- Beautiful Shawl - takes a LONG time to make Review by NULL NULL
I am very experienced with crochet, and this was a challenging, but fun, project. While working with the pattern, I discovered that there was one section that requires you to divide the number of stitches in your row into groups of seven or eight, and three. It was complicated enough that I had to work with the numbers for about 30 minutes before I figured it out. This pattern really requires a lot of patience and determination, but if you have those qualities, the result is worth the effort.

Lispin' in their childish prayer,
And my soul is filled is music,
And my mind forgets its care.
Then next mornin' the sun comes peeping
O'er the blue ridge far away,
With his yaller face a'grinnin'
Old Mammy up and say,
"Get together, little chillen,
For to make the Christmas gay,"
Then she clapped her hands together,
"Praise the Lawd for Christmas Day!"
That was Christmas I can tell you,
On that old Virginny shore,
But it 'pears to me, my honey,
We don't have such times no more.
We was poor, but that was nothin'
We could laugh, and sing and pray,
Let me tell you, it ain't the presents
That makes the Christmas gay.
It's the heart that loves the Christ Child,
Bringin' peace, good will to men,
Huntin' out his heartsick brother,
For to make him smile again.
And the spirit of the season,
Ain't gwine never to depart,
If you're like us in old Virginny,
You've got Christmas in your heart.
There are no words to express my love and appreciation for the mountain of get well cards that I have received. I am especially grateful for the prayers that have been offered up for me. The Lord has heard and answered prayer. God bless you all!

The American Idol Experience
The American Idol Experience
Echo Lake, Disney's Hollywood Studios
Reader rating
The American Idol Experience at Disney's Hollywood Studios is a new audience participation show, based on the format of the popular TV show. There are 7 regular shows per day, and a grand finale show featuring the winners from the earlier shows. Guests in the audience vote for their favorite and the winer receives a dream ticket pass for an audition for the TV version of American Idol.
Opening Dates
The grand opening date was February 14 2009.
Soft opening previews began in early January 2009.
: No
Height/Age Requirement
: Must be aged at least 14 to audition. Auditioning guests 14-17 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (Feb. 7, 2008) -- Walt Disney Parks and Resorts will create an "American Idol" attraction that will bring the television and pop culture phenomenon to life at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, it was jointly announced today by Jay Rasulo, chairman of Disney Parks and Resorts; Simon Fuller, CEO of 19 Entertainment; and Keith Hindle, executive vice president of FremantleMedia Licensing.
The attraction, slated to debut in late 2008, will be located at Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park and will follow the model of the high-energy show. Disney guests will be able to experience the challenge of auditioning, the rush of performing on stage in competition, or the thrill of judging the performances in a live interactive entertainment setting with all the glitz and glamour of the distinctive "American Idol" set.
That experience will include an audition process, open to all who register, where guests perform "live" in front of a Disney's Hollywood Studios producer to be cast in a theme park show. After backstage preparation -- working with a vocal coach, hair and make-up -- it's lights up and showtime in front of a "live" audience and a panel of judges.
Guest performers with the highest votes will compete in an end-of-day Grand Finale show at Walt Disney World, and the winner of the Grand Finale show will receive a guaranteed reservation for a future regional stadium audition -- to ensure no waiting in long lines. But when it comes down to the television show auditions, everyone is treated equal.
"Millions of people have imagined themselves standing on the 'American Idol' stage," said Rasulo. "We're excited that we will be bringing this dream to life every day at Walt Disney World."
Added Fuller, "One of the most remarkable elements about 'American Idol' is that for a brief moment each week, we can provide TV viewers the opportunity to imagine life as America's next superstar. Disney's new attraction perfectly captures what we at 'American Idol' feel is the heart and soul of this brand, real people getting a shot to make their dream a reality."
"This partnership," noted Hindle, "brings the number one show on television, watched in over 100 countries, to the number one theme park destination in the world. It's a perfect combination and opportunity to offer everyone a taste of the 'American Idol' experience."

My previous visits to Riga were in the winter. Fading light on gloomy afternoons, sleet and snow chilling the soul, forcing me to seek the refuge of a warm bar or café. Now I am here in vibrant springtime, with a crescent moon in a crimson night sky after a day of warm sun. Suddenly, light green leaves have burst the grip of the long, bare winter. There is a promise of better days ahead: this great European city looks to the future with new confidence.

Is there a way to write a script to copy a selected/chosen artboard (and it's contents) to another opened document, placing it in exactly the same place on the global x/y coordinates? I'm either unable to find this feature built in to Illustrator, or it's simply missing. Any help is greatly appreciated.
if you need to replicate all the artboards, you could loop thru all of them. If you need only certain artboards you could either ask (which ones, that would be the easy way) thru scripting or select some pieces live in each of the artboards and add logic to find out the artboards indexes.
what version are you using? in CS5 there's a function to select all objects in a given artboard
Yes, I'm using CS5. It would be a case of only needing to pick and choose which artboards to copy as needed from the original template onto an existing document. The nice thing is, the documents and all of their artboards (or vacancies) are all in the same location (on all of the documents), so if I can get a script it would ideally seat the copied artboards/artwork into the same vacant location. In other words, all of our documents started from the same template…and we now have hundreds of files from this original template. We have now had a need to add a few artboards to the original template. Now that we've added them to the template, we must go back and add only the new artboards (to the same vacant location) on all of the other hundreds of files. Trying to explain it clearly, but I'm not sure, am I making sense?
There are just three layers of depth in these files. "Template", "Approvals", and "Art". The "Approvals" and "Template" layers will be locked (but should be copied/duplicated onto the other document that has the exact same layer structure/names/locked status.)
Does that answer what you're needing to know? Let me know if you need something else.
There are no layers that I created as "sub-layers". I think I'm a little new to the "sub-layer" terminology. There are objects and object "groups" that exist within the "Template" and approval layers, but none that were created as "sub-layers" containing multiple sets of object groups etc. Am I making sense or do you need to see an example?
Let me just say that "Actions" in Illustrator CS5 are worthless. Even trying to create a manual "action" to do this is proving impossible because of the limitations of this feature. It doesn't record 50% of the actions a user takes. Can't even record the steps to create a new artboard. Very frustrating (again) as I try to get something done using actions in illustrator..
Sorry for the vent, but all that to say, I am grateful for your help with scripting this. Let me know if you need any other info from me.
Something that springs to mind straight away… This could become a RPITA both your artboards and there relative artwork must be separate… AI lets you do artboards in formatted rows etc. or completly random and art can exist across multi-artboards… I would hop you are dealing with the first of these?
There are very limited opions when working with artboards… Using the select method and using app.copy() app.paste() may be one route… I don't know if 'paste remember layers' is a writable boolean in the pref's or you could just ask the user opts for this before running…? Not tried it myself so it would need testing… I try NOT to use the clipboard where ever possible… Anyhows I don't think it's a 15 minute re-hash of some code I already have…
Carlos, I had on my to do list a PDF page importer ( been there a little while )… Not had the oportunity to look at your script yet ( but I will )… I have several issues with AI and it's artboards Im glad I missed CS4 where they were just plain $h1t at least they put some sugar on it in CS5 but they still smell and taste like…
Hi Tim, here you go, open both your template and your destination document and run the script

Carlos - wow. This is great, thank you so much!
This seems to be working perfectly and will save TONS of time for us.
A couple of questions:
Hi Tim,
1. I was afraid you were going to ask for that
2. I'm not sure, it might be possible
3. thanks
4. add the following line after line 54, destDoc.activeLayer = destDoc.layers[0]; // activate "Art" layer
so it looks like this
line 54 lockHideLayers(destDoc, destDocLayerState);
line 55 destDoc.activeLayer = destDoc.layers[0]; // activate "Art" layer
visually it will look like nothing happened, some other layer "looks" active, but the Art layer is the active one, the screen will update after you switch to another document and come back.

Published: June 7, 2011
Updated: June 7, 2011
Wesley Burks, MD, chief of the Duke Division of Pediatric Allergy and Immunology, discusses food allergies in children and what parents should do if they suspect their child has an allergy.
The house dust mite is the most common allergy.
In the United States the most common food allergies are milk, egg, and peanut, with peanut allergy being the most serious.
One theory that has developed about the increasing prevalence of allergies is called the hygiene hypothesis.
This theory states that exposure to allergens in the environment early in life reduces the risk of developing allergies by boosting immune system activity.
Conversely, early exposure to a relatively clean environment would sway the immune system toward allergy-promoting responses. Clean environments are simply part of our modern society, but a super clean environment is really not necessary.
It's okay to get infections, to retrieve food from a relatively clean floor, and to let your children play in the dirt.
Atopic dermatitis, or skin rash, in the first six months of life might indicate the presence of a food allergy. Be aware of when symptoms develop, and talk with your pediatrician.
It is uncommon for a child to have a life-ending allergic reaction before adolescence. It is not clear why adolescents more commonly have these reactions, so that question is being studied. It could be hormonal factors, risk-taking behavior (that is, an adolescent eating a food that he knows he's allergic to) or other factors we do not understand now.
If a child is having recurrent symptoms (more than eight times a year) of wheezing, runny nose, itchy watery eyes, or sneezing, parents should talk to their pediatrician.
If a fever is present with these symptoms, the likely diagnosis is infection, not an allergy.
If there is a history of food allergies in the family, we recommend that a mother breastfeed and not introduce any solid foods to a baby until he or she is at least four months old.

A LaFayette, Ga., police officer has resigned after facing allegations that he had sexual contact with a woman inside his patrol car last week, officials said.
Sgt. Michael T. Manning, the city's K-9 officer, resigned Thursday after the woman's husband issued a complaint against Manning, according to Police Chief Tommy Freeman.
The husband claimed his wife and Manning had sexual contact after she got into his car outside their house on Jackson Street between 3 and 5 a.m., Freeman said.
Manning is denying the allegations, but during the course of the department's investigation, the officer lied about the course of events, according to Freeman.
"We found out he was lying to us about whether or not he had a woman in his patrol car," Freeman said. "We gave him the choice to resign or be terminated, and he chose to resign."
Manning could not be reached Monday for comment.
The woman, whom Freeman refused to name, first told police that sexual contact had taken place, then changed her story.
Freeman said it's going to be difficult to confirm whether the complaint is true, even though three of the woman's neighbors said they saw Manning and the woman in the car together.
"We know they were in the car, but we don't know what occurred then. The allegation is unsubstantiated," Freeman said.
The nature of the relationship between Manning and the woman is unclear, Freeman said, although he had never arrested her or written any kind of criminal incident report in which she was involved.
Freeman said Manning had been with the department for eight years and had a clean record.
"We've never had a problem with him before now," Freeman said.
Freeman said he hopes to close the investigation today.

A funny thing. I was in Ft. O today and the police were out in droves pulling over everything in sight. EVERYTHING ,THAT IS, THAT WORE A SKIRT! Perhaps it might be time for a little "retraining". It is obvious these guys are doing nothing but abusing their position of authority. Who is policing the police?
K-9 cop? Seriously? He should have been more involved in the training of his doggie.Style of training used on the police dogs is crucial to ensure well behaved, courageous animals. If civic duty was a marathon race, this guy would be bringing up the rear.Entry into the academy, perhaps, should not be so easy.

God damn it I missed it. I've been dying for a upgraded laptop to replace my Acer aspire 722 that I got 2 years ago on a slick deal for $180, but is so damn slow. Cant play high quality internet movies without it stuttering all the damn time. This deal could of gave me a mid range gaming laptop with everything I need... I could of stopped using my lil bro's gaming desktop to play games and have my own :*(... I'm really upset. I don't think a deal like this will come again for a while.
BTW, the Z580 that's on right now is going for $508 and comes with a Intel 4000 graphics. I'll skip that. |

Teresa Sampson was visiting a friend. She kept calling home to check on her son. She worried when he didn't answer. Her friend's son heard about the accident on the police scanner. She raced home, heart thudding with dread. "I saw all these lights. The police were in the house." And she knew.
They buried him in a white T-shirt and blue jean shorts, the kind of thing he always wore. "I put my Black Hills gold ring on his finger," his mother said. "He always wanted it."
His friends took up a collection to buy him a headstone.
His mother strongly supports legislation for ATV safety. "They ought to outlaw ATVs," she said. "You ought to have a driver's license and have to pass a safety course to get one. You shouldn't be allowed to ride one with somebody else. If you're going to be on them, you should have to wear helmets and gloves and kneepads.
"I'm very against them. They've killed too many people."
Her life has "gone to hell" since she lost Ben, she said. Behind on house payments, she's close to losing the house she shared with him. "My son was my life. He is all I had. I had to spend Christmas at his grave."

Board Tech
Making the best boards requires a multitude of thoroughly tested shapes, different construction processes, a variety of materials to select from, and constantly refining the mix to offer CHOICE – so you can find your ultimate ride, wherever that may be.
Have it all... a proven, performance hull shape and the great flex properties of our hybrid construction. Hybrid Tech brings you a board that launches wake-to-wake AND delivers the goods for your park experience.PRECISION CNC WOOD/PVC CORE
Combination hybrid core provides the springiest, lightest flex in a core. Wood gives superior strength and flex. PVC keeps it as light as possible.LF EXCLUSIVE LIQUID RAIL
Elastomeric sidewall created as the ultimate rail bond with unsurpassed durability. Give your board the ultimate beat down and our Liquid Rail will keep it protected.M6 INSERTS
Setting the industry standard by providing the most secure binding to board interface available.BIAX GLASS LAYUP
Lightweight weave delivers the right degree of longitudinal flex, snap & response.TRIAX GLASS LAYUP
Special weave provides torsional control with just the right spring and flex.LF INTERNAL LIQUID RAIL
Elastomeric sidewall encloses the core of the board for increased durability and sidewall strength.LF EXCLUSIVE GRIND BASE
Have the ultimate in durability from our sintered base material while getting all the inherent performance of your finely tuned hull shape. Available on 59 different models for 2013.Rocker Types
Smooth, fluid carves with a high arcing pop. Not pictured but available on select wakeboards.
By smoothing out the break that defines a traditional three stage, the board becomes more predictable without sacrificing the big boosts from the added tip kick.
For a straight up pop behind the boat, and catch-free transitions in the parks, this rocker style works great in both worlds.
A board with the speed and flow of a lower rocker thru the middle, that blends into two zones of increasing curve to give the rider that extra straight-up kick off the wake without the braking effect of a traditional abrupt 3-stage bottom curve.

If you know Rails and Flex, and if you are desperately looking for a book that can guide you to Integrate Flex and Rails, then this is the book to buy.
Firstly, I would like to appreciate the authors for the sample code published in GitHub. They are ready to serve and very well organized.
It has a right combination of addressing Flex and Rails. This book can sure help you to build enterprise level Flex based application with Rails backend.
Got lots of tips, collections and recipes that you may not find easily in Internet.
Chapter 8 is very useful in getting an overview of Cairngorm and PureMVC, and the sample codes were also driven with it.
Has a detailed Chapter on
using Fluint, something that is important for developers who loves TDD/Agile.
One thing I very much liked the quality of the sample codes, it address common use-case, well structured. Best of all, the authors updates the code at their blog
While the first part of the book gives conceptual details & foundations, the second part of the book gives useful recipes. Especially Authenticating, server push with Juggernaut, File Upload and so on.
Finally, its worth buying.

Subscribe to Martha Stewart LivingIngredients
- 1 3/4 cups gingersnap crumbs, from about 1/2 batch Gingersnaps
- 1/4 cup packed dark-brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
- 4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together gingersnap crumbs, brown sugar, flour, and salt. Add butter and stir until mixture is well combined. Press some of the mixture against the side of the bowl with your fingers. If the crumbs do not hold together, add cold water, a little at a time, up to 1 tablespoon, and stir to combine.
Step 3
Press crumb mixture into a 9-inch pie plate, evenly covering the bottom and sides. Transfer to freezer and chill for 10 minutes. Place pie plate on a baking sheet and bake until crust is fragrant and set, about 10 minutes. Transfer pie to a wire rack; let cool completely.

Tasty crust but it wouldn't unstick to the pan. I ended up serving pie without crust.

Riccar Cannister 1100 [6 bags per pack]
What do you do if your vacuum cleaner isn't picking up dirt? Look for a full bag to determine if it is over half full. If you are using the Riccar Cannister 1100, buy these ultrafiltration paper vacuum bags. It is 6 times better than standard vacuum bags as it provides up to 99.7% filtration. Microscopic particles, germs, pollen spores and dust mites are no longer a hassle as they are all trapped in the inner bag lining of this bag. Show off the full beauty of your home by vacuuming regularly with your canister vacuum cleaning system from Riccar.
Vacuum bags are made up of filter paper and they help trap dust particles and allow the air to pass through. As the pores of the bags begin to get clogged (when they get full), air does not pass as freely and this can drastically reduce the efficiency of your vacuum cleaning system. It is recommended that you keep checking the bag inside your vacuum cleaner to determine the right time to change it (generally when it is 30-50% full). Visit Govacuum.com for a wide variety of vacuum cleaner bags and other accessories including belts, filters and much more. We only stock quality replacement parts and supplies so you can be assured that you are receiving genuine vacuum cleaning parts when you order with us.

The technique of mass spectrometry is used for the structural determination and quantification of a wide variety of organic and inorganic compounds. The power of mass spectrometry is unique because it provides precise measurements of molecular mass of a vast range of compounds types presented in any form. These measurements can be made with extraordinary accuracy on miniscule amounts of material.
The Pasarow Spectrometry Laboratory is jointly supported by the Departments of Chemistry and Biochemistry (College of Letters and Sciences) and Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences (Medical School) is housed in a newly constructed Molecular Sciences Building. The facility contains seven different instruments, which collectively represents a wide range of capabilities for mass measuring molecules in excess of 100,000 daltons in molecular weight.

Big banks released quarterly results this week. Morgan Stanley was a winner, while Citigroup fell short.
For the final three months of 2013, five of the six largest U.S. banks reported earnings that were better than analysts had expected. But underlying profits were hurt in several cases by legal expenses, sluggish mortgage activity and lackluster trading. Overall revenue fell in many cases.
JPMorgan Chase (JPM, Fortune 500) and Morgan Stanley (MVNR) both reported hefty legal hits that dragged profits lower. Excluding those costs and other one-time items, earnings at both banks topped analyst expectations.
Echoing comments by JPMorgan chief executive Jamie Dimon, Morgan Stanley CEO James Gorman said Friday that his bank is "continuing to address many of the legal issues from the financial crisis."

Wells Fargo (WFC, Fortune 500), the nation's largest home lender, was also hurt by weakness in the mortgage market as rising interest rates deterred borrowers.
But earnings at Bank of America (BAC, Fortune 500) came in better than expected, helped by a $2 billion profit in the company's consumer banking division, which includes branch banking and loans for small business.
Unlike its main rivals, BofA has yet to settle with the Federal Housing Finance Agency over allegations that it misled investors about the quality of mortgage-backed securities sold prior to the financial crisis. CEO Brian Moynihan seemed to allude to this by saying "work remains on past issues."
BofA and JPMorgan both benefited from an improvement in overall credit quality, which allowed them to set aside less money for losses on bad loans.
Meanwhile, earnings at Goldman Sachs (GS, Fortune 500) plunged 19% in the quarter, but still topped expectations.
Related: Earnings down at Goldman Sachs but still beat forecasts
Goldman, which was the lead banker on Twitter's (TWTR) IPO in November, said fees from stock underwriting more than doubled to $622 million.
The firm's trading business rebounded in the fourth quarter, which eased some concerns about the impact of new regulations that impose limits on certain risky trading strategies. Revenue from fixed income, commodities, and currency trading fell 15% in the fourth quarter from a year ago. But it was up 38% from the third quarter.
Despite the rebound in trading late last year, the amount of money Goldman spent on benefits, salaries and bonuses fell in 2013.
But compensation was up at Morgan Stanley from a year ago. Morgan Stanley reported a big jump in revenue from underwriting thanks to last year's robust IPO market. The company's wealth management and brokerage businesses were strong as well, due to the bull market in stocks. But revenue from fixed-income and commodities trading fell to $694 million from $811 million a year ago.
Citigroup (C, Fortune 500) was the big disappointment. The bank's earnings fell short of analysts' expectations, due largely to the slowdown in mortgage financing. Shares of Citi are down sharply for the week.

Many eye diseases and disorders are more common as we age . But advances in ophthalmology allow most people to maintain good vision as they grow older. The most common condition is the clouding of the crystalline lens of the eye, this is called a cataract. A cataract cuts down on our sight, similar to when your glasses are dirty and you cannot see through it clearly. Cataracts do not hurt the health of the eye. After consultation with your eye doctor, you may elect to have the cataract removed surgically. Another common condition is glaucoma, a disease of the optic nerve. Treatments are directed at lowering eye pressure and saving the optic nerve. Damage to the optic nerve prevents the visual message from being sent from the eye to the brain and leads to eventual blindness unless it is recognized and treated early.
When we are young, the lens of our eye is soft and flexible allowing us to focus on objects both close and far away. As we grow older the lens cannot change shape as easily and it is more difficult to read at close range. Symptoms of this condition called presbyopia usually first appear around the age of forty. Presbyopia can be easily corrected with the use of reading glasses.
The leading cause of vision loss in Americans over the age of sixty is Macular Degeneration. This is damage or breakdown of the macula, a tiny area in middle of the retina responsible for central vision. Common symptoms include blurriness, darkness in the center of vision, and straight lines that may appear wavy. Your ophthalmologist can discuss possible treatments and though a cure does not yet exist, there are many optical devices designed to help maintain a satisfying lifestyle.

This is a wonderful gate to keep our two dogs out of the 5-year old grandson's room. He can leave his toys and not worry anymore that they will be mistaken for dog toys and chewed beyond recognition. He is able to easily open and close the gate himself, and comments that the gate makes his room "cozy".

Midwife Jodilyn Owen on the job.
Twelve years ago, Jodilyn Owen was invited by her sister-in-law to her nephew's birth as a "pseudo-doula" to boss her older brother around. "The goal was to help him be involved in the way that he could," she said. "I fell in love with being on that end of the bed, so to speak." She didn't know that a doula was an actual job until her husband, Rabbi Benjy Owen, heard a story on NPR. "He called me to tell me that people get paid for this thing I was running all over the neighborhood doing," she said. Owen is now phasing out her doula services in order to devote her time to midwifery and running the Essential Birth and Family Center, which she opened earlier this year in Seattle's Seward Park neighborhood. And her book, "The Essential Homebirth Guide" (Simon and Schuster, 2012) co-authored with colleague Jane Drichta, has already sold out of its first printing and holds a five-star rating on Amazon. "Women read it and go to bed happy," Owen said of the response. "It's not about fear." Owen began training as a midwife with the Ancient Art Midwifery Institute in 2007. "I got exhausted from witnessing everything and being able to do nothing," she said. "What I was seeing was a lot of information being pumped into people and a lot of decisions being made without really true, informed consent on behalf of parents, instead of empowering them to use their own knowledge about themselves and their babies to move forward in their pregnancy and birth process." Her training, which included obstetrical emergencies and understanding infant personalities, took her to the impoverished South Pacific island of Vanuatu, where she gained the "muscle memory" to deal with newborn resuscitation and other life-threatening situations. But once Owen was nationally certified as a midwife, she hit a wall. Licensure in Washington State is a highly bureaucratic, slow process, even though midwifery care saves the state millions of dollars per budget cycle, she explained. So she set out to accomplish her other goal. "I've always had this dream of creating a community gathering place for mothers and babies and families," she said. The Essential Birth and Family Center is the result of hundreds of hours of conversations with South End healthcare professionals. The small building located next to the Seattle Kollel rents space to practitioners offering acupuncture, massage, lactation support, nutritional counseling, doula care, and craniosacral therapy, as well as prenatal classes, parent support groups, infant and child CPR, babysitting classes, and more. Girl Sense, which the center developed and helps girls 8-9 years old channel self-awareness and manage stress, has become so popular it's being introduced in Israel, Uganda, and other parts of the U.S. this year. In addition, Owen feels strongly about empowering immigrant and minority communities in Rainier Valley. "Midwifery is a white profession," Owen explained. It's not easy for new immigrant midwives, who possibly serviced their entire communities back in Ethiopia or Somalia, to navigate the licensure or healthcare systems here. "Cultural competency matters in birth," Owen said. For new immigrants, "every time they turn around, something crazy is in front of them." After a long wait and some pressure on the system, Owen did receive her license to practice midwifery last fall. Now one of her activities is attending births with an unlicensed immigrant midwife from Ethiopia, so the midwife can still serve her community in some way. She's also helping the woman obtain her license. "They're still the women that women bring their babies to," said Owen. "Anything I can do to grow the midwifery community, I'm really into." Yet another thing Owen has spearheaded to grow midwifery care is a partnership with Swedish Hospital. Women who want fewer tests, longer prenatal sessions (up to an hour), whole-body care, and perhaps a shorter drive from their South End locations — but still prefer a hospital birth — can receive midwifery prenatal care through the center. They meet with physicians once per trimester and develop a relationship with the hospital staff. "You're not just a woman in a hospital gown," said Owen. "You're somebody that they know…. It's old school obstetrics." There is a cost savings as well for the expecting parents and their insurance companies. Hospital birth costs vary — according to a GroupHealth representative, a vaginal birth with no interventions costs $15,780 and a cesarean with a three-day stay, prescriptions and labs bills at $24,532 — so the hospital doesn't necessarily lose anything by relinquishing prenatal care. Homebirths and birth-center births can often cost less than $3,000, with prenatal care included. "I've always believed women are safest where they feel safest," Owen said. "It's about meeting women where they're at." In spite of the excitement around bringing life into the world and creating a network of natural birth supporters, Owen's personal life has presented challenges to her work. A few years ago, she lost one of her own children to cancer. "We really trust in mothers and babies and birth," she reflected. "It works. People get pregnant and they stay pregnant and their babies usually live. That's a very fundamental part of midwifery practice. So for me, coming into Sam's illness was very shocking because it was the first time… 'Oh, it doesn't always work.' "If it doesn't always work — and will it ever work, and how can I trust that process again? — was part of my healing." Owen took a year off from midwifery school to grieve with her family. "You just have to wake up and see it's a new day one time. And then you do it again. And before you know it, time has gone by," she said. "We have this question, what will we do with this day? We would look at each day with this question." Owen's work with babies and mothers helped her through the grieving process and reemerged as her calling. "From that first prenatal visit and that first birth, I knew, I miss this, and this is something that feeds my soul," she said. "I want to be living, even with this tremendous loss in our lives. The way for me to do that was to follow my passion. I really wanted to show my kids that we must live. We must live." Owen's lifelong connection to Seattle's Jewish community also informs her work. She reflected on a recent trip to Rhodes, Greece, with her family. "I saw a tombstone for a woman who was taken away by the Nazis and on her stone all of her children are listed by name and age on the day they were taken. There were six children — the youngest of which was only one week old. It was standing there that I felt my Jewish connection to what it means to usher in and protect life," she said. "At a week, everything is so tender and new. That woman's life and death woke something up in me about the important role of the midwife in our community, and it is an honor to fulfill that role."

My name is Justine and I am the sole operator of this business. I am in my late 20s and up until now I have been working in a variety of fields that will culminate to the success of Justine Rose.
I started my higher education in fine arts, exploring my creativity. I then moved to and finished a public communications degree. I worked in a reputable Sydney events management company and enjoyed organising large-scale art and social events.
Somewhere amongst this I completed my floristry training. I found floristry to be a natural talent. I then worked at some of Sydney's most reputable florists for 5 years. For half of this time I managed a beautiful and very busy inner city store, which challenged and extended my floristry skills.
Justine Rose will join together my floristry talent and experience, along with my event organisation skills. Working for myself means I can guarantee your happiness with any work I do for you. Your needs will always be my first priority.
I am so excited to work with you!
