Diabetes Apps
Diabetes App Innovators |
Pam Henry Tom Xu Matthew Tendler |
If you have a phone and a chronic disease, chances are there's an app for what ails you. Not sure what to download? Consider these popular apps, which are free, unless noted.
Blood Glucose
Diabetes Pal
if you don't have a Telcare blood glucose meter that wirelessly sends
test results to this app, you can take advantage of Diabetes Pal by
manually entering your blood glucose readings. The app also logs your
medicine and food, allows for note-taking, and—with what is probably the
greatest draw for users without a Telcare meter—plots data on a line
graph, pie chart, and bar graph. The downside: Text in the logs can be a
bit small.
For: iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Glucose Buddy
This comprehensive diabetes app lets you record, annotate, and graph your blood glucose level, medication doses, food eaten, and exercise. Browse and post to the Glucose Buddy forums from your phone or view your data on the Glucose Buddy website. Notifications remind you when it's time to check your blood glucose.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Blue Loop
Consider Blue Loop a hub for caregivers of children with diabetes. Parents, doctors, and other caregivers can update a child's information—with, say, the most recent blood glucose reading or lunch time carb grams—which the other caregivers can view in real time. Customizable text messages remind kids of diabetes-care activities and alert parents when a child has taken action.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Caregivers can prepare to aid you in case of severe hypoglycemia with Eli Lilly's Glucagon app, which includes an illustrated video on how to inject the medication, storage tips, and drug information and indications. You can also note your kit's location and expiration date in the app and set a refill reminder.
For: iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Charity Miles
Exercise does a body good, but with this app you could put your workout to even better use. Pick one of nearly a dozen charities, click whether you plan to run, walk, or bike, and get moving. The app tracks your distance, and the Charity Miles company enlists sponsors to be able to reward your chosen charity with a donation for your hard work.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
If your workout is sorely lacking in the fun department, download this entertaining fitness game that combines exercise training with a zombie story, your own music, and directives—for instance, "Run faster, a horde of zombies is approaching!" Your distance, speed, duration, and other data sync with an online site where you can view stats and graphs. The app costs $3.99 on Android and $7.99 on the iPhone (and other Apple devices) and Windows Phone.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, Windows Phone
Carb Counting With Lenny
Kids with type 1 diabetes can learn to carb count via Medtronic's simple app. They can browse photos of common foods to learn how many carbs are in each or play a "does this food have carbs?" game to rack up points.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Using a plate graphic and bold colors, this app can help you visualize how well you're meeting your daily nutrition needs. Log foods using a comprehensive database that includes more than 40,000 common foods and over 20,000 restaurant meals, view nutrition facts, and see what percentage of your current calorie intake is from carbohydrate, fat, and protein.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
This app aims to improve nutrition choices by providing a thorough look at the foods you eat. Search for foods or scan bar codes to get a comprehensive profile, including nutrition facts, tips and notes, a health grade, and even the percentage of other Fooducate users who like a food. With one tap, get a list of healthier options or add a product to your shopping list.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
This app makes keeping track of your medications, well, simple. Add prescription and over-the-counter meds, doses, and frequency as well as prescriber and pharmacy information. Set alerts to remind you to take your meds or refill a prescription, and learn about possible savings on prescription drugs.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Weight Loss
Calorie Counter
Store all of your weight-loss data—including food, water intake, exercise, and weight—in one place with this extensive app. Journal meals by searching the large food database, logging by voice, scanning the bar codes of packaged foods, or saving favorite meals for easy logging later. The app provides a detailed look at a food's nutrition facts as well as a breakdown of nutrients. The Calorie Counter forums and a Facebook-like feed with other dieters' updates make for a social experience. The app costs $3.99 on Android and Apple devices.
For: Android devices, BlackBerry, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Sleep Time
Researchers know sleep and diabetes are intertwined (for a new study on the topic, see "Catching Z's," p. 18). Monitor and analyze your sleep patterns on your phone with Azumio's app. Just rest the phone beside you on the bed during the night and Sleep Time will use your phone's accelerometer to note nighttime movements and graph the amount of time you spent in the various stages of sleep. For wake-up time, users set a 30-minute window and the alarm sounds during their lightest sleep, so they awaken feeling more rested. The app costs $.99 on Apple devices.
For: Android devices, iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch
Comments are subject to review and will not be posted immediately. If you have an urgent medical question, please consult a health care professional. If you have a question for the staff of Diabetes Forecast, please send it to firstname.lastname@example.com need apps for my Nokia running Symbian Belle!
Not a single app for my Nokia 701 running Symbian Belle...
blood sugar
What numbers are too low. I have a hard time understanding the number scale
Ask your doctor. You need to
Ask your doctor. You need to have a good relationship with your doctor. This is very important, especially if you are unaware of where your blood sugar levels should be. It might take some time to learn but keep asking your doctor questions, that is why they are getting paid the big bucks.
Apps for Mac Pro Mountain Lion 10.8.2, iPhone & iPad iOS 6.0.1
Apps for Mac Pro Mountain Lion 10.8.2, iPhone & iPad iOS 6.0.1: What is available for tracking diet/glucose etc. that is compatible for all around Mac use?
Actually, you can access
Actually, you can access MedSimple on your pc/mac at MyDiabetesHome.com. Then if you happen to get a smartphone down the line, the web-based app syncs all of you information onto your phone, in near-real time. Cool, huh?
On Track
i love using On Track to keep me on track with glucose, meds, even my HbA1c....it also creates reports, graphs, etc that you can print or export or email. easy to print and take to the doctor, and much easier for the doctor to read than my handwriting.
Agree with OnTrack
I use OnTrack with my Android tablet and it's wonderful. It's one of the few tracking apps that doesn't require connectivity and an account to work. Once you download it to your device you can use it whether you're connected or not, and it's got more features than I need. It could only be improved by an integrated carb counter, IMO.
It's not available for iOS, though.
Glucose Buddy: Used this one
Glucose Buddy: Used this one for about a year, but found entering meals to be too cumersome. Switched to Lose It when they added the glucose monitoring. Much much easier.

Apparently, Screen Gems hasn't quite spoken its mind yet.
The studio will continue to think deep (-ish) thoughts as it plans on moving forward with a sequel to this year's ensemble relationship drama, "Think Like a Man," according to The Hollywood Reporter.
"Think Like a Man" was based on Steve Harvey's nonfiction bestseller, "Act Like a Lady, Think Like a Man," offering a sort of meta-twist on its source material as it concentrates on four couples in which the women apply the advice of Harvey's book to rein in their men.
Original screenwriters Keith Merryman and David A. Newman will return to pen the sequel. It's currently unknown which actors will come aboard for the second go-round, but rising star Kevin Hart, who just scored a part in the "About Last Night" remake, is a likely candidate.
"Think Like a Man" was released on April 20 and went on to earn over $91 million at the domestic box office on a budget of just $12 million. The romantic comedy sports an ensemble cast consisting of Hart, Michael Ealy, Jerry Ferrara, Meagan Good, Regina Hall, Taraji P. Henson, Terrence Jenkins and Jenifer Lewis.
No release date has been announced for the sequel, but let the speculations begin on what the title might be. "Still Thinking Like a Man"? "Continue Thinking Like a Man"? Or perhaps this time it will take the first half of the book title and call itself "Act Like a Lady"? Our bet's on that last one.

Perception during the Great Recession was that America was ready for smaller cars. Grownups would trade in their midsize sedans and SUVs for compacts, and hip first-time urban buyers would move up from fixies to the automotive B-segment, buying cars like the refreshed 2014 Ford Fiesta.
Reality has been a bit different. New subcompact, or B-cars, tend to do well in their first model years with plenty of marketing and advertising help, then drop off to somewhere above niche status through the rest of their lifecycles. This was true for two generations of the Honda Fit, then for the Ford Fiesta, which launched with the huge boost from an intensive social media campaign.
This year's B-car is the Chevrolet Sonic. Its competitors have suffered. While Chevy has sold 57,221 Sonics in the U.S. through August, Ford has sold 39,561 Fiestas, off 25.7 percent versus the first eight months of 2011, and Honda has sold 33,918 Fits, off 21.5 percent. The new Toyota Yaris at just 22,700 is up 59.9 percent.
Ford's Alan Mulally's mantra is "constant new product" and to that point, the 2014 Fiesta gets refreshed a bit more than two U.S. model years into its lifecycle. The car debuts later this month at the Paris show, then comes to Los Angeles in November. It will go on sale in North America by Spring 2013 as a 2014 model.
In the U.S., the 2014 Ford Fiesta will continue as a four-door hatchback and sedan. The biggest change is to Ford's new post-kinetic, Aston-Martin like grille under a "power-dome" hood, all of which debuts here on the 2014 Fusion. Ford also will announce at Paris that the 1.0-liter EcoBoost I-3, launched in the European Focus, will be added to the subcompact's engine lineup.
We can expect that engine option added when, or shortly after, the refreshed Fiesta goes on sale here next year. Ford already has announced it will sell the three-cylinder EcoBoost in the U.S., though it will debut in the Focus. Fiesta will need the engine to maintain, at least, EPA parity with its bigger sibling.
Ford says interior quality is improved, and it will add a number of new premium options. The 2014 Fiesta gets Active City Stop, which applies brakes and rear hazard lights in the case of impending collision, MyKey to allow limits to top speed and adjust other dynamic parameters for certain drivers, Emergency Assistance, which automatically calls local emergency services and directs via GPS in case of a crash, and the latest Sync technology.
Yes, these updates apply to the 180-hp Fiesta ST, which is expected for U.S. import after the updated model goes on sale.
The European-spec 2014 Ford Fiesta is pictured along with 2014 Ford Fiesta spy shots in the gallery below.

Sciatica is back pain which radiates down into the leg and is caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve. It can be caused by a number of factors although a prolapsed or slipped disc is one of the most common.
The medical term is acute nerve root compression or radiculopathy. The cause of pressure can be varied from a slipped disc (also known as a herniated or prolapsed disc), disc degeneration or muscle tension (Piriformis syndrome) or something less common such as a tumors, bony growths (stenosis) and infections.
A prolapsed disc or slipped disc as it is sometimes known is not simply a disc that has 'slipped' out of place. Intervertebral discs separate the bones of the spine (or vertebrae) and their function is to act as shock absorbers or cushioning for the spine and allow movement.
They quite happily allow flexion and extension (bending forwards and backwards), lateral flexion (sideways movement) and twisting. However a combination of the two can put excess stress on the spine and damage the discs. This is particularly common in people who may lift heavy objects and twist with them for example unloading heavy boxes off the back of a lorry.
The intervertebral discs are filled with a gelantinous substance in the middle called nucleus pulposus and when a disc prolapses this jelly-like centre squeezes out and puts pressure on the spinal cord compressing the nerve routes and causing pain.
Depending on where the sciatic nerve is pinched will determine where you feel the pain, which can radiate to the front of the knee or right down the back of the leg to the foot. The L5-S1 disc is the disc most commonly damaged and the L4-L5 disc the next most commonly damaged. L4 and L5 are the bottom two Lumbar vertebrae at the base of the spine. S1 is the top of the Sacrum.
Piriformis is a muscle found deep in the buttocks. The sciatic nerve runs very close to this muscle. Tension in the muscle can cause compression of the sciatic nerve which can cause sciatic pain in the bum and down the leg.
It is sometimes difficult to distinguish between sciatic pain caused by a disc problem, or caused by piriformis syndrome. Generally with piriformis syndrome there will not be any lower back pain and there is usually a less well defined point of injury.
Read more on piriformis syndrome here.
The treatment of sciatica really depends on the cause of the injury and the extent of the symptoms.
Severe cases (usually caused by a disc prolapse) may require the following treatment:
In less severe cases and those caused by piriformis syndrome, less rest is required:
After the acute painful phase:

The Federal government has urged members of the Boko Haram to respect the sanctity of human lives while expressing their grievances and reconsider the opportunity offered for dialogue with the Federal Government in the interest of unity, stability and economic development of the country.
Minister of Interior, Comrade Abba Moro who made the appeal yesterday, when he played host to members of the Borno State House of Assembly, led by Hon Abdulkarim Lawan, said it was high time the group stepped out to articulate its grievances and thereby open a window for dialogue.
'The Boko Haram members should go back to the table of dialogue in the interest of the innocent human beings that are losing their lives . Even against the backdrop of some disagreement on the basis of certain issues that are not acceptable by them, I still believe that those unacceptable areas can be ironed out by talking.
Comrade Moro, who harped that the surest way to resolve differences was through dialogue, therefore charged the Islamist sect to in spite of their grievances, follow the path of dialogue instead of violence.
He said, "If Boko Haram and its leadership have something to say; if they have any grouse against the Nigerian state, the proper thing for them is to come out in flesh and state it, so that a process of dialogue that will eventually lead to the resolution of the crisis and the siege on Nigerians can commence in earnest."
Earlier in his address, the Speaker, Borno State House of Assembly, Hon Abdulkarim Lawan called for the review of the dawn to dusk curfew imposed on the state to 7am -10pm, to enable the predominant Muslim faithful attend their evening prayer, which usually falls within 8pm, following an improvement in the security situation.
The speaker expressed appreciation at the ability of the paramilitary to contain security challenges at the border since the declaration of the curfew following the emergence of the sectarian conflicts.
Responding to the appeal, the minister emphasized that the presence of the men of the paramilitary, the closure of borders at certain entry points and the declaration of the state of emergency in some local government councils in Borno State are not intended by the federal government to punish them, but was intended to protect lives and properties of the state and its environs.
' I feel happy, that Borno people appreciate the positive contributions of the men and officers of the Immigration Service, as well as that of the Civil Defence Corps.
I assure you that the paramilitary will redouble its efforts in the discharge of its duties both at the borders and as members of the joint patrol taskforce.'

text: (Newser) – The fire that killed more than 110 workers at a Bangladesh textile factory last month was the result of a deliberate act of sabotage, an official inquiry into the incident has concluded. Investigators have also concluded that the factory's owners were seriously negligent, and that mid-level factory officials prevented workers from fleeing the blaze, the head of the inquiry tells the BBC. Previously, fire officials had said the fire might have been caused by poor wiring.

Pressure mounted for Chancellor George Osborne to attend the Leveson inquiry after it emerged today he had discussed the BskyB takeover bid with Rebekah Brooks at a dinner in 2010.
Former News International boss Ms Brooks admitted to the inquiry that she discussed the takover bid with Mr Osborne and although she couldn't remember who started the conversation, she accepted it might have been her.
Council for the inquiry Robert Jay QC asked whether this was appropriate.
"For one three-minute conversation at the beginning of dinner I got the opportunity to give our view. I don't think that is inappropriate," Ms Brooks said.
She also said she had discussed the deal "in passing" with David Cameron.
"The BSkyB bid was mentioned at the dinner at our home in December, but I don't remember having a particularly forceful discussion with Mr Cameron on it," she said.
"Mr Cameron always made it very clear that he turned it into, or it was a quasi-judicial decision and it wasn't up to him ... He was always very even-handed of it."
The former News International chief also revealed that Mr Cameron had expressed regret that he could not be more loyal publicly following her resignation over the phone-hacking scandal.
The issue of contacts between Ms Brooks and the Chancellor was raised by the release of emails from News Corp lobbyist Frederic Michel by the Leveson Inquiry last month.
One email showed that she had reported Mr Osborne's reaction to an Ofcom announcement on the BSkyB bid: "Same from GO - total bafflement at response."
Mr Osborne has submitted a written statement to the inquiry but was not expected to attend.
Ms Brooks also gave details of dozens of lunches and dinners with successive prime ministers.
She claimed to have met or dined with Tony Blair at least 30 times between 1998 and 2007, and a number of times with Gordon Brown.
She said she and Mr Cameron met at least once for lunch and four times for dinner following the 2010 general election, including at a Christmas dinner party at the Brooks's Oxfordshire home on December 23 that year.

Bodhinatha's Latest Upadesha: "Detachment from Experiences; Importance of Daily Vigil" (May 5, 2013)
All experiences are good experiences, necessary to get us here. Awareness of aspects of ourselves that are constantly changing is a liberating perception, breaking our chains to mundane areas, detaching from instinctive and intellectual to go into superconscious. The greatest challenge facing youth today is the lack of relating to the devotional side of Hinduism. Daily practice, daily vigil, moves us forward spiritually.

For anyone driving on N.C. 24, west of Clinton over the past few weeks, the sight of a a new building rising from the ground might draw interest. The dozens of workers, busy as a hive of bees, will make them do a double-take.
Those seen on the job site are a group of volunteers building a new church.
Kit Cowger, activities leader for the Clinton Kingdom Hall, explained that the Jehovah Witness congregation has been planning and working to build their new building for about six years. But the way these belivers build is different from how most congregations construct new churches.
"We are so excited to be able to accomplish this goal so we can be a reunited church once again. This weekend we hope to complete the roofing and get most of the brickwork done. We have over 500 volunteers here this weekend doing all the different things that need to be done to build our building. All the labor is completely done by volunteers," explained Cowger during an interview Saturday, Sept. 22.
Nolan Wiggins, a volunteer from Mount Olive, was on site this past weekend and shared that Jehovah Witnesses have developed regional teams around the world who come together to share their expertise in various fields to either remodel or build new buildings.
"In North Carolina,, we have four different regions, one in the west, two in the central part of the state and the other in the eastern section. The eastern section, which we are in, is basically from the South Carolina line up to Virginia and east of I-95," stated Wiggins. "Craftsmen and women, carpenters, heating and air conditioning professionals, painters, electricians, plumbers, roofers, brick layers, any job that is involved in construction come together and volunteer their time and experience in service to God. When determining who will go where, we generally try to send people close to the area where they live and work," added Wiggins.
There is on-site training offered by the experts for the volunteers that need extra knowledge to perform needed tasks. But no one is paid to provide labor for the construction project.
Ground was broken in July and the foundation was poured around Sept. 14. Kit shared that they expect to get the certificate of occupancy on Monday, Oct. 8.
"We have become so well oiled in the process of construction, with all the expertise we have that we could build a new church in one weekend. But due to safety concerns, we now do it over several weekends," cited Wiggins.
The Clinton congregation sold their old building, which is up N.C. 24 only a little ways from the new site, a little over a year ago. Cowger stated that since the sell of the old Kingdom Hall, the two congregations have been meeting in two separate locations. The English speaking group has been meeting at the Vander Kingdom Hall and the Spanish speaking group is meeting at the Mount Olive Kingdom Hall. There are around 85 English speaking members and 40 to 50 Spanish speaking members.
"We are ready to come back and be one again," expressed Cowger. "Although all Jehovah Witness groups study the same lesson each Sunday and mid-week, we want to be back together for our fellowship," added the activities leader.
For Jehovah Witnesses world-wide, everyone is on the same page each time they gather together. "If we visit another group, I know that I will know what they are studying because it is the same thing I would be studying at my home church," explained Sylvia Carter, a volunteer from Kill Devil Hills. "It is so exciting to be a part of something that is so marvelous as building the new building so these members can meet together again and study God's word and be better prepared to go out and witness to others," added Carter. "We are an international brotherhood."
This past Saturday, Sept. 22, the group fed 300 volunteers for breakfast and prepared 500 meals for lunch. The campsite is complete with a full kitchen and Porta-Johns, with some of the volunteers actually bringing campers to camp on the work site. Many leave them in place during the week so they will already be set up when they return to volunteers the next weekend. Volunteers working this weekend were from Raleigh, Kill Devil Hills, Sanford, Fayetteville, Wilmington, Mount Olive, Goldsboro and many other places from the region.
"This construction of our new Kingdom Hall is truly a work of faith," remarked Kit. "We were able to use the funds received from the sale of the old property to purchase many of the supplies needed. We do not take up offerings nor tithe in our services. It is all on a volunteer basis. We have faith that God will provide. When we complete the building we should only have about a 10 year mortgage," cited Cowger.
Once complete, Kit shared that there would be two services on Sunday, one in English and one in Spanish, which includes public talk and Watch Tower discussion. Mid-week services would involve Bible study, theocratic ministry school and service meeting.
This same building procedure is used by the Jehovah Witnesses around the world, but the building is adapted to the location where it is situated.
"The building here in Clinton is adapted to the possible winds that can occur from weather conditions seen here. The construction is such to resist damage from hurricanes and tornadoes," said Wiggins. "The members did experience roof damage from the severe weather that came through just over a year ago," added the volunteer from Mount Olive.
Clinton's new Kingdom Hall will seat between 150 and 200 people. According to Cowger, the meeting hall is designed such to hold everyone as children and adults study together.
"The work being done here is truly a work of faith and volunteers as we have united from all over to get this new building built. We look forward to worshiping together once again," remarked Cowger.
The regional group is preparing now to build a new Kingdom Hall for Magnolia new Rose Hill.

'Poets of Action': The Saint Louis Black Artists' Group, 1968-1972 (Part 3-4)
Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4
After four years of operation in St. Louis, the leading musicians of BAG had grown frustrated with the lack of opportunities in St. Louis and in the United States. As mentioned earlier, Hemphill's record label Mbari, which he started because few domestic labels would record BAG's type of music, suffered from poor distribution. Outside of a small underground arts audience, most St. Louis jazz fans in this period had little interest in the type of music played by BAG, and the Mbari records received no local radio play. The final decision to leave St. Louis, however, was precipitated by two more specific occurrences: the disappearance of grant funding and the AACM's glowing reports of opportunities in France.
In June 1969, the Anthony Braxton Trio and the Art Ensemble, both groups that had developed from Chicago's AACM, moved to France with no booked performances or engagements. Within two months of their arrival, the groups had recorded six records and appeared in numerous live and televised concerts. Several of the returning AACM musicians stayed in BAG's St. Louis building following their work in Paris. Lake recalls, "My friend Lester Bowie had arrived in Paris a couple of years before with the Art Ensemble and when he returned he was very excited about the acceptance of the music; hence my interest was piqued." The combination of diminishing grant money in the U.S. and the plethora of overseas musical opportunities recounted by Bowie and his comrades had enticed leading BAG musicians to leave St. Louis. Their destination, Paris, had been a traditional host for marginalized African-American visual artists, musicians, and writers. Monson cites musical examples ranging from singer/dancer Josephine Baker (another St. Louisan), trumpeter Louis Armstrong, and saxophonist Coleman Hawkins to bebop musicians such as Charlie Parker and Kenny Clarke, and avant-garde performers like Steve Lacy and Archie Shepp. "One of the things about European audiences is that [they] always respected the avant-garde explorations," she remarks.
Oliver Lake remembers, "BAG had begun performing throughout the St. Louis bistate area and we were looking to expand our musical and performance horizons, so we said, 'Let's go to Paris'." Eventually Oliver Lake, Joseph Bowie (brother of Lester Bowie), Baikida Carroll, Charles "Bobo" Shaw, Floyd LeFlore, and several others raised enough money in St. Louis for the trans-Atlantic trip and purchased two vans for driving to the French provinces for gigs. Their first gig, a televised concert at the American Center (a Parisian cultural organization that played host to many of the more radical American artists of that era), was cancelled because of a French television strike. However, the appearance was rescheduled and the group immediately began to attract the attention of listeners and the press as well as obtaining money from the French Ministry of Culture.
Admiring features appeared in French magazines, and the BAG musicians in return admired the knowledgeable French audiences. "It seemed the French were more educated, because we were doing some more abstract stuff. There were kids over there who could tell you about Louis Armstrong, and who knew who Sun Ra was, which was really impressive," says LeFlore. BAG and AACM musicians achieved much higher visibility in the French mainstream press than at home, and the French jazz press seemed to take the BAG musicians, in particular, far more seriously than St. Louis music writers of the time. Reviewing an October 1972 concert featuring several BAG members, a writer for the French Jazz Magazine commented on the "politics of exchange" between the AACM and BAG and lauded the "many tries, meetings, exposés (that seem to be practiced with care), of vagabond-likeness within the sounds." The critic also made clear that the BAG and AACM musicians did not produce a monolithic body of work, writing:
Concerning the sound work ... the B.a.g. musicians cleanly distinguish themselves from those from Chicago. First in their use of relationships between sound and silence, breath and music. ... Here the music is often born of a very progressive invasion, very slow, of space. Here also, the gesture precedes the sound and participates in the music.

I personally really enjoy my involvement with TVAM (Tri-Valley Active Moms.) Lots of really nice, fun, supportive women and families. The organizers of the group are awesome and there are at least 20 different events or "meetups" each month.
Google "TVAM" and "Pleasanton" and you should find it.
Posted by Mama, a resident of the Another Pleasanton neighborhood neighborhood, on Apr 21, 2009 at 10:30 am
Well, groups are what you make of them. The PMC offers up dozens of activities every month. Laura, this group has over 500 members, so unless you've met them all, your statement about 'mean women' is way, way off, and honestly, pretty offensive. There are not-so-nice people in every crowd, but the judge the entire group based on personal experience with a few bad apples is so short-sighted.
There's a general meeting tonight at Mohr Elem. Rather than judge based on hearsay, why not come by and meet some of the women in the club?
Posted by Laura, a resident of San Ramon, on Apr 22, 2009 at 8:26 am
I'm also a "Laura from San Ramon", and my experience has been quite the opposite. I've met amazing women and their families, and my son has made many friends. The events are fun, the online chat can be very supportive and informational, and there are a lot of different ways to meet other moms and find things to do with your child or children. No organization is without flaws or members who can be disagreeable, but my experiences with the PMC have been positive and the women I've met are friendly and welcoming.

Critic Blasts Dead Chef By Accident
Errors, they happen and the sign of a good journalist is admitting you messed up. Another sign of a good journalist is not making the mistake– say blasting a dead chef and confusing the name of a restaurant with a form of cancer— in the first place, but we digress.
Canada's "Hamilton Spectator" apologized earlier this week for the following mistake:
In the June 16 edition, the name of Hamilton waterfront restaurant Sarcoa was misspelled. The Spectator regrets the error.
What did they call the restaurant? Sarcoma– a form of cancer.
That's all good, we get it, typos happen. The following mistake by the "Sacramento Bee" leaves us scratching our heads a bit.
In Blair Anthony Robertson's recent review of "Silva's Sheldon Inn" he calls out Chef Don Brown for not creating a "foodie destination." The problem is Brown has been dead for more than two years.
This is no secret, even the restaurant's website notes the passing of Brown, a nephew of the restaurant's founders.
Bring on the damage control.
First there was an apology from the writer in a blog entry on the paper's website:
I made an unfortunate error in today's restaurant review of Silva's Sheldon Inn. I failed to connect with the restaurant's owners prior to publication. Had I, I would have learned that Don Brown, the longtime executive chef at Biba who later became sous chef at Silva's Sheldon Inn, died in 2010. Mr. Brown was mentioned briefly in the review. I have already heard from many of Mr. Brown's friends and loved ones, and I want to apologize for the jolt of pain and anguish my error caused.
Those who knew Don Brown have told me, as one email stated this morning, that he was "a great father, wonderful chef, super person." Other emails have made similar characterizations.
This error has already been addressed in the online version of the review and will be corrected in the newspaper. I feel terrible about the mistake and will redouble my efforts to make sure errors big or small do not find their way into my work.
And then there was an editor's note attached to the article:
This story has been edited to remove erroneous information about the late Don Brown, an accomplished chef in Sacramento who worked with Doug Silva at Silva's Sheldon Inn and previously for many years at Biba. Mr. Brown died Feb. 17, 2010 of a disabling stroke. The Bee regrets the error.
We bet they due regret this error.

This is very English and I think that makes it difficult for me to completely understand some of what's going on.
The story also seems very scattershot and it's kind of a weird way to introduce us to all of the characters. The pilot should just be the first day Linda starts at the paper and the flashbacks in the phone conversation would work as a way to reintroduce characters in the second episode or so to remind viewers of who the characters are. The flashbacks also make it seem like Linda is seeing those scenes, but there is not way for her to do it.
The other people who work at the tabloid seem overly uncaring and bad at their jobs. Their over the top incompetence doesn't jive with the problems that Linda has dealing with the job she has, that she doesn't like.
You're also giving Linda too many things to do, when you should be focusing on one assignment she is given and use that as the plot of the show. Minor characters can be given side stories to deal with, but Linda needs one story to work with and finish writing at each episode. I'll be honest the script wasn't doing much for me, and I stopped halfway through.

MELBOURNE, Australia – Australia's Matthew Guyatt upstaged the marquee players at the Talisker Masters on Thursday, shooting a 7-under 65 to take a two-shot lead after the first round at Kingston Heath.
Adam Scott had five birdies on his final nine holes for a 67 and was tied for second with defending champion Ian Poulter and Michael Hendry.
Former Australian Masters champion Stuart Appleby had a 71, as did 2010 U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell, who was playing in the same group as Scott.
''It was a nice day,'' said the 37-year-old Guyatt, who plays on the Japanese Challenge Tour. ''I have never been in this position before. It's what you do all the hard work and practice for. I am not going to get ahead of myself.
''It's the first day of four and we all know it takes four good days to win the tournament, particularly when you look at the caliber of those guys.''
Poulter, who won the World Golf Championship's HSBC Champions in China two weeks ago, was satisfied with his score.
''I feel 5 under is a decent round,'' he said. ''I made a couple of 30-foot putts, but missed a few short ones. But if the greens firm up, it's going to be tough to get to some of those pins.''
Scott, who like Guyatt began his round on the 10th hole, birdied the first four holes on the front nine after starting off with a birdie and a bogey on the back nine.
''I just hit a few shots in there nice and close and had some chances but lipped out the putts, then missed a real short one on 18 out of frustration,'' Scott said.
''I made a great putt on two and another good one on four then I was rolling from there. I hit a couple of nice shots and had a couple of short birdie chances too, so it was all really solid stuff.''

The number of households is predicted to rise by almost a quarter over the next 25 years, new figures for Scotland show.
National Records of Scotland expects the number to increase from 2.36 million households in 2010 to 2.89 million in 2035, up 23%.
The rise is said to be due to a growing ageing population and changes in household structure, with more people living alone and in smaller households.
Increases are predicted in all four strategic development plan (SDP) areas: Aberdeen City and Shire; Edinburgh and south-east Scotland; Dundee, Perth, Angus and North Fife; and Glasgow and Clyde Valley.
More households will also be seen in Loch Lomond and the Trossachs national park areas.
The acting Registrar General for Scotland, Audrey Robertson, said: "The average household size in Scotland is projected to fall from 2.17 people in 2010 to 1.95 people in 2035 and similar decreases are projected for all SDP areas and national parks.
"Between 2010 and 2035 there is a projected increase of almost 60% in households headed by someone aged 65 or over. There are also large increases projected for the SDP areas and national parks.
"The number of households headed by someone aged 65 or over is projected to increase by almost half in Dundee, Perth, Angus and North Fife SDP area and by three-quarters in Aberdeen City and Shire SDP area."

Faced with constant complaints about a dearth of parking spots on downtown streets, Palo Alto officials are weighing a wide range of dramatic solutions, from building new garages and introducing valet parking at existing ones to installing more electric-vehicle charging stations and beefing up the parking requirements for new developments.

New parking garages will cost $100 millon each. Not with my tax dollars. If employers want more parking, let them build new garages.
Posted by Mary, a resident of the College Terrace neighborhood, on Nov 1, 2012 at 10:50 am
There should be a fee to charge electric cars in City Garages. The owners of the cars shouldn't get free power that is paid with my tax dolloars.
Many Cities charge for parking garages. If the issue is so critical put up new garages, charge for them and also put parking meters on the streets that are very busy.
Posted by Crescent Park Dad, a resident of the Crescent Park neighborhood, on Nov 1, 2012 at 12:08 pm
As written in an earlier article - require developers to provide greater number of parking spots for new buildings.
Secondly, join the 21st Century and install parking meters that accept debit or credit cards (or iPhone app).
This is not rocket science and doesn't need a $150K study.
Posted by Wayne Martin, a resident of the Fairmeadow neighborhood, on Nov 1, 2012 at 1:14 pm
The link points to a letter sent previously to the City Council about the management of the downtown parking structures--
Web Link
Since the time this letter was sent, the Arrillaga project has been revealed, making the problem even larger.
It's very hard to believe that the current parking structure management--which is effectively the planning department and the City Manager, with nominal oversight by the City Council are up to this job--since none of these people can be held accountable for their decisions.
Wonder if any of the people running for City Council have thought through the issues, and been providing clear visions of what the City needs to do--once they are elected/re-elected to the Council.
It's also kind of amusing that we are paying the City Manager and his immediate staff around $2M in salary and benefits--and all they can do is contract out for "studies" which they then generally follow. What's the point of paying these huge salaries when all these folks do is sign contracts, and follow what these unaccountable consultants tell them to do. Come to think of it, maybe it's not so amusing after all.

"What's the point of paying these huge salaries when all these folks do is sign contracts, and follow what these unaccountable consultants tell them to do."
It's the same story as in the private banking sector. Palo Alto pays huge salaries because the neighbors do. If it didn't, the city staff will take jobs elsewhere, and there would be nobody to sign Palo Alto's consulting contracts.

An answer that works in other areas might be the answer here.
Just offer a 99 year lease ( or shorter ) to parking structure management companies. Paying for city parking is a new revenue stream that other cities have. Let THEM build the parking structures!
It appears that many city governments have this " We have to spend TAXPAYER MONEY for a consultant " mantra instead of DOING THEIR JOBS and researching a problem and presenting solutions that work in other cities.
People can be intellectuals and not have a lick of common sense. Is that the real problem in the SFBA?
Posted by KJ, a resident of the Crescent Park neighborhood, on Nov 1, 2012 at 1:55 pm
These don't sound like bold proposals. Talk to Sausalito, LA, and Indianapolis about the flexible-rate, space-tracking and reservation systems they are trying out. There is real-life experience now with smart parking solutions and they should be considered, especially for a new garage. And especially if it's true that paid-up places often stand empty in the garages we have now.
Posted by Ducatigirl, a resident of the Old Palo Alto neighborhood, on Nov 1, 2012 at 2:21 pm
We used to have an electric scooter, and it cost about five dollars an hour to charge it, or about twenty-five dollars a day. What must an electric car cost, as they require eight hours to charge? Getting you electric car charged for free is lke getting your gas engine car filled up for free, isn't it?
Posted by Concerned Retiree, a resident of the Midtown neighborhood, on Nov 1, 2012 at 2:41 pm
Parking problems and too much congestion -- another argument against the out of scale and out of zoning building proposals by Chop Keenan and John Arrilliga.
Let's look at what it takes to improve our present traffic, parking and human congestion -- and keep our quality of life which we came to Palo Alto for.
Posted by Joseph E. Davis, a resident of Woodside, on Nov 3, 2012 at 8:34 am
This may come as a shock to residents of Palo Alto, but the technology to manage shortages of resources like parking spaces has been with us for thousands of years.
It is called the price system, and it works by increasing the price until there is enough of the resource left to satisfy new "customers".

Palo Altans and their cars....yuk yuk yuk. Amusing.
Posted by Not Exactly, a resident of the College Terrace neighborhood, on Nov 5, 2012 at 9:30 pm
"We used to have an electric scooter, and it cost about five dollars an hour to charge it, or about twenty-five dollars a day"
At 12 cents per kWh, your scooter would have to have been drawing over 40 kilowatts (for illustrative purposes: close to 60,000 horsepower) from the grid to run up that charge.
It looks like someone has been smoking their breakfast.

'Mythical' $78,000 Romanée-Conti 1945 set to star at Christie's wine auction
One of just 600 bottles from the 1945 vintage is coming to auction in Geneva next month
A bottle of Romanée-Conti 1945 will feature prominently at Christie's Fine Wines sale in Geneva on May 17.
The legendary vintage of the bottle is sure to have many wine investors interested, and its estimate of $56,000 to $78,000 is evidence of the esteem in which it is held.
Bought by the present owner at a Christie's charity auction in May 2007, just 600 bottles of 1945 were produced, making the specimen a much coveted rarity.
The 1945 Burgundy achieved its distinctive flavour due to the hot, dry summer of that year, which produced a small crop of very high quality grapes.
Sotheby's states that this bottle "will remain mythical for many decades" due to "its vintage, which marked the end of a terrible war [and] its contents, the last of the great wine from the prephyloxera (ungrafted) vines which covered the 1.85 hectares of Romanee-Conti."
The contents display an excellent colour and level although the label is "bin-soiled".
A 1945 vintage bottle sold for $32,900 at Christie's Beverly Hills sale in 2006, while another specimen made $26,798 at a London auction in 2007.

Our sportfishing boat Tease Me is an Islander 23 centre console fiberglass Skiff, custom designed for the Fiji Islands to best suit the shallow coral reef lagoons whilst still being more than capable of handling outer reef chop and ocean swells.
Built by the Fiberglass Shop in Fiji, this highly successful hull design is used extensively by many resorts and private owners all over the Fiji Islands. The vessel has proved itself as a versatile all-round skiff and Matava Resort even operates a custom adapted version as a 6 person dive boat.
With a self draining floor, low free-board for handling fish boat side, walk-around centre console, ice chests, extensive safety equipment, T-Top shade and bow casting platform for inshore work such as fly fishing.
Tease Me is the perfect platform for popper casting for GTs and jigging for Dogtooth Tuna around Kadavu island's coral reef systems and barrier reef slopes.
With a cruise speed of about 20kts, she will have you fishing within minutes of departure from the resort.
A normal day aboard Tease Me consists of an early breakfast and a morning fishing session. She then usually returns to the resort for lunch, followed by an afternoon of further fishing, returning to the resort aroud 5.00pm.
She has a crew of one and can take up to three guest anglers but for GT popping, 2 anglers is ideal.
On board are fish finder, GPS, VHF radio mobile phone and full safety gear.
The Fishing
Wahoo Yellowfin Mahi mahi GTs Spaniards Coral Trout Dog Tooth Tuna
Tease Me offers guests a complete range of fishing including trolling lures along the miles of reef systems and outer barrier reef slopes, casting in the mangroves, deep water jigging, casting poppers for GTs and trolling the blue water for Pacific sailfish, Yellowfin tuna, Mahi mahi and monster Wahoo.
The Gear
Shimano Penn Pakula Halco Rapala
Tease Me carries 30lb Class Shimano TLD25s on Excaliber custom built rods.
These lever drag game fishing reels are easy enough to use for the first time angler but capable of handling the hard fighting reef predators and sport fish found all around the island.
In addition we can carry light casting rods for the popper crunching GTs as well as deep water jig outfits to find those deeper reef dwellers such as Dog tooth tuna, coral trout and black trevally.
If you wish to target the really big GTs and Dogtooth Tuna here, you must bring your own specialist heavy tackle.
The Praise
"it has been well documented in fishing magazines that these islands not only produce an amazing variety of tropical gamefish, but also that the fish seem to come in exceptionally large sizes"
"…it seems the wahoo only come in two sizes – big and bigger !"
"Our overnight stay at the pretty Matava Resort was a wonderful experience and here traditional thatched Fijian bures set among the lush hilly rainforest offer magnificent views of the lagoon and fringing reef"

What is Far Infrared heat? Why are infrared saunas better than a conventional sauna?
In an infrared sauna far infrared heat is used to directly penetrate the body's tissues to a depth of over 1½ inches right into the muscle. Its energy output is tuned to correspond so closely to the body's own radiant energy that our bodies absorb close to 93% of the infrared waves that reach our skin.
A conventional sauna (steam sauna) must rely only on indirect means of heat: First, on air currents and then, direct contact of hot air with the skin to produce its healing effects on us. With Far Infrared heat and our unique Carbon Wave 360 Panels, less than 20% of the far infrared energy heats the air, leaving over 80% available to be directly converted to heat within our bodies. Thus a Far Infrared Sauna can warm its user(s) to a much greater depth much more efficiently than a conventional sauna.
