6 reviewsLadybird Reversible Convertible Lightweight Stroller
Compact, versatile and stylish, this Ladybird stroller easily adapts to your growing child's needs by converting from a flat carrycot-style pram to a forward-facing or parent-facing pushchair.
The carrycot is suitable for babies until they can sit unaided, ensuring they are comfortable at all times and can enjoy 40 winks when tired.
Once your child can sit up on their own, the seat can be used in parent-facing mode, which gives them reassurance of your presence and experts say can improve your baby's language development.
When they get a little older, the seat can be switched to forward facing so your child can enjoy looking at the world around them.
A 5-point safety harness with chest pads, a removable hood with sun visor and a detachable bumper bar ensure your little one always travels in comfort.
The Ladybird lightweight stroller comes with a rain cover and a handy storage pocket for it is provided in the shopping basket below the seat.

- Suitable from 6 months as pushchair

Obama's gun measures face a tough road in Congress
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama's sweeping gun-control package faces an uncertain future on Capitol Hill, where majority House Republicans are rejecting his proposals while the president's allies in the Democratic-controlled Senate are stopping well short of pledging immediate action.
The fate of his plan could ultimately hinge on a handful of moderate Democratic senators. Although they are unlikely to endorse the president's call for banning assault weapons, they might go along with other proposals, such as requiring universal background checks on gun purchases.
Several of these senators responded warily after Obama unveiled his proposals Wednesday with the challenge that "Congress must act soon."
"I will look closely at all proposals on the table, but we must use common sense and respect our Constitution," said Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont. Tester told the Missoulian newspaper in his home state recently that he supports background checks but doesn't think an assault weapons ban would have stopped the shootings at an elementary school in Newtown, Conn., where a gunman massacred 20 children and six adults before turning the gun on himself.
Obama's proposals came a month after the shootings in Newtown, which he has called the worst day of his presidency. His announcements capped a swift and wide-ranging effort, led by Vice President Joe Biden, to respond to the deaths.
The $500 million plan marks the most comprehensive effort to tighten gun laws in nearly two decades. It also sets up a tough political fight with Congress as Obama starts his second term needing Republican support to meet three looming fiscal deadlines and pass comprehensive immigration reform.
"I will put everything I've got into this, and so will Joe," the president said. "But I tell you, the only way we can change is if the American people demand it."
Seeking to circumvent at least some opposition, Obama signed 23 executive actions Wednesday, including orders to make more federal data available for background checks and end a freeze on government research on gun violence. But he acknowledged that the steps he took on his own would have less impact than the broad measures requiring approval from Capitol Hill. He is also calling for limiting ammunition magazines to 10 rounds or less.
"To make a real and lasting difference, Congress, too, must act," Obama said.
The question now is how and whether that happens. Continued...
House GOP leaders have made clear they'll wait for the Senate to act first, since they see no need to move on the contentious topic if it doesn't. "House committees of jurisdiction will review these recommendations. And if the Senate passes a bill, we will also take a look at that," said Michael Steel, spokesman to House Speaker John Boehner.
Many rank-and-file Republicans scorched Obama's proposal. "The right to bear arms is a right, despite President Obama's disdain for the Second Amendment," said Rep. Tim Huelskamp, R-Kan.
Senators are expected to begin discussions on how to proceed when they return to Washington next week from a congressional recess, according to a Democratic leadership aide who requested anonymity to discuss internal deliberations. They could end up breaking the president's proposals into individual pieces, with votes possibly starting next month.
While the assault weapons ban is seen as having little if any chance of passage, support may coalesce behind requiring universal background checks, which is a top priority for advocacy groups that see it as the most important step to curbing gun crimes. The Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence says 40 percent of gun sales are conducted with no criminal background checks, such as in some instances at gun shows or by private sellers over the Internet. Obama would seek to require checks for all sales.
Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., already has sponsored a bill to require universal background checks that the Senate could take up, while Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., has legislation banning ammunition magazines with more than 10 rounds.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., a gun-rights backer who's been supported by the National Rifle Association in the past, responded cautiously, saying he was committed to ensuring the Senate considers legislation on gun violence early this year. He didn't endorse any of Obama's proposals.
Despite the uncertainty on Capitol Hill and opposition from the powerful NRA, outside groups are encouraged by polling showing public support for changes to the law. They intend to try to harness that sentiment to pressure lawmakers.
A lopsided 84 percent of Americans back broader background checks, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll. Nearly 6 in 10 Americans want stricter gun laws, the same poll showed, with majorities favoring a nationwide ban on military-style weapons.
"Now it's up to us," said Dan Gross, president of the Brady Campaign. He said his group would be working "to bring that voice to bear in this process, because without that it's not going to happen."

Downtown bakery closes
January 11, 2013 · 4:28 PM
Morningside Bread and Pastry Co., located at 707 Bay St, closed its doors Jan. 5 after nine years of operating in downtown Port Orchard.
Many people made it to the bakery one final time Saturday.
But on Monday morning, only three fliers and a closing sign was tapped to the front door.
One flier posted by the owner stated: "I know an explanation would be comforting, but during this time, our family has many struggles, and after all avenues were pursued, keeping our home away from home became impossible."
Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Coreen Haydock said the bakery's closing was unexpected.
"It was a big surprise," Haycock said. "They were very popular and I'm very sad to see them close."
Haydock said in the past several years, it's been difficult for business to survive downtown.
"It's a challenge to get people to stop and shop downtown," she said. "We have a lot of great businesses here."
On the company's Facebook.com page, owners Amanda and Brad Rudd posted the following message Dec. 30: "I know an explanation would be comforting. But, during this time our family has many struggles and after all avenues were pursued keeping our home away from home became impossible. We do want to tell each and every one of you, that your support over the past, almost nine years, will be something we treasure. We loved every moment. We cherish our memories, we value everything we have been taught, and we think there is nothing that can replace the wonderful feeling this place and all of you gave our family."
Word of the closing circulated through social media, especially Facebook.com, and many expressed their feelings about the closure.
"Your neighbors at the library are seriously sad about your closing. Our staff meetings will never be the same! Your family and staff will be missed. Thank you for all the great cakes, doughnuts and raspberry pull-a-parts and for all you added to downtown," Kathleen Wilson posted.
Jennifer Hardison thanked the bakery for donating surplus breads and pastries to the South Kitsap Helpline Food Bank.
"My many thanks to you for years of tasty breakfast treats," Jesse Nice posted. "You made my time in Port Orchard significantly better, through good times and bad and all those in between. Every good wish possible for the entire family in your future adventures."
Debbie Doll stated it was sad to lose another business in Port Orchard.
"Thank you for the times your supported our Chamber and other local businesses, and some of the wonderful family events that you've supported as well," Doll posted.

THANK YOU! The current fund for the motion picture movie is $198,000.
We deeply appreciate all the dedication and participation from those who donated and encouraged others to do so. The sum raised was almost entirely from smaller donations therefore a large number of people donated. We will keep people informed as to how it is progressing. Thank you again from all of us at The Venus Project.
Our aim is to develop a serious major motion picture depicting life in a resource based economy. This film would be designed to reach the general public throughout the world to introduce an exciting, sustainable new social direction, depicting a vision of what our future can be if we intelligently apply science and technology with environmental and human concern. A future where war, poverty and hunger could be but a distant memory.
Today we face very trying times where economies and countries are teetering on the brink of chaos. Our resources are being depleted through waste and irresponsible management. Technology is displacing jobs that are not coming back. Most of our energy needs are obtained through methods which are destructive to the environment and ourselves through the plundering of finite resources which are being consumed at an alarming rate. Existing social institutions are not taking the consequences of this same course of action seriously. These and many more problems will be culminating in the near future and we are not prepared to deal with what is coming.
This film will offer a possible alternative to this global dilemma. It will be an awakening to many and could point a positive direction to work toward. It portrays in detail a global civilization, which secures, protects, and encourages a more humane world for all people - something we have not been able to do throughout history - where all of the world's resources become the common heritage of all of the earth's people.
This does not presume to imply a utopian civilization but one that is always in the process of modification and change; an emergent society where our technology is used to benefit the lives of all.
The film would provide a vision of a peaceful society in which all human beings work toward a global family on planet Earth. A civilization in which all people are engaged in the pursuit of a better understanding of themselves and the world they share.
Future By Design is an officially recognized 501c-3 not-for-profit organization; donations to Future By Design are tax deductible. Script and artist direction are to be formulated by Future By Design. Donations do not provide influence with production, script, or filming decisions.
Thank you for your continued support.

A very difficult puzzle, but it is largely just wires and a string tangled together with the solution not being very elegant. I used a bit of force to solve it but if you want the hardest puzzles on here I believe this is one of them.

Biting Babies
What's more embarrassing than a potty accident at the mall? What's worse than your toddler drawing on the neighbor's walls? What's more horrifying than a screaming meltdown in a restaurant? Having a child who hits or bites other children. It's absolutely mortifying for a parent to watch a child haul off and belt another kid, or find out that he's left his dental imprint on the arm of your best friend's son.
"I would rather hear my toddler curse in church than have him bite another child," proclaims Leah, a mother of two from Richmond, Virginia. "At least you can laugh it off and blame the television. But when your kid hurts another child on purpose, people look at you like you're raising a psychopath or assume that you beat your kids and they're just mimicking what they see at home."
As appalling as childhood aggression is for parents, it's a common behavior among toddlers and a phase that most children eventually outgrow. Understanding why children hit and bite and learning how to handle it is the best way to weather the temporary storm.
Full of curiosity and devoid of empathy, babies act entirely on impulse and never show remorse. Like little hedonists, their motto is, "If it feels good, do it!" And what feels good to someone with budding teeth? Biting. Few nursing mothers make it past the six-month mark without experiencing the shooting pain of two razor sharp bottom teeth clamping down on a nipple when the baby is finished eating. While breasts are common targets, Dad's fingers and Mom's soft cheek are also favorite places for baby biters to sharpen their fangs.
The best way to avoid a nip is to anticipate it and offer your tiny Dracula an appropriate substitute for chewing. Most babies nibble while nursing when they've finished eating and become bored. Pay close attention to your little one's eating habits and remove your baby from the breast with a ready teething ring or other chewable to keep her happy.
Keep fingers out of the baby's mouth and they'll remain in one piece. Cheeks are tough because teething munchkins tend to chomp down during hugs and snuggling. The famous Dr. Spock recommends saying, "That hurts! Be gentle," and putting your baby down for a minute to reinforce the idea that the behavior is unacceptable, even if she doesn't quite understand why yet. And make sure to avoid giving your delicious little one love bites of your own. She's a natural mimic and will be more prone to bite you back!
Infants can pack a mighty wallop, too. It's not uncommon for a frustrated baby to flail her arms and land a decent smack when she's overtired or attempting to push away unwanted food or toys. While it may be unintentional, it can become a learned behavior.
Dr. Seth Scholer, MD, assistant professor of pediatrics at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and author of Play Nicely: A Multimedia Violence Prevention Program, says, "It would be inappropriate to use time-outs with an infant. Once she is old enough to understand (usually nine to 12 months), you can begin setting the rule, 'No hitting.'"

U of M Grants Honorary Doctorate to China's Health Minister
On Monday, the University of Minnesota granted one of its highest honors to one of China's most important ministers. Dr. Chen Zhu, China's Minister of Health was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Science for his work in leukemia research and health care reform.
Chen was recognized for groundbreaking work as a hematologist. According to the University his work turned acute promyelocytic leukemia from a "once fatal form of cancer into a highly curable disease."
The U of M also recognized Chen as a leader in reforming China's health care system, noting his efforts in providing universal coverage of basic health insurance and expanding access to public health services.
However, Dr. Kirk Allison, Director of the University's Program in Human Rights and Health is asking the University to reconsider. He expressed his concerns in this letter, which was signed by 21 other physicians and academics.
"Providing and honorary doctorate in this case actually provides too much honor to a context in which there are victims that are paying a very high price," Allison said.
Allison's concern is that China's transplant system uses organs of those who have been executed.
"The system has been primarily based and primarily dependent on execution," Allison said.
"One could be sentenced to death for one of 55 crimes, and this could be like embezzlement for example," Allison said.
More than a million people are waiting for organs in China.
Dr. Jack Lake, Executive Medical Director for Solid Organ Transplantation at the University of Minnesota Medical Center, says China's reforms deserve praise.
"I think, what they've managed to do in 5 years is laudatory, it's courageous, it has required great political will," Lake said.
Earlier this year, China announced it would try to get more citizens to donate. Within five years, the country's health leaders are hoping to abolish the use of executed prisoners as a source of organs.
"With the social, economic progress of our country, gradually, we have to stop that resource," said Minister Chen.

EAST WHITELAND The window of opportunity for a regular season basketball title in head coach Terrance Stewarts rookie year may have closed on Monday for the Immaculata men. But the Mighty Macs need just one more win to qualify for the playoffs, and are an opponent just about everybody in the Colonial States Athletic Conference would rather not face in the postseason.
For the second time in five days, Immaculata extended league power Gwynedd-Mercy to the limit before falling. Last Thursday was a two-point road squeaker, and the rematch at Alumnae Hall was even closer, as the visiting Griffins escaped with a drama-filled 73-67 double overtime victory.
We dont prepare just to hang in with teams, Stewart said. We think we are one of the better teams in the league talent-wise and we are here to beat teams.
I would feel bad if we came in here and they beat us soundly. And I take nothing away from Gwynedd, but I think we beat ourselves with mental mistakes. We have to stop being our own worst enemy. And its not one major thing but small things like taking care of the ball, making free throws, hitting the open man.
Without juniors Adam Jones (personal reasons) and Jerod Cain (concussion), the Macs were a bit shorthanded on Monday. But senior Kendall Peters filled in and very nearly orchestrated the upset in just his second start of the season.
Kendall was huge, Stewart said. Hes a senior, he got more minutes and took advantage of it. We were never hesitant about putting him in there -- we knew he would play well.
Averaging 3.3 points a contest heading in, Peters ended the regulation with a couple of ultra-clutch, do-or-die free throws, and then knocked down back-to-back three-pointers in the second overtime to put IU in front, 67-66, with 1:46 on the clock. But Gwynedd-Mercy scored the games final seven points, including a three-pointer and two free throws from freshman Darnell Artis.
I feel like this happens every year, Peters complained. We feel like we are right there and then we have mental or physical hurdles that set us back. We just have to stop holding ourselves back from teams we know we can beat.
With a season-best five-game winning streak late last month, the Macs (9-5, 10-11 overall) moved into the upper tier of the CSAC standings, but have now dropped three straight to the leagues top two teams. The Griffins improved to 11-3, 12-9.
We have to get at the level where we can beat those guys if we want to contend for a conference championship, Stewart said. I think we are right there. We played Gwynedd tough both games and I would gladly play Gwynedd or Cabrini again.
Trailing by six with less than two minutes in regulation, Immaculata sent it into overtime with an impressive surge that concluded with a pair of knee-knocking free throws by Peters with less than one second on the clock. A huge defensive play by Todd Stokley as well as a big three-pointer by Tyreek Peoples set the stage.
I know Im a good free-throw shooter so when I got to the line I shot it like every other free throw, Peters said. I wasnt nervous at all.
In the first OT, IU led by four with 2:07 remaining, but failed to hold it. And in the second, the Mighty Macs did not score in the final 1:47, immediately following Peters long range exhibition.
When I found out about Jerod and Adam before the game, I knew I would be the guy they were going to call on, said Peters, who was shooting just .228 percent from three-point land before Monday. I was mentally prepared. Ive been there before so I was ready.
Peters finished with 14 points and 11 rebounds. Teammate Brandon Smith also scored 14.
Gwynedd-Mercy 73, Immaculata 67 (2 OT)
GWYNEDD-MERCY Jones 1-3 0-0 2; Champion 11-16 7-10 29; Artis 5-12 2-3 16; Knight 6-11 2-214; Stanton 0-7 2-2 2; Domino 0-1 0-0 0; Gates 1-4 0-0 3; Wilson 0-1 0-0 0; McKeffery 3-3 1-3 7. Totals 27-58 14-20 73.
IMMACULATA Peters 4-9 2-2 14; Smith 6-10 2-4 14; Klinger 3-7 0-0 8; Stokley 0-2 0-0 0; Torres 3-10 0-4 7; Peeples 2-6 0-0 6; Duncan 1-6 3-3 6; Brown 2-5 2-2 8; DeSantis 2-4 0-0 4. Totals 23-59 9-15 67.

'Winter is the King of Showmen' -Ogden Nash
November 7, 2012 · Updated 8:35 AM
By Scott Rasmussen, Journal editor
Where can you find the creations of 48 local artists all under one roof?
The IMA, that's where. And just in time for the holidays, too.
Beginning Friday, Nov. 16, with an opening reception that night, 5-8 p.m. The Islands Museum of Art will present its first-ever Visual Artist Registry Exhibit, a dazzling month-long show that features a wide range of artistic creations from visual artists based on Lopez, Orcas and San Juan islands, and Waldron Island as well.
The exhibit, entitled, "Winter is the King of Showmen", a tip-of-the-hat to a long celebrated whimsical wintertime poem penned years ago by American poet Ogden Nash, the artist registry exhibit is unlike any artistic forum presented by IMA to date.
And that's not just because of the number of artists represented in the show, it's just as much about the wide assortment and variety of mediums and artistic creations one will find, including sculptures, jewelry, fabric arts, paintings — water colors, acrylics, oils, encaustics —pottery, glass works, photography and more.
"You name, we got it," says IMA's Beth Hetrick, mover and shaker behind the first-of-its-kind exhibit. "I think everyone's been amazed at the diversity of the art. And each piece has a winter theme to it."
An artist registry is a fairly new program at IMA, founded a decade ago as a home and promotional venue for artists from across the county.
By becoming a member of the museum, artists gain the exposure that the museum provides as a sort of- "one-stop-shopping" gallery for all. A quick glance at the IMA website, www.sjima.org, reveals just how alluring that exposure and a listing in the registry can be.
Both the registry and the museum itself represent an evolution in the local artistic landscape and for the San Juans as a budding "destination" for art aficionados, says Hetrick, who has been creating island-inspired art from her home on San Juan Island for more than two decades. The San Juans are steadily gaining notoriety as a hot bed of originality, she said, and as a home of both skilled and accomplished artist, much like the galleries and artists of Port Townsend or La Conner.
"The buzz is growing," Hetrick said, "that the San Juans have exceptional artists."
The registry exhibit will also have a multi-generational flavor to it, as several artists featured in the show, Maria Michaelson and Fiona Small, for example, not only were born and raised in the islands, but learned their craft here as well.
In addition to beverages and snacks, the opening night reception will feature music by local saxophonist Teddy Deane.
(Exhibit trivia: In its search for a winter time moniker for the show, IMA turned to Helen Machin-Smith and Daniel Mayes of Island Stage Left, who suggested Nash's poem for the title).

So, I said I'd make it, and I am, and to get this ball rolling I present to you a scene from the worst war movie ever made. This one you can't actually blame on Hollywood, as it was made in Canada. "But Sheepherder," you say; "it's sort of like a low budget Saving Private Ryan set in World War I, it actually isn't that ba... oh... kay..." The gauntlet has been thrown down, BrokenForum.
Look on the bright side: it could be worse, I could have started the thread with the sex scene. Yes, you read correctly. Apparently something about the gas projectors, the exploding French countryside, and the ruggedly dirty Canadian soldiers gets the nurses all hot and bothered. I wish I were exaggerating in the slightest.
Man fuck Canadian WW1 media. I was forced in high school to read a book that included a scene where a male soldier is gang raped in a public bath house, and where an old woman recounts her experience of walking in on that same soldier having angry doggy style sex with her older sister. I then had to do an oral report on said book. Fuck whoever wrote that book.
That is almost certainly the film's anachronistic and fictional take on the crucified soldier story, which is very well known Canadian/British military history whether or not it actually happened. WWI Canadian military is actually quite interesting. It was disproportionately "glorious," whatever that means in the wider context of the Western Front's tragic futility, with the positives and negatives that came from "martial glory" in terms of a country's military history and memory. It was also rather brutal, as the Canadians and Germans fell into a cycle of take-no-prisoners warfare, a subject that's been little discussed outside of academic military history.
I generally don't put much belief in that story. We're either expected to believe that a bunch of dudes watched one of their own get crucified while holding rifles accurate to half a kilometer, or that they stumbled upon the remains afterwards but the body was never recovered. That being said, even if you accept the fiction of the movie, you have to question why they decide to show the enemy respect immediately after crucifying one of them. As an added bonus, if I remember correctly the kid is supposed to survive being staked out for hours in the open in no man's land. I might be mistaken though, because:
My interpretation of the scene was that the artillery, purely by coincidence, flung him up there and onto the cross thing.
The movie shows it - as Elyscape points out - as a grotesque accident but at any rate the movie takes place 2 years after the historical incident and/or rumour, and is pretty clearly a fictionalized guess or quasi-historical reference rather than an historical portrayal. The rumour was, iirc, not crazily far fetched so much as it was poorly attested (especially in comparison to its status as a big wartime atrocity legend). In the interwar period there was a reaction against "German atrocity stories," in part because of concerted efforts by the Germans and in part because some of them were of course false. On the other hand, a good number of "Germans committing atrocities in Belgium" ones from 1914 were accurate, though, however much they were elaborated and fictionalized by lurid propaganda. The Germans Army had a rather hair-trigger phobia of and draconian approach towards any hint of guerilla warfare, and the advance through Belgium saw significant war crimes take place. There's a wikipedia article with various NPOV-fights, but I don't think there's much dispute about the whole "huge reprisal shootings for anything that looks like guerilla activity" pattern.
I actually browsed through the IMDB page when I was initially pointed in it's direction. I have a feeling it would end with me throwing the TV at my popcorn, for things like this:
Oh, hey, I've got this on Blu-ray! Still haven't watched it... I wish there were more good World War I films.
Though it doesn't quite meet the, uh, lofty standards set by Sheepherder's film (it is a WWI film though!), BBC's production of BIRDSONG is quite possibly the most miserable and sadistic adaptation of a novel ever made. It is, without exaggerating, three hours of an entire film crew and cast trying their damndest to make Eddie Redmayne frown as long and as hard as possible. This is quite the horrific thing to do considering he is still frowning from BLACK DEATH - let's cut the kid a break, shall we? No, we shan't. I'm not really sure what is more brutal: the melodrama or the war. Both are equally boring, but in the former he breaks up a family and basically drives a woman to kill herself (iirc) and then he rejects her sister (who is now maimed, again, iirc) who has always loved him even after telling him he had a kid with the other woman that he never knew about PLEASE STAY FOREVER (wtf) and then he leaves and in the latter he gets every single person he cares about killed because he's too busy being butthurt over girls for anyone to do their job properly. He literally gets his best friends killed when they come up with a "bomb the German hq from the tunnels below!" plan to cheer him up and instead of saying "fuck this let's get wasted" he's like "SUICIDE IS PAINLESS" and Tom Sizemore looks really sad. I think BBC trolled PBS.

FCP Post:: Pics:Michael Jordan In His Dorm In 1983, His Style Hasn't Changed Much Since http://t.co/xichCunQ
Pics:Michael Jordan In His Dorm In 1983, His Style Hasn't Changed Much Since
Lots of stuff have been surfacing from Michael Jordan's past. First a love letter he wrote back when he was in high school, and now picture from his dorm in college back in 1983.
In the pic above is a young MJ and while I won't mention the nuthugger jeans he has on (as that is now the current style in 2011 -___-) I would like to know what he is holding the Umbrella in his room for? Wait, is that Gucci? As a college student, not sure how one would have the means to purchase a Gucci umbrella while on a ramen noodle diet, NCCA violation perhaps?? *shrugs.
Although lacking fashion sense in 1983, BSO points out that his fashion hasn't changed much since. In fact, I think Jordan may have gotten worst over the years. Are those bleached wash jeans with tears? Is that a Blade type trench coat? Check out these Jordan Fashion fails below.
