I started working with the Women's Intercultural Center as a volunteer computer instructor. What fun! We were working in English and Spanish. As time went on I saw so many women and members of their family taking English lessons learning to cook with healthy recipes, learn to sew, and register to vote just to name a few of the classes. Women have gone on to paying jobs outside the center and often on to school, : GED or community college. I am so impressed how the Center adds in a positive way to the community of Anthony NM / TX. The picture is me with Sister Camilla, one of the founders of the center.

i volunteered with this organization in it's beginning days. I taught computer software. The women who came were so pleased to have a place to meet other women, study English, and take many other interesting classes. The miricle of this organization is that it was started by a group of Sisters who were able to , over the years, transfer the running of the center to the women who benifited from it. The center has grown into a dynamic organization that meets the many needs of the women and their families in this small, rural, bilinqual community. I am very proud to have been associated with it.
The WinC is a great organization. The center is a one stop shop for any Women's issue one can think of. The center empowers women to fulfill their dreams through educational, political and economic resources. Many of the people that are helped by the center have never had the self esteem to begin their own business. There are numerous successful Alumni.
The dedication and strive for women's education is something I have seen in no other organization. The center assist women in developing action plans on financing and/or using the centers resources for various educational pursuits. For some it may be college for others it may be a specific trade. The summer program which immerges students in the border region is a well known program; which helps highlight the issues on the border.

The center helps develop self reliance in the participants of the program. It is based on a three step approach. The approaches are circular in nature so none is more important than the other, but simply build upon each other. These three approaches are education, economic self sufficiency and consciousness raising for change. In the education aspect the center has partnered with Dona Ana Community College to bring the participants opportunities to study ESL, citizenship and GED programs. The eventual goal is to bring the participant up to the level of being a self sustaining entrepreneur who can make a difference in the community and pass on the opportunities to other needy individuals in the area.
I have been fortunate to work with the wonderful staff and members of the Women's Intercultural Center for the past ten years. During the past decade Andele Tutors, an organization that offers free after school tutoring for under served children, was able to use the safe, warm, and welcoming community room of the Women's Intercultural Center for many tutoring sessions,a s well as award ceremonies and holiday parties. More recently, with the guidance and support of the Women's Intercultural Center , current Executive Director, Mary Carter, we were able to reach out to over 350 families to develop dialogue and interest in establishing a health sciences charter school in the local school district. Mary and her staff work tirelessly and effectively for the local community. The Women's Intercultural Center serves as a vital and important cultural, educational and social asset to the entire southern New Mexico region.
I have been donating money and items to this organizations thrift store for almost 3 years. I truly believe in this organization's work. All it took for me was one visit to see how they were impacting people's lives in not only their community but the communities in Las Cruces and El Paso. This organization truly makes a difference in people's lives and if you don't believe it, all you have to do is stop by and take a look for yourself. I plan on taking part in their new dance classes coming up in the new semester, and on that point it really surprises me the abundance of classes and trainings they offer here. I recommend that everybody should stop by and see the center for themselves.

I have nothing but great things about this center, the way they treat their participants, staff, and volunteers is amazing. Everyone is treated as a key asset to help create a better community and a better world. They look for input from everyone to help make the areas they serve better. The center also keeps me up to date on the issues going on through not only the nation but the world through their facebook and twitter. The people they have maintaining their facebook and twitter accounts is unbelievable it almost seems like they are up and running 24/7 and stay on top of all the issues. Upon the many classes and services they offer it's hard to decide which is my favorite. Although if I had to choose one it would be their Border Awareness Experience (BAE). They host college students from around the nation to learn about immigration and border issues which I believe is very important as much of the nation does not understand how easily immigration and the border affect our nation. Help this center continue it's incredible work.
I have toured the facilities, met with the Director, and spent some time during the holiday season at WIC. The staff and volunteers are big hearted folks with a genuine desire to engage the community in activities that they are working on, specifically empowering women and providing resources in leadership along with their families. I have seen and experienced the greatness that this organization exudes in the community within individuals, families, and women.
This Center does incredible work in helping the community their known for covering all of Southern NM and West TX yet they only have 6 staff members. It's almost unbelievable how much work these people do, but I truly appreciate them for all they have to offer especially when it comes to empowering women. They never stop and that's why I will always support them. When times are tough and the economy started to impact them, they didn't turn away from their participants they were always there to educate and empower the community.

Telemadrid - the TV station awarded the rights to air the match - confirmed that a "powerful signal of unknown origin" had interfered with broadcasting a few minutes into the match at the Nou Camp and the signal was not re-established until moments before the final whistle.
Varying reports in Spain claim that up to 100,000 people in the Plaza de Espana area of Madrid missed out on watching the match which saw Barcelona eliminated from the competition and therefore out of the running to lift the Champions League trophy in their rival's stadium.
Apologising for the disruption, a statement from Telemadrid said they "deeply regret the situation" which saw signal blocked by a "powerful signal of unknown origin" and that they had asked Albertis (the company responsible for the output of signal) to "find the source of the problem and correct it".
For their part, Albertis said: "We've never had a problem of this type - nevermind at this level of intensity. By the end of the match the powerful signal that had interfered had stopped."
When the final whistle was blown at the Nou Camp, hundreds of Real fans flocked to the fountain of Cibeles - a traditional celebration point for Madrid supporters after winning a trophy - to sing anti-Barcelona chants and celebrate their defeat.

I'm done
with death. Its just never ending in my family anymore I dont get it. Everyone thats young or good is either dead or sick. The bad ones are all great! Fine and dandy! I don't get it.
I'm really numb to the loss at the moment but my cousin who just turned 21 was killed tonight on his motorcycle. He was a good kid, didnt deserve this at all. I'm at a loss for words. Just wish I could hold my little boy right now :(
Rest peacefully my sweet cousin
Wojtek Grabowski
May 12, 1990 ~ May 25, 2011
Re: I'm done
So sorry. Seems that the good ones leave too soon.
Re: I'm done
:cry: :dothug: I'm so sorry sweetie.
Re: I'm done
Thanks ladies :( I'm so sad.
E. B. Gormley Funeral - Thats his obit and stuff.
The whole story now that I have it, is so devastating. It was his mom and dads anniversary that day.. he was leaving to go somewhere with his 2 friends who were behind him on their bikes. They were literally no more than 1 minute from his house. He hit a little fall in the road with some rocks and got thrown off the bike, and instead of the bike going forward it followed him sideways. He slammed into a mailbox and some rocks, the bike landed on him and crushed his chest. His mom was driving home and no more than 5 mins after it happened she was going past and saw him on the road... I mean seriously, can you imagine??? That poor sweet mother.
I'm really getting depressed :(
Re: I'm done
*hugs* I'm so sorry that you're having to go through another loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Re: I'm done
:dothug: I wish you didn't have to deal with this right now, we're supposed to be having happy times... I'm around if you need anyone. Just FB me, it's on my phone so I'm pretty much reachable always.
Re: I'm done
Thanks hun I appreciate that.
The funeral today was so hard. His dad did the eulogy, which had me bawling like a baby. Then at the cemetary he was hugging the casket and saying goodbye and love you son, etc., I bawled again. Then afterwards he comes up to me and tells me to make sure that once my son is born I hug him everyday. That just really got to me. I cry just typing it :(
Re: I'm done
Sad to hear about it, cheer up, things may not be that had
Re: I'm done
I truly feel your pain. I have had so much loss in the past 7 months, I am not sure ho I manage to get up each morning! I was looking through posts here and yours caught my attention.... my one constant feeling is I am done, I am jinxed and bad things are falling around me all the time. {{HUGS}}
Re: I'm done
Oh I am so sorry for your loss :( One thing Wojtek's dad keeps telling me is to hug my son everyday, and that I do. Your family is in my prayers. ((((Big Hugs))))
Re: I'm done
Re: I'm done
I am so sorry for your loss. I can relate to you in so many ways. My family as well as dealt with such a huge amount of loss. I also lost one of my good friends on a motorcycle death. He was one of my best friends and at the time his wife was 6 months pregnant and came upon the scene because he had never called her and told her he had made it to work so she went looking for him and came on the scene. I could never imagine. A car had hit him and he got ejected from his bike and died at the scene. The photos of the scene were all over the news which made it worse. I miss him terribly. He was such a great man who had a 1 year old and a 6 month pregnant wife. I never understand why the good people are taken while the bad ones seem to live forever.

Feeding a pet in the United States can sometimes mean indirectly feeding the slave trade in Thailand.
An investigation by The New York Times found many leading pet food brands in the U.S., including Iams, Meow Mix and Fancy Feast, buy seafood for their products from Thai Union Frozen Products, Thailand's largest seafood company.
However, Thai Union owns a cannery, the Songkla Canning Public Company, which gets forage fish from boats that use slave labor. The forage fish, small and cheaply priced, are harvested in the South China Sea, where migrant workers from Cambodia and Myanmar spend years at sea against their will.
Interviews with these fishermen revealed horror stories of sick crew members being dumped overboard and defiant ones being killed, sometimes by having their heads cut off. Many workers are beaten for minor "offenses," such placing a fish in the wrong bucket or not working fast enough. Still others are "sealed for days below deck in a dark, fetid fishing hold," the Times' Ian Urbina wrote.
"Life at sea is cheap," Phil Robertson, deputy director of Human Rights Watch's Asia division, said. "And conditions out there keep getting worse."
Songkla Canning has also been on the radar of the Criminal Investigations division of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, whose 2010 on-site inspections of Songkla's Thailand facilities found unsanitary conditions that produced "adulterated" seafood that is potentially "injurious to health."
"The United States is the biggest customer of Thai fish, and pet food is among the fastest growing exports from Thailand, more than doubling since 2009 and last year totaling more than $190 million," reported the Times.

Discussion in 'Graphic Design & Logo Design Critique:' started by sureewoong, Feb 18, 2013.
Recently, I've design a Manifesto for one of my blog post. Let me know what do you think.
It looks really good. I think in the top right paragraph you may have missed an "A" - There is no such thing as A bad idea?
Thanks for letting me know Tony. I didn't notice that.
Should visual be vision, or design? I do like it though, nice work

DEBENHAMS, the department stores group, has signed the designer Matthew Williamson to produce a diffusion collection for its Designers at Debenhams range.
Mr Williamson, whose celebrity clients include Kate Moss, Helena Christensen and Jade Jagger, was one of the original designers for Marks & Spencer's Autograph designer range. It is understood that the Autograph relationship ended after M&S declined to put the names of designers on Autograph clothing.
For Debenhams, he will design a womenswear collection branded "Butterfly by Matthew Williamson", to be launched in 50 Debenhams stores this autumn. The retailer said the clothes will be at affordable prices, starting at £25.
Mr Williamson said: "Debenhams has a strong track record for developing exclusive designer brands."
Belinda Earl, Debenhams chief executive, said: "The overall portfolio, made up of 26 designers, is expected to be worth £100m in sales this year against £76m last year."

Petition to allow legal recording of YouTube content grows
Ryan Martin / 5 years ago
Nearly 1.1 million people have signed a petition lobbying YouTube to allow third party recording of its videos for personal/private use. The petition (which can be found here) was organised by Philip Matesanz from Hanover, Germany. He worked with the organisation change.org in order to help secure publicity for the petition which he hopes will change the way YouTube works.
The petition is aimed at five particular people/groups:
- General Counsel, Google (Arnd Haller)
- Associate Product Counsel, YouTube LLC(Harris Cohen)
- CEO, YouTube (Salar Kamangar)
- Minister of Consumer Protection (Ilse Aigner)
- European Comission (Neelie Kroes)
Currently the number of signatures on the petition has just surpassed 1,120,000 meaning 380,000 more signatures are required to reach the first target. The petition is written in English, French, German and Turkish.
The rhetoric behind the petition is one of disdain towards Google's actions with regards to YouTube. They strongly dislike the way Google has teamed up with the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) to take action against any service that allows users to record content uploaded to YouTube.
Those sites who are under target from this RIAA-influenced purge include sites like video2mp3 and youtube2mp3 that allow YouTube videos to be recorded into viewable or audible formats.
"In the past people have been able to record TV shows and CDs using home recording equipment," said Matesanz. "Now, Youtube wants to block users doing the same from its site. I launched this petition to make the point that changing technology should not affect peoples' rights as a consumer. I have been amazed at the response to my petition but surprised that the company has not responded. I would very much like to sit down with them and discuss this issue."

Enjoyed Anything That Moves (Goodyear), Blood Bones & Butter (Hamilton), Heat (Buford), anything by Bourdain, Steingarten, Ruhlman. Not a huge fan of the historicals - Extra Virginity, Salt, Consider the Fork - but do veer toward the educational/resource (McGee, Flavor Bible).
Restaurant Man, Counter Intelligence, L.A. Son are probably my three 'favorite' reads so anything along any of these lines would be great.

A drastic drop in the price of aluminum in the past several months is costing the Southeastern Firefighters' Burn Foundation in Augusta thousands of dollars.
"It hurts," said Gerald Woods, the president and CEO of the foundation, adding that the aluminum can drop-off sites are "probably one of our larger single items" in donations.
Ultimately, it means there is less money to help burn victims and their families. For as long as aluminum can prices stay low, officials say, the public can help either by donating more cans to make up for the price decrease or by giving money.
"If we could grow that (can donations) in volume, it would help us offset the losses," Mr. Woods said. "To be frank with you, the best alternative now would be cash donations. And then if the aluminum price goes up, aluminum would help us."
Lately, Mr. Woods said, the return on aluminum cans has been about 25 cents per pound.
"We were getting somewhere in the 70s at one point a year ago," he said. "It dropped rather dramatically in the fall."
According to Associated Press reports, the price has plummeted along with other scrap metal recyclables as the economy has taken a hit on consumer demand for products made of such materials.
In peak years, the foundation has received as much as $75,000 from can donations. Last year, aluminum collections brought in about $55,000, he said, and this year's expected return is about $45,000.
The funds are used in a myriad of foundation operations, including a 50-bed retreat near Doctors Hospital's Joseph M. Still Burn Center that offers family members of burn victims a place to stay while their relative recovers. The retreat, which is staffed 24 hours, provides at least one meal a day.
"The proceeds from the ACBV (Aluminum Cans for Burn Victims) program support the burn foundation's mission of helping burn patients and their families when disaster strikes with lodging, meals, pressure garments, medications and travel expenses," said Dawn Violette, the foundation's development director. "With the community's support, we can continue that mission."
Mr. Woods said other fundraising sources include boot drives by fire departments, motorcycle rides, golf tournaments and a rodeo in Columbia County.

Gamblers must not be anonymous in the GAA: Oisin McConville
For decades, indulging in alcoholic refreshment has been almost a prerequisite for GAA players.
It is a fact that celebrations following championship triumphs at all levels have tended to be extended — indeed, in many instances these have lasted for the duration of the week following a particular coup.
But given the stark warnings that have been issued in relation to the excess consumption of alcohol, the strict attitude taken by team managers to drinking and the greater desire of players to make the most of what are becoming shorter inter-county careers, intoxicating liquor is not now viewed with the same apprehension, indeed, fear that it tended to inculcate in the past.
Instead, this fear has been replaced by a greater awareness of the evils that accompany an addiction to gambling.
Earlier this month the Gaelic Players Association revealed that this particular scourge is creating "utter devastation" within the ranks of some GAA players.
The Association's declaration — and it should be borne in mind that the GPA speaks for just 2,000 of the overall playing membership of Ireland's biggest sporting body — appears to have struck a chord within every county.
As one who succumbed to gambling on a big scale in the past, I can confirm that it has the potential to wreck a life, cause family upheaval and lead to almost intolerable distress.
The problem, as with all forms of addiction, is how best to combat the evil. Fortunately, with help, I was able to come to terms with my problem and put my life back together again.
There are others like me who have come back from the abyss — players such as Niall McNamee, the gifted Offaly footballer who was afflicted but is now helping others, and Cathal McCarron, the Tyrone defender who had a superb year in his county's colours last year after having seemingly experienced a premature end to his inter-county career.
I hold up McNamee and McCarron as shining lights to others seeking inspiration in their bid to combat gambling demons at the present time. My admiration for them is based on the strength of character that they have shown and their openness in admitting where they strayed off the straight and narrow.
None of us are qualified to sit in judgment of others — let him who is without sin cast the first stone comes to mind here — and the fact that players who have found themselves in a bad place but recovered to take control of their lives again should be an inspiration to the rest of us.
It is, of course, all too easy to fall through the gambling trap-door. All that is required is a mobile telephone, an accommodating bookmaker and some spare time — a lethal combination as it has turned out in some instances.
A recent survey has revealed that players who participate in team sports are three times more likely to become gambling addicts.
And it does not matter at what level they participate or indeed in what code they are involved.
It is well-known that several high-profile former and present Premier League players have been bitten sharply by the gambling bug and while some like Arsenal duo Tony Adams and Paul Merson have managed to turn their lives round again, others have not been so fortunate.
The demands associated with being a member of an inter-county squad can result in players turning to gambling as an outlet from the intensity to which they are subjected on an ongoing basis while players who are undertaking examinations are under even more pressure.
There is an onus on us all to look out for signs of this and to provide practical and moral help where possible. Self-help, though, should be the first step wherever possible — after all, this can be the real trigger when it comes to rediscovering a lost way of life.

How to Track Call Only Ads Conversions?
How to Track Call Only Ads Conversions?
In this presentation, we are going to share why outcome measuring is complex for call only ads campaign.
You might think that call only campaign is very affordable but in reality call only campaign is not that affordable because call only campaign costs when clicked but not called!
Here is a screenshot of my conversation with a Google representative about this:
People Like to Know About Your Business First
There may be few reasons why people just tap on the ad and close it before making the phone call?
They might be thinking, this action will bring them to your website instead of making a call!
They would like to know your business first. They like to see what you are offering.
Hanging up before you or your representative receive the call!
They click due to interest!
How to Track Call Only Campaigns Conversions
Google makes it confusing to track call only ads conversions. If you check this article, especially the "Monitor performance" section, you will have a double thought for sure! Check the statement under "Look at the performance of your call-only campaigns".
How to Track Call Only Campaigns Conversions
What does it mean? Does it mean, our client got 21 phone calls from Call Only ads campaign? Check the following image:
How to Track Call Only Campaigns Conversions
Of course not! Our client got only 1 valid phone call out of 21 clicks. Under "phone calls" column, you can see there are 3 calls.
How to Track Call Only Campaigns Conversions
1 call is missed, 1 call lasted for 12 seconds (we set 15 seconds to count a successful conversion when we set up Phone call conversion for this campaign. Therefore, 12 seconds call can't appear under "conversions" column) and 1 call is the actual conversion as it lasted for more than 15 seconds (57) .
We Asked Google to Change that Statement
That statement made usconfused. Hopefully, Google will remove or correct that statement pretty soon!

Occupational Postexposure Prophylaxis
Publish date: April 2014
Health care personnel (HCP) and other individuals working in medical, public safety, sanitation, and laboratory settings are at risk of occupational exposure to HIV. Although avoiding exposure to HIV is the only reliable way of preventing HIV infection, postexposure prophylaxis (PEP), can reduce the risk of HIV infection in exposed HCP. PEP is defined as antiretroviral (ARV) therapy that is initiated soon after exposure to HIV with the intention of preventing HIV infection.
This chapter examines the general issues involved with PEP in occupational settings. The information is based on 2013 U.S. Public Health Service (USPHS) guidelines for occupational PEP (see "References," below). For information on PEP for nonoccupational HIV exposures (such as sexual exposure), see chapter Nonoccupational Postexposure Prophylaxis. Note that other bloodborne pathogens, particularly hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV), also may be transmitted through occupational exposure; it is important to consider these potential infections when assessing occupational exposures. For information on the management of occupational exposures to HBV and HCV, refer to the 2001 USPHS PEP guidelines (see "References," below). In addition, the National Clinicians' Post-Exposure Prophylaxis Hotline (PEPline) is available for telephone consultation at 888-HIV-4911 (888-448-4911).
The risk of HIV infection after exposure depends on several factors that are related to the exposure itself and to the source patient (see below). To make sound PEP recommendations, the clinician must assess the risk of HIV infection from the particular exposure. After this, the clinician and the exposed worker must discuss the possible benefit of PEP (given the risk of HIV transmission from the injury) in relation to the willingness of the exposed worker to adhere to a 28-day course of ARV medicines, the potential toxicity of the regimen, and drug interactions. HCP who are pregnant at the time of their exposure must weigh the risk of fetal exposure to HIV against the potential teratogenic and other risks of the ARV drugs (it should be noted that pregnancy is not a contraindication to PEP, and that a number of ARVs are recommended for use during pregnancy, based on safety and efficacy data) (see chapter Reducing Maternal-Infant HIV Transmission).
The efficacy of PEP is related to the specific PEP regimen, the timing of PEP, and the exposed worker's level of adherence to the PEP regimen. PEP is most likely to be effective if it is started within hours of an exposure, and outcomes may be compromised as the time from exposure increases. Nevertheless, it may be reasonable to offer PEP up to 72 hours after exposure. Adherence to PEP is strongly affected by factors such as the tolerability of the ARVs, the number of pills in the regimen, and the frequency of dosing. As current guidelines emphasize, it is very important to select a PEP regimen that is expected to be tolerated and that is convenient to take; any side effects or adherence difficulties should be managed promptly. The guidelines recommend the use of 3 (or more) PEP drugs for all exposures. Although the optimal duration of PEP is not known; studies support ARV treatment for 28 days.
In the work setting, HIV infection may occur through percutaneous injuries (e.g., needlesticks) or mucocutaneous exposures (e.g., mucous membrane or nonintact skin exposure) to blood or other potentially infectious body fluids. The risk of HIV seroconversion after occupational exposure with an HIV-contaminated hollow-bore needle is best described as 0.3%, on average. Another way of describing this to an exposed HCP is that, without PEP, HIV transmission occurs about once in 300 instances of needlestick from a known HIV-infected source patient. In a retrospective case-control study of HCP with percutaneous exposure to HIV, the following exposure and source patient factors were associated with an increased risk of HIV transmission:
- Large-gauge (<18-gauge) hollow-bore needle
- Deep injury
- Visible blood on the device
- Procedure with needle in a blood vessel
- Terminal AIDS in the source patient
- High HIV viral load of the source patient
The factor described as "terminal AIDS in the source patient" is considered a surrogate for a source patient with a high HIV viral load (this study was done prior to the routine use of HIV viral load assays); high HIV viral load is known to be a substantial risk factor for HIV transmission. On the other hand, although an undetectable HIV viral load is thought to indicate a low risk of HIV transmission, transmission still is possible, and cases of perinatal and sexual transmission from sources with undetectable serum HIV RNA have been reported.
Compared with percutaneous injury, exposure of infectious body fluids to mucous membranes (e.g., eye or mouth) or to skin with an obvious impairment of integrity (e.g., abrasion or wound) typically involves a lower risk of HIV transmission (the transmission risk for mucous membrane exposure to HIV is approximately 1 in 1,000, and less than 1 in 1,000 for cutaneous exposure). However, mucocutaneous exposures that involve large volumes of blood or other infectious fluid from an HIV-infected patient with a high HIV RNA level or prolonged duration of contact are considered increased-risk exposures.
S: Subjective
An HCP reports possible exposure to HIV through a needlestick injury or mucocutaneous exposure.
Ideally, the HCP should immediately decontaminate the injured or exposed skin with soap and water, or flush the exposed mucous membranes with copious amounts of water or saline. The HCP should report the exposure immediately to appropriate authorities in the health care institution (e.g., the institution's needlestick hotline).
Take a thorough history of the specific exposure, including the type of exposure, the type and amount of body fluid involved, the point of entry or exposure, the time it occurred, the HIV status of the source patient (if known), and HIV risk factors of the source patient (if HIV status is not known).
A: Assessment
Assess potential exposure to HIV (and to HBV and HCV). Consider the HIV status of the source and the characteristics of the exposure in deciding whether PEP should be offered. The guidelines recommend the use of PEP following percutaneous or mucous membrane exposures to potentially infectious body fluids. They note that PEP should be offered even in the case of an exposure to a source patient with an undetectable HIV viral load. Consult with experts if there is uncertainty about whether a particular exposure poses sufficient risk to warrant PEP.
P: Plan
Laboratory Testing
For the exposed HCP
- Perform a baseline HIV antibody test.
- Test for other infections transmitted through occupational exposure, particularly hepatitis B (HBV surface antigen, surface antibody, core antibody), and hepatitis C (HCV antibody).
- Obtain complete blood count (CBC), creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and hepatic transaminases at baseline, before treatment with ARV medications.
- For women who may be pregnant, perform a pregnancy test.
For the source person
- The institution should perform appropriate testing of the source person for bloodborne pathogens (e.g., HIV, HBV, and HCV) if the person's status is unknown.
- The use of rapid or expedited HIV tests makes it possible to render quick decisions about the need for HIV PEP, and the 4th-generation Ag/Ab tests identify most cases of HIV during the window period of acute HIV infection (see chapter Expedited HIV Testing).
- Although a positive expedited test result requires confirmation before the individual is diagnosed as HIV infected, for the purposes of PEP, it should be considered a true positive until proven otherwise, and the exposed worker should be counseled accordingly. If, upon further testing, the source patient is determined to be HIV uninfected, PEP should be discontinued. A negative expedited test result is considered reliable unless the source has signs or symptoms of acute HIV (see chapters Expedited HIV Testing and Early HIV Infection).
- PEP should not be delayed (beyond 1-2 hours) while source patient HIV testing is under way.
A regimen consisting of at least 3 ARV drugs is recommended for all occupational HIV exposures (the U.S. guidelines no longer recommend evaluation of the severity of exposure to determine the number of drugs in a PEP regimen). Recommendations for PEP regimens are based on expert opinion and largely follow the principles of HIV treatment regimens, but the PEP guidelines place particular emphasis on optimizing the tolerability and convenience of the regimen to facilitate adherence for 28 days.
Considerations in choosing the medications for a PEP regimen include:
- Possible ARV adverse effects
- Dosing schedule
- Drug-drug interactions with other medications the HCP may be taking
- The likelihood that the source patient's virus is resistant to 1 or more ARV medications
Provide counseling about the potential risks and benefits of PEP drugs, including possible adverse effects, drug-drug interactions, and the importance of close adherence. Recommended regimens are shown in Table 1; select one that is likely to be effective, tolerable, and convenient. Note that although these regimens are potent in treating HIV infection, their efficacy as prophylaxis has not been demonstrated. Consultation with experts is recommended (see "Expert Consultation," below).
These recommendations are drawn from the 2013 guidelines for occupational PEP; consult the most recently updated version of the guidelines for current information.

(combine 1 drug or drug pair from left column with 1 NRTI pair from right column)
Refer to the appendix in the updated PEP guidelines for more complete information on the advantages, and disadvantages of the various ARV agents available for PEP, and to the adult and adolescent ARV treatment guidelines (reference below) for more information about ARV adverse effects and drug-drug interactions.
Certain ARVs generally are not recommended for PEP because of elevated risk of toxicities; these include nevirapine (which is contraindicated as PEP), abacavir (testing for HLA- B*5701 must be done), didanosine, enfuvirtide, and tipranavir. Efavirenz may have a higher rate of significant adverse effects than other listed agents. Additionally, efavirenz should not be used with women who are in the first trimester of pregnancy or who may become pregnant while on PEP, because of possible teratogenicity. Some "alternative" ARVs may be considered for use based on consultation with experts.
If the source person is known or suspected to have infection with HIV that is resistant to ARV medications, seek expert consultation in selecting an appropriate PEP regimen. However, PEP should not be delayed while consultation is being solicited, and it is possible to adjust regimens based on expert advice.
Begin ARV prophylaxis as soon as possible after the exposure occurs, preferably within a few hours and no later than 72 hours postexposure. Treatment should be continued for 28 days unless the source person is determined to be HIV uninfected.
Provide counseling about the efficacy of PEP, including timely initiation of PEP medications, the importance of adherence to the regimen for 28 days, and management of common adverse effects. Counsel exposed workers to avoid possible transmission of HIV, e.g., by using use latex barriers with their sex partners, avoiding breast feeding if possible, avoiding pregnancy, and avoiding blood/tissue donations, until transmission of HIV infection has been ruled out.
Exposed workers should be reevaluated within 72 hours after exposure to review any available new information about the exposure and the source person as well as test results. For HCP taking PEP, early reevaluation offers the opportunity for further education and counseling, including assessment and support of PEP adherence and evaluation and management of any side effects. In addition to health education counseling, many exposed workers need emotional support during their follow-up visits.
For persons on PEP, monitoring for adherence and adverse effects should be conducted again at 2 weeks. Blood testing (e.g., CBC, creatinine and electrolytes, liver function tests, others as indicated) should be done to monitor for PEP toxicity, as indicated by the particular ARV regimen.
PEP is discontinued after 4 weeks, and monitoring for ARV toxicity generally should not be repeated unless there is a need to recheck an abnormal result.
Follow-up HIV antibody testing should be done at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months after the exposure. If a 4th-generation HIV Ag/Ab assay is used, the final HIV test can be done at 4 months rather than 6 months. Follow-up for 12 months is recommended for HCP who acquired hepatitis C via exposure to a source who was coinfected with HIV and HCV.
Symptoms of acute HIV infection such as fever, rash, and lymphadenopathy (see chapter Early HIV Infection) may occur in HCP who are infected with HIV through occupational exposure. Exposed HCP should be counseled about the symptoms of acute HIV infection and instructed to return for reevaluation as soon as possible if symptoms develop. If symptoms consistent with acute HIV appear within 4-6 weeks after an occupational exposure, the HCP should be evaluated immediately; an HIV RNA test should be performed if acute HIV infection is suspected. If an HCP is found to be infected with HIV, that individual should be referred immediately to an HIV specialist for further evaluation and care.
Expert Consultation
Consultation with experts in PEP and in ARVs is recommended for assistance with managing all occupational exposures. This is particularly important if the source person is known or suspected to have ARV-resistant virus or if there are unusual or perplexing elements about the case (e.g., if the exposed HCP is pregnant or breast feeding, has significant medical illness, or takes medications that may interact with PEP ARVs). Consultation on the treatment of occupational exposures to HIV and other bloodborne pathogens is available to the clinician managing the exposed person on the National Clinicians' Post-Exposure Prophylaxis Hotline (PEPline) at 888-HIV-4911 (888-448-4911). This service is available 7 days a week, at no charge (additional information is available on the PEPline website at www.nccc.ucsf.edu).
Prophylaxis Against HBV and HCV
Prophylaxis against HBV is recommended for patients with potential exposure to HBV who do not have immunity against HBV. Give hepatitis B immune globulin (HBIG) as a 0.06 mL/kg IM injection and initiate the vaccination series. For patients who received the vaccination series but did not develop protective antibodies (HBV sAb+), give HBIG at the time of the postexposure workup and initiate revaccination; consider repeat of HBIG in 1 month. For patients with immunity to HBV, no treatment is indicated.
For HCV, no prophylactic treatments are recommended. After potential exposure, perform a baseline HCV antibody test. If the source is known to have HCV infection, consider alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and HCV viral load testing at 4-6 weeks. HCV antibody testing should be repeated at 4-6 months. If HCV seroconversion occurs (indicated by ALT elevation, detectable HCV viral load, or confirmed positive HCV antibody test result), refer the patient to a hepatitis C expert because early treatment of HCV may be indicated.
Addendum: Workplace Obligations
The health care institution has certain obligations to an exposed employee.* The institution should do the following:
- Evaluate the circumstances of the exposure, the type of fluid, and possible entry points.
- Evaluate the source patient.
- Perform baseline HIV antibody testing of the exposed HCP.
- Counsel the exposed HCP about the possible risks and benefits of PEP.
- Offer or recommend PEP as soon as possible after the exposure, preferably within the first several hours.
- Counsel the HCP about avoiding secondary transmission to others (safer sex and other risk-reduction practices, as indicated).
- Support and maintain the confidentiality of the HCP.
- For an HCP who is taking PEP, monitor for medication toxicity and adherence, and check for drug-drug interactions with other medications the HCP may be taking.
- Repeat HIV testing at 6 weeks, 3 months, and 6 months (if a 4th-generation HIV Ag/Ab assay is used, the final HIV test can be performed at 4 months).
- Report the exposure as required by federal and state regulations (including U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration requirements).
The PEP guidelines recommend that health care institutions have a formal mechanism for consultation about occupational HIV exposures, appropriate initial lab testing for source patients and exposed HCP, counseling for exposed HCP, availability of initial PEP regimens (e.g., starter packs), and a mechanism for outpatient follow-up. The protocols should be readily available to emergency department providers and others who manage exposure incidents.
* Legal issues vary from state to state. In many states, institutions and clinics have no obligation toward nonemployees or students who are exposed to HIV in their settings. In such situations, clinical supervisors or school or university officials often are the first contact for notification. However, everyone working in a health care setting should be familiar with the procedures and financial responsibilities for HIV exposure management to avoid delays in HIV PEP treatment.
Patient Education
- Persons who have possible exposures to HIV in the work setting should contact the PEP service of their employer or a qualified medical provider as soon as possible after the exposure, or they should go to an emergency department. Although PEP may be effective if it is started within 72 hours of exposure, the sooner medications are initiated, the better the chance for preventing HIV transmission.
- PEP medications should be taken as directed for the full 28-day course. Adherence to PEP medications is essential for successful treatment.
- PEP recipients should be advised to contact their providers if they experience uncomfortable side effects. Providers may prescribe medications to alleviate the side effects, or they may prescribe different PEP medications.
- Until HIV infection has been ruled out, exposed workers should be advised to use latex or polyurethane barriers to prevent transmission of HIV to their sex partners, to avoid pregnancy, and to avoid breast feeding if possible.
- Exposed HCP should be counseled about the symptoms of primary HIV infection and instructed to contact their care providers immediately if symptoms develop.

Thanks @Jgod.
May you can integrate/learn from librocket http://librocket.com/
libRocket is the C++ user interface middleware package based on the HTML and CSS standards. It is designed as a complete solution for any project's interface needs.
libRocket uses the time-tested open standards XHTML1.0 and CSS2.0 (while borrowing features from HTML5 and CSS3), and extends them with features suited towards real-time applications. Because of this, you don't have to learn a whole new proprietary technology like other packages in this middleware space.

It's also using the decorator pattern, which was suggested by Mazyod
Or is something like scaleform http://gameware.autodesk.com/scaleform needed/wanted?Which is basically rendering an Adobe Flash Movie.
ListView moving so strange!!!
I do think leveraging an already popular or commercial solution could be very fruitful. It's just a matter of whether it's worth tying ourselves to their API. With things like Spine coming out ahead with strong support, I think it's worth considering.
+1 for libRocket http://librocket.com/wiki/frontend/features
No need to reinvent how to do UI, Web standards are there for us to use.Maybe it will even be possible to use the same tools / UI code for C++ and javascript...Cross-platform and CMake based is what cocos need I think.Disclaimer : I didnt know about it, but it definitely looks interesting...
Another possible choice is CEGUI http://cegui.org.uk/features
It has been there for a long time and is used mostly in games.I also has an editor now.Disclaimer : I haven't tried it yet, but I always wanted to
Yep. If it's working and can be integrated easily into cocos2d-x, it should be used instead of re-implementing the wheel.
@Asmodehn The only "bad taste" about it is the inactivity for a while now. But someone was suggesting, that they are just busy on their own games.As long as javascript can deal with RML(there are already .js implementations to generate HTML out of RML), there is no problem to share the tools/UI code between different languages.
CEGUI, who does not know it, was used in some pretty successful commercial games.Seems to be pretty stable.
Regarding "reinventing the wheel". Wasn't it announced, that cocos2d-x is getting a new sound engine?Same applies here: Is it really needed or is integrating middleware the better approach?
CEGUI seems too heavy for mobile games.About Audio engine, what we want to have is
Is there a good sound engine can meets these requirements?
The first sound engine that comes into mind, regarding those requirements, is fmod http://www.fmod.org/It's one of the best sound engines/sound middleware out there.
They recently changed their licensing requirements. They now have a FMOD Studio Free For Indies! License – Budget under $100k USD but they have a credit requirement in the docs or on screen.
I don't know if those restrictions are against a consideration.
But of course there are other ones as well that would meet the requirements. E.g. https://www.audiokinetic.com/products/wwise/http://www.radgametools.com/miles.htm
and even a free open source one:http://www.crickettechnology.com/
Regarding fmod and wwise is like Pepsi vs. Cola
Please see this: I have opened a feature regarding to TextBox text customization http://www.cocos2d-x.org/issues/5346
Also about UI there is a problem with RelativeLayouts. The example in wiki does not work. Here is the detailed description of the problem: http://discuss.cocos2d-x.org/t/relative-layouts-dont-work-on-cocos2d-x-3-1/15932 Please fix it too.
I would try to add support to QT in all modes. There is no need to reinvent the weel. IMO
@iQDThanks for the information. fmod is good, but it is not free. And i think it is not problem to use it by yourself. Audio engine is not needed when developing cocos2d-x games. You don't have to use it if you don't like it and use the one you like.
And i think it is not hard to use other sound engine in cocos2d-x.
@naghekyanThanks. We will fix it.
@owen Please check the issue.Thanks.
@zhangxm I have found the problem with the relative layouts. It is necessary to change layout->setContentSize(visibleSize); to layout->setSize(visibleSize);. Please update the wiki: http://www.cocos2d-x.org/wiki/Containers
And thank you for considering to support TextBox text customization features (http://www.cocos2d-x.org/issues/5346)!
I am thinking supporting existing mature UI system, such as NoesisGUI. Now the UI system is heavily used in Cocos Studio.
@zhangxm you want NoesisGUI to replace all existing UI classes in cocos2d-x or you want to use them as an additional way of creating UI?
Just my 2 cents to the audio stuff: Of course you can't use fmod because it's not free but nevertheless the audio part is a big part which is important for developing games. It's not only the UI what counts. And yes, it's of course able to use a different audio engines. But I don't want to do it, that's the reason I am using cocos2d-x
And now the UI Stuff:I would also like to see a UI System with a different approach (see the examples above this post). Would be also extremely nice if the system is based on a widely spread language like HTML.
While developing and improving the new system cocos2d-x could support both systems (legacy and shinyUI ). But that would be a lot of work.
About UI : How about that one : http://feathersui.com ?
Apart from that, the only mature UI ( easily embeddable in a game ) based on markup language that I could find are CEGUI and libRocket.
If it s too heavy we probably need to have a look at smaller UI libraries. But I dont know of any one that is mature and that we can easily integrate.
I used Guichan before for the same reasons. It s quite light and it works fine, but it s not easy to integrate ( you need some kind of frontend code like that https://github.com/asmodehn/sdlut/tree/master/Guichan_SDLut_FE/include/guichan/sdlut - this project is old, not even sure it compiles anymore ). Also it seems a quite dead nowhttps://code.google.com/p/guichan/downloads/listhttp://sourceforge.net/projects/gce/https://code.google.com/p/xmlguichan/
some people seems to have used http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/iup/ with some success.
Even if we cant find a perfect UI library for cocos, I would prefer to reuse/maintain/fork/takeover an already existing one (libRocket?), that can work with other engines than cocos, instead of starting again a UI framework from the beginning, that will work only on cocos engine...
About supporting existing mature UI systems, how about supporting http://berkelium.org/, or make it easy to use https://code.google.com/p/chromiumembedded/ for people who want HTML based UI ?
As an additional way.But i have to discuss it with other guys.

Eve nerfed. Now only slows. I need to completely reevaluate my build. Just kidding. She's still OK at my elo. I will need to test a lot more to make sure I don't need to add Ryali's to the main build.
Hello and welcome to my first guide to League of Legends. I am a pretty new player, with about 500 wins or so with many, many different characters. I have about 20 more losses than wins, mostly due to the fact that I try out many ideas like this one, and they fail horribly (Jungle Mordekaiser, anyone?). I also have a bad habit of entering randoms with a character I've never played before. This is an experiment, just like the Jungle Karthus guide that used to be number 1 on this site. It is a work in progress. It is not perfect, nor do I claim that it can even be perfected. It's just a fun way to play a character that would normally be played a different way.
That said, I haven't felt compelled to write a guide about any character, including my favorites, and Eve certainly isn't one of my favorites. But in a way, this build is my own and has had fairly good success in the games I've played so far. It is the unconventional nature of the build that draws me to it, and of course other players' responses to it.
This guide will contain a fairly simple style of offtanking, and Eve will be effectively a support and focus to draw the enemy fire. The success of this build, I must emphasize, does NOT rely on your awesome nuking power and assassination presence, but rather the competency of your team, impeccable map awareness, and your proficiency in guerrilla tanking, which will be explained in the strategy section.
- Beating the Dark Horse
I want to highlight this because it's important in more than the usual way a dark horse build is useful. Of course there will be people complaining about the build as you play it; it happens with all dark horse builds. Of course your opponents will consider you inferior, and of course when you beat them they will be in awe. But the latter benefit is, unlike other dark horse builds, actually a benefit in-game. The other team will think you are a noob and they will focus you, just like any other dark horse build. The cool thing is that in this particular case, that's exactly what you want them to do. Once they start focusing you after they've fed simply because you have a high K/D/A ratio, they're still focusing you, and that's still what you want.
-Unexpecting of the Unexpected
This is another benefit of dark horse builds that makes them so appealing. The normal role the character plays is missing or changed. It puts people on guard for the wrong things, and they make mistakes because they expect something that's not coming. But, yet again, this build in particular fortifies what would normally by a purely psychological issue into something more. Because at some point, your opponents will buy vision wards or oracles. The impressive thing about this build is that you don't really care if they have them. You can go somewhere else. Because you are dictating where the teamfights happen, you can move away from the vision wards they've set down, and have enough survivability to take a few hits if they find you unexpectedly. The big thing to get here is that your w essentially has a special money-draining feature, and I have seen team after team waste well over a thousand gold trying to catch me.
-Extremely Frustrated Opponents
First, they're getting beaten by a noob. Second, why won't she die to my attacks?!? Just like when you take the summoner spell heal and use it right when your opponent thinks you're out of the fight, Eve doesn't practice standard regen over time. In this build, she regens in nuke form. Just when you're supposed to die, if you play your cards right, you can regain a decent chunk of life and kill another overextended player who thought he had you for sure.
-Team-based Play
Eve is notoriously single-minded as a character, just like any assassin or nuker. But with this build, she is an absolute nightmare to fight against in a teamfight. The build effectively slows as if she was constantly twirling Garen's sword around her, except she can do it while invisible. And enemies lose a lot of time when they realize that the enemy can find them anywhere that's not next to a tower or vision ward, and have to walk all the way back from their pushes.
-Protracted Fighting
Because of the staying power Eve has in this build, she can leave, reenter combat at well over 50% health, and speed to most locations to create ganking opportunities. Her ability to hunt down and kill fleeing enemies is also excellent, because most opponents who think the pursuit is over will not see her coming until it's too late.
-Odd Playstyle
You are not a normal tank when you are tanking with Eve. You enter fights, take aggro, and then leave. This is an extremely useful way of tanking and leads to great things like your opponents overextending, but it also means your own team will have a learning curve to cope with if they are not familiar with the build. If they expect you to be a true tank, they won't follow the fight as it moves, or worse yet, they may retreat because they think you are. On the other hand, they might not support you when you attract aggro, because they think you can't take the damage and are just heading out to feed.
-Lower Damage Output
If you play Eve as an assassin, or have never played a tank before, you will have to get used to the fact that you won't be 2-hitting your opponents anymore. This build focuses more on Eve becoming a Singed-like tank, dealing damage over time and setting up kite kills. It can take some getting used to.
-Intense Map Awareness
This build is more demanding on me for map awareness than any other I have played. You have to know where as many of your opponents are as you can, and you have to know, at least in general, where they will go in order to recall, where they will go to gank, and how they will pursue you in a teamfight. If you go invisible just to run in the same direction you'd normally run, you aren't doing it right. If you play the build right, especially after the early game, it becomes incredibly difficult to finish you off because of the speed from both Ghost and your ultimate, as well as your Mercury Treads.
-Late-game Initiation
In the late game, you should initiate most teamfights, and/or call targets for the team to focus. This is different from how Eve normally plays in the late game, as she tends to join partway through a fight to finish off a single opponent, or eats some poor straggler after a fight.
-Closed Minds
Yeah, another symptom of the dark horse. People on your own team will call you noob and rage. It's part of the deal.
Evelynn has always been a hit-and-run character. This build uses that feature as its foundation.
Early Game (Laning Phase):
Let me start out by saying that because of your role, you will dictate the phasing of the entire game. It will be you that leads the transition to each phase, and if it isn't you, then you should be able to adapt to whoever made the change first.
In the early game, you want to focus on sneaking up, stunning, and nuking, just like a normal Evelynn would. You should lane with a DPS character or other consistent damage output because even though your runes are set to assist your nuke, because of the build it will still be much weaker than a straight AP build. Your potions should keep you in the lane well through you first set of kills and sendings (sendings meaning when your opponent is forced to recall due to low health). There are two signs to ways to determine when it's time to gank. The first way is when the enemy in your lane buys vision wards. As soon as they do, switch with someone in the opposite lane. They will have wasted their wards and you will probably get a kill because double-lane ganks are rarer and with your speed they may not see it coming. The other sign is when you reach level 6. You suddenly gain a great deal of survivability as well as speed, which is great for double-lane ganks.
Mid-Game (Ganking Phase):
Here's where you play Eve the normal way. Run from lane to lane causing chaos and confusion. Kill a low health enemy here, hit an empty lane's tower there. Never stay in one place too long. The first teamfight should let you know you're in the late-game, but you should initiate it. I suggest doing so with at least the Trinity Force and a Heart of Gold or better as you build up to Randuin's. Make sure to buy Spirit Visage before Warden's Mail if their team is heavier AP than AD.
Late Game (Team-Fight Stage):
Guerrilla Tanking
This is the term I use for the style of tanking I use with Evelynn. I am going to test it out with several other, normally "squishy" characters, in order to see of there are other characters that can tank in this way, but as of right now, she's the only one I know who can do it well. This style of tanking is very similar to that of singed or other kiting characters, and uses the basic idea of hit-and-run tactics. All characters in LoL use this to some extent, but what makes Eve so good at it is that she is already built for it, and has a passive that greatly reduces her chances of dying while tanking in this way. In addition, players will want to pursue and squish her, because it is normally a simple thing to do.
Eve, when it comes to team fights, should pick where they are, engage the target of her choice, drop her nuke and slow, and run away. Because she is invisible, she can often hit a softer target like a carry or a support, leading to a coordinated teamfight. Once she does so, she can reenter the fight within just a few seconds to slow and nuke again. The impressive thing about her in a tank role is her ability to take minion hits as well as champion attacks and still reenter combat as many as 5-6 times in a single teamfight, whereas normally she might only get one shot at doing her thing. Her passive, combined with health potions and the Spirit Visage, should keep her in the fight for much longer than the opponents would suspect.
Also, when it comes to teamfights, your role is the primary antagonist. Continue pressuring them, baiting them, and splitting them apart so you can coordinate ganks and pushes. Don't be afraid to use both ghost and your ult to get out of sticky situations. Thankfully, even the worst problems can be solved by simply going invisible and walking to where your enemies just were as they wander around trying to find you. Running somewhere that you wouldn't normally think to go is usually a place your opponents don't think you'll go either.
In a teamfight, don't be afraid to be in the thick of the fighting for at least a bit. Your nuke should still do some decent damage, so make sure to hunt down anyone you think is within lethal range after a fight ends. Finish out your Randuins and build a Banshee's Veil if they're balanced. Otherwise, if they are poorly slanted to one type of damage, buy a Ryali's scepter and kick some tush (you might also want to do this if you see you're the only one getting kills).

I didn't have an emergency kit. Whenever I was 36 weeks I went out and got these things(bought or gathered from around the house and put into one centeral location):
Guaze squares
2 Shower curtains (and two fitted sheets for the bed)
2 table cloths
Peroxide (for splatters of blood and what not)
Space Heater
Water bottle
12 or so recieving blankets
8 washcloths
a pot for boiling water
We used everything. The space heater warmed the room for the baby's arrival. We also used it for awhile after too. The hot water bottle was for her because her temp. was low. We wrapped it up in a blanket and put it next her back (herfront was to me). The table cloths and shower curtains were life savers. We only used one shower curtain though. I gave birth on the floor....so we had set up two locations. Peroxide was a life saver!!! I also had sea salt at home that I used to wash all the sheets, blankets, and pillow cases that got blood on them. NOTHING was stained. The sea salt and peroxide worked perfectly.
The washcloths were used for the pernial area when I was crowning. That was ESSENTIAL!! It felt sooo good during the ring of fire.
Recieving blankets were used instead of towels because they're softer.
humm... the flashlight was so the midwife could look for tears....
Well I guess that's about it.
The midwife bought everything else.
So Crunchy

1. Begin by teaching your child to fold his hands and bow his head at meal time and bedtime while you pray. To begin, place your hands over the child's to hold them together.
2. Teach the child to say "amen" at the end of prayers.
3. When the child has a few words, have him repeat you. (Dear Jesus...Thank you for the food. Amen.)
4. Let the child fill in sentences as you lead the prayer. (Thank you for ______.)

- ABC Book: Using the Child worksheet, cut out the boy or girl and glue to a yellow piece of construction paper. Add yellow star stickers on the child and the titles "C-Child" and "Jesus Loves the Children."
• Color Activities:
Color Train - Add a yellow train to your Color Train by having the child color, with a jumbo crayon, the yellow train. Display the train at the child's level to point and discuss the colors.
• Shape Activities:
Using yellow construction paper, cut out a large diamond Using minimal water, have the child water paint the diamond. Talk about the shape as the child paints.
• Animal Activities:
- Using the Elephant worksheet, point to the elephant's ears.
- Using the elephant worksheet and watercolors, paint the elephant yellow. (You may need to put the paint on the brush for the child.)
- Point and count the elephant's legs.
- Find pictures of elephants in the books that you read.
• Sign Language:
"More" is especially helpful at meal time and snack time. Before you give the child another bite, help him sign "more." With repetition and consistency, the child will begin to use this sign to let you know when he would like more and eliminate the desire to scream for more. I encourage you to train the child when he is just a little bit hungry and not tired.
Sometimes understanding the description to sign a word can be difficult. Remember that the ABCJLM Sign Language Video contains all of the signs.
• Book of the Week Ideas:
- Point to the elephants as you read the book.
- Turning pages is a great fine motor skill. Since board book pages are thick, their pages are easy for little hands to turn.
- Point out other objects in the illustrations (umbrella, tree, drink, etc.)
• Fine Motor Skill:
Pom-Pom Transfer - Create a small pile of pom poms on the table or floor along side a shallow container. Demonstrate to the child how to pick up the pom poms and place them in the container.
• Gross Motor Skill:
Push Toy - Leaning on a laundry basket or push toy, allow the child (with assistance) to push the object around a safe room.
