Clomid question
Find a Conversation
|Wed, 11-17-2010 - 7:52am
I have already done the 6 months of Clomid with no results, and we are going to take a TTC break during the hoildays (we have enough to worry about) I was talking to my Dr about if/when I could give Clomid another go..........I was just wondering what other Docs had to say about how long of a break you should take...2 months, 4 months, 6 months, etc.....I have had some issues with my Dr. in the past but haven't been able to find anyone that will add a new person to their load that doesn't have insurance (we req payment plans) so I am turning to ya'll to see if what he told me sounds about right....or if he was just feeding me the in-general line!
|Wed, 11-17-2010 - 8:02am
no, I have not tried that, nor has it been brought to my attention. i will def look into it.....would I need to wait before trying it.....hmmmmm....google here i come
|Wed, 11-17-2010 - 8:04am
and as far as the payment plans go.....he has been my dr for over 5 years, and I worked for the state when i started seeing him.....I keep them updated on employment and thy have never had a issue.....but that could change any day now with the way things are in the world

I would ask your doctor about Femara. I decided to use Femara instead of Clomid because it has less side effects and doesn't thin the lining like Clomid can. I have read that Femara could work for people who do not respond to Clomid.
Good luck.

Clomid did not work for me and I had too many side effects. However, my doctor put me on Letrozole (Femera) and after the 2nd cycle I got pregnant and I barely had any side effects. I hope this helps.
|Wed, 11-17-2010 - 10:11pm
I know for me, due my age (41) that my RE will only let me do Clomid for 4 cycles - after that, women my age plateau so this will be our last go on Clomid/IUI. We have a consult to talk to him about what would be next steps if this last IUI doesn't work, and if we would choose to do anything more...

Brass, woodwinds, organs and piano mix with haunting melodies and eerie guitar lines on California multi-instrumentalist Maston's upcoming LP Shadows, out via Trouble in Mind on February 12.
Pitchfork premieres the first track from Shadows, "Young Hearts" today: On "Young Hearts," he seamlessly moves from spooky organ jabs to sweet harpsichord melodies while singing an unsettling love song. Throughout the track, he's constantly altering dozens of layers-- changing volumes, textures, and overall moods to craft an erratic, unpredictable composition with a sentimental pop song at its core.
For more about Maston, find him on Facebook, BandCamp and at Trouble in Mind.

On Tuesday it was reported that a man from Taiwan asked cops to send him back to prison (seemingly out of desperation). He was unemployed, and had been released from prison only two years back.
When police found the 45-year-old convicted arsonist lying on a street in a popular Taipei shopping district, he requested a return to life behind bars, nostalgic for the 10 years he had already served, the China Post newspaper reported.The original article can be found here.
Wang had also contacted police separately with his request, a spokesman said. Officers who found him bought him a boxed lunch but declined to send him back to prison, the police spokesman said.
"We advised him to keep looking for work," he said. "I don't know why he can't find a job. Maybe employers think he's not suitable or that he's too old."
Frankly, I can't blame the guy. I mean, in prison, they get three square meals a-day. They have food, clothing, a bed, usually a room to themselves or maybe they have a cell mate. They even get time for exercise and recreation, including watching TV. In prison, life is pretty much worry-free as far as day to day living goes.
Keep in mind, this occurred in Taiwan and their economy is fairing poorly. But the US is just as bad off. Do you think we might start to see more instances of this? Will unemployed, ex-convicts request to return to prison? What about those who are just everyday civilians who are unemployed? What/where/who do you think they'll turn to?

Eleven-year-old Jordan Brown has been charged as an adult for a crime that is becoming more and more common in the news: shooting a family member. In this case, the family member was Kenzie Marie Houk, the twenty-six-year-old fiancée of Brown's father (shown with her daughter). Houk, who was eight months pregnant, was asleep in bed when Brown shot her in the back of the head with a 20-gauge shotgun kept in his room. After shooting Houk Brown boarded the school bus as if nothing had happened. The police were notified when Houk's four-year old daughter told workers on the property she thought her mom was dead. Brown told police he saw a black truck on the property that morning, but an interview with Houk's seven-year-old daughter led police to take a closer look Brown, who later confessed. Despite Brown's father's insistence that there was no warning of the attack, family members claim he told Houk's nephew that he wanted to shoot her.
As devastating as this story is, my biggest question has to be this: why did an eleven-year-old boy have access to a loaded gun (not to mention the fact that it was in his bedroom)? With all of the stories of kids killing their parents in the news lately, do you think parents need to start re-thinking having guns in the house? Did you grow up with access to guns? Do you think kids should be educated on gun safety, or should guns simply be kept locked up?

Chloe and I figure we've dragged this out for long enough, so we might as well end it with a bang. As she said, we hope you'll continue to break down the novel and discuss it with others, and we hope you'll enjoy this last installment of the Vox Box Book Club.
7. Compare and contrast the lives of Max and Liesel. How does Max's life give Liesel purpose? What is the significance of "The Standover Man?"
8. Death says that Liesel is a girl "with a mountain to climb." What is her mountain? When does she reach the summit? What does she discover on her descent?
9. Hans Junior calls his father a coward for not belonging to the Nazi party. How did it take courage to oppose Hitler? How do the Hubermanns demonstrate courage throughout the novel?
10. Discuss Liesel's friendship with Rudy. How does it grow and develop through the novel? Why is it so hard for Liesel to love Rudy? Why does Liesel tell Mr. Steiner that she kissed Rudy's body?
11. How does Zusak use the literary device of foreshadowing to pull the reader into the story?
12. How does Liesel's life represent beauty in the wake of brutality? How does Zusak's writing style reflect this?
Last night, Obama's address not only challenged the economy and our current state of financial affairs, but also questioned our level of patriotism and involvement as a population.
This is a very serious matter, I agree. Yet the question on my mind was about Hilary; Which view does she like more? The seat above that she took during Clinton's term - the place that Michelle occupied as First Lady? - Or the seat below that she took last night as our Secretary of State?
Which seat do you guys think she's better suited for; a position as First Lady or certified cabinet-member? Which would YOU rather take?
Yes - here it is, it actually came:….*drumroll please*…..the end of The Book Thief. We're bringin' this amazing work of literature full circle and ending it here. As Caitlin and I post the pre-formulated Discussion Questions, we hope you'll continue to really question each section of The Book Thief and maybe have a lil' discussion with yourself, really dig in and chat it up here, (we won't call you crazy, we swear…)
So here we go - here's the wrap-up of a novel we've been working on since Christmas…
Over and out!!
$1 is going to save the economy? Well, according to Msnbc.com, Washington State thinks it's the best plan, "supposed to bring millions of dollars worth of food stamps to the state by March."
The state is sending out thousands of checks made out for $1 to "the state's neediest residents", all with the purpose to aid our current economic struggles.
When adding up the cost of paper and postage, this may not make much sense. (Helloo? I can barely buy a Sprite with a dollar…or anything off that 'Dollar Menu!'…) How is a buck supposed to help Washington's 250,000 resdidents on food stamps?
"We're trying to do this at a time when people need assistance the most," said Leo RIbas, head of community services at the Department of Social and Health Services. He says that the food stamp recipients can recieve this dollar for "energy bill assistance, that qualifies them for extra federal assistance….someone [on food stamps] could recieve about $30 more per month in food stamps."
I think I'm going to take my dollar to the pop machine…ooohh..
Is the buck-a-roo really worth it? Do you think the economy will balance out based on this check send-out?
If you're like most Americans, you'll want to be buried or creamated.
But exactly how safe is this for the environment?
Burial requires a decomposition below the surface, without oxygen, producing a sloppy mess that emits carbon dioxide into the soil. It is estimated that americans use more metal each year for coffins than was used to make the Golden Gate Bridge and enough concrete to build a two-lane highway from New York to Detroit. The embalming fluid used on corpses is another 800,000 gallon-discrepancy on Earth, leaking carcinogenic formaldehyde.
Creamation is much less environmentally impacting, (less muss, less fuss, after all.) Yet better still is a process called promession, a corpse gets freeze-dried with liquid nitrogen and then shattered into powder. The result is two parts—a powder, and a liquid that you could pour on your house plants.
So, you experimental types—why not turn yourself into the ultimate recycling project and donate your body to science? (Wink, wink..)
How about a 9-year-old boy charged with murder? You might've heard about the Arizona boy who confessed on video to killing his father and another man last November with a .22-caliber handgun obtained from his house. At the time he was 8-years-old, and heading home from school. He told police he decided to walk around the block "like nine or 10 times" before going home — something he does on Mondays and Wednesdays "because my mom doesn't get off until 5."
In the confession video the boy denied shooting the men first but later confesses that he shot both men twice, saying, "After I shot him once he was still moving, I think I shot him again."
The officers ask whether the boy was mad at his father, but the answer is not audible.
On Thursday, the boy pleaded guilty to one count of negligent homicide. The boy will remain in the custody of the state until he is 18. He will undergo a psychiatric evaluation to determine whether he should be placed in a juvenile detention center; in a therapeutic facility; in a foster home or with his mother, who is divorced from the boy's father.
What do you think? Should the boy had been charged as an adult? If the boy is not convicted of any other crimes before he turns 18, the county will clear his juvenile record; is this fair? Though the motive for the killings remained unclear, there was no evidence that physical abuse had taken place in the home before the shootings like some speculate.
In the true and individualistic spirit of a self-made, free market capitalistic pig-dog, I am starting (right now) a weekly collection of quotes from various conservative figures, both modern and historical, with no regard to what the welfare-dependent socialists up top think about it. After all, I'm rich, influential, and unethical enough to buy out this company, aren't I? This will veer in and out of seriousness and satire, as well as in and out of praise and criticism for the conservative viewpoint and the representatives of conservatives throughout history. The manner it's done in will be scatterbrained and confusing.
In the true and arrogant spirit of a freethinking, politically-correct pinko, I am starting (right now) a weekly collection of quotes from various liberals, both modern and historical, without regard to what the fascists up top think of it. After all, I'm entitled to my absolute and unquestionable freedom, aren't I? This will veer in and out of seriousness and satire, as well as in and out of praise and criticism for the liberal viewpoint and the representatives of liberalism throughout history. The manner it's done in will be scatterbrained and confusing.

Cash's 'mouse-baby wine' will be a tough act to follow - really how can anything compare to the visual of …well…he summed it up perfectly with that ending "Squeak"…but his post got me thinking about our future…(and hopefully that there won't be more baby creatures made into beverages.) One thing we do know? - There will be no more wondering what the end of the world will look like; this artist has given us every visual example we need….with food.
Photoimagist Carl Warner shares his view of what the apocalypse could look like with 'mmmmazing' pictures of food made to represent scenery.
io9.com brings some life to this piece as a "black olive-and-watermelon ship sails through a sea of cabbage seeking revenge on vegeterians who have virtually annihilated the entire fruit and vegetable population…"
Whoa - Annihilated the produce available to the world? That's intense…
How about them' apples?….
Specifically, baby mouse wine.
It's been several years since I last left South Korea, but I still hold a high and consistent, if not overly detached pride, for my now-thriving homeland. Less than a century ago, the Korean peninsula was being ravaged by Japanese rule and warfare, infamously splitting into two and arriving at a still unstable peace with the armistice between the North and the South. Until the late 80's, it was under dictatorial rule, and of course in 1990, bore the undesirable responsibility of bringing me into the world.
Simply stated, despite currently having an incredible advantage of Western support and economic success over its northern brother—who, despite sharing culture, blood, and language with the South has been dealt so poor a hand by fate and atrociously fascist rule that it has officially been declared a "failed state" by Fund for Peace—South Korea has not had it easy. Despite my inherent pride as a native, I have loved the nation much like I love America: unconditionally and with empathy, but with the cynicism, disappointment, and criticism that any non-Utopian society inevitably inspires in me.
The reasons are the same for either country. Materialism, conformity, anti-intellectualism, and a corny, toned-down Americanization are all prominent in my childhood memories of South Korea. It is, really, the epitome of my traditionally Korean mother's philosophy on life: "You go Ivy-League school, you be doctor or lawyer, you make million dollars, you marry pretty woman, you buy nice house, you drive nice car, or else I won't love you." And this was my view, however superficially arrived at, of the entire South Korean culture.
How delighted I am, then, to see what is becoming of Korea. Of course, it is quite the economic superpower, Hyundai and Samsung among the international monoliths of their corporate kin. But aside from that, it is becoming culturally aware. But there is one thing for which my culture is responsible that is so thoroughly and uniquely reprehensible that all of my optimism may as well have never risen at all.
Baby Mouse Wine. Yes, that is exactly what it sounds like, and yes, it is possible. Baby Mice, fermented in large packs for about a year and tossed into jugs for the sake of inebriation. Despite being used as a supposed medicine throughout Korea, it seems more along the lines of a beverage designed for sadists and masochists, people who think along the lines of, "how can I make myself suffer, while knowing that a tiny animal had to suffer in order for me to suffer?" Someone willing to digest other disgusting results of the foreign food market such as Balut, Pacha, Monkey Brain, and Lutefish (which you will need to google, as I am ethically opposed to revealing them on this blog, though monkey brain is rather self-explanatory).
If I were dared, offered a large cash sum and a long-term relationship with Angelina Jolie, I would still be reluctant to put a drop of this stuff inside of me. Just looking at it hurts.
Remembering that this is not actually an accurate representation of the every Korean ever, just as dog-eating and phallic insufficiency are not, tell me: would you consider, on a strong enough dare, to allow this stuff into your stomach?
It's an often-heard complaint after the release of the newest book-to-film movie; Why does that suck? In our society, it seems to be a given that the book will always be better than it's movie adaption.
What's going on with this translation from the pages to the silver screen? Willing Davidson, author of Great Book, Bad Movie, says it's all a matter of time.
"The answer is simple, but it has complex implications: Novels are long, but movies are short," he says. A wide range of movies suffer from this limitation, Davidson listing those such as Harry Potter, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, and The Da Vinci Code as examples.
Davidson notes that time isn't the only issue, we're also left with that one main character that's always in need of some lovin'. "The movie replaces character with plot, and the result lands with a wet flop," he notes. The movie adaption often revolves around the breakthrough plot points, moving our focus onto the surroundings and away from the complexities of the characters.
What's YOUR favorite book-to-film movie? Did the film do the original work justice? Do most movies based on books indeed suck?
We've all seen those Progressive commercials with the car insurance shoppers literally "shopping" for car insurance, and the gimmick always seems to be "name your price." With a struggling economy, cost has become the primary means of competition among companies, although quality definitely remains a factor as well.
For one London restaurant, "name your price" has become a head turning idea.
Obviously, the U.K. is experiencing a slightly different economic situation than the United States. A recession is underway, and a "credit crisis" has affected everyone. The Little Bay restaurant has begun to make waves with its revolutionary pricing. Like Progressive Car Insurance, The Little Bay restaurant has adopted a "name your price" system.
Peter Ilic, the owner of four restaurants including The Little Bay, encourages his customers to evaluate the meal and service and to pay whatever they feel is appropriate.
Ilic boasts an increase in revenue because of customers' payment methods. Many will overpay in an effort not to offend anyone nor to feel embarrassed.
Peter Ilic reiterated his theory as he stated, "It just seemed the right thing to do with everyone under the cash and feeling pretty miserable."
As every Idol fan knows, tonight is the first night that we get to vote for our favorites. The Top 36 contestants were chosen last week, and now it's up to the public to chose.
As you are watching Idol tonight, pay attention to who seems to be getting a lead, and who just won't make the cut.
Was there anyone who should have made it into the Top 36 but didn't? Am I the only one who thinks Nick Mitchell and Tatiana Del Toro need to be drop kicked out of the state of California?

Two movie tickets and plenty of laughs later, I still can't figure out why someone wouldn't enjoy Paul Blart: Mall Cop! I watched this film at the theaters twice: once with "the guys" and once with "the girls."
I loved the original plot; Paul Blart is a security guard/officer ("big controversy—sure you've heard of it…oh, well—you will!") at a huge metropolitan mall, and the holidays have struck. Black Friday is peeking out around the corner with its knack for trouble.
The biggest shopping day of the year maintains its mischievous reputation when Blart and the rest of the security department are betrayed by one of their own. Hostages are taken, threats are made, money is transferred, and a McDonald's Happy Meal is requested (you had betta believe it).
Does one man have the power to rescue the people he swore to protect? Does that same man have the ability to defend his mall from invaders with Santa's Reindeer's names?
Blart leads the life of a hopeless romantic who has filled this void with sweets, sweets, sweets, and his commitment to his mall. He reluctantly agrees to begin dating again when his daughter and his mother remind him of a promise he made to himself a year ago. Paul falls head over heels for Amy, a small business owner in the mall. This romantic "spark" first inspires Blart to take on the criminals himself when he recognizes that Amy is one of the hostages.
So here are my questions. What do you think of the film? Have you seen it? Did you find it cute or corny? Why or why not?
The state of Nevada has announced a plan to increase the deer population by reducing the number of mountain lions. Animal activists are outraged at the plan, saying that housing developments, drought, and automobile accidents are more detrimental to the deer population than are mountain lions. Kevin Mayer, director of the Nevada Department of Wildlife, says "it's not an effort to exterminate mountain lions. It's an effort to better manage lions with the prey base. Some hunters think the solution to the deer population is to kill a lot of lions and the deer will come back."
The biggest problem with this idea is stated by Mayer himself. It's the hunters who want less lions around. Mountain lions are being blamed for the low deer population, meaning less deer can be hunted. Due to the large number of hunters in the Northwest, the pressure to the Nevada Department of Wildlife might have been great enough to convince them to pass the new plan. Scott Raine, a hunter and wildlife commissioner, said that studies show mountain lions eat about one "deer-sized" animal a week. Raine did not comment on how many deer hunting permits were given out to human hunters this year.

Is this the right solution to increase the deer population? Should more mountain lions be hunted, or do hunters just want less competition? What do you think of hunting?

It's the age-old activity for Valentine's Day; many pop in a movie, cook up some popcorn, then sit down and enjoy the cpmpany of loved ones. Here are the classics…
When Harry Met Sally
Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal see sparks fly in New York City. (I LOVE the resturant scene…gets me every time..:D)
Breakfast at Tiffany's
Any Audrey Hepburn fans? She's amazing as Holly Golightly in this love story. She has a really adorable cat too…
This movie proved to fans everywhere that tragedy is often really romantic and enjoyable. Not many can pull off drowning as handsomly as Leonardo DiCaprio.
The Notebook
Ya…Nicholas Sparks really nailed this one. I'll bet that every girl out there knows what I'm talkin' about with this tear-jerker. (I'll bet most guys understand too…)
Kind of untraditional, underground-hit - but amazing just the same. A love story between two teenagers and a lot of 'slushie' references…it's a classic.
What's YOUR favorite lovey-dovey movie? What are you plans for today?
I understand reality television has not always been the classiest genre of television, but for goodness sake people! E! television channel is set to premiere a new reality show in March called Hot Girls in Scary Places. And yep… you guessed what it is! Girls placed in scary castles with cameras.
Ugh. At least it beats the VH1 reality shows. I can't even watch the theme songs for them. How are these shows getting good enough ratings to even be on television? Come on America!
I've watched Conan O' Brien since I was in elementary school, staying up far past any reasonable person would just to get glimpses of manoras on wheels and bears in diapers with lewd behavior. I hope dearly that none of the show's previous vulgarity or material is sacrificed for the move, but seeing as Colbert stole Conan's invisible hip strings, it's apparent that at very least, a little piece of the original show will not be going with it.
What are your favorite late night television hosts and why are none of them Carson Daly?
Authorities reported on Thursday that twelve pedestrian arrests occured in Nigeria after the deaths of 84 children from a tainted batch of teething medication.
This medicine, bearing the brandname "My Pikin", was found to contain a solvent usually present in antifreeze and brake fluid. This chemical, diethylene glycol, has been responsible for 110 ill children since November, all cases which stemmed from the very same batch. A high concentration of this is capabale of damaging the kidneys, heart, and nervous system. And, obviously, of killing people on a mass scale. Most unfortunately, in this case, all of said people were within the range of two months to seven years of age.
Five arrested suspects came from the manufacturing company of My Pikin, the rest being members of the chemical company which sold the diethylene glycol. All suspects have been bonded out of imprisonment, but if caught will serve fifteen years in prison or, for some reason, a $3,380 dollar fine, which, though an amount worth much more in Nigeria than America, gives me a bad impression of the Nigerian justice system. Not that I know anything at all about it, but concerning the fact that responsibility for murdering eighty-four infants and children garners a strange choice of either prison time or a simple fine, its quality and fairness don't seem too likely to reveal themselves to me any time soon.

A defunctional Russian nuclear satellite and a still-active U.S. Iridium satellite smashed into each other 500 miles over Siberia on Tuesday, and some scientists call the accident "catastrophic."
Simulations by software company AGI explain why— together, the satellites weighed over 3,000 pounds, have created hundreds of pieces of debris, and the multitude of space junk orbiting earth prior to the collision is estimated at 17,000 pieces.
The collision occured about 500 miles from earth-a popular orbit space for satellites. And there's no global air traffic control system that tracks the position of all satellites. (AP)
An artist's impression of the cloud of debris over earth shows Russia's hopes that the collision would force the new U.S. administration to address the issue of debris in space.

You'll get more bang, (or at least more bun…) for your buck with these little sliders. Sold in 2 or 6-pack cardboard boxes for $1.39 or $4.09, respectively. (They even have mini BREAKFAST sammies! Little cheese and little eggs on top of little bacon, sausage, or ham. Gosh, they make eating look really cute…)
Mini Coopers
Ever seen the 'Italian Job'? Ya - coolest movie ever and all the cool bank-robbers drive color coordinated Mini Coops…they are the epitome of cool.

Look at those adorable floppy ears…that's really all that needs to be said. They're just out there looking for a hug…(and someone to play fetch with.)
What is some of YOUR favorite down-sized stuff? Is 'mini' really better, or just a sign of the diminishing economy? (Either way…it's stinkin' adorable…)

A teen in Middletown, Ohio ordered more than $37,000 of candy online while charging the bill to his former high school. (I don't think I've ever even seen $37,000 worth of candy in my life…)
The candy company, The Goodies Factory, got suspicious when the purchase order came in for thousands of lollipops and candy bars. Msn.com reports that detectives "contacted the school and [told the company to] send an empty box."
The teen was arrested upon delivery - Yup…the teenager had the candy shipped to his home address. (duh…)
He's now facing two counts of felony telecommunications fraud.
Rate this potential heist on a scale from 1 - 10. 10 being 'Bond-worthy' and 1 being..well..you know…terrible. What do you guys think?
By now you've probably all heard about allegations being made against pop star Chris Brown for supposedly beating his girlfriend, singer Rihanna. Although initially efforts were taking to keep her name a secret, reports of leaked that she has canceled her Friday concert in Malaysia and her 21st birthday.
She'll bounce back from it, but do you think Chris Brown will have his massive teenage girl fanbase anymore?
Violence is not acceptable in teenage relationships! This shows that it can happen to anyone.

After reading the 14 babies post, I thought about the experiences I have had with multiple babies. There aren't very many. I expanded it to taking care of baby(s) single handedly. I babysit, but very rarely do I get to take care of babies. However, as part of the Child Development class at our school, students are expected to take home a RealCare baby for 1 weekend. The baby functions much like a real baby does: it cries, it gets hungry, needs to be fed, can experience Shaken Baby Syndrome, and requires actual care.
During a simulation, Baby cries to be cared for as a real infant would. The participant must determine what Baby needs and respond in a timely manner. Baby must be fed, burped, rocked and diapered around the clock.
Baby tracks its care (rocking, diapering, feeding, burping) and safe handling. Detailed data can be downloaded after the simulation, including exact times of missed care events, and specific mishandling—Shaken Baby, head support failure, wrong positioning and rough handling.
How realistic a view do you believe this represents for parenting? It is primarily used in teen parenting classes or Child Development classes. It's definitely not like the real thing, but do you think it would deter a potential mother from having a baby in her teen years? Have you ever cared for one of these babies? What was your experience like?
Nadya Suleman has outgrown her childhood. She grew up as an only child. Now she longs for a family, and she will do anything for it. The mother of fourteen children deflects the glares she receives from other families; she denies being selfish whatsoever.
Nadya recently gave birth the octuplets, and science has proven that this number of children cannot be born safely. Mental, physical, and even social problems are sure to arise. The kids are under close medical supervision right now as they begin to live their tender lives together.
In addition to her newborns, Nadya has six other children who are all younger than seven years of age, and she intends to raise all of these children independently in her own fashion. Suleman is not currently married, and she is working toward a degree at college.
Why? Why is someone who has no substantial or steady income so set on raising fourteen children? Why is Suleman so stubborn in her quest for a family?
In an interview with Anne Curry, Suleman said, "All I wanted was children. I wanted to be a mom. That's all I ever wanted in my life. I love my children." Suleman is determined not to allow her children experience the loneliness of being an only child like she was.
Do you support Nadya for her decision? Is it safe for someone to raise this many children single-handedly? Is Nadya giving her children the love and attention that she claims she is, or is she blindly robbing them of a normal childhood and happiness?

For the past month, the British Humanist Association has organized and funded an advertising campaign on London buses. The ads, placed on London's well-known red doubledeckers, read: "There's probably no god. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life," and are set to end on Monday. Needless to say, the ads have sparked quite a bit of discussion in their relatively short lives.
The religious strife isn't over yet, though. On Monday, several Christian groups plan to strike back with their own campaign. The Christian Party ("a religious group that fields candidates for elections to the European Parliament") is planning to run bus ads declaring: "There definitely is a God. So join the Christian Party and enjoy your life." Another Christian group plans to advertise Psalm 53:1 ("The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God,"), and the Russian Orthodox Church is chipping in as well with an ad that reads: "There is a God, believe. Don't worry and enjoy your life."
These Christian groups argue that the atheist ads are hopeless and misleading, while the British Humanist Association is accusing the Christian ads to be too dogmatic and narrow. "Our ads were undogmatic and funny, with the addition of the 'probably' in line with the continuing openness of humanists to new evidence," said Hanne Stinson, chief executive of the British Humanist Society.
Question: What is your take on these ads? Are either of them offensive? Is this Christian response necessary, and were the atheist ads necessary in the first place?
This week, Colbert covers Obama's propechy of a Steeler victory, the failed sale of the Atlanta White House, and the reinstatement of holocaust denier Bishop Richard Williamson into the Catholic Church.
Blasphemy? Eh. It's all subjective. And, as Colbert stated (satirically), there are worse things in the world than blasphemy and heresy, including but not limited to denial of the holocaust.

As some of you may know, swimming monolith Michael Phelps was very recently caught in the act of marijuana use while in attendance at a party. Apparently, someone took a snapshot of him while he was proceeding with the inhalation of cannabis smoke from a vertically-designed water pipe, or, in the words of Cypress Hill, "taking hits from the bong". He was said to be very aware of how to use the device, leading to speculation that he has previously used marijuana on several occasions.
Phelps, who holds the well-known title of world-record Olympian in regard to number of gold medals, has been seen partying all around, whether in this instance or in his escapades with Playboy bunnies at Hugh Hefner's infamous mansion. As a result, many sponsors are threatening to drop him, while many fans are becoming ex-fans in disgust. Still, many support him, apathetic to his personal, victimless lifestyle choices as long as his swimming abilities remain consistently baffling.
Marijuana is not a performance-enhancing or addictive drug, but it is a frightening and disliked substance in traditionalist American culture, much like sexual promiscuity is not illegal but is frowned upon in role models such as Phelps. Do these aspects of Phelps' lifestyle and personality have the power to dampen his achievements? Are those who say he should be allowed to do what he wants correct, or should he dedicate more effort towards fitting a specific clean-cut image for the kids?
A man from the not-so-distant future goes back in time to stop the internet from ever having been invented. The internet, as he says, has turned his world into a wasteland; people remain isolated, each on his own computer, flaming each other, speading gossip, watching porn, and doing absolutely nothing else. Warning: some bad language.

Death's Diary: 1942
-Death makes an interesting statement very early into this section. "You want to know what I truly look like? I'll help you out. Find yourself a mirror while I continue." -What does he mean by this statement?
Death's Diary: Cologne
-Death notes that after the bombings, he treats the souls of the dead like luggage, carrying them in one hand or tossing them over his shoulder; only the children he carried in his arms, -Why does he not give all souls the same respect, especially innocent civilians like these?
Death's Diary: The Parisians
-In this section, Death states that he knows no more of God than we do, that God answers his questions just as infrequently as he answers ours. -Do you find this at all odd? Why do you think this is?
-After a depressing two pages about the Jewisn souls dying in the gas chambers, Part Six ends on this note: "They were French, they were Jews, and they were you." -What does this mean to you? What parallels do you see between the desperation of the dying Jews and our own lives?
-Throughout all three of these "diary entries," Death brings up colors, just as he has in the past. In the first section, he says that "there are soft, coal-colored clouds, beating like black hearts," in the second that "the sky was yellow, like burning newspaper," and in the third that the sky "turned from silver to gray to the color of rain." -Colors have been associated with death since the beginning of the novel. What significance to they have? Are they the actual colors of the sky at the time, or are they more metaphorical, representing something about the deaths themselves? Or are the both?
Thinking of the woman who sold the rights to choosing her baby's name on ebay, uncommon names might not have negative any effects on the child besides the chance of getting their "butt kicked." But a study that is getting a lot of media attention claims there is a connection between having an uncommon name and being more likely to be in the juvenile justice system. (The study finds this relationship to be true for blacks and whites.)
The confederate flag is seen by many as a symbol of racism and hatred, but according to an Associated Press article, some see it as a symbol of Southern heritage. Many public schools have banned wearing clothing with the confederate flag, but some students and parents are arguing that banning the wearing of the confederate flag is against students' rights to free speech. Cases concerning students wearing confederate flag apparel have shown up in courts across the country, and the verdicts have varied. Many have sided with the schools, agreeing the flags are disruptive in a learning environment.
Is it against students' first amendment rights to ban the confederate flag, or is it for the safety of others? Do kids who wear the confederate flag understand the meaning behind it, or are they just repeating their parents' beliefs?
Man - if only you all could have been there…well…those of you with strong stomachs, that is.
It was pretty brilliant, if I do say so myself. As you may recall during the big, bad (and incredibly awesome) VOX Blog-A-Thon, Jen put up a great post about some really crazy websites including a Physic Ant Farm, People Who Hate Beanie Babies,….and of course…the website in question - Wild Recipes. (threatening music…*dum dum dummmm…*)
Just like Jen said, the website features some gourmet (and totally insane…) cuisne like cheddar coffee and even chocolate covered hot dogs…this is where our hero, Rae, comes in. She came to the monthly Vox staffmeeting prepared - really prepared.
Out of a standard grocery bag she whipped out a lil' container of Hershey's syrup and a hotdog…her mission was laid out before her.
And…*drumroll please*…..she tried it. That's all I need to say. (You can get a decent description from the pictures….)
So, Rae is officially my hero; Anybody out there who has tried something as awesome (and insane!) as this? Another other weird combinations going on?

When being interviewed by USA Today, Stephen King really let his opinion of Stephanie Meyer, author of crazy-famous 'Twilight' saga, fly.
He compared her to JK Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series. According to King, "Both Rowling and Meyer, they're speaking directly to young people…The real difference is that Jo Rowling is a terrific writer and Stephanie Meyer can't write worth a darn. She's not very good."
King sees no depth to Meyer's writing, her books based on the love between a vampire and teenage girl. Is it just another 'teenage love story'?
"…It's very clear she's writing to a whole generation of girls and opening up to a safe joining of love and sex in those books. It's exciting and thrilling and it's not overly threatening because it's not overly sexual."
What do you think? Are the Twilight books based on the teenage summary of a relationship?
It seems our #1 Olympic gold medalist has fallen! Pictures have surfaced of swimmer Michael Phelps smoking marijuana in a British tabloid. Phelps has acknowledged the photos were him with a press conference earlier this week. He also apologized for his actions.

It seems to be an offense to even utter those two dreadful…(yet delicious) words: peanut butter.

And thanks to all this talk about how terrible these crackers are, I've never experienced cravings for them so badly. I'm almost willing to risk it…..but maybe not.
According to Associated Press, an Ohio-based distributor has cancelled two kinds of it's peanut butter after an "open containter tested positive for salmonella bacteria." King Nut Companies has asked customers to stop distributing under it's King Nut and Parnell's Pride brands with a code that begins with the number "8".
Upwards of 400 people throughout 42 states have become ill due to this outbreak of peanut butter-related salmonella.
Some Products to say NO To
All Austin Quality Foods crackers…(yup, even those delicious and addictive neon orange ones…)
Keebler PB'n J Flavored Snack Crackers
Famous Amos Peanut Butter Cookies
Granola bars featuring 'Peanut Butter Paste', such as some flavors of Luna Bars, as well as some Clif bars
Chef Pierre Chocolate Peanut Butter Silk Pie by Sara Lee
Landies Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
Perry's Ice Cream products
The FDA has a website that features a completely indepth list of all the foods to be wary of…
Forget the old line "Is your refridgerator running?" Eighteen-year-old Randal Ellis was sentenced to three years in prison after calling 911 and telling the operator he was on drugs and just shot his sister. He gave the operator a fake address. Miles away, the couple at the address Ellis gave woke up to police sirens, a helicopter, and a fully equipped SWAT team in their backyard. It became apparent after they were arrested that the call had been a prank.
This wasn't Ellis' first prank call to 911, however. In fact, it was his one hundred and eighty-fifth prank call. Prank calls like these are often called "swatting" calls because they usually involve SWAT teams. Not only do they target unsuspecting, innocent people, but they cost the city money. Even more importantly, they involve police that may be needed for an actual emergency elsewhere.
Read more about "swatting" here
What is the furthest you would go for a prank? Did Ellis deserve three years in prison? If not, did he deserve more or less?
The Pittsburgh Steelers emerged victorious in Super Bowl XVIII today when the team made a touchdown in the last two minutes to triumph over the Arizona Cardinals, who had been up by three points previously.
Pittsburgh's wide receiver Santonio Holmes secured the win to bring the final score to 27-23.
Today's game was the sixth Super Bowl that the Pittsburgh Steelers have won; now the team holds the record for the most Super Bowl games won.
The legacy of the Steelers continues…
What do you think? Are the commercials the "best part"? What's been you're favorite commercial (or commercials) so far?
For the record: I've enjoyed the Dorito and Budweisser commercials… In fact, here they are (my top 2!):
More Super Bowl Ads…
In a novel he published himself, Harry Nicolaides insulted royalty and was sentenced to three years in prison.
Nicolaides, 31, is an Australian novelist who was arrested five months ago for insulting a Thai king in his self-published novel. This controversial arrest relates back to the idea that anyone who "defames, insults or threatens the king, the queen, the heir to the throne or the regent" is subject to a prison term of up to 15 years.
"Verisimilitude," Nicolaides' novel, became published in 2005 and has yet to sell more than a dozen copies.
Nicolaides states, "I would like to apologize. This can't be real. It feels like a bad dream." He also admits to feeling as though he has experienced "unspeakable suffering" since he was arrested.
Would this situation have the same effect on Harry Nicolaides had he been an American and therefore entitled to freedom of speech? Does this right give people the right to write that freely? Where does the line lie where poor personal ethics become a legal issue?
Today is the day that either the Arizona Cardinals or the Pittsburgh Steelers will walk off the football field in Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, with pride in their hearts and victory wrapped around their fingers as Super Bowl rings.
The Steelers have a legacy already established, but that won't stop them from achieving even more. If the team gains a victory today, this will be their record sixth Super Bowl title. Coming into this monumental game, the Steelers are favored to win based on their season so far.
On the flip side, the Arizona Cardinals have emerged from the shadows of past team performances to be here today. "Dynasty vs. Doormat," an article in today's Spokesman-Review by Barry Wilner, labels the Cardinals "a franchise that has defined dysfunction since the 1950s."
I just gotta ask. Who are YOU rooting for? Will you cheer on the favorable Steelers, or will you root for the Cardinal underdogs?
Only one team will steal the win to become numero uno 2009.

Hi. How ya been? Probably busy, as most of the world seems to be.
I always think, "As soon as ______ is over, life will settle down." And I suppose if I had my way, it would. There would be breathing space between events. But I'm married to Eric. :)
As soon as Fall Launch was over, we were planning the birthday. And as soon as the church hit our 10-year milestone & partied hearty, that very week...we started meeting about Christmas. (I kid you not; on Monday, Eric started cranking his Christmas Pandora station at our house.) As if it's not enough that the weekends just keep coming...but special opportunitites to invite people to church just keep coming as well.
So. Life is good. And busy. I'm super thankful for for Sabbath Fridays. Every Friday is a day of rest for us. We do it intentionally, and we protect it fiercely. Hold on; Friday's coming. Fridays we breathe. That's why The Crossing is entirely closed on Fridays.
This weekend Eric and I are teaching together the last week of Picture This...Strong Marriage. We're sharing the 6 reasons our marriage is awesome. I'm excited because this is always fun, and it's not about preaching at you...it's about sharing about our marriage and saying, "This works for us. Maybe it could spark some ideas for you."
I'll go ahead and let the cat out of the bag here: This weekend we'll be announcing our first ever Marriage Retreat! You & your spouse can get away for 2 nights with us in January. Get a brochure this weekend & start making plans to join us at Oak Ridge Conference Center for delicious food (their food is AMAZING), encouraging conversation, and plenty of time to relax as a couple.
Next week our family is going to Israel! We've been planning this for a couple years. It's Braden's senior year, and he chose Israel for his "pick anywhere" trip. A few Crossing people are going with us, and you'll get to see some video footage on December 13/14 when we tell the Christmas story FROM the location of Jesus' birth!
I absolutely hate museums and historical sites, and I don't care much for history in general. (Which distresses Eric, who has a degree in History. ;)) BUT when I imagine what it will be like to walk in the very places Jesus walked...wow...It's going to be powerful.
I have a serious prayer request: please pray that our hotel has good coffee and half & half.
Thank you.
Speaking of coffee, I'm still stoked about Elk River getting a Starbucks, which is where I'm sitting right now with this guy:
I'm also stoked about the fact that God still hasn't let my Starbucks card run dry. I'm tellin' ya, when you involve God in your finances & day-to-day needs/desires, He loves showing off how much he loves you!
Hey - Moms - I want to mention this really quick because it's super important to me. This year we just started a MOPS (moms of preschoolers) group meeting the second & fourth Tuesday mornings of each month. This is for moms of children under age 5. Childcare is provided, and so is food, and encouraging speaker, and other moms who are in the same place of life as you. I can't stress this enough: DON'T do life alone. For info, contact our office at firstname.lastname@example.com. I absolutely LOVED MOPS when my kiddos were little. It helped me stay sane. :)
Something else I've been working on lately with Kelsey and Lisa is an expanded SHOP to benefit Haiti, for the first couple weeks in December. Save a little Christmas shopping money to pick up some gifts and stocking stuffers for those on your list and benefit our kiddos at Compassion for All Orphanage. We've been holding a selection of Haiti jewelry, mugs, ornaments, etc., to put out for Christmas. We're beefing up our book and Bible selection as well.
OOOOH, speaking of Lisa, her book released last week! You can buy it on Amazon! It's called Simple Generosity: Becoming a river of God's financial abundance. It will transform the way you look at God's provision, blessings, and generosity. Eric wrote the foreward. Get the book.
Well, I guess that's about all that's on my mind at the moment. I need to write a few thank-you notes and then get over to the Pour in Otsego, where we're planning a fundraising dinner for the Boys & Girls Club. I'll let you know about that soon via social media. (I'm pretty sure we're providing the band...) :) :) :)
As you go through your day, don't forget to involve God in every part of your life...that's what a relationship looks like. He wants to add His SUPER to your natural. When you let Him, He'll give you a clear path to walk and supply what you need for your journey.

Two state senators — one very liberal and the other very conservative — have joined efforts in the Maryland General Assembly to protect citizens' privacy from police unnecessarily using technology like drones to conduct searches.
Sens. Jamie B. Raskin and Christopher B. Shank, with the backing of the American Civil Liberties Union, will introduce four bills to regulate police use of drones, automatic license plate readers, email surveillance and location tracking so as to not infringe on privacy rights.
"It's getting Orwellian out there," Raskin (D-Dist. 20) of Takoma Park told reporters Tuesday morning.
Shank (R-Dist. 2) of Hagerstown called the situation a "slippery slope."
"I am not content to sit here and allow this current diminution of our privacy rights to get to a point that one day my children or grandchildren are going to wake up and government is constantly spying on them," he said.
Maryland last amended its privacy laws in 1988, he said.
Yet technology has vastly outpaced the law.
Raskin said the package of privacy bills aims to create a balance between law and technology.
Specifically, absent an emergency, the bills would require search warrants before looking at citizens' emails and online data as well as before tracking someone via their cell phone. It would impose limits and regulations on aerial surveillance by drones and prevent police from keeping, for longer than 90 days without cause, the license plate and location data collected by the automatic scanners.
In the House, the bills are cosponsored by Dels. Jeff Waldstreicher (D-Dist. 18) of Kensington, Alfred C. Carr Jr. (D-Dist. 18) of Kensington, Michael D. Smigiel Sr. (R-Dist. 36) of Chesapeake City and Samuel I. "Sandy" Rosenberg (D-Dist. 41) of Baltimore.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt
My name is Azrael!
Facts about Azrael
- Breed: Domestic Shorthair
- Color: Gray, Blue Or Silver Tabby
- Age: Kitten
- Sex: Male
- Hair: Short
Azrael's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, and good with cats.
Azrael is a brown tabby 2 month old kitten. While his color is mostly greyish with black stripes, he has a beige undertone which distinquishes him from his twin Obsidian. Azrael is very active! He loves to run and jump, and when he is done with play he loves to cuddle.
adoption fee includes: *Spay/neuter *Current vaccinations *Microchip *FIV/Felv blood test *Preventative deworming
Other Pets at Saving One Life
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Azrael, a Chandler Domestic Shorthair kitten was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Domestic Shorthair for sale in Chandler, or seeking a Domestic Shorthair kitten from a breeder in Chandler.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Chandler already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Chandler breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Domestic Shorthair breeders who help with Domestic Shorthair rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Chandler paves the way for another one to be saved.
