Dannii Minogue joined big sister Kylie Minogue on the red carpet for the Brit Awards 2014 held at the O2 Arena in London this evening (February 19).
Looking breath-taking in a beautifully constructed J'Aton Couture one-shoulder dress emphasized with lace inserts and swirling details at the hips, I can't help but feel like this look was worthy of a grander occasion; like collecting an OBE from the Queen at Buckingham Palace.
Actually, considering Jessie J's look, perhaps this classy outing was just what this event needed.
Black Gucci patent leather pumps, a chic updo and a red nail/lip combo rounded out her look.

Reyes' fortune likely to turn around
PROTRADE suggests starter's 'luck' at all-time low
Currently 0-7 with a 5.84 ERA, it would be easy to say that Cardinals starter Anthony Reyes has endured a rough beginning to 2007. Touted in the preseason by scouts and analysts alike as a prime candidate for a breakout -- following an impressive showing in St. Louis' championship run -- it would now seem that some of these high expectations were misplaced.The thing is, there's a lot to like about Reyes' statistical profile. In fact, despite his lack of success so far in 2007, he's probably the best bet among St. Louis hurlers going forward. The fact of the matter is that he's just been one of the most unlucky pitchers in the game through May 20. After all, a quick perusal of Reyes' performance isn't likely to set off any red flags. In 44 innings, he's racked up 35 strikeouts, or more than seven for every nine innings on the mound. He's also improved his control from last season, walking just 13 hitters while hitting two. And it's not like he's been touched with a case of gopher-itis, either -- in fact, his five home runs allowed are right in line with the league average. What's more, he's become a more robust ground ball pitcher over time. This has helped him induce weaker contact from opposing hitters, who have put up just a .427 slugging percentage this season. And it's not as if he's been the victim of too many bad bounces -- that hitters are reaching base 29 percent of the time they put the ball in play is on the low side for NL starters. No, Reyes currently sports the worst record among NL starters and the 15th-highest ERA (minimum 15 IP) because of one reason: nearly half the runners who reach base against him are scoring. His Strand Rate is a league-low 54 percent. For those unfamiliar with the concept, Strand Rate is yet another way that analysts -- like those handsome devils at PROTRADE.com -- can measure "luck" on a macro level. And let's just say that Reyes isn't receiving much of it. After all, thanks to the greater proliferation of play-by-play data, we now know that, across the board, pitchers tend to allow about one-third of all baserunners to score. This is obviously the result of many factors -- how well a pitcher performs with runners on base, how sure-handed his fielders are, and certainly how dependable a bullpen is when inheriting runners -- but the surprising fact is how stable this number can be over time. Well, actually, that's not true: the other surprising fact is how greatly this number can vary in a given year for some unlucky pitchers, inflating their ERA past what their peripheral numbers would indicate it "should" be. For instance, let's compare Pitcher A and Pitcher B here (who are, for the record, real people, with their names protected in order to preserve their innocence), just like Rob Neyer used to do: Pitcher A: 7.05 K/9, 2.62 BB/9, 2.69 K/BB, 1.01 HR/9, .289 BABIP, 5.84 ERA
Pitcher B: 7.56 K/9, 2.81 BB/9, 2.69 K/BB, 1.56 HR/9, .298 BABIP, 4.10 ERA The similarities between these two hurlers should be obvious. In fact, their strikeout-to-walk ratios are identical in a like number of innings, and they're both allowing batters to reach base at a comparable rate -- facts that should result, in most cases, in ERAs that fall in the same ballpark. Unfortunately for Pitcher A, that ballpark seems to be Coors Field while Pitcher B gets Dodger Stadium: the latter hurler has allowed 30 percent fewer runs this season, all told, without doing much more (and in point of fact, a little less) to limit opposing offenses.
The difference between them? Pitcher B -- Chicago White Sox starter John Danks -- has stranded nearly 80 percent of all baserunners, allowing just 20.4 percent of them to score this season. Pitcher A, on the other hand -- Reyes -- has seen 46 percent of them cross home plate.How significant is Reyes' 54 percent figure? Let's just put it this way: since PROTRADE started collecting this data in 2002, the lowest single-season mark belongs to Derek Lowe in 2004, when he stranded just 58.5 percent of baserunners. But considering the relatively tight grouping of league-wide Strand Rates -- it's usually about 20 points that separates the highest number from the lowest -- it should be safe to say that Reyes' rate is about as low as you'll ever see, even in a small sample of innings. Oh, and for the record, Lowe's season ERA for 2004? Try 5.42. And his ERA numbers since that season: would you believe 3.61, 3.63 and 3.84, with average Strand Rates in every one, despite similar walk and strikeout numbers? So while there's no denying that Reyes looks like something other than a success so far in 2007, it would be a mistake to shower him with too much of the blame. After all, he's done everything in his power to keep runners off the bases -- that they're scoring at such an inordinately high rate is something that's a little beyond his control.

This game is a mismatch, plain and simple.
The Vikings have a lot of issues on their team right now. They've gone to the rookie quarterback, the offensive line is coming off its worst game and is dealing with injuries, and the Bears exposed the secondary last week.
Meanwhile, the Packers are rolling on all cylinders. Aaron Rodgers is playing as well as quarterbacks can play the position, his receivers always seem like they're open and the defense got back on track last week against the lowly Rams.
I foresee the Packers seeking out and exploiting Cedric Griffin in coverage, as well as the rest of the Vikings' depleted secondary, and using Jermichael Finley to attack E.J. Henderson down the middle of the cover-2. The best chance for the Vikings on defense is for Jared Allen and Brian Robison to get pressure on Rodgers and (the tough part) bringing him down for sacks.
On offense, a rookie quarterback going up against the complex schemes of Dom Capers and the Packers' defense does not sound like a recipe for success. With backup C Joe Berger likely to get the start for the injured John Sullivan, look for NT B.J. Raji to dominate in the middle and stuff Adrian Peterson. Christian Ponder, in 3rd-and-long situations, against the exotic blitzes and unorthodox fronts of the Packers, will not do well.
It will be a long day in the dome for the Vikings.
Packers 34, Vikings 13
Season record: 1-2

The U.S. National Security Agency has repeatedly tried to compromise Tor, the government-funded online anonymity tool, but has had little success, according to a new report in the U.K.'s Guardian.
The NSA has tried multiple strategies for defeating Tor, with its most successful method focused on attacking vulnerable software on users' computers, including the Firefox browser, according to the report, published Friday. In the Firefox attack, NSA agents have been able to gain "full control" of targets' computers, said the report, citing documents given to the Guardian by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden.
[ Learn how to protect your systems with Roger Grimes' Security Adviser blog and Security Central newsletter, both from InfoWorld. ]
NSA documents provided by Snowden, which the Guardian began publishing in June, say the agency is collecting bulk phone records in the U.S. as well as Internet communications overseas.
But in many cases, the NSA has been frustrated in its efforts to target Tor users, an irony because the open-source project is largely funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, the NSA's parent agency, and the U.S. Department of State.
"We will never be able to de-anonymize all Tor users all the time," according to one NSA document quoted by the Guardian. "With manual analysis we can de-anonymize a very small fraction of Tor users." The NSA has had "no success de-anonymizing a user in response" to a specific request, the document said.
Tor is "the king of high-secure, low-latency internet anonymity," the report quotes another NSA document as saying.
Tor routes Internet traffic through a number of relays as a way to keep communications anonymous. The State Department promotes the software to activists in countries with strong censorship regimes, including Iran and China.
An NSA spokeswoman referred a request for comments on the story to a previous statement from the agency:
"In carrying out its signals intelligence mission, NSA collects only those communications that it is authorized by law to collect for valid foreign intelligence and counterintelligence purposes, regardless of the technical means used by those targets or the means by which they may attempt to conceal their communications. ... It should hardly be surprising that our intelligence agencies seek ways to counteract targets' use of technologies to hide their communications.
"Throughout history, nations have used various methods to protect their secrets, and today terrorists, cybercriminals, human traffickers and others use technology to hide their activities," the statement continued. "Our intelligence community would not be doing its job if we did not try to counter that."
NSA efforts to compromise "anonymous online communication" is justified, U.S. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper said in a statement released late Friday.
News articles on the NSA's Tor efforts "fail to make clear that the intelligence community's interest in online anonymity services and other online communication and networking tools is based on the undeniable fact that these are the tools our adversaries use to communicate and coordinate attacks against the United States and our allies," Clapper said. "The articles fail to mention that the intelligence community is only interested in communication related to valid foreign intelligence and counterintelligence purposes and that we operate within a strict legal framework that prohibits accessing information related to the innocent online activities of U.S. citizens."

Scientists at the Health Protection Agency are to investigate the extent to which people are being exposed to several chemicals found in the environment.
As well as researching the average level of mercury found in people's hair, experts at the HPA will be investigating the average level of cadmium, phthalates and tobacco smoke chemicals found in people's urine in the UK.
The results could help scientists to pinpoint areas where people are being exposed to relatively high levels of the chemicals.
The Health Protection Agency (HPA) is leading the UK part of the project, known as DEMOCOPHES, which includes studies in 15 other European countries.
Dr Ovnair Sepai of the HPA said: "We are recruiting 120 volunteer mothers and children to take part in this UK pilot study. By comparing results from each country we will be able to reveal the baseline of average exposure to the chemicals for people in Europe. Future research could then determine areas of higher than average exposure, and help deliver our long term objective to find out if these pollutants are affecting people's health."
The project will build on another project, known as COPHES, which involves 27 European countries, and aims to establish a consistent way of measuring chemicals found in hair and body fluids.

The Word: Stephen King reverses himself, bashes 'Hunger Games'
I've read "The Hunger Games" so many times that I've even pretty much memorized the critical blurbs on the cover. The most prominent among them is from Suzanne Collins' fellow thriller novelist, Stephen King: "A violent, jarring speed trap of a novel."
That comes from a glowing review he wrote for Entertainment Weekly of the first book in the trilogy when it came out. Apparently, King doesn't remember the praise he heaped on it as well as I do: He now claims it left him cold.
Calling "Twilight" and books like it "tweenager porn," King told the Guardian, "I read 'Twilight' and didn't feel any urge to go on with her. I read 'The Hunger Games' and didn't feel an urge to go on. It's not unlike 'The Running Man,' which is about a game where people are actually killed and people are watching: a satire on reality TV."
The "Running Man" thing is fair. What's maybe less fair: claiming not to like a book that has praise from you actually on its cover. Make up your mind, King.

Here is an easy way to display all of those magnificent art creations your kids make.
These clips are from the Dollar Tree:
We had some leftover trim from finishing our basement, so we spray painted it, then attached the clips with E6000, a super duty glue that you all clued me in on. (thank you!) Let them sit overnight to dry. Then, we just nailed them up and attached the artwork.
Next, we've got to do something about that table & chairs and find a fun, funky lamp, but this is progress! Wahooooo!

The Kingdom of Hawaii issued copper cents in 1847 and silver dimes, quarters, half dollars, and dollars in 1883. These coins lost their legal tender status in 1900 when Hawaii became a U.S. territory.
Private tokens were also struck starting in 1860 and circulated widely until the end of the century.
Very well struck and lustrous with quite a bit of mint red!
This was the first official coin issued by the Kingdom of Hawaii. A portrait of King Kamehameha III is on the obverse and only 100,000 were minted. This example is very attractive with considerable mint red and very few marks.
Well struck with outstanding lustrous surfaces and considerable mint red. Only 100,000 minted with many turned in to the banks when Hawaii became a territory in 1900. Many of the remaining coins have corroded surfaces. This example is particularly nice and problem-free.
Nicely toned with sharp detail.
Battleship gray with hints of luster underneath.
Stunning blue-gold toning on this very high quality coin. Halves in high grade are truly scarce with only 4 coins grading higher at NGC than this beauty!
Beautiful toning, a great strike, and intensely lustrous. Very nice!

You can't go wrong with either SanDisk or Lexar for CF cards (I own several of both brands). Having said that if you can afford to I'd highly recommend investing in the fastest cards you can (preferably the Lexar 1000x... and it looks like B&H has a pair of Lexar 1000x 16GB cards on sale currently for under $150) as you'll appreciate their ability to quickly clear the camera's buffer.
yeah that's what i was thinking regarding the buffer.
presumably a fast card is required for video, is that right?
i'm in england so the B&H sale won't help me unfortunately.
shooting in raw how many shots 'roughly speaking' would i fit on a 16GB. Maybe 2x16GB is preferable to a 32GB?
depends on what your shooting! For weddings I generally go with mRAW ---a 16 GB card can do about 800 or so at mRAW...closer to 500 if you go full sizred RAW, and closer to 1000 if you go sRAW (depends on what your shooting too, more texture, colors, detail in the shot leads to larger file size).
I tend to prefer Sandisk, with lexar being my second choice. I have borrowed kingston cards at times and gotten errors (had to reformat the cards, they worked after that but having to reformat doesn't give me confidence!!!)

However, the group opted to take another hiatus during the decade's latter half, and Henley continued working on his fourth solo album, finally issued in mid-2000 under the title Inside Job. He then resumed working with the Eagles, contributing to the band's new studio album (2007's multi-platinum effort Long Road Out of Eden) and touring heavily in support of the project. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine, Rovi

Legal Ethics
U of C Law Grad Accused of Submitting Phony Grades to Sidley Austin
Posted May 20, 2008 3:30 PM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
Updated: A lawyer who attended the University of Chicago Law School has been accused in an ethics complaint of lying about his grades when he applied for a summer position at Sidley Austin.
Loren Elliotte Friedman is accused in a complaint filed May 6 by the Illinois Attorney Registration and Disciplinary Commission. He was listed as an associate at Curtis, Mallet-Prevost, Colt & Mosle in New York on the firm's website earlier Tuesday, but his name was removed by the afternoon.
Joseph Pizzurro, managing partner of Curtis Mallet-Prevost, told ABAJournal.com that Friedman, a bankruptcy associate, disclosed the bar complaint to the law firm on Friday and submitted his resignation.
The complaint says Friedman altered transcripts of his law school grades in 20 classes to reflect better grades than he received. Friedman worked at Sidley Austin the summer of 2002, and the firm extended an employment offer for him to begin work as an associate in 2003.
The complaint also alleges that Friedman failed to reveal he flunked out of medical school in his application to law school, and that he failed to disclose the altered law school transcripts in his bar application.
Friedman did not accept the full-time job offer with Sidley Austin, said his lawyer, George Collins. He said the bar is accusing Friedman of altering his grades to obtain the summer job, "and then he was offered a law job as a result of his good work as a summer associate." Sidley Austin was the source of the complaint to the Illinois bar, he said.
Collins is preparing an answer to the bar complaint and said he could not comment on its contents at this time.
Pizzurro said he was shocked to learn of the ethics complaint. "I can't say that this is something that anybody would have foreseen," he said.
Pizzurro said he does not know if Friedman's grades were altered in his application with Curtis Mallet-Prevost, but the law firm generally does not check the accuracy of law school transcripts. "We generally will take it at face value if someone submits what looks like an authentic transcript," he said.
Curtis Mallet-Prevost performs the checks done by most law firms: It makes sure a lawyer is a bar member in good standing, and it checks references, according to Pizzurro.
When asked if Curtis Mallet-Prevost would change its procedures because of the allegations, Pizzurro replied, "We're going to have to give that some thought."
Representatives of Sidley Austin did not return e-mails or phone calls.
The Legal Profession Blog reported on the allegations by the Illinois ARDC in a post entitled "Trifecta Alleged."
Updated at 7 p.m. on 5/20/2008 to incorporate comments by Joseph Pizzurro and at 9:15 a.m. on 5/21/2008 to include comments by George Collins.

Swallowing involves chewing food and moving it into the back of the mouth to transport it down the esophagus, the tube that moves food to the stomach.
Difficulty with swallowing is the feeling that food or liquid is stuck in the throat or at any point before the food enters the stomach. This problem is also called dysphagia.
Swallowing is a complex act. Many nerves work in a fine balance to control how the muscles of the mouth, throat, and esophagus work together. Much of swallowing occurs without you being aware of what you are doing.
A brain or nerve disorder can alter this fine balance in the muscles of the mouth and throat.
Stress or anxiety may cause some people to feel tightness in the throat, or feel as if something is stuck in the throat. This is called globus hystericus.
Problems that involve the esophagus often cause swallowing problems, including:
Chest pain, the feeling of food stuck in the throat, or heaviness or pressure in the neck or upper or lower chest may be present, as well as:
You may have problems swallowing with any eating or drinking, or only with certain types of foods or liquids. Difficulty eating very hot or cold foods, dry crackers or bread, meat, or chicken may be an early sign of swallowing problems.
Your doctor will order tests to identify problems, such as:
A test called upper endoscopy
(EGD) is often done.
Other tests may include:
Blood tests may be needed to identify certain disorders that can cause swallowing problems.
The treatment for your swallowing problem depends on the cause.
It is important to learn how to eat and drink safely. Not swallowing correctly may lead to choking or breathing food or liquid into your main airway. This can lead to pneumonia.
Managing swallowing problems at home
is an important step if the problem does not go away.
Medicines that may be used depend on the cause, and may include:
Procedures and surgeries that may be used include:
Call your health care provider if swallowing problems do not improve after a few days, or they come and go.
Call your doctor right away if:

My wife and I recently stayed with our two children, ages 3 and 1. My oldest son used the second bedroom, and the master bedroom was large enough to hold a pack and play for our youngest (they are on different sleep schedules, so separating them allowed them each to sleep when they needed. We were in town to visit family who live nearby. The Grandparents would come visit with us during the day, eat meals, etc. My father-in-law uses a walker, and it was very easy for him to come into/out of the condo. All the furniture was comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked, and the whole place was very clean. The neighborhood felt very safe, and there are two different pools that are about a 5-minute walk from the condo. It is also very close to a grocery store and a Target to get supplies. Ray, the owner was great to deal with, and made the whole process easy. The only minor complaint I have is that when we arrived, one of the neighbors had parked in our parking spot, but after speaking with the neighbors, it was all taken care of. We hope to stay again.
Owner is very accommodating, has replaced living room furniture with more comfortable chairs and a sleeper couch, all in leather, new wall hangings, a new flat screen TV that includes cable and there is internet service. Some floor coverings were replaced, there is a new heat pump and water heater and the location is excellent for our needs, including proximity of the heated pools. It is convenient to shopping, entertainment, restaurants, golf courses and easy access to roadways.

Giants closer Brian Wilson is out for the season and will likely have Tommy John surgery for the second time in his career, he confirmed to CSN Bay Area's Andrew Baggarly.
"The likelihood is, yeah the season's over with," said Wilson. "I'll be getting a couple more opinions but we all know what structural damage is. The likelihood of me throwing again this year is minimal."
Baggarly noted that Wilson was in good spirits Sunday morning, which was clear from the choice Wilson quotes Baggarly tweeted earlier, compiled below:
"It's a year. No big deal. If I plan on playing forever, then this is a small percentage of my career. ... I don't think (bullpen is) going to falter. I think we're going to take the West no matter what, whether I'm here or not. ... By no stretch of the [imagination] is my journey over. This is a mild bump in my road. Nothing has been easy when I've pitched or lived."
(More: Read full transcript of Wilson interview)
Wilson has been the Giants full-time closer since 2008, and saved 48 games for San Francisco in 2010. With Wilson out, manager Bruce Bochy will rely on a closer-by-committee system with relievers Sergio Romo, Santiago Casilla, and Javier Lopez.

i have to recreate a signed sis file within my app.
I m able to do this for the unsigned sis file, But when i include the "key" and "certificate" file in the package file, then the size of my app-created sis file is some bytes less (128 byte) from the original sis file. And when i try to install the application from my app-created sis file, the installer says "security error".

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - Long before Ben Lupo's current indictment on a criminal charge of violating the federal Clean Water Act, the owner of D&L Energy had other legal troubles.
Attorneys representing a number of companies owned by Lupo met with a visiting judge on Friday, at the Mahoning County courthouse.
At the center of the discussion was the civil suit filed in 2011 by a business partner of Lupo's. An attorney for Susan Faith says she had concerns about how Lupo was running the companies.
Attorney David Bertsch, who represents Lupo in this case, says there are a number of issues involved that spreads across a whole host of other companies owned by Lupo and Faith.
"For lack of a better word, it's somewhat of a corporate divorce where we're trying to split this up between the two of them," Bertsch says. "There are accusations and allegations back and forth including breach of contract on the part of each of them."
In an unrelated criminal case, Lupo, his employee Michael Guesman and Lupo's company Hardrock Excavating LLC face federal charges for dumping drilling waste into a sewer drain that made it's way into the Mahoning River.

After a quick lunch our rooms were ready for us drop off our carry on bags.
We had a cove balcony room and loved it. We will stay again in a cove balcony room when they are available.
Our only disappointment on this entire cruise was the lack of energy from the cruise director. When you did see him he brought no energy or excitment with him.
We had 2 great at sea days. My wife loves to read and i love to people watch.
Cozumel -- We booked the Isla Passion by Twister. this was our 2nd time of doing this and loved it.
Belize -- Had a great day of snorkeling at the Barrier Reef and then spending time on Bannister Island.
Isla Roatan -- Tabyana Beach was beautiful. The day started out with rain but by mid morning it was gone.
Costa Maya -- Did not have much time here as we left at 2:00pm. We did get some shopping in for the grand kids.
The comedy shows were great and the show, Dancing in the Street, was fantastic.
Disembarkation -- again very quick and painless as we were in our van leaving the port before 8:30am.

CATEGORIES Box Office, Hold the 'Fone, Box Office Predictions, Features, UK Box Office, Cinematical, UK Box OfficeIt's January, and that means we've entered the dog days of moviegoing. Studios release blockbusters in the summer and Oscar contenders at the end of the year, leaving poor li'l January, February, March and April with a bunch of movies that fit in neither category -- that is, horror flicks and films that, to put it kindly, sort of suck. (OK, that wasn't kind.)
In 2006, for example, the lowest-earning film of the year -- in fact, of all time -- was a thriller called 'Zyzzyx,' which co-starred Katherine Heigl (Izzie on 'Grey's Anatomy') and earned a grand total of ... $30. Yes, $30. I believe that covers the director, his wife and an insomniac who wandered in by mistake, looking for a nap. It opened in February. See my point? Anyway, despite that, there are still some gems to be found before we hit the summer. We'll keep our fingers crossed.
'Freedom Writers': Speaking of 'Grey's Anatomy,' here's a movie that co-stars Patrick Dempsey, known to viewers everywhere as McDreamy. He plays the husband of Hilary Swank's character, a do-gooder teacher who comes to the inner city to do some good. Wait a minute, haven't we seen this movie before? Oh, my mistake. That was 'Dangerous Minds.' And about a million other movies. To its credit, the movie's getting decent reviews, and Hilary's got those two Oscars. I just don't know whether she's a big enough name to headline this type of movie successfully, particularly in such a crowded genre.
'Happily N'Ever After': The only family movie opening this weekend, 'Happily N'Ever After' would seem to have the best chance of knocking 'Night at the Museum' from its No. 1 perch. It's an animated fairy tale -- a comic retelling of 'Cinderella' -- starring real-life married couple Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. as Cinderella and Rick, her dishwasher best friend who's secretly in love with her. The prince, interestingly enough (who isn't necessarily the good guy in this movie), is named Prince Humperdink, presumably in a nod to one of my all-time favorite movies, 'The Princess Bride.' At any rate, kids and parents who've already seen 'Museum' and 'Happy Feet' will probably want to give this a chance, though the fact that this movie is opening in January and not peak holiday time is a little suspect, methinks.
'Children of Men': Already showing in limited release but opening wide now is Alfonso Cuarón's ('Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban,' 'Y Tu Mamá También') futuristic thriller, starring Clive Owen and Julianne Moore, about a world in which women can no longer give birth to children. I wasn't able to catch a screening of this one, but I can't wait to see it. It's gotten great reviews and has made plenty of Best of 2006 lists; in addition, my colleague Tommy says it has "the coolest sequence of the year": a 10-minute, uninterrupted tracking shot in which Owen, running through a war zone, ducks in and out of buildings and buses. This is the highest quality film going wide this week -- and as a fan of Cuaron's, I'm rooting for it to do well. It's not the most accessible film, but word of mouth is a powerful thing.
Also of note: Cedric the Entertainer's 'Code Name: The Cleaner' comes out this weekend. Shouldn't make the top five, but who knows, stranger things have happened. Cedric's got his peeps. Also, it co-stars Lucy Liu and Nicollette Sheridan. Um, that's pretty much all I have to say about this one.
Deadline: Saturday at noon. You've got 24 hours. Go.
1. Night at the Museum
2. The Pursuit of Happyness
3. Dreamgirls
4. Happily N'Ever After
5. Children of Men

If the thoughts you find here feel right for you, they probably are right for you. Breastfeeding carries with it a whole series of built-in instincts, and it makes sense to listen to them. These pages may help you hear yourself.
Breastfeeding is about community. In the past, women learned it from infancy. They chatted with other mothers, learned from other mothers –by seeing what they liked and what they didn't like – and they helped one another. They absolutely didn't learn breastfeeding from a book… or from a website!
Find yourself a group of real, live, non-internet mothers to learn from and to learn with. La Leche League is one of the easiest groups to find and one of the longest-running, though there are others.
Playgroups of breastfeeding mothers are another important resource – one that meets more often than just once a month. Playgroups are the glue that holds a mother together, and you will stay friends with those women for decades.
Breastfeeding is nothing fancier than making lunch for your child. Maybe you need a specialist's help to do that – maybe something makes it hard for you to open the jar, for instance – but mostly you just need to see other mothers, all making lunch in different ways, from different ingredients, all feeding their children, as mothers always have.Enjoy!
Some other resources
Remember – whatever you find should feel right for your situation.
