How Do I Let Go of the Only Guy I Have Ever Loved?
Imagine my horror when I walked into my dad's family house and saw him sitting with my grandma and my dad. The look on his face was indescribable when my dad introduced me as his daughter. We had not met earlier cos my dad stopped talking to his elder sister (his mum) way before they got married over some stupid mistake my aunt made.
Apparently, he came back to settle the dispute between the family members. Now, he says he's in love with me. We were always together through out our stay in my country home (our parents think it's the same bond his mum and my dad shared when they were younger that extended to us). How do I tell my family that I have been intimate with my cousin and that I'm in love with him? God knows I have done my best to forget about him but it's just not working. I think about him all the time and he's having the same problem! How do I let go of the only guy I have ever loved? I'm so confused!

And last night episode made may u write this, cause it getting more crazy. And I could recall discussing the topic early wit one of my team @ work.

before God smite you two with a curse, his your first cousin for Gods sake, yall's kids will have genetic problems, plus it is wrong in the eyes of the lord.Infact consider yourselves brother and sisters, it cannot happen, you better force yourself to forget, before you two go any further, it is the devil at work, fight the temptation, start seeing him like ur brother cuz that is what he is to you.

Its not ur fault for falling in love or being intimate wiv ur cousin, bcos u didnt know.... Buh pls for ur own good
1) After findin out he is ur cousin, theres no way u can still be in love wiv this dude
2) U nid to go to ur pastor for series of prayers and deliverance and forgiveness of sins for both ur parents and aunt, and also for being intimate wiv ur cousin
3) U nid to make sure u stopp every form of contact wiv dis cousin of urs
May God help ya - Chika**14 January, 2013 23:42
Honey, for the fact he is your cousin, should make you forget about him. You shouldn't be thinking about love now. May God help you!!!

Intimate? U fucked him already? Then its harder to forget. But if you put your mind to it, you can do it. Tell yourself over and over again that he's your cousin. Occupy your time with activities you enjoy, make new friends, learn new hobbies/games/sports, write a book etc

Please o, on this blog, we say it as it is. No time for sugar coating the truth.
Please confirm:
1. "We met briefly". Does that mean you slept with him briefly?
2. "We were always together through out our stay in my country home". Does that mean you continued sleeping with him under your father's roof?
3. Let's assume your father never even told you about him or his mum. This guy came to settle the family quarell so he knew your grandma's name, your father's name and address, did your name not ring a bell with him? Did you not discuss respective places of origin?
And your father is so unforgiving he didn't speak to his sister in 20 years? 30 years? More than?

Very possible my dad doesnt talk to one of his siblings hasnt even seen her in like 25yrs, only one of them talks to the sister so she gives the others updates about her and vice versa. its a running joke in my family to ask any guy or girl you meet about his mother, where shes from and all

Well..Just Let Go Of Him I Guess.
You Don't Need A Long Epistle To Know The 'Why' Of It. Pathetic...but then, its as simple as ABC, forget him and move on. And I believe this is the hand work of devil (lolz) for letting you stay lonely until it connects you to your cousin.
You better let go, in fact fear ought to have made you develop dislike for him by now, or are you thinking of getting married to him? Is he another Michael Jackson or Justin Bieber that you can't let go? What's your problem? There are better guys than him in all qualities out there, so free your mind and move on gurl!- Anonymous15 January, 2013 06:52

What is a sin against God? Foolish people.its only in Africa that it is a major problem because of our extended family system....even in our mAtrimonial laws in Nigeria,cousin is not a forbidden degree of relationship...as for bible,point a place where it was written that it is wrong? Abram married his half sister?isaac nko.jacob married his cousin.even Mary n Joseph were cousins or somewhat related.before pouring out your insults,I dare any of you to give me a bible verse?or chapter.n did God strike anyone down for that? Even medically,theres no evidence or case of cousins giving birth to deformed babies in the first generation of birthing.it is only continuous and sustained practice that leads to that.....
I'm not saying you should continue or not(cos you know the moralists here make things sound so easy without any sympathy) but I'm just stating factsReplies- Anonymous15 January, 2013 19:59
You need Bible school. God and foolish should not be used in the same place.
Read Leviticus, Samuel (Absalom etc.)
When God first created humans they were genetically perfect and incest was not harmful and the only way for them to procreate at first. After the flood, a layer of water that was on top of the atmosphere was emptied, it was what protected the sun's rays from damaging Human DNA. Before the flood people could live for a very long time and were very large in size and so was everything else like the trees and plants, everything was supersize: Methuselah the oldest person on earth was 969 years old. After the flood the sun's rays shortened the human lifespan dramatically and there came a point at which incest could no longer be allowed because it was harmful and God forbade it. - Anonymous15 January, 2013 20:01
Well it was not regulated until the Law of Moses - and that prohibited it. So from Adam to Moses, it was allowed. But it was no incest at the time. Intermarriage would better describe it. You cannot break a law where there is no law to break.

Ephesians Chapter 6
Matthew Chapter 18
Romans Chapter 1

I will not add verses. Read all the chapters and find it there yourself. I am sure incest is your thing. I forgot you are a Northerner. In Christianity it is forbidden okay.
You sound like an illiterate when you talk about even medically. Do your research and educate yourself on genetics. - Anonymous16 January, 2013 17:45
Anonymous 19:59.....u stated that God forbade it without backing it up with any verse or bible quotation....where did God forbid marrying your cousin.all these tales about metuselah lack merit.tell me where it was forbidden? Incest is forbidden but to the Jews and I tell you,even to this day,marriage to your cousin is not incest to them.....what God condemned was Lot's daughters sleeping with him...even the story of absalom,he was condemned for raping his half sister not marrying his cousin.this my dear is a common practice in the middle east from time immemorial ....my point exactly?condemn something based on its merit.dont condemn it with the bible because you'll be surprised wat you'll see

Anon 20:05....not to take much of your time.ephesians talks about edification of the church.matthew about looking at a woman lustfully,Romans n Timothy about what the early church faced in lystra,antioch and lust generally,Galatians about the fruits of the holy spirit...I see you're the type that likes pulling verses for show.a good product of good pastoring but my dear,you're no bible scholar.nowhere in your quotations did God or the apostles or Jesus condemn marrying your cousin.expressly,impliedly or even remotely....
Now take your pen out and take notes
Genesis 24:12-51__isaac married his first cousin rebekkah as God commanded
Genesis 28-29----Jacob took his two cousins Leah and racheal as wives
Numbers 36-----Zelophehad's five orphaned daughters were commanded to marry thier first cousins
1 chronicles 23:22....eleazar's daughter married 1st cousin as instructed
Leviticus 18....the degree of prohibitions were listed by God but nowhere was cousin mentioned
And in the new testament,nowhere and I mean nowhere was it condemned.Quote me pls.feel free
You speak as if being a northerner is bad,sad,considering you're so faithful.one would think you're the shiny example of ecumenical thinking....and feel free to call me an illiterate,I mean,how would Einstein sound to a cobbler?like a ranting mad man
I don't argue just to win.i do it to educate.i repeat,in the matrimonial causes act of Nigeria,the forbidden degrees of marriage were listed and cousin wasn't part of it.medically,I repeat,it doesn't lead to mutation of the genes in the 1 st or 2nd instance.it is sustained practice.if so,All d ancestors of the English would have been imbeciles.if you tell me our culture forbids it,il be quiet but telling me it's in the bible.......lol.no way - Anonymous16 January, 2013 19:46

Step 1: Learn at least a little something about your girl
How would you describe her? Edgy? Nature-y? Soft and romantic? Career/goal-oriented? Delicate or bold? Shy or outgoing? Funny, quirky, serious? Even just one or two descriptors will help.
Is she allergic to flowers? Worth finding out. If you don't want to be obvious and ask, find some flowers when you're out together for her to smell. That'll give you a good idea.
Step 2: What do you want to say?
- I like you and want to pursue something further?
- Thanks for a great evening?
- I'm totally in love with you and want everyone to know it?
- Happy birthday/anniversary/batmizvah?
- I'm really sorry for what I did/said/forgot?
- I was just thinking how much you might like these flowers for no reason at all? (this is an especially good one)
Step 3: Find a florist
If there's one near you, a farmers' market is also a great place to find fresh flowers and support local growers.

Really very good guide! So i use http://www.gelesinternetu.eu/en.htm they also have something different. :)
Very good guide :) - assuming you know the recipient well; i would also
like to add that there are loads of cultural obstacles - first i personally always send roses, but watch the following: e.g. never send
an even number of roses to someone with an Eastern background, white roses are a sensitive issue in the Asia culture, on the African
continent it is mainly about the colours - maybe see a small summary
here http://www.only-roses.com/- i use these guys in London all the time, they also have roses that last for more than one year. Happy Wife, Happy Live :)
This is a very detailed guide. We also have a similar blog post published here, for those of you who want to learn more.
Girls and flowers go side by side, a flower as a gift is always welcome as it doesn't oblige her too much as do the other costly items.
florists online
I have to say that the information here was the most complete that I found anywhere. I am definitely bookmarking this to come back and read later.
We produced quite a nice infographic about the meanings behind roses, its useful for choosing roses for an occasion if you are stuck!
We try to produce useful guides like that on our blog http://www.urbandesignflowers.co.uk/blog.cfm
I think it is really important to learn which
flowers girl prefers. For example, lilies are beautiful but if she doesn't like
their smell you'll not only waste your money but also make her uncomfortable –
she'll have to accept gift that she doesn't like or even is allergic to. If you
need to send flowers you can use this site http://megaflowers.com/ - they always manage to deliver
flowers as beautiful as shown on picture.
Nice guides about buying flowers. For buying a fresh and awesome
flowers, it is very essential to choose the right flower shop. For
buying luxury roses flowers, you can visit http://www.rosesonly.co.uk .
I've found a very huge collection of flowers on it when i visited.
Also based on my experience with women. Carnations rarely count as an acceptable flower even if from a florist carnation heavy bouquets tend to have a supermarket feel to them.
I shall buy you pretty smelling pink flowers, some day, if you so wish.
If you're in a relationship that isn't equal giving [or you know, pretty decently matched to be healthy] than that's a problem of the relationship, not so much the single spectrum social situation of valentine gift giving.
Presumably, you'd agree, there's more to a gift and more ways to give a gift than through traditional monetary avenues.
Sorry i made that complicated, at first I only wanted to snarkly offer you flowers
but witht this added statedment of assurtiveness - letting them know what color roses you like... i must retract my previous post...
But you weakened with your sale comment... Let Kinnishain know - You would like purple roses and hope they come in timem for V day... if they come in time you know the relationship has a foundation... if they don't we'l perhaps it's timem to move on.
But you don't need me to give advice - you've been with someone for 18years... between the two of you you must have one heck of a V-Day garden by now.
♫ Love is int he air ... purple roses if you dare... ♫
Well - i'd say that pretty much seals the deal Kinnishian...
He's willing to wait - and you can spend his money getting his purple roses.
a match made right here on Instructables...
it's so cute... aaaawwwhh... ;0)
On a more serious note - i've got some loving to tend to myself....so....
Happy V-Day to you and yours everyone.! ;0)
Those have their own meaning, which is a reference to the blending of two seed lines from two families joining. That exchange of seeds might be perceived as a subtle proposal for, Marriage. Are you certain you desire that level of commitment?
Perception would be as well dependant on the individual giver of packet of seeds personas. and how anilytical or over analytical the reciever is of the jesture.
any miss-perceptioon could easily be thrwarted by an additional token of say... a condom or ring... or a trowel and a bag of dirt.
Wouldn't you agree?
No carrots - just cucumbers... maybe that is why all my girls smile so much... hmmm...?
I also heard that there is a "Color Code" where the different color mean different things. (i.e. white - Purity, Red - Passion, Yellow - Innocence, etc)
Those three are the only ones I know, but I also know that there are a lot more.
Oh well, at least she was already married to me, so she couldn't just dump me for a BF who knew better.
A few rarer/expensive beautiful flowers > many cheap half-wilted/common blooms from the supermarket, and this is from a woman's perspective. Men may have different views about quality vs. quantity. Handpicked flowers always trump store bought ones, for many reasons. One is because we think it's cuter that you risked being caught in the act of picking flowers. It says something of your ego.
I've had boyfriends who used to bring back flowers from the grocery store across the street. Nice gesture, but I know he only got them because they were staring at him in the face at the express cash lane. Not very thoughtful, since the entire point of them being displayed there are for impulse buyers.
New boyfriend goes out of his way to bring back worthy flowers from elsewhere. Which is always more thoughtful, because I know that there are no proper florists directly on the way home.
Guys dig flowers too. I'm not sure why, but they always get all giddy when you do silly things just to show them you care. I've never had one give me a funny look for bringing flowers.

Hello everyone.
As I continue to scour throughout the internet for more anime to watch, I have also decided to start considering writing more seriously. On February 2011, I created an online journal for myself. I don't know where I was going with all of this at the time, but what motivated me to start one was the journal feauture that was on the now defunct anime/manga social website TinierMe. (This is the same site that led me to discover dreamself.me, which I introduced to Randori.)
Over a span of two years, I developed a more desirable Psychological state. This would inspire me to slowly come up with ideas and concepts for various stories in which character development was one of the big things I wanted to emphasize. My reaction to some of the anime in the mainstream has also motivated me to consider a well thought out plot as well, and since then, I've been premeditating these ideas for a long time (one story I came up with goes as far back as elementary school.)
However, I do not want to start on these projects yet. My goal right now is to be more proficient in three things: plot, character development, and setting. To do so, I would like to first start out at writing short stories and properly create stories that cater to some of my favorite genres which primarily include Fantasy and Science Fiction. I hope to soon be able to be better at writing stories that will eventually have Action and Adventure in them. But I am open-minded, so considering other genres isn't out of the question, although Slice of Life is an exception.
Many of you who have been in the site for awhile have been writing in the literature section of the website and I was wondering if any of you can give me some advice and tips for me to keep in mind. I will also be asking for advice from others beyond Snafu in order to give me a broader insight on this subject.
I appreciate your help.

Body lice are tiny insects (Pediculus humanus corporis) that are spread through close contact with other people.
Two other types of lice are:
Lice - body; Pediculosis; Vagabond's disease
Body lice live in the seams and folds of clothing. They feed on human blood and lay their eggs and deposit waste matter on the skin and clothing.
You can catch body lice if you come in direct contact with someone who has lice. You can also get lice from infected clothing, towels, or bedding.
Body lice are bigger than other types of lice.
You are more likely to get body lice if you do not bathe and wash your clothes often or live in close (overcrowded) conditions. Lice are unlikely to last if you:
Placing clothes in a hot dryer helps kill lice on clothing.
Lice causes severe itching. Itching is usually worse around the waist, under the arms, and places where clothing is tighter and closer to the body (such as near bra straps).
You may have red bumps on your skin. The bumps may scab or become crusty after scratching.
Skin around the waist or groin may become thickened or change color if you have been infected with lice in that area for a long time.
Your doctor will look at your skin and clothing for signs of lice.
You should also be checked for head and public lice if you have body lice.
Body lice mainly live in clothing. To get rid of lice, destroy infected clothing or carefully wash items in hot water (at least 130 degrees F), then machine dry using a hot cycle.
Your doctor may also prescribe a cream that you put on your skin or a wash that contains permethrin, malathione, or benzyl alcohol.
Bathing and washing clothes, bedding, and towels are most important steps in treating lice. Doing these things usually gets rid of the problem.
With effective treatment, the lice can be completely destroyed.
Scratching can make your skin more likely to become infected. Rarely, lice may carry uncommon diseases, such as trench fever. Because body lice spreads easily to others, people you live with and sexual partners need to be treated as well.
Call your health care provider if you have lice in your clothing or itching that does not go away.

Locate Yamaha TW200 parts for model years .These popular vendors also feature plenty of genuine Yamaha products, aftermarket TW200 parts, official and unofficial Yamaha riding clothes in all sizes including youth boy's and girl's sizes, and much more. Many of their items are priced below what you would pay at your local Yamaha dealer.
There are almost always choices between the OEM and the aftermarket products. OEM is essentially the recommended replacement part originally designed for your Yamaha street bike. Motorcycle manufacturers like Yamaha will always recommend OEM replacement parts. However, there are instances where the aftermarket products have actually improved on original engineering. Word of mouth and past experience with a certain aftermarket brand are two key factors in choosing between the originals or the aftermarkets for your bike.

Nepcon China Rocks! There is so much going on, so much potential, so many companies focussed on success, to be the best in their field, to be number one. Electronics in the West is like the Mississippi river, huge and powerful, but slow moving, quite boring actually. In China, it is like riding the rapids. This is where skill and vision come in to play.
Creating the best production factory is the key, a factory that can make anything, at a moment's notice, in an efficient and reliable way. Experience and know-how are important, to know what is right and not to cling to the momentum of obsolete practices that resist innovation to change. The SMT shop-floor is complex, comprising several different key roles, each with their own priorities and flows, each needing to work together for the operation to work optimally.
This is 2013, software systems are already all over the shop-floor, often as islands designed to, for example, operate or speed up a specific process, to monitor the performance of key machines, to gather defect information from repair stations. These kinds of "islands" of software have served the industry well for some time, growing up as in-house solutions, others from local suppliers who have made a business from developing solutions. Moving forward, how can software systems be used to differentiate the business against the competitors? Competitors after all, will also probably have similar systems and experience. To break out of the crowd is the goal, to create that clear differentiation.
As children grow up, they need bigger clothes. It is the same with software. Systems that offer point solutions, that is applications developed bearing in mind a specific issue and need on the shop-floor, are soon outgrown. As the business needs evolve, objectives change, the systems also need to change. Having many systems on the shop-floor has also no doubt led to the duplication of support effort and overlap of functionality. The next step must include having solutions that work together, sharing a common infrastructure, flexible enough to cope with any production innovation that comes along. In fact, these systems themselves should bring innovation into the operation. Whether it is new product introduction in half the time, optimisation of SMT for high mix and short notice changes whilst maintaining high efficiency, or whether it is control of materials to reduce costs and gain traceability, these are the opportunities to differentiate the business through innovation that competition does not yet have.
Nepcon China in Shanghai on the 23rd to 25th of April, should be a good show. For those attending the show, please don't miss the opportunity to come to our Mentor Graphics booth 1A18 and talk to us about how we can help you to differentiate your business with our Valor Software Suite.

Dear OncoLink "Ask The Experts,"
I had treatments for Hodgkin's Disease almost three years ago. I have had very normal blood levels and clear x-rays and CT scans since the end of treatment. I recently found out I am pregnant; my concern is that this pregnancy will cause a relapse of my cancer.
Selina M. Luger, MD, Director of the Leukemia Program and Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, responds:
There is fortunately no data to suggest that there is any increased risk of relapse with pregnancy, in Hodgkin's Disease. Although you will not be able to get the routing scans and x-rays, you should follow-up with your oncologist on your regular schedule during the pregnancy.
Dec 7, 2010 - Rituximab may be a better option than watchful waiting in some lymphoma patients, and a new treatment option appears effective for relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma, according to two studies being presented at the annual meeting of the American Society of Hematology, held from Dec. 4 to 7 in Orlando, Fla. Other research being presented will highlight new options for the standard treatment of advanced asymptomatic follicular lymphoma; mantle cell lymphoma; and early, unfavorable Hodgkin's disease.

Radar, cameras and ultrasonic sensors in the 2013 Cadillac XTS, backed by sensor fusion technology, enables a dozen driver information and safety features, including:
- Rear Automatic Braking
- Full-Speed Range Adaptive Cruise Control
- Intelligent Brake Assist
- Forward Collision Alert
- Safety Alert Seat
- Automatic Collision Preparation
- Lane Departure Warning
- Side Blind Zone Alert
- Rear Cross Traffic Alert
- Adaptive Forward Lighting
- Rear Vision Camera With Dynamic Guidelines
- Head Up Display
GM says the features are included in an optional Driver Assistance package due this fall.
"No sensor working alone provides all the needed information. That's why multiple sensors and positioning technologies need to work together synergistically and seamlessly," says Bakhtiar Litkouhi, GM Research and Development lab group manager for perception and vehicle control systems. "Sensor fusion will help facilitate that.
"We believe sensor fusion will enable future active safety systems to handle a greater number of inputs to provide 360 degrees of crash risk detection and enhanced driver assist features," Litkouhi adds.
Sensor fusion also is a building block in the development of semi- and fully autonomous vehicles that are designed to maintain lane position and adapt to traffic environments. Litkouhi predicts that technology to enable such vehicles will be available by the end of the decade.
GM's deployment of sensor fusion in the XTS builds on its experience with an autonomous vehicle that won the 60-mile DARPA (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) Urban Challenge in 2007 and its work on semi-autonomous EN-V electric concept vehicles unveiled at the 2010 Shanghai World Expo.
Also over the horizon are more advanced positioning systems with more accurate GPS and digital mapping, to help locate vehicles in relation to one another. GPS effectiveness can be limited in urban environments where high-rise buildings interfere with satellite signals, but GPS data can be fused with other sensing and positioning technologies.

About LASIK
LASIK is a surgical procedure that uses a laser to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and/or astigmatism. In LASIK, a thin flap in the cornea is created using either a microkeratome blade or a femtosecond laser. The surgeon folds back the flap, then removes some corneal tissue underneath using an excimer laser. The flap is then laid back in place, covering the area where the corneal tissue was removed.
With nearsighted people, the goal of LASIK is to flatten the too-steep cornea; with farsighted people, a steeper cornea is desired. LASIK can also correct astigmatism by smoothing an irregular cornea into a more normal shape.
If you are considering LASIK eye surgery, your first step is to choose a good LASIK surgeon who can evaluate whether LASIK is right for you. Your LASIK surgeon will examine your eyes to determine their health, what kind of vision correction you need, and how much laser ablation (corneal tissue removal) is required. The doctor will also ask about any health conditions that may disqualify you altogether for LASIK surgery.
If you are not a candidate for LASIK, you may qualify for another laser eye surgery such as PRK (similar to LASIK but without the flap), LASEK, or epi-LASIK. There are also non-laser vision correction procedures. Your prescription and eye structure will be considered to help determine which procedure is best for you.
LASIK is an outpatient procedure, so you don't have to stay at the surgery center overnight. The LASIK surgeon uses a computer to adjust the laser for your particular prescription. You will be asked to look at a target light for a short time while the laser sends pulses of light to painlessly reshape your cornea. The actual LASIK surgery usually takes less than five minutes.

If you're a new mom or dad, you probably have only one main concern—the health of your newborn. It's only natural to worry. But, one way you can decrease any worries is to arm yourself with information. Learn what symptoms to be on alert for and when to get medical care.
First Things First
Get accustomed to your newborn's usual routine. For example, how often does your baby eat and sleep? How many times do you usually need to change a diaper in one day? How does your baby normally respond to you? Your baby's typical behavior will help you to determine if your baby is feeling fine or if something is wrong.
Also, go with your instinct. If you think your baby may be ill, call the doctor right away. It is common for parents of newborns to call the pediatrician with questions and concerns. So, don't hesitate to get expert advice.
Be Prepared
You will feel more in control if you already have the following medical information close at hand:
- The name of your newborn's doctor and the phone number
- The doctor's office hours and on-call hours
- Instructions as to what to do during after-hours
- Location of the hospital that the doctor is affiliated with
- The name, phone number, and location of the pharmacy that you use
If you do need to call the doctor, be prepared for any questions that you may be asked, such as:
- What are your newborn's symptoms?
- What is his temperature? ( Note: Rectal thermometers are typically used with newborns.)
- How many bowel movements has he had? Does he have loose stools? How many wet diapers has he had?
- What vaccines has your newborn had? Are they up-to-date?
- Does he have any allergies or conditions?
- Does your newborn take any medicine? If so, what kind of medicine and what is the dose?
Also, keep in mind that you may need to write down any instructions that the nurse or doctor gives you. So, have a pen and paper handy.
Another way you can be prepared is by learning first aid and CPR for infants . The hospital may offer these classes or you can check online ( American Red Cross or the American Heart Association ).
Medical Concerns
Call the doctor if your newborn:
- Has a cough
- Has any eye problems, such as mucus or redness
- Has a runny nose, which can make it difficult to breath, even after using a rubber bulb aspirator
- Yellowish skin or eyes, without any other concerning symptoms
- Is vomiting
- Is eating less than usual or is having problems with breastfeeding, such as difficulty latching onto the nipple
- Is not having regular bowel movements
- Has stools that are looser than normal
- Is crying more than usual and is unable to be consoled
- Has problems sleeping
- Has blood or pus around the navel, or if circumcised, around the penis
- Has a rash
- Has ear drainage
- Is not responding to sounds
If your newborn has any of the following, call your doctor immediately:
- Rectal temperature above 100.4°F (38°C)
- Rectal temperature below 97.8°F (36.5°C)
- Any breathing problems, like difficulty breathing or fast breathing
- Other signs of not getting enough oxygen, like blue lips, nose, or fingernails
- Extreme tiredness or drowsiness, difficulty awakening
- Is limp
- Signs of dehydration , such as wetting less than six diapers in 24 hours, sunken eyes, sunken soft spot, no tears when crying
- Soft spot on the top of the head looks swollen
- Seizure
- Bloody urine, stool, or vomit
- Injury to any part of the body, especially the head
If you are extremely concerned and you think the situation is an emergency, call for medical help right away .
You can care for your newborn's health by knowing which symptoms to watch out for and by being prepared if medical care is needed. Remember that many moms and dads have felt the same way you do and have reached out for help and guidance from doctors and nurses. If at any time you feel concerned about your little one's health, call the doctor.

Fifteen of the most chronic offenders downtown have racked up 876 arrests and more than $176,000 in fines and court costs that will most likely never be collected.
Only a handful of those arrests have resulted in jail sentences — a fact that is frustrating both police and prosecutors. And even when these criminals get away with a fine, they don't pay it.
"The system is broken," said Lt. Jeff Karr, of the Sarasota Police Department. "There has to be a sentence to fit the crime."
'Three hots and a cot'
According to Karr, the revolving door begins when the most chronic offenders, all of whom are transients, want to get cleaned up and fed.
"They call it three hots and a cot," he said, referring to three hot meals and a bed in which to sleep. "They get arrested, so they're able to get a shower, food and any medication they need. Then they get out, get drunk and messed up again."
Their crimes range from minor offenses, such as open container, to more serious ones, such as resisting arrest and drug possession.
It's Whitney Coyne's job to prosecute those minor offenses, which make up the bulk of the arrests.
The assistant city attorney said he recommends a sentence for each offense, but it's up to the judge's discretion to decide what penalty to impose.
Judges Judy Goldman and David Denkin are most often assigned to these cases.
A lenient reputation?
In the halls of the police department, Goldman has a reputation for being lenient on many offenders, giving them fines and even allowing for payment plans to those who claim financial hardship. Even though many times the person receiving the fine or the payment plan has been offered the same plan in the past and has never paid.
Goldman, though, said that impression is misguided.
"When someone has done harm to or threatens someone else or there needs to be restitution, I'm not lenient," said Goldman.
She said she considers those factors before imposing a sentence. The maximum sentence she can impose for minor offenses is 30 days. If a judge sees a suspect at his arraignment, he's already spent 21 days in the county jail, so many times they're sentenced to time served.
Goldman said she's also under a lot of pressure to keep the jail free of minor offenders. Chief Judge Lee Haworth said the sheriff's office and the county, which are faced with paying the jail's bills, ask judges to carefully screen the people sentenced to jail, because the cost to the county to incarcerate these offenders is $75 to $80 a day.
"I think the judges are hesitant to put someone in jail for a minor offense," said Coyne.
Haworth said it's not only police and prosecutors who are frustrated with the current system.
"The judge's frustration is when you get someone with 10 or 11 open-container violations and you have to let them back out on the street, you're basically decriminalizing the law," said Haworth. "You're saying there is no punishment anymore."
Opportunity to abuse the system
For Clinton Scott, who has 112 arrests downtown and has accumulated more than $19,000 in unpaid fines and court costs, Coyne now recommends a jail sentence each time Scott faces a judge.
But court records show that although Scott has appeared in the Sarasota County courthouse since 1996, he has yet to be sentenced to jail. (See box for details.)
"There's got to be some deterrent," said Coyne. "When you're lenient on them, they view that as an opportunity to abuse the system."
Many of the arrests are for open container and illegal lodging. Coyne said that's because many of the most frequent offenders are alcoholics who can't be rehabilitated.
Most of the time, they can't sleep at the Salvation Army even if they wanted to, because it requires them to be sober.
"A lot of times they're frustrated with me, because I recommend jail time for them," said Coyne. "They don't agree that what they're doing should be against the law, especially on lodging."
As for collecting unpaid fines and court costs, the court system has two tools at its disposal — a collection agency specializing in unpaid court fees and a new Sarasota County collections court.
Fine collection nearly impossible
The collection agency is really the law firm Linebarger, Goggan, Blair & Sampson, which has offices nationwide.
Kelly Burnette, a partner at the firm, said he goes after everyone who fails to pay his court costs, but admits that collecting from transients is nearly impossible.
The collections court allows underprivileged defendants set up payment plans to pay their court costs and fines. If they don't pay, they're ordered to appear in collections court. If they don't show up in collections court, a warrant is issued for their arrest, and their driver's license is suspended.
"Some people make an extraordinary effort to pay, because they want to keep their license," said Goldman. "I cannot tell you how hard we try to collect court costs."
The threat of being arrested and losing a driver's license may scare most people straight — people who have jobs, need good credit and care about their reputations.
But, Coyne said the transients who are habitual offenders don't have those same concerns.
Said Karr: "They never pay, but somehow they're able to go buy their drugs and their alcohol. It's past the point of being ridiculous."

- i hope your happy. mr bell was severly beaten this morning on the street as a result of a heated discussion over your article. but something tells me that nobody there will be losing any sleep over it. i can't speak for all of the people arrested over and over again by the police (which alot of times is just plain harrasment.) but some of them like mr. bell need help not jail time. lets face it ,the whole penal system is a sham and needs complete overhaul but who is going to tackle that? if you lock a man up and he does not learn anything well the whole prosess was waste of time.

- The City and the County need to take a new look. put harden criminals in a Jail murder rape assult. and so on. A person with a minor offense put them in a half way house control them like a child use the salvation army as a resource they do not do the progam put them in jail a long time.
Not 30 days but 6 months with no ablity to be a trusty.this has been done inother areas. The problem is money not all should be given this privledge but there are people out there with mental illness where we as a society has neglected them not not having placement or the correct meds. we put them on the streets we turn our heads then point out how they are a problem.
It can be a solvable problem but is cost money that no one wants to give because these are throw away people. Shame on us. No one wants to raise taxes so they judge but before you judge this could be your Mom, Dad,Son, Daughter, Brother, Or Sister.
Our Judges are not perfect they have a good heart and do the best they can with little resorces. I am sure they would put them in a program but they are all full and are not geared up for mental illness
- 3.
- The Police, City Prosecutors, and the Judges are in place to protect society. The police say that they don't want us (society) to take the law into our own hands. So these criminals get to rob people (society) of their possessions and commit any number of other crimes and what do they end up getting? A TIME OUT!!! They say (the city) the don't have room and they can't afford to keep them in jail, but if one of them was to break into someone's house and was shot by the owner because the owner felt threatened you can bet they (the city) woould find room for them.

- would it be all possible for the city of sarasota to organize work detail groups for cleaning up the streets to work off their fines. if nothing is done and they know they can beat the system it will go on forever.

appleton living, venice, calif. minarc santa monica, calif.
Filling a long, narrow wing, this kitchen uses its low center of gravity to maximize openness and natural light. Two 16-foot-long islands—one topped with ceramic tile, the other wrapped in a stone composite—make up the room's working surfaces, leaving above-counter sight lines open through the building. A folded steel staircase nearly disappears in profile against a bank of windows at the north wall. To the south, a wall of sliding glass doors opens the room onto a sheltered poolside veranda. The jury praised the kitchen's function as a "circulation hinge space." Said one judge, "It's the living space and center of the house."

Archived:How to develop a Geo-scheduler application - Part 1
Aquivado: Este artigo foi arquivado, pois o conteúdo não é mais considerado relevante para se criar soluções comerciais atuais. Se você achar que este artigo ainda é importante, inclua o template {{ForArchiveReview|escreva a sua justificativa}}.
All PySymbian articles have been archived. PySymbian is no longer maintained by Nokia and is not guaranteed to work on more recent Symbian devices. It is not possible to submit apps to Nokia Store.
Contents |
Do you want to develop location-based applications?
This article is the first in a series approaching all the basics for developing a location-based application for mobile devices. The application can be defined as a Geo-Scheduler or a Location scheduler. The simplest rapid mobile application development tool, PySymbian, is used to develop the application.
The following modules are used when developing this application:
- appuifw module
- audio module
- e32 module
- time module
- os module
- location module
The extensions listed above can be downloaded from the Archived:PySymbian C++ Extensions.
Development tools
1) A text editor
(Preferred editor: Python's IDLE - Integrated DeveLopment Environment)
2) PySymbian
(Preferred version: latest release 1.4.4)
3) PySymbian script shell
(Preferred version: Latest release 1.4.4)
4) Extensions listed above which are not bundled with PySymbian
The PySymbian tools can be downloaded from Sourceforge resources.
Basic approach
In this application, localization is done using the network information. The network information can be provided using the location module, cellid. If you are not familiar with retrieving the cellid using Pys60, using the appswitch module, or using the envy module, read the following articles before you proceed.

Methods and functions
The following methods or functions are used:
File functions
1) save_location: Save location information into file
2) load_location: Read location information into variables
3) save_reminder: Save reminder information into a file
4) load_reminder: Read reminder information into variables
5) dictionary_copy: Dictionary copy
6) location_list: Return the location names
Feature functions
1) add_location: Add a new location
2) edit_location: Edit a location
3) add_reminder: Add a new reminder
4) edit_reminder: Editing screen function
5) edit_reminder_bylocation: Edit reminder by location function
6) edit_reminder_byreminder: Edit reminder by reminder function
Application operations
1) ms_handler: MS option handler
2) main: Start program
3) tracker: Main tracker function
4) background_handler: Background handler options
Part 1
This article - Part 1 - discusses the File functions in detail.
This function adds the location information to the database file. A file handler named file_handler is created to handle file operations. A .dat file specified by the variable file_handler_location is accessed here. In this example, the location.dat file is in C:, and it is assigned to the file_handler_location.
Note: location.dat contains locations added by the save_location() function.
file_handler_location = "c:\\location.dat"
The geo and cellids are populated before running the file functions to NULL.
Note: The geo and cellids must be cleared by using the clear() function so that they do not contain any previously used values.
The definition for the save_location() function is as follows:
def save_location():
file_handler = file(file_handler_location, "w")
temporary = dictionary_copy(cellids)
for cell, loc in temporary.items():
file_handler.write(str(cell) + ':' + str(loc) + '\n')
cellids[cell] = loc
geo[loc] = cell
The function dictionary_copy(cellids) is defined here.
This function is responsible for loading the locations into variables. Here the value of the cellid is stored into variables.
The same file_handler and the file_handler_location are used to access the location.dat this time to read the location values.
file_handler = file(file_handler_location, "r")
Using iterations, location.dat is read for locations/values of cellid. The values are loaded to variable geo[loc].
geo and cellids variables are populated before calling the load function.
cellids = {}
geo = {}
The definition for the load_location() function is as follows:
def load_location():
file_handler = file(file_handler_location, "r")
for line in file_handler:
cell, loc = line.split(":")
cell = cell.strip()
loc = loc.strip()
cellids[cell] = loc
geo[loc] = cell
The save_reminder() function adds a new reminder to the file.
The file_handler_reminder is referenced in the .dat file used to record reminders.
In the following example, the reminder.dat file is in C:, and it is assigned to the variable file_handler_reminder.
file_handler_reminder = "c:\\reminder.dat"
dictionary_copy(items) is defined here. It returns the value of the temporary variable which was initialized as NULL in the scope of the dictionary_copy(dictionary) function.
The reminder string and the value of the cell are written to the file reminder.dat.
The definition for the save_reminder() function is as follows:
def save_reminder():
file_handler = file(file_handler_reminder, "w")
temporary = dictionary_copy(rems)
for i, value in enumerate(temporary.values()):
file_handler.write(str(i) + ':' + str(value['cell']) + ':' + str(value['date']) + ':' + value['desc'] + '\n')
rems[str(i)] = {'cell':value['cell'], 'date':value['date'], 'desc':value['desc']}
This function reads the reminders in the file_handler_reminder, that is, from the reminder.dat file.
file_handler is used to open the reminder.dat to read values.
The values of the </tt>reminder.dat (description) are loaded into the variable <tt>rems (reminders).
rems[id] = {'cell':cell, 'date':str(date), 'desc':desc}
Finally, the definition for load_reminder() is as follows:
def load_reminder():
temporary = {}
file_handler = file(file_handler_reminder, "r")
for line in file_handler:
id, cell, date, desc = line.split(":")
id = id.strip()
cell = cell.strip()
date = date.strip()
desc = desc.strip()
rems[id] = {'cell':cell, 'date':str(date), 'desc':desc}
In save_location and save_reminder, the function returns the value of the temporary variable.
A parameter must be passed to the dictionary function.
For example, in the ave_location() function it is used as follows:
temporary = dictionary_copy(cellids)
The definition of dictionary_copy() is:
def dictionary_copy(dictionary):
return dict(dictionary)
location_list(): Return the location names
There is no need to pass a parameter to this function. However, the variable cellids can always be passed for its global. However, the preferred way is to have it without the parameters.
In the same way as the function dictionary_copy(dictionary), this also returns the temporary variable, but from the items of the cellids variable.
The definition for the location_list() function is:
def location_list():
return [unicode(loc) for loc in cellids.values()]
That finishes the file functions (Part 1) for the Geo-scheduler.
These functions are called when the user selects an action from a custom menu.
These screenshots demonstrate the menu and how these functions are be used. The screenshots are relevant only to Part 1.

A fountain of water stands up in the air only 100 feet away and we can make out the size of the about 50 feet long animal in the water, as it glides slowly forward for a while.
Then the captain shouts "diving!" and the whale arches his back, lifts his big fluke (his tail) and disappears again into the deep accompanied by the sounds of ecstatic children, clicking cameras and an applauding international audience.
Whales spark emotional reactions in just about everyone. More than any animal alive, they are used as a metaphor for our planet's fragile ecological balance.
Louise Thompson from England is totally in love with the big creatures. In fact, they are the main reason for her holidaying in Norway.
– I can't explain it, there's something magical about whales. Ever since seeing a documentary about whales on TV as a child, I've dreamt of seeing whales in their natural element. This safari has been a fantastic experience.
The sperm whales hold the world record among the earth's mammals in diving. They can dive down as deep as more than one mile, so it is unlikely you will be seeing the same whale twice on the same trip.
However, chances seeing at least two other whales are pretty good, as the safaris are arranged in an areas known as the whales' lavish food chambers. Here thousands of whales come to feed on squid and fish.
The most common whale to spot during the summer season is the sperm whale, but if you are lucky you may also see pilot whales, minke whales, humpbacks, dolphins and killer whales. You will also enjoy the magnificent scenery, lots of fresh sea air, and natural surroundings guaranteed to make a lasting impression.
Companies offering whale safaris:
Where:Stø and Andenes in Vesterålen (in the county of Nordland)
When:From mid-May to mid-September
Whalesafari Ltd.: From NOK 890 for adults and NOK 570 for children. Winter season, NOK 990 for adults, NOK 690 for children.Sea Safari Andenes: From NOK 995 for adults and NOK 800 for children.
All of these companies have a whale guarantee - if you are unlucky and do not get to see whales on your first trip, you are eligible for a new trip free of charge or a refund. Please note that this may not apply or be limited for the winter season, depending on company policy.
