Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Manchester City defender Micah Richards says the side will get a huge boost by the return of skipper Vincent Kompany.
Kompany has been suspended for the last four matches after being sent off in the FA Cup defeat against Manchester United on January 8th.
He is set to return for the Barclays Premier League match at Everton on Tuesday.
In his absence City have beaten Wigan and Tottenham in the League, but exited the Carling Cup after losing their semi-final against Liverpool 3-2 on aggregate.
"He is a leader so it will be amazing to have him back"
- Micah Richards
"He has been an unbelievable miss," said team-mate Richards, who has helped fill in at centre-back and as captain in Kompany's absence.
"He is our captain and he and Joleon (Lescott) have been our best central defensive partnership this season.
"He has played well in the big games and is a leader, so it will be amazing to have him back.
"Vinny has still been coming into the changing room before games and saying how he feels we can improve and what he would do if he was on the pitch. He has still been an influence."
The 25-year-old Kompany believes City have the ability to go undefeated in their last 16 matches as they target a first title since 1968.
"We are set up quite nicely for the finish and we're sure we're going to get even stronger in the weeks to come," he said.
"I don't see why we can't win all of our remaining games."

Holy expletive, this is gorgeous! I can't believe how good the fit is with no modifications to the top! I love the fabric and the maxi length is so dramatic. You did such a good job on this.

¡Me encanta! Te ha quedado espectacular, además es diferente a lo que se suele ver por aquí. Parece un patrón interesante.

I love the longer length! Your fabric is gorgeous and the fit looks really good
Mar 25, 2013, 10.10 AMby Sara Álvarez
Thank you! It was a hard decision, but I'm glad I made it maxi because it looks a bit more classy. I had some trouble though because as a novice I am, I didn't add properly length to the pattern, so I had to fix that later while sewing. All in all it came out pretty well!

Beautiful dress and it's fit you so well.

The Master of Rehabilitation Counseling Program is a full-time, two-year post-baccalaureate program that begins in September. The 60-hour curriculum focuses on psychology, rehabilitation, and clinical experience working with people with disabilities. To maximize faculty and student interaction, our courses are offered in a traditional classroom setting Monday through Friday during business hours.
The dynamic curriculum includes course work, internships, and research projects that teach you the theory and skills critical to effective rehabilitation counseling:
- Rehabilitation history
- Psychological assessment
- Counseling theory and techniques
- Behavioral approaches to psychosocial adjustment
- Personality dynamics and theory
- Occupational information and vocational appraisal
- Community organization and resources
- Cultural diversity
- Family and group interventions
You can orient your training toward people with severe disabilities, including head injury, psychiatric illness, and developmental disabilities. Faculty members with neuropsychology expertise help guide research projects and develop skills in these growing areas.
We've designed the curriculum to balance skills training in counseling and assessment. You'll receive in-depth training in cognitive-behavioral and client-centered counseling. You'll also gain assessment skills that will enable you to administer and interpret cognitive, achievement, and personality tests that help guide rehabilitation goals and objectives.
This dual training prepares graduates to sit for several certification and licensing exams, including licensed professional counselor, certified rehabilitation counselor, and licensed psychological associate.
We've sequenced the curriculum to create an effective and efficient path for learning. Many of the courses in a given semester are prerequisites for the courses that follow in the next semester. Some sequencing may change from year to year without notice. It may be possible to substitute some courses and take electives from other area institutions if you request and receive permission in advance from the Graduate Studies Committee.

kerrythekyd is home in Amsterdam
I am 4 months pregnant and working in consulting. I've been very successful at this job despite being quite young and having to learn lots on the job. I've also never been in a place where I feel more valued or where I can express my talents better.
But I have a baby on the way and the circumstances under which I work are contrary to my core values about how I want to raise my baby. I want to be present and not trading a few stolen hours with my baby for money (albeit a lot of money)
I'm looking for a way to make money, be happy and yet be at home in the afternoons and evenings. Morning only work, or work when I need to only.
What can this mystery job be?That is the questions

Comments about Dollhouse Onida Wedge:
I bought these shoes and was really excited because they were basically my first pair of heels, but after the second or third wear, the rubber on the bottom and the rope stuff started falling off, (but nothing a little super glue can't fix!!!:)) I do love them though!!! The cherries are ADORABLE! I bought them with a black dress and they go amazing together!!! Just so you know, it is black not navy blue... :)

Guest blog – Of Shopping and Men – a tentative
- By Maya
- December 18, 2011
- 3 Comments
Having been silent for many weeks now, I have decided to rekindle my relationship with you by letting a guest blogger express his opinion. This is what Andreas wrote when I asked him to tell me something about his relationship to shopping. What do you think?
Spending a few days in New York has always been a very special experience. Great food in elegant, mythical, superlative restaurants, walks – sometimes even jogs – on the High Line, museums and comedy clubs – are a few elements of the ever-exciting journey. But a few days in New York also mean intensive Shopping.
For instance at Barneys. Owning over 350 pairs of shoes is still not enough for my girlfriend and she will always need something new, because exactly this model is still missing in her collection. So I got to know all the floors at Barneys by heart. Needless to say that I have used each and every sitting opportunity – and I would like to thank the people at Barneys who have understood that a male individual does not need to formulate an opinion about each and every hanging dress and that he sometimes needs a short break from perusing the endless racks throughout the many floors. And let's not forget that without me too close, the sales associate can communicate freely with one of their favorite customers – aka my girlfriend – , because the sitting opportunities are always a bit far from the clothes racks.
But there are also floors that I very much like. The shoe floor, for instance. There a few things as fascinating as watching a woman getting transformed into someone totally different simply by putting on a pair of shoes. How she suddenly is perceived differently because she moves in a straighter, sexier manner, thanks to a pair of high heels. There a very few places where one can admire so many beautiful women on such a small surface and get a glimpse of what can be a really intimate moment.
But I also cannot help wondering why those women willingly and gladly impose on themselves the whole stress of trying on, putting on and off clothes and shoes so many times. In my opinion, women do this solely because they always want to reinvent themselves, because they never want to become boring and just want to stay desirable – to the others but also to themselves. And this is a reason enough for me to play along and be interested. And when my interest is true, it is often impatient and very enlightening. Which guy who has grown up solely wearing jeans and t-shirts and who works in very technical field mostly with other guys can say that he is able to recognize a Dior dress, a pair of Louboutin shoes, a Moschino, Lanvin, Comme des Garçons or Marni piece of clothing just by looking at a rack? And believe me that this knowledge can really be useful in better understanding my female counterparts and their relationship to shoes, clothes, hair and makeup and this understanding is even very useful in my professional life because it gives me clues about how interesting a personality someone can have.
Don't get me wrong – I often need to overcome my natural instincts especially when all I want to do is check out the latest gadgets at Best Buy or cameras at Adorama. And interestingly enough, in spite of all my Shopping tolerance (and sometimes – let's be honest – huge efforts), when I ask her to come along, I just hit a granite wall and have to go alone. Arguments and pleas – e.g. that I have already been 4 times to Barneys in less than a week - are unfortunately useless – I have unfortunately come to realize.
And this is when I ask myself: are women simply intransigent beings that only want to do what they want to do? And from the time I got my answer I go along shopping with the self-control and patience of a Zen master, because yes, they are. But the crazy thing is that they don't just do it for themselves. They also do it for us men. Unlike us.

Cool post, andreas. Love your viewpoint and the philosophy behind your shopping tolerance. Your girlfriend is one lucky shopper…
What you hint at here is relatively profound. Shopping isn't just about making purchases, of course. There is a deeper psychology at play here and retailers like Barney's know this – hence their success.
I admire your willingness to even spend much time in the shoe or clothing dept when you would rather be at Best Buy. I also appreciate that you see how important and gratifying the whole process is for your girlfriend. Now, if only they could get some snack machines in Barney's…
Happy New Year!
Miss you!

34 Perfectly Timed Mid-Air Poses
- topic:
- Humor
- Photos
- Art / Design
Sometimes getting a perfect picture means taking a billion photographs of nothing, blurry and off time by only a moment or two. When the goal is achieved, however, two long hours of jumping on the trampoline with a cat feel totally worth it. Here are 34 pictures taken at just the right time: when the subject was jumping and posing in mid-air.
The old standard: a jumping jack.
Leaping silhouette.
"Oh no, Dave! Your car's being towed!"
Trust exercise.
Talk about morning grumpiness.
Hay, does anyone have a feeling she's going to bale?
Jumping rocks!
Nice focus, nice jammies.
Running on air.
Blort, the levitating demon cat.
Water nymph.
The levitating trio.
Super boy.
School's out.
Leaping in the sunset.
Hanging by a thread.
Checking his toenails.
Enlightenment = achieved.
Kick his tiny head off!
Interspecies competition.
Skinny jumping.
Her first flight.
We'd be worried about the landing, too.
Invisible bike.
Flying polish boy.
This air mattress is great for the lower back.
He can read an amazing 17 words per jump.
You'll have to think of another way of impressing this one, buddy.
Split personality.
Showing off.
"Peter, look out! A pot h---Never mind."

Fun in the Sun Ideas for Baby
The sun is shining and the temps are rising. It must be summer! Get ready to slather on the sunblock and dig out those adorable floppy hats. We asked a few moms for their favorite summertime activities with baby. Their great ideas will keep you and your cutie busy from now to well past Labor Day.
Soapy Swim
"We set up a kiddie pool in the backyard. As a baby my son didn't like bath time, but he loved being outside in that kiddie pool. We'd fill it with warm soapy water to help kill two birds with one stone!" - Jane F.
"There's an outdoor mall near our house that has fountains that spout water up from the ground. As an infant my son loved just watching them, but now that he has started walking and the weather is really warm I let him run through them. On a hot day I walk him home in the stroller and by the time we get back he's all dried off!" - Cerena V.
Aquarium Adventure
"We love playing outside, but when the temperature gets too high, one of my favorite places to go with my son Gabe during the summer is the Adventure Aquarium. It's actually inside with air conditioning so it's a nice way to beat the heat. We have a yearly pass so all I have to pay for is parking. It's a great way to spend a hot summer day." - Meri D.
Hang with Friends
"The moms in my neighborhood make it a point to schedule regular play dates at our local park during the summer months. Even when the babies are super small they get a kick out of laying on blankets in the grass with their buddies. It's a great way to be social and get outside." - Rochelle S.
Ocean Breezes
"I love going to the beach with my baby. We bring a little play tent so that she can keep out of the sun a bit. She loves playing with her pail and shovel in the sand and watching the waves. And I think all of the fresh ocean air helps her sleep better at night, too." - Janelle G.
Fun with Bubbles
"When the weather is warm we set up shop in the backyard and break out the bubble wand – my son Jack is crazy about bubbles! I can't get enough of listening to his giggles as he tries to 'catch' them." - Melissa B.
Shop the Markets
"I love taking my twins to farmers markets in the summer. It's a great way for me to pick up healthy options for our meals and there's so much for the babies to look at and observe." - Diane B.
Take in the View
"Ceana loves to lay in the backyard and look up at the sky and trees around her. We put a blanket down on the grass and lay with her. Sometimes we take our naps outside, too. It's so relaxing." - Julie S.

Join I.M.O.W. for an evening conversation with Liesl Gerntholtz, director of the Women's Rights Division for Human Rights Watch. Human Rights Watch is leading the charge on women's rights around the world. Please join us to hear how Gerntholtz and her team are raising the cost of abuse to bring greater justice and security to women around the world.
This year alone Human Rights Watch has shed light on rape as a weapon of war; documented maternal mortality as a rights violation; and improved the lives of female domestic migrant workers on the ground.
Gerntholtz, just back from an emergency mission to Haiti, has uncovered increased risk of sexual violence for recently homeless women--reminding us that women are vulnerable to different kinds of rights violations that too often are forgotten.
Liesl Gerntholtz joined Human Rights Watch in May 2008 as the director of the Women's Rights Division. She previously served as the Executive Director of the Tshwaranang Legal Advocacy Centre to End Violence Against Women in Johannesburg. In addition to providing regular briefings to the South African parliament she was involved in high impact strategic litigation - including a successful case to help change the definition of rape in South Africa. Prior to this, Liesl was manager of the legal unit of the AIDS Law Project of South Africa. From 1998-2000 she served as head of the Legal Department at the Commission on Gender Equality in South Africa. She practiced as a member of the Johannesburg bar for 6 years after obtaining her BA LL.B from the University of Witwatersrand, and before joining the Legal Department of the South African Human Rights Commission. Liesl is currently a member of the advisory committee for OSI Law and Health Initiative and a member of the advisory board for the Southern Africa Litigation Centre's HIV/AIDS Program. In 2007, she was included in the Mail and Guardian's 100 Top South African Women.
Human Rights Watch is one of the world's leading independent organizations dedicated to defending and protecting human rights. By focusing international attention where human rights are violated, HRW gives voice to the oppressed and holds oppressors accountable for their crimes. For 30 years, Human Rights Watch has worked tenaciously to lay the legal and moral groundwork for deep-rooted change and has fought to bring greater justice and security to people around the world.

My client wants an elephant cake topper holding a floating balloon. I realize the 'string' attaching the balloon would be wire but still wouldn't a 3D gumpaste balloon be too heavy to hold up? I have done 2D stars and hearts in the past and they sag. Do I just need a stronger wire?

On gossip…
Radhanath Swami: Great personalities are like swans, someone who is always seeking the essence and not concerned with anything else. They see only the good qualities in others and do not take any pleasure in hearing about faults in others. Only if it's necessary to help someone, they may point out some faults. My spiritual master Srila Prabhupada gives the analogy of crow and swan to explain fault finding. Crows are very eager to taste sewage and other forms of abominable stuff whereas the swan is only interested in tasting the nectar from the inner whorl of the Lotus flower.
Sometimes people, like crows, are addicted to gossip and loose talk and they feed on literature which talks only about other people's scandals, and their personal mundane activities. But Swan like people do not care for these things. We have examples of saints like Raghunath Bhatt Goswami, Haridasa Pandit, Anantacarya and many others who would never listen about faults in any other person. If someone would speak of the faults in another devotee they would simply walk away because they believed that the fact that a person is serving God is good enough for them.
Definitely, it's not an easy standard to follow. So to avoid developing a habit of fault finding, like saintly people we have to get into a habit of hearing something better and higher. By hearing glories of God and his pastimes, our mind will stop feeding on garbage like a crow and become absorbed in goodness like a swan. – Radhanath Swami
One Response to "On gossip…"
pustakrishna says : Log in to Reply
sevon mukhe hi jihvado…spiritual practice begins with the tongue, ie chanting the glories of the Holy Names. Sometimes we learn that Sravana, hearing is the beginning of spiritual life, ie to hear from bonafide spiritual authorities. Indeed, both hearing and chanting are important practices in Krishna consciousness. We can see practically that the impulses, the "vegas" are always arising. Srila Rupa Goswami suggests that we must tolerate these urges. ..etan vegan so vishaheta dhira, and become undisturbed by the impulses that the senses and mind are subjected to. The three gunas will continue to rise and fall incessantly, but a bhakta can remain undisturbed, and can avoid chasing the urges of the senses and the mind. Then the higher engagement must be taken to heart, to chant the Holy Names constantly…kirtanayah sada Hari.
The bhakta is the best of all yogis, as Krishna relates in the last verse of the 6th. chapter of the Bhagavad Gita. Yoginam api sarvesam… thus, all the challenging practices of yoga are accomplished in one direct endeavour by the bhakta. Srila Prabhupad describes in the Bhagavad Gita when discussing Sri Krishna's discussion of the gunas, that detachment automatically comes from the Krishna conscious practice. Essentially, he declares that one may be in the world, but not of it. A fine discrimination takes place, as Radhanath Maharaj describes, like a swan, who can discriminate between matter and spirit, and who can thereby relish association with Krishna at every stage of bhakti. This kind of transcendental knowledge is not available anywhere else but in the Vaishnava line, being connected to the disciplic succession of Sri Krishna. It is beyond mundane practice of religiosity. It is beyond fruitive activity for personal profit. So fortunate to have the connection with Srila Prabhupad in this brief sojourn. Hare Krishna.

I was born in Cooma, New South Wales. The gateway to the Snowy Mountains and near the Australian ski resorts of Thredbo and Perisher. And after spending much of my early childhood in South East Asia I returned home to where my passion for photography took hold.
Now living in Sydney's Northern Beaches my passion lives on.
I have travelled the globe taking photographs, from the Winter Olympics in Italy, to the mecca of skiing at Utah's Little Cottonwood Canyon, to the isolation of Western China.
Over the years I have photographed all sorts of things, but I always end up returning to cycling. One of the more beautiful and interesting sports.
I have won the Cycling Australia Photograph of the Year for four of the past eight years and had photos regularly appear throughout international press.
Like all photographers, I strive to get the best photographs I can, with my ideal to showing truth, passion and the emotion of what just happened before my eyes.
So please enjoy my photos, and I hope to see you soon with my camera in hand.

Salman Khan can play both Shahrukh and Aamir!
One should think twice before speaking anything about superstar Salman Khan. If you dare to take panga with bhai, you are in for a danger. But, filmmaker Karan Johar was possibly not aware of this. Karan had recently said that he will end up in the hospital, if he does a film with all the three Khans in Bollywood. Johar's statement did not go down well with Salman and he did not leave a chance to hit back at the filmmaker.
According to a leading daily, Salman Khan, during an interview said, "I am very happy that you met Karan before meeting me. First you have to tell me, which three Khans are you speaking about? Bolne mein kya jaata hai! Anyway, I can play all the three Khans together." He added, "I will don Shahrukh's RA.One look, my Dabangg look and Aamir's Ghajini look."
We hope the two other Bollywood Khans are listening to this. No wonder, many of us believe that Salman is a very unique actor. Not only that he delivers great acting skills in his movies, also he is known for his great style and attitude.

Stephen Monk '15 (main photo) teamed with Donald Kleckner '13 for a convincing 8-2 victory at third doubles as Wesleyan carred a 2-1 lead in singles play against Babson Fri., Oct. 5. Also winning for Wesleyan was the doubles tandem of Zach Brint '16 and Michael King '16 at #1, 8-6.
But the Cardinals came up with only two victories in singles action as Monk came back after dropping a first-set tie-breaker to take the next two sets, 6-2, 6-3 for a win at #2 and Charlie Seifer '15 produced a straight-set triumph at #6, 6-4, 6-4. The other four matches went to the Beavers as they claimed a 5-4 win, just their second ever win over Wesleyan in 16 all-time meetings. Babson had taken the first match between the squads during the 1996-97 season before Wesleyan rattled off 14 in a row through 2010-11.
The final action of the fall came up for the Cardinals Sat., Oct. 13 when Amherst visited Middletown. Wesleyan gave it the old college try against its Little Three rival and got a solid win at #4 singles from Sam Rudovsky '16 (photo insert lower right), 6-2, 6-2, but Amherst took the other eight points, but not without a fight. Jeff Legunn '13 at #1 singles, King at #3 and Brint at #6 all took a set from their Lord Jeff rivals and fell in a super tie-breaker. Legunn fell, 11-9; King, 10-7; and Brint, also 10-7 in the super tie-breaker. Also stretching Amherst to the brink was the #1 doubles tandem of King and Brint as they fell, 9-8.
The Cardinals will resume action during their March break trip south for training and matches.

Rite Aid Raises Record-Breaking $5.9 Million For Children's Miracle Network Hospitals
Rite Aid announced today that it raised $5.9 million for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in 2012, exceeding the prior year's campaign by 41% and making 2012 the highest single-year fundraising total in the drugstore chain's 18 years of support for the charity. The money raised by Rite Aid funds critical care, ground-breaking research and life-saving equipment at 95 Children's Miracle Network Hospitals in communities served by Rite Aid. Since becoming a sponsor in 1994, Rite Aid has raised more than $56 million for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals.
"Rite Aid hit a fundraising milestone in 2012 by raising a record-breaking amount of vital funds for local children's hospitals," said John Lauck, president and CEO, Children's Miracle Network Hospitals. "We are grateful for our long-standing partnership with Rite Aid and the amazing efforts of Rite Aid associates nationwide. On behalf of our member hospitals, we look forward to working together in 2013 and for many years to come, with the common goal of improving the lives of millions of children served by Children's Miracle Network Hospitals each year."
In addition to its annual Miracle Balloon campaign each spring, Rite Aid also raised funds through its first-ever mobile and social media campaign, which allowed customers to donate via mobile text messaging and the company's Facebook page. Additional funds were raised through community fundraisers including now-annual events like the spring plant sale at the company's Wilsonville, Ore., distribution center, a bowl-a-thon hosted by the Rite Aid in Poquoson, Va., and a fishing trip organized by Rite Aid associates in Mobile, Ala. And, each summer at the company's headquarters in Camp Hill, Pa., members of Rite Aid's management team help raise funds by washing cars and competing in various activities.
"Each year, Rite Aid associates give their all when it comes to fundraising for Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and this year, the results of their efforts were truly phenomenal," said Ken Martindale, Rite Aid chief operating officer and president of The Rite Aid Foundation. "With the support of our customers, our associates raised a record-breaking $5.9 million for the children's hospitals in the communities we serve. I want to thank them for their dedication to Children's Miracle Network Hospitals and for once again, delivering on our core value of being a caring neighbor."

I have noticed a difference in Nordic and central European nature photography that I find interesting. My impression is that nature photography in the Nordic countries is a wider term than it is in the rest of Europe. In Norway at least photographing remains of human settlement and old farmland are also considered nature photography. But is it? My colleagues in Europe seem to have a more puristic view, only working with the untouched natural habitats. But what is nature? In my picture above I photograph the drifting snow, the clouds and the light, but with a clear human element in the form of the stone fence. Is this nature photography? What if I was photographing a Short-eared Owl sitting on this same fence? I would love to hear your thoughts on this matter.

Due Date Question
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 01-24-2012 - 8:03am
Hi Everyone! So I have been given two pretty different due dates and I'm curious which one you would go by if you were me. If you go off my LMP then my date would be 8/18. When I had an ultrasound 2 weeks ago and they measured the baby and said my due date was 8/28. The nurse at my family doc said that we would use the 8/18 date - but I haven't seen my OB yet. I see you on Feb 14. So which date should I trust?
|Tue, 01-24-2012 - 8:13am
See, I don't know. My LMP EDD is 8/8, but at my 7w US (or maybe it was at the 5w, not sure), baby measured at an EDD of 8/5 -- that's the date my OB is using and the date I'm going by at this point. 3 days isn't a big deal, so I don't really care one way or the other. 10 days is kind of a lot just from the perspective of if you don't deliver by your EDD, they may induce (though with my first, 19 years ago, they let me go 8 days after my EDD before inducing and she arrived technically 9 days late). If this is your first, then they may just let you go a while as well. And, being on the inside of 10 days from your EDD, even if they do induce, by then the baby is all set. As long as you get to about 38w, baby is pretty much considered full-term. Baby just won't weigh as much as s/he would otherwise. I was induced 12d prior to our 3rd's EDD and he was 7'11 -- a good pound+ lighter than both #1 and #2. I practically sneezed him out, so that was really nice. :)
At this point, were it me, I'd wait to see what the OB says. For now maybe you could split the difference?
|Tue, 01-24-2012 - 9:59am
|Tue, 01-24-2012 - 10:25am
If your cycle is regular, or if you know when you O'ed, than I go with the date of your LMP or date of conception.
|Wed, 01-25-2012 - 3:33pm
According to the u/s tech to did my u/s at 7 weeks, they are extremely accurate during the first trimester.

I really enjoy singing. I've recently joined a local community choir, and it not only makes you feel better about yourself, and more confident and generally happier but it also makes you feel very much part of a group and community and very valued.
I know that singing isn't everybody's favourite activity.Yours might be sport, dance or even walking a dog.You may prefer more individual free time leisure activities rather than being in a group. But the question is how do you feel after doing the activity? Do you feel happier and more positive about everything?
I've recently been watching a TV series on BBC called The Choir (Singing in The workplace).If you haven't watched it, the programme is about setting up different choirs in different workplace environments and then they compete with each other, with a final winner at the end. However, the aim of the programme isn't about actually winning, but the process involved.How some of the participants found that singing was great for working morale, particularly if their jobs were insecure and being threatened.
Click on the image below and read an article about how singing at work helped the morale of workers at Birmingham City Council.
How did being part of a choir make the workers feel?
What were the positive benefits?
Why do they think that workers morale is so important?

I was so excited to receive this bedding and get started on redoing my bedroom. I was so disappointed with the quality of this comforter. I didnt even need to take it out of the package. I could tell right away it wasn't good. I unzipped it and felt it and knew it was going back. If you are a teenager, this might work, but for a 42 year old, newly single woman who is trying to redo her bedroom, this wasnt it. I'm returning it and choosing something else.
Very beautiful comforter set. The white is very white! The review said dry clean only, but on the comforter set it did say it was washable! There were a few seems that were not sewn very straight, but it still looks nice. I would recommend it, just dont expect perfection.
Didn't realize the floral black pattern was flocked which gives it a dimensional feel. On the comforter near the black satin border some of the flocked floral pattern was missing or had rubbedd off. Really liked the pattern and colors it but decided to return it because was afraid it would not wear well since we have a dog.
LOVE my new comforter! The print is gorgeous and I love that the flower pattern is velvety. I am disappointed by the lumpy stuffing inside the comforter tho.
It seems to be a good quality set. It looks great. I have white and black cats, so it all blends well.
I have a Queen size bed and I bought a King set and it fits perfect. I was very surprised how good it look. I love It....
It didn't even fit my bed. It was too small. I had to return it.
love it !
The set is well made and looks lovely on the bed.It is worth every penny

With the English bid I said: Let us be brief. If you give back the Falkland Islands, which belong to us, you will get my vote. They then became sad and left
I also got some horrible messages from our unsavoury friend. Thanks to PEWS and Fusion for deleting them. However the worst was that this guy for some reason was targeting Howe. Kept making horrible references regarding him on my VM.
Wonder what I did to get on the blacklist?

It seems that Sean Fogerty is not working on a CD. During the period that we were Facebook friends, I repeatedly asked him about it and got no response, so it's safe to say there is no CD.

This morning my email box was full of two things. More questions for me in the open forum post (which turned into forum where y'all just pelted me with questions rather than the drunken happy hour I imagined…) and links to a story on the Daily Mail about Kenya's outrageous behavior on Celebrity Apprentice!
Celebrity Apprentice is a show about wealthy A-list celebrities who come together to hold hands and sing Kumbaya and pray that the lord will help all the little people with charitable needs. Everyone loves everyone and they work together in peace and harmony for the children with no legs.
Oh wait, that's not it at all Celebrity Apprenctice is show put together by Donald Trump where he collects together some D-list TV actors and puts them on teams with people he knows they will hate and forces them to work together for a celebrity cause. Notoriously the men do very well in the beginning as the women focus all of their time attacking each other. As the game progresses, The final player try to balance working with people they do not like to bring down the hopes and dreams of the other team.
After each task Donald calls them into the boardroom and rails on them for being such fucktards. He picks one of the players and screams YOU'RE FIRED! This happens to everyone except the final winner. It's how the show works. Sometimes Donald even screams YOU'RE FIRED! at two people in the board room telling them the both suck. Some people like Nene Leakes do not get fired because they throw a hissyfit and quit the show because people are not bowing down to her. But most of the time, the process of leaving the show is "getting fired." Continue reading

'Vanishing Twin' Linked To Birth Defects In Surviving Baby
The strange "vanishing twin" phenomenon, in which only one child is born from a multiple pregnancy, has been shown to lead to an increased risk for congenital deformities in the surviving baby.
Asian Scientist Newsroom | July 5, 2011 | Health
AsianScientist (Jul. 5, 2011) – The strange "vanishing twin" phenomenon, in which only one child is born from a multiple pregnancy, has been shown to lead to an increased risk for congenital deformities in the surviving baby.
This was reported today at the annual meeting of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology by Prof. Michael Davies, Associate Professor and co-director of the Research Center for the Early Origins of Health and Disease at the University of Adelaide.
This "vanishing twin" phenomenon, also known as fetal resorption, may not have been easily studied with natural pregnancies, since the majority of pregnancy losses, including vanishing twins, occur in the early days and weeks of pregnancy, often before the woman even knows that she is pregnant.
However, women undergoing fertility treatment can be monitored from the moment the eggs are fertilized and transferred to the woman's womb by pregnancy tests and ultrasounds.
Davies and his team studied data from all assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles that took place in South Australia between January 1986 and December 2002, and linked them to registry data on birth defects and cerebral palsy.
They identified cases in which a fetus had been lost by comparing routine six-week ultrasound data, which would show the presence of an empty fetal sac, and the number of babies actually delivered. These results were compared with pregnancies without any fetal loss.
Of the 7,462 babies delivered during this period, in pregnancies where ultrasound had detected an empty fetal sac at six weeks, 14.6 percent of babies born had subsequent congenital malformations. Hence, the presence of an empty sac is linked to a nearly two-fold increased risk for congenital malformation and to a nearly three-fold risk of multiple malformations in the surviving baby.
Multiple pregnancies without any fetal loss were not associated with an increase in malformations when compared with single pregnancies without fetal loss.
The associated birth defects in the surviving twin was similar for fetal losses after the first six weeks as well.
"It appears that the developmental competency or 'quality' of embryos in twins is related. Where one fails to develop, it appears to be an important indicator of the health of the survivor," said Davis.
Davis suggests that his data may be generalized to fraternal twins.
"It may be possible to generalize these results to birth defects seen in fraternal twins – twins created from two separate eggs – from spontaneous pregnancies in the general population. This is important from the point of reproductive biology," he said.
Davies believes that the same mechanism may operate in spontaneously conceived pregnancies, and may explain why a family history of miscarriage or a previous miscarriage is a risk factor for birth defects in a singleton pregnancy. These studies may also explain why both twinning and birth defects increase with maternal age.
For women who undergo fertility treatment, Davis worries that multiple embryos may compromise the embryos that survive to birth.
"Creating and using multiple embryos of lower quality may increase the risk of a developmentally compromised embryo both being selected for transfer and surviving to birth," he said.
Davis and his team intend to understand the mechanisms behind these findings, and also study whether it could be used to predict and improve embryo quality such as to drastically reduce the risk of congenital malformations in ART babies.

Written by Steve 'Frosty' Weintraub
As most of you know, opening tomorrow is director Kyle Newmans Star Wars inspired movie Fanboys.
While I couldve interviewed Kyle at the recent Los Angeles press junket for his movie, since Kyle and I are friends, I didnt think one of those formal interviews was the best idea. Instead, I pitched Kyle on the idea of him and I having a conversation about Star Wars, Fanboys, toys, and showing off what makes him a geek like all of us. Thankfully, Kyle thought it was a great idea and just a few days ago I ventured over to his house (with Erico from Omelete) to film what youre about to watch.
If you ever wanted to know what Kyles office looked like and what collectibles he keeps around, youll dig this. Also, we talked about everything from collecting toys to what will be on the Fanboys DVD. Since the interview is pretty long, you can see what we talked about above each part.
And here are a few other Fanboys links you might want to check out:
4 movie clips from Fanboys
Exclusive Video Interviews from the Fanboys Premiere
Dan Fogler, Chris Marguette and Sam Huntington Video Interviews from the Fanboys Press Junket
Finally, a big thank you to Kyle for agreeing to do this interview!
Kyle Newman - Part 1
· What geek cred does he bring to the table he shows off part of his Star Wars collection
· Did he open all his toys or keep it in the package
· We talk Power of the Force figures
· Did he ever make dioramas with his figures
· We go through his toys and collectibles
· Comic book talk
· When he goes to comic con what does he look for as a fan of Star Wars
Kyle Newman - Part 2
· Fanboys talk what is it like for him to have the movie finally about to come out
· Kyle talks about all the false starts
· He talks about how he got the movie back and what went on behind the scenes
· Whats his take on George Lucas constantly adjusting the Star Wars movies
· Clone Wars cartoon
· Star Wars live action TV show talk
Kyle Newman - Part 3
· Fanboys DVD /Blu-ray talk
· What is he working on now
· Emo Boy comic book talk
· We talk about My Bloody Valentine 3D and Final Destination
· If he were ever asked to work on the Star Wars live action show
would he give up doing another movie to do it

Knowing all about your competitors is good business. Understanding business opponents' products and processes, sales figure and suppliers, capacity and customers as well as technology and staff training can really give a company competitive edge. Insider knowledge gained at the right moment could be used to destroy, neutralise or fatally wound an enemy organisation… with the ultimate objective of becoming brand leader.
Hence the importance of business secrets and the efforts companies go to in protecting themselves against spies from the opposition. There are, as a result, all sorts of business myths, for instance that only a handful (literally) of chosen people know the secret formula for a certain product. It was once noted that only five (or three or seven… it does not matter) people know the part recipe for Coca-Cola and that they are never able to meet and are strictly forbidden from flying on the same plane. A likely story.
Certainly, the knowledge of ingredients and their amounts in certain unique products are worth protecting, but so is the manufacturing process. Companies also have favoured exclusive suppliers, loyal customers who receive special deals, and technologies that maybe uniquely efficient, low-cost or innovative (knowing how) competitors do things is worth a great deal.

Keratin Complex Style Therapy Glowtion Potion Styling Oil
Based on 2 Reviews
Marleny C.Houston, TXHairDark BrownDry HairThick or Coarse HairWorks Great!When my hair stylist used this on my hair, I was so amazed how my hair looked! My hair normally looks dry & frizzy, but with this stuff, my frizz was gone & looked shiny & healthy. My stylist used it before blow drying my hair, after that my hair already looked great already, soft & frizz free. I could never get my hair to do that before with the products I was using because my hair is so thick & wavy! So I ordered it when I got home & I still love it! It works well when air-drying, too. I live in a super humid city so my hair doesn't stay straight (it never does no matter what I use), but this holds up well & still keeps the frizz away. & a little goes a long way too! I have a lot of hair, but I don't need much of this product. I would definitely recommend.2 out of 2 shoppers thought this review was helpful.

By Kendall Martin
I expect courtesy from co-workers when working in a team environment. We each hold different positions in the hierarchy of the company, but I still expect that all team members receive the same amount of respect. Whether we're working on a product launch, a revised marketing strategy or a streamlined approach to a project, every person is contributing to the greater goal.
Communicating with respect can be the difference between a successful team project and one that leaves people feeling defeated, underappreciated and resentful. Those morale-busting emotions are easily avoided if all team members pay attention to how they communicate up and down the ladder. Follow these tips and ensure that you make everyone on your team feel appreciated:
- Listen to team members. When in a position of power, many people unconsciously tune out the opinions or ideas of others. Always consider that other team members may have discovered alternate solutions that are worth discussing. If every team member feels their opinions are valued and there is an equal playing field, they are apt to work harder and smarter.
- Include all relevant team members in communication. If you are depending on email to work out project details or discuss ideas, be sure you are including all team members involved in the assignment. Never assume information will naturally be relayed to the appropriate party. Open communication can save a lot of time and prevent mistakes.
- Be polite. While each team member has tasks that are a direct function of their job, it never hurts to say "please" or "thank you." Those words go a long way in establishing positive relationships among team members. Instead of saying, "Take care of this by Monday," you can easily say, "Please take care of this by Monday," and the entire tone changes.
What do you find most important when communicating on a team?

Research at DSU
Dakota State University's growing research enterprise is rooted in its mission as South Dakota's technology university. Over the past decade, DSU has taken significant strides in establishing an environment where scholarship and research are promoted and supported across campus.
Information systems and information technologies (IT) are at the core of the research agenda in the College of Business and Information Systems. IT research at DSU is supported by DSU's Doctor of Science and Masters programs in Information Systems, Information Assurance, and Health Informatics. DSU researchers are developing new, innovative approaches in computer and network security, with a particular emphasis on securing the banking and financial infrastructure. Addressing the realization that we are currently living in a data rich — yet information poor — environment, another research focus is on analytics, decision support systems and knowledge management. The emphasis is on the development of innovative techniques for leveraging rich data environments for improved decision making. DSU research in health informatics focuses on leveraging IT to improve the quality of care while reducing health care cost.
Research is also growing in the College of Arts & Sciences. Partnerships with other universities in physics research have helped connect Dakota State University to research planned for the Deep Underground Science Laboratory at Lead (DUSEL/SUSEL). Research in wildlife sciences and water quality anchors the biology program on campus and benefits wildlife management programs in the Department of Game, Fish and Parks and the quality of life in Lake County.
The College of Education, through its Master of Science program in Educational Technology, is involved in research on the integration of computer technologies into curriculum and instruction. The program recognizes that computers and technology have become a significant part of the teaching and learning process, and realizes that addressing the information needs of teachers has become key to integrating technology into the class- room and increasing student learning.
As part of the Higher Learning Commission accreditation process, DSU adopted an AQIP Action Project to build a culture of research at DSU. To date, faculty input has been acquired through a campus survey and focus groups, and best practices in changing institutional culture have been identified. Using this input, specific tasks have been articulated and a timeline for implementation set. The project is scheduled for completion in 2013. The outcome of the project will be institutional processes and resources that are aligned to reflect an organizational culture that celebrates discovery, invention, and imaginative application in the arts, sciences and technology.
