Hi guys! I wanted to share my new flawless skin foundation routine and the technique that I've been using for my contouring and highlighting. I really like the way it makes my skin look and it looks nice in person and even better on camera! On top of all that I included the gold eyes tutorial for the look I've been doing lately with the new Maybelline Wild Gold Pigment and the Naked Basics Palette. It's pretty easy and it creates a nice wearable daytime shimmery eye. Warning this video is just under 16 minutes (I know I know… longggg) but I had to a lot of things to pack into one video. I hope you enjoy!
Step by Step:
I started by applying my favorite BB Cream all over my face to even my complexion. I've been using the Garnier BB in light to medium for combo to oily skin. Next I take my favorite foundation which is the Revlon Colorstay Whipped foundation and apply it just in the areas that I need more coverage. I then apply my highlighting concealer- the Maybelline Dark Circle Eraser, my NYC Bronzer as a contour, NYX's Blush in Mocha and Physicians Formula Translucent Pearl highlighter on the tops of my cheek bones. For the eyes I used Maybelline's new Wild Gold Pure Pigment on the lid and Urban Decay's Naked Basics Palette for the crease. Brown liner by Covergirl really pulls the whole eye look together. To top it all off I used Milani's Creme Nude Lipstick with Revlon Lipgloss in Peony on top. It's an easy look that you can wear everyday or even to work or school.

RELEASED: June 5, 2008
Eddie Jeff Cahill
EAU CLAIRE — Songs, stories and tall tales will begin the second week of the University Centers Summer Events series at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire Monday, June 16.
Eddie Jeff Cahill, a true wandering minstrel, will perform at 7 p.m. on the Central Campus Mall (rain site: The Cabin, Davies Center) as part of the Music on the Mall series. The audience is invited to bring lawn chairs, blankets and a picnic to the show, which is free and open to the public. Free popcorn will be available.
Cahill was born on a cold December evening in 1948. After eight soul-searching years, Cahill realized he was an entertainer and launched a career in music. Starting on the string bass, he meandered his way through various instruments until settling on the guitar. His meandering was not limited to musical instruments it became his lifestyle. As a result of this lifestyle he has acquired a diverse selection of songs and stories throughout the United States and Canada. The variety of venues — renaissance festivals, folk and blues festivals, concerts, coffeehouses and even "The Ed Sullivan Show" — has given Cahill's work a grassroots connection.
The Summer Events series also will present Jazz at Noon concerts Monday through Friday, June 16-20, on the Central Campus Mall. Groups featuring UW-Eau Claire student and alumni musicians will perform under the direction of UW-Eau Claire graduate Steven Hobert. The 60-minute shows will feature music ranging from jazz standards to improvisation. A variety of grilled lunch items will be sold.
With the theme "Welcome to Our Backyard," University Centers Summer Events continue through July 31. A complete schedule is available at the Service Center, 715-836-3727, or online.
The eight-week series is funded by UW-Eau Claire students and coordinated by University Centers. For more information contact Paula Stuettgen, senior coordinator for assessment and special projects, 715-836-4803.

The Most Common Mental Health Misconceptions
The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) in Toronto launched an awareness campaign today in the hopes of bringing attention to the stigma those with mental illness face to help defeat it. The ads quote some of the most common things those of us with mental illness hear. These are the ones I encounter most frequently.

How do you search databases? This is a basic tutorial, using Criminal Justice Abstracts as an example.
And I'm also including the original Powerpoint presentation with a transcript of the tutorial.
As always, let me know if you have a question!
How do you search databases? This is a basic tutorial, using Criminal Justice Abstracts as an example.
And I'm also including the original Powerpoint presentation with a transcript of the tutorial.
As always, let me know if you have a question!
You're probably used to looking at the references in a paper and finding the articles that the author read to help them analyze their data and interpret their results. This is great for finding seminal articles, but they just get older and older. You want to know what's happening now!
How about finding out who read the article you have in your hand to understand their own data? That would mean you'd be moving into the future!
Most databases now let you click on a link and see who cited it. Here's what that looks like in Ebsco databases, like Criminal Justice Full Text, Academic Source Premier, ERIC, or SocINDEX. The link to these articles will be in a slightly different place in other databases, like PsycINFO.
Good luck. Have fun. And contact me if you'd like some help or more information!
What's the greatest thing about libraries? We share almost everything with each other!
Here at the University of St. Thomas, we share our collection with other libraries of the ACTC schools. Searching our catalog brings results from the other schools. A click on the Request link starts the process that ends with the courier bringing the book to your favorite CLIC library where you can check it out.
But if no CLIC library owns your book or subscribes to your journal?
Our InterLibrary Loan department rocks harder than any I've seen.
Faith Bonitz and Lindsey Loree borrow books from everywhere. And with about 60 requests per day, they get requests for almost anything.
The UST libraries also participate in the Minitex network which makes it easy for us to get books and articles from academic and public libraries in Minnesota.
Generally, they get books and papers for you mostly from the University of Minnesota. It's close and, as a state university, has the obligation to assist all of Minnesota's citizens. But even the U doesn't have everything. Soooo……
Around once or twice a month, we borrow books from around the world: France, the UK, Taiwan, Australia, and everywhere else.

Well, if you have anything to do with psychology, counseling, or diagnosing psychiatric disorders, you probably know that the new DSM5 has been published. And published amid a lot of hullaballoo. (We have the DSM5 online through Psychiatry Online. Have fun reading through it!)
The director of NIMH, Dr. Thomas R. Insel, announced that grants would preferentially go to researchers who decided against using the DSM5 to categorize their participant pool. Instead, he encourages researchers to look at biological markers that distinguish among participants. NIMH backpedaled a bit later, stating that the DSM was the best resource we have at the moment.
Many researchers, counselors, and therapists have responded with whole-hearted delight. They are hoping that the definitions of mental illnesses will be based on research, especially genetic and other biological information, rather than on what people feel are similar disorders. But they also want these disorders to be seen as social/spiritual/interpersonal issues. Insel's statement fails to address this aspect of the DSM.
I think this is quite interesting. My feeling has always been that once the causes of a psychiatric illness are determined to be biological, that disease is generally considered a neurological, rather than psychiatric disorder. So Alzheimer's is now considered a neurological disorder. It's given more respect as an illness, and generally taken from the purvey of psychiatrists and given to neurologists to treat, though they are still listed in the DSM.
On the other hand, "disorders" that we don't find a biological or genetic marker for will probably be considered to be social or psychological in origin and not a real illness. But as my adviser in grad school said, anything experienced will imprint in some way on the brain. A biological marker doesn't necessarily mean an etiology. Of course, it's cyclical — a change in the brain affects the emotional state of the owner of the brain.
Anyway, have fun with the DSM5. Earlier versions are also posted on Psychiatry Online, so you can easily compare the DSM IV-TR with the newer version.
Mental health providers will be reporting using the ICD-10 classification. The ICD used to be published on PsychiatryOnline, but I can no longer find it there. However, we'll be getting books on using the ICD-10 online in a few weeks. So you'll be able to find all the information and help you'll need on the library's website. (The DSM5 does list the ICD-10 codes next to their own codes.)
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid website has a lot of help for providers and others for transitioning to the ICD-10.
Let me know if you need anything. I'm here to help!
Yesterday, I gave a talk to several librarians. I've often wondered why I can often find articles, books, information, videos when my students don't. What's so special about librarians?
I came up with 7 different advantages we have over regular folks. I forgot the last one, that happens because of our personalities and/or because of the 7 advantages we have: we're obsessive; we never give up.
But here are the 7:
And we took this position because we love research, learning, and guiding other people to the enormous amount of information we can find. And helping them analyze and evaluate, plan their future research, and find fun reading to do during their breaks!
Would you like to see all of your RefWorks references listed in APA format or MLA or Turabian? You can set up your display to show any type of publication style that RefWorks includes… and that's hundreds of them.
This is probably what your references look like now:
But if you want to quickly see what your references would look like in your bibliography, you can customize the display to show any type of publication style. This way you don't have to print out a bibliography every time you want to see if your citations are going to look correct.
Here's how:
Scroll down to Customize on the right-hand side of the column. It's close to the bottom.
Select the publication style you want. (This time I chose APA 6th ed., APA style annotated, and MLA7th ed.) Click on save customized settings.
Now you can choose from any of the display types listed in your change view menu.
This is what it would look like in MLA 7th edition.
Pretty cool, Huh?
PsycINFO makes it easy. Just fill in the bits from your citation. The less you type, the more likely you and the person at PsycINFO will agree on spelling, punctuation, and wording.
Here's an example from an article in the Annual Review of Clincal Psychology.
You read this article;
Hayes, S. C., Villatte, M., Levin, M., & Hildebrandt, M. (2011). Open, aware, and active: Contextual approaches as an emerging trend in the behavioral and cognitive therapies. Annual Review of Clinical Psychology, 7(1), 141-168. doi: 10.1146/annurev-clinpsy-032210-104449
It cited an meta-analytic article about the outcomes from 39 studies of Mindfulness-Based Therapies.
This is great, because you'll get the studies collapsed, plus you'll find many articles that might look at a specific population or used a particluar research method.
Hofmann SG, Sawyer AT, Witt AA, Oh D. 2010. The effect of mindfulness-based therapy on anxiety and depression: a meta-analytic review. J. Consult. Clin. Psychol. 78:169–83.
Just fill in all or part of the information into the search. Make sure you select the fields you're searching in the dropdown menu and don't type too much of the title or author. You don't want to make spelling or punctuation errors.:
But what's this abbreviation for the journal? J. Consult. Clin. Psychol. Sheesh. Let's try using the Journal Finder. There's a link on the right side of the Journal box. That will bring you to the Journal Lookup page.
Type in the beginning of the journal title. Whatever you can guess from the abbreviation. Don't type in too much. You might make mistakes about the prepositions, especially. Click on search.
Check the box of the journal. Then the Add to Search button.
Here's the search page:
And here's the result:
Not only have we found an article that's right on topic, but it's an important one. It's only been published for 2 or 3 years and has already been cited 145 times! And those articles can help interpret this article. Do some of the authors feel this article or the original articles had serious flaws? We can find out by reading at least some of the citing articles! Score!
Students are always trying to place headers with the document title and page numbers in Word. APA requires it! But Word has made it very difficult. Generally folks try to insert a Header and then click on page numbers and add them. Makes sense, but it makes the document title disappear. Sigh.
Instead, add the header and the document title. Then click on Quick Parts -> Fields -> then scroll down to page. Perfect!
For the past few months, I 've received comments from students that we don't subscribe to some basic journals in psychology. This has completely stumped me, because each of the journals they mentioned, we did subscribe to. Often back to the first volume of the journal (like 1954).
This past week Carolyn DeLuca (our Electronic Resources Librarian) and I have been looking at specific articles that students said they couldn't link to after they found the record in PsycINFO.
What seems to be happening is that when the record in PsycINFO doesn't include page numbers or other important fields, the Get IT button is going to our error page. (This often happens when the print version hasn't come out yet, so they don't know the pages yet.) This allows you to click on a button that says Journal. Normally clicking on that will let you go to the journal and you can navigate around to the article. This isn't working either. The most recent, not yet in print issue, isn't listed.
If you click on the DOI, you can go directly to the article. But this only works if we subscribe directly to the publisher. If it's in another database, like Academic Search Premier, the link will ask you to PAY for it. You've already paid for it through the library.
If you are having problems accessing articles, please let me know. I'll try to get it for you. We can't fix the problems until we know about them.

When was the last time you really felt your real emotions?
If you, like most people, think that when you get lost, frustrated, overwhelmed or stressed that you are giving in to your emotions I have good news for you.
If you, like many, wonder why you often feel little or nothing in what normally would be a happy or sad situation, I also have good news for you.
The truth is these feelings are a direct result of becoming detached and separated from your true emotions.
When this happens you lose your ability to move forward in your personal life, your professional life and in establishing and maintaining meaningful relationships.
In fact, you lose all that makes you, you.
Do you ever
… look at your life and ask yourself "Is this it?"
… wonder why you are not as happy as you'd like to be?
… notice you repeat the same things day after day without meaning?
… believe that your life is in balance, yet don't experience any real highs or lows?
If you are relating to any of the questions above there is an answer for you.

Blackhawks keep rolling with high-powered offense
By Mark Lazerus Sun-Times Media February 7, 2013 11:19PM
Chicago Blackhawks' Jonathan Toews (19) beats Phoenix Coyotes' Mike Smith (41) for a goal during the second period in an NHL hockey game Thursday, Feb. 7, 2013, in Glendale, Ariz.(AP Photo/Ross D. Franklin)
Updated: March 10, 2013 6:39AM
By BOB BAUM
The Associated Press
GLENDALE, Ariz. — Patrick Kane had two goals and an assist, and the Chicago Blackhawks remained the only NHL team without a loss in regulation this season by routing the Phoenix Coyotes 6-2 Thursday night.
Viktor Stalberg, Jonathan Toews and Bryan Bickell each had a goal and an assist as the Blackhawks improved to 9-0-2. Dave Bolland also scored for Chicago.
Martin Hanzal and Raffi Torres scored for the Coyotes. Phoenix pulled goalie Mike Smith after Bickell scored Chicago's sixth goal with 4:52 left in the second period.
Kane's goals both came with a 5-on-3 advantage in the Blackhawks' four-goal first period. Kane has eight goals and 10 assists on the season.
Chicago's Patrick Sharp had three assists.
The Blackhawks, who lost to the Coyotes in six games in last season's playoffs, scored a half-dozen goals for the second time against Phoenix this season. They won in Arizona 6-4, also with Smith in goal, in the second game of the season on Jan. 20. Those are Chicago's two highest-scoring games of the season.
Ray Emery made 22 saves on an easy night. He is 3-0-0 this year with two wins over Phoenix.
The Coyotes had won nine straight at home, going 13-0-2 overall, in February since 2011. They came in with at least a point in five straight games and victories in their last two, but they were overwhelmed in a hurry.
Cheered on by their usual boisterous fans in Phoenix, the Blackhawks outshot the Coyotes 17-4 in the first period.
Chicago's two scores on the 5-on-3 advantages ended a four-game power-play drought for the Blackhawks, one of the few negatives in the team's fast start to the compacted season.
Phoenix had seven penalties in the period, capped by a 10-minute misconduct against Keith Yandle for his behavior as he left the penalty box, where he had been placed for unsportsmanlike conduct 2 minutes earlier.
Stalberg started the Blackhawks' early onslaught, taking a slick assist from Andrew Shaw and backhanding the puck past Smith.
The Blackhawks scored three times in the final 5:08 of the period.
Chicago was 21 seconds into its first 5-on-3 advantage when Kane scored. Toews knocked the puck out of a scrum in front to Kane, who tapped it into an open net with Smith sprawled on the ice.
Bolland's goal with an assist from Kane made it 3-0 with 2:26 left in the first. Then, with another 5-on-3 edge, Kane knocked a left-handed one-timer inside the post and Chicago led 4-0 with 1:35 to go in the first.
Hanzal's fifth goal of the season, on a power play, 5:19 into the second ruined the shutout. But goals by Toews and, finally, Bickell from in front of the net on a centering pass from Stalberg, made it 6-1 and coach Dave Tippett called it a night for Smith, who had given up one goal in the previous two games. He was sent to the bench in favor of Jason LaBarbera.
Torres, in his third game back after a 21-game suspension for a vicious hit on Chicago's Marian Hossa in last year's playoffs, got into it as he faced the Blackhawks for the first time since the incident. He squared off in a fight with Jamal Mayers 2:35 into the game. Then that story line evaporated in the face of the Chicago romp.
Torres' goal came with 1:25 to play.

My Best Friend is a Wookie: The Memoir I Wish I Wrote First.
"I want it on my tombstone: Here lies Tony Pacitti. If nothing else, he knew more about Star Wars than some stupid girl who only started liking it way after he did." (Tony Pacitti, My Best Friend is a Wookie)
I often take to describing myself a: a 12 year old boy in the year 1977, stuck in the body of a present day 30 year old woman. Walking into my apartment is akin to walking into a house where the parents have given up on making the kids pick up their toys. Except the only kids who come here are my two young nieces, and they are restricted to touching only sticker books and pez dispensers. A lunch box collection lines the walls of my foyer. Glass cases (thanks Ikea!) proudly boast the likes of a completed LEGO Slave-1 and a complete set of Burger King Star Wars Toys. When I held a surprise party for my boyfriend, the majority of his colleagues thought the figures were his. One mistakenly picked up my Force FX Lightsaber from Master Replica thinking he was going to play with it.
I'm also a bibliophile. One who loves books. Devours and digests them at extraordinary rates; usually purchasing or hoarding several in advance so that I may never run out (or just in case bookstores disappear all together. I detest e-readers. You hear me Kindle? I'm coming after you).
Yesterday, I uncovered one such book. Enamored by it's title alone, My Best Friend is a Wookie, I bought a copy the day it released; fearing I would miss my chance because our store only received 3 copies. Apparently I was alone in my passion: the remaining two copies lasted until the last week our store was open (a year later) and I bought them as gifts at a 70% discount. But the find was fortuitous yesterday, as I had finished my Advance Reader copy of Samantha Bee's book, and need some new bathroom material.
My fanny fell asleep, I sat on the toilet so long.
Tony Pacitti's autobiography of a boy growing up in the 90's as a Star Wars nerd removed from it's popularity was a delightful read. I mean it. In fact, I spent several minutes there before settling on the description of delightful. Hilarious would not do the painful parts justice. Pacitti takes us through his Massachusetts upbringing, the product of nerds- though his father would forever deny it- a smaller kid than the rest. He was the subject of bus stop bullying, and aligned himself with a boy named Queef because, well, when Queef was around, Tony wasn't the target.
Pacitti touches on those moments that make childhood both magical and humiliating. He takes the embarrassment of calling the teacher mom one step further when he raises his hand to tell her that he's wet himself. Any self respecting fanboy/girl can appreciate his excitement when the thing he loves, Star Wars,gains some popularity with the cool crowd; only to find himself irritated at all the new fly by night fans who think they know everything about the Universe. And of course, there is the heartbreak each one of the three prequels bring.
I identify with Tony all the way to college. Sometimes embarrassed by the degree to which I'm identifying. No one really wants to own the snark and elitist attitudes we harbor when it comes to our passion, Star Wars, comic books or otherwise. It's the stereotype that makes characters like Comic Book Guy all too real. But Tony Pacitti owns it. Now I'll own mine too, and admit I have a hard time with people who don't understand there's a difference between Storm Troopers, Snow Troopers, Clone Troopers, and Boba Fett. The people who don't realize what the orange armbands mean, or why Jar Jar was not simply annoying, but an abomination.
If anything, I would have liked to see more of Tony's adult life. I understand he's still living it, but I felt a lot was skipped over in the high school years to get to that third and final movie.
I was sorry to read the last page, and end my time with Pacitti sharing our Star Wars obsessions. You don't need to love Star Wars to love this narrative, but it helps. There is a lesson to be learned for people outside the pop-culture obsessed, and it's simply this: don't confuse the Death Star for Vader's Star Destroyer, and we can all get along just fine.

Looking to snap a 15-game road losing streak against its Little Three rival Williams during their 2011 meeting in Williamstown Sat., April 16, the Cardinals hung right with the Ephs though 39 minutes of play as the scored stood tied, 11-11. But a decisive six-goal burst by the homestanders over a span of 7:33 turned the result in Williams' favor as the Ephs seized a 17-11 edge with 13:16 to play and Wesleyan got no closer than the final score, 19-16.
The Cardinals did net five of the last six goals, two of those by Kayla Ellman '13 (#8, photo) as she tied a career high for goals in a game with four but added an assist to make it a career-best five-point afternoon. Hillary Cook '14 also posted a career-best output with a hat trick while Allie Lynch '11 turned in a five-point performance with a goal and four assists, upping her career assist figure to 97. No other player in school history has accumulated more than 59 assists.
Three other Cardinals were good for a pair of goals apiece - Liz Chabot '12, Lydia Kring '13 and Jess Chukwu '11. For Chukwu, the two tallies improved her career goal scoring to 97 as she seeks to join just five other Cardinals who has amassed 100 goals.
The game at Williams was one of constant catch-up for the Cardinals as they erased several sizeable differentials before Williams pulled away for good. Wesleyan trailed, 5-1, 6:23 into the game, but rallied to make it 5-5 13 minutes later on goals by Ellman, Chabot, Kaylin Berger '13 and Cook. The Ephs scored the next three goals for an 8-5 lead. Kring's free-position goal three minutes into the second half produced another tie, 9-9. Each team then scored two in a row, first Williams, then Wesleyan, as the Cardinals never led in the contest. The 11-11 deadlock proved to be the final tie.
Wesleyan will play its final home game of the season Sat., April 23, facing Little Three foe Amherst in a game slated for a webcast. The game can be viewed by clicking < here >. Before that, however, Weseyan will conclude its non-conference schedule with a home game against Mount Holyoke Tues., April 19.

I'm a homeschool mom of six. My family has been homeschooling for about eleven years. And, each year, we've learned a little more about having fun, and spending less, while learning more. It's great to be a homeschooler!

Tired of hearing about the kids.
- 20Jan 1, '12 by TECHTORNHOPEFULLYI don't know why this bothers me. Probably because I spend five days a week working my butt off in an pediatric emergency room and I am tired! Here is what bothers me.
We started out with full time nurses who worked really hard. Then they all decided at the age of 40 that they wanted to return to school to be FNP's. Fine. Your entitled to enrich your life. Most of them went part time and some PRN. For those who decided to not return to school decided to get pregnant. Every year. Again. Fine. I don't have to take care of them, so have as many kids as you would like. Here in lies the problem. I have kids of my own. I see 200 crying children a day. The ONE day a month you decide to come to work, all you want to do is talk about your kids, show pictures and videos. Try working or picking up patients. I am overloaded with kids and do not want to see your videos. People need to realize, just because YOU enjoy your kids and their every milestone, does not mean your co-workers want to as well. How do you tell your once a month, or 8 hour a week co-worker that you dont want to hear anything about their kids? An occasional picture is OK. But these people are overloading us with pictures and videos. It's so annoying. Can we have some adult conversation?
- 6Jan 2, '12 by carolmaccas66Yes I too would be greatly annoyed by this! I like looking at some pics, but when people want to show you 50,000 photos of basically the same image it gets highly boring.
Can't you tell them straight or schedule a meeting for everyone with the NUM?
There is a diversion tactic we use in psych nursing that may work as well:
When they bring out the photos/videos (can't believe they have TIME to do this in an ED/ER!), don't look at it, then say something like: I'm very busy can you do such and such for me (or whatever). DO NOT COMMENT ON THE PHOTO etc. If u do then they are sucking you in (for want of a better word) to 'their world'. If you start commenting to be polite, they automatically take that that you're interested & go on and on. Just keep diverting the conversation away from what they are showing you, & they will get the message, believe me.
I'm sorry but I don't tolerate any BS now; I'd be onto the NUM right away. Do it today if you're at work and lodge a complaint if it's that bad. The NUM may not be aware this is happening.
Let us know how u get on anyway.
- 6Jan 2, '12 by BlueDevil,DNPI disagree. I care deeply about my coworkers and their families, and I love to hear about their milestones and share the journey! I am very pleased to work with people who genuinely treasure one another.
- 7Jan 2, '12 by JDZ344I make one positive comment about the kids and then change the subject. for example: "Oh, s/he is so smart! Oh, is that the time? I better go and turn Mr. Smith/check that guys blood pressure etc"
Repeat as needed. They get the hint in the end.
- 1Jan 2, '12 by NurseCardI agree with KatieP86; make a nicey-nice comment like "Oh, they're cute kids", and then change the subject or find yourself something that you "have" to do right then!
Not saying a THING... that would probably work, but you would also probably come off as rude and hateful. But, a lot of
people honestly don't care what their coworkers think of them, which is perfectly fine.
I used to work in a fairly small hospital; the ER there certainly would get rather quiet at times, allowing for this sort of behavior. =)
- 2Jan 2, '12 by akaniniWork time is work time. OP, I totally agree with you and carol gave some great advice. Try it!
- 0Jan 2, '12 by libbyliberalI thought it was just me. But I do try to be kind. It must be hard for them to be away from their children.
- 8Jan 2, '12 by caroladybelleI actually wrote a thread about this a while back.I had 7 pregnant coworkers, most of them for the first time, and 5 over the age of 34.
My lord, you would have thought that no one had ever been pregnant like them. There was not one lunch hour (for them, closer to 2 hours) that was not a barrage of sore and cracked nipples, discussion of pregnancy constipation, and in-depth discussion of hormonal issues/impending birth.We suffered through the violent mood swings of the assisted conception from conception thru birth, just to hear her spoil the child, and then have complaints about the child's behavior. And she is talking about doing it again.I, of course, cannot say a word about childrearing. You see, my one child is by guardianship, and that does not count in their eyes.Last edit by caroladybelle on Jan 2, '12 : Reason: Inability to get the paragraphs to set
- 20Jan 2, '12 by OCNRN63I find it extremely frustrating to deal with "The Mommies" at times. It's as if you're invisible if you don't have kids. Funny how if you don't have kids you're supposed to sit through multiple discussions about their children, but if you have something to talk about, people don't want to listen.
Even if someone doesn't have children, they still have a family. They may have a spouse, parents, siblings, etc. It really wouldn't kill "The Mommies" to ask about their childless co-workers.
- 5Jan 2, '12 by caregiver1977I have 5 children ranging in ages from 2 to 9 years old. I couldn't agree with the OP's post MORE!

Open your eyes to homelessness
They say homelessness is invisible, largely because most folks choose not to see it. I recall that old Roy Orbison ballad "Pretty Paper," which tells the story of busy holiday shoppers consumed with their own lives, blind to the homeless man on the sidewalk right in front of them. Today, in the pages of the […]cont

The Islands of Life
From mauka to makai, The Nature Conservancy works with local communities, businesses and people like you to protect Hawaii's best natural lands and waters. Since 1980, we have established a statewide system of Conservancy preserves, helped create new wildlife refuges and expand national parks, forged partnerships to protect our most important watershed forests and coral reefs, and led efforts to stem the tide of invasive species entering the state. All total, we have helped protect more than 200,000 acres in the Islands.
We invite you to join the effort to preserve Hawaii's amazing diversity of life. Together, we can help protect the plants and animals that share our world, and nature in turn can help keep alive what is best in our own lives.

Should a priest tell his congregation what they want to hear instead of the truth? That's just one of the issues raised in this witty and thought-provoking film version of Bill C. Davis' Tony-nominated Broadway hit. Jack Lemmon is Father Tim Farley, a complacent priest in a wealthy suburban parish who drives a Mercedes and cracks jokes from the pulpit. Along comes idealistic Mark Dolson (Zeljko Ivanek), a radical seminarian who accuses Farley of song and dance theology. The result is a head-on clash that teaches each man the true meaning of faith.
