Normal for in-laws to fully finance 27 and 24 yr old kids?
Find a Conversation
|Sat, 09-08-2012 - 12:54am
Is it normal for parents of 27 and 24 year old sons to fully finance every aspect of their life? They are still in college but it seems a little old to me for the parents to be paying for everything from car insurance to gas to tuition to rent to food to cell phones to car notes. Not to mention the parents step in for any and every problem they have? I wasn't raised like this so it seems a little strange to me.
|Tue, 10-02-2012 - 12:16pm
I also think what you are saying makes very good sense. I have two boys in college and I don't want them working now - again - for us, their job is to get this education out of the way so that they can be successful in the future. I also can see your point about medical school or law school.
I personally, hate to see so many kids getting out of college loaded with debt. I just think they are setting themselves up for failure. My boys know there are limits to what we can and will do for them financially and it does come with obligations on their part - just not job obligations now.
|Mon, 10-01-2012 - 11:34pm
So if a parent CAN afford to finance a 20-something year old's life they should??
Like some PP said, there is no one-size-fit-all answer to that. For example, if the 20-something is in medical school, and the parents have the means and the desire to do so, I don't see anything wrong with that. It is extremely rare that someone could go to medical school and hold down a part-time job.
There is also more than one way to teach a child financial responsibility. My parents funded my entire undergraduate education. (I worked now and then, mostly for play money). They did, however, told me that my job is to study hard and get good grades. I don't think their action made me financially ignorant or irresponsible. I have a savings, checking, and money market account since I was 15 and started contributing to retirement at 16. I have no credit card debt, no car loans, and paid off the mortgage of my primary residence shortly after I turned 40.
|Tue, 09-25-2012 - 11:18am
Not the norm, but, everyone is different.
The best thing to do here is step back and not interfere in other people's relationships.
|Wed, 09-12-2012 - 5:44pm
I think it's becoming more and more common.
I personally don't think it's a good trend.
I have a 27 and 24 year old daughters. Both are dating boys who are being fully funded by their parents. I know it frustrates my dd's and at times makes them both feel sorry for themselves. Oh well . . . That's their boyfriends' parents choice. Not to fund my children fully is my choice too.
|Mon, 09-10-2012 - 10:26am
Good Point - College/univeristy is a time for kids to make that adjustment of leaving their parents homes and fending for themselves. My DH and I laugh at some of the things our boys have had to figure out on their own...
an example - middle son at 18 was helping a girl and friend move from their apartment - they used his jeep (old cherokee) to move the mattress - couldn't find rope and decided to use kite string - I'm laughing as I type this....but it was a great lesson to learn. Really???? Kite string??? I think even my 10 year old could have figured that out but hey - we all do stupid things, that's how we learn.
|Sun, 09-09-2012 - 8:46pm
<I might not have taken it as seriously had I not had to do the work myself>
I agree with you, many kids need to "have some skin in the game" to really take school seriously and appreciate the help that they are receiving. The time at university is also about more than just academics, they are getting a taste of living semi-independently. Learning how to handle money is part of that education.
|Sun, 09-09-2012 - 4:24pm
27 seems a bit old to me - I wasn't raised with any help and quite honestly I'm okay with it. It would have been nice to have someone foot the bill but who knows I might not have taken it as seriously had I not had to do the work myself. It's hard to say. I have two boys in college 21 and 19 and I pay for everything. They are both in Engineering and I truly understand what a difficult degree that is. I don't want them working now. But, I've already told my son that if he goes to law school we'll help some but quite honestly, we have to start saving for ourselves.
In your question and at 24 and 27 if there are no graduate degrees being earned or/and if the kids are acting irresponsible and just taking advantage and being lazy then no - it is absolutely unacceptable. Is it normal? Well, sadly many from my experience have thought that they had to do this for the good of their kids, when in fact often they are just creating kids that can not fend for themselves and will live a lifetime of sponging off of others.
Tell us more about the 27 and 24 year olds. And, about their parents? Every situation is different.
As for is it any of your business - well, probably not. I think it is easy to get caught up in family issues because we know that something is inheritantly wrong. But, I believe that unless it effects me, I'm not going to get involve. The only time I will say that I did step in on a situation like this is when I felt my sister and bil were taking financial advantage of my mom who had lost my dad just a couple of years prior and they were really taking monies that my mom should not have been giving.
But, I felt like I had to to protect her.
|Sat, 09-08-2012 - 7:58pm
I think people run their lives in many different ways because it's what seems right to them. While it might not be "normal" looking at it from one perspective, from their perspective or for their reasons it might be perfectly normal.
I'm curious...as long as it's not YOU who are supporting them they why do you care?
|Sat, 09-08-2012 - 4:43pm
We'll celebrate my father's 80th b.d. in 2 weeks.
I don't think either of my parents regret giving me the best they could afford in school. I'm giving right back to them now. Not money, they have their own.
They spent more money on my education than the other 4 kids (only cause I was the one that kept going, 2 dropped out, etc.). And guess who is the only one still around? Oh wait, one's in rehab.... let's hope it works this time.
Sorry for the rant. Sheesh. Apparently I have some pent-up issues, lol!
Do you want to tell us some more specifics? I'd love to hear your story.

Intuit Sells FundWare
Intuit Sells FundWare
MOUNTAIN VIEW, (Calif.) — Intuit Inc. has reached an agreement to sell its Intuit Public Sector Solutions (IPSS) division to San Diego-based Kintera for an estimated $11 million in cash. The agreement comes about three months after the tax and accounting software developer announced it was seeking to divest itself of its nonprofit-focused software development arm, formerly known as American Fundware, which is based in Greenwood Village, Colo. The sale is expected to close by January 31, 2005, pending shareholder and regulatory approvals.
Citing lack of sales growth since it acquired American Fundware in 2002, Intuit announced last summer that it would put the division up for sale. Intuit engaged the San Francisco-based merchant banker Seven Hills Partners to assist in the search for a suitor for IPSS.
Kintera announced that it plans to integrate FundWare into its Sphere platform, with an initial release due out in the first quarter of 2005. The company said that it plans to continue to enhance and support FundWare 7.30 for individual installations, as well as for Kintera's software as a service application. Sphere will continue to integrate with other accounting programs.

crazy crazy stuff
Yeah, I took the SAT 2's yesterday, so now that that topic is out of the way I think I can move on (everybody asks me how well i think I did, I'm avoiding the issue). Well, it's been weird, I had my Chem test somehow delayed by 3 days and it still blew. School is being a bastard. Marc said something about what if our lives were really like the way we daydream about our lives and such, and it made me realize how great it would all be. No school, just being around all my friends all the time, having fun and such, it'd be like a little slice of heaven (and if that's not what heaven is like then I'll just spend a long long time in purgatory before they send me to hell to be tortured by a demon who looks like greg hirshorn). So what's been going on with everybody? I GOT A MARRIAGE PROPOSAL! WOO HOO! I DONT KNOW WHETHER TO THINK IT'S COOL OR TO THINK IT'S SCARY ENOUGH FOR ME TO MOVE OUT OF THE STATE! My random commenters are kinda weird. I get the on who says she's the Queen of Chicago, the one who says my journal is cool and that I sound kind of hot, and the new one which says MARRY ME! Yeah, I'm confused yet oddly pleased that I have such a diverse (read:strange) crowd reading this....or looking at all the pictures I put up....either way it's good for the franchise ("Memoirs of an Idiot, The Shady Bacon Story" is hitting shelves next summer). But this is important---TO THE RANDOM COMMENTER/COMMENTERS: If you are the same person that wrote all three comments then let me know, and if I know you then please let me know, because I am paranoid and this all kinda gets that paranoia on overdirve, that and it would be cool to talk to you. So where was I......ah yes......getting nowhere fast...Anyways, on tuesday night my parents dragged my near lifeless carcass to a meeting for Notre Dame in Stamford and I saw one of my best friends from back in the day at elementary school, Tommy. Honestly, Tommy is the man, he was then, is now, and ever shall be. I was so damn happy to see Tommy, and he's interested in film for college stuff too, so that's even cooler. I'm gonna get in touch with him, it reminded me how much it sucks that I completely lost touch with all my old elementary school people. Then I saw Kaitlin, the girl I had a crush on in 6th grade and got her email, so maybe we'll talk, maybe we won't, whatever. Then at the SAT 2's [cringes in fear, cries about poor scores] I saw two more of my old elementary school friends, Nitesh and Nicole. Nitesh is awesome and he's two and a half geniuses, and Nicole was always really really cool, and it was always fun to chill with her and her brother Jonathan (who I haven't seen in far too long). All that made me feel happy to see them and then sad that I lost touch with all of them, because those were some awesome times, and then ahppy again that I still have as good friends now as I did back in the day....and then, with all of this running through my head, I failed all three of my SAT 2's, haha. I just talked to Chelle and said some funny stuff, which was good, I haven't talked to her in a while and we should all chill again sometime, cuz the last times with Family Guy and Rules Of Attraction were awesome...that, and Chelle has a sprained ankle, so I want to write something funny on her cast, or ankle bandage, or bag of ice, or whatever it is they give people with sprained ankles. Rachel has a broken/messed up wrist, feel better Rachel. I have become addicted to Monopoly. We all played Star Wars and Simpsons' Monopoly at Brew's this week and we've all gotten Monopoly fever...or as a disco guy would say it...MONOPOLY FEVAH!!!...and then he would dance the night away. Monopoly....so simple...so fun...so illegal in the real world...i love it with all my heart (except the last little bit of my heart which is reserved for soda....i love you soda...). yeah, Shady Bacon is over Amanda everyone, though there was never really anything there to begin with and it's much better this way, she's cool and one groovy girl, but whatever, it wasn't in the cards and I have a good life (though there's a lot of shit trying to change that). I saw Lost in Translation with GB yesterday and it is so amazing. See it now, it is such an amazing movie and it's slow as hell and kinda boring at times but you won't regret seeing it because you will love it more every second after the credits roll, Bill Murray and Scarlet Johanssen are amazing and play so well off eachother, Scarlet Johanssen is my celebrity crush of the moment (sorry Alison Lohman). It's such a good movie. That, the new Nintendom commercial with the superhuman Japanese kids (one of my all time favorite commercials), and the bits of Tokyo you see in Battle Royale all make me want to go to Tokyo right now and bring al of my friends with me. Halloween was pretty fun. Andymac and myself dressed up as Jules and Vincent from Pulp Fiction and it rocked. Andy brouight the house down with his skit, he made it amazing, I just stod there quiet, looking like Vincent Vega (apparently with the mullet wig the resemblance is decent) and tried not to laugh because Andy was hilarious. Much thanks to Andy for making me have a memorable halloween costume/experience. Scary Movie 3, although very funny at parts, kinda sucks, don't see it, SEE LOST IN TRANSLATION! My athsma has sucked lately, anyone have lungs they're willing to spare? Please? Legion of Superheroes #25 was awesome on a cosmic scale, it is such a great issue that is setting up what I can already tell will be an epic comic book story. Matrix Revolutions is in less than a week.....OH MY GOD!....I can't wait any longer....AAAHHH!!! I am tired and I must leave. This week: college apps for U of Michgan, UCLA, and Penn State, writing my resume for Sooracco, 2 tests, The Fantasticks, and the Matrix Revolutions, it will be insane, but i think I'll be smiling at the end of the week. Ta ta everyone!--The Shady Bacon

Elven languageTalk101
this wiki
Redirected from Elven Language
The Elven language, or "Elvish",[1] was largely lost when Elvhenan fell to the Tevinter Imperium and its people were enslaved around two millennia before the Dragon Age. When the elves settled their second homeland, the Dales, they aimed to restore their lost language and lore, but the Dales fell after an Exalted March declared by the Chantry in the early Glory Age. The Elvish of the Dragon Age is thus a fragmented remnant, a few words that are thrown into conversation rather than a working language used to conduct everyday life. The Dalish Elves, self-appointed custodians of the elven language and lore, use more Elvish than their City Elf brethren. Living among humans, the City Elves now retain only a few old Elvish words whose origin is almost forgotten, such as "shem" - derived from "shemlen", meaning "quickling", or "quick children" the old Elvish term for humans - and "hahren" - the leader of an Alienage, meaning "elder" in Elvish.
With the release of Dragon Age II, and Merrill's speech patterns, it has been determined that pronouns most likely carry an implied possessive. What this means for translation is that words like "ma" and "ar" can carry a "have" with them - "you have", "I have" - without actually needing to add in the "have" as a separate word.
According to David Gaider, a differentiating factor between Elvish and other languages in Thedas--particularly as regards aspects like names--is the avoidance of hard consonants.[2]
Written Elvish Edit
The clan Keepers are the only ones who know the secret of writing Elven Language.[3] The spelling system for Elvish contains an apostrophe to mark register tone, not to mark stress or to decorate text as per the usual usage of the apostrophe. Also indicates contraction points between two full words that cannot be reduced by adjoining letters.
Many of the words in the following list are extrapolations and deconstructions of words found in the game, done by parsing the order of meanings versus given words and comparisons of fragments to the meanings given.
Canon: Elvish Phrases Edit
- Andaran atish'an (ahn-DAHR-ahn ah-TEESH-ahn): Enter this place in peace. A formal elven greeting. Literally: "I dwell in this place, a place of peace."
- Aneth ara (AH-neth AH-rah): A sociable or friendly greeting, more commonly used among the Dalish themselves rather than with outsiders. Literally: "My safe place".
- Ar lasa mala revas (ahr LAH-sah mah-lah ray-VAS): "You are free."[4]
- Arlathan (ahr-LATH-ahn): The major city of Elvhenan, original homeland of the elves, from the phrase "ar lath'an" meaning "I love the place". Alternatively, it could mean "place of meeting" from "arlath" meaning "meeting" as in "arlathvehn", and "an" meaning "place".
- Dareth shiral (da-RETH shee-RAL): Often said by Lanaya in the Dalish Camp. Used as a "farewell" it means, "safe journey".
- Dirthara ma (dehr-THAH-rah MAH): "May you learn." Used as a curse. [6]
- Elvhenan (EL-vehn-ahn): Place of our people. The name of the elven civilization before the arrival of humans in Thedas.[7] Also could be translated as: "Our hearts".
- Era seranna ma (EH-rah SEHR-ah-nah MAH): "Excuse me," as in after a sneeze or belch; this phrase may be differently conjugated depending on the speaker[8]
- Fen'Harel enansal (fenn-HARR-ell EHN-ah-sahl): The Dread Wolf's blessing. The password to activate eluvians.
- Ma serannas (ma SEHR-ahn-ahs): My thanks (Thank you.).
- "Mamae? Mamae na mara san...": Spoken by the ghostly boy. "Mamae" probably means "mommy" or "momma"
- "Viran se lan'aan? Ir annala for ros... Nae! Ga rahn s'dael! Ga rahn! Ir emah'la shal! Ir emah'la shal!": Spoken by the ghostly elven mother in the crypt where you get the Juggernaut armour. See "Deconstructing Elvish", below, for details on both ghosts' possible meanings.
- Ir abelas, ma vhenan:(eer-ah-be-las ma ve-nan): "I am filled with sorrow for your loss, my heart."
The Elvish Eulogy Edit

From in-game explanation, plus the fact that elves can no longer undergo the Uthenera, since they are no longer immortal, it seems this is a song used to mourn the dead now.)
Suledin (Endure) an Elven Song Edit
The elven song Suledin is played during the dungeon escape portion of the Leliana's Song DLC. The song is about enduring and emerging from sorrow, tied to the elves' loss of their ancient lands. It is adapted to personal struggles, as well.[9]
Melava inan enansal
Time was once a blessing
mee-LAH-vah-ih-nawn ehn-AH-sahl
Translator's Note: This has got to be a loose translation, at best. For instance, we know "lath" means "love", and yet "lath aravel ena" is translated as "and the path will emerge".
I Am the One Edit
Played at the end credits of Dragon Age: Origins and included in the soundtrack, 'I Am the One' features elvish lyrics written by Inon Zur. A translation for the song has been provided on the Dragon Age: Inquisition soundtrack.

Deconstructing Elvish Edit
Many words of Elvish are made up of contractions of smaller words. For instance, "Arlathan" means, "this place that I love". Deconstructing it, we arrive at Ar: I or me; Lath: love; and An: place. We know that this is correct, because: "lath" is used later in the eulogy poem to mean "love"; "an" is seen as a suffix in the word "Elvhenan", meaning "the place of our people", which is a direct extension of "Elvhen", meaning "our people". By elimination, "Ar" becomes the personal pronoun. In the same way, many of the other words we see can be deconstructed into their individual components.
Examples Edit
- "Mamae? Mamae na mara san...": The panicked phrases of a lost child. We already know "mamae" means "mother", and "na" is "your". "Mara" and "san" are a different matter. "Ma" (you) and "ar" (i, me) don't give us much clue. "San" looks like a contraction of "sa" and "an", so, one place. Since the boy seems to be in a panic, and we've already surmised he's looking for her, it's reasonable to assume that this is the gist of his statement, as well. So, we have "Mother your [mara] one place...", which we can then parse "mara" as "i can't find" or "where is". So, a reasonable translation would be, "Mama, I can't find you..." or "Mama, where is the place..."
- "Viran se lan'aan? Ir annala for ros... Nae! Ga rahn s'dael! Ga rahn! Ir emah'la shal! Ir emah'la shal!": These sentences are spoken by the ghostly elven mother in the crypt where you get the Juggernaut armour. Best guess at translation: "How did you people find the path to this place? This place has been lost for centuries. No! Get away from our tree! Get away! You are desecrating my grave! You are desecrating my grave!"
- "Viran se lan'aan?": We know that "vir" and "an" mean "the path" and "this place", respectively, so we have "the path to this place". If we assume that "se" is a pronoun (since "lan'aan" is a bit long for that), then, going off of "sa" as "one" and "-en" as a plural, we could extrapolate "se" as possibly a plural "you". In that case, since it is a question, we could assume she is asking "How did you people find the path to this place?", since that is a reasonable thing to be asking. Then, "lan'aan" would mean "how to find".
- "Nae! Ga rahn s'dael! Ga rahn!": This is a very difficult part, because there's so little to go on. "Nae" might be "no", but "na" means "your". There is no precedent for "ga rahn", but "s'dael" could be broken down as: "sa" - one; "adahl" - tree; and "el" - our. Taking that on faith, the sentence might read something like, "No! Get away from our tree! Get away!"
- "Ir annala for ros...": We know that "ir" means "very", and "annar" is "years", so it is reasonable to assume that "annala" has to do with a measurement of time in years. Perhaps it means "centuries". So, it begins with "A very many years or centuries", and then "for ros" has no precedent. Taking it together with the last line, it is highly probable that it means "This place has been lost for very many centuries."
- "Ir emah'la shal!": "ir" (very). Deconstructing "emah'la": "emma" (my); "alas" (dirt, earth); "halam" (ending); "shiral" (journey) - all of these words contain elements similar to this compound word. As an educated guess, I'm thinking it means "the ground of my end", or, more loosely, "my grave". So, "My grave is very..." something. Perhaps "shal" means sacred, or desecrated. So, loosely, "You are desecrating my grave!"
- "Dar'Misu; Dar'Misaan": "Dar" means "to be", and they both have "mi" in common, so it is possible that "mi" is "blade", and we know that "su" means "happen", and "u" means "alone". So, "dar'misu" could translate, roughly, to "this blade acts alone" or "this blade happens". "Sa" is "one" and "an" is "place". Best guess: Dar'Misu: "to be a blade that acts alone" - daggers being the weapon of choice for rogues; Dar'Misaan: "to be a blade of one place" - long swords being the weapon of choice for a sword-and-shield defender.

Services were held in this old school house until 1917 when a framed building (pictured) was built on the lot given by Elias Edwards which was located on Highway 211, between the town of Bladenboro and the cotton mill village. A brick building replaced the original structure. The church had 152 members in 1961.

After the Storm

How you can help victims of Hurricane Irene
[4]Vermont RVers are soliciting public assistance for an RV campground devastated by Hurricane Irene. Residents are asking people to show support for Abel Mountain Campground [5] in Braintree, Vermont, by volunteering to help clean up the property and sending letters to state officials. Without assistance, the campground will close its doors.
Here's a sample letter and links to Vermont's governor and U.S and state representatives and senators.
Sample Letter
I'm writing to express my concern about the welfare of a Vermont family, Paul and Karen Rea. Paul and Karen own Abel Mountain Campground, an RV park in Braintree. The campground was devastated by the flooding caused by Hurricane Irene. Without financial help, the Reas won't be able to reopen this campground.
Abel Mountain Campground caters to RVing families, and every aspect of the campground is run by the Rea family. Karen manages the business and organizes activities. Paul updates and maintains the campground. And the children perform many tasks on the property.
This campground is Paul and Karen's livelihood. There was no insurance they could have purchased that would have covered them in a disaster like what they've experienced. Without assistance, not only will Paul and Karen lose all that they've worked so hard to acquire, but many RVing families will lose a favorite camping destination.

It was rainy and chilly in Manhattan this past Saturday, the perfect backdrop for going to see a movie as intense as Werner Herzog's 1997 documentary Little Dieter Needs to Fly. It's a must for those of you who haven't seen it. The doc follows Dieter Dengler, a US Navy pilot who was taken prisoner after his plane was shot down in Laos during the Vietnam War. His captors torture him and other prisoners, and when he and a comrade finally escape, they must endure the wrath of the jungle.
As part of a three-week Herzog retrospective, the director himself made an appearance to discuss the making of Dieter and its basis for Rescue Dawn, his upcoming Vietnam War POW drama starring Christian Bale (pictured, right) and Steve Zahn (left). Herzog talked about how difficult it was to get Dieter to be naturally forthcoming with specific details and metaphors Herzog could use to describe the scope of what he went through to survive. In one of the doc's opening sequences, for example, Dieter walks into his present home and shows us several paintings of open doors adorning his wall. When first asked about their significance, says Herzog, he said that they were cheap, "10 bucks," and he just liked them. But when pressed further, Dieter noted they represented a luxury he didn't have while in captivity: being able to open and close a door. "I had to force him into a narrative discipline," said Herzog, "because it took him 45 minutes to tell a story."
About a decade ago, EW named Herzog the 35th greatest director of alltime, and not for nothing. He's a master storyteller (albeit a tadself-involved), which explains why Rescue Dawn has always been foremost in Herzog's mind. Dawn was a way to use creative license to fill in any of the holes left behind in the documentary. "Rescue Dawnwas meant to go into the deeper core of Dieter Dengler," says Herzog.In the doc, for instance, one wonders how Dieter (who died five yearsago after a bout with Lou Gehrig's disease) has carried on all of theseyears with such humility and a great sense of humor with regard to hisVietnam War days. And you never get a sense for what Dieter's personaldemons might have been at the time. "Little Dieter was alwaysunfinished business," explains Herzog. "Dieter didn't want to sayanything negative about the other prisoners… though he admitted thathe could have strangled them had he not been handcuffed."
The point is, you may have a personal debate of your own: decidingwhether to see the documentary before the feature (a la Stacy Peralta'sDogtown and Z-Boys and Lords of Dogtown) or vice versa. Watching the Dawn trailernow after having seen the doc makes it so much more poignant. I promisemy endorsement won't provoke the same reaction that one ZDF exec (oneof the film's financiers) had when he first saw a version of Dieterin the editing room. According to Herzog, he said: "This film is sobad, I need to vomit now." On second thought, the part about eatingrats to survive might make you nauseated.

CORPUS CHRISTI - CCISD has finalized the boundaries for the new Veterans Memorial High School, and the guidelines to determine who will attend the campus when it opens in fall of 2015.
The boundaries are primarily designed to both relieve overcrowding at Carroll and King, but also to leave room for a lot of growth happening on the far south end of town.
You are zoned to Veterans Memorial High School if:
-you live south of Cedar Pass/Sun Valley
-you live south of Saratoga and east of Staples
-you live south of Brooke, east of Rodd Field
The other question, how to fill the campus, was the bigger issue up for discussion Monday night.
Several trustees expressed concern that when the school opens, the enrollment will be around 850, while the capacity of the campus is around 2400.
But district officials explained this was the only way to open the campus without forcing juniors and seniors to transfer, and without adjusting the boundaries several times in the first few years after it opens.
"I certainly understand the sensitivity," said Debbie Seeger, Director of Strategic Initiatives.
"We're building a new facility. Our hope is that by drawing the attendance zones so that there is room for that school to grow, we won't be moving them around. Moving high school attendance zones is rarely a good thing."
To help ease the "undercrowding" at Veterans, trustees selected an enrollment plan that essentially allows almost anyone to attend who wants to.
9th and 10th graders who are zoned to Veterans are required to attend when it opens.
Beyond that, any 9th, 10th, or 11th graders from any other campus will be allowed to transfer to Veterans, with almost no chance of being rejected.
"It's difficult to imagine a scenario where everybody who wanted to attend couldn't," said Seeger.
In addition to housing the agricultural sciences program, currently at Carroll, Veterans will also have its own signature program, that is still to be decided.
CCISD hopes that will help to lure as many students from across the district as possible, and make the most of its nearly $100 million investment.
Families who live in the new Veterans attendance zone will all receive letters in the next few weeks about the changes.
Transfer applications will be accepted very soon after school resumes this fall, to give the district time to prepare for the amount of 9th, 10th, and 11th graders planning to attend.

GI-oriented company Axcan Holdings to buy out specialty pharma Eurand for $583M
BRIDGEWATER, N.J.—Under a deal announced Dec. 1, Axcan Holdings Inc., a pharmaceutical company focused on the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, will acquire all the outstanding shares of Amsterdam, The Netherlands-based Eurand N.V., a global specialty pharmaceutical company, for $12 per share in cash. The fully diluted equity value of the transaction is approximately $583 million. Under the terms of the agreement, it is anticipated that a wholly-owned subsidiary of Axcan will shortly commence a tender offer for all of the outstanding shares of Eurand.
The independent directors of Eurand, composed entirely of non-management, non-majority-shareholder directors, acting on behalf of the Eurand board of directors, have unanimously approved the acquisition agreement and recommend that Eurand shareholders tender their shares into the offer. The transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2011.
"We are excited about the significant benefits this transaction delivers to stockholders, employees and customers of both organization," says Dr. Frank Verwiel, president and CEO of Axcan, who says the combined company will have an enhanced presence in the specialty pharmaceuticals sector. "Through combining the organizations, we look to create a new organization with an enhanced product portfolio, broader geographic reach, a robust research and development pipeline, innovative pharmaceutical development and manufacturing platforms, and a world-class sales force."
"The last several years have seen Eurand evolve from being a license and development, drug formulation company into a fully integrated, specialty pharmaceutical business with the development and launch of Zenpep," says Gearoid Faherty, chairman and CEO of Eurand, referring to the company's drug for treating pancreatic insufficiency due to cystic fibrosis or other conditions, which was approved in August 2009. "I am very proud of the achievements of the Eurand team and this transaction shows the attractiveness of the business that we have created."
However, "After an extended auction process, and in conjunction with its independent financial and legal advisors, the Board of Directors has concluded that this agreement is in the best interests of our shareholders and other stakeholders," adds Angelo C. Malahias, chairman of Eurand's special committee consisting of the independent directors.
Faherty will remain chairman and CEO of Eurand through the end of 2010. At that time, John J. Fraher, currently chief commercial officer of Eurand, will become CEO and Malahias will become non-executive chairman.
The transaction is subject to a condition that a minimum of 80 percent of Eurand shares be tendered, as well as receipt of antitrust approval. To reach the 80 percent threshold, a majority of the shares held by shareholders other than Faherty and affiliates of Warburg Pincus will be required to be tendered. Affiliates of Warburg Pincus, which own approximately 55 percent of Eurand's outstanding shares in the aggregate, and Faherty, who owns approximately 3.7 percent of Eurand's outstanding shares in the aggregate, have entered into agreements pursuant to which they will tender their shares into the offer.
If the initial offering period of the tender offer is successfully completed, Axcan will provide for a subsequent offering period of at least 10 business days to allow shareholders to tender any shares not tendered during the initial offering period. Holders of Eurand shares not tendered during the offer or the subsequent offering period will receive $12 per share in cash, less applicable withholding taxes, for each untendered share, pursuant to a liquidating distribution or another transaction implemented by Eurand.
Eurand is a specialty pharmaceutical company that develops, manufactures and commercializes enhanced pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical products based on its proprietary pharmaceutical technologies. Including Zenpep, Eurand has had six products approved by the FDA since 2001 and has a pipeline of product candidates in development for itself and its collaboration partners. Its technology platforms include bioavailability enhancement of poorly soluble drugs, custom release profiles and taste-masking/orally disintegrating tablet.

It's day four of the MFT teasers and we have an amazing stamp set and coordinating Die-namcis to share with you today. The Thankful Leaves stamp set and Fall Leaves Die-namics are absolutely gorgeous! They are just perfect for all your fall themed projects!
For my project today, I created a thank you card and a wine bottle topper. I like to have a couple of these on hand at all times. It is great to be able to pick one out of the stash as I am dashing off to a friends place for dinner.
I must admit that the leaves did not turn out exactly as I had hoped for. I ran into a bit of an issue with my ink pads. I recently purchased the new Stampin' Up! Classic ink pads. While I love the coverage these ink pads provide, they are not exactly great for doing the rock and roll technique. Way to much ink all over the stamps and my fingers! It was a real mess! LOL
I used the Fall Leaves Die-namics to cut out the leaves in Natural card stock. I then went to town with the ink! I used More Mustard, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Cajun Craze and Chocolate Chip Classic Ink. I sponged the edges of the leaves with Adirondack Latte ink. Once I had the leaves stamped, I used the Paper Blossoms Tool Kit and the Paper Blossoms Craft Molding Matt to add some texture and dimension to the leaves. If you haven't picked up these two products yet, you really need to! They are fabulous!
I used Hot Fudge, Natural and Kraft for card stock. I stamped the sentiment with Chocolate Chip Classic ink and I finished the card with a Chocolate Chip button and some Hemp Cord.
I used the fabulous Let's Toast Die-namics to create the wine bottle tag. I used the Sweet Stack Labels Die-namics for the sentiment.
Here are the details about the upcoming release:
- You can attend the New Release Party on October 16 from 8-10 PM EST HERE in the MFT forum, where you can WIN PRIZES!
- The MFT release, including all new stamp sets and Die-namics, is on October 16 at 10 PM EST. You'll find all the newest products HERE at release time.

Fabrics Made of Food
In light of the German designer who is making clothes with fabric made from milk fibers, Cincy Chic brings you some of the best clothes made from things you can eat.
The fashion world is buzzing with the news that Anka Domaske, a German designer, has crafted a clothing line made of what our moms made sure we drank at the dinner table. The fabric has the feel of silk, and a dress requires only around a gallon and a half of milk, according to a story by National Public Radio.
The brand is called Qmilch - milch is the German for milk - and the website touts the product as "the world's first industrial-strength fiber that is manufactured using an environmentally friendly process without any chemicals."
So, what are the benefits of fabric made from milk protein? Well, first of all, the production is completely organic, has antibacterial properties and is hypoallergenic, according to Qmilch's website.
Those seem to be pretty compelling reasons to start wearing your milk, but what are some other food fabrics to try? Here are a few:

A Bench with hidden storage - saving something usefully repurposed I have to say I did try to sell it just the way it was (the easy way out). I don't want to say it but maybe he was right. Ok so that made me even more determined to figure it out. Now you start thinking about how well it was made and still strong today. So now ok if it's sturdy and clean what could we do with it.
It is the height of a chair (tad bit taller, but it will work). It is as long as a small sofa, and just about the same depth. Can you see where I am going with this?. It's clear now that for someone with not much space could easily use this as a bench next to a table, with hidden storage, and should they be in need of additional seating in the living room we made it possible to use it as a sofa or daybed as well. ....read more....
In 1884 the Manchester Children's Home (Webster House) was founded. The mission was to provide a safe home for children who were unable to live at home. The home was founded by local churches in the area who identified the need and took the necessary steps to create the home. The Amoskeag Mill Corporation then the biggest employer in Manchester partnered with the churches and provided the land for the home to be built on. This fine example of community partnering is what has allowed the children's home to flourish over the past 125 years. Webster House has been able to continue its mission of providing a healthy home for children because of the community's long standing willingness to help us out in good times and bad. The home is licensed by the State of New Hampshire and receives funds for services for the boys and girls that come to live at the home. Funding covers the basics, and that is where the community has stepped up to fill in the gap so the home can continue to provide the best possible services for children and families in need. I myself having lived there for several years know first hand what help they can be to a youth. I am currently on the board of directors as a way of paying it back. I want to thank all of the people that have donated to The Webster House on behalf of From Out Of The Woods Antique Center. If you are looking for more information on The Webster House (children's home ) please feel free to call for a brochure or a tour. 603-624-8668 The Webster House 135 Webster St Manchester N.H. 03104

Fantasia Barrino wants the world to know that she's finally taken the pain of her past the abusive boyfriend, the struggle with single motherhood, the destructive self-hatred and put it behind her. On the eve of the release of her buoyant, flirty sophomore album, Fantasia (out Dec. 12), this certainly seems like a good place to be. ''The drama is over for me,'' she declares. ''I'm avoiding it. And I wanted my music to represent that. I'm just ready to have a good time.''
She's ensconced in a hotel suite high above New York City's idyllic Union Square, the traffic below barely audible. She complains of feeling on the verge of illness, but like any good diva, Fantasia still manages to get the trappings just right. For starters, she conducts this entire interview from her bed, propped against a pile of plush white pillows. An impressive mound of Louis Vuitton luggage sits in the corner of the room. Her new companion, a 3-month-old bulldog named King, wiggles along the floor, chewing everything in sight. Fantasia clutches a tricolored track jacket, squeezes it to her chest like a security blanket, closes her eyes, and widens her mouth in a rictus of pleasure. ''I've got a [boy]friend, too!'' she swoons, explaining that she met a paramour while filming the video for her new single, ''Hood Boy.''
After a bleak spell in which the unwed single mother wondered if she'd ever get out of her High Point, N.C., hometown, things finally started to go Fantasia's way a couple of years ago. Her up-from-nothing backstory and raw, soaring voice touched fans of American Idol, which she won in May 2004. Later that year, her first album, Free Yourself, scored four Hot 100 singles, sold 1.7 million copies, and earned a quartet of Grammy nods. A 2005 memoir, Life Is Not a Fairy Tale, unexpectedly hit best-seller lists, and the TV-movie version with Fantasia in the starring role became the second-most-popular telecast in Lifetime's 22-year history.
It's been a dizzying, gratifying run. It's also been nonstop, and this morning, signs of exhaustion are visible. Her eyes struggle to stay alert. Her voice barely registers above a soft rasp. The spirited, hyper young country girl is starting to fold under the weight of a grueling schedule that's had her crisscrossing the country for weeks. More stressful for Fantasia, however, is the difficult, sometimes stormy relationship with her father that has again taken center stage thanks to a high-profile, $10 million libel lawsuit aimed at numerous passages in Fairy Tale, which he says are riddled with untruths about him. This could not have come at a more inopportune time. So shall we scratch all that stuff about letting go of the drama? The singer answers with a sigh: ''I'm always going through somethin'. It's tough for 22-year-old 'Tasia. Remember that.''
When she's not in bed, Fantasia is as fans of American Idol have long known one hell of a live performer. Last month, she wowed a small but enthusiastic crowd at New York's swanky Supper Club with a 45-minute set that featured new tracks and some hits from Free Yourself. When she strode out onto the stage wearing a sparkly gold minidress, kicked off her heels and went barefoot (it's already a trademark move), the crowd went from happily sated to completely hog-wild. By the time she broke into a medley of R&B classics like Aretha Franklin's ''Rock Steady,'' Rufus' ''Tell Me Something Good,'' and Prince's ''Purple Rain,'' the room had taken on the air of a tent revival. There were moments when Fantasia sang so urgently that it looked as if she might burst her spleen. When she finished, tears and sweat dotted her cheeks. While touring with Kanye West last year, she had performed this medley every night. ''People got so into it,'' she says. ''They would be in good spirits, moving and rocking.... I wanted my [new] music to feel like that. I wanted uplifting music.''
When Fantasia went into the studio last January to start her new album, she laid down that edict for an arsenal of producers and songwriters including Swizz Beatz, Diane Warren, Babyface, and Missy Elliott who crafted a collection of songs that exploit her 'round-the-way girl persona while also paying homage to her musical forebears. Capturing her personality was especially important given the ho-hum critical reaction to her solid if uncharacteristically boring debut album, which lacked a memorable hit that could have better distanced her from Idol. ''I didn't have enough songs on Free Yourself for the DJs,'' she says. ''All of the songs were slow ballads.'' Which explains why she's introducing Fantasia with the energetic ''Hood Boy,'' an adventurous funk stomp that samples a blast of horns from ''The Happening,'' a 1967 Supremes hit. ''We wanted to catch people off guard,'' says Larry Jackson, the senior vice president of A&R at RCA Music Group. ''Both of us went after material that was daring and bold and different.''
So much so that they even cut one intensely personal song that, upon close inspection, probably says more about where Fantasia is at these days than any of the others. It's a slower, emotional track called ''Solo (So Low)''; producer Harold Lilly and a partner wrote it after having a brief but personal conversation with the singer. '''Solo' is about how if it ain't one thing, it's another,'' Lilly says. ''It's like, 'I've got to go solo because you've taken me so low.' It's about standing on your own two feet.'' When he first presented it to her, ''it stopped her in her tracks. She said, 'I feel like this song is about my father.'''
Fantasia was 5 years old when Joseph Barrino first pushed her on stage to perform at weddings, funerals, and home gatherings both alone and with the clan's five-member gospel troupe, the Barrino Family. She was especially popular at the church where her mother, Diane, and grandmother, Addie Collins, were ministers. Eventually, though, the preacher's daughter grew bored and rebellious and says she ''went through a phase,'' dropping out of high school and getting pregnant by her then boyfriend when she was 17.
In her autobiography, Fantasia candidly discusses life as a hopeless single mother, says the relationship with the father of her daughter, Zion, 5, ended after he allegedly physically abused her, and reveals her past struggle with functional illiteracy. She also writes that her father sometimes had a violent temper, and that he pulled her away from school when she was young so that she could perform.
Joseph Barrino was not happy. In September, he filed a $10 million libel lawsuit against Fairy Tale's publisher, Simon & Schuster. He claims that Fantasia's grandmother, Collins, is the book's ghostwriter and charges that the aforementioned disclosures along with sections that touch on everything from alleged substance abuse in his family to ongoing financial struggles have damaged his reputation with his employer and in his community.
Joseph insists he has no direct beef with his daughter, and says that they still speak regularly. The lawsuit, he tells EW, is simply about ''clearing my family's good name.'' He also says that when he confronted his daughter about the disputed passages, ''she said to me, 'Daddy, I didn't write that.' She said that the publishers put that stuff in there without her knowledge.''
Fantasia and her mother (who is now divorced from Joseph) challenge these allegations. Both women say that Collins had no involvement in the writing process, and Fantasia denies telling her father that the publisher added particular passages. (Fairy Tale's editor declined to comment for this story, while a rep for Simon & Schuster would only say that the company's collaboration with Fantasia was ''a great experience.'') Fantasia is mystified by her dad's decision to sue: ''I don't know what his reasons are. I don't understand it.'' Says Diane, ''[Fantasia] came home and said, 'Mama, I feel like somebody put a knife in my back and twisted it.'''
Still, she's not ready to write him off altogether. ''My father brought a lot out of me that I didn't know I had,'' Fantasia says. ''After I won Idol and was on my own, I wasn't going to [him] for protection anymore. He wasn't helping me with my music or managing me, and he still wanted to be there. That's where all of the trouble started. All I can do is sit back and love him from a distance.''
Still propped up in her hotel-room bed, Fantasia may say she's not feeling well, but when Prince's ''Call My Name'' suddenly blares from her cell phone, she brightens and politely asks if she can answer it. Seems it's her special somebody on the line, since all other calls announce themselves with ''SexyBack.'' She tells her mystery man that she'll call him when she returns home to Charlotte where she owns a house in a matter of hours.
Barrino says she opted to stay near home after her big win to preserve her sanity, which was probably a good idea. For a time during the 2004 Idol tour, she began experiencing anxiety attacks, and a doctor prescribed Valium. She chose not to take it, but says she sympathizes with former Idol contestant Clay Aiken, who discussed a similar problem earlier this year. ''I know what Clay is talking about,'' she says. ''Everybody, everywhere you go, knows you. They want a piece of you. It's very tough.''
To avoid the loneliness of the road warrior's life, Barrino recently adopted King (her other dog, she says, is too ''uppity'' to go on tour, which must be why its name is Diva). And she stays tight with an inner circle of ''godly women'' Elliott, R&B singer Lil' Mo, and gospel star Coko whom she calls her closest friends in the industry.
Fantasia also heaps praise on ''my girl,'' fellow season 3 Idol competitor Jennifer Hudson though she reveals that when they first met, they ''bumped heads and had words.'' Coincidentally, they were both up for a starring role in the film Dreamgirls, a part that ultimately went to Hudson, who's already earning raves for her turn as Effie. ''I was a little hurt,'' Fantasia says of losing the part. ''I had stayed up late reading that script, trying to get Effie in my spirit. I worked so hard. But it wasn't for me. I remember calling Jennifer. She picked up the phone and I said, 'Heifer, you took my part!'''
But lest you think a new feud is brewing, Fantasia makes it clear that the insult was a joke, and says she plans to see the film ''I gotta take my grandmother'' when it's released. She'll have to make it quick: Four days after it hits theaters, Fantasia leaves for a five-week tour with singer (and Dreamgirls star) Jamie Foxx; in the summer, she'll likely embark on a high-profile trek with Alicia Keys, though details are still being hammered out.
Touring keeps Fantasia away from Zion (who stays with Diane), but it pays the bills, and she's determined to attack her busy new year on the road with gusto, even if and when the drama creeps back into her life. ''I'll tour before I do anything,'' she says. ''That's my happiest time. When I sing my songs especially 'Free Yourself' I can't even hear myself because the crowds take over. And being that I'm a voice for a lot of young people, knowing that they listen to me, I have to ask myself: Where do I go from here? I can't stay down, I can't stay hurt. It's time to pick myself up. That's where I am right now. I've freed myself.''

What is Prialt?
- Q: What is Prialt?
- A: Prialt (ziconotide) is a calcium channel blocker specific to neurons and is given as an intrathecal infusion. Prialt (ziconotide) is a pain reliever used to treat severe pain, spasticity, and spinal cord injury. Prialt (ziconotide) does carry a Black Box Warning for severe psychiatric symptoms and neurological impairment (e.g., hallucinations and decreased consciousness). Common side effects for Prialt (ziconotide) are dizziness, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, headache, diarrhea, abnormal walk, blurred or impaired vision, confusion, memory impairment, speech problems, anxiety, urinary retention, shortness of breath, light sensitivity, and ringing in the ears. This is not a complete list of the side effects associated with Prialt (ziconotide). For more specific information, consult with your doctor or pharmacist for guidance based on your health status and current medications, particularly before taking any action. When your doctor prescribes a new medication, be sure to discuss all your prescription and over-the-counter drugs, including dietary supplements, vitamins, botanicals, minerals, and herbals, as well as the foods you eat. Always keep a current list of the drugs and supplements you take and review it with your health care providers and your pharmacist. If possible, use one pharmacy for all your prescription medications and over-the-counter products.

My daughter's cat started losing its hair and became listless. The only change in the cat's routine was its food. My daughter couldn't find the quality brand she usually got.
Thank goodness we figured out what was going on. We had to drive to a nearby town to get the desired food but the cat recovered.

Hey ladies! I'll be joining the "2 under 2" early next year. I havent told my boss or anybody at work yet, and I'm wondering how long I can keep it a secret. Its very early on in this pregnancy, but I've heard that you tend to show sooner with your 2nd, 3rd (and so on) pregnancies. Is there any truth to this?
How much sooner did you start showing with your 2nd? Thanks Ladies
Blessed with our beautiful girl May 30/2012 - BFP June 20th/2013 - Naturally MC June 30th/13.

bookworm982:Honestly, I think it took me longer to show with #2. I know I was in normal clothes longer. That surprised me because I was only 5 months post-partum when I got pregnant again. I didn't bloat as much this time around, and my weight gain overall has been lower. When I compare pictures, I'm pretty certain that I was bigger with DD than I am now. I think each woman is different in this category...
This is exactly my experience. I expected to show earlier since I was 9 months post partum, but I didn't have a noticeable bump until 22-24 weeks, with dd I was easily showing by 16-18 weeks. I've also had a much smaller bump this pregnancy, these two girls have just carried very differently.
I found out I was pregnant when I was 4 months PP, so I still had about 5lbs to lose before hitting my pre-pregnancy weight.. I FELT like I showed way earlier.. definitely by 12 weeks.. I was wearing maternity clothes by 8 weeks, but again, probably due to still having a little bit of weight that I hadn't lost...
Looking at my weight distribution now at ~36w pregnant.. I feel like I look just as big as I did last time, but I've gained much less! Last pregnancy I gained almost 40lbs by the time I delivered (12lb of that was in the last 10 days due to pre-e and swelling though..). This time I've only gained ~16-17lbs. Even if you tack on the 5 I still had to go, I've still gained significantly less than I did last time.
