The Family That Eats Together
This is why. Sometimes we get good, otherwise highly classified information from each other in this setting. I don't know what it is about shoving our faces full of food, but the brain relaxes and the stories start flowing. I won't get into the burps and other bodily sounds that I could use less of, but I do love finding out that 5 year old was singing "I Kissed a Girl" on the playground, or that husband played a funny fart joke on a V.P. at work, or that 10 year old has a crush on a *gasp* B-O-Y.
I also keep a camera handy. Why you ask? Well, I've picked up many gems. Here is one that I love dearly:
And here is the most recent one that will probably have me stripped of my Mother of the Year status almost immediately, but the joy I will get out of posting this publicly will easily outweigh any joy I'd get from a stupid award:
Yes, that's my daughter. I love her so. And I will never, ever doubt the value of the good old fashioned Family Dinner routine.

We are all over the family dinner thing...go us!

Loved the laughing video! And the hairy armpits too.
My mom was the dinner czar. Every night in the dining room, with a bunch of forks to confuse us. You're right though. You sure hear some good stuff.

It gets even more important as they get older. We get to hear about the drama in school, her favorite TV shows, what Nana is up to, etc... My favorite is "Oh ya, Nana and Papa called and they should be here in like a hour"
Your kids are funny, witty, people. It's going to be fun to watch them grow up.
Love, your sister

Even now that they're teens, my family has to eat dinner together every night. One can only be excused by a dispensation from the Pope. And since we're Jewish, I doubt that's likely to happen.

That is beyond funny. ROTFL.
Dinner together is so important. It sends a direct message: "You are so important that I must clear everything else out so that we can have this time together."

I think the importance of a family dinner.. even more so in this day and age.. is priceless. Your videos are a glance at the wonderful moments we can capture during this meal.
And NICE on Opals armpits. HaHaHa.

love the armpit hair. I would of loved to see the lead in to this.
We do Sunday with the whole family, lots of laughs and smiles seem to always come no matter what our troubles.

Archaeology at the Fugitive Slave Chapel Site
About Archaeology on the Fugitive Slave Chapel site
Archaeology was underway in May 2013 at the site of the Fugitive Slave Chapel. Timmins Martelle Heritage Consultants Inc. conducted the archaeology assessment with the help of public archaeology volunteers. TMHC has a passion for, and experience in early black history archaeology in Ontario and were considered a good fit for this local project.
Much of the material found on the site were from the 19th century, ranging from buttons and nails to animal bones, bottles, and ceramics.

1. "The environment is being harmed and destroyed, and it's important for people to care about and protect it."
2. "The environment is polluted and contaminated, and it's important for people to clean and purify it."
It turns out this is a really important question. Public opinion surveys show there are very large differences in partisans' attitudes toward climate change in the US. For example, a 2010 Pew Research Poll found that 82% of Democrats view global warming as a "very" or "somewhat serious" problem while 41% of Republicans (half the number) believe the same. There are a lot of divisive issues in American politics, but very few manifest such a large partisan divide. And these questions may be the key to understanding different people's beliefs about global warming.

Some people really need to write. It's their heartbeat. Creative process. Salvation of sorts. I'm not one of those people. At least I don't think I am. I totally get all the reasons I, as a business owner, should have a blog. Not only do I understand them, I PREACH them to every other business owner out there, touting their effectiveness for search engine rankings and content sharing. But when faced with a pile of work and an every-shortening stint at the computer, writing a new post doesn't "free" me, it gives me anxiety. It's that jittery feeling I talk to my illustrator (who actually does write) about, when you have 18 million things … [Read more...]

Affordable and good online printers
So you've already handed out a wad of cash for custom logos and print designs...which you can sorta look past, since it's a one-time investment. But now you not only need to order on the cheap, but be able to re-order easily, and have your designs look like masterpieces! As designers, we've worked with just about every type of print shop, from the local mom and pop to the mega online store. I'm offering up the few that we like best, but here are some things to remember while you search out your own solutions (or have the chance to work locally...our favorite). 1. Check thickness for paper products. I'm continually amazed by what someone … [Read more...]
Leveraging your profession for what matters
My husband and I always desired to grow our family through adoption, but browsing websites and crunching numbers left me overwhelmed and a little discouraged. Although I fully believe that God equips us for the things He calls us to, hard facts and dollar signs sometimes make the journey seem impossible to my finite mind. God is bigger, proved faithful, and blessed us with a sweet son in 2011 through domestic adoption. Becoming more involved in the adoption community, I quickly realized that no one has the money necessary to bring home a child. What a tragedy! I knew that we weren't ready for number two, but my care for orphans could … [Read more...]

The Anatomy of a WordPress Site
Navigating a Wordpress website design process can be mentally traumatizing, a total time suck, and completely confusing all rolled into one. Whether you're dreaming of a fresh start or a first launch, knowing the important working parts {and where they go} can turn confused into empowered! Let's take a look. Different styles for different brands: Why are you online? Do you sell? Products or Services? Are you a blogger? Knowing this first will help guide you to the right style Wordpress layout. Every site should have a well-place logo in the top (usually top-left) space. The tagline (hey here's what we do) should also be near the … [Read more...]
What is branding?
Hi friends! Popping in for a quick post today. It's difficult to run a business isn't it?! And to be responsible for social media, finances, emails, actually working, and...oh...blogging. I think if a blog post was as long as a tweet, I would be better at it! Do you feel the same??? So let's talk about one quick tip and all get back to living our entrepreneur dreams! What is branding? So many entrepreneurs think that branding is their logo design. In part it is, but it's WAY more than that! Branding involves deep exploration of your ideal client, not navy blue and pink color schemes. It's about the services you offer, the customer who … [Read more...]
DIY: Leather wrap bracelet
I love an afternoon of relaxing and enjoying friends. It's good for the soul to chat about great loves and difficult struggles, while soaking up the warm sun. It's even better when it includes crafting and yummy organic popsicles from the local stand! Kelli and I had such an afternoon yesterday. We made these colorful leather wrap bracelets, and I'm totally loving them. The turquoise leather is from Endless Leather, and I picked up the tags, hooks and charms at Hobby Lobby. You won't need everything pictured above for this project...I might have been really excited and grab-happy in the findings aisle...:) I've also included links at … [Read more...]
Happy Summer and Little Black Dresses
Hey blog friends! I know I always talk about the weather, but it's always right in front of me. Right now it's pouring rain outside my Starbucks window. My iced coffee and scone are delightful, and the summer has been grand. We recently spent wonderful family time in Virginia for a wedding, and have a few more on the calendar this fall. So instead of working, I'm shopping for dresses...I mean...why not?! I'm in love with the vintage clothing trends, aren't you? Not only because they're awesome, but also because they offer a little more modesty. I'm no fashionista, so these dresses always make for a pulled-together … [Read more...]

Coding for Healthcare Professionals
As the healthcare industry grows and changes, many healthcare professionals are exploring alternative career paths. In doing so, they often look for a new career where they can use their existing knowledge and build on it to create a new opportunity. The coding profession offers that kind of an opportunity for healthcare professionals.
The US Department of Labor projects that the coding profession will grow 21% over the next nine years, which is faster than the average for all occupations. The pending transition to ICD-10 coding is expected to further increase the need for qualified coders, as will the anticipated retirement of many among the current population of coders. Now is the perfect time to enter this field that offers a wide variety of opportunities for you to use what you already know!
If you are an experienced healthcare professional who has a strong background in anatomy and physiology, pathophysiology, pharmacology, laboratory and other diagnostic procedures, disease processes, surgery, the healthcare record's content and organization, documented related regulations and requirements, etc., this could be a great opportunity for you.
The program is particularly appropriate for medical transcriptionists, nurses, health information managers, medical assistants, and others seeking an alternative healthcare career where they can apply their knowledge and experience.
Coding for Healthcare Professionals is online and self-paced, so you can start at any time.

Holiday houseplants
(Dec 12, '14)
Given how many wonderful winter-blooming houseplants there are in the world, I find it sort of astonishing that poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima) is listed as the best selling houseplant in the US and Canada. But I suppose that fact must be chalked up to a couple things: Poinsettia are festive and fun. What's not to love about […]
Goodnight gardens
(Dec 05, '14)
After some festive weeks spent preparing for our Christmas display and this week's wreath workshops, it was pure pleasure to be out in the gardens again. Despite the chill that crept into fingers and toes. Earlier this fall we got a jump on what's commonly known as "putting the gardens to bed". — I must have already […]

No doubt about it, I have a lot to be thankful for. It might seem trivial compared to how grateful I am for things like my health and the amazing friends I've made here at Blithewold — and I also don't mean to gloat — but I thank my lucky stars just about every time I […]

There was a time when a man could sum up his job in a few words. A coal miner. A plumber. An electrician. A cabinet maker. A chef. A lumberjack. A baker. A blacksmith. A cooper. Until recently, a guy could even call himself a computer programmer and most of us knew what that meant.
Make money. No skills necessary.
Today, people get MBAs and find jobs working for companies that only insiders can understand truly what they do. A lot of data is exchanged with other companies who, in turn, sell that data to other companies who outsource their end of that data to middlemen in India who then somehow manage to massage it and most likely get someone from the original company to buy it. At least that's how I think it works. Is anything really produced? Does it matter?
On the plus side, most of these companies have really cool logos and techie-sounding portmanteau names.
Let's try one. I am going to start up a new company called CollaborLife (TM). As the name suggests, and our mission statement reflects,
We aim to expedite labor in a collaborative environment while enhancing the lives of not just our associates, but the life of our planet itself.So, if you have an MBA degree, I'd love to discuss our future together. Your responsibilities will include managing innovation-flow and strategizing problem-solving techniques for the 21st century. Salary starts at $95K.
I'm having a little fun with this, but it illustrates a disturbing trend. The world runs because of people who are actually able to produce things. Without skilled workers, eventually the -ahem- planet will grind to a halt.
Children are rarely taught basic skills needed to make simple repairs, or worse, the critical thinking needed to even comprehend how such tasks might be performed. Chances are, even their dads are unable to provide simple instruction anymore.
Shop class? What's that? Ewww...
For the most part, schools have eliminated vocational training and shop classes. Kids are unable to even try metalworking or wood shop to see if they might find it appealing. When was the last time you saw a kid working on a car in his driveway? Or even a bicycle for that matter?
All of this comes on the heels of the generally accepted belief that All Kids Must Go To University. It's drummed into every child from an early age. Parents panic if a child's math grade falls to a B.
By no means do I intend to disparage the value of education. It is always wise to pursue the highest goals possible, but education and schooling are two separate things. The mistake many "educators" fail to address is that a Ph.D is not a reasonable goal or even a desirable goal for many (very bright, I might add) kids.
And where does this leave them? Well, these kids used to have the option to learn a trade. One that might fit their interests and abilities perfectly. Sadly, without even the opportunity available, they are left with a high school diploma, which is worth the paper it's printed on. They have no university prospects and have had no chance to learn a meaningful trade. We are left with two classes of workers: unskilled laborers and pencil pushers with master degrees.
So when an assembly-line worker discovers a leak under his sink on a holiday weekend, he has to scramble to find a plumber. When the IT Tech breaks the leg of his dining room chair (no doubt from obesity due to lack of exercise) he is clueless to repair it. Likely he will just buy an entirely new dinette set.
The revenge of the tradesmen
Carpenters are often looked down upon by "educated" folk as unintelligent people who never studied in school. Plumbers have been the butt (pun intended) of many jokes. Auto mechanics are typically thought of as rip-off artists who always tack on extra charges to the customer. Nothing like the honorable laborers who toil away on Wall Street.
Teachers discourage learning trades. Parents are frightened of the prospect. Even recent U.S. presidents continually prattle on about learning nothing but "math and science, math and science, math and science" and getting a university degree. The elitist implication here is that people who choose different paths are worthless to society.
More and more, job openings for skilled tradesmen are going unfilled. The irony to this is that we are headed to a day when people who have manufacturing and repair skills are going to be some of our most sought-after citizens. We have always complained about the high cost of hiring a plumber. Well, imagine having to double that fee due to lack of people willing to get dirty. It may get to the point where a guy who can hang drywall and cut a decent cove moulding can demand fees as high as a stock broker. That will truly be the last laugh.
Mike Rowe addresses the senate
Mike Rowe is one of my favorite people. Sure he's a celebrity, but he understands this problem well. He recently addressed the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, hoping to enlighten them on the dearth of skilled labor. It's a spectacular speech. And your homework. Take a few moments to read it here or watch the video here:
I hope that some time in the future, adults will finally begin to allow kids to explore opportunities available to them and stop micro-managing their futures. We can certainly begin to present these options once again. It would also be nice if Dad would pick up a hammer once in a while rather than a phone to call for help. At the very least, kids might begin to understand that anything is possible if you learn to live to your own standards and not someone else's.

Breakfast was very good. Staff were polite. Beds very comfy.
Walls are paper thin so could hear everything in next room. We had a curry in pub that was more like a stew !
Very welcoming atmosphere, lovely clean rooms and good food.
Loved it there want to stay longer lovely people helpful x
Room was perfect for a family of 4, and decent adult bunk beds for teenagers. Pub was cosy and nice to see dogs allowed in, Beer very nice apparently! Food in restaurant a bit different which was nice. Our starters goats cheese and mushrooms with black pudding very good, also my husbands pork, and yummy homemade puddings.
It was very dark when walking out of back of the pub down quite steep stairs, some of the lights appeared not to be working. Vension casserole not tender enough.
The staff were extremely friendly and the Inn was SO child friendly (which was great as we had a 4 year old with us!). Food was delicious and the location was great as it was only approx 10 mins from Alton Towers which is why we were there - will definitely be staying at the Dog and Partridge in the future!
No comments to make as there was nothing we disliked!
Clean Friendly Staff always on hand to assist , Great Restaurant Location is less than 20 minutes from Alton Towers
Restaurant Prices higher than expected
Cosy bar area. Good location for Alton Towers. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Menu in restaurant looked very good,but all 8 meals in our group were very poor. Rooms were not that clean.cobwebs every where,although good bedding.
Great place to stay had a excellent stay
Staff were very friendly
My 2 daughters came back covered in bed bug bites (confirmed by gp) at which my youngest has had a bad reaction to. The full English breakfast didn't have any tomatoes or mushrooms and no choice between toast or friend bread. Will not be stopping there again or recommending it.
Great place for an overnight stay for a trip to Alton Towers, the staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms were clean and comfortable.
The food was a little overpriced but there was a great range.
Friendly staff Good menu Very good breakfast Modern dining room
Accommodation a bit dated
Fabulous choice for breakfast
Very friendly staff Excellent location for Alton Towers Family room with a door between adults and children. Set in beautiful countryside Parking next to accommodate Excelent food
Shower a bit fiddly and feeble Noisy children next door early in the morning.
Superbly welcoming staff. One of the most friendly places I have ever stayed. Great restaurant food and sensational breakfasts.
Accommodation a bit tired and dated, but more than compensated by staff and food.
We arrived to the hotel late on the 18th October after a full day at Alton towers. Staff were very polite and accommodating. We ordered room service which arrived quickly and was so tasty. Had a great nights sleep in one of the chalets. Arrived for breakfast the next morning, and were extremely surprised to find a huge selection of pastries, mueslis, yoghurts, fruits, fresh juice, toast croissant etc, all included and in addition to a full cooked breakfast of our choosing. Our stay was a delight and we hope to return again soon .
We were looking for somewhere to stay after a visit to Alton Towers with family and friends and came across the Dog and Partridge in. The staff couldnt do enough for us and brought us room service even after hours as our children had crashed out. The breakfast was amazing with so much choice and the kids play area great!
The only downside is that there is nothing for miles around this place so just come prepared with everything you need to hand!
Easy to find, large comfy room,plenty of parking
Food was excellent but the portions were massive so no room for pudding :(
Food choice is limited, staff are ok but not overly helpful, the bar is crowded with goods for sale. Woken at 5am by a cockerill
Food was excellent (if a little pricey). Fabulous breakfast buffet. Staff very attentive and helpful. Good quality beds and bedding. Very quiet.
The view
Asked for a cot on booking, had no cot. Towels had stains on them View was lovely but couldn't see through the windows as the glass was blown Cold and a little damp Bathroom needs updating
dog friendly and they would look after dog during the day.
access from road was difficult
Full English breakfast Staff friendliness
Hot water supply to our unit very poor. Shower stopped running when toilet flushed
lovely menu with delicious food room very comfortable ideal really all the staff were very helpful and kind.
Friendly staff, room and facilities fine, great venue for Alton towers, good meals , good breakfast. play area super for young kids , quiet
things and staff getting a little tired e.g. play area, could tell it was getting to the end of the Alton Towers season
Car next to room.Bath in bathroom.
Small TV up on wall.

don\'t force your god on us
i am a very proud and very patriotic veteran of the united states. i am not, however, a christian. christianity is forced on us in many ways. we are constantly told which god to honor and obey. first of all, a persons relationship with their \"god\" is a very personal one and should remain that way. secondly, if i do not ask you who your \"god\" is why do you insist on telling me keep \"god\" out of it. take responsability for your own actions and leave me out of it.

Inside Axel Vervoordt's Kanaal Complex
The dream of every design enthusiast is to make the pilgrimage to Antwerp, Belgium to visit Axel Vervoordt. One of the most inspirational designers of our time, Vervoordt combines past, present, and future to create a style that is elegant, eclectic, and timeless. This world-class "accessorator" has a sublime eye, focusing on the authenticity of antiques, art, objects, furniture, and textiles to curate perfectly harmonious environments. I was able to visit the Kanaal, a 19th-century complex of industrial spaces that are restored with a minimalist aesthetic, where visitors can experience his vision.
By Judi Roaman, theaccessorator.com
The Kanaal is a complex of warehouses and grain silos that have been stripped bare, exposing wooden boards, raw cement floors, and exposed brick walls.

Nigeria: Explosion In APC, As PDP Defectors Returns
by Tonye Max Cookey-Gam
FOLLOWING the change of leadership earlier this week, major political realignments have started favouring the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) which chieftains in Kaduna, who recently defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC), yesterday returned to the ruling party. Besides, other aggrieved PDP members who had hitherto left the party but did not
join any other party also returned, saying that they should be accepted as prodigal sons, who discovered that they took a wrong decision by leaving the party in the first instance.
Among the decampees who dumped the APC were Kennedy Musa, former Kaduna ANPP State Secretary, Peter A, former Kaduna ACN Secretary, Samaila Gandu (Sarkin Gandu Zaria), and former ACN House of Assembly aspirant, Mordecai Ibrahim.Others were Abdullahi Awo, Ahmed Chikaji, Bilkisu Zailani, Rebecca Nuhu, Inuwa Ahmad and Charles Taylor. Former senatorial aspirant, Alhaji Huseini Dembo, was also among the returnees and requested that he should be accepted back alongside his teeming followers.According to Dembo, who spoke on behalf of the decampees and returnees, they all decided to join or return to the PDP after discovering that APC cannot rival the ruling party in the state.
However, the Chairman of the Democratic People's Party (DPP), Gen. Jeremiah Useni, yesterday said the defection of one of their members in the House of Representatives, Suleiman Kwande, to APC does not have the blessing of the party.
According to him, the lawmaker, who defected on Tuesday on the floor of the House, acted contrary to the party's instruction to defect to the PDP. A letter to the Speaker, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, who presided over the session yesterday, partly read: "This is to inform you that he does not have my backing, he was directed to declare for the PDP.
"Also yesterday, the Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Legislative Budget and Research, Michael Opeyemi Bamidele, in a letter read on the floor by the Speaker, officially notified of his defection to the Labour Party (LP).Opeyemi, who was a member of the APC, had earlier relinquished his position as chairman of the Ekiti Caucus of the House in order to pursue his governorship ambition in the state.
In another development, the Deputy National Chairman of the APC (South-East), Senator Annie Okonkwo, was yesterday suspended from the party during its Interim National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting in Abuja.
According to a member of the NEC, Okonkwo was suspended on the allegation of anti-party activities, especially his role in the governorship election in Anambra State last year.
A six-man disciplinary committee, led by Senator Kabiru Gaya, with Dr. Muiz Banire as secretary, has been set up to investigate Okonkwo and report back within three weeks.
Okonkwo, who stepped down for Senator Chris Ngige ahead of the APC governorship primaries in Anambra last year with the offer to serve as the Director-General of Ngige Campaign Organisation, resigned from the position before the election, citing irreconcilable differences with Ngige.
Reacting to the suspension, Okonkwo said he did not know why people like to cause trouble for the party, saying: "It is not for me to say whether there is a script or it is a sign of creeping rascality. I am watching the whole thing"
Meanwhile, the in-fighting among the Ogun State APC continued yesterday as thugs invaded the Ota office of Senator Akin Odunsi and beat up his secretary, Miss Kemi Afolabi, while his administrative officer, Olasunkanmi Olayode, managed to escape. It was learnt that the hoodlums invaded the senator's office at No.87, Iganmode Road, Ota, yesterday morning and beat up Afolabi with sticks. An eyewitness said the thugs ransacked the office and damaged equipment and furniture, after which they fled.
Meanwhile, a meeting convened yesterday by the Awujale of Ijebuland, Oba Sikiru Adetona, to reconcile the APC feuding leaders was deadlocked.
Awujale, who is also the Chairman of Ogun State Council of Obas, held a secret meeting in his palace in Ijebu Ode with Governor Ibikunle Amosun and a national leader of the party, Chief Segun Osoba, over the crisis rocking the APC in the state.
A palace source, pleading anonymity, revealed that the monarch summoned the meeting with the two gladiators, whose supporters had been at loggerheads over the control of party machinery in the state, with a view to reconciling them, but the parties could not reach any settlement.
Sympathisers later rushed the injured Afolabi to a private hospital in Sango-Ota for treatment. The motive for the attack and the identity of the thugs were yet unknown.A statement by his Senior Legislative Aide noted that Afolabi was still receiving treatment at a private hospital in Ota, adding that the attack was politically motivated.The lawmaker further noted that the spate of violence against the National Assembly members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) across the state in recent times proved the desperation of some elements to intimidate people into undue acquiescence.While deploring "this barbaric descent to violence for political reasons," he implored APC members and the people of Ogun West to go about their normal duties and maintain calm, assuring that "the will of the people shall prevail.
"Reacting on the issue, however, the council boss, Mr. Rotimi Rahmon, urged a thorough investigation into the incident, saying: "It could be an orchestrated attack. We cannot continue to hide under the political situation to gain undue attention. I am demanding a complete investigation and whoever is caught should be made to face the law.
"The State Police Command's spokesman, Mr. Muyiwa Adejobi, who confirmed the incident, disclosed that the Police Commissioner, Mr. Ikemefuna Okoye, had ordered a full-scale investigation into the matter and assured that the perpetrators of the act would be brought to book.

I am expecting my third child and have successfully breastfed the first two, although both times I experienced pretty severe soreness for the first 7-10 days. The Vitamin E gel was almost no help. I resigned myself to dealing with the pain until a maternity nurse recommended soaking tea bags in very warm water and applying them to my nipples. Although I ruined a bra with tea stains, it helped. She said it had something to do with tannic acid but couldn't explain the exact reason it worked. I tried it again with my second child and had the same results. I plan packing tea bags when I go to the hospital this time also. Have you ever heard of this before, and if so do you know why it helps? I'm curious.Question:

Even with correct positioning and attachment, a nursing mom can experience some passing nipple tenderness during the first week, peaking around the third day following the birth. The key word here is passing. If your nipples are still feeling uncomfortable after the first week of breastfeeding, or if your nipples are cracked or bleeding at any time, it is time to look into what is causing the problem. The best thing you can do for you and your baby (and the nursing relationship), is to be seen by a Lactation Consultant. Getting breastfeeding off to the best possible start will be one of the best investments you will make.
Tea bags have been recommended for treatment of sore nipples for many years. They contain tannic acid (an astringent) which has anti-inflammatory properties. Studies have not been consistent in showing their benefit, though I don't see them complicating the situation in any way, as long as you determine the cause of continued nipple soreness.
Warm (water) compresses, expressed breastmilk, application of modified lanolin, or even warm, moist tea bags if you prefer, may provide relief once you have corrected the cause of the sore nipples. Do not use Vitamin E on your nipples, as once recommended, to aid in healing. It may actually irritate your skin, along with possibly exposing your baby to high doses of this vitamin. Wishing you pain-free nursing!Answer:

550cc Breast Implants and your breast sizeBefore and after pics of 550cc breast implants do not always tell the real truth. One of the most simple reasons for this is that breast implants have an obvious affect on the proportions of your body. In addition, profile of the breast implant (either low, moderate, or high) will also affect how 550cc will change the size of your breasts. How can you plan before you have your breast enlargement procedure if you will be satisfied with 550cc breast implants?
What is my breast size with 550cc Breast Implants?Your cosmetic surgeon will only be able to approximate how 550cc breast implants will change the size and shape of your breasts. In the old days doctors used to recommend filling a plastic bag with a volume of birdseed comparable to that of breast implants. With this in mind you should be reminded that these are only estimates. Contact your surgeon for more information. Pretty simply, a square plastic bag of birdseed just did not look much like 550cc breast implants. Now you can use breast implant sizers like the Purlz Breast Sizing System which actually look like a breast when you wear them.
Resulting breast size with 550cc Breast ImplantsBased on this implant size, if you are an A cup today you will most likely be a D after your breast augmentation procedure.
If you are an A cup today: D after your breast augmentation surgery. If you are a B cup today: DD after your breast enlargement surgery. If you have a C cup today: DDD after breast enhancement. While silicone breast implants will generally result in a fuller look they will increase your breast size comparable to saline. The ultimate determination of how 550cc breast implants will affect your breast size will be predicted by your breast implant surgeon. There are several factors that can impact these approximations however such as breast implant profile, placement under the muscle or over, your present muscle tissue and more.

Plato's Division of Goods in the Republic
In the Republic Plato draws a distinction among goods between (1) those that are good in themselves but not good for their consequences, (2) those that are good both in themselves and for their consequences, and (3) those that are not good in themselves but are good for their consequences. This paper presents an interpretation of this classification, in particular its application to the case of justice. It is argued that certain causal consequences of justice as well as factors that are not causal consequences of justice are relevant in explaining why justice is good in itself; and that it is only the reputation for justice and the causal consequences that follow from that reputation that are relevant in explaining why it is good for its consequences.Article

In the upcoming episode of Shakuntalam Telefim's popular daily soap Sapne Suhane Ladakpan on Zee TV, we will get to see a birthday celebration. Vaishnavi Macdonald Mahant who is seen essaying the role of Shail a.k.a Rachana's (Mahima Makwana) mother, will be seen celebrating her onscreen birthday.
Our source informed us, "There was a big celebration organised on the sets of the show for Shail's onscreen birthday. All the characters of the show were seen enjoying themselves in this happy moment."
Well many of the actors wish that their onscreen birthday should fall with their real birthday. In this matter it seems that Vaishnavi Macdonald is extremely lucky. Vaishnavi's real birthday is on the 9th of September and the telecast of her onscreen birthday celebration is also going to be shown on the same day.
On the same we got in touch with Vaishnavi Macdonald to know how happy she is and she said, "This is a really nice feeling to be celebrating your reel and real birthday together, I feel I am lucky."
Further she elaborated saying, "This is a co-incidence I would say that my reel and real birthday falls on the same date. It hardly ever happens, and we all on the sets realized it just yesterday about my reel and real birthday, while we were all sitting together."
"There was a huge celebration for my onscreen birthday on the sets of our show with proper decoration and a surprise to me. Our entire family got together to celebrate my reel birthday which at the end was a part of my real birthday too (laughs). We all enjoyed a lot during this celebration time."
Further when we got in a conversation with her on how she celebrates her birthday every year, we got to know that she does not celebrate her birthday, "I do not celebrate my birthday. I feel like I am a grown up now (laughs). A small cake cutting session takes place from past few years and that is it. There is no grand celebration as such."
"And now after celebrating my birthday along with my co-actors with a proper celebration which the viewers will get to see on the coming Monday in Sapne Suhane Ladakpan Ke, I feel that I have had enough of birthday celebration (smiles)."
Her birthday though will be the same like having a small cake cutting session at home, but this year she plans to spend some time at the orphanage where she will have her cake cutting ceremony, "My little daughter plans to celebrate her birthday with the Orphanage people. We have an Orphanage home near my house. So when my daughter can think like this than why not I, so hence I plan to have my cake cutting done at the orphanage and try to make them feel very happy."
Well that is really a nice thought. Hope Vaishnavi Macdonald has a superb birthday. We wish Vaishnavi a very Happy Birthday!
Krishma Solanki.

In the sort of gesture seen after the death of popular culture icons such as Princess Diana and Michael Jackson, fans of Knut the polar bear left flowers, candles, notes and stuffed bears at the gates of the Berlin zoo and outside the enclosure where Knut died Saturday.
Knut's sudden death at the young age of 4 galvanized those whom he had entertained over the years, with his cute antics and love of adulation and croissants.
According to an Associated Press report Sunday, Ingrid Rommel, a 65-year-old widow, said she visited Knut weekly and said he helped her deal with the sadness of losing her hudband. Knut had fan clubs all over the world.
"We received condolences from all over the world: Australia, New Zealand, Honolulu," bear keeper Heiner Kloes told German news agency DAPD, the AP reported.
He said Knut's body had been pulled from the pool in which he died and that an autopsy will be done Monday to determine cause of death.
Knut fan Nadine Hipauf worried that somebody may have poisoned Knut by throwing him something bad to eat, the AP reported.
Other fans said the giant bear died of stress because he was bullied by three female bears with whom he shared the enclosure. Reports say they were not there when he died. To read more about Knut, click on this Berlinonline bio. It calls him Berlin's "most prominent animal child." Also, a Facebook page entitled "R.I.P. Knute -- WE LOVE YOU 4EVER" allows fans to write condolences.

What I enjoy most about pediatrics is interacting with children and families. A lot of pediatricians' time is spent on teaching, and I take this role seriously. I enjoy helping parents understand their child's symptoms or illness and also making parents aware of the importance of things like immunizing and breastfeeding. I also aim to make the child and parent laugh or at least smile by the end of the visit.

SK Gary Radaszewski and SK Don Moore, Knights of the Month September 2012
At the September meeting of the St. Mary of Huntley Knights of Columbus Council # 11666, the trustees selected Don Moore and Gary Radaszewski as Knights of the Month for September 2012, recognizing their efforts coordinating the council's 2012 Campaign for People with Intellectual Disabilities.
Members of the Knights of Columbus do a great deal to assist people with intellectual disabilities. The Campaign for People with Intellectual Disabilities is one of the most popular programs conducted by Knights of Columbus state and local councils. The campaign is a fund raiser in which councils collect donations outside stores and on street corners, usually in the fall of each year. According to Don Moore, "The generosity and enthusiasm of those making donations was remarkable considering the current financial challenges everyone faces as a result of our nation's economy."

Men charged in murder of sheriff's officer left shoe prints: prosecutors
BY STEFANO ESPOSITO Staff Reporter December 23, 2013 5:50AM

Updated: January 25, 2014 6:14AM
After Brandon Jackson leveled a long-barrel revolver at Cook County Sheriff's Officer Cuauhtemoc Estrada and pulled the trigger Friday, Jackson and his accomplice fled to a home only 400 feet away, leaving shoe prints in the snow, prosecutors alleged in court Monday.
Jackson and Gage Thornton — both Bellwood men in their early 20s with petty criminal pasts — also were caught on surveillance video as Jackson allegedly shot Estrada, who died trying to protect his daughter and her boyfriend outside the Bellwood VFW hall, prosecutors said.
Inside a tiny courtroom in the basement of the Maywood courthouse Monday, Cook County Judge Ramon Ocasio ordered Jackson and Thornton held without bail. Both men are charged with first-degree murder and attempted armed robbery in Estrada's death.
Before Ocasio made his decision, Cook County Assistant State's Attorney Maureen O'Brien outlined the details of a crime in which the alleged culprits left clue after clue for investigators to use against them.
On Friday evening, Estrada — a 50-year-old father and grandfather — was preparing for a party at the Bellwood VFW hall. His daughter and her boyfriend pulled up, and began unloading food for the party, O'Brien said. That's when Jackson — armed with a .44 caliber handgun — and Thornton rushed the boyfriend, O'Brien said.
Jackson shoved the boyfriend and told him to "Give it up." When the boyfriend refused to let Jackson go through his pockets, Jackson allegedly said: "I ain't f------ with you. Get naked. Get naked."
Estrada came out of the VFW, saw the commotion and asked what was happening.
The boyfriend told Estrada the two men were trying to rob him.
As Estrada pulled out his gun, Jackson allegedly shot Estrada once in the chest, killing him, authorities said.
Numerous clues helped investigators nab both men quickly.
Footprints in the snow led back to Jackson's house in the 200 block of South 30th, prosecutors said. Poking out of the back pocket of Jackson's jeans was a black ski mask, the same type of mask the gunman wore during the shooting, prosecutors said. In the same residence, investigators found a "distinctive" red-and-blue jacket that the accomplice can be seen wearing in the surveillance video, prosecutors said. Four cartridges were found to be missing from a box of .44 caliber cartridges also located in Jackson's home, prosecutors said.
Thornton allegedly gave a video confession to police, saying he and Jackson committed the robbery, authorities said. Before police arrested the men, Jackson allegedly told a visitor to his home that he had taken part in a robbery and shot someone, authorities said.
As sheriff's deputies led Jackson and Thornton back to the lockup after Monday's hearing, an unidentified family member called out, "Brandon, we love you!"
Estrada's wake is scheduled between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m. Friday at Russo's Chapel, 4500 Roosevelt Road, in Hillside.
Funeral services are scheduled at 10 a.m. Saturday at Holy Name Cathedral.

Inside the inconspicuous space on NE 2nd, there's a generous bar and a small dance floor where on "Rewind Saturdays" lots of '80s music is played. Most gather in the big seating area outside, where on any given weekend there are so many guests, the sound of martini glasses threatens to drown out the clinking of crack pipes coming from around the neighborhood.

For the love of Christ, will you social media gurus please learn to change your passwords once in a while? A scant 24 hours after someone hijacked Burger King's Twitter account and began pumping out pro-McDonald's sentiment, it appears Jeep's verified account has now been compromised.
The account's about page now reads: "The official Twitter handle for the Jeep® — Just Empty Every Pocket, Sold To Cadillac =[
#OpMadCow #OpWhopper." The avatar is now a Cadillac logo, and the background picture is now a low-rider with a McDonald's paint job. Jeep is now tweeting things like, "You'll never catch @ 50cent ridin in a Dirty Ass @ Jeep !!!! #ForDaLuLz #FreeJeep."
It looks like it's the same perpetrators as yesterday and pretty much just a total rerun. This, for example, is an awfully similar joke to what we saw yesterday with Burger King:
We got sold to @cadillac because we caught our employees doing these in the bathroom =[ twitter.com/Jeep/status/30…
— Jeep (@Jeep) February 19, 2013
We can't wait for Elon Musk to connect this back to the New York Times.
(Update: 3:08 p.m.) Gizmodo suggests the guilty party is a DJ from New England (ain't it always?) named Tony Cunha, a.k.a. iThug. Hey, while we're dispensing digital survival tips, here's some advice for all you hackers out there: Don't start bragging about your exploits to cute girls on Facebook.
iThug followed up on one of those Twitter shoutouts by bragging to a girl (and pal from the Boston music scene) in question with his real-life Facebook account (deleted immediately after @Jeep was taken over, mind you). Using his real life name. He just had to show off (this post has also been deleted post-Jeep).
(Update: 3:18 p.m.) Okay, now this is just getting goddamn ridiculous: There's a possibility the MTV and BET accounts have now been hacked, as well. One minute MTV was tweeting about sideboob at the Spring Breakers premiere; the next it was "ON A SCALE OF 1 TO RATCHET, HOW MUCH BETTER ARE THE @
BET AWARDS THAN THE VMAS???" BET just has an MTV avatar and "this is a takeover!!!" on the about page.
How many brand accounts have to get hacked before we actually get two-factor authentication?
However, there's another, more excruciatingly stupid possibility, which is that this could all be some big Viacom viral marketing scheme, in which case fuck you, Viacom. Reuters' Matthew Keys points out that an MTV employee tweeted "Everyone watch @MTV right now… #MTVHACK" right before the takeover.
We've reached out to Twitter for comment and will update if we hear anything back.
(Update: 3:55 p.m.) MTV has now owned up to its attempt to bullshit the Internet:
We totally Catfish-ed you guys. Thanks for playing! <3 you, @bet. ;)
— MTV (@MTV) February 19, 2013
As this Betabeat reporter's mama is fond of saying: It's not funny and it's not cute, guys. It's also a hell of a note that hacked brand accounts are now common enough they're treated as their very own viral marketing opportunity.

Wonder if anyone fould all of the A.P.E. caches, and if not, then who found the most?
In my area you don't always get a blank log for being FTF. There may be names on the log. But in that case, those names are down below a space set aside for the FTF.

In our area when people are with the cache hider. They will either sign the back of the log and leave the front clean or not sign it and wait for a FTF and then log a beta-tester find.
I had heard of dirty caching. Sometimes on puzzle caches some people go to the posted coords and look around based on the hint on the cache page and and can find it without solving the puzzle.
I wish I was able to finish that awesome cache called Snakes and Ladders in Kit Carson park. http://coord.info/GCJG08. Just to many pieces keep going missing. I has gotten to the water fountain stage and the next part with the tree was missing. But Parsa and Dan-Oh's caches are amazing.
Thanks for the show. It just goes to fast._________________

What's shaking tonight?
We're having leftovers.
|Thu, 02-07-2013 - 7:43am
"Sandy. Maybe you should play doctor later and fix him." "Nancy Nurse" = SUPER SECRET SPY CODE!! I agree with Cara.... unless John got to feeling worse, I'm sure he got his favorite birthday gift!
I made what we affectionately call "Cheesy Pot." Before Amber was married, I had my menu plan on the fridge and one night I abbreviated and wrote "Cheesy Pot".... short for "Cheesy Potatoes w/Kielbasa." Well, she started calling it that and now we all do... lol. Sorry if I've already told that story!
This is how scatterbrained I've been lately.... I went to the store specifically for stuff for Cheesy Pot. I bought everything.... even down to another jar of dehydrated minced onions.... and when I got home, I realized I had not purchased the stinking kielbasa!!
Ugh.... I've had cheesy potatoes before (with no meat in them) but it was for a side dish and I knew Ash and my hubby were not going to like that since they are both meat eaters. So, I considered putting chopped up pepperoni in them but I didn't really have that much... only a few slices. I also considered putting in the ham that I have in the freezer left from Christmas but Ashleigh will not eat ham (she got sick on it once).... so, I had to improvise.... I made her a 1/4 of the cheesy pot with the pepperoni and I made 3/4 of it with the ham! Had enough to send leftovers with both me & hubby for lunch today.

What's shaking Susan? I think Sandy and John..... Happy Birthday, good sir!
|Wed, 02-06-2013 - 7:59pm
Well we ended up at California Pizza Kitchen . Ok by me since I was paying - roflmao!~!!!!!!!!!!! Now I am on to play "Nancy Nurse" -
|Wed, 02-06-2013 - 7:15pm
Sorry to hear John isn't feeling good on his birthday, Sandy. Maybe you should play doctor later and fix him.
I made a modified recipe from something I saw on Pinterest. I made bacon wrapped chicken breasts. I used turkey bacon and reduced fat cream-cheese. I pounded the breasts flat, sprinkled seasoned salt on them, then laid them each on a few pieces of bacon (4 pieces per breast). I then mixed garlic powder in the cream cheese, and softened it. I put a blob of that on each end of the breast. Pull the bacon up, secure with toothpick, and bake. They were great. We had that with skillet fried potatoes (not my favorite so I didn't have many) and salads. I would have made the crash hot potatoes but there wasn't room in the oven.
|Wed, 02-06-2013 - 3:56pm
Well a bit of a change of plans. John is feeling ok but not terrific. We will save the fancy expensive dinner for another time and just go out for something light.
|Wed, 02-06-2013 - 3:39pm
Happy Birthday to John! It's my sister's birthday today too. Hope he is feeling better and it was just a temporary thing.
Tonight is the crazy dance schedule night. It will probably be grilled cheese and soup.
|Wed, 02-06-2013 - 3:35pm
I love KY Fried Chicken. I don't eat it often though. Shelly, with P around maybe you will get to start really cooking again.
|Wed, 02-06-2013 - 2:23pm
P was feeling better and went to his rental house at work to pick up a few things. Just got a text from him asking if we wanted Kyntucky fried Chicken for dinner. Of course, anytime I don't have to cook is a plus for me!!!

It's the time of year to talk about New Year's Resolutions and Goals.
But what if you don't want your hopes, dreams and plans to go the way of every other year's abandoned or failed New Year's resolutions?
Last year, I joined an accountability group and learned goals must be WRITTEN down. Committing goals to a fixed form helps keep your eye on the prize instead of watching good intentions disappear with those New Year's champagne bubbles.
Once you have them written down, take a close look at them. Are your goals, S.M.A.R.T.? That is to say, are your goals
- Specific
- Is your goal clear and unambigous? What exactly do you want to accomplish?
- Measurable
- How will you know when you're done?
- Achievable
- Can you realistically attain this goal? What changes will you need to make in order to reach this goal?
- Relevant
- Why is it important to accomplish this goal?
- Time-Bound
- When will you have it completed by? How long will it take you? Is this realistic?
Bob Mayer in his Who Dares Wins book and Warrior Writer workshops, teaches the idea that not only do you need to know WHAT you want to accomplish, but WHY you want to achieve those goals and HOW you plan to overcome any obstacles along the way. These ideas, learned in his Green Beret days, dovetail nicely with the S.M.A.R.T. goals mentioned above.
Now that you have your set of goals, you need to make sure you keep working toward hem. Personal accountability is only so good. It's been proven we do better if we have to answer to someone else. If you don't belong to a writers' group (online or off) or a writing forum of some sort already, these can be great sources of support and people who can hold you accountable.
Other ways to hold yourself accountable include:
- Posting your goals publicly on your blog.
- Write your goals on a post-it and tape it to your monitor or something else you look at every day.
- Sending email to your future self via a service like futureme.org
- Posting your small daily goals on Twitter some #hashtags already exist for writing: #amwriting, #writegoal, #goalwar
- Using task management software like Things for the Mac, or Lifetick online
Also important is the periodic reviewing, adjusting and reality checking of your goals. You need to make them and your daily routine work for you and change what isn't working.
Blog Plans
One of the goals I promised myself I'd work toward this year is having a more active blog. I brainstormed a long list of topics and then organized them into several categories. I want to keep exploring the creative process of writing, but I also want to explore more of the Regency Era of early 19th Century England as well as improve my Regency Resources Page.
I'll be covering a wide array of topics I hope will prove interesting and valuable resources in the future. The writing categories I've chosen (The Writer, Writing as Art, Writing as Craft, and Writing Life) will rotate on a weekly basis and I want to do at least one Regency Resource post each week. So I hope you'll follow along this year and chime in too!
So, are you gonna reach your goals in 2010 and beyond? I came closer than ever before in 2009 by using these concepts, and I know 2010 is going to be even better!

Morningstar analysts cover more than 300 ETFs. Below is a sample Analyst Report for another ETF, IPE.
SPDR Barclays TIPS ETF
Morningstar Rating
ETF Research and Analysis
by Abby Woodham
SPDR Barclays TIPS IPE tracks a broad, cap-weighted index of Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities. This exchange-traded fund does not hold bonds until maturity, which removes the shortest-term bonds from its portfolio.
Read more
Bull Case
TIPS let investors hedge against unexpected inflation: the possibility that the future rate of inflation is higher than the market expects.
After their price decline in 2013, TIPS now offer cheaper inflation hedging than in recent years.
The market's expected rate of future inflation is below the historical average rate of inflation.
Read more
Bear Case
IPE's duration is the highest among broad TIPS ETFs, exposing it to more interest-rate risk.
TIPS funds are not correlated with inflation. An investment in IPE will not guarantee preserved purchasing power over any time period.
If the market overestimates the future rate of inflation, Treasuries will outperform TIPS.

Louis Wain was an English artist known for drawing cats, going crazy, and then drawing more cats. Later in his life he developed schizophrenia and psychologists believe that his descent into madness can be clearly seen in his cat drawings.
Schizophrenia is a mental disorder characterised by a total disintegration of nearly every aspect of human psychology, including thought, perception, behaviour, language, emotion and communication; these disturbances usually manifest in visual/auditory hallucinations, paranoid delusions, disorganised speech and complete social dysfunction – in other words, schizophrenia is the deep end in the pool of mental disorders.
Let's take a journey through Wain's psychological breakdown through the following pencil and oil on canvas portraits of cats below.
