Last night, for just the third time this season, LeBron James went through the whole game without changing out of his new Nike LeBron 11 shoes. James came within one rebound and one assist of a triple-double, and led a late surge to help the Miami Heat pull away from the Cleveland Cavaliers. He looked very comfortably about his shoes, but the last time he wore the LeBron XI for four quarters he scored 35 point on 14 shots so let's wait and see what happens next. LeBron debuted a new Player Exclusive that he was previously seen wearing in practice. It's a Red, White and Silver colorway and it's not something you can cook up on Nike iD. Has Nike Basketball finally provided the fix for LBJ? Keep checking back for updates as the story unfolds.

End the Fed, Adopt MPE or the Fed will end USSubmitted by mms on Tue, 05/19/2009 - 16:15
"Whenever destroyers appear among men, they start by destroying money, for money is men's protection, and the base of a moral existence." Ayn Rand, aka, Alissa Zinovievna Rosenbaum (Born: February 2th, 1905 in Saint Petersburg, i.e., City of Saint Peter - Russia - Died on March 6th, 1982 in New York City)
If Ayn Rand would be alive today she surely would advocate the only objective solution to world's economic ills formulated under mathematically perfected economic conditions where there is always enough liquidity, i.e., cash in general circulation to cover all existing obligations & more. Mathematically Perfected Economy does not advocate China's style government which runs economic policies, but advocates what America's founding fathers had in mind under which they created the perfect union called American Republic. Auditing the Fed is the first step, abolishing the second & the third step would be to convince Congress to adopt MPE because since China is going to gold standard
We the People cannot allow USDollar to collapse - under MPE We can stop this madness by morning, & MPE is more pro free free market, i.e., speculation is a living prof that today we do not have a free market but speculators market, & gold bugs will prosper there too.
Solution is here, but this solution is not any good if no one knows about it. The solution is only potent if We the People know of its existence.
"The end of democracy and defeat of the American Revolution will occur when government falls into the hands of the lending institutions and moneyed incorporations. -(Since the Fed has been created, mms)
The Bank of the United States (the Fed) is one of the most deadly hostilities existing against the principles and form of our Constitution. The system of banking is a blot [defect] left in [unsolved by, and unfortunately tolerated by] all our Constitutions [state and federal], which if not covered [eventually solved and revoked] will end in their destruction. I sincerely believe that banking institutions are more dangerous than standing armies; and that the principle of spending money to be paid by posterity is but swindling futurity [on the greatest possible scale]."
Thomas Jefferson
"Three major religions have outlawed usury for thousands of years; and yet imposed across the world are currencies by which, if we merely maintain a vital circulation, can only perpetually multiply principal into ever greater, ever more usurious sums of debt. But worse, the pretended principles of purported modern "economics" are even inherently and inevitably terminal, because it is impossible to fulfill the obligation to service debt if we do not maintain a circulation, and because we can only maintain a circulation by re-borrowing principal and interest as subsequent sums of debt, perpetually increased in proportion to the circulation so much as periodic interest. Ultimately and inevitably then, every circulation subject to usury engenders a sum of debt which is terminal. " mike montage
mathematically perfected economy™ (MPE™) 1 : the singular integral solution of 1) inflation and deflation, 2) systemic manipulation of the cost or value of money or property, and 3) inherent, artificial multiplication of debt into terminal systemic failure; 2 : every prospective debtor's right to issue legitimate promises to pay, free of extrinsic manipulation, adulteration, or exploitation of those promises, or the natural opportunity to make good on them; 3 : our right to certify, to enforce, and to monetize industry and commerce by this one sustaining and truly economic process.

We can win the hearts and minds of non-hunters by being outspoken and resourceful users of our country's renewable source of wild-game meat.
Find out what "The Wild Within" host Steven Rinella can teach you about cooking wild game, his hunter-gatherer philosophy and much more.
I first found out about Steven Rinella when his award-winning book American Buffalo: In Search of a Lost Icon hit the scene in 2008. It was a terrific account of a buffalo hunt in Alaska's Wrangell Mountains woven together with the history one of America's most revered beasts. In those days he was just an author, and a fine one at that. Nowadays, they're calling him a modern day hunter-gather and cable's mainstream hunting star. His show "The Wild Within" debuted in January and was met with praise from viewers and critics alike.

Amazon Goes After Oracle (Again) With New Aurora Database 102
Posted by samzenpus
from the brand-new dept.
from the brand-new dept.
Sez Zero writes with news about the latest from Amazon Web Services. "Once again Amazon Web Services is taking on Oracle, the kingpin of relational databases, with Aurora, a relational database that is as capable as 'proprietary database engines at 1/10 the cost,' according to AWS SVP Andy Jassy. Amazon is right that customers, even big Oracle customers who hesitate to dump tried-and-true database technology are sick of Oracle's cost structure and refusal to budge from older licensing models. Still there are very few applications that are more "sticky" than databases, which after typically contains the keys to the kingdom. Financial institutions see their use of Oracle databases as almost a pre-requisite for compliance, although that perception may be changing."

Total game score doubling and weird residential level?
My score was around 700,000ish points and I went to the residential area right around 700,000 and all the scenery was white. The buses and minions holding the glass were there, but nothing else. Literally all white. I hit a bus very soon after getting there and my total score, banana count, and distance were doubled to 1,400,00ish, etc. Has anyone else have this happen?? I took screenshots of the residential area but I don't think I can post them here. I'm using a kindle fire hdx if that matters.

- A real treat!TreadwellsDined on 11/22/2014A friend recommended Treadwells, and was she ever right! The atmosphere is wonderful and the food was spectacular. We had the fish and chips and the skirt steak -both just scrumptious. Portions for lunch were just right. The wervice was friendly and attentive. Our favorite spot for the weekend. We'll be going back soon!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent food and serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 11/14/2014I think this is the best restaurant in Niagara-on-the-lake, great service, food is detail oriented and well done. The beet salad and the pork belly were excellent. The fish was perfectly cooked and the fresh pasta was wonderful. Service attentive without being bothersome. Excellent overallSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious and classyTheWaltonsDined on 11/7/2014This was a special occasion, we loved every aspect of this restaurant. We were hoping to sit at the bar to watch the chefs but it was booked up, now we have a reason to go back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful Food ExperienceCDLLDined on 11/7/2014Outstanding food and service! More than just dinner a real food experience! Incredible smell in the restaurant! Extensive wine list ...sommelier available! Delicious homemade ice cream! Artic Char and Short Ribs fantastic !Special Features:
- NiagarafoodieDined on 11/7/2014My meal at Treadwell Restaurant could not have been improved upon. It will be any foodie's delight to watch the professionalism of this team dance together from the counter/table while they produce outstanding meals. My husband had the short ribs - falling off the bone with rich complex flavours. I had the duck on a bed of brussel sprouts. Never knew that I loved brussel sprouts. The sommelier suggested a perfect pairing for both courses. A Niagara riesling paired beautifully with the richness of the pork belly and a perfectly cooked scallop. The fresh sorbet was the perfect ending. We can't wait to return.Special Features:
- Too much of a good thing?theconsummateconsumerDined on 10/25/2014Great spot in NOTL. A breath of fresh air for this otherwise stuffy United Empire Loyalist settlement where everything from food to hotel rooms can be overpriced and of poor quality. One complaint: Truffle oil is a wonderful thing, but only when used sparingly in vinaigrettes, sauces and soups.
- Lovely Autumn lunchGringuitaDined on 10/24/2014I recently had lunch at Treadwell and it was lovely; great good, fantastic service, and nice management. I'd definitely go here again, for dinner next time, and highly recommend it.Special Features:
- MoirDined on 10/23/2014We didn't order an appetizer. Big mistake! Entrees were timed to follow an appetizer, so we waited for entrees longer than was "comfortable" , i.e. We noticed the delay--never a positive.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nothing SpecialRogerioF1Dined on 10/20/2014We were expecting more. Food was ok, staff not very friendly but nice atmosphere.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 10/20/2014Very small restaurant with tables tightly spaced, but excellent food! I still wish I could get another scallop two weeks later. Good wine list, servers were polite and attentive. You do hear everyone else's conversation very clearly due to the tight spacing of the tables.Special Features:
- Update the brunch menuLL76Dined on 10/19/2014I have dined at Treadwell several times in the past few years, both at the St. Catharines & NOTL locations (usually brunch/lunch) - and while the food is always very good, I am disappointed to see the same menu items each time - especially since it is such a limited menu. Perhaps a daily feature or some variety?Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ExcellentMPregmonDined on 10/18/2014Our first time to Niagra on the Lake as well as Treadwell. We were very pleased with Treadwell regarding the quality of the service and food. Food was fresh and creative and service was friendly and professional. Overall, Lunch was fantastic and will be back to experience dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious FoodpinkbunniDined on 10/12/2014Everything from this restaurant was excellent. The food is fresh and delicious. The service is great too, they had no trouble when I asked to switched my main after our appetizers arrived. Will definitely come back again if we are in the NOTL region!Special Features:
- Superb!EnglishmanabroadDined on 10/11/2014Well finally a great restaurant walkable in Niagara on the Lake. Fantastic farm to table concept, knowledgeable staff with great food and ambience. Wine list comprehensive with intelligent matching suggestions. Overall great value and superb night out. You want to keep this one secret as it stands out from mediocrity in the neighbourhood.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- IrkyODined on 10/9/2014We had a great dining experience. The food and service were perfect. Because the restaurant is so small and the tables are close together,we had conversations with those siting on each side which was enjoyable.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- We enjoyed TreadwellGoodfoodgirlDined on 10/8/2014We had a very positive experience at Treadwell. The food was delicious and our server suggested a choice of two local wines, neither of which was the most expensive on the list (which was extensive) but suited our tastes perfectly. The service was friendly, attentive but not overbearing. We also met some very nice people sitting next to us at dinner. All in all a very special evening.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent spot in NOTLOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 10/7/2014I'm so glad that Treadwell has relocated to NOTL. An amazing meal with top-notch service! Looking forward to a return visit.Special Features:
- Hate the seating setupOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 10/6/2014The restaurant has a line of small tables along a back wall. If you're seated there you must become friends with people on both sides of your table. This is very annoying if you wish to be speaking only to your dinner date. The next time we go we will ask to sit at the food bar and watch our food being prepared!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Treadwell's move a gemGordonGourmandDined on 10/5/2014. This past Sunday was our first opportunity to try Treadwell's newest restaurant It was spectacularly good. We sat at the Chef's Bar and enjoyed an entertaining evening watching the kitchen crew. . Started with Scallops and Pork Belly. First time we found it in Canada.. It was worth the wait. Then the pickerel with sweetbreads. Beautifully done. My wife had an excellent beet and chevre salad followed by confit of lamb. Also superb. Excellent wine pairings with every dish. Finished off with shared 5 cheese plate. Everything perfectly ripe in correct serving temperature. Seving staff were excellent, friendly and very professional. My wife made a reservation at the Chef's Bar for late November when she will be back in NOTLSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Exceptional!BmanVIPDined on 10/4/2014The menu is small but very interesting. We were four, and all of us found dishes we really enjoyed - all plates were cleaned! The real highlight was our server, who knew her menu inside and out and made excellent recommendations. A truly perfect pre-theatre mealSpecial Features:
- A True TreatSouthLazioDined on 10/1/2014There were three in our group when we visited Treadwell Farm-to-Table. All three of us agreed that it was a delicious meal and that the staff was as accommodating as they could possibly be. The duck was delicious as was the lamb. Even better were the first courses - beet salad as well as arugula salad were superb. The resaurant is small and it was crowded for a Wednesday evening but that's because the food is so good and the staff really helpful. By all means, go to Treadwell.Special Features:
- The best!MarieDined on 9/30/2014My husband and I had one of the best meals ever. We arrived early and instead of waiting for our table, we decided to take two seats at the bar. What a great decision - we saw all of the action! Wonderful open kitchen, staff so on their game, everyone at their stations creating perfection. It's not a very big prep area, but somehow they kept it together when a group of 12 arrived for appies and dinner. One person came out from the back and helped put together the most amazing meals. Ours was fantastic, with a great wine from Ravine vineyards. Go there whenever you can!Special Features:
- Good FooddmcmDined on 9/28/2014The food was excellent, and the service was exceptionalSpecial Features:
- Poor serviceYummyintummyDined on 9/28/2014The girlfriend and I went for Sunday brunch. We were greeted by a pleasant young man and he sat us down at the patio. The patio was about 3/4 full at the time of seating. We sat at the table for 20 minutes, waiting patiently for a server to address us. There were 3 at the time and within that 20 mins, more than 1/2 the tables had cashed out. The 3 servers paid absolutely no attention to us and continued to walk aimlessly. I had gotten up and asked if we were going to be served. The host apologized and appeared to look for a server for us. We sat for another 10 minutes, giving them the benefit of the doubt. Nothing happened, we got up and left. The host noticed but made no effort there on out. Horrendous service for this type of restaurant
- best in nolfairbalancedDined on 9/27/2014I love this restaurant- I think its the best in Niagara on the lake. The indoor seating is a little cramped so sit outside if you can. Food is excellent and unique.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Treadwell'sPAULYDined on 9/27/2014This restaurant exemplifies what a fantastic restaurant should be!!! From the personal service to the delectable cuisine, this will definitely be number one on my list to visit each and every time in Niagara on the Lake.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lumch before the playfooddivaDined on 9/27/2014Four Torontonians reserved a table for lunch before the play. I had eaten at Treadwell's twice the month before. I found the quality of the food remarkable, the service very attentive despite the restaurant's being full, and the ambience very pleasant. I was not disappointed this time, and my guests thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The food preparation was unfussy and based on fresh, local ingredients: lots of herbs and vegetables. The roasted red pepper soup was very flavourful, our lobster sandwiches rich and satisfying. No room for dessert, unfortunately! I would recommend Treadwell's without hesitation to anyone who enjoys tasty fresh food impeccably prepared and served.Special Features:
- Good Food, Good Wine, Good ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/26/2014Yes, it is me again... I just went back to Treadwell again this past week, and got another special treatment from the good people at Treadwell.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great ExperiencemoltogustoDined on 9/26/2014Initially, we were told we had to sit inside even though the outdoor tables were not occupied and I had made a reservation some time ago. Indoors was stuffy. Upon requesting a second time, a different hostess graciously investigated and was able to accomodate us outside. We were impressed by the menu, the extensive wine list, the knowledgable sommelier and the excellent service which followed. We had exquisite food on a fabulous, Indian Summer evening to be outdoors.Special Features:
- Best meal in town!DandDDined on 9/25/2014We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner here. The menu is somewhat limited, but full of creative options, and the preparation was outstanding - both the salmon and the lamb were among the best we have ever had. The wait staff were all very helpful and attentive. Although the open kitchen was a little noisy, it provided a welcome informality to the overall atmosphere. We will definitely be coming back when we return to the Shaw Festival next year.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- A great addition to NOTLCleoVIPDined on 9/23/2014Located on the main street Treadwell is a super spot for lunch or dinner. We had lunch on the pretty patio. A little breezy, so they turned on the heaters and brought plush throws! Had the lobster club which deserves the raves I'd read. The arugula salad is nice to cut the richness, but we did have to ask for a bit more dressing as the leaves were pretty dry. Good cappuccinos. Would like to go back and try the dinner menu.Special Features:
- Delicious!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/22/2014Best restaurant in Niagara. It's wonderful that this restaurant has moved downtown. It has excellent cuisine with local produce. We are foodies and enjoyed every mouthful. Lamb confit, Scallops with pork belly, tuna with beats and radish. Great friendly and attentive service. Small enough so the kitchen is not overwhelmed.Special Features:
- pretty plainfoodloverDined on 9/22/2014The restaurant was very clean and stylish, the server was absolutely fantastic and friendly. The beet salad appetizer was delicious, albeit a little redundant by the time I was through eating all those beets. The salmon dinner ordered by my companion and the pickerel dinner that I ordered were both very plain. I ordered the pickerel without the veal sweetbreads, and hoped for an alternative to make up for it, but I was offered no substitute - not even a potato or fries. So I had bland fish on a bland bed of spinach, surrounded by bland root vegetables. It tasted like everything on the plate had been steamed together, and put on a plate. And paid $34 for this entrée.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Niagara-on-the-lake-gemfoodloverDined on 9/21/2014We really enjoyed our dinner. The open kitchen is a nice touch. The food was excellent and the wine recommended by John was the icing on the cake! We will be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and perfectly cooked. The service was attentive and helpful and the wine list was wonderfully representative of the best of Ontario. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. You knew everything was first class without any of the unnecessary pretension that so many restaurants seem to think makes them top notch.Special Features:

Learning: Actively Recalling Information from Memory Beats Elaborate Study MethodsPosted February 6th, 2011 by parbuckle
ScienceDaily (Jan. 21, 2011) — Put down those science books and work at recalling information from memory. That's the shorthand take away message of new research from Purdue University that says practicing memory retrieval boosts science learning far better than elaborate study methods. "Our view is that learning is not about studying or getting knowledge 'in memory,'" said Purdue psychology professor Jeffrey Karpicke, the lead investigator for the study that appears January 20 in the journal Science. "Learning is about retrieving.

But now! Now Joe Perry's telling Rolling Stone he had no idea what the whole thing was about the other night. He says he didn't know Tyler was even in the building until they were about to do their encore (yes, the Joe Perry Project gets to play encores).
The cameo, says Perry, came as a surprise even to him. "There was all this commotion during our encore break and somebody said, 'Steven is here.' " Perry says. "And I was like, 'What?' " After exchanging pleasantries, Tyler asked to sit in with the group on the final encore of "Walk This Way." "Being an acquaintance of 40 years, I said, 'Why not?' " Perry says. "So he came up and sang and that was the last I saw of him."
So it looks like we're back to square one. Aerosmith might still be a band, but they also might not be. They might be looking for a new lead singer, but they also might not be. More updates to come, I assume.

American and other researchers have discovered five new genetic mutations that
make Ashkenazi Jews four times more likely than other populations to develop
Crohn's disease.The online journal PLoS (Public Library of Science)
reported the discovery in its March 8th issue.The findings, from a
multicenter study, are the first step in an attempt to explain why Ashkenazi
Jews are at significantly higher risk for the disorder, which is a form of
inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Crohn's is an autoimmune condition in which
the immune system attacks healthy tissue in the gastrointestinal track, causing
chronic inflammation.Crohn's usually affects the intestines, which are
continually inflamed and thick, but it can occur anywhere from the mouth to the
end of the rectum. In this condition, the body overreacts to normal bacteria in
the intestines While it can occur at any age, the typical ages of onset are
between 15 and 35. People at high risk include smokers, those with a family
history of Crohn's and Jews of Ashkenazi origin, but until now, the defective
genes had not been identified.Its main symptoms are fatigue, loss of
appetite, abdominal cramps, pain when passing stool, fever, weight loss,
diarrhea, possibly eye inflammation, joint pain and swelling, swollen gums and
skin ulcers. In addition to a physical exam, tests and scans, a stool culture is
often conducted to rule out other possible causes of the symptoms.Dr.
Burrill Crohn first characterized the disease exactly 80 years ago at New York's
Mount Sinai School of Medicine. Prof. Inga Peter, a geneticist at Mount Sinai,
led the international research team to search for unique genetic risk factors in
Ashkenazi Jews.Previous studies had identified 71 genetic variants of
Crohn's disease risk in people, especially Jews of central and eastern European
ancestry. Peter and her team conducted a two-step genome-wide association study
comparing 1,878 Ashkenazi Jews with Crohn's disease to 4,469 Ashkenazi Jews
without the disease, using DNA samples to evaluate their genetic make-up. The
research team found 12 of the known risk variants, but also discovered five new
genetic risk regions on chromosomes (5q21.1, 2p15, 8q21.11, 10q26.3 and
11q12.1)."This is the largest study to date, and the first to discover
the unique risk factors of Crohn's disease in the Ashkenazi Jewish population,"
said Peter. "The prevalence of this disease is so much higher in Ashkenazi Jews,
and the involvement of genetic variants predominant in this population might
help understand why that is."The research team, funded by the New York
Crohn's Disease foundation, also evaluated previous findings in non- Jewish
Europeans with Crohn's disease and found that the genetic structure of the novel
regions associated with Crohn's disease risk in the Ashkenazi Jewish group was
much less diverse than that of non-Jewish Europeans."Not only did we
discover different risk factors for Ashkenazi Jews, but we found that some
previously known risk factors are more potent to this population," said Peter.
"Armed with this new information, we can begin to analyze the specific signals
to pinpoint causal genetic mutations, discover why they are malfunctioning, and
eventually develop novel treatment approaches."Since Dr. Crohn and his
colleagues first described this disease, Mount Sinai has remained at the
forefront of research and treatment for digestive diseases. Its specialists
today care for more patients with inflammatory bowel disease than any other
medical center in the US.If medicines do not help, surgical bowel
resection may be needed to remove a damaged or diseased part of the intestine or
to drain an abscess.The condition is marked by periods of improvement
followed by flare-ups of symptoms. Patients are at higher risk for small
bowel and colon cancer than those who do not have Crohn's.Sufferers are
usually advised to eat a well-balanced, healthy diet, but certain types of foods
can make diarrhea and gas worse. Stress often makes the condition worse.
Medications are given to reduce symptoms, but there is no cure.However,
the gene discovery could eventually lead to early diagnosis, a better means of
treatment or maybe even a way to cure or prevent it.

The Atlanta Hawks have rolled the dice on veteran forward Tracy McGrady, signing him to a one-year deal Friday. The Hawks inked the former two-time scoring champ for the veteran minimum. McGrady was at practice with the team Friday. McGrady, 32, played for the Detroit Pistons last season, averaging eight points per game and taking over point guard duties instead of playing at small forward.

Am I over-reacting?
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 11-19-2012 - 7:52am
I need someone to help put a bit of perspective on this for me. If you've read my previous post you'll know that myself and my in-laws do not get on. I can generally live with this when they are not forced upon me and I have as little to do with them as possible, to attempt to avoid the constant conflict. However, they will not do the same! The first thing was that it was my birthday a couple of weeks ago. SIL never sends me a card and I accept this. We don't get on, never have, that's fine. It irks me a little because MIL constantly hounds my husband into sending cards and presents for SIL's husband, but I am not afforded the same respect. I was also a bit put out because they had made a big fuss over how much money they had spent on my BIL's wife for her birthday. However, I tried to not let it bother me. She's never sent a card so that's fair enough, didn't expect anything else and I got on with it. However, MIL rings the day after and lies about SIL having sent a card. 5 days after my birthday, I then receive a card that SIL has blatantly been forced to sign. The card had clearly been chosen by MIL, the envelope had been addressed by MIL and SIL had then had to squeeze my name in down the side of the envelope because MIL hadn't left enough room. Not receiving a card I can live with, but this blatantly forced effort 5 days late just felt like a total slap in the face! Ignoring each other is fine, but this might as well have said I really really don't like you across the front of the card. It really irritated me. And don't think MIL has done this to make me feel good, she hasn't. She's done this because she has such a go at my husband about making a fuss for SIL's husband that she would have felt she couldn't get away with doing that again if SIL hadn't sent a card. It was only to ensure husband could be guilt tripped next time, don't be fooled. So anyway, MIL randomly announces that we'll be doing a group Skype because his siblings really want to see our baby - we knew straight away this wasn't true, they never talk to us except to moan about something and have shown no interest in our baby. No, this was about showing off SIL's baby who we had been informed had just started talking. So, that irked me. Lies again. So the group Skype takes place and I could have predicted it word for word - not one of them acknowledged our baby on the screen at all. Instead they paraded SIL's baby about like a performing dog making him talk so that hubby could coo over him, as was intended. The only time our baby was acknowledged was when hubby mentioned she'd just had her dinner and SIL demanded to know how old she was and when we'd started feeding her (shouldn't she know her age??) and then informed us that they'd started feeding their baby at the same time (like it's a competition). She then made a dig about how she shouldn't be eating something we'd given her and all I said was well it was a 4 month old baby pouch so it's fine. At my response to her dig, she stormed off in a huff declaring that she wasn't doing this and left the room, causing a scene as usual because I'd dared to disagree with her. It wasn't even really disagreeing with her anyway!! When she eventually returned she made a big point of just saying bye to hubby and baby and ignoring my existence as usual. The whole thing was just a farce and has really annoyed me. Clearly, they had had a discussion the previous night about how hubby isn't paying enough attention to SIL's baby (this is a running theme because he doesn't live near them) and MIL has thought that forcing a skype conversation will solve all that. I have no doubt that they feel great at forcing hubby to take an interest and listen to their inane life stories but as usual I'm left frustrated that they didn't do it because they had an interest in us, they made their lack of interest clear and as usual I'm totally ignored and disrespected and no-one cares. I also will not have our baby used as a weapon - ie they will talk to her to prove how much they're not talking to me and have her constantly compared to SIL's baby and measuring as inferior. There's no way I'm letting that happen! As usual, hubby thinks I'm over-reacting and doesn't see what the problems are. Is it just me? I know sometimes I do over-react because I've had it up to the hilt with them and everything they do irritates me now. Would love to hear what you think and any advice.

IMO I think you have the right to feel as you are feeling.
I go thru something similar with my oldest (32) her daughter (6), and my youngest (9). Much of the time my oldest treats our youngest as a sibling, and forgets that she too is a mom of a small girl who has feelings. As far as my oldest is concerned the sun rises and sets on her youngest and she can do no wrong, and her little sister is always getting yelled at by her big sister.
My oldest lies like your MIL in regards to what her kid has/has not done, achieved etc. Latest is how my grandaughters school wants to jump her 2-3 grades. The child is in 1st grade and is not a baby einstein and I know the school district as I have worked there and there is NO way they would jump a child that far, alone for alienation due to a huge age gap with other kids in the same grade.
Your MIL maybe just feeling like the only one she can control is your SIL and her family as it seems you are pretty solid in your relationship and a strong personality that does not let others walk on her. Don't let her try to control how you live your life.
It seems that many people are not happy unless they have something to complain about and it looks like you have a prime drama queen to deal with. We have discovered the best way to deal with our drama queens, our oldest, my MIL is to nod our heads, smile and keep on with whatever we were doing in the first place.
Seems like you already have it nailed that there is some sort of subliminal competition going on with the babies and it is obvious you don't want any part in it. Good on you! Babies develop at different stages and each grandchild is a blessing, no matter how spoiled or "perfect" they are in the eyes of their parent(s).
My MIL reacts a lot like yours, going off in huffs, many times when I don't say "good morning" right away, I MUST be mad at her, ummm no, I was only thinking about getting my coffee and waking up lol.
Just realize some people need it to be "all about me" and there isn't much you can do, but ....nod your head, smile, and move on :D
Many hubbies are just "thick" mine thankfully gets just as annoyed and I have had to have him bite his tongue and nod and smile...it isn't easy to do, but you eventually get a routine of it and their little "digs" and "comparisons" no longer bother you.
|Thu, 12-06-2012 - 1:39pm
Hi Maya,
Your SIL sounds like a spoiled brat. And your MIL sounds like she has your DH wrapped around her finger. If it were me, I'd consider showing some replies to her regarding your post. First, your sil sends you a card. What does she send her brother? In my opinion, you are both now their family - you come as a package and it is wrong to send something nice to one brother and just a card to the sister in law. It says - we love him we don't love you. You DH needs to recognize this and realize just how hurtful it would be to you. Second, the fact that he lets his mommy tell him what to do is ridiculous. How old is he? It is time to act like a man and a husband and that means the two of you deciding how you will handle gift giving and phone calls etc. And, it would be wrong for him to expect to send a card/gift to everyone in his family for their birthdays when in return they just send you a card.
What he should do is acknowledge that this is how they want to have holidays. Many families do this. They send cards instead of gifts because life is expensive and really it is the sentiment that is supposed to count. If SIL wants to acknowledge birthdays with a card - then that's what you guys should consider doing and nothing more.
I would have a skype meeting with the whole family at the start of January and say something nice like "starting this year, we would like to keep holidays simple and not send gifts - only cards. We would give gifts for special occassions and for the children but again, we feel that it makes since to do this especially with the cost of living and the cost of shipping etc. Obviously it would be yours and his wording.
Then stick to it. Mommy needs to stay out of it as it isn't her decision.
AS for the behavior of his sister - storming out of the room. Well, I would treat a temper tantrum just like that. And, for me, I think I'd have made it a point to tell her goodbye even if she didn't say good bye to me.
You did the right thing by defending against her comment on the baby food. She was just being a snot and the truth is, she didn't like it because you stood up to her so she ran out of the room like a baby.
I think your response on that was perfect. And, when she comes back have a great big smile on your face.

Moving from NMCI to NGEN will take longer than expected
The transition from the Navy Marine Corps Intranet to the new version of the services' enterprise network will take longer than expected, officials said last week.
To fill the gap after the NMCI contract expires Sept. 30, 2010 — and before the Navy issues new contracts under the Next Generation Enterprise Network (NGEN) — the service plans to enter into a sole-source contract with EDS to continue providing NMCI services during the transition. Hewlett-Packard owns EDS.
"I think folks underestimated the complexity associated with the transition from NMCI moving forward," said John Gauss, acquisition head at the NGEN System Program Office. "The folks that helped architect the original strategy, I don't believe considered that it would be brought back in-house someday."
The NMCI contract is a commercial services contract in which EDS provides services to meet service-level agreements. EDS owns much of NMCI's physical infrastructure and operating processes. The Navy needs access to that infrastructure to write and award NGEN contracts.
More importantly, the Navy wants more control over its network. For example. commanders at the Naval Network Warfare Command cannot view the global health and status of the networks using NMCI, Gauss said.
Problem resolution is another issue the Navy hopes to improve under NGEN. Navy officials want the ability to prioritize network problems to better support military missions rather than have a contractor maintain a service-level agreement, Gauss said.
"We swung the pendulum way too far by giving them far too much control," Gauss said. "We're not looking to bring it back in-house in its entirety, we're looking to exercise the proper level of control in the networks."
The sole-source contract is designed to keep the network running while the Navy pursues all the goals of NGEN, said Rear Adm. John Goodwin, assistant chief of naval operations for NGEN.
"My responsibilities are to synchronize the efforts of the operations, the policy, the programming, the resources and the acquisition piece," Goodwin said. "We need to make sure that with so many stakeholders in a project of this magnitude that we don't miss something."
EDS officials said the costs associated with the NMCI infrastructure are substantial and the company is working with the Navy to transfer those licenses.
"Moving from NMCI to NGEN will be the largest [information technology] transition and transformation ever contemplated," said Randy Dove, an EDS spokesman."Nothing has ever been attempted on this scale or complexity."

April 1997
This Fact Sheet provides information to help you
understand the FCC's recently revised ex parte rules.
These rules are found in sections 1.1200 to 1.1216 of
volume 47 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as
amended by FCC 97-92, released March 19, 1997. The
effective date of the revised rules is June 2, 1997.
1. What is the purpose of the ex parte rules?
The ex parte rules govern the manner in which persons
may communicate with the Commission concerning the
issues in its proceedings. The rules play an
important role in protecting the fairness of the FCC's
proceedings by assuring that FCC decisions are not
influenced by impermissible off-the-record-communications between decision-makers and others. At
the same time, the rules are designed to ensure that
the FCC has sufficient flexibility to obtain the
information that is necessary for it to make
reasonable decisions.
2. Do the ex parte rules apply to me?
The ex parte rules apply to anyone who engages in the
kind of communications covered by the rules whether or
not they are a party to the proceeding.
3. What types of communications are covered by the ex
parte rules?
The rules govern ex parte presentations to FCC
decision makers. In some types of proceedings
(restricted proceedings), the rules prohibit ex parte
presentations to decision makers concerning the issues
in its proceedings. In other types of proceedings
(permit-but-disclose proceedings), the rules require
that summaries of such presentations be placed in the
record. In some types of proceedings (exempt
proceedings), there are no restrictions on ex parte
presentations. The rules describe which types of
restrictions or requirements, if any, apply to ex
parte presentations apply in the various types of
Commission proceedings.
4. What is a presentation?
A presentation is a communication directed to the
merits or outcome of a proceeding, including any
procedural or other issues raised in the proceeding.
There are some exceptions, however. Communications
which are inadvertently or casually made are not
presentations. Neither are routine inquiries about
compliance with the Commission's procedural rules,
such as when a pleading must be filed, so long as the
question has not become the subject of dispute in the
proceeding. Inquiries relating solely to the status
of a proceeding are not presentations. However, a
status inquiry is deemed a presentation if it states
or implies a view as to the merits or outcome of the
proceeding or a preference for a particular party,
states why timing is important to a particular party
(other than the need to avoid administrative delay),
or indicates a view as to the date by which a
proceeding should be resolved.
5. What is an ex parte presentation?
An ex parte presentation is any presentation which, if
written (including electronic mail), is not served on
the parties to the proceeding, or, if oral, is made
without advance notice to the parties and without
opportunity for them to be present.
6. Who are FCC decision-making personnel?
Decision-making personnel are those people at the
Commission who are or who may reasonably be expected
to be involved in formulating a decision, rule, or
order in a proceeding. All FCC Bureau or Office staff
are considered decision-making personnel with respect
to decisions, rules, and orders in which their Bureau
or Office participates unless they have been
designated as part of a separate trial staff or
otherwise formally excluded from the decisional
process in the proceeding.
7. What ex parte presentations are exempt regardless
of the type of proceeding involved?
Certain kinds of ex parte presentations are considered
"exempt" and may be freely made even if a proceeding
is permit-but-disclose or restricted. Participants in
Commission proceedings should be aware that these
(1) presentations authorized by statute or by the
Commission's rules to be made without service, as well
as the filing of required forms;
(2) presentations to the General Counsel's office
concerning judicial review of a proceeding;
(3) presentations directly relating to emergency
situations; and
(4) situations where confidentiality is necessary to
protect persons making ex parte presentations from
possible reprisals.
Participants in Commission proceedings are also
permitted to make presentations requested by (or made
with the advance approval of) the Commission or staff
for the clarification or adduction of evidence, or for
resolution of issues, including possible settlement,
subject to certain disclosure requirements.
Parties to restricted Commission proceedings are
permitted to request orally that the Commission act by
a particular date or give reasons for expediting the
case other than the need to avoid administrative
delay. If they do so, however, they must promptly
file a detailed summary of the presentation in the
record and serve it on the other parties to the
proceeding. Other parties may respond similarly in
support or opposition to the request.
The rules contain other exemptions and should also be
consulted to determine if a particular exemption
contains a disclosure requirement.
8. What types of proceedings are exempt from any
limitations on ex parte presentations?
Ex parte presentations are permissible in "exempt"
proceedings. There are six kinds of exempt
proceedings. These are:
(1) notice of inquiry proceedings;
(2) petitions for rulemaking (except for petitions
requesting the allotment of a broadcast channel) and
other requests for rule changes and policy statements;
(3) tariff proceedings (including directly associated
waiver requests or requests for special permission)
prior to being set for investigation;
(4) proceedings relating to prescription of common
carrier depreciation rates under section 220(b) of the
Communications Act prior to release of a public notice
of specific proposed depreciation rates;
(5) informal complaint proceedings under section 208
of the Communications Act; and
(6) complaints against a cable operator regarding its
rates that are not filed on FCC Form 329.
9. In what types of proceedings may ex parte
presentations be made if they are properly disclosed?
Ex parte presentations are permitted in "permit-but-disclose" proceedings provided that the presentations
are disclosed in the manner specified in the rules.
There are eleven kinds of permit-but-disclose
proceedings. These are:
(1) informal notice and comment rulemaking proceedings other than a proceeding for the allotment of a broadcast channel, upon release of a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking;
(2) proceedings involving a rule change, policy
statement or interpretive rule adopted without a
Notice of Proposed Rule Making upon release of the
order adopting the rule change, policy statement or
interpretive rule;
(3) declaratory ruling proceedings;
(4) tariff proceedings which have been set for
investigation under section 204 or 205 of the
Communications Act (including directly associated
waiver requests or requests for special permission);
(5) unless designated for hearing, proceedings under section 214(a) of the Communications Act that do not also involve applications for authorizations for radio communications services;
(6) unless designated for hearing, proceedings
involving applications for Cable Landing Act licenses
that do not also involve applications for
authorizations for radio communications services;
(7) proceedings involving a request for information
filed pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act;
(8) proceedings before a Joint Board or proceedings
before the Commission involving a recommendation from
a Joint Board;
(9) proceedings conducted pursuant to section 220(b)
of the Communications Act for prescription of common
carrier depreciation rates upon release of a public
notice of specific proposed depreciation rates;
(10) proceedings to prescribe a rate of return for
common carriers under section 205 of the
Communications Act; and
(11) cable rate complaint proceedings pursuant to
section 623(c) of the Communications Act where the
complaint is filed on FCC Form 329.
If there is only one party involved in a permit-but-disclose proceeding, that party may communicate with
the Commission without disclosure. If, however, a
presentation is made by a nonparty or by one of
multiple parties in such a proceeding, the
presentation is deemed ex parte and must be disclosed
(persons who are "parties" for purposes of the ex
parte rules are described in detail in question 13).
10. What are the disclosure requirements applicable in permit-but-disclose proceedings?
There are specific procedures for ensuring that the
presentations are reflected in the record of a permit-but-disclose proceeding. Ex parte presentations by
members of Congress or their staffs and other federal
agencies or their staffs need be disclosed only if
they are of substantial significance and clearly
intended to affect the ultimate decision in the
proceeding. Disclosure of ex parte presentations by
members of Congress or their staffs and other federal
agencies or their staffs will generally be made by the
Commission's staff.
In other circumstances, persons making written ex
parte presentations must, no later than the next
business day after the presentation, submit two copies
of the presentation to the Commission's secretary
under separate cover for inclusion in the public
record. The presentation (and cover letter) must
clearly identify the proceeding to which it relates,
including the docket number, if any; must indicate
that two copies have been submitted to the Secretary;
and must be labeled as an ex parte presentation. If
the presentation relates to more than one proceeding,
two copies must be filed for each proceeding.
Persons making oral ex parte presentations must
disclose them if they present data or arguments not
already reflected in that person's written comments,
memoranda or other filings in that proceeding. In
that case, the person must, no later than the next
business day after the presentation, submit to the
Commission's Secretary, with copies to the
Commissioners or Commission employees involved in the
oral presentation, an original and one copy of a
memorandum which summarizes the new data or arguments.
The subject matter of the presentation must be fully
disclosed; a mere listing of the subjects discussed is
not sufficient, and more than a one or two sentence
description of the views and arguments presented is
required. The memorandum (and cover letter) must
clearly identify the proceeding to which it relates,
including the docket number, if any, must indicate
that an original and one copy have been submitted to
the Secretary, and must be labeled as an ex parte
presentation. If the presentation relates to more
than one proceeding, two copies of the memorandum (or
an original and one copy) must be filed for each
proceeding. There is an exception to these
requirements where, for example, presentations occur
in the form of discussion at a widely attended
meeting, and preparation of a memorandum as specified
in the rule might be cumbersome. Under these
circumstances, the rule may be satisfied by submitting
a transcript or tape recording of the discussion as an
alternative to a memorandum.
11. How does the Commission give notice of ex parte
presentations in permit-but-disclose proceedings?
The Commission's Secretary issues a public notice at least twice a week listing any written ex parte presentations or written summaries of oral ex parte presentations in permit-but-disclose proceedings. It is possible that some presentations might inadvertently be omitted from this list, so interested persons should review the public file or record in proceedings about which they are concerned, where the copies of written presentations and memoranda of oral presentations can be found.
12. In what proceedings are ex parte presentations
prohibited entirely?
In all proceedings other than those specifically
listed as "exempt proceedings" or "permit-but-disclose
proceedings," ex parte presentations are prohibited.
In such proceedings, called "restricted proceedings,"
any written presentations to FCC decision makers must
be served on all the parties and oral presentations
may not be made unless all parties are given advance
notice and an opportunity to be present. If there is
only one party involved in a restricted proceeding,
that party may freely communicate with the Commission,
because there are no other parties entitled to advance
notice or service. However, presentations by a
nonparty or by one of multiple parties in a proceeding
are prohibited unless all parties are served or given
an opportunity to be present. Restricted proceedings
include all proceedings that have been designated for
hearing, proceedings involving amendments to the
broadcast table of allotments, applications for
authorizations for radio communications services, and
all waiver proceedings (except for those directly
associated with tariff filings).
13. Who are the parties to a restricted or permit-but-disclose proceeding?
Certain circumstances make you a party with a right to service of written
presentations and advance notice of oral presentations in restricted proceedings
and to disclosure of presentations in permit-but-disclose proceedings. Being a
party for purposes of the ex parte rules does not necessarily mean that you will be
considered a party for other purposes.
Parties include people who file applications, petitions, or other requests for relief
and those making responsive filings. To make someone a party, such an
application or petition must be directed to the Secretary, the relevant Bureau or
Office, or the Commission as a whole -- not just to the Chairman or individual
Commissioners. In addition, to make someone a party, responsive filings must
reference the original filing and be served on the filer.
For example, persons who file petitions to deny license applications are parties.
In addition, persons who file "informal objections" under rule section 73.3587
are parties if their objections are served. (However, the rules contain a special
exception for individual listeners or viewers who file informal comments about
pending broadcast applications. Such persons are not made parties even if their
informal comments are served, and they do not have to serve their comments on
the applicant.)
When a Freedom of Information Act request is filed the person who filed the request is a party and, where the requested information is the subject of a request for confidentiality, the person filing the request for confidentiality is also a party. Applicants and people filing mutually exclusive applications are parties with respect to each others' applications except in
services that the Commission has announced will be subject to competitive
bidding or lotteries.
People who file complaints and the subject of the complaint are parties if the
complaint is a formal complaint under § 208 of the Communications Act or the
complaint shows that it was served on the subject of the complaint. (Note that
under questions 8 and 9 certain kinds of complaints are treated as exempt.)
A person who files a petition to revoke a license or other authorization or who
files a petition for an order to show cause and the subject of the petition are
The subject of an order to show cause, hearing designation order, notice of
apparent liability, or similar notice or order, or petition for such notice or order
is a party.
In informal notice and comment rulemaking proceedings (except for those
involving the allotment of a broadcast channel), and proceedings before a Joint
Board or before the Commission to consider the recommendation of a Joint
Board, members of the general public after the issuance of a notice of proposed
rulemaking or other order are parties.
In rulemakings for the allotment of a broadcast channel the petitioners and those
making responsive filings are parties.
14. What is the sunshine period prohibition?
The sunshine period prohibition imposes a restriction on presentations to
Commission decision-makers in addition to the limitations otherwise applicable
under the ex parte rules. It applies to proceedings in which the Commission has
issued a public notice that a matter will be considered at a Commission meeting --
that is, the matter has been placed on the "Sunshine Agenda." While the
sunshine period prohibition is in effect, all presentations to decision-makers
concerning matters listed on a Sunshine Agenda, whether ex parte or not, are
prohibited unless they fall within certain exceptions. In particular, presentations
are permitted if they occur in the course of a widely attended speech or panel
discussion and concern a Commission action in an exempt or a permit-but-disclose proceeding that has been adopted. Members of Congress or their staffs
and other federal agencies or their staffs may make presentations in exempt or
permit-but-disclose proceedings, but presentations that are of substantial
significance and clearly intended to affect the ultimate decision in the proceeding
must be disclosed, either by the presenter or the Commission's staff. The
sunshine period prohibition applies from the release of a public notice that a
matter has been placed on the Sunshine Agenda until the Commission releases the
text of a decision or order relating to the matter, issues a public notice stating that
the matter has been deleted from the Sunshine Agenda, or issues a public notice
stating that the matter has been returned to the staff for further consideration,
whichever occurs first.
15. How can I find out more information about the ex parte rules?
For further information about the ex parte rules, contact the Federal
Communications Commission, Office of Public Affairs, Consumer Assistance
Branch at (202) 418-0200 or the Office of General Counsel, Administrative Law Division at (202) 418-1720.
