Celebrities Gather For A Zsa Zsa Gabor Christmas
"I think that it is wonderful that Prince Frédéric and Zsa Zsa Gabor are still putting on this holiday party. It has been a fixture of the Hollywood scene over many years and many in the community are very thankful for their hospitality. We also appreciate the work of them both to raise money for charities over the years", said West Hollywood entertainment advocate John Carvalho, speaking in front of a beautiful painting of the actress that towered over the dining room as if to remind guests of her presence.
Among Zsa Zsa Gabor's many films are the seven-time Academy Award nominated "Moulin Rouge" (1952; Directed by John Huston), where she starred opposite José Ferrer. Gabor's performance lit up the screen and the fabulous pageantry, art decoration, and rich color of the film won two of the Oscars that year. Moulin Rouge was also up for "Best Picture". Some of her other movies include "Lovely to Look At" (1952), "We're Not Married!" (1952), "Lili" (1953), "3 Ring Circus" (1954), "Death of a Scoundrel" (1956), "The Man Who Wouldn't Talk" (1958), "Pepe" (1960), "Jack of Diamonds" (1967), and the comedy "The Naked Gun 2½: The Smell of Fear" (1991).

Other Side of the Lens
By Cristina Wilson | Photography by Critsey Rowe Photography
Posted: Monday, Apr. 29, 2013
How does a wedding industry veteran plan her own wedding? With creative personalization and a down-to-earth approach. When Dawn McNally and Andy Castor prepared to form a new family together with Dawns two children, they knew they wanted an intimate affair with just the closest of friends and family. With a guest list of 25 and vendors that felt like family (and who were the only Charlotte-based guests to be seen!), they achieved their dream with an elegant ceremony and sit-down reception at Brakefield at Riverwalk.
Dawn and Andy had both been married before but knew they found their true match in each other. Everything meshed when Andy connected so strongly with her children. They even feel that theyve been an inspiration to others who are going through divorces and dont trust that they can still find the one. Ive had people tell me that we give them hope because theyre having a hard time dating or the kids arent accepting. They see how happy we are and how lucky we are to have found each other, says Dawn.
Beyond the celebration of their love, Dawn was able to empathize with her clients in a new way. I think it made me understand my brides a lot more. It made me understand the stress of it, says Dawn. Even when you keep it small and simple its the same amount of work.
Even with the stress, incorporating the entire family was what continues to resonate with the happy couple. Patrick [Maloy] incorporated all of us into the ceremony; it wasnt about a marriage of the two of us. Its a marriage of all of us, and it meant so much.Featured VendorsCake

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt
My name is Otto!
Facts about Otto
- Breed: Dachshund
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut
- Age: Senior
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Otto's Info...
I am already neutered, purebred, and up to date with shots.
Otto (ID#358800) and Ozzy (ID#358799) came to the shelter together. These nice senior dogs would like to go to a new home together if someone finds them a nice as we do! Otto is almost 7 years old and still likes to play with squeaky toys. Otto is a little smaller than Ozzy.
Other Pets at Santa Barbara County Animal Services- Santa Maria
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Otto, a Santa Maria Dachshund dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Dachshund for sale in Santa Maria, or seeking a Dachshund dog from a breeder in Santa Maria.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Santa Maria already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Santa Maria breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Dachshund breeders who help with Dachshund rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Santa Maria paves the way for another one to be saved.

For oodles of sing-along fun, these sites provide lyrics for all the classics (such as Twinkle, Twinkle or Muffin Man) as well as fun, new words for original piggy-back songs sung to familiar tunes.
Bookwakwala: Songs5 stars
These original animated music videos celebrate all sorts of common experiences, such as moving to a new neighborhood, making an echo with a friend, eating with chopsticks or trying new things. The tunes are catchy and the lyrics are easy to understand: great fun for sing-alongs at the computer. Be sure to explore the rest of the site, including the musical games, animations and stories.
Everything Preschool: Preschool Songs5 stars
Hundreds of song lyrics, both traditional and original, are categorized by topic, such as Farm Animal Songs, Sports Songs and even Popcorn Songs. Some of the lyrics are sung to well-known melodies, such as Old MacDonald, Pop Goes the Weasel or the Hokey Pokey. Others are lyrical finger plays without specific melodies. The rest of the site is chock full of preschool themes, lesson plans, crafts, and alphabet activities.
Mrs. Jones' Room: Sing-Along Songs5 stars
Mrs. Jones is a Pennsylvania kindergarten teacher with an amazing website. Her sing-along page starts with a list of recommended music sites, followed by a really long list of song lyrics. My favorites are the alphabet songs, with lyrics for all the letters as well as vowel and consonant sounds (consonant digraphs, long and short vowels, and consonant blends.) "Do you know the zipper man, the zipper man, the zipper man? Do you know the zipper man? He loves to zip and zip."
Preschool Express: Music and Rhyme Station4 stars
Most of the original rhyming lyrics at Preschool Express were penned by site publisher and author Jean Warren. "In her retirement, Jean has decided to give something back to the world by developing a totally FREE website for parents, teachers and grandparents of young children." The rhymes are sorted by season, along with a section for Anytime Songs that include Dinosaur Songs, Color Rhymes, and Birthday Songs. Here's one about a ladybug, sung to the tune of On Top of Old Smokey. "Out on the branch / A ladybug crawled. / She wasn't big / She was quite small."
Preschool Rock: Preschool Songs and Poems4 stars
Use the menu in the left-hand column to find original songs about holidays, animals, numbers and letters. The Classic Preschool category has a few "old standards rewritten with a modern twist," such as My Big Truck sung to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. "Rev Rev Vroom Vroom / My big truck. / Up on a hill or down in the muck. / Your big truck wheels / Spin round and round / I see them race across the ground."

Petit Four
Definition: Petit Four
by Food 16 Reactions 993 Shares Print
Petit Four
A small cake (or cookie) served at the end of a multi-course meal or elaborate buffet. They're usually about 1" square and traditionally come in two varieties: Secs (dry) and Glacé (iced). The dry kind include dainty cookies, meringues, macaroons and puff pastries. The iced include little cakes covered in fondant, small eclairs and tartlets.
Oh and my favorite part, the name "petit four" means "small oven" in French.

I'm going to disagree with you kiki - I had tons of fun making them and my kids helped too! We covered them not with fondant, but with a runny butter cream (place them on a rack over a cookie sheet and pour!) - it harden up a bit and they were great! My kids decorated them with candies- fun family project! (by family I'm included the hubby - he comes from a long line of catering and always seems to be able to help in a pinch!)
Leoschoice 7 years
In France, you can also have petits fours with the apperitif. In that case they are salted, like mini quiches, mini hot dogs. They can be a lot more elaborated like oyster candies, foie gras souffles etc. (though i never tryed to made some)
Food 7 years
I personally don't like them that much, mostly because I end up choosing the ones with the jam fillings (not a fan of the jam center). It's sort of like boxed chocolates, it depends on who makes them, what ingredients they use and what flavor you're getting.

All I can say is DON'T EVER TRY TO MAKE THE ICED KIND AT HOME. Seems like you'd figure this out on your own, but I was asked to make them by a family member and told that she made them all the time. Disaster in the kitchen, huge expense, overall failure. Always buy them. Always. Not worth the time, expense, and mess. Now they give me nightmares.

Hendon's first team were left embarrassed on Friday evening as they were beaten 10-7 by the clubs supporters team at Vale Farm.
The first team ran into a four goal lead, with Marc Kirby opening the scoring in the 3rd minute. Moments later Marc Leach doubled the lead, before James Parker got on the scoresheet in the 6th minute. Leach scored his second in the 9th minute, before the Supporters pulled a goal back through Nick McMullen.
Lubomir Guentchev restored the four goal advantage after a quarter of an hour, before Leach completed his hat-trick after 22 minutes. By this time Gary McCann had taken over in goal for the Supporters and his experience gave added stability to their defence.
Before half-time (the game was played 30 minutes each way) both Andrew Vincent and Paul Butler found the back of the net to make the scoreline 6-3 to the first team at the break.
The Supporters took control of the game in the second half. In the 37th minute they were awarded a penalty when Parker handled the ball, and six year old striker Joe-Ollie McCann stepped up and sent Freddie Hyatt the wrong way to score. Three minutes later Jake Osborn scored his first goal of the game, and he added to that just two minutes later.
In the 50th minute Joe-Ollie McCann ran through numerous first team challenges and rolled the ball home from 10 yards, before Jake Osborn completed his hat-trick just a minute later. Under 15 goalkeeper Charlie Osborn, playing in an unfamiliar midfield role, scored shortly afterwards, before eleven year old Tommy Hyatt scored a late consolation from the penalty spot for the first team to complete the scoring for the evening.

Egypt's Constitutional Referendum Results
Dec 25 2012
Based on numbers reported by Egyptian media outlets, below is a summary of the constitutional referendum vote results broken down by governorate.
What do these numbers tell us?
- In two stages of voting, average turnout across governorates was 30%, with Egyptians abroad participation being the most notable outlier with a 41% turnout rate.
- The only three governorates where the majority of voters elected to reject the draft constitution are Cairo, Gharbiyya, and Menofia.
What do these numbers not tell us?
- Given that the vast majority of eligible voters (68% or 33,855,564) did not participate in the referendum, we can neither conclude that the majority of the eligible voting population supports the constitution, nor can we conclude that a majority rejects it.
- Only 16,232,035 or 32% of eligible voters have reportedly cast a vote. It is, therefore, misleading to claim that the silence of the other 68% is reflective of support for one position or another.
What conclusions are impossible to draw from these numbers?
- The reasons behind the low turnout are many, not mutually exclusive, and unclear. Thus far, there has been no empirical evaluation of the possible links between voter abstention and lack of motivation, or the restriction that a voter can only vote in her assigned polling station—as opposed to the 19 March 2011 referendum, when Egyptians were allowed to vote wherever they pleased. It is unclear whether this restriction was enforced, and whether it was consistently respected.
- Attempting to establish relationships between governorate-level voting results and various demographic and social indicators, such as literacy rate, is misleading, because eligible voters in a given governorate may include individuals who reside in different governorates and whose demographics are not captured by governorate-level indicators. For instance, claiming that predominantly rural governorates support the constitution can be misleading if it turns out that registered voters in these supposedly rural regions include a large number of well-educated youth working in nearby urban centers.
- Commentators in social media have examined every possible correlation between [name your favorite social or demographic indicator] and governorate level voting outcomes. While drowning in interesting and seemingly revealing scatterplots and tables, it is easy to lose track of the fact that correlation is not causation. For example, given the data under consideration, the courageous inferences that commentators have been making with regards to the role of the rural/urban divide or illiteracy rates in driving voting behavior across governorates are anything but justified.

Equalities and Diversity
Bereavement Services aim to provide a quality and sensitive service in accordance with the needs and beliefs of the bereaved and visitors to our cemeteries and crematoria in an efficient and dignified manner.
Our service users can expect a caring service delivered without discrimination or unfairness. The cemetery and crematoria sites are strategically placed throughout the city and serve all areas of the community.
Facilities Available
Each of the cemeteries and crematoria offices have disabled access and the sites have toilet facilities for the disabled. A number of our sites have marked disabled car parking bays. Upon request grave plots may be available near to a path - please contact the relevant site office for further information.
The cemetery and crematoria chapels have an induction loop system installed and hymn books in braille are available. Wheelchairs are also available upon request. Religious or non religious services may be held in the chapels. Service information, service user questionnaires and memorialisation packs are available in various languages upon request.
To reflect the diverse ethnic and religious communities within the City of Birmingham burial sections have been set apart for individual religious groups at a number of our cemeteries including a burial section for the Chinese community at Quinton Cemetery, sections for the Orthodox churches at Sutton Newhall Cemetery and Muslim sections at Handsworth, Sutton Newhall and Kings Norton Cemetery.
Areas are also set aside for Church of England, Roman Catholic and Free Church faiths. Please click on the link to each cemetery for further information.
We have recently opened Primrose Meadow Woodland Burial Glade at Kings Norton Cemetery to facilitate the burial requirements of those who do not wish a traditional burial - preferring a more natural approach. There is also a facility to scatter cremated remains on one of four seasonal lawns in the glade. Please click on the link for more information.
During 2013 we introduced additional disabled Car Parking bays at Sutton Coldfield Crematorium and extended the floral tribute area to improve access for visitors. Resurfacing works were completed in Lodge Hill Crematoria to assist with access difficulties and phase II of the development of Kings Norton Cemetery was completed to provide additional burial facilities for all areas of the community. In addition Acorn Hollow Children's Memorial Garden was opened in Lodge Hill Cemetery Garden of Remembrance.
Equality Impact Assessments
The Place Directorate of which Bereavement Services is a part assesses the equality impacts of it's policies, programmes, projects and services in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Equalities and Human Rights Commission and the City Council policies and procedures.

Length: 14' 0" - Width: 23.00" - Starting at: $1229.00See More Details about this Kayak
My particular example had several manufacturing flaws. The rear bulkhead was not properly sealed and the rear hatch leaks badly when upside down. Other owners I have talked to did NOT have these issues.
I highly recommend it!
I have had the boat out in flat water streams and limited light surf and rock gardening (entry level stuff only) The primary stability is very high making it a good beginner kayak. Secondary stability is not bad, but to me, I could not reliably feel the "point of no return" and found myself rolling when aggressive edging. I think moving the seat back hurt the boats rolling behavior as I can not lay back flat on the deck, but it seems to be easy to snap the boat back under you.
In my opinion, this is a good general use kayak for a beginner that wants a boat they can grow with, learning new skills. It also seems to have the ability to turn and handle very well making it a good surf boat (I am still learning this skill).
The Alchemy is well built, has dry hatches, and is fairly light for a poly boat.
I'm not sure but the hull V and chines seem more pronounced on the small model, the secondary stability is superb and the kayak is very agile on edge, ride is slightly wetter on the small but you'd expect that, more than made up for by the sharper handling.
I found the large needed skeg in the wind where as the small still needs a bit for crosswinds but nothing like as much, maybe a quarter. Hull speed isn't bad but this kayak really comes into its own in tight spots like sea caves and narrow passageways etc, a great rockhopper! I've gone from proper sea kayaks to a Dagger Charleston flat water tourer, which was ok but this kayak fits my needs better than either, still small and agile like the Charleston but with proper sea kayak features and handling, highly recommended!
I will preface by saying that I really like this boat. The fit is great for me, and its wonderfully responsive. It has a fair amount of rocker and a harder chine for a poly boat, so the combination makes for very tight radius turning. Initial stability is solid, although I haven't tested the secondary. The seating system is pretty much identical to Wildy's backband Phase 3 - so its very adjustable and comfortable. Again, the 14.0S is very snug, but that's what I was looking for.
Overall, a very comfortable boat to be in, and very customizable. One ergonomic issue for me was that the seat seems somewhat far up the cockpit. Not enough to impact overall comfort, but it did make the day hatch placement enough of a stretch that I would not be going back there on the water. But then there's enough room behind the seat for dry bag storage, so its a wash so long as its secured (this pretty much echoes what previous reviewer's comments). I also agree that water does get in the coaming quite easily.
I did find that the boat weathercocks easily; perhaps due to the degree of rocker and a higher stern deck than some comparable boats. The skeg helps, but does slow down the boat noticeably. Storage is on the small side, but this is a 14' low volume boat, so I expected that. Since I also backpack, most of my equipment is light or ultralight anyway so I can easily fill the boat with enough equipment and water for an overnight or a light weekend. I would not expect to take the 14.0S on a trip longer than a weekend, unless you aren't taking any water.
In conclusion, I would recommend this boat to a smaller - medium paddler who likes a snug fit in a boat, and whose intention for it is day trips perhaps with some overnight excursions. Ideally the boat would be used in more calm weather conditions, and/or situations where maneuverability is more of a priority over tracking.
I have had the boat less than 30 hours, but I did get a chance to get it out on a pond a couple of hours back. Again, I wanted something that would do well in open water and handle choppy conditions well.
It turns out my first opportunity to paddle it was a perfect test - SSW winds at 20 mph gusting to 30 mph. The boat passed with flying colors - all I wanted! The skeg control is in a recessed slot just below the hip. Being recessed, there is no way to hit it accidentally. I was able to find a "sweet spot" where it would neither weather cock nor lee cock in those 20-30 mph winds.
Chop? What chop? There were 6-12" waves which would have shaken my kidneys loose in the Blackwater 115. I hardly noticed them while headed straight into them. (When they were side waves, I was glad for my skirt and PFD!)
Although just about everything on the seat adjusts, well, once you get that skirt fastened and are out on the pond, nothing adjusts. The cockpit is tight. Wonder which I would have bought had I sat in both the 14s and the somewhat wider 14l? Whatever, you don't sit in this boat, you wear it. However, this does give great control! Although there is a middle bulkhead with a day hatch, there is also a surprising amount of room behind the seat for stashing a dry bag.
Here are the few picky things I found. First, there are no drain channels for the coaming and the areas around the hatches, so water accumulates there. (There is also a 3-4" bowl, presumably for a compass mount. They should have simply left a flat area, but it doesn't hold that much water.) The cover on the day hatch is probably impossible to re-seat from within the cockpit. It's pretty difficult even when out of the boat and standing over it!
In summary, this is a very nice boat!

Crop diversification finds home for 'orphan crops'
March 3, 2014 4 Comments
The term 'orphan crops' refers to plant species and varieties that of recent decades have been ignored by governments, seed companies and scientists due to their limited importance in global markets. Instead, only a few major staples have been of interest. From fruits and vegetables to grains and nuts, many orphan crops are highly nutritious, resilient to climate extremes and are well adapted to marginal soils. They are therefore of great significance for food security and the generation of income to the world's poorest communities.

Q: We have a customer claiming a set-off against our freight invoice for storage charges incurred because the less-than-truckload carrier failed to pick up the freight on the requested date. The shipper did not pay for any guaranteed or time-exact service.
My contention is that the set-off is unlawful for two reasons: There is never a guarantee of pickup on an exact date in the LTL market/industry unless this service is specially requested and paid for; and we are a broker that is a third party to any claim the customer may have against the carrier.
What say you?
A: I say you're right on both counts. And there's still a third factor you haven't mentioned.
What your question amounts to can be broken down into two subparts. First, does the shipper have a valid claim at all? And second, against whom does it have such a claim? Let's get part two out of the way before we go back to part one.
As you say, in your capacity of broker, you aren't directly involved in any claim the shipper may have against the carrier. It's your bill against which the shipper is "setting off," not the carrier's. That's not a proper or legal use of this approach.
Let's move on to the shipper's claim against the carrier now. You're correct in your statement that a scheduled pickup date isn't enforceable against the carrier. That holds true not only in LTL trucking but also in all modes of transportation. The only exception will arise if the shipper asks (and pays) for guaranteed service, which you say didn't happen here.
Therefore, the shipper's claim isn't valid in the first place, giving it no justification to "set off" against anybody. But for argument's sake, let's suppose the shipper did pay for the guaranteed service and thus had a bona fide argument that the pickup should have been made on time. It still wouldn't have a valid claim.
There are two kinds of damages a shipper may incur from a carrier's failure to handle its shipment properly. One is direct, or "general," damages, which Black's Law Dictionary defines as "such as might accrue to any person similarly injured" — reduction in value of the goods because of loss or damage, that kind of thing. The other is "special," or "consequential," damages.
The latter are, according to Black's, "those which are the actual, but not the necessary, result of the injury complained of, and which in fact follow it as a natural and proximate consequence in a particular case, that is, by reason of special circumstances or conditions." And the extra storage charges the shipper says it incurred because of the carrier's tardiness clearly fall into that category.
Would every shipper incur such charges? Of course not. A shipper who was dispatching out of its own premises, for example, wouldn't pay an extra dime for the lateness. Indeed, many public warehouses would be prone to forgive charges based on the shipment sitting on its loading dock for another day. So the charges were peculiar to this shipper and this particular set of circumstances.
The rule is that "notice must be given (to the carrier) in order to recover special damages, or the evidence must show that the carrier had knowledge of the special circumstances, and this notice or knowledge must be at or before (the time that) the shipment is made"; M. P. R. R. v. S. L. Robinson Co., 65 S.W.2d 902.
As I explain in my Manager's Guide to Freight Loss and Damage Claims (Fort Valley, Va.: Loft Press, 3rd ed., 2003), "a carrier is entitled to have a realistic idea of the economic consequences should he lose, damage or delay freight tendered him for transportation." The carrier has (or should have) a pretty clear notion of what the freight's worth, which satisfies this test for general damages. But it isn't necessarily privy to any special circumstances that may result in extraordinary damages — such as the extra storage charges — in specific cases.
You give no hint that the shipper may have provided this advance notice to you or the carrier, and even if it had sprung for guaranteed service, that still wouldn't have satisfied the legal test. Accordingly, the shipper's late-pickup claim can't stand up.
All things considered, the shipper's feet are on a cloud here, not solid ground. It has no legal basis to sustain any set-off against the freight bill.

My parents raised us on the importance of a college education. In our house, it was not "if" you were going to college, but "what" college you were going attend. My father was the first in his family to get a college education and he expected nothing less for his three children.
And so we got our college degrees – each and every one of us. And I and my younger brother are raising our children to expect to go and graduate from college.
When I first started working with parents, I worked primarily with parents of young children who were interested in providing for their children's future college education. But I kept running into parents of high school students who were very concerned about how they were going to pay the high cost of college. Many of them were looking at taking money from their retirement plans, incurring additional debt, or suggesting their children consider "less expensive" colleges. After having to tell the parents of a high school senior that it was too late to save enough to pay for college, and seeing the disappointment on their faces, I decided to educate myself on the financial aid rules and regulations to see if "something" could be done. In doing the research, I realized that there is a big difference between getting into college and graduating from college – and the difference often is having the money necessary to complete a student's education.
But what turned the table for me, was her frustration that parents were not getting the information they needed to make better decisions about selecting and paying for college. Most parents focus on getting their kids into the right college academically and stop short determining how they are going to be able to afford the colleges that admit their child.
They rely on what they did when they were going to college, what the neighbor said about attending college, or books they read about applying to college and worst of all, what they hope will happen when they apply to colleges.
Good college planning information with a bias to college funding is out there. But it is scattered and you have to find it, process it and apply it to your situation. Our vision is to gather together and deliver quality targeted information and solutions related to college directly to parents and the students themselves.
I am a parent and committed advocate to families wanting to afford the colleges that admit their children through graduation. She is Certified Financial Planner® professional and a Certified College Planning Specialist – one of less than 500 people in the United States with that designation. In addition, she is the president of College Funding Resource which helps educate families on how to make college an affordable reality, without jeopardizing the family's retirement and other financial priorities.
Mrs. Gopaul was a guest speaker at Joseph Hurley's Savingforcollege.com 529 Boot Camp for Advisors, a presenter at the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, Inc Financial Planning Clinic, has been a guest on Point of View, Daily Connections, Protect Your American Dream and What's In Your Hand. She has contributed her views and articles that appeared in The Star-Ledger, Garden State Woman Magazine, The Bottom Line, MorningstarAdvisor.com and divorce360.com. Mrs. Gopaul is highly sought after and has spoken at: Anderson Consulting, Mitchell & Titus LLP, Department of Treasury – US Mint, New Jersey Association of Women Business Owners, Social Security Administration and many other organizations.

The Rest of the Team
Elah Fabria
My family really values education. I remember my parents telling me that the only thing they can leave me that no one can steal is an education. My family
consists of 6 members; this includes my father, mother, sister, my husband and my daughter and me. My parents really wanted to finish college but because
of hindrances like financial and family problems, they were not able to finish it. Despite of it, they always wanted me to finish my own journey of
education. But money has always been a problem for us. So I wasn't able to finish my own struggle for a degree. My younger sister is in the 7th
grade now and my daughter is in the 3rd grade. We were working hard for them to achieve what we haven't done. We want them to finish college and
have a good degree.
Even though I don't have a degree, I am still not giving up on educating myself every day. Learning for me is very important, as it is an everyday process
for me. No matter what happens, I will always strive hard so my daughter can finish her schooling and get what I've always wanted. And also I am not giving
up on a thought that maybe one day I will finish and have my own degree.
Jereco O. Paloma
Acquiring college education is something that's very important to me and my family. Personally, I finished college through full grant from a private college in the southern part of the country that specializes in medical degrees where I graduated with a degree in BS in Psychology.
Working with the College Funding Resource gives me the opportunity to help fellow students acquire good education in my own little ways.

Jet Escort
Less than a minute ago, outside my window, a plane departed Kuwait with a THREE jet escort. Who could that be?

Women in Pakistan
Last but not least from today's Kuwait Times are two articles from recent news in Pakistan, both involving women and the men who (seem to) own them:
Police Seek Pakistanis Pressing Woman to Hand Over Her Daughter
Karachi: Police are seeking ten men, including several tribal elders, accused of pressuring a Pakistani woman to hand over her teenage daughter as payment for a 16 year old poker debt, officials said yesterday.
In the latest case highlighting how conservative customs threaten women's rights in Pakistan, Nooran Umrani alleges that despite paying off her late husband's debt of 10,000 Pakistani rupees, she was threatened with harm if she failed to hand over her daughter, Rasheeda. The 17 year old was to be surrendered as a bride for the son of Lal Haider, the man who won the card game years before, Umrani told reporters . . . Police said yesterday that the mother and daughter were in their protection and that an investigation was opened against Haider, his son, and eight others. . .
Nooran said her husband was a gambler who ran up the debt at a poker game when Rasheeda was 1 year old. He promised Haider that he would get Rasheeda in lieu of payment when she grew up, Nooran said. . . .
President General Pervez Musharraf has vowed to give women more rights in line with his policy to project Pakistan as a moderate, progressive Islamic nation. In December, Musharraf signed into law a bill that makes it easier to prosecute rape cases in the courts, and the country's ruling party recently introduced a bill to outlaw forced marriages, including under tribal custom in which woman are married off in order to settle disputes.
My comment: The debt was paid. And what was the father thinking?? giving away his daughter to cover his debts? I can't wrap my mind around it.
Pakistani Sells Wife's Kidney to Buy Tractor
Karachi: Pakistani police have arrested two men after a village woman complained that her husband and relatives had sold one of her kidneys in order to buy a tractor, police said yesterday. Although her kidney had been removed 18 months earlier, the woman named Safia only learnt it was missing after seeking treatment for a urinary tract problem in January. "She had said she was three months pregnant when her husband, Shakeel Ahmed beat her and then took her to the hospital for treatment," said Mohammad Akram, duty officer at Noushera Jadeed police station in Punjab province. "But at the hospital, her husband, in connivance with three other people, sold her kidney to buy the tractor," he said. Unlike many other parts of the world, including neighboring India, there is no law in Pakistan banning the trade in organs. Poverty-ridden Pakistanis living in rural areas sell their kidneys to pay off debts or raise money for their families. Sick but wealthy Pakistanis, and foreigners from the Gulf, Britain and Canada flock to private hospitals in Pakistan for kidney transplants, made possible by these donors.
My comment: Seems his wife is just another revenue-raising resource to Shakeel Ahmed. If asked, she might have even agreed, but it would be nice to be asked, not to discover it 18 months later. The news article says he was arrested. I wonder if he committed a crime under Pakistani law?

On a Lighter Note: Exhibitionist Held
God bless the reporters of crime news in the Kuwait Times, in the midst of all that horror, they occasionally find an article that is almost purely hilarious:
Exhibitionist Held
Farwaniya police arrested an Arab expatriate after he put on an artificial male organ on his own to seduce female passers-by. The organ, which was too huge to be true, drew shocked gasps, not only from females but also from all around. The expat however shrank when he saw the police and was subdued after a hot chase.
My comment: *Dying laughing.* From beginning to end. The title. *Gasping for breath* he "shrank" *howling* and was subdued after a "hot" chase. Kill me now! This reporter is too funny!

Isn't Sodomy Considered Perversion?
Two articles from the Kuwait Times crime pages, but a daily occurrence:
February 27, 2007
Kuwaiti boy Sodomized
A Kuwaiti living in the Jaber Al-Ali area recently filed a complaint that a man offered his younger brother a lift while he was walking in the Mubarak Al-Kabeer area. He said the man then drove into the desert where he sodomized the boy after threatening him with a knife and also shot nude pictures of him.

Kuwait: Two bedoons travelling in a car in Riqqa spotten an eleven-year-old Kuwaiti boy standing in front of his house, and decided to kidnap and sodomize him. One of them alighted and tried to force the boy to get inside the car, but the boy started screaming; alerting other boys in the neighborhood who wrestled with the bedoons and managed to pin them down until the police arrived. However, the boy's father when informed on the situation along with his relatives rushed to the police station where they encountered the bedoons' relatives. Both groups were then involved in a scuffle. The boy's father then stabbed one of the bedoons several times. The victim had to be admitted to the intensive care unit at Adan hospital. Police arrested the boy's father and referred him to the relevant authorities.
My comment and question: In our holy book, Jesus says that the very worst punishment in the afterlife is for anyone who harms one of the little ones, one of the "innocents," who damages that innocence in any way. I am betting the Qu'ran says something similar. (I welcome your feedback on this, because I would like to know the sura'a.)
And aren't Bedoon's MORE religiously conservative than other Kuwaitis? How does this track?
In western culture, men who 'bugger' other men are considered less than manly. Is this not also true in Islam?
Is sodomy not considered a perversion in Islam?
What is the penalty for sodomy in Kuwait, and how is the penalty enforced?

Indian Maid "Falls" from House Roof
This is from yesterday's Kuwait Times (27 February 2007) and by the way, the Kuwait Times has a new, more attractive and easier to use web-page.
Hanan Al Saadoun, the reporter for this column, does a great job with crime reporting. Even when forced to be oblique, he gets the gist across.
Kuwait: Sabah Hospital investigators recently referred to the police the medical report of a woman who was admitted to the hospital with several injuries on her chin, jaw, lower lip, broken teeth and pelvic bone fractures. The lady was in a coma and was admitted to the intensive care unit of the hospital. They said after a while, the brother of her sponsor (who had reportedly been out of the country) brought in her passport, and informed the hospital that she was an Indian maid and had fallen from the roof of her sponsor's house. Further investigations have been stalled until after her recovery from the coma.
My comment: Injuries on her chin, jaw, lower lip, broken teeth . . . . and a "fall" from the roof? Too outrageous for words.

The first time I made this the filling was sour. So, I changed the filling to an 8oz. cream cheese, cut the lemon juice to a teaspoon and added 1/2 tsp vanilla. I have had many, many requests for this recipe.
MY GOD! This is to die for! So good, I wouldn't take any to work for the girls to try, I just emailed them the recipe...let them do it themselves! This is going to be a favorite in our home! :0) You'll love it!
this cake was heavenly... very nice texture, and the cream chees filling was great.. a couple of ideas.. double the amount of the filling, and add a little vanilla extract to it.. thanks for the recipe

Sorry to anyone who read TSI. First draft was terrible. Second drafting now.

Thanks for sharing Blade.
I need to throw this in the mix.
As Blade - I think - was trying to point out, hospital births with midwives are the "lowest" in risk not only because of the midwives skill level but also their proximity to emergancy care. The same midwife-group in a home setting could end-up with very different statistics should emergancy care for mother and child be 5 minutes away.
The idea is that if you are having an uncomplicated birth it doesn't really matter where you are.
However, should their be a complication or emergancy situation you and your child are statistically better off in a hospital which is equipped to handle such emergencies. (Also something important to consider when doing research early on).
The reason why the hospital-midwife statistics are lowest isn't necessarily that they are the "best" but because they only get the numbers for the uncomplicated hospital-births while high-risk pregnancies and complications are immediately transferred to a doctor. (So obviously the doctors numbers are skewed because they include almost all of the hospitals high-risk pregnancies).
Yes, these are American statistics but the general findings probably don't change much (at least for hospital-midwives vs hospital-doctors) in any country with a comparable medical-skill level). This has nothing to do with who the midwife is but purely what location the baby is born in. Saying that home-births in New Zealand or Australia are "safer" because it's the same midwife as in the hospital is fallacious. It may very well be the case that they are better trained and have higher professional requirements (which is always awesome), but you can't compare personal numbers to location numbers -> it's like comparing apples and celery.

Interesting post! I am not very good with all the numbers/statistics but reading your final statement helped keep me in the mind set of why I want to have my first child and all children probably in a hospital with the professionals. I know two people who had their first child at home and it totally freaks me out. Granite it went well for them. But my thoughts are, do they know what they are truly doing (midwives)? Do they have machines monitoring my baby, and what if something where to go wrong how much of a window period do you truly have to rush yourself and your baby to a hospital? Too many risky factors with a home birth to ever do it. Great article Blade!TTC Little Bub #1

Very important research! I am really glad someone did an extensive study on this. Personally, I've always felt much safer in a hospital than most people probably do (had a parent in healthcare) so I'm gratified to hear that the birth setting I've used is probably the safest.
My only question is, from my limited memory of stats, what about the sample size of 14,000 observations? Is that "large" enough to cause issues with p-values and goodness of fit?
I'm not super experienced with big data sets, just genuinely curious about how the info would be interpreted, since I will eventually be doing a research project for my masters.Mom to James Daniel (10) William Joseph (9), Elise Marie (7), and Zachary Allan (1)

Through the beautiful births of my two daughters, I have become passionate about helping women and their partners to have positive, satisfying birth experiences. I gave birth to my first daughter while working on my Master of Science degree. After the birth of my second daughter, I began to focus my efforts on becoming a doula. As such, I feel strongly about helping to educate women about their choices in labor and birth and to act as a non-judgmental advocate for the mother in support of her choices. At the same time, I am a strong advocate for mothers desiring a low intervention birth. These births can result in increased feelings of maternal satisfaction with the birthing process and increased well-being for the mother and for the baby by facilitating breastfeeding and family bonding.
Every birth is unique and the needs of a mother and her partner cannot always be predicted beforehand. I will use my knowledge, training, and compassion to help make the labor and birth process the best that it can. My calm demeanor and grounding presence help to create a peaceful environment for birth. I will provide reassurance and offer suggestions and assistance with comfort measures and positional changes to encourage safe and comfortable progression of labor.

There may also be things that a hotel can't provide. For example, if you need special equipment such as an air purifier, you will most likely need to bring it from home. While some hotels may be able to provide items such as a water bowl for service animals, it is usually a good idea to bring everything your animal needs with you. Ultimately, you are responsible for making sure you have what you need, so if you haven't asked for something specifically, don't assume the hotel will have it.
Renting a wheelchair or scooter
It is estimated on online forums that the average number of miles walked per day at Walt Disney World is 5–7. If you visit multiple Disney parks in a day, this could easily increase to 10 or more. The numbers are just as staggering at other major theme parks.
If you are at all unsure about your ability to walk this far — or to stand in line for possibly an hour or more — it is highly recommended that you rent a wheelchair or a mobility scooter. Scooters are more expensive, but they allow you to remain independent.
It is usually best to rent your wheelchair or scooter from an outside company (unless you will be bringing your own). This is generally less expensive than renting from a park each day, especially if you rent for a week or longer. It will also allow you to use the equipment when traveling to and from the park, as well as for other excursions such as shopping trips. A simple Internet search can help you find a place to rent a wheelchair or scooter; you can also ask the information desk at your hotel for assistance, preferably by phone ahead of time. Park-specific fan forums or disability-oriented message boards on the Internet may be able to provide advice on the best place to rent.
Theme park accessibility
If you use a wheelchair or scooter, you will find that major theme parks are among the best destinations in the world for accessibility. Virtually all attractions, shops, and entertainment venues are designed to provide equal accommodation to people who use chairs. The few exceptions to this trend were built well before the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, such as Walt Disney World's Swiss Family Treehouse. Most attractions have since been remodeled, however, and inaccessibility is quite rare.
The exact procedures for guests with disabilities and mobility impairment vary by location. For example, at Walt Disney World's It's a Small World, wheelchairs load from the ride exit, while mobile guests with disabilities join the regular line. At SeaWorld's Kraken coaster, all guests with visible disabilities are directed to enter through the ride exit.
It is important to know that some attractions will require you to transfer from your chair to the ride vehicle. Scooters and electric wheelchairs are generally not permitted on ride vehicles at all, although you may be given the option to transfer to a manual wheelchair. It is always a good idea to approach an employee at the front of each attraction to ask about specific procedures.
If you plan to use a scooter or electric wheelchair, bring the charger into the park with you. There are power outlets throughout most parks in both outdoor and indoor locations, which should let you top off the charge throughout the day as needed. Charging your scooter while dining can help ensure that it lasts the whole day.
Chair and scooter users should also consider bringing a cushion, since some of the pathways in parks are a bit bumpy. For example, at Universal Orlando, the streets of "San Francisco" are made of cobblestone. A rain poncho or other cover can help protect your chair in case of rain, although in an emergency a couple of empty shopping bags can work wonders!
Whether or not you use a chair, your first stop at each park you visit should be Guest Relations/Guest Services. Located at the front of the park, this one-stop service center can assist you with any special needs or requests. Stop by and describe your unique requirements to ensure that you receive appropriate accommodations throughout the park.
