborn's wardrobe!
March 18, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by HST601 Fantastic Quality!
Kimono tops are such a necessity for a newborn. These are such a delight - thick, soft, luxurious quality. Wish I could have a hundred of them!

Cantor Museum, Stanford University Palo Alto
How are the boundaries between social classes and identities challenged and transcended? This exhibition explores that question. Eighteenth-century Chinese paintings demonstrate how artists outside palace walls reproduced the subject and styles of imperial court paintings in order to fulfill commissions by patrons of a rising social class. Japanese woodblock prints examine how cross-dressing actors in Kabuki theater became trendsetters for the world off-stage. And through his photographs, Chinese contemporary artist Cang Xin steps into different professions and identities. Forty-four works on display.

DALLAS -- Three years ago, Hope Davenport went to class at Lake Highlands High School, thinking it would be her last time.
She had planned to take her own life that night. "I had a bottle of pills and a rope in my room waiting for me," she said. Davenport, a junior at the time, says she felt alone and sad.
Her state of depression had spiraled out of control. The only out, in her eyes, was to end her life. But what she didn't know when she walked into school that day was that her perspective would change.
She sat with the rest of the student body as Darrell Scott spoke to the crowd about his daughter Rachel.
Rachel Scott was the first victim killed in the Columbine High School shootings. She's the inspiration behind Rachel's Challenge, a program that encourages service and good deeds. Her story is both emotional and inspirational and for Davenport it was both.
"They just ended up coming on the day that my plan was supposed to take place," she said. Davenport says it changed everything. "It stopped me."
That night, Davenport went home - moved the rope and put up the pills. She later told a student leadership class about her plan to take her life. The group, quiet at first, soon began to stand up and one by one, hugged her.
Hope Davenport had found exactly what she had been looking for - hope.
"Rachel. Rachel's challenge convinced me not to take my life. Because you never know the impact you're going to make on others," she said.
Davenport hopes to spread that inspiration with her own story. She has since graduated high school and gotten married.
She is now expecting her first child in December.

I just wanted to share a story with you all that I found amusing:
A few friends and I went to Total Hockey in Chesterfield on Friday and we met Erik Johnson. I decided to make a joke with him, so I handed him a quarter and said, "this may come in handy if you ever have to catch a cab with Patrick Kane." He laughed and said, "Dude, you gave me too much. Give me two dimes." I told him the extra .05 could be the tip.
We continued to take a picture with Johnson, and I asked him to hold the quarter up in the picture. He obliged.
As I was walking away, he asked me if I wanted the quarter back. I told him to keep it and throw it at Kane when they play against the Blackhawks, and his response was epic. "I don't know man, he might throw a golf ball at me."
I found this exceptionally funny. I thought it was so cool how he was okay with making a joke like that to a complete stranger. Just another reason why I believe that professional hockey players are truly the nicest people when comparing them with other sports figures.
