Any one else concerend with putting on too much weight?
Started by Krunchie29 , Nov 20 2012 04:36 PM

Posted 20 November 2012 - 04:36 PM
Hi there ladies
as happy as I am be pregnant for our first, I am concerned about putting on too much weight.
Im not exactly obese, but I am in the overweight category (162cm/5ft 4inches and about 79kg)
this is the heaveist I have ever been, put on a lot of weight in the last two years due to stresses of conceiving, surgery. IVF etc, as I am an emotional eater.
Now, i am fully aware that I will put on weight and I am not worried about that, its the hitting 100kg that worries me, putting on too much weight that leads to gestational diabetes, larger babies and babies with a higher risk of diabetes themselves (DH has type 1 diabetes and while its not been proved to be herediarty (sp?) there are links) so i want to avoid it as much as i can!
So, the point of this post was not to whinge and be paranoid, but to ask what are you doing to ensure you dont put on too much...
I am going to try to stick to logging my food intake with myfitness pal so if it does start to stack on I can attempt to see how/where/why.
I will start pregnancy yoga next year but also keep up my current gym classes but make sure I go regularly and not haphazardly!
I am going to dig out my heart monitor and make sure my heart rate doesnt get too high
but also, have a good talk with my clinic/obs/GP/midwife or whoever about my concerns and get their advice
does any returning mummies have advice on what they did well/wish they had done last time etc.?
Posted 20 November 2012 - 06:24 PM
Last time once I got past being sick I made up for it by literally eating for 2, I won't be doing that this time! I also have a really bad soft spot for chocolate and ice cream, so am going to consciously NOT eat it everyday this time round!! As long as you eat sensibly and continue to do some exercise you should be fine.
Posted 20 November 2012 - 06:56 PM
I'm due with my first in July, and having seen a couple of friends pile on the weight with their firsts (each now about 3 months old), I'm determined not to do that!
I'm determined not to make the excuse that I'm 'eating for two', and not to give in to eating ice-cream/chocolate every day too (I'm totally addicted to ice-cream!!!).
I'm going into this thinking that I'm only going to eat what I want bubba to eat - so lots of fruit/veggies, and only the occasional treat. I'm also planning to go to the gym regularly, and work with a personal trainer every few weeks (I'm definitely not a gym-junkie, I just want to be fit/healthy for labour!).
Good luck with it Krunchie!!
Posted 21 November 2012 - 07:01 AM
I'm planning on going to see a nutritionist next week to get an eating plan and advice - so I can get the proper nutrients and I don't want to pack on the weight. I'm almost 9 weeks now and the reason I haven't been yet is at the moment i'm so sick that the only things I can hold down are toast, scrambled eggs and mac & cheese. I gained about 3 kilos very early but it's tapered off a little with morning sickness.
Posted 21 November 2012 - 10:18 AM
cut down on gluten, sugar and lactose. Don't have to 100% cut it out but the weight falls off you even tho not doing any exercise.
I'm not doing it as strict as my dh but at home we have cut out 95% gluten, use soy milk (tho we still have normal cheese and butter) and have reduced impulse buying chocolate, sweet biscuits etc.
The weight has fallen off dh - not that he needed to lose weight and I am not stacking on the weight this pregnancy like I did with the last 2.
We don't really worry when we're out about gluten/sugar/milk etc just have whatever. I still like to have toast/bread every now and then but i don't have it 2-4 times a day like I used to.
Also up the intake of fresh fruit and veg
Posted 27 November 2012 - 08:24 AM
I eat paleo normally and lost weight easily post #1 and haven't put on any so far due to morning sickness. Could you consider something like that?
Posted 10 December 2012 - 09:04 AM
10 weeks - almost Nil weight gain
sensible eating, eating just like before I got pregnant lots of water no sugary drinks
still continuing active lifestyle though doing it a bit less than before - jog 2 x a week, walk everyday, aerobics everyday and play sports once a week.
My OB said it is alright to continue being active as long as I'm not having cramps or bleeding, she said it is really good for me for the pregnancy.

In my municipal setting, we are constantly confronted with graffiti. I have tried many, many products, but I have found one that meets my requirements for speed, efficiency, and environmental regulations.
Apply a coat of paint remover. Cover with a sheet of black plastic to increase the temperature inside the shroud, helping the active ingredients in the paint remover. Allow to dwell overnight. Remove the plastic sheet. Use a plastic or wire brush to scrub the overspray. Wipe off most of the paint remover. Powers wash at a pressure that will not damage the bricks. Contain the power washing run-off.
Jack Seeney of Brichem on
May 5, 2014:
I suggest spraying on a colored, moisture-curing polysiloxane anti-graffiti coating, which can be applied over tagged surfaces. In the future, I suggest using either the clear or colored version of this permanent anti-graffiti coating. Then any tags applied over the anti-graffiti coating can be removed with a cold water wash. No harsh chemicals are required!

Mall Santa Takes Adorable Photo With Sleeping Baby
Here's your daily dose of cute -- Santa pretending to sleep for a picture with a sleeping baby.
Here's your daily dose of cute -- Santa pretending to sleep for a picture with a sleeping baby.
64 percent of homeowners say they are going to put up Christmas decorations this holiday season. Of course "decorations" can be anything from a simple candle in the window to a blinding and all-encompassing collection of flashing lights.
No matter what the holiday, we always love getting extra festive. It's not like we need an excuse to wear awful Christmas sweaters or take part in a harmless snowman prank, but doing that stuff during the season makes us look a little less crazy. The season also provides the perfect excuse to go way overboard in the decorating department.
We know that Santa fills "stockings hung by the chimney with care", but sometimes he gets a little help from us. I don't know about you, but it seems to me that it's ten times more difficult to figure out what to fill those stockings with, rather than the bigger presents under the tree. Here's some help.
Here's a little video to get you into the spirit of Christmas, if you're kind of trampy. Nate, Caitlin and Stuart set up shop on the campus of Brigham Young University to trick as many people as possible into kissing them by using a sprig of renegade mistletoe that drops down at a moment's notice. They are braver than we -- the whole time we watched this all we could think was "Herpes! Herpes! Herpes alert!"
If you were at FrogFest this past summer, you may remember Ethan Harris who sang the National Anthem. As a holiday treat, he's recorded an acoustic version of 'O Holy Night' and shared it on our Facebook page to wish us all a blessed holiday season. Love his dad's comment. Can you tell he's a proud papa?
The flower most associated with the Christmas season is the Poinsettia, and today is National Poinsettia Day. (Some people pronounce it Poinsetta or Poinsettia). How did National Poinsettia Day come about?
Still don't know what to get that special someone in your life for Christmas this year? How about a novel where they are the star at YourNovel.com. Perfect for the reader on your list.
With Christmas only two weeks away, Santa is a pretty busy guy these days. He has to double check all presents are made, organize final copies of the naughty and nice lists and do some last-minute reindeer grooming so they're in tip-top shape for Christmas. It's a stressful few weeks, but Santa's been doing it for like, hundreds of years, so he has the whole thing down pat.
Scotty McCreery brought a huge dose of country-style holiday cheer to breakfast TV on Tuesday morning (Dec. 11), performing his rendition of the classic 'Let It Snow' on 'Good Morning America.'
Forget what you always thought you knew about Santa Claus. He's not a chubby, bearded man in a red suit riding in a sleigh. He's a thin, hard-working UPS deliveryman in a big brown truck.
Although there was a more recent production of the film, "Miracle On 34th Street", tonight the original 1947 version airs on AMC at 8:00 p.m. This classic version stars John Payne, Maureen O'Hara, Edmund Gwenn as Kris Kringle, a man who claims to be Santa Claus. And look for a very young Natalie Wood.

In April, Social Security announced 52 new Compassionate Allowances conditions to the growing list of severe medical conditions that qualify for expedited medical decisions. The new conditions include many neurological disorders, cancers, and rare diseases.
The Compassionate Allowances initiative is a way of quickly identifying diseases and other medical conditions that invariably qualify as "disabled" based on minimal medical information. Compassionate Allowances allow Social Security to quickly identify the most obviously disabled individuals for allowances based on objective medical information that we can obtain quickly.
The announcement of 52 new conditions, effective in August, will increase the total number of Compassionate Allowances conditions to 165. That list continues to grow as Social Security, the National Institutes of Health, and a number of patient organizations help identify new conditions that clearly warrant quick approvals.
"Social Security will continue to work with the medical community and patient organizations to add more conditions," Commissioner Michael J. Astrue said. "With our Compassionate Allowances program, we quickly approved disability benefits for nearly 61,000 people with severe disabilities in the past fiscal year, and nearly 173,000 applications since the program began."
Social Security develops the list of Compassionate Allowances conditions from information received at public outreach hearings, comments received from the disability community, counsel of medical and scientific experts, and research with the National Institutes of Health. Also, we consider which conditions are most likely to meet our definition of disability.
For more information on the Compassionate Allowances initiative, visit www.socialsecurity.gov/compassionateallowances.

My current app is using URLs like:
/philsturgeon /philsturgeon/trip_slug
I have trips attached to users in my model like so:
class Trip < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
def to_param
Now I have been told about to_param which seems awesome. It means I can use the normal resource linking:

<%= link_to trip.name, trip %>

instead of manually creating strings like this:
redirect_to('/' + current_user.username + '/' + @trip.slug)
Problem is that gives me a hyphen (or dash) separated URL. As soon as I change the URL to_param to
#{user.username}/#{slug} (notice the slash instead of the dash) I get an error:
ActionController::RoutingError in Home#index
Showing /Users/phil/Scripts/ruby/travlr/app/views/home/index.html.erb where line #27 raised:
No route matches {:action=>"destroy", :controller=>"trips", :id=>#}

Conor Grant says he is overjoyed to have signed his first professional contract with Everton.Grant penned a two-year-deal on Wednesday, the latest high point of a summer which has already seen him make two first-team friendly appearances.The midfielder, who joined Everton's Academy when he was just 13-years-old, admitted a pro deal with his boyhood club was something he had dreamed of since he was a small child.Grant told evertontv: "I'm delighted to sign it. As a boy you dream of being a professional footballer and for the day to finally come, it is a dream come true."At a club like Everton, who I've grown up watching and supporting, it's a dream."The versatile 18-year-old was part of the Everton squad which travelled to Austria earlier this month and the Fazakerley-born youngster found it an enjoyable experience."Pre-season has been very good," said Grant. "I've enjoyed every minute of it and I'm just trying to learn as much as I can from the new manager and his backroom staff."It was a great experience to be involved with such experienced international players and you can only learn from them."After their four-day training camp in the small town of Laa an der Thaya, the Blues journeyed to the capital, where they faced the domestic champions Austria Vienna.Grant was included in the matchday squad for the fixture, making it onto the pitch as a substitute in the second half for a 20-minute cameo."It was a great experience with the crowd coming to watch you and to put on the shirt for the first team was another dream come true," he added. "Hopefully there will be a few more [appearances for the first team]."Another substitute appearance came in the Blues' 4-1 defeat of Accrington three days later and Grant would welcome any further opportunities that come his way."It was a big confidence boost that the manager had the faith to put me in the team and, obviously, I was delighted to get more minutes," he explained."It was nice with the fans coming to watch and I'd like to try to show what I can do again. "The manager and his coaching staff have been very good to me, they've been giving me a lot of feedback. It's impossible not to learn from a manager like the one we've got and his backroom staff. They're such nice people and they're always giving me advice."Watch Saturday's game against Blackburn Rovers LIVE on evertontv. For more information or to buy, click here.

For July, the Cane Fire Film Series is screening Filth, whichis directed by Jon S. Baird and stars James McAvoy and is based on the novel by Irvine Welsh who authored the cult favorite Trainspotting.
Filth chronicles scheming Bruce Robertson, a bigoted and corrupt policeman, who is in line for a promotion and will stop at nothing to get what he wants. Charged with solving a brutal murder and threatened by the aspirations of his colleagues, Bruce sets about ensuring their downfall, right under the nose of oblivious Chief Inspector Toal.
As he turns his colleagues against one another by stealing their wives and exposing their secrets, Bruce starts to lose himself in a web of deceit that he can no longer control. As his past slowly catches up with him, a missing wife, a crippling drug habit and suspicious colleagues start to take their toll on his sanity. The question is: can he keep his grip on reality long enough to disentangle himself from the filth?
The Cane Fire Film Series presents Filth on Monday, July 14, at 7:30 p.m., at the Acadiana Center for the Arts, located at 101 W. Vermilion St. in Downtown Lafayette. Tickets are $12 and can be purchased either at the door or online at www.AcadianaCenterfortheArts.org.
NOV 24 Because of a town ordinance, the police will come to a disabled girl's home this week to take away her service dog and kill him. Sound like a bad Lifetime movie? Nope - it's real life in Moreauville, blogger Lamar White Jr. tells us in this post. The dog's crime? Being born a pit bull. What's the reason for this ordinance? Well, the town fathers are a little vague on that one. Maybe Obama?
NOV 24 Columnist Stephanie Grace is writing about Bobby Jindal's continuing refusal to accept federal funding for the expansion of Medicaid. It's purely an attempt to benefit him politically, meaning the decision is "cruel, short-sighted and remarkably self-centered." Well, yeah. Have you met him?
NOV 24 The New York Times editorial board is writing about the 40 years that Albert Woodfox has spent in solitary confinement in this post, calling it "barbaric beyond measure." Since Richard Nixon was president, the man has been in solitary in Angola Plantation Penitentiary. How is that OK with us?
NOV 24 The GOP has a boogie-man for anybody thinking about voting for Mary Landrieu: President Obama. But the Dems have one for Bill Cassidy, too, Melinda Deslatte writes in this AP post on The Reading Eagle -- and his name is Governor Jindal.
NOV 24 Blogger Bob Mann is blogging about race and the Senate campaign in this post. Sure, everybody knows that Mary Landrieu doesn't do too well with white folks, but how come the GOP can't get arrested in the black community? Bob is asking.
NOV 24 Early voting for the December election began Saturday, and this post on NOLA Defender tells us what Mary and Bill were up to. The polls and the pundits have their opinions, but none of that can replace actual voting, NODEF says.
NOV 24 Blogger Tom Aswell tells us about Bruce Greenstein's grand jury testimony in this post. The former state health secretary testified in an investigation into the lucrative contract Louisiana awarded to his former employer. Apparently, Mr. Greenstein has a bit of the C.R.S. disease.
NOV 24 Last week, an SUV carrying a blended Texas family overturned on the Interstate near Shreveport, killing the parents and three of their kids, and seriously injuring two other kids. According to this story in the Dallas Morning News, the DA has exercised some compassion and dismissed the ticket given to the teen who was driving.
NOV 21 One (possible) positive from Hurricane Katrina is a comprehensive zoning ordinance for New Orleans. Nine years later, we're getting closer to that being finalized, but the current version has some problems. Here's the latest in a series of posts on The Lens in which residents give their views of the draft; this one is more amusing than most.
NOV 21 The end of the term has come for the grand jury investigating a lucrative Medicaid contract and a former state health official's ties to the company that won it, the Advocate reports here, but that doesn't mean the investigation into this stinkiness is over. There are still some things to look into, the lead prosecutor says.
NOV 21 Bobby Jindal is headed to Iowa again, the Des Moines Register reports here. The paper outlines what's going on with Bobby's non-campaign for president, and there's a lot of stuff here -- too bad none of it sounds like somebody running Louisiana. Hey, wasn't that the job he wanted?

Very friendly staff, great hotel in a good location.
good location, the bus stop is in front of the hotel and there is COOP near the hotel. the hotel has good fascilities; kitchen
Our meal at the restaurant was very good.
Our room was too hot and too noisy so we got little sleep. No air-con means you have no way of cooling the room except opening all the windows and letting all the traffic noise from the street in. Pillows were much too soft for comfortable sleep.
From the train station to the hotel, it takes roughly 20 mins by walk. Staffs are friendly. Nothing to complain about the internet and breakfast.
Everything Such a beautiful place The lady in the breakfast room was very friendly Close to lake for walks Bus stops right outside Free pass to lifts/bus if you stay more than one night.
No fridge
Nothing at all, thankfully we only stayed 2 Nights
The noise from the building work right next door , the noise from the road,the lack of air con,the fact the hotel is totally unmanned at night ,and street access is accessible all night, the lack of lighting in the room . I could go on !!
Breakfast modest
From location to endearingly warm staff. ... Everyt thing
Very cute, well decorated, extremely clean. Hotel restaurant was very good with good service and reasonable prices. Bus and lift pass included with 2 nights stay.
Room was a bit small, not much closet space.
breakfast should be earlier
Location - near the lake. Helpful(ish) reception staff Bar staff on second day (man) was lovely Use of free bus / train / gondola tickets was good
Bar staff on first night (woman) spent most of her time talking with friends on the street and hotel guests made to feel a nuisance. Waitress at breakfast could be described as surly at best. Things improved so obviously on the second day of our stay - the owner / senior manager appeared to be visiting. Pillows were much too soft
Good location near to the Lake (5 min walk) - you can also walk to the station in 20 mins, or into the main shopping area of St Moritz in 15 mins. Restaurant/bar downstairs was convenient, with ok food.
Only 1 pillow per person and they were pretty soft. The double bed has 2 separate single mattresses pushed together - but there's still a gap between them. We were charged 5CHF for a jug of tap water - with no warning given we were not given a drinks menu before ordering, which made it more expensive than the coke we ordered!
Small uncomfortable rooms.
Good pizza restaurant and bar
Major shop close by,bakery right next door,pizza restaurant and bar downstairs .
Pleasant hotel. Nice breakfast. Rooms can get a bit warm and stuffy. For expensive St Moritz it was a good deal.
Anywhere else in the world it would be regarded as being too expensive for what it was.
We liked the Fact that we were near the lake walking distance, the bus stop outside was very convenient to go around. The breakfast in the morning was good.
We missed having an electric kettle in our room to make our early morning tea or coffee.
The room was a good size and the modern bathroom had a bathtub. Staff in bar were pleasant. Breakfast was adequate.
Booked a superior double room with mountain views facing the lake. I expected a view of the lake! There was a partial view between buildings. The wi-fi was very slow. I would stay elsewhere next time.
The facility is excellent, especially the bath room. We ordered a Pizza from the ground floor, it is good,
We modified our reservation to add one additonal bed one month before we arrived. Both booking.com & Hotel Piz sent me the confimation for the modification. However, the staff claim they are not aware of it until I showed her the confirmation.
I found that I locked myself out of the room at 630am but couldn't get to reception or exit the building. Everyone was locked. I could be dangerous in a fire. The staff who arrived to clean let me sit in the reception until 7am. I wrote to the hotel that there should be a code to these doors vs being locked-in. It was a panic!
the design
Upgraded to a superior room . Thank goodness. Other room felt claustrophobic with no view at all ( other than a brick wall to the next building)
The pillows were too soft.
great room for 5 people with kitchen location near supermarket bus stop just in front of the hotel
Clean and big rooms. Bus stops right outside the hotel. Coop supermarket nearby. Easy walk to the lake. Restaurant below serves great pasta and pizza. Breakfast sufficient.
Price but it's St Moritz.

DEFINITION of 'Sight Draft'
A type of bill of exchange, in which the exporter holds the title to the transported goods until the importer receives and pays for them. Sight drafts are used with both air shipments and ocean shipments for financing transactions of goods in international trade. Unlike a time draft, which allows for a short-term delay in payment after the importer receives the goods, a sight draft is payable immediately.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Sight Draft'
A shortcoming of sight drafts is that if the importing country disallows the shipment or the importer is unable to pay for the shipment when it arrives, the exporter will not get paid and will be responsible for return shipping or disposal costs. Sight drafts must be accompanied by a letter of credit and other required documents, such as an ocean bill of lading, in order to be paid.

Betty, Thanks so much for the gallery love. Hope you have great week. Hugs, Bonnie
Hi Betty. Do you have the instructions for your Cricut? Do you need to adjust the blade pressure or the depth? Are you using the correct housing for your blade? (cutting blade assembly, they call it)
Hi My friend Timex! I don't know if you noticed that I have been gone for a few days or not. But, ya I was off to the manufacturing plant that makes parts for my ity bity vacuum cleaner. I had to order a special hose for it cause the one I was using was way toooo long, it just didn't work hardly at all. Now that I have the new one (that I designed) I am in high hopes that it will allow me to pick up all of the angel dust my special angels leave me way faster and easier on my old and decrepit back! So, I'll let you know how it works! Anyways, thanks for your visit and leaving some of your awesome dust on the I believe in angels card!
Thank you for stopping by and leaving such wonderful comments on my gallery ! Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving ! Hugs Lorie
Hi Betty! Thank you so much for your sweet comments on my Pool Time and Paradise layouts. I so appreciate it. :) Kelly
Morning Timex! I am so glad this frigid weather isn't slowing you down any, at least not yet. It is like -5 right now with the wind chill! Burrrrr. I did see a few icicles hanging in the air around the time you went through my galley. I need to get that dehumidifier working again so all of the beautiful particles of angel dust you leave for me are not turned into icicles! That would be awful! Plus the icicle may fall and hit another angel as they surf around my gallery! That would not be a pretty sight. That "gate" die is a total bugger, as I have to run it through my BigKick so many times to get it all cut out. Then yikes, it is difficult to get all of it out of the die as there are at least a bizillion pieces. I opened up the gate, but didn't know what to do with it then. I think I gave you one of these didn't I? Thanks my good friend for stopping by! Many hugs joyce
Betty just so you know I just used no name dryer sheets..does not have to be Bounce sheets. good luck ! Can't wait to see what you come up with ! Lorie

Pa. might lend Wilkinsburg district a hand, but not necessarily money
State-sponsored support could be one facet to improving Wilkinsburg schools, Carolyn Dumaresq, acting secretary of education for Pennsylvania, said on Wednesday.
In a meeting with reporters and editors of the Tribune-Review, Dumaresq said district administrators will meet with students, parents and teachers to craft a curriculum that better promotes fiscal and academic health.
Recent Wilkinsburg woes run the gamut from poor tax collection rates and terminations to criminal charges levied by and against district employees.
Dumaresq made no pledge of money, but she said the state could help in an advisory capacity.
The school board unanimously agreed March 28 to replace Superintendent Lee McFerren with Donna Micheaux, assistant executive director for organizational leadership at the Allegheny Intermediate Unit. McFerren will remain on administrative leave until June 26, when the board will buy out his contract for one year's salary of $115,000.
The board said that McFerren's removal was necessary to fix the troubled district.
The district's high school had the highest truancy rate in the region last year at 76.21 percent, an almost 20 percentage point increase from 2011-12.
Officials routinely collect only 75 to 78 percent of available property tax revenue, worth about $13.1 million from 5,000 parcels.
"We went by Tuesday night at their request," Dumaresq said, "not to enforce anything, but to support the new board and let them know we're ready to help in any way we can."
True revitalization takes a team, she said, and will be a long process.

Baltimore, MD (SportsNetwork.com) - Chris Davis hit a two-run homer to back seven scoreless innings from Wei-Yin Chen, as the Baltimore Orioles beat the Boston Red Sox, 6-0, in the rubber match of a three-game series.
Chen (7-2) gave up four hits while striking out a season-high seven batters for the Orioles, who bounced back from a 1-0 loss on Tuesday. Adam Jones, Nick Hundley, Jonathan Schoop and Nick Markakis each knocked in a run.
Boston starter Rubby De La Rosa (1-2) allowed four runs on seven hits with seven strikeouts and two walks over 5 2/3 innings.
The Orioles jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first. Steve Pearce walked and raced home on Jones' double down the left-field line. After Nelson Cruz flied out for the second out, Davis homered to right.
"I came out here early today and worked on a few things that have really be helpful for me in the past and was able to swing the bat the way I wanted to tonight so it was definitely a good night for me," Davis said.
Chen retired the first 10 batters he faced but gave up a two-out single to Dustin Pedroia in the fourth. Pedroia was thrown out at second as he tried to stretch the single into a double.
"He pitched great tonight," Pedroia said of Chen. "He had great stuff. We couldn't get anything going off him."
Hundley added an RBI single in the bottom half of the frame.
After the top of the seventh, the game was delayed 98 minutes due to rain.
Baltimore tacked on two more runs in the eighth. Chris Capuano loaded the bases with one out. A pair of runs were forced in when Schoop and Markakis worked walks.

Title: Would like suggestions for a tree or bush to be given as a memorial gift for friends in Austin, TX.
Answered by: Jimmy Mills
QUESTION:Hello, I would like to give a memorial gift of a tree and/or bush native to the Austin area to friends living there. Any suggestions? Local vendors would be appreciated also. Thanks very much!
A tree or shrub is a very thoughtful memorial that can be appreciated for years to come. Since we don't have information about the location where the tree will be planted ie. soil type, sun or shade, moisture, etc.. I will give you some resources to use for selecting a tree/shrub.
The first is the Texas Tree Planting Guide presented by the Texas Forest Service. It features the Tree Selector which is fun to use and helps you match a tree for a particular location. One piece of information that you need to know to use it is that Austin is in Travis County.
The next resource is our Recommended Species Lists. Clicking on Central Texas on the map will bring up a list of 156 Commercially available native plant species suitable for planned landscapes in Central Texas. You can reduce this list by going to the Narrow Your Search box on the right side of the page and make these selections; select Texas under state, Tree under General Appearance, and Perennial under Lifespan. Check Sun under Light requirement, and Moist under Soil Moisture. Click the Narrow your Search button, and your list shrinks to 12. You can get different lists by changing your selection criteria. Repeating the process and selecting Shrub under General Appearance instead of Tree will give you a list of 8 species of shrubs for use in Central Texas. Clicking on the scientific name of each plant will bring up its NPIN page that has a description of the plant, its growth requirements, and photos.
Some trees that Mr. Smarty Plants likes;
Quercus macrocarpa (Bur oak) One of our beautiful oaks, but a relativly slow grower.
Quercus muehlenbergii (Chinkapin oak) Another oak with a moderate growth rate.
Fraxinus texensis (Texas ash) Texas ash is a fast growing small tree, 30-45 ft. tall. Pinnate leaves have brilliant fall color.
Carya illinoinensis (Pecan) The state tree of Texas.
Some shrubs that Mr. Smarty Plants likes;
Ilex vomitoria (Yaupon) Yaupon is a picturesque, upright, evergreen, shrub or small tree, growing 12-45 ft high. Female plants produce prodigious amounts of bright red, persistent berries.
Ilex decidua (Possumhaw) A small deciduous tree or shrub with an interesting name. Very conspicuous in the winter because of the numerous red berries on its bare stems.
Morella cerifera (Wax myrtle) A popular evergreen ornamental plant with foliage that has a spicy fragrance. Can be trimed to form a hedge.
Sophora secundiflora (Texas mountain laurel) Can grow as a small tree or large shrub. It's a favorite in Austin because of its showy purple flowers.
Consult our Suppliers Directory for help locating the plant(s) of your choice.

Joel Edgerton to star in "Shantaram" hit novel adaptation
September 6, 2013 - 16:24 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Warner Bros is in talks with Joel Edgerton to star in Shantaram, an adaptation of the Gregory David Roberts novel that is being produced by Inifinitum Nihil partners Johnny Depp and Christi Dembrowski, and GK Films' Graham King, Deadline said.
Following a couple of stalled attempts to get this movie up and running after the studio paid $2 million for the rights in 2004, Depp himself jump started the process by personally courting Edgerton to play a role Depp once intended to play before the film was derailed by the Writer's Strike.
Edgerton is being courted for the lead role of a remarkable protagonist who, at the time the book became a sensation in Hollywood, was said to have been modeled after the author in a thinly veiled memoir. He starts as an Australian heroin addict who escapes a maximum-security prison, reinvents himself as a doctor in the slums of India and eventually uses gun-running and counterfeiting skills to fight against the invading Russian troops in Afghanistan.
"In 1978, gifted student and writer Greg Roberts turned to heroin when his marriage collapsed, feeding his addiction with a string of robberies. Caught and convicted, he was given a nineteen-year sentence. After two years, he escaped from a maximum-security prison, spending the next ten years on the run as Australia's most wanted man.
Hiding in Bombay, he established a medical clinic for slum-dwellers, worked in the Bollywood film industry and served time in the notorious Arthur Road prison. He was recruited by one of the most charismatic branches of the Bombay mafia for whom he worked as a forger, counterfeiter, and smuggler, and fought alongside a unit of mujaheddin guerrilla fighters in Afghanistan. His debut novel, Shantaram, is based on this ten-year period of his life in Bombay. The result is an epic tale of slums and five-star hotels, romantic love and prison torture, mafia gang wars and Bollywood films. A gripping adventure story, Shantaram is also a superbly written meditation on good and evil and an authentic evocation of Bombay life," a synopsis published in Powell's Books says.
Edgerton, who most recently starred in The Great Gatsby and Zero Dark Thirty, is Australian-born and fits the model of the protagonist very well. The script is by Eric Roth. Back when Depp was going to star, Peter Weir was once set to direct. He's long gone, and they will look for a director now.

Additional Information
A view from the bottom
Wow" is the word on Team Asda's lips over at VCCP Blue this week. Wow, it may be the "most depressing" time of year but, as our clients report a record performance this Christmas, we take a minute to celebrate the part we had to play.
As an industry newbie, I was warned about the "beast" that is retail advertising at Christmas and, wow, that was not a joke. In just six weeks, we produced 21 TV commercials and more than 150 digital executions. This job is not for the faint-hearted and often I feel I am sitting among fearless warriors.
Some of us may be going into battle sipping camomile tea this January, but the Asda account is enough of a stimulant for anyone.
Each day begins in darkness as my account director and I arrive ahead of the crowd to arm ourselves for the day ahead. That this week is "another busy one" is an oddly reassuring phrase. Anything else would be both disconcerting and highly unlikely. As the kettle boils, we hatch a plan and return to our desks full of optimism that, one way or another, "we'll get it done".
Amid a number of digital executions to be signed off and a flurry of exciting new briefs, today we are hosting our first major Ways of Working (WOW) session. That unmistakable buzz signifying the imminent arrival of clients is palpable. Suits, Pret products and matching mugs appear as if by magic.
Now that the Christmas trees have come down, the time is right to reflect on how best to action our learnings. As a wise man over at Asda recently said: "The finish line is the start line."
We begin our session with introductions as not everyone in our new team has met the Leeds-based Asda team. For me, it is a significant step forward to finally move from phone to face with the client I speak to daily.
Back to the office after a late team lunch for an end-of-play catch-up with our digital producer on the latest brief. Before I even need to ask the dreaded question, I am handed new timing plans. Apparently, great minds also dress alike, as we realise we are wearing the same shirt.
In a world ruled by status reports, Gantt charts and trackers, an early-morning in-house yoga class at VCCP Blue provides the perfect antidote. Masters in the ancient art of meditation should try practising in the middle of a busy agency for the ultimate challenge.
Every day has its own unique rhythm. A particularly hectic one is punctuated by the constant consolidation of Post-it note reminders that pepper my desk. A quieter day… I'll get back to you on that one.
How things have changed since I had my first taste of the wonderful world of advertising playing the happy baby in a TV ad for London Weekend Television. If someone had told me that I would return to the industry to work on the largest pitch win of 2013 at Campaign's Agency of the Year, I imagine my reaction would have been – you've guessed it – "wow".
Elle Shaps is an account executive at VCCP

Second Canadian Involvement In Algerian Gas Plant Attack Confirmed; Security Expert Questions Militants' Motives
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Tendar Tsering | March 24, 2013 8:12 PM EST
After the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) confirmed the remains of a second Canadian allegedly involved in the Algerian gas plant attack, in January, security policy expert and Professor at the Royal Military College of Canada in Kingston, Ont., Anthony Seaboyer sought to know the ulterior motives of the militant group associated with attack and their training base.
A visibly disturbed Seaboyer told CTV News, Saturday: "It was bad enough to have one Canadian involved in this... now a second. It's really not good for our reputation around the world and not what we want to see."
Further, he questioned the militants' links and training background stating: "Who did they work for? Where did they train?"
Also, questioning the alleged Canadian involvement in the attack, Seaboyer wondered if anything could have been done to avert the attack.
After more than two months of the deadly attack in January, investigators confirmed the second Canadian's identity through forensic analysis of remains recovered from the site, which typically involves the collection of DNA and fingerprint samples.
Earlier, Canadian police said another Canadian suspect was among those killed in the gas plant siege but added it was not clear whether the identified Canadian was a victim or perpetrator.
However, shortly after the deadly attack, Algerian Prime Minister Abdelmalek Sellal announced that two Canadians were among the Islamist militants, but the Canadian government could not immediately confirm the claim.
Canadian police department is yet to release the names of the two Canadians as it has stated that investigations are ongoing.
Earlier, Algerian forces raided a gas plant Jan. 16 that was attacked by an Islamic militant group and witness to hostage-taking. Though the militant siege was successfully put to an end, scores of people lost their lives in the fight.
At least, 38 hostages and 29 rebels were reported to have been killed in the attack. Almost all of the hostages were reported to be of foreign origin hailing from eight different countries including the U.K. and Japan.
Though the gas plant attack was put to an end, the fight against the Islamist rebels linked to Al-Qaeda continues in the African region.
The man who claimed responsibility for the attack, Mokhtar Belmokhtar, was reportedly killed in a military strike in northern Mali.
Apparently, the terrorists claimed the attack was an act of revenge following a military attempt to oust Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) in neighboring Mali.
In January, Canada extended a Royal Canadian Air Force C-17 and around 40 Air Force personnel at the request of French government for its mission in Mali.
Initially extending and then re-extending the military support by thirty days, twice, Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper recently declared Canadian Air Force C-17 will remain stationed in Mali as long as its services are required.
Further, the incident has upped the ante of the U.S. intelligence officials, who in January noted that signs of Canadian citizens' involvement in an attack masterminded by Islamist militants were of great concern to the American authorities.
The possibility of Canadian citizens' involvement in the attack on the facility in the Algerian desert raised concerns among security officials about a worrying nexus between North America and North African militants, Reuters reported.

Q. We're a church with six full-time employees, three part-timers and six musicians who are paid per performance. Are we subject to FMLA? And who counts as an "employee" under the law: full-time, part-time and on-call workers, such as our musicians? —E.E., North Carolina
A. Good news: Your church is not a "covered employer" under the FMLA. For FMLA purposes, your church has only 15 employees and, therefore, doesn't need to comply. The law applies to all private organizations that employ 50 or more people in each working day during each of 20 or more calendar weeks during the current or preceding calendar year. All people on the payroll count toward that threshold; that includes part-time and temporary employees, plus those on paid or unpaid leaves of absence.
Key point: Some states have enacted their own FMLA-type laws that stipulate different coverage requirements, so employers should check their state laws.
