Ladies I'm reading some of the posts you have on here and it takes me back (not in such a good way) to all the arguments I had with DH about our homebirth. I'm so proud of the strength that you show, taking charge of your births, becoming empowered, and owning what so many women are robbed of. If any of you *ever* need someone to talk to, someone to have your partner talk to, or someone to ask questions and help you prepare, please PM me. We can set up a time to talk via the phone or instant messenger and if I don't have answers for you I will gladly help you find them. I had some fantastic support when I was getting ready for my homebirth and I wish the same to all of you.

The amazing fundraising of the Selby Hands of Hope was marked by the charity's fourth anniversary ball on Saturday and a charity cricket match.
Founder of the charity Wendy Singh said: "It was fantastic. I want to thank everyone, not just members of the committee, but volunteers and members of the public. I want to say thank you to everybody who us whether they are a business or an individual."
The ball at the town's cricket club played host to 230 guests, who enjoyed fine dining and dancing to the band Pure Silk.
Wendy revealed that Hands of Hope raised £43,950 over the past year and has raised a total of £141,399 since its inception.
She added: " We have never missed a target yet and next year we have set it at £60,000. Let's see what happens."
A charity cricket match, which pitted professional players against Selby area cricketers has raised hundreds of pounds for Selby Hands of Hope. The match featuring the " nforcers" and the Drax Power Players attracted a number of spectators to Selby Cricket Club on Sandhill Lane.
Selby Hands of Hope charity cricket organiser Richard Singh said: "This is a very important event for the charity because it gets its name known outside the Selby area. We're delighted that All Roudner Sport Management nforcers, led by Richard Pyrah of Yorkshire CCC were able to give their support.
I think they were impressed by the work Selby Hands of Hope has been doing and wanted to give us a helping hand themselves. It was a great occasion for Selby and we hope we can have many more like this."
The Twenty/20 match saw specators running for cover as sixes rained down. The ARSM nforcers team included ex-England international, former Durham and now Yorkshire fast bowler Liam Plunkett.
Yorkshire player and managing director of All Roudner Sport Management Richard Pyrah, said: "The nforcers only play a handful of games each summer but when I heard about Selby Hands of Hope, we knew we had to play this match.
"They are a marvellous local charity and we are privileged to be here to help out.
"Every one of the lads supports what they do. It's also good for us to go around the county and meet the people who support us on the cricket field."
The Drax Power Players were made up of local cricketers from a variety of different clubs including Carlton Towers, Selby, Burn, Drax and Hemingbrough.

Furman Sound, the most widely recognized and trusted name in AC power conditioning, today announced that its full line of power conditioning products are now available in D-Tools system integration and design software.
PETALUMA, Calif. - April 19, 2006 - Furman Sound, the most widely recognized and trusted name in AC power conditioning, today announced that its full line of power conditioning products are now available in D -Tools system integration and design software. The partnership with D -Tools provides A/V and home theater integrators and installers with easy access to all Furman product information - making it a simple process for installers to specify Furman products for their residential and commercial system integration projects.
"D -Tools really simplifies the whole process of putting together complex projects and ensuring that the right products are specified," said Dave Keller, executive vice president of sales and marketing for Furman Sound. "With D -Tools software our installers have instant access to all the data for each of our products, including dimensionally accurate shapes in Visio format at the critical design phase, where it matters the most. D -Tools System Integrator is the most widely used system design software, and will make it even easier for installers to recommend our products to their clients."
"We are pleased to have Furman Sound's high -quality products integrated into our program. Complete, accurate information on Furman's entire product line will be immediately available to our SI 4.5 users directly through our software," said Adam Stone, president and CEO of D -Tools. "The MVP program was designed to help facilitate effective communication between manufacturers and the system integration community, and we're honored to name Furman Sound as our newest MVP member."
Furman's power conditioning products feature proprietary Series Multi -Stage Protection Plus (SMP+) technology, which combines three filtering and protection circuits: Linear Filtering Technology™ (LiFT) to suppress noise dramatically and consistently across the entire dynamic range; Series Multi -Stage Protection (SMP) to clamp and dissipate damaging transient voltages without sacrificing itself; and Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS) to protect against accidental connections to 208 or 240 VAC.
D -Tools System Integrator 4.5 (SI 4.5) enables systems integrators and custom installation professionals to create detailed projects managed with automated proposals, scheduling, purchase orders, drawings, and additional documents that streamline the integrated installation of audio and video products. By using a single, shared project file, system integrators and custom installers can download free product information from D -Tools' comprehensive database of products and their accessories, giving them the distinct advantage of designing systems using the most current product information, while saving hours of product research time.

JOHNSON CITY, TN (WJHL)- The American Cancer Society is closing its Johnson City location.
"The office will be closing by the end of the calendar year," Greg Broy, Director, Division Communications for the American Cancer Society said.
Broy gave us this statement:
While our physical office space in the Tri-Cities area is changing, the American Cancer Society presence is not. Our program and fundraising staff who have worked in the Tri-Cities area will continue to support our important work in the community.
We continuously evaluate our operational effectiveness to ensure that we are committing sufficient resources to help our staff and volunteers work toward our mission to end cancer.
Ultimately, more efficient use of office space will result in a greater percentage of funds raised going directly to help the most people, end the most suffering, and save more lives from cancer."
He also said one administrative position is being eliminated with the building closure."Six staff members will continue to work in the area, and with our volunteers and partners, to support the important work of the American Cancer Society in the community," Broy said.

Pregnancy Stats:
How far along: 26 weeks & 2 days. I have to admit this pregnancy I don't know the exact week & day at any given time like I could with Aubrey. I have to check my What to Expect app on my phone every few days to remember!
Size of baby: head of lettuce. (lol)
Total weight gain: I've been fluctuating so much lately, it's weird. I'm usually between 119-121, so about 12-13 lbs.
Gender: Girl!
Movement: I don't have that active of a little girl inside me! I only feel her at night, and occasionally during the day. This is exactly how Aubrey was, & for her first month of life she slept all day & was awake all night. Looks like I will be the walking dead come January!
Sleep: Sleep is fine, but boy is it getting hard to flip over in the middle of the night.. this belly is taking over!
What I miss: Not feeling terrible after eating a big meal! I have to eat such small portions at a time now otherwise I feel awful the rest of the day/night. Running out of room in there!
Worst moment of the week: I've had a lot of emotional meltdowns lately! The tiniest little thing will make me cry. So I suppose one of those episodes was the worst moment.
Best moment of the week: Having things start to feel real - we got the crib, dresser, part of the bedding, & the conversion kit for our stroller to become a double in the mail this week. Watching Steve put all these things together makes me realize they are going to be put to use in three short months. I'm getting so excited & antsy to meet this baby girl.

Hello everyone! It's been quite a little while since I've posted on here....
I have a couple reasons for that, one of which I went back to England for 3 weeks to visit with everyone, but before that I took a trip unto Pennsylvania and New York and had some personal things I was trying to think through which had me lets just say not in the right mood for blogging. But since then and I've come back is it bad to say I've kind of forgotten? I was trying to do a job search which was successful fortunately and I've been trying to get on top of some school work but now I am fully ready to get back into the swing of things/blogging son you should be seeing a lot more of me.
This was just a super quick updates post....but as this was a short paragraph about what's been going on with me I thought I would include a tiny, tiny haul from Forever21, meaning literally two things but I thought I would include them just to make this post a bit longer and to show you what I got......
First is this 'sweater', I love this because of the stripes and it's actually surprisingly soft. It's slightly cropped but not too much that you'd have to wear high waisted things, I think you can away with normal waist jeans as it would hit just about there.
|Retailing for: $15.90
Next is this skirt, I bought this on a separate occasion to the top because Forever21 was having 50% some fall pieces, a free shipping day on everything with no minimum and I had a 10% off promo code so in total I literally paid $5.88 which is a really great deal, Especially because this is just a good quality item. So of course it was completely necessary haha.
|Retailing for: $9.80
Thank you so much for reading this post today and I'll see you soon!! Have a great day,

Why I'll Never be a Ghost Producer—It's Killing EDM
By Collin McLoughlin
This article originally appeared on Cuepoint
Ghost production is one of the most hotly debated subjects in electronic music. People who support ghost producing argue that the long-term value of a superstar is more important than the music the star performs. Detractors argue that ghost producing ruins the spirit of music, tricking listeners into thinking their favorite artists are fully responsible for the music they release. Like many things in music and life, however, the situation is much more grey than it is black and white.
The term "ghost producing" refers to a scenario where an established artist outsources the production of a song to another creator and essentially buys the rights of that creator's work to release it as an original. The process normally goes like this: large artist A buys a song from up-and-coming artist B for cash; then artist A releases the song as his/her new single. The fans assume artist A actually made the song he/she released.
I'm going to come right out and say it: ghost producing is killing EDM.
It's a widespread practice that's hurting producers, writers, artists, and fans. I am writing this to urge newer musicians to realize that they do not need to resort to ghost production to have a successful career as a producer or DJ, and that ghost production oftentimes can hurt more than it can help...

Or at least a planet.
Northeast sophomore Sturgis Baxter of Corinth has been selected for a unique experience with NASA through their National Aerospace Community College Scholars Program.
As part of the program, Baxter will attend a four-day workshop at Stennis Space Center near Hancock County where he will be working closely with NASA employees and other community college majors from various states on several team projects.
"I imagine this experience can only serve to inspire me, motivate me to study harder, and become a part of the solution for tomorrow's problems," Baxter said.
For acceptance into the program, Baxter first had to submit an application along with a short essay of why he desired to enter the program, provide confirmation of academic and professional references, and complete an online course after his acceptance into the program.
In a 300-word essay required on the application, Baxter wrote about his desire to use what he's learned at Northeast and plans to later learn at a four-year university to develop, explore, and develop new venues of computing technology and how it relates to NASA's mission of reaching Mars by 2033.
During the summer, Baxter had to submit a six-to-seven page research paper answering three-of-five questions for a final project due at the end of an online course portion required by the NCAS program.
"On that essay, I wrote about the following topics: anti-matter propulsion systems for future spacecraft, how I would personally conduct a long-term mission to Mars," Baxter said, "and ways that antimatter could be produced on a larger scale in space using conceptualized ideas I personally developed while writing the research paper."
Baxter initially discovered the program from Northeast division head of math and sciences Michelle Baragona, who gave him the information he needed to apply to the program. Mathematics instructor Melanie Walker encouraged him to apply.
Baxter found out he had been hand selected for an additional on-site experience at Stennis Space Center this past June while working at a summer camp in Connecticut teaching robotics and basic programming.
"I hope to learn a lot more about prospective engine designs for future spacecraft, what new technologies astronauts are using in space, and how scientists and researchers at NASA plan to develop systems for innovative propulsion resources like antimatter, hydrogen, or Solar Electric," Baxter said.
Baxter is already looking forward to his four-day workshop in south Mississippi and being able to attend such a prestigious program in his home state.
"I'm so excited to be a Mississippi resident and have the opportunity to work together with other STEM majors throughout the United States while still being so close to home," Baxter said. "Hopefully this will allow for me to have a bigger opportunity to come back and share what I've learned while I was there with kids in the local community and other students at Northeast."
Baxter also sees a connection between his educational career at Northeast and what he will be learning during his four days at Stennis.
"The relationships I've developed at Northeast with both faculty and other students have impacted my life the most," Baxter said. "At Northeast, instructors care about you and are filled with a passion for seeing students succeed. Also, Northeast's incorporation of technology in the classroom has propelled me forward in my ability to learn, study, and has provided a sound foundation for me to continue my education at university level."
However, being a sophomore, the student knows his time at Northeast is drawing near. But he has a plan for that as well.
"I have plans to attend either Mississippi State University or the University of Alabama to pursue a baccalaureate degree in Computer Science," Baxter said. "After that, it is my hope I can gain acceptance to the University of Stanford, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology or Rice University to continue my exploration of the sciences and complete my graduate studies with a Masters of Computer Science coupled with an MBA.
A Ph.D. is also on Baxter's bucket. "We will see how things move along," he said.
Baxter's exploration of the world around him began at an early age by him asking questions about everyday things.
"I've always been the person who enjoyed asking questions and understanding how things worked," said Baxter. "My mom will tell you that I was always that kid who enjoyed pushing buttons and testing boundaries to their breaking point. I'm sure she tired of me continually asking her, 'Why?'"
However, Baxter says this inquisitive nature is not a bad one to have.
"As long as it's directed toward something productive," Baxter pointed out. "I plan to use that trait to break the boundaries of today's limitations and, alongside numerous colleagues and other students, create a way for people to live in a reality where going to Mars will be like catching a plane from the United States to China. There's a whole universe out there to explore and I'm determined to find what's out there."

Lucknow/New Delhi, Nov. 10: The CBI today arrested the second of the two suspected killers of Madhumita Shukla, a day after her domestic help identified the other.
Prakash Chander Pandey of Gorakhpur was produced before a CBI court here and sent to judicial custody for 14 days. Bureau officials said domestic help Desraj would be taken to Barabanki jail for Pandeys identification parade tomorrow.
Pandey, CBI sources said, was arrested after sustained interrogation of Rohit Chaturvedi and Santosh Kumar Rai following their arrest on November 6. With a number of criminal cases pending against him, Pandey was on the run ever since the CBI began investigating the murder.
Desraj yesterday identified Rai as Satya Prakash, one of the two men who had visited Madhumita at her Paper Mill Colony flat in Lucknow on May 9 before she was found murdered, at Barabanki jail.
Pandey, sources said, has informally accepted that he fired once at Madhumita from a .38 country revolver, killing her on the spot.
The CBI had found two bullets, one from Madhumitas body and another live one in her bedroom, the scene of the crime. The bureau is now trying to find out if the live bullet came from Pandeys revolver or if Rai, too, was armed.
Now that the alleged killers are in the net, the CBI is looking for Madhumani, former minister Amarmani Tripathis wife, who is said to be on the run.
The arrested duo, bureau sources claimed, has confirmed that Chaturvedi, who is Tripathis cousin, paid them for the job at the instance of Madhumani.
We will be ready to arrest Madhumani once we have interrogated both Rai and Pandey and recovered the murder weapon from them, a CBI official said.
A Lucknow court had earlier directed the bureau to arrest Madhumani only after obtaining concrete evidence of her involvement.
The CBI, which is not averse to bringing the accused to Delhi for further interrogation but is yet to decide, plans to take both Rai and Pandey into its custody to tie up the case once Pandeys identification is over.
CBI director P.C. Sharma, due to retire early next month, said he is very happy we have managed to nab the killer in this case, especially since several high-profile persons were involved in it. It was a clueless case and we had to face all sorts of challenges before we nabbed the killer.
The CBI court today allowed Tripathi, lodged in Lucknow jail, to attend the Assembly sessions, that began today, provided he is taken there every morning and brought back after the days business and also makes himself available for questioning when required. The CBI counsels objection that he might influence witnesses was rejected.
Bureau officials, unhappy at the state agencies attitude toward the case, have written to their headquarters. Tripathis attempt to seek services of some officials to tamper with the foetus samples and the alleged attempts of the state government to restrict (the) CBI team from probing this aspect, finally prompted us to draw the attention of our seniors, a CBI official said.

A few years ago I started knitting socks with knitting instructions. I knit my first pair for my mother, who had trouble keeping her feet warm. It was a challenge to find socks that fit her. The legs usually were too tight, even though her legs were slender. So, I started with a simple pattern, following its instructions. They were top down socks, and I carefully tried them on her as I knit to be sure they would fit. They did. I made her three pair, including a lace pair. The ones that fit best were the ribbed legs, and 1×1 ribbing remains my favorite today. When I knit other patterns,... (Read More ...)
Wondering what is an easy loose cast off or bind off? Most beginners are taught a simple cast off, that often is not loose enough for sweater necks and tops of toe up socks. It's simple, but not helpful when you need a more elastic one. This became a health concern for me when knitting socks for my mother. While her legs were thin, her feet and lower legs would swell after sitting up a while. And knitting socks with stretch that would stay up became my challenge. I ended up knitting a ribbed sock, and using a loose cast off. I searched online and found one that worked. Since then,... (Read More ...)

March is National Craft Month. And Joann Fabrics is celebrating all month long. As I wrote recently, I'm now a knitting and quilting instructor at my local Joann Fabrics and Crafts store. It's fun meeting and teaching other crafters. And of course making the items for the classes is fun. I wanted to make some of the projects, both to show some of the prospective students and have a better idea of what they need to learn in class to complete the project successfully. And knitting along to show the next step is also fun, and helpful for the students. The scarf I just finished... (Read More ...)
Barbara wants to know how does she find the right pattern row after ripping out a lot? She's feeling frustrated with following a chart. Great question! And Barbara, congratulations on stretching yourself to try what sounds like a complex knitting chart! Been there, done that! When starting to knit lace or any pattern with a knitting chart, it's easy to get lost. Especially when knitting with interruptions or to relieve stress. Some charts have over 20 rows of knitting in the pattern repeat. Yikes! Is it any wonder knitters get frustrated? Many lace knitting instructions suggest... (Read More ...)
I have finished my first sock of 2012! And what I have decided is I'm working on my own version of a generic sock. Right now it's knit cuff down, because the arch shape seems to work best that way. The arch shape is based on Elizabeth Zimmermann and Meg Swansen's "Arch-Shaped Stockings" pattern, available from Schoolhouse Press. My current interest in socks started while caring for my mother. In her later years, it was often hard to keep her warm. And her feet in particular would get cold. The socks available in the stores were seldom what she wanted, so I decided... (Read More ...)
Recently I finished a pair of socks. They are based on a pattern designed by Elizabeth Zimmermann and Meg Swansen. The pattern is called Arch-Shaped Stockings. And they are. The socks have an arch shape, and snugly fit the sole of your foot. I have a high arch. And despite what the so-called experts say about knitting socks, just adding extra length to the arch is not nearly as comfortable as the curved arch in these socks. So the socks I knit from this pattern are among my favorites. I like a ribbed sock, because it hugs my leg and foot better. And yes, you can alter patterns for... (Read More ...)
This week I'm knitting a Christmas stocking and pattern. Christmas stockings are interesting. Basically they follow sock patterns and are often knit with larger needles and thicker yarn. It can be plain or fancy. This stocking is a top down pattern, so the toe has symmetrical decreases. Every other row is a decrease row. And each decrease row has four decreases. Two are left slanted and two right slanted. And because the yarn is heavier than sock yarn, I decided to add the decreases to my How To Knit Videos series. To see the left slanted decrease video, just leave a comment... (Read More ...)
The latest video in my How To Knit Videos is on using single crochet with knitted squares. And there's an interesting story behind it. You see, I made an afghan from a kit a few years ago. It is made of individual squares that are joined together into the whole afghan. I knit it while caregiving. The squares are a great way of knitting a large project without hauling the whole thing around. I think it's now my favorite way to knit an afghan or blanket. Although I can see making strips another option. Yes, I customized the knitting instructions. The original knitting instructions... (Read More ...)

Dearest Minette,
Life is different, very different. During grade 12, the naive me sat there and thought I had the world figured out already. Flash forward into my fourth, and final year of university, I don't know anything anymore. The more I learn, the less I know. Where am I taking myself in this world is still a vague mystery. I do know a few certainties though. Get a job you love, make friends, and be happy with yourself. Thankfully I'm on track with those certainties.
A little over 10 months ago my mother passed away due to cancer. I did not know of her illness till I heard the life-shattering news. Of course by then, it was too late. All the words I should've and could've said were too late to tell. That entire academic year was hard to get through. Come summer time though, and I've gotten back on track. Back to getting A's and back to enjoying myself.
Life is still vague right now, but that's the beauty of it. No commitments and no plans. I'm still a naive 20 year old, but now I understand to not try to figure life out, but rather, just live it, enjoy it, and prosper through it. I've come a long way from the time when we'd read Animal Farm in your classroom. Now, my bookshelf is stocked with the works of Kant, Schopenhauer, and more. I'm well read, and very well informed.
All this, I attribute to you and my father. To you, for if you haven't been my mentor and teacher, if you weren't there to push me to read more and expand my vocabulary, to tell me about the different aspects of life, and to broaden my eyes to the outside world, then I would not be the man I am today.
For that, I am eternally in debt to you.
Your student,
Mohamed Farazi

17-year-old Ruby Thomas, newly responsible for her two young nieces after a devastating tragedy, is determined to keep her family safe in the vast, swirling world of 1920s New York City. She's got street smarts, boundless determination, and one unusual skill: the ability to throw a ball as hard as the greatest pitchers in a baseball-mad city.
From Coney Island sideshows to the brand-new Yankee Stadium, Diamond Ruby chronicles the extraordinary life and times of a girl who rises from utter poverty to the kind of renown only the Roaring Twenties can bestow. But her fame comes with a price, and Ruby must escape a deadly web of conspiracy and threats from Prohibition rumrunners, the Ku Klux Klan, and the gangster underworld.
"Based on the true story of a lady pitcher who struck out Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig in exhibition play, this debut novel from nonfiction author Wallace…is a diverting sports tale…Sharply sketched, convincing historical characters like Ruth and Dempsey add to the considerable appeal of Wallace's gritty but fun period baseball tale." ()Publishers Weekly)
"Ruby is a keeper…there are echoes of Betty Smith's A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, but this story holds its own, allowing Diamond Ruby her place as a literary gem." (Library Journal)
"Diamond Ruby is a very special book. The comparisons to A Tree Grows in Brooklyn are not made lightly: Joseph Wallace deserves that accolade and many more. Ruby is a wonderful, memorable character and Wallace's prose is a perfect match for her." (Laura Lippman, New York Times bestselling author of Life Sentences)

the applications. One cannot deny the fact that when you upgrade from Windows 7 or 8 to
Windows 10, it is a fast process as compared to the total wipe and after that dealing with the files
and the installing applications. Upgrading to the Windows 10 from the earlier versions can be an
easy but it is important to do the things before starting the upgrade. It is not just going for the
installer but for the smooth working of the process, important tips have to be followed. Technical
help for Windows 10 upgradeshall also provide useful assistance if asked.
Windows activated copy
It is important for you to activate the present version of Windows. If you want to check as to
whether the copy of Windows 8 is activated or not, have to tap the Windows key +W and this is
solely for the pulling of the setting search. For seeing whether the Windows is activated or not,

Mumps is a viral infection that primarily affects the parotid glands — one of three pairs of saliva-producing (salivary) glands, situated below and in front of your ears. If you or your child contracts mumps, it can cause swelling in one or both parotid glands.
Mumps was common in the United States until mumps vaccination became routine. Since then, the number of cases has dropped dramatically, so your odds of getting mumps are low. Complications of mumps, such as hearing loss, are potentially serious, but rare.
There's no specific treatment for mumps. Mumps outbreaks still occur in the United States, and mumps is still common in many parts of the world, so getting a vaccination to prevent mumps remains important.
Some people infected with the mumps virus have either no signs or symptoms or very mild ones. When signs and symptoms do develop, they usually appear about two to three weeks after exposure to the virus and may include:
The primary — and best known — sign of mumps is swollen salivary glands that cause the cheeks to puff out. In fact, the term "mumps" is an old expression for lumps or bumps within the cheeks.
If you suspect that you or your child has mumps, see your doctor. Let your doctor's office know before you go in that you suspect mumps so that you won't have to wait so long in the waiting room, possibly infecting others. Mumps has become an uncommon illness, so it's possible that the signs and symptoms are caused by another condition. Swollen salivary glands and a fever could be an indication of inflamed tonsils (tonsillitis) or a blocked salivary gland.
Other viruses can infect the parotid glands, causing a mumps-like illness.
The cause of mumps is the mumps virus, which spreads easily from person to person through infected saliva. If you're not immune, you can contract mumps by breathing in saliva droplets of an infected person who has just sneezed or coughed. You can also contract mumps from sharing utensils or cups with someone who has mumps.
Complications of mumps are potentially serious, but rare.
Most mumps complications involve inflammation and swelling in some part of the body, such as:
Call your family doctor if you or your child has signs and symptoms common to mumps. Here's some information to help you get ready for your appointment.
Questions to ask your doctor about mumps include:
Don't hesitate to ask any other questions you have about your or your child's condition.
Your doctor is likely to ask you a number of questions, including:
While you wait for your appointment, you may be able to ease symptoms with cold compresses and over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) and acetaminophen (Tylenol, others). However, don't give aspirin to a child who has a viral illness because aspirin has been associated with the development of Reye's syndrome, which can be serious.
Rest as much as possible, and avoid contact with others until you've seen the doctor. Mumps is highly contagious within about the first week after symptoms first appear.
If your doctor suspects that you or your child has mumps, a virus culture or a blood test may be needed. Your immune system normally makes antibodies to help you fight an infection. So if you have mumps, the blood test can detect the antibodies in your system that are fighting the mumps virus.
Because mumps is caused by a virus, antibiotics aren't effective. Fortunately, most children and adults recover from an uncomplicated case of mumps within about two weeks.
As a general rule, you're no longer considered contagious and may safely return to work or school one week after a diagnosis of mumps.
In general, you're considered immune to mumps if you've previously had the infection or if you've been immunized against mumps.
The mumps vaccine is usually given as a combined measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) inoculation, which contains the safest and most effective form of each vaccine. Two doses of the MMR vaccine are recommended before a child enters school:
In response to a mumps outbreak in the Midwest, college students and health care workers in particular are encouraged to make sure they've had two doses of the MMR vaccine. A single dose doesn't appear to offer sufficient protection during an outbreak. Since the recommendation for a second dose didn't begin until the late 1980s or early 1990s, many young adults may not have received their second dose and should have one now.
You don't need a vaccine if you:
Also, the vaccine isn't recommended for:
If you don't fit the criteria listed above for not getting vaccinated, you should be vaccinated if you:
Consider waiting if:
Check with your doctor before getting vaccinated for mumps if:
You can't get mumps from the MMR vaccine, and most people experience no side effects from the vaccine. A few may experience a mild fever or rash, and some people (mostly adults) have achy joints afterward for a short time. Less than one out of 1 million doses causes a serious allergic reaction.
Although concerns have been raised about a connection between the MMR vaccine and autism, extensive reports from the American Academy of Pediatrics, the Institute of Medicine and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention conclude that there's no scientifically proven link between the MMR vaccine and autism.
If you or your child has mumps, time and rest are the best treatments. There's little your doctor can do to speed recovery. But you can take some steps to ease pain and discomfort and keep others from becoming infected.
Take over-the-counter pain relievers, such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, others) or a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug such as ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) to ease symptoms. Adults may also use aspirin.
Use caution when giving aspirin to children or teenagers. Children and teenagers recovering from flu-like symptoms should never take aspirin. This is because aspirin has been linked to Reye's syndrome, a rare but potentially life-threatening condition, in such children.
If your child has mumps, watch for complications. Call your doctor if your child develops:

Campbell finds value in extending sustainable strategy to supply chains
Campbell Soup Company was practically founded on a waste management strategy, according to the company's vice president of public affairs and corporate responsibility.
That strategy? Condensed soup. By removing water, Campbell cut shipping and storage costs.
Dave Stangis shared this anecdote when talking to sustainableplant.com.
From solar panels to recycling to improvements in farmland drainage - Campbell is writing new sustainable success stories.
In recent years, the company has started to search for savings and efficiencies by looking beyond its walls and into its supply chain.
"If we map out most manufacturers in the Consumer Packaged Goods sector, and map out their impacts and opportunities from a sustainability perspective, there's their own footprint that they have to manage and deal with," says Stangis. "But if you take a look at the entire value chain, the biggest impacts and the biggest opportunities are almost always outside of the four walls of the company that manufactures the product."
Here Stangis talks about Campbell's first supply chain sustainability strategy and its benefits.
On its corporate social responsibility web site, Campbell identifies the supply chain as one of seven key areas with the most opportunity for impact.
Here Stangis explains the potential benefits and ultimate goals of finding the strengths and weaknesses of a supply chain.
Stangis says the food industry is taking on the challenge from consumers to become more transparent about where food comes from and how its prepared.
"Cargill played a key role in that relationship in providing information and being a trusted source of information," says Stangis. "We're starting to see some of the benefits of having that value chain relationship but it's going to play out more and more in the future."

ALBION, Mich. - Uganda's civil war may be a world away, but concern for its suffering children is evident on Albion College's campus. As part of its effort to involve Albion in easing this crisis, Albion College's Bitone Project student group presents a screening of Invisible Children, a documentary about the ongoing civil war in Northern Uganda. The film will be shown Thursday, Oct. 4, at 7 p.m. in Norris Center's Towsley Hall.
Invisible Children exposes the lives of several children caught in the fight between the Ugandan government and the Lord's Resistance Army. It was produced by three Americans and is an extremely interesting, compelling, and fast paced film with an MTV beat. The film seeks to raise awareness and promote healthcare, safety, employment and education for the people of Northern Uganda. For more information, visit http://www.invisiblechildren.com.
Albion College's Bitone Project currently helps support the Bitone Home of Uganda, an orphanage that uses traditional performing arts to help rehabilitate children traumatized by the war. More information about the Bitone Home in Uganda is available at http://www.bitonechildren.org/.
This event is free and open to the public. For more information, contact Bitone Project president Amber Hughson at 248/245-5505 or firstname.lastname@example.com.

About this Costume
- Construction Details:
I love the character of Hinata to DEATH. I really respect her determination, hard-working attitude, and sweet demeanor. So it was no question I had to cosplay her! The idea came up during a visit to Fanime this year, when me and my friend Kristin [Ban] decided we wanted to embark on a duel cosplay. Her favorite character is Neji and mine so happened to be Hinata. It only seemed natural to cosplay them! We also both decided on an all black color scheme for the costumes, to coordinate and simplify the look, which ended up looking real well. This was a fun costume to run around in, while EXTREMELY hot due to it being made of fleece, it is very comfortable and VERY warm during the nights. My all around favorite part was just running around with Kristin and getting to do poses together!

- The Nigeria Security Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Borno state has made a new discovery
- They discovered a new factional sect of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN), popularly known as Shiite
- The group was discovered in Maidugiri, the Borno state capital
A report by the News Agency of Nigeria indicates that a new factional sect of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN), popularly known as Shiite has been discovered in Maidugiri, the Borno state capital.
This was made known by the commandant of the Nigeria Security Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Borno state, Ibrahim Abdullahi.
Abdullahi said men of the command discovered the group in Kwaya Kusar local government through intelligence gathering and surveillance, adding that the group was different from the El-Zakzaky-led group.
READ ALSO: Shiite crisis: Kaduna youths blast Borno elders
His words: "As part of our statutory responsibility in monitoring the activities of religious bodies in the country, we have discovered this strange group.
"When we invited the leader (names withheld), he claimed to be non-violent and that they are against the teachings of Ibrahim El-Zakzaky.
"But we must detest and distance ourselves from all acts of violence and illegal groups in all its manifestations under whatever guise.
"We agree that it is their fundamental right to practice their own religion, but we are not unmindful about factors that gave rise to the calamitous catastrophe which engulfed us in the recent past."
The commandant added that investigations would be sustained and shared with other security agencies to forestall any breach of peace in the country.

Meanwhile, some leaders of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria on Wednesday, December 29, visited the former minister of aviation Femi Fani-Kayode in his Abuja residence.
The Islamic leaders, the minister said, gave him a brief description on happenings in Kaduna state where the members of the group have been killed and some others arrested.

Making the Home Plan Fool-Proof
While making the plans for a house, the builder is supposed to make it in such way that it will meet all the requirements as well as aspirations of his client.Instead of following the ready-made plans stored in the laptop, custom made home building plans will make dream homes of the clients into reality.Using the floorplan design software, the final floor plan can be made after making necessary omissions and commissions in co-ordination with the client.Making the home plan is a time consuming affair and one should go through each and every minute detail so as to avoid confusion and complication during the construction.A fool-proof plan is the basis for a successful home project.Every effort to make a perfect blue print will prove fruitful in the long run.
Although fluctuations of material costs and labour expenses are unavoidable during the course of execution of the project, a perfectly designed home plan can avoid too much of deviations from the budget. Exact requirement of materials must be worked out to avoid wastage and excessive spending.The time of construction of the house should be such that the workers are less busy.This will help to keep labour cost under control. There should not be too many deviations from the original plan after commencement of the construction.Use of environment friendly materials and maximum natural materials will help cost reduction and also will ensure "Green" status for the house. The home plans should never be made for construction of a short-term house. It must be a durable house for which the materials and components should be strong and sturdy.
The materials and fittings selected for the house should ensure a low-maintenance house.This will also facilitate easy up gradation on a later stage, if required.The home plans must ensure minimum time for completion and minimum requirement of wood and other materials.The plan must ensure an energy-efficient house.The home plan must be an endeavor to fulfill the aspirations of the house owner so that at no point of time should it show negative trends.
For the owner of the house, house construction is a long process.He must choose a builder or construction agency having proper license,experience, proven track record and sufficient manpower. On finalization of the plans and budget, the resources are to be mobilized prior to commencement of construction.While making the home building plans, it is all the more important to consider the affordable footage, building codes and Green house norms.

Glass Lewis Clarifies Its Approach to "One-Off" Equity Awards for Executive Officers
In mid-November, Glass Lewis released its final proxy voting policies and methodologies for the upcoming year. While most compensation policies remained largely intact from prior years (see our complete summary of compensation and governance policy changes here), this year's release includes much-needed guidance on Glass Lewis' approach and requirements for reviewing the use of off-cycle equity grants.
