Students at the College of the Redwoods Mendocino Coast Campus were surprised to find the bookstore moved into cyberspace at the start of the term, just when most of the college staff was laid off. Although the cut of five staff members was announced last month, many students didn't realize they would have a library where books cannot be checked out or a confusing shuffle as longtime staff left at different times or changed jobs.
More online classes could be a way forward for the Coast Campus, CR's president and vice president told students gathered in The Grind cafe Tuesday morning.
"We don't know what the future holds. We are doing what we can to save this campus. This campus is in jeopardy and we are doing all we can to cut expenses," said CR President/ Superintendent Kathy Smith.
Smith and Lee Lindsey, vice president of administrative services, spent more than an hour answering questions, as part of a promise made last month that administrators would take the three-hour drive south from CR's Eureka campus more often. About two dozen students, staff members and history and political science professor Toby Green attended.
The Board of Trustees voted Dec. 4 to eliminate 39 staff and management positions and approved a college-wide reorganization plan. Two senior-level administrative positions, including the coast dean, will be discontinued when their contracts expire at the end of June 2013. The cuts will save $500,000 for the 2012-13 academic year, as well as permanent savings of about $1.
"This is the first round to bring us into financial compliance, which included layoffs on this campus and all the other campuses," said Smith.
"Over the past few years we have used up nearly all our reserves," she told the gathered students.
Last May, Smith moved up Highway 101 from her job as president of Mendocino College in Ukiah to take the top job at College of the Redwoods in Eureka. She arrived at a desperate time, facing dual disasters in accreditation and budget.
"We have to do more, we are not there yet. We are still $2 million out of balance. The next round will be equally difficult and will include [full-time] faculty layoffs," Smith said.
Press not invited
Smith was surprised this reporter was at the meeting, spotting the camera and correctly guessing news media.
"I thought I was going to be talking to students," she said. Smith said there would be issues she could not discuss with the press present.
Student Emily Scott, who plans to have completed the work for a natural history certificate by this spring, said the issue is important to the entire community and other students not at the meeting.
Smith did not press the issue and the meeting was mutually polite, even when critical.
Students questioned the way changes were communicated and asked about the administration's vision.
Bookstore closed
"You knew we were going to have our library access eliminated and our bookstore closed as early as November?" asked Scott. "None of us were notified about this change É even the professors weren't notified that the bookstore was going to be changing to online.
"I didn't receive any emails, or newsletters that said our services were going to be cut back, and they were cut back significantly."
Several students said they and others are still waiting for class materials ordered online two weeks into the session.
Smith said this particular issue was unrelated to the December layoffs. CR privatized its bookstores, which are now run by The Follett Corporation. That means only a virtual store on the coast.
Lindsey explained that Follett discovered that many class packets contained materials with intellectual property issues. A crackdown on college photocopy copyrights has been a major move across the nation over the past two decades.
"We are sort of late on this É As a small college we had been sort of under the radar and we have gotten lucky that we haven't had any trouble over this," Lindsey said.
So packets were slowed or sent back by Follett, to obtain legal clearances.
"We made some assumptions when we switched to Follett that our materials were copyright cleared, some were not," Smith said.
Staff cuts
For the Mendocino Coast Campus, five classified staff positions were eliminated, with long-term employees such as Charlie Claybrook serving their last days this week. The local dean position will be gone as of July 1, 2013. Students told Smith the Fort Bragg campus was in a state of chaos, with staff employees not knowing what was going to happen next and "every person figuring things out for themselves."
Smith said because laid-off classified employees have the right to "bumping" (moving to another position held by someone with less seniority), the administration isn't sure of all the details yet. For example, when the librarian position was axed in Fort Bragg, the local librarian chose to move to Eureka. One bump can produce another.
The CR district will be working with the Classified State Employees Association to create three part-time staff jobs at the Fort Bragg campus. Longtime financial aid counselor Marcia Williams retired but the plans are for her to return part-time, Smith said.
Looking forward
Students seemed more interested in the future than the current turmoil.
"This campus specifically has a lot of natural resources to draw on in this area. It makes so much sense to have unique programs here not offered anywhere else," said student Gabriel Quinn Maroney.
"How can we generate more creativity and ingenuity? É like the woodworking program. People come from Tibet to do woodworking here ... My question is what is our vision?" Maroney said.
One aspect of Smith's vision is the elimination of some top administrator positions. She hopes every dean position can be district-wide, eliminating competition between satellites and the main campus while saving a lot of money. However, all those administrators would be in Eureka.
"When I hear we get students from Tibet, we get students from wherever. California community colleges' mission is to serve our constituents and our communities ... Taxpayers across the state are not wanting and willing to support [people from other areas]," Smith said.
She called the local fine woodworking program a success story others could model on. She said the administration would like to find a way to expand the number of stations at the fine woodworking school beyond 23.
"I agree we get caught in this downward spiral of not being creative, not being innovative. We don't have people to offer services, so services aren't available and we don't have the people," Smith said.
"As far as vision ... Think about the governor's budget, which just came out, is very big on online education," said Smith.
Chris Schomer, a longtime lab technician who also served on many boards for CR, wasn't keen on a heavily online direction for the coast.
"I'm a laboratory person, I'm a hands-on person, I am not big about shifting so much online," said Schomer.
Lindsey said the administration knows cutting is not the way to success. But CR simply doesn't have the money to start conventional programs from scratch
"I'm afraid if we try to add more things here we thin the soup." He said more classes would mean less students per class, making the bottom line worse.
"What we are up against here is demographics, the number of college age students here, the number of people going to college, it's tough to do anything additional," said Lindsey.
One place where there is money for growth is the governor's initiative for online courses, he said.
Mendocino College
When Smith was president of Mendocino College, she was approached with the idea of Ukiah taking over the Fort Bragg campus. She could not recommend the idea to that board in those post crash days, she said.
Mendocino College was also facing financial challenges and she got "a piece of paper" that showed the coast campus ran $500,000 in the minus.
However, when challenged about the half million annual loss number by Scott, she didn't back it up.
"Lee and I were talking on the way down. We need to get some good numbers, how you allocate some expenses makes numbers fluctuate," Smith said.
Smith said she will have her first meeting this month with the brand new Mendocino College president and is willing to explore any option.
"Part of smoke and mirrors on why our numbers looked so bad, is how much the main campus charges us for the services it provide," said Schomer.
Schomer said the numbers got worse when the main campus added charges for a wide variety of services onto the bottom line.
"I didn't realize you were a CPA and I'm glad you are because you know how to ask good questions," Schomer said to Smith.

Quality TDS Meter at a Great Price By Davide on 11/21/2014Davide would recommend this product to a friendThis product is easy to install and and displays an accurate reading. With the push of a button, it displays what your current reading is and then shuts off after a couple min.
I've had this product since the beginning of 2014 and I haven't had to perform any maintenance on it.
Added a second to my rodi system By Jonathan on 11/10/2014Jonathan would recommend this product to a friendI added a second tds meter to monitor the incoming water supply and waste water for use in other, less sensitive freshwater tanks. Very easy to add these, just cut the existing tubing and install this inline.
Works well By Kyle on 11/4/2014Kyle would recommend this product to a friendThese meters work well, continually updating the reading. I like to place mine after the ro membrane, and after the di resin. I find that the reading after the membrane is around 6-7, and after the di is 0. I have found that the di resin will continue to produce 0 tds water for a short time after the color-changing resin changes color.
Great tool By June2881 on 10/16/2014June2881 would recommend this product to a friendI did not have a tds meter installed to my RODI system when first starting out with my reef tank. After 4-5 months of excellent water parameters I suddenly had a huge phosphate spike. After realizing the problem was my RODI filters expiring I added this meter and never looked back. Excellent and very important tool.
Usefull TDS Meter By Mark on 9/29/2014Mark would recommend this product to a friendI have this meter testing the water coming out of my membrane as well as the water coming out of my DI resin. It is very accurate and helpful. When the time comes where it need to be calibrated, the price point is good enough to purchase another.
Helps to take the guess work out By Travis on 8/19/2014Travis would recommend this product to a friendVery easy to install and even move around if you are wondering what each area is doing. Changed mine over to the discharge side just to see what flushing does and I will tell you that it is a good idea to flush your RO before and after each use it does help. I only have about 190 TDS going in but while I'm flushing I have seen over 400 TDS coming out. This is a must have for anyone with an RO/DI unit.
Good product By emdrn05 on 5/19/2014emdrn05 would recommend this product to a friendI'm only giving this a 4 because the directions for installing it were lacking. Once I got it hooked up it seems to be working well. Definitely need to have one on your filter.
Must have By Eric on 5/8/2014Eric would recommend this product to a friendYou need this. Takes the guesswork out of filter replacement. Really simple to install and operate. Very nice for the price.
Great product By Richard on 4/20/2014Richard would recommend this product to a friendEasy to install, gives a simple quick way to monitor your filter performance.
How Can You Not Have One By Austin on 4/19/2014Austin would recommend this product to a friendhow do you know what your system is doing are you at 0 TDS? the dual meter tells you what is going in to your DI canister and what is coming out. No more Hoping my RO/DI unit is working right.
Must have item on RO/DI system By Rick on 4/18/2014Rick would recommend this product to a friendThis meter is a great addition to any system. Much easier then a pen type checker. To have confidence in the water going into your tank you need to know if the filter is running as it should be. With this you will know in seconds.
Why didn't I have one when I started!? By TriggerThis on 4/13/2014TriggerThis would recommend this product to a friendA must have!
I didn't have one, almost crashed my tank putting 30TDS top off water in it every day because I didn't know my DI was exhauseted.
Don't have to worry any more
Literally takes 6 seconds to install

You should "make clean" after updating.

You really need to use strace -f else you don't see all the threads, like the one that the clone() call in the middle of that trace created.
Interestingly the SIGRTMIN in there is something that LinuxThreads uses, so that is related.
If you want you could try to hack the libpbe common.mk to add -DSUPPORT_LINUX_2_4 and recompile (make clean first) and see if that improves things.

OK, I've just thought of one reason why it's broken; it really needs to have that SUPPORT_LINUX_2_4 macro defined when it compiles anytermd itself, as well as libpbe. I'm not sure if that explains the segfault though. Anyway I'll try and fix that tomorrow (it's late now).
I think you'll need to run that under gdb and see exactly where it crashes.
Unfortunately gdb is a bit tedious when there are multiple threads.
strace -f might also give some clue what is going on.

Of course this assumes that you're building on the machine that you want to run the code on, which is true for most but perhaps not all users.

Got any plans this weekend? If you have a 3D TV and FiOS TV, you might want to consider hanging around the house for a while.
Verizon just announced plans to offer FiOS TV customers a treat: Major League Baseball in 3D. The offer is for customers in New York and northern New Jersey, via the YES Network. All you will need is a 3D TV set, 3D glasses and an HD set-top box.
The two 3D events will be part of the Yankees/Mariners series, with games running on Saturday, July 10 at 10:00 p.m. (EST) and Sunday, July 11 at 4:00 p.m. (EST)
"The YES Network's 3D offering is just the latest way in which Verizon continues to enhance the value that FiOS TV offers today's consumer, with the best in HD entertainment, industry-leading video on demand, and interactive applications that cable can't match," said Terry Denson, VP of content strategy and acquisition for Verizon. "We are committed to bringing our customers a consistently high-quality TV experience with the best programming available over the country's only all-fiber network. And there's so much more yet to come, with new programming, applications and other enhancements that only FiOS can deliver."
In case you are too giddy with excitement, you can find the YES Network on channel 575. Verizon is hoping this is just one of many 3D broadcasts. The service provider is hoping to launch some type of 3D offering this winter.

sadly this mechanic has caused many a raider to either turn down their graphics to super low settings, or buy new computers/graphics cards. Being sucked into Sindragosa causes a lot of problems on older/crappier computers.
I seem to be having trouble getting out of the way of the cold blast. This mechanic is harder for me that anything in ICC including LK. I get sucked in and it freezes almost so when I attempt to turn around I feel like I am lagged so by the time I run its over.
My only solution so far as been to run straight through the dragon and back through the center of it. I don't have issues as far as lag or anything else on any other fights and may be its me. Any suggestions or alteratives where I won't have issues with my progressing guilds would be appreciated. I am a resto shammie btw.
Thank you in advance
sadly this mechanic has caused many a raider to either turn down their graphics to super low settings, or buy new computers/graphics cards. Being sucked into Sindragosa causes a lot of problems on older/crappier computers.
Hey guys, My guild is getting ready to prep for a Sindra 25Hm kill, in regards to the slowing debuff applied by frost breath. How do we deal with it, with the added damage from frost bombs the tank would not survive, how can we ensure that he to get's behind the frost tombs?
Freedom him if he can't clear it himself, a warrior can intervene to clear the debuff and also move into position quickly, dk's can AMS to clear the debuff. Druids can shapeshift. Paladins can freedom themselves i guess.
Another method is wherever you drop the tombs, have the tank stand close to but not too close to where they are getting dropped and not necessarily with the rest of the group.
Myself and another Resto Shammy had the same issue even when my effects were turned down, best solution I found was to stick a couple of talent points in improved ghost wolf on the enhance tree after that the Blistering Cold was never an issue. I think us Resto Shammys are just slow movers, too many pies or something I guess.
i have questions about the Sindragosa 10 man fight. first we went in with 2 tanks 3 healers 3 melee and 2 ranged. i am wondering if we need only 3 ranged and 2 melee. any criticism on how we need to progress would be greatly appreciated as we want to have Lich King downed before cataclysm. thank you for your time
either setup works fine, i've done it with both 3 melee/2 ranged, and as 2 melee/3 ranged. It's in hardmode where your "ranged, mana users" become more problematic.
This fight is starting to get really annoying for our guild. We mastered first 2 phases but phase 3 she is just eating us. Our best result so far has been 22%. We use 2 tanks 3 healers and rest dps.
My questions are these.
1. Tanks makeup is me (war) main with bear off. None of us so far use FR gear but I take you mean the lvl200 stuff from ulduar days. If we go with me in full FR and use the bear (cat) to dps and just taunt when I have got how many stacks? Is recomended.
2. Is it better to go with 2 healers (pally and tree) and force the phase 3 thru?
3. Do you still free up dps when they get tombed or leave em? We have 3 Druids in raid so br is an option if tomb goes when they die.
I know we would deff have to free up a healer or ot if they got caught but with 6 dps and the cat is there enough time to kill her before all dps are dead. We have some good numbers on dps with makeup being DK, rogue, Mage, lock and either SP or hunter.
We've spent prob 12-14 hours on her so far and are really keen to chalk this one up and move on before cata.
Thanks in advance.
So long and thanks for all this fish
Hand of freedom disables the slow effect for a few seconds, is particularly useful for getting behind an ice block both in the air phase and the final phase.
Vong a little more info on WHY you're failing would be good tbh.
I'll just go ahead and list the biggest mistakes i usually see:
- Tanks dying to too much spike damage. This usually happens when you take a melee hit, a cleave and a frost breath in quick succession when your healers are trying to deal with tombs and/or unchained magic. Frost resist gear (boots, belts and maybe a resist flask at the most should be adequate, more resist gear will just gimp you too much) on tanks OR better coordination between your healers is the solution.
- DPS dying. In an effort to dps down the boss hard, your dps are ignoring unchained magic/chilled to the bone and going all out. Mystic Buffet stacks will mean they will eventually die.
- Not enough dps/healing: Your dps and healers are too worried about Mystic Buffet stacks and completely fail in doing their job. They need to be a little more brave but not to the point of hitting the above point.
- Tomb failure. This involves everything with tombs. Not hiding behind them to reset buffet stacks, not breaking tombs in time, breaking tombs too early, placing tombs in wrong places (both too close to the boss, especially to the head, and too far away, like the top of the stairs or way across the platform are wrong). Tombs need to be placed in positions where tanks can reasonably reach them in time to clear their stacks but far away that people behind it can clear their buffs, especially near a blistering cold pull. They need to be broken as soon as people have cleared their stacks, not before, not after.
What it usually boils down to is good tank switching (clearing mystic buffet stacks in a timely manner and making sure you dont get the boss to breath on the raid by taunting on the run) and proper coordination between healers (who clears stacks when and who heals tanks in case of tomb/UM).
Ok reasons I see that we fail are.
Tombs. Phase 3 lol.
The tanks are only dying when we loose healers. It's trying to get raid ro understand that phase 3 is not about dps. Well it is but it's more surviving. I even did a couple of phase 3 attempts with no one dpsing boss. Just to try and get raid ro practice postioning tombs, freeing up tombed players and managing buffs. This kinda worked. Our prob is lack of practice time on this phase. It's very harse on us as we get maybe 1min then wipe. 3 tombs in and people start to drop.
So long and thanks for all this fish
Hey Guys
having the same probs as Vong, we have been going the zerg strat and consistently get to 3% with me (feral tank) as last standing, healers are biting the bullet because of frost tombs and the unchained magic debuff, any advice would be appreciated. We generally blitz through the first ten in 2-2 1/2 hours then spend 90 mins wiping on sindra getting to be a total pain in the ass. Composition is hunter mage rogue uh dk 1 shammy heals 1 pally heals 1 druid heals warrior bear tank and a shammy dps. Any advice or hep would be appreciated, frost tombs seem to be a problem with positioning as well.
We have tried the los behind tombs strat splitting the grp, two tanks, etc etc and fail consistently.
can anyone tell me which addon it is that the fury warrior is using, to let him know when to use his slam?

A retired Omaha police officer received a huge bill from the city, but the retiree argues that he shouldn't pay for the city's mistake.
"It's not my responsibility." For more than five years, retired officer Willis Sherman got more pension money than he should have and the city wants him to pay back almost $40,000. "I never thought he city would make a mistake like this and if it's coming out of their fund, why wasn't it caught?"
Assistant city attorney Bernard in den Bosch says the retiree should have caught the pension mistake. "If I was expecting my check to be reduced by $635 each month that would be something I would be attuned to."
The city's error started with divorce court five years ago. The divorce decree ordered $635 be deducted from Sherman's pension each month and the city sent his ex-wife a check. She got the cash, but the money was never deducted from his pension.
Sherman thought his monthly pension came after the alimony deduction and he can't afford to write a $40,000 check. "This is a mistake and I don't know what I'm going to do about it because they got me out here on a limb that I shouldn't even be on."
Sherman's attorney, James Martin Davis, says his client deserves a repayment plan without the five percent interest the city demands. "He should not be responsible for any interest, he didn't cause this mistake."
The city's attorney says charging five percent interest is fair. "He received money he shouldn't have," says in den Bosch. "We wish he would have told us, we wish we would have caught it earlier, unfortunately none of those things happened so now we're trying to make the best out of a bad situation."
Sherman says City Hall should show more interest in how the mistake happened, rather than asking him to repay a large lump sum.
In den Bosch says out of an estimated 4,000 employee pensions, the city handled dozens of garnishments with few mistakes. However, a former civilian worker is paying back a $75,000 overpayment.
As for Sherman, the pension plan is expected to return eight percent, so the city says he should pay at least five percent as a compromise for the city's error because the city says Sherman had the opportunity to earn interest on the money he inadvertently received for more than five years.

Lake Michigan Cabin Makeover
Natural texture
Natural materials with light finishes are used throughout the house. Here, a bamboo desk and twig chair fit neatly under a slanted living room ceiling. The painted plank walls and ceilings not only add texture and light but also highlight the rustic details.
Bringing in the light
Michiana Shores is known for homes characterized by log facades, massive stone fireplaces and generous screen porches. "It's a look unique to this community, and we wanted to be in harmony with what's around us," Paul says.
Although they bumped out the master bath and dining area, the cabin's exterior looks remarkably like the original. But that changes one step inside the front door, where dark and rustic give way to light and sophisticated.
"We knew we wanted to lighten the whole thing up," says Stephen, an interior designer who created the English-cottage feel. Stephen set the cottage tone by painting all the wood paneling soft white.
At left, the cabin's great room after renovation. Instead of a skylight over the fireplace, the owners added a cupola with working windows.
Before: dark and rustic
This photo of the great room before renovation shows the dark paneling and limited light.
Pretty patterns
The decor includes something rarely spotted in cabins: pretty paisley and floral patterns on wallpaper, curtains, upholstered furniture, bedding and pillows. The muted color palette references the wooded landscape outside. In the foyer, paisley wallpaper adds unexpected sophistication.
White and bright kitchen
Lots of windows and white cabinets keep the kitchen bright, even in the woods. Sliding (instead of swinging) French doors keep traffic paths clear.
Kitchen: Before renovation
Cramped and dark, the kitchen needed a total re-do.
Dining room style
To take advantage of natural light, the owners situated the dining room table in front of new soaring windows styled like the 1930s originals.
Natural texture
Natural materials with light finishes are used throughout the house. Here, a bamboo desk and twig chair fit neatly under a slanted living room ceiling. The painted plank walls and ceilings not only add texture and light but also highlight the rustic details.
A porch for entertaining
The screen porch was enlarged to 20 x 20 feet for entertaining. The porch's new 18-foot-tall stone fireplace includes a raised hearth that's wide enough for sitting. A drop-leaf table behind the lounging sofa serves as a buffet or opens for sit-down dinners. Lightweight wicker chairs are easy to move.
Dramatic banister
A local Michigan artisan made the dramatic natural twig stair banister. Its pale, natural color fits the house's warm color scheme.
Snug bedroom
Matching wallpaper and bedding unify the snug master bedroom. Three landscape paintings by an Iowa artist stand in for a headboard under the eaves.
Spa ambience
The remodeled master bath offers spa ambience with a soaking tub next to tall windows providing extensive views of nature.
Before: Small and dark bath
Like the kitchen, this bath was tiny and outdated.
Keeping in style
A bump-out bath expansion melds with the original architecture.
Pretty outside as well as inside
Stone pillars and split-rail fencing enhance the rustic setting.
Swooping architecture
A swooped portico mimics the entry's arched screen door.
Charming details
Contrasting green trim and log-lattice porch railings add charming cottage character to this cabin's facade.
An outdoor remodel, too
The lush setting was one of the cabin's attractions for the homeowners. They planted more trees, bushes and flowers on the half-acre property that was already blessed with towering pines.

Who Is a Caregiver?
Are you helping a loved one get through cancer treatment? If you are, then this booklet is for you. You are a "caregiver."
You may not think of yourself as a caregiver. You may feel you are doing something natural. You are just caring for someone you love. Some caregivers are family members. Others are friends.
What does "giving care" mean?
Giving care can mean helping with daily needs. These include going to doctor visits, making meals, and picking up medicines. It can also mean helping your loved one cope with feelings. Like when he or she feels sad or angry. Sometimes having someone to talk to is what your loved one needs most.
While giving care, it's normal to put your own needs and feelings aside. But putting your needs aside for a long time is not good for your health. You need to take care of yourself, too. If you don't, you may not be able to care for others. This is why you need to take good care of you.
Your Feelings
It's common to feel stressed and overwhelmed at this time. Like your loved one, you may feel angry, sad, or worried. Try to share your feelings with others who can help you. It can help to talk about how you feel. You could even talk to a counselor or social worker.
Understanding your feelings
You probably have many feelings as you take care of your loved one. There is no right way for you to feel. Each person is different.
The first step to understanding your feelings is to know that they're normal. Give yourself some time to think through them. Some feelings that may come and go are:
- Sadness. It's okay to feel sad. But if it lasts for more than 2 weeks, and it keeps you from doing what you need to do, you may be depressed.
- Anger. You may be angry at yourself or family members. You may be angry at the person you're caring for. Or you may be angry that your loved one has cancer. Sometimes anger comes from fear, panic, or stress.
If you are angry, try to think of what makes you feel this way. Knowing the cause may help.
- Grief. You may be feeling a loss of what you value most. This may be your loved one's health. Or it may be the loss of the day-to-day life you had before the cancer was found. Let yourself grieve these losses.
- Guilt. Feeling guilty is common, too. You may think you aren't helping enough. Or you may feel guilty that you are healthy.
- Loneliness. You can feel lonely, even with lots of people around you. You may feel that no one understands your problems. You may also be spending less time with others.
What may help
Talk with someone if your feelings get in the way of daily life. Maybe you have a family member, friend, priest, pastor, or spiritual leader to talk to. Your doctor may also be able to help.
Here are some other things that may help you:
- Know that we all make mistakes whenever we have a lot on our minds. No one is perfect.
- Cry or express your feelings. You don't have to pretend to be cheerful. It's okay to show that you are sad or upset.
- Focus on things that are worth your time and energy. Let small things go for now. For example, don't fold clothes if you are tired.
- Remind yourself that you are doing the best you can.
- Spend time alone to think about your feelings.
Asking for Help
Many people who were once caregivers say they did too much on their own. Some wished that they had asked for help sooner. Be honest about what you can do. Think about tasks you can give to others. And let go of tasks that aren't so important at this time.
Asking for help also helps your loved one.
Don't be afraid to ask for help. Remember, if you get help for yourself:
- You may stay healthier and have more energy.
- Your loved one may feel less guilty about your help.
- Other helpers may offer time and skills that you don't have.
How can others help you?
People may want to help you but don't know what you need. Here are some things you can ask them to do:
- Help with tasks such as:
- Cooking
- Cleaning
- Shopping
- Yard Work
- Childcare
- Eldercare
- Talk with you and share your feelings.
- Help with driving errands such as:
- Doctor visits
- Picking up your child
- Find information you need.
- Tell others how your loved one is doing.
Know that some people may say, "No."
Some people may not be able to help. There could be one or more reasons such as:
- They may be coping with their own problems.
- They may not have time right now.
- They may not know how to help.
- They may feel uneasy around people who are sick.
Caring for Yourself
Making time for yourself
Taking time for yourself can help you be a better caregiver. That's even more true if you have health problems.
You may want to:
- Find nice things you can do for yourself. Even just a few minutes can help. You could watch TV, call a friend, work on a hobby, or do anything that you enjoy.
- Be active. Even light exercise such as walking, stretching, or dancing can make you less tired. Yard work, playing with kids or pets, or working in the garden are helpful, too.
- Find ways to connect with friends. Are there places you can meet others who are close to you? Or can you chat or get support by phone or email?
- Give yourself more time off. Ask friends or family members to pitch in. Take time to rest.
Do something for yourself each day. It doesn't matter how small it is.Whatever you do, don't neglect yourself.
Joining a caregiver support group
In a support group for caregivers, people may talk about their feelings and trade advice. Others may just want to listen. You can talk things over with other caregivers. This could give you some ideas for coping. It may also help you know you aren't alone.
In many cities, support groups are held in other languages besides English. There are also groups that meet over the Internet. Ask a nurse or a social worker to help you find a support group that meets your needs.
Caring for your body
You may feel too busy to think about your own health. But taking care of your body gives you strength. Then you can take care of someone else.
Keep up with your own health needs. Try to:
- Go to all your checkups
- Take your medicines
- Eat healthy meals
- Get enough rest
- Exercise
- Make time to relax
Did you have health problems before you became a caregiver? If so, now it's even more important to take care of yourself. Also, adding extra stressors to your life can cause new health problems. Be sure to tell your doctor if you notice any new changes in your body.
Finding meaning during cancer
Cancer causes many caregivers to look at life in new ways. They think about the purpose of life. And they often focus on what they value most.
You and your loved one may question why cancer has come into your lives. You may long for things to be like they were before the disease. But you may also see good things that come out of it, such as it bringing you closer. It's normal to see illness in both good and bad ways.
Cancer can affect one's faith in different ways. Some people turn toward their beliefs. Others turn away from them. It is common to question your faith during this time. For some, looking for meaning is a way to cope.
Some ways to find meaning are:
- Read or listen to uplifting materials.
- Pray or meditate.
- Talk with a priest, pastor, or spiritual leader.
- Go to religious or spiritual services.
- Talk to other caregivers.
- Look at books or brochures for people dealing with cancer. Ask for them at your place of worship. Also, check at libraries for these materials.
Going With Your Loved One to Medical Visits
Before you go
Your loved one may ask you to come to doctor visits. This may be a key role for you. Here are some tips for going to the doctor:
- Know how to get there. Give yourself enough time.
- Write down questions you need to ask. Also write down things you want to tell the doctor.
- Keep a folder of your loved one's health information. Bring this folder to each visit.
- Bring all the medicine bottles with you, or keep a list of the names and doses. Bring this list to each visit.
Talking with the health care providerSometimes, people have trouble with medical visits. They don't understand what the doctor says. Or they forget things. Here are some tips for talking with the health care provider:
- If you don't understand an answer, ask the question in a different way.
- If you need to know more, ask.
- Let your doctor or nurse know what your worries are.
- Before you leave the visit, make sure you know what the next steps are for your loved one's care.
- Take notes. Or ask if you can record the visit.
- Let the doctor know if your loved one has had changes or new symptoms.
Questions to ask the doctor or health care team
- What health records should we bring?
- How can we prepare for treatment?
- How long will the treatment take?
- Can he or she go to and from treatment alone?
- How can I help my loved one feel better during treatment?
- Can I be there during treatment?
- What are the side effects of the treatment?
- After treatment, what do we need to watch for? When should we call you?
- How do we file for insurance? Who can help us with insurance?
Asking about pain
Many caregivers say that they are afraid to ask about pain. They worry that it means the cancer is getting worse. Or some think that pain is normal, and their loved one just has to accept it. This is not true. People who have their pain managed can focus on healing. They can enjoy life more.
The doctor should continue to ask about pain and other side effects. But it's up to you and your loved one to be sure that the doctor knows about any pain your loved one feels. Pain can be managed during treatment. The key is to talk about pain and other symptoms at each visit. Your loved one does not have to suffer.
Don't be afraid to ask for stronger pain medicine. Sometimes larger doses help. These drugs rarely cause people with cancer to get addicted. Instead, they can help your loved one feel better. He or she will be able to focus on day-to-day things instead of being in pain.
Talking With Others
Your partner or spouse
Nearly all caregivers and their partners feel more stress than usual in their relationship. They must deal with many decisions and changes. Some couples find that their bonds get stronger during cancer treatment. Others find they get weaker.
Try to be open about your stress and its causes. You may want to:
- Talk about how each of you feels:
- Share how you are each coping.
- Look at things that are causing you both stress.
- Talk about choices you can make together.
- Try to be grateful for each other.
- Make time to focus on things besides cancer.
- Talk with your partner if you find that your sex life is different than it used to be. There can be many causes:
- You or your partner is tired.
- Your relationship feels strained.
- If your partner is the patient:
- Either of you may not feel good about how your partner looks.
- You may be afraid you will hurt your partner.
- The treatment might be affecting your partner's ability to perform. He or she may be in pain or depressed.
You can still be close as a couple in spite of these issues. Staying close is also about sharing feelings and understanding. You can:
- Talk about closeness and your sex life.
- Talk about your hopes for the future.
- Try not to judge each other.
- Protect your time together.
- Be patient and take things slowly.
- Talk to a counselor or your support group.
Other family members and friends
Did your family have problems before cancer? These problems are likely to be more intense now. This is true if you are caring for a spouse, child, or parent. Your new role as a caregiver may cause feelings you didn't expect.
Talk with the people close to you. Try to be open and caring. Ask a counselor to hold a family meeting if needed. During stressful times, ask someone else to update others about how your loved one is doing.
Dealing with help you don't need
Sometimes people offer help you don't need. Thank them for their concern. Tell them you'll let them know if you need anything.
Some people may offer unwanted advice. They may do this because they don't know what else to say. It's up to you to decide how to deal with this. You don't have to respond at all. Otherwise, thank them and let it go. Tell them you are taking steps to help your family.
Your kids
Children start to understand the world around them at a very young age. It is important to be honest with them. They need to know the truth about your loved one. Otherwise, they will think the worst. Let them know how you feel, too.
Some tips for talking with kids:
- Tell them about cancer. Let them know that there is nothing they did to cause cancer. And they can't catch it from someone else.
- Let them know their feelings are okay. Tell them you understand if they are upset, angry, sad, or scared. Remind them that no matter what happens, you will always love them.
- Tell them the truth with love and hope. Let them know that your loved one is getting good care and that you hope he or she will get well again. But don't try to promise them a good outcome if you aren't sure of one.
- Listen to them. Ask them how they feel and what they are worried about. If they're young, ask them to draw a picture or play with dolls to show you how they feel.
- Stay involved. You may be with your loved one who is sick more often right now. Try to spend time with your kids in any way you can. Take them to the store with you or eat meals with them. Ask them about their day. Leave them notes or call them when you can.
"If there's one thing that's come out of taking care of someone, it's that I've learned what's important really fast. And that's a lesson that I'll carry with me forever." - Jenny
As a caregiver, try to remember to:
- Strike a balance each day.
- Focus on your needs, too.
- Care for yourself while caring for your loved one.
- Make time for resting and relaxing.
Life-changing events often give people the chance to grow. They may help people see what's most important to them. Many say that caring for someone with cancer changed them forever. They used their strengths to support their loved one. And they learned more about themselves along the way.

The countdown is ON and in a matter of days, we'll finally see Raf Simons' first ever ready-to-wear collection for Christian Dior. The show takes place at 2.30pm on Friday afternoon during Paris Fashion Week and Simons - whose tenure at Jil Sander ended abruptly last season – is expected to bring his brand of modern minimalism to Dior's Jolie Madame customer. But which of Raf's A-list fans can we expect to see on the most covetable of FROWs? For starters, we've got our bets on the usual Dior crew, naturallement.
As the face of Miss Dior Cherie fragrance, Natalie Portman has graced many a Dior front row in her time and considering she arrived at the swanky dinner for LA Dance Project on Sunday night wearing a dreamy bustier gown from the designer's recent Couture collection (avec brand new blonde 'do) no doubt she'll want to champion the brand's new hire. Right?
Speaking of the glorious Couture collection, it saw a double whammy this weekend. On the very same night that Natalie was spotted in her princessy gown, Julianne Moore was working the Emmys' red carpet wearing the long-sleeved yellow number with a knitted cashmere top that hit the catwalk back in July. Might the fiery-haired actress make an appearance on Friday? Fingers crossed, peeps.
Raf Simons for Christian Dior Couture
But that's not all. Another Raf-for-Dior stunner made a red carpet appearance courtesy of Jennifer Lawrence who brought a refreshing twist to the Toronto Film Festival in a jaw-dropping multi-coloured print dress. She was followed by Marion Cotillard who arrived at the festival to promote her new film Rust & Bone wearing a demure grey frock with a flirty peplum.
In fact, Mademoiselle Cotillard also wore a Raf creation to the The Dark Knight Rises premiere in London - who could forget that orange-textured top and printed skirt accented with a gold metal waistband? Of course, we wouldn't expect anything less than a wardrobe brimming with Dior Couture from the face of the brand - but will she bag a FROW ticket too? One thing's for sure: we sure love her Parisian swishes.
Jessica Biel and Rachel Weisz have also donned a splash of Simons' Dior creations so here's hoping they'll add some Hollywood wattage to the proceedings. But whether you'll be watching for the FROW or catwalk action - or, like us, a bit of both - you can tune into Raf's RTW debut when it's live streamed here. Bring on the gorgeousness!
Emma Watson in Dior Couture
UPDATE: And here's another! Emma Watson rocked up to a special screening of her latest film The Perks Of Being A Wallflower in London on Wednesday night and became the third person in one week to wear a Raf x Dior creation. The Brit starlet surprised the fash pack with a more masculine ensemble than we're used to consisting of a black cut-off ballgown styled with black cigarette trousers for a OTM peplum effect. She topped off the look with the very same pointed Dior heels we saw on the catwalk as well as diamond Boucheron earrings and a silver Tiffany & Co. keys heart pendant necklace. Wouldn't it be fab if she put in a PFW appearance?

Kelly Osbourne has added some major length with a mass of purple hair extensions. She's been wearing her hair longer for the last weeks, and was recently spotted supporting a high, tight and rather heavy-looking pony tail this week in Mexico. Miss Osbourne is known for changing and re-inventing her beauty (and style) regime, and while she's been sporting purple locks for some time, her styling is anything but consistent.
She's topped the top-knot during London Fashion Week, worn it short and cropped, and went back to the 90's with a Gwen Stefani 'No Doubt' 'do while interviewing Tiffani Thieseen, aka Kelly Slater from Saved By The Bell fame. We love Kelly's daring looks, and are inspired by her ability to rock those extensions so effortlessly. But Kelly isn't the only celeb to take on extensions, as Hollywood starlets and other celebs are constantly changing up their 'do's in front of the cameras.
The hair chameleon Katy Perry is as comfortable adding length as she is chopping it all off. She's recently worn her hair in big, soft dark waves, complimenting the cooling weather (and her beau, John Mayer). British singing sensation Jessie J has also become fond of hair extensions, as she's ditched her signature hard, black bob for softer, caramel waves. And Kelly Rowland knows how to update her existing extensions by alternating between sleek and straight with bouncy, tight curls.
Who do you think rocks the extensions best? Take a look through our gallery of our top gals with extension know-how.

Trading Report: Wall Street Insiders Expect Something Really BIG To Happen Soon…
by Michael Snyder
Why are corporate insiders dumping huge numbers of shares in their own companies right now? Why are some very large investors suddenly making gigantic bets that the stock market will crash at some point in the next 60 days? Do Wall Street insiders expect something really BIG to happen very soon? Do they know something that we do not know? What you are about to read below is startling. Every time that the market has fallen in recent years, insiders have been able to get out ahead of time. David Coleman of the Vickers Weekly Insider report recently notedthat Wall Street insiders have shown "a remarkable ability of late to identify both market peaks and troughs". That is why it is so alarming that corporate insiders are selling nine times as many shares as they are buying right now. In addition, some extraordinarily large bets have just been made that will only pay off if the financial markets in the U.S. crash by the end of April. So what does all of this mean? Well, it could mean absolutely nothing or it could mean that there are people out there that actually have insider knowledge that a market crash is coming.

SPANISH RELIEF Bulletin of the National Joint Committee Officers : Chairman: The Duchess of Atholl M.P.; Vice-Chairmen: The Earl of Listowel, Miss Eleanor Rathbone, M.P.; Hon Treasurer: Viscount Cecil of Chelwood. P.C., K.C.; Hon. Secretaries: Mr. D.R. Grenfell M.P., Capt. J.R.J. Macnamara M.P., Mr. Wilfred Roberts M.P.; Hon. Administrator: Mr. G.T. Garratt; Organising Secretary (Basque Children): Miss Betty Arne; Asst. Secretary: Miss Olga McCleland; 53 Marsham St., S.W.1. Tel Victoria 2168. ORGANISATIONS Save the Children Fund, Service Council of Society of Friends, Spanish Youth Foodship Committee, Southern Spanish Relief Committee, Spanish Medical Aid Committee, Spanish Women's Committee For Help to Spain. Bulletin No 10. DECEMBER, 1937. PRICE 1d. WHAT SORT OF CHRISTMAS FOR THE BASQUE CHILDREN? SECURITY THE FINEST GIFT SINCE the last Bulletin appeared, between two and three hundred children have gone home to their parents, and by the time this is in the hands of our supporters the number will have increased to about eight hundred. Requests have been received for not more than a thousand children, and some of these are doubtful. It must be a great source of comfort that Dame Janet Campbell and Dr. Norman White were able to report, after handing over the first detachment of children, that they were quite convinced that they were claimed by their parents and that they were happy to be reunited. There has been a justifiable feeling of bitterness among many who have worked with great self-sacrifice on behalf of the children to maintain them and to make quite sure that nothing be done to their disadvantage, that so much misrepresentation has raged around them. It is difficult sometimes to speak with moderation of some of the twisting of facts and vituperation which have been used in the course of attacks on the Basque Children's Committee in connection with this very knotty problem of returning children to their parents. Much confusion was caused right at the beginning by designating it a repatriation problem. It should be sufficiently clear by this time that we have always regarded it our sole responsibility to do the best for the children, to protect them from any war dangers and to return them, in due course, to their parents. At length we have steered our way through. A number of the children have now been returned to parents who eagerly desire them. What is the Position Now? We first decided in May last year to bring to this country and support 2,000 children. At the last moment that number was increased to 4,000. Some have gone back to their parents. Yet these represent only about a quarter of all the children; and we still have to support in this country, and gladly undertake to support, many hundreds more than the original 2,000 for whom we budgeted. While requests may be received from time to time for the sending home of further children, it becomes more clear every day that in many cases the parents are at the present time untraceable, and many hundreds of others are refugees suffering most pitiably in other parts of Spain. There would be little point in returning at the present time, children who have had their health rebuilt in this country, are well clothed and well-fed and receiving education, to parents in Eastern Spain in areas where there is a complete lack of milk, where children are dying from starvation and are threatened by epidemics. Funds Must be Kept Up So it is clear that support must be continued. It is costing head office, quite apart from what is being done most nobly by many local Committees, at least £700 a week to keep the children. Our friends should be quite clear that one of the objects of those who are carrying on a campaign against the children for their return has been achieved. The funds of the Basque Children's Committee have been very seriously affected, and large grants are being made towards the upkeep of the children by the National Joint Committee at a time when help is also urgently needed in Eastern Spain. We must record with deep gratitude that the International Co-operative Alliance has just given us a further thousand pounds, insisting that it shall be used for the maintainence of children in this country. One or two other large gifts have also been recently received. Such support at the present time is encouraging; we urgently hope that other Co-operative organisations, who have in the past, as recorded in the Bulletin, already helped us most generously, will continue to do so. More from Everyone Wanted We must call for further support from every kind of person and organisation if our work is to be carried out. In particular, we believe that many churchpeople would be glad to increase the support which has already been given by many Christian churches and organisations.

Dog SleddingFrom the very beginning, dog sledding has been a part of the Skytop experience. You can follow in our founders' tracks through the Pocono mountains, except up here, you can do it year-round. We offer sleds in the winter and carts or UTV's in the summer. Join us for training and to learn about how our huskies live up here at Skytop. As you can imagine, they live pretty well.
With over 15 years in racing sled dogs, Kim Darst, Skytop Lodge's dogsled tour guide, lead the first NJ team to qualify, enter, and run Iditarod, The Last Great Race. We pride ourselves with happy, healthy dogs while providing a variety of fun and educational experiences. You can come, relax, and see our Iditarod PowerPoint presentation or take a ride behind our Iditarod dogs.
With snow on the ground, sledders will get to experience hitching a ride with a selected few of our Iditarod team of sled dogs for a 1 hour tour. Guests get to drive the sled with Kim while getting private instruction on how to drive and what to look for on this outdoor adventure.
We also offer dryland training runs on a golf cart or UTV when there isn't any snow outside. This tour will take guest to the beautiful Ladder Falls where our dogs can stop for water while you enjoy the breathtaking scenery. Listen to stories from Iditarod about how to keep warm, how to melt snow, and what it is like to go 1000 miles on a dog sled in temps way below zero on this 1 hour long tour! When taking the UTV out, the full Iditarod team will lead riders on a 2 hour tour.
Full kennel guided tours are available to meet the dogs and find out how we care for them.

Kickstarter success story Vers, Inc. has announced plans to start shipping its 1Q speaker very soon.
In case you missed it, the 1Q is a handcrafted wood speaker, designed to work with mobile devices via Bluetooth. Besides looking smooth in wood, it's also small enough to go in the palm of your hand.
The 1Q is a 3-inch wood cube, which packs in support for Bluetooth v2.1. It boasts a 30-foot range and 10 hours of battery life. One nifty feature is built-in auto switching, which can convert the unit from mono to stereo, if another unit is linked.
The company first introduced the product on the funding site Kickstarter about a month ago. With 7 days left on the pledge drive, the company has exceeded its original $10,000 goal by over $100K. From there, the company plans to focus on delivering orders, with a target date of November.
"The response to the 1Q on Kickstarter has been simply amazing, and has exceeded our expectations 10X," says David Laituri, founder of Vers and 1Q designer. "We've also gotten a lot of feedback for our approach from the Kickstarter community, a great co-development experience for everyone at Vers!"
If you're worried about what the fanfare is doing to our natural resources, Vers says it's working with The Arbor Day Foundation and the U.S. Forestry Service to plant 100 new trees for each one used in 1Q production.
The Vers 1Q is available in Walnut, Bamboo, and a limited Kickstarter red Beech edition. A $95 pledge will secure you one 1Q unit, or you can wait until its official release and pay the $119.99 list price.Follow Electronic House on Facebook and Twitter.

Padua was the Republic of Venice's 'second city' and the seat of its university. When the Venetian nobility went, for their summer vacation, to their country seats on the mainland, they often travelled via Padua, attending the basilica's patronal festival on the way. Vivaldi was very familiar with this ceremony, since both he, and before him his father, were on several occasions recruited to the orchestra that participated in it. Indeed, in 1712 he wrote a violin concerto for the feast (RV212) in which he himself took the solo part.
The opening aria depicts the gentle wafting of the breezes in terms familiar to those who remember the first movement of Vivaldi's 'Spring' Concerto from The Four Seasons, testing the vocal soloist's virtuosity. The recitative focuses on the miraculous tongue of the saint, uncorrupted even after his death. A second aria calls on the whole of nature to recount Antony's deeds, and an exuberant, concerto-like 'Alleluia' rounds off the work.

2008 CEO Forum: Conservation Compact
Utilities test new models to encourage investments in efficiency and conservation.
today. In our industry, the vast majority of players don't want competition because it will be bad for them. But consumers are voters, who elect politicians and appoint regulators. Ultimately what's best for the consumer will prevail.
The benefits I'm talking about have to be proven in Texas. We're aggressive in delivering our smart energy product, and proving our customers will use less electricity and be happier with the product than they were before.
I don't expect the industry will change very quickly. We will have a lengthy debate, but time will prove competition is a superior model and can deliver an energy efficiency solution better than can a regulated model.
