When you first look at this thing the start holds scream climb here, then you look at the rest of the problem and wonder WTF. Start on the obvious low knobs. Figure out how to get onto the wall. Stand up to the only other holds on the wall just below the lip. Working up onto the slab above is easier.
As you enter the corridor this is the second obvious problem on the left. Starting from the two obvious low black knobs just above the rock that sits in the middle of the corridor.
Pad and spotter, there is a rock below this problem that you could land on so plan accordingly.

Amyris starts production at Brazilian biofuels plant, raises $37 million
Renewable fuels, chemicals and products company Amyris Inc. netted $37.25 million cash from a $42.25 million private placement that helps clean up loose ends from previous deals with global fuels giant Total and an investment company owned by the former prime minister of Qatar.
Emeryville-based Amyris (NASDAQ: AMRS) said Thursday that a portion of the more than 14.17 million shares issued in the private placement went to Total Gas & Power USA in exchange for canceling $5 million of an outstanding senior unsecured convertible promissory note issued by the company to Total.
Total earlier this year reupped a partnership with Amyris, committing $82 million over three years for the development of a base compound branded by Amyris as Biofene.
Meanwhile, Biolding Investment SA's investment in the placement satisfies $10 million of a obligation to fund $15 million associated with commissioning Amyris' Paraiso Bioenergia production plant in Brazil, the company said in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
Biolding, an investment company owned by His Highness Sheikh Abdullah bin Khalifa Al Thani, a former prime minister of Qatar, still must invest its remaining $5 million by April 1, Amyris said in the SEC filing.
the Sheikh is a member of Amyris' board.
The Brazilian industrial fermentation facility has started producing Biofene, Amyris said Thursday.
Biofene, a base oil Amyris creates using bacteria to convert renewable materials into base compounds that are used to make diesel and jet fuels, is expected to be sold starting in the first quarter of 2013, Amyris CEO John Melo said in a press release.

Q. Can I require an independent contractor to provide weekly sales reports (number of contacts made, closed sales, contracts sent, etc.) without turning our arrangement into an employer/employee relationship?
Employee Benefits Program
A strong employee benefits program – including low-cost employee incentives, employee recognition programs, and employee appreciation programs – can help you improve morale and retention.
We provide employee appreciation day ideas, help you with employee retention strategies and employee benefits management
Relatively few lawsuits—including discrimination and employment-related cases—are actually tried in a courtroom. In most cases, the parties reach a private settlement. But what happens if the parties reach a settlement and the employer holds up its end of the bargain, only to have the employee have second thoughts and bring another lawsuit?
Q. We have an employee who does not work very hard and her production is marginal. If we terminate the employee, will she be able to collect unemployment compensation?
There's a fine line between legitimate concerns that an employee is abusing the workers' compensation system and punishing the employee who has a legitimate claim. Here's the best way to handle the problem.
In light of the enactment of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009, employers have begun re-examining the cases of some employees who were involuntarily discharged for misconduct. The purpose? To determine whether the employees are eligible to receive a 65% subsidy for continuation of health insurance benefits under COBRA.
Soon after Gary Lizalek was hired at a Wisconsin medical firm, he informed the company that he believed, as a matter of religious faith, that he was three separate beings. The company fired all three Lizaleks. He sued, saying the company failed to accommodate his religious beliefs.
How to reverse a bad situation? Practice three-way respect: 1) Respect yourself. 2) Respect your colleague. 3) Respect the problem. Jack and Mike had been college buddies, and now Jack had inherited his dad's manufacturing business. Feeling that the business had languished, Jack had some new ideas...
Employers now have an answer to their single biggest and most vexing question about the elaborate new federal subsidy arrangement under COBRA, but it may not be the answer they were hoping for or expecting.
Millions of employees would be eligible for seven days of paid sick leave annually if the Healthy Families Act, recently introduced in Congress, becomes law. A coalition of HR and business groups vowed to fight the bill, saying it would "force companies to increase layoffs, reduce wages and cut important employee benefits."
How do you deal with problem employees? Expert HR trainer Amy Henderson says supervisors' discussions should focus on four points when addressing problem behavior.

NEW YORK (AP) — Signs that the global economy isn't strong enough to quickly burn through the world's ample supplies of oil and gasoline sank crude oil prices for a second straight day.
Weak U.S. economic reports Friday followed on the heels of reduced forecasts for oil demand. Oil dropped 2 percent.
The falling prices will help extend a long, slow slide in retail gasoline prices, forecasters say. The average price of a gallon of gasoline in the U.S. fell a penny overnight to $3.56 per gallon. That's 23 cents lower than the high for the year, set on Feb. 27. And gas is now 36 cents cheaper than a year ago at this time.
Drivers in some states, such as Wyoming, Montana, Missouri and South Carolina, may even see a few stations selling gas for under $3.00 per gallon this weekend, says Tom Kloza, Chief Oil Analyst at Gasbuddy.com.
"We're looking at (futures and wholesale) prices that will propel this drop into the spring," Kloza said.
Gasoline prices appear to be on a similar curve to last year, but on an earlier timetable. The springtime highs instead came in late winter, and a seasonal low could come in June this year instead of July. "It's the same roller-coaster ride, but the top of the ride came sooner," Kloza said.
U.S. oil futures fell $2.22, or 2.4 percent, to $91.29 in New York. Brent crude, which is used to price oil used by many U.S. refiners to make gasoline, fell $1.34 to $103.04, the lowest level since mid-July.
Supplies of both oil and gasoline are plentiful, and demand appears to be weak.
"It's the usual culprits," says Judith Dwarkin, Chief Economist at ITG Investment Research. "Supply growth is outpacing demand growth."
In each of the last two years the global oil market faced falling supplies because of production disruptions in the North Sea, East Africa, and Iran, which was facing tighter sanctions. This year, production has proceeded mostly as expected. U.S. output is booming, but Saudi Arabia and other OPEC nations have cut back somewhat in response.
In the U.S., refining capacity is at an all-time high and refiners have gotten a head start on making gasoline for the summer driving season. With supplies above normal for this time of year, refineries might pull back on oil purchases in the coming months. That will slow the drawing down of oil supplies, and keep prices lower.
At the same time, the global economy still shows signs of weakness, suggesting that oil consumption will grow less than expected. When economic growth slows, drivers, shippers and travelers use less gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.
The U.S. Commerce Department said Friday that sales at U.S. retailers fell 0.4 percent last month, indicating that higher taxes and weak hiring likely made some consumers more cautious about spending. The Commerce Department also reported that companies restocked their shelves at a much slower pace in February than in the month before, a sign that companies expect consumers and businesses to pull back on spending.
OPEC, the U.S. Energy Department and the International Energy Agency, which represents a group of oil-consuming nations, all lowered their outlook for global oil demand this week. The IEA on Thursday dropped its forecast for demand this year by 45,000 barrels to 90.6 million barrels a day.

15 Great Vegetarian Pastas
by Toby Amidor in Healthy Recipes, October 11, 2013
These recipes are all sans meat, poultry and fish–but brimming with flavor from veggies, beans, herbs and nuts.
Keeping Calories in Check
Remember that it's easy to go overboard on calories when dining on pasta. One cup of cooked spaghetti has approximately 220 calories. Pile 3 or 4 cups on your dinner plate (not unheard of) are we're talking 660 to 880 calories without any sauces or add-ins. To keep calories in check, cut down on pasta portions and bulk up with loads of veggies and herbs.
Boosting the fiber can also help make your dish more filling. Swap enriched white pasta for whole-grain varieties like whole wheat, quinoa or spelt. Add hunger-fighting protein with beans, lentils or edamame.
Be careful not to overload on cheese as it can push the envelope on calories, fat, cholesterol and sodium. A small amount of a flavorful cheese goes a long way.
Recipes to try:
- Kale and Pistachio Pesto Spaghetti (above)
- Cheesy Spinach Baked Penne
- Buttnernut Squash and Spinach Lasagna
- Sicilian Cauliflower Pasta
- Broccoli-Walnut Pasta with Pesto
- Pasta with Winter Squash and Tomatoes
- Tossed Angel Hair Pasta
- Capellini with Spicy Zucchini-Tomato Sauce
- Penne with Roasted Tomatoes, Garlic and White Beans
- Whole-Wheat Spaghetti with Swiss Chard and Pecorino Cheese
- Low-Cal Fettuccini Alfredo
- Light Baked Spaghetti
- Whole-Wheat Rotini Mac and Cheese
- Vegetable Lasagna Casserole
- Spaghetti and No-Meat Balls

Hanover's Balch Hill area to be opened to deer hunters
"It's kind of catching up with us that our predecessors eliminated the natural predators for deer years ago," said Adair Mulligan, executive director of Hanover Conservancy, which owns part of the nature area.
The area is a favorite among local hikers and bird-watchers. It has been closed to hunting for the past 10 years.
Mulligan said the deer population "has expanded very dramatically and the deer are overwhelmingly small and thin."
According to a recent study by Dartmouth College students, the deer population is encroaching other wildlife. The deer eat native plant life before having to resort to eating invasive plants, encouraging the growth of invasive plant species and eliminating nesting habitats for native birds, Mulligan said.
"We are certainly seeing a lot of ticks up there," Mulligan said.
The natural area will be open to archers carrying a special town permit from Nov. 1 through Dec. 15. No firearms will be allowed.
Most local residents favor thinning the deer herd, Mulligan said. And people using the nature area during hunting season are advised to be alert, wear bright orange and keep their pets with them on the trails.
N.H. Fish and Game, which is working on a larger regional effort to reduce the deer population in the Upper Valley region, has advised Hanover Conservancy that one hunting season will not solve the problem, Mulligan said, so hunting permits will likely be issued again in future hunting seasons.

I live in northern Minnesota and do 2 - 3 overnights a year mostly in the Boundary Waters. I day hike quite often on the Superior Hiking Trail as it's only about 1 mile from where I live.

Sir William Parsons, 1st Baronet of Bellamont
Sir William Parsons, 1st Baronet of Bellamont (1570-1650), was one of the Lord Justices of Ireland in 1640. He also served as Surveyor General of Ireland and Member of Parliament for Wicklow.
William was born to James Parsons (1545-1570) and Catherine Fenton (1548-1570) in 1570. He settled in Ireland about the close of the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, being a commissioner of plantations, obtained very considerable territorial grants from the crown. In 1602, Parsons as surveyor general of Ireland; in 1610 he obtained a pension of £30 (English) per annum for life. In 1611, he was joined with his younger brother Laurence in the supervisorship of the crown lands, with a fee of £60 per annum for life.
In 1620, personally presenting to King James I surveys of escheated estates, in his capacity of surveyor-general, Parsons received the honour of knighthood, and was created a baronet on 10 November in the same year. Sir William represented the county of Wicklow in parliament in 1639, and was nominated Lord Justice with Thomas Dillon, 4th Viscount Dillon in 1640; but that nobleman being soon removed, he was resworn with Sir John Borlace, master of the ordnance. He continued in the government until 1643, when he was removed, charged with treason, and committed to prison, with Sir Adam Loftus and others. He died in Westminster in February 1650, at the age of 80. Parsons was succeeded by his grandson Sir William Parsons, 2nd Baronet (died 31 December 1658).[1][2][3]

Dassault eyes big ME jet sales
Dubai, December 4, 2010
French aviation giant Dassault has a growing fleet of Falcon business jets in the Middle East and is set to grow by 30 per cent over the next three years thanks to a solid aircraft order book from regional buyers, said its top official.
Dassault Falcon business jet sales is poised to grow further in the region as demand for private aviation resumes and the regional market matures, remarked John Rosanvallon, president and CEO of Dassault Falcon, ahead of a leading business aviation expo.
Dassault Falcon will present its range of business jets at The Middle East Business Aviation (MEBA) show being organised by F&E Aerospace from December 7 to 9 in Dubai.
According to Rosanvallon, the Middle East market for business jets is beginning to show signs of recovery as confidence starts to return. 'Dassault's current regional fleet size is about 60 business jets and this is expected to grow by one third over the next three years,' he added.
Rosanvallon said about 40 per cent of the company's new business jet sales were coming from the Falcon 7X.
In fact, the company is set to deliver its tenth Falcon 7X to the region before the end of 2010, he added.
'In addition to the rising demand for new aircraft, the level of private aviation activity is picking up as indicated by the increasing number of hours being flown by business jet operators in the region.'
Dassault has also expanded its presence and infrastructure with a new regional sales office and recently appointed a new regional sales director, in Dubai, as well as a second authorized service center and a new customer service manager, in Saudi Arabia.
'With the private aviation client base now evolving beyond the traditional, small group of elite clients to include corporate leaders, entrepreneurs and other business users, supported by solid aviation infrastructure, Dassault now considers the regional market for private aviation as very 'mature', he added.
Dassault Falcon sold 14 aircraft in the Middle East in the last two years and has a backlog of 15 additional aircraft to be delivered to regional buyers by 2013, said the company chief.
'The Middle East business environment still remains challenging but confidence levels appear to be rising,' Rosanvallon observed.
'Dassault has seen much greater demand over the last two quarters of the current financial year, with larger cabin jet sales and prices holding up better than smaller jets. The indicators for recovery are starting to show but even if this is not a true rebound, business has certainly resumed.'
'Western economies are still struggling to recover but other regions are active including India, South America, Asia - and the Middle East, where we have an advantage because of our military heritage and established reputation, through the Dassault Mirage fighter jets that are operated in some GCC countries,' Rosanvallon stated.
He pointed out that investment made in private aviation infrastructure in the boom years was supporting the development of business aviation in the region.
'The service centers and FBOs (fixed base operators) are recognised as being amongst the best in the world and are helping business aviation to develop rapidly and attract a much broader clientele here,' he said.
'This is the result of the substantial investments that have been made over the last few years and which are now starting to pay off.'
'Given this situation, we are very optimistic about the future, which is one of the reasons we are developing our own presence and adding new resources. CAE SimuFlite, our training provider partner, will, for example, open a brand new Falcon training center in Dubai in the second quarter of 2011,' he added.-TradeArabia News Service

Smoothie King Center, New Orleans, LA
NEW ORLEANS (AP) -- Baron Davis heard boos every time he touched the ball, right up until he sent the crowd to the exits with a game-sealing 3-pointer.
Stephen Jackson scored 26 points, Davis added 23, and the Golden State Warriors beat New Orleans 116-103 Wednesday night to snap the Hornets' nine-game winning streak.
"Nobody likes to get booed," Davis said. "It wasn't really motivation. It was kind of distracting, but at the same time you've just got deal with it. I expected it, so I just dealt with it."
He did indeed.
Davis, who starred for the Hornets during their first two-plus seasons in New Orleans before being traded to Golden State, finished with five 3-pointers and nine assists.
Not bad for a guy who stayed at the hotel during the morning shootaround because he was feeling ill.
At the same time, Davis has had his share of great games in New Orleans, where he still keeps a home in the city's historic Uptown neighborhood.
"It was pretty loud when they were booing, but I heard some people cheering and it's good to see some familiar faces and people rooting me on, telling me they appreciate everything I've done for the community," Davis said.
"I still come back in the summertime. I just don't let people know I'm here. I still do things in the community, help people that were torn apart from Hurricane Katrina. I still have close ties to this city. I love this city. I think it was a great city before Hurricane Katrina and it will continue to be a great city afterward."
Chris Paul had 28 points and 12 assists for New Orleans (32-13), which lost for only the third time in 20 games. David West had 24 points and 13 rebounds.
Golden State's lead was only 92-88 early in the fourth quarter. Then Monta Ellis' driving layup ignited an 11-2 run that included Davis' 3-pointer and gave Golden State a 103-90 lead with 6:21 to go.
New Orleans lost its shooting touch as the game wound down and Davis buried his final 3-pointer, which made it 114-95 with 3:21 left.
"When they are hitting all those outside shots it's really hard to beat them and we never took them out of their comfort zone," said West, who made only two of his first 11 shots before scoring 17 points in the third quarter.
Ellis finished with 16 points. Matt Barnes scored 17 and Andris Biedrins 14 for Golden State (28-19), which played with sustained vigor after losing a night earlier in Houston.
Four New Orleans players finished with double-doubles, but the Hornets, who were missing starting shooting guard Morris Peterson because of a virus, got only nine points from their reserves.
Peja Stojakovic had 20 points and 10 rebounds for New Orleans, while Tyson Chandler had 11 points and 14 rebounds.
Al Harrington scored 13 points for the Warriors. He and Jackson each hit three 3-pointers.
New Orleans, which raced to the top of the Western Conference on the strength of its defense, couldn't do much to stop a Warriors team that settled for jump shots and made the most of them.
Through three quarters, Golden State had 11 3-pointers and had scored only 34 of its 90 points inside. The Warriors wound up with 13 3s as a team and shot 52 percent overall.
When Jackson hit a tough 19-foot fade in the fourth quarter, he looked at Davis and the two smiled widely as they trotted back to the defensive end.
"When we have all our guys on one page and we're hitting shots like that it feels good because we know we're definitely hard to beat that way," said Jackson, who smiled widely at Davis.
Good shooting and swarming defense gave Golden State the edge in the first half.
The Warriors shot 52 percent through the opening two quarters and led by as much as eight in the first quarter when Ellis spun through the lane on the dribble and converted an off-balance layup.
New Orleans, boosted during its previous nine victories by strong play from its bench, had to shorten its rotation with Peterson and fellow guard Bobby Jackson (right hamstring) missing the game.
Rasual Butler's 3-pointer accounted for the only points by a New Orleans reserve in the first half, during which the Hornets shot 42 percent. Paul played all but the final half-minute of the second quarter and kept the Hornets close with 23 first-half points, while Stojakovic added 13 points and gave the Hornets a brief 52-51 lead with a jumper late in the second quarter.
Golden State, meanwhile, hit six 3-pointers in the first half, with Davis making the last at the second quarter buzzer to give the Warriors a 58-54 halftime lead.
Game notes
Hornets reserve Melvin Ely played four minutes in the first half before leaving the game. Team officials said he had an upper respiratory infection. ... The Hornets came in 20-0 when scoring 100 or more points and 20-0 when five players score in double figures. They did both against Golden State but lost nonetheless. ... Attendance was 14,410.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: If 'Redskins' offends, so should other names
The political correctness police have started their ritual (it happens about every 10 years or so) of beating the drums to change the name of the Washington Redskins to something less "offensive." I suggest the new name of the local NFL team be the Washington Thinskins.
This hypersensitive crowd is always looking for some reason to be offended or, more accurately, seem offended. No one names their sports teams after something to be disliked, and that is the case with these other professional sports teams: Kansas City Chiefs, Atlanta Braves, Cleveland Indians, Golden State Warriors and Chicago Blackhawks. Are the automobile names Jeep Cherokee and Pontiac Aztec also so offensive? There are many NFL team names that may be offensive to thin-skinned and hypersensitive people: atheists dislike the Saints, socialists despise the Patriots, short people should be offended by the Giants and Titans, environmental activists dislike Chargers, Jets and Steelers, and so on. Where and when does such ridiculousness stop? If the name of the Redskins is changed, then so should the Blackhawks, Braves, Chiefs, Indians, Warriors and all others be changed.
As a native Virginian, I am often offended by American Indians calling themselves "Native Americans," a group of which I am also a part. As a result, every time I am asked about race and "Native American" is one of the choices, I indicate that I am a Native American — born in Virginia but not an American Indian.

The best vegetables to steam
Tips on selecting vegetables for steaming and how to properly steam.
You may have heard this before: steaming is one of the best ways to cook veggies so they keep their nutrients. Vitamins are easily destroyed when you cook with water for long periods (i.e. boiling), but steaming uses the steam from boiling water to cook your food.
Any veggie you steam will be around 25 calories per half-cup and chock-full of vitamins and minerals.
Broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, asparagus, artichokes, zucchini and green beans are great choices because they're sturdier and won't turn to mush too easily. Leafy greens — baby bok choy, spinach and Chinese broccoli — also steam up nicely but take less time. If you want to try something new, steam some radishes or quartered new potatoes.
Large chunks of veggies are tough to steam quickly, so if you're in a hurry, cut or trim your vegetables into smaller pieces first.
A steaming basket is a cheap way to steam food. Fill a pot with 2 ounces of water and place the basket with the veggies on top. Once the water boils, it takes anywhere from 5 to 12 minutes to cook. It depends on the thickness of the veggie so you may want to check periodically (but don't keep lifting the lid!) and pull them off when they hit your preferred softness. Don't forget the lid. You won't get anywhere unless the steam is trapped in the pot.
Immediately after steaming, have a colander of ice or bowl of ice water ready to plunge your cooked goodies so your veggies stay nice and crunchy.
You can also steam in the microwave. There are some microwave-ready steam veggie packs you can buy at the grocery store. Or just place evenly cut veggies in a microwave-safe bowl (glass), add a little water to bottom and top with microwave-safe plastic wrap.
Now that you've used a healthy cooking method, don't go adding tons of high-calorie toppings such as oil, cheese or butter. Lemon, garlic or just a dash of black pepper can work wonders. I love a spritz of fresh lemon on steamed asparagus. Try mixing a few minced garlic cloves with a teaspoon of olive oil and drizzle over broccoli.

We've been here now for 3 days (our apartment has internet access, so that's how I'm writing this) and I thought I'd tell you what I've observed. It's cold, and I'm from Minnesota so I know. The grass is almost totally green and there are a number of shrubs that must be evergreen. The hardy flowers like pansies have just been planted in the gardens. the cafes have their boxes full of cold hardy flowers outside, and flower shops are displaying all their wares on the sidewalks. I've seen a couple buds that may be ready to start open in a week or so.
That bright pink purse will fit right in. In fact, I've been using a lightweight le Sportsac tote bag much more than I'd planned. It's great because it doesn't weight a thing and I can put my books, gloves, money, purchases etc. in it; I've got a tiny purse tucked in it with my necessities. Tomorrow though I'll be using my healthy back bag purse because we will be hitting some museums and they will allow you to keep a purse, but you have to check bags.
Don't worry as much about how you'll look as how you'll feel. At the last minute I took a calf length rather than knee length coat I'd been planning to bring, and I'm glad i did. This way I don't need to wear my silk longjohns under my slacks. If I had a shorter coat, I'd need the longjohns. For warmth, everyone is wearing scarves of all weights and hues. You'll blend in any warm coat you own as long as it isn't a Columbia type ski jacket. I have 2 pairs of gloves--light weight and heavier; when I want to take photos I wear the lighter ones because I can operate the camera that way. You'll need a hat too if you plan to walk around very much at all. Goretex type shoes or boots also are a necessity if you plan to be out and about much in the rain.
I have some lightweight turtlenecks with me but haven't worn them yet because once you go indoors, you'll be too hot. Instead I've been wearing crew neck sweaters with silk scarves; that way I can control the temperature variations.
Hope I've answered some questions for those of you who are starting to pack. I'm posting this now because I got so much help here when I was planning.
One last thought--no white walking/running shoes unless you are actually planning to jog; that is the only time I have seen them. That is the one thing that really will make you stand out.
Second last thought--we made a big mistake and didn't take our ambien on the plane, so we didn't sleep. Now we're paying for it by having slept away our first two mornings. a word to the wise; do whatever you need to do to sleep on the plane.
Paris right now is cold, a little green, a palce you need scarves & hats, and ok for bright pink purses

Hi julies, so glad to see your post and that is great you packed properly inspite of all the last minute worries about your NW flight!! Guess you know that the pilots union have agreed on a cut in salary etc., now the union just has to vote on it..and it certainly looks as though all are in agreement (but not happy I am sure). So things look good for NW!!!
Have a wonderful time, you have been in my thoughts. -

Thanks for the update. I get to Paris on the 22nd - of course it will be much warmer by then! yeah, right. :-"

Hi julies: It's very nice of you to post. Talking about cold, when we were in Paris last November it snowed! (But it was so beautiful!)
We will be in Paris later this month. Hopefully it will be warmer.

Julies, your report is most appreciated. I hope I'm prepared enough for the cold which I'm sure will not disippate by the time I'll be there soon.

Thanks for taking the time to give us this information. We are cold here also and it is definitely not Paris. Cold in Boston vs. Paris ... I'd take Paris! Enjoy your trip. -

Hi Julies,
Thank you so much for your feeback. It is most helpful as we are preparing to leave in one week. We are now bringing slightly different coats. -

Very useful information. We're reviewing our proposed wardrobes and making adjustments.

scottkiss, I returned last Sunday, it was cold, rainy, raw and everyone was wrapped in scarves, shawls, men, women alike. Boots were all I saw on people, berets, knitted hats anything.
an all weather coat is a good choice, meaning it can withstand rain and still look nice enough to go to a restaurant
Weather won't matter-it's Paris -

And maybe you will have my luck, I take all my warm woolies, expecting cold weather and sure enough, the sun comes out and I don't have anything to wear for warm days LOL....

we were in paris january 03, snowy, cold, but beautiful. Have a great fur scarf I bought at the Galleries Lafayette January sale I probably would have missed otherwise. Have a great trip!

Glad you made it, hope you're enjoying your apartment. And I have found that the up side of not being able to sleep on the plane and sleeping in the first couple mornings is being able to stay up much later than usual the first couple of nights. That's when I can stay out late enough to enjoy the night life.

Julies - thanks for the updates. I was actually thinking of posting a question asking if there were any flowers yet. I was just looking at my photos from previous March trips and there are daffodils, forsythia, dogwood, etc. Any of that showing up yet?
Any forcasts for the week after next. Accuweather is saying sun and warmer (40-60) which I fear is too good to be true.
Have a great time whatever your weather and keep us posted please. -

Today's tip--
Always bring an umbrella no matter what the forecast says. We learned the hard way; stood in line outside the d'Orsay for an hour waiting to get in. I don't know if it is always this busy or if it was the fact that it's free the 1st Sunday of the month. The partly cloudy sky turned to a mixture of sleet/snow & rain. By the way, Accuweather has been the most inaccurate since we've been here.
Today we say crocuses and a few forsythia. I think it is just too cold for anything to open up. The gardens all still havelast fallo's decorative cabbages. -

Thanks for the updates and the tips.
I'm off to Paris on the 14th and am hoping to hear about your trip when you return.
Have a great time!

Is there anything I can put inside his mouth this time to help prevent him from chewing himself up? I'm going to watch him like a hawk this time, but I want to be prepared. Also, he is nervous about the dentist this time (because of the numbing) and I think having a plan of something we can put in his mouth will help him.

If the work isn't too deep would he rather try without the numbing? If it's a baby tooth it might not be very sensitive to begin with, so the needle might cause a lot more pain than it prevents. Dd had a small filling done when she was five and opted to skip the needle with no regrets. She felt a little bit, and put her hand up whenever she needed a brief pause, but it went fine, and she spent less time in the chair since there was no waiting for the numbing to happen.
