FRANKFURT, Germany and COSTA MESA, Calif., Oct. 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- SNW EUROPE -- Emulex Corporation (NYSE: ELX), today announced the OneCore™ Storage software development kit (SDK), a new comprehensive solution for independent hardware and software vendors (IHVs and ISVs) and system integrators who are developing storage, flash/solid state disk (SSD), application and networking appliance solutions that require low latency and high performance I/O connectivity. The Emulex OneCore Storage SDK includes a collection of high performance initiator and target driver source code, documentation, training and support which allows IHVs/ISVs to leverage Emulex's breakthrough Emulex Engine™ (XE) 201 converged fabric controller technology, which is capable of 8Gb and 16Gb Fibre Channel (8GFC and 16GFC) and 10Gb Ethernet (10GbE), Fibre Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and iSCSI I/O connectivity, within their own storage networking solutions.

"The Emulex XE201 converged fabric controller-based products will help appliance partners develop solutions to address the explosive growth of optimized solutions for enterprise, cloud, SSD/flash and big data," said Shaun Walsh, senior vice president of marketing and corporate development, Emulex. "This new SDK enables IHVs and ISVs to accelerate their time to market with complementary high performance I/O connectivity solutions, powered by Emulex, that are ideal for keeping pace with the demands of I/O caching, highly virtualized environments and performance hungry applications that need more bandwidth, throughput and faster response times."
The Emulex OneCore Storage SDK simplifies and accelerates the process of developing storage solutions based on Emulex's code base, with an extensible, modular framework and architecture. Leveraging a straightforward, easy to use click-through end user licensing agreement streamlines and simplifies the procurement of the tool kit. The Emulex OneCore Storage SDK includes the SDK device driver source code, release notes, documentation, training, and access to a developer portal, as well as a community support forum.
Additional key benefits of the OneCore Storage Developers program include:
- Elastic Driver Development Approach: IHVs/ISVs can leverage the Emulex target and initiator reference drivers in several ways: as the foundation of their driver, utilizing specific layer(s) as the building block for their driver, or as reference code for their own driver development. The OneCore Storage SDK also provides a common driver framework and architecture that will support all storage protocols (FC, FCoE and iSCSI).
- Extensible Modular Driver Architecture: The Emulex OneCore Storage SDK has been designed from the ground up to be protocol and operating system (OS) agnostic. This unique driver architecture provides a clean, easily understood reference driver which can be used by customers as the foundation or as a building block for their driver. The OneCore Storage SDK consists of Emulex's Service Level Interface (SLI™), Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL), transport code and abstracted OS interfaces for OS-specific implementations. The OneCore Storage SDK also contains a SCSI-like API for back-end target and initiator connectivity.
- Ideal for Storage, Flash Array and Appliance Vendors: With the fastest 16GFC adapters available today, capable of more than 1.2 million I/O operations per second (IOPS) on a single port,¹ developers can leverage Emulex FC and FCoE technology to power their SSD/flash-based storage appliances, and take advantage of the performance and management characteristics needed to support virtualized servers and cloud deployments.
- Broad Platform Support: OneCore Storage includes both Linux (Red Hat Enterprise Linux [RHEL] 6.2) and FreeBSD 9.0 SDKs. In addition, the OS agnostic design gives developers the option of porting the drivers to other OSes.
- Flexible Back-end Support: The OneCore Storage SDK architecture allows customers to utilize their own customer-specific back-end or standard Linux or FreeBSD back-ends.
- Advanced Standards Support: OneCore Storage SDK drivers provide support for advanced standards such as N_Port Identification Virtualization (NPIV), which allows users to maintain SAN best practices within a virtualized environment, and T10 Protection Information (T10 PI), providing enhanced data protection against silent data corruption.

Emulex Safe Harbor Statement
"Safe Harbor" Statement under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995: With the exception of historical information, the statements set forth above include forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Emulex wishes to caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Those factors include among others, intellectual property claims, with or without merit, that could result in costly litigation, cause product shipment delays, require Emulex to indemnify customers, or require Emulex to enter into royalty or licensing agreements, which may or may not be available. Furthermore, Emulex has in the past obtained, and may be required in the future to obtain, licenses of technology owned by other parties. Emulex cannot be certain that the necessary licenses will be available or that they can be obtained on commercially reasonable terms. If Emulex were to fail to obtain such royalty or licensing agreements in a timely manner and on reasonable terms, Emulex's business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected. Ongoing lawsuits, such as the action brought by Broadcom Corporation ("Broadcom"), present inherent risks, any of which could have a material adverse effect on Emulex's business, financial condition, or results of operations. Such potential risks include continuing expenses of litigation, risk of loss of patent rights and/or monetary damages, risk of injunction against the sale of products incorporating the technology in question, counterclaims, attorneys' fees, incremental costs associated with product or component redesigns, and diversion of management's attention from other business matters. With respect to the Broadcom litigation, such potential risks also include the availability of an adequate sunset period of time to make design changes, the ability to implement any design changes, the availability of customer resources to complete any re-qualification or re-testing that may be needed, the ability to maintain favorable working relationships with Emulex suppliers of serializer/deserializer (SerDes) modules and the ability to obtain a settlement that does not put Emulex at a competitive disadvantage. In addition, the fact that the economy generally, and the technology and storage segments specifically, have been in a state of uncertainty makes it difficult to determine if past experience is a good guide to the future and makes it impossible to determine if markets will grow or shrink in the short term. The current economic downturn and the resulting disruptions in world credit and equity markets that are creating economic uncertainty for Emulex's customers and the storage networking market as a whole has, and could, continue to adversely affect Emulex's revenues and results of operations. Furthermore, the effect of any actual or potential unsolicited offers to acquire Emulex may have an adverse effect on Emulex's operations. As a result of these uncertainties, Emulex is unable to predict its future results with any accuracy. Other factors affecting these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following: faster than anticipated decline in the storage networking market; slower than expected growth of the storage networking market or the failure of Emulex's Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) customers to successfully incorporate Emulex products into their systems; Emulex's dependence on a limited number of customers and the effects of the loss of, decrease in or delays of orders by any such customers, or the failure of such customers to make timely payments; the emergence of new or stronger competitors as a result of consolidation movements in the market; the timing and market acceptance of Emulex products or Emulex OEM customers' new or enhanced products; costs associated with entry into new areas of the storage technology market; the variability in the level of Emulex's backlog and the variable and seasonal procurement patterns of Emulex's customers; any inadequacy of Emulex's intellectual property protection and the costs of actual or potential third-party claims of infringement and any related indemnity obligations or adverse judgments; impairment charges, including but not limited to goodwill and intangible assets; changes in tax rates or legislation; the effects of acquisitions; the effects of terrorist activities; natural disasters, such as the earthquake and resulting tsunami off the coast of Japan in March 2011 and the significant flooding in various parts of Thailand in October 2011, and any resulting disruption in Emulex's supply chain or customer purchasing patterns or any other resulting economic or political instability; the highly competitive nature of the markets for Emulex products as well as pricing pressures that may result from such competitive conditions; the effects of changes in Emulex's business model to separately charge for software; the effect of rapid migration of customers towards newer, lower cost product platforms; possible transitions from board or box level to application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) solutions for selected applications; a shift in unit product mix from higher-end to lower-end or mezzanine card products; a faster than anticipated decrease in the average unit selling prices or an increase in the manufactured cost of Emulex products; delays in product development; Emulex's reliance on third-party suppliers and subcontractors for components and assembly; Emulex's ability to attract and retain key technical personnel; Emulex's ability to benefit from research and development activities; Emulex's dependence on international sales and internationally produced products; changes in accounting standards; and the potential effects of global warming and any resulting regulatory changes on Emulex's business. These and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are also discussed in Emulex's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its recent filings on Forms 8-K, 10-K and 10-Q. Statements in this release are based on current expectations and, except as required by law, Emulex undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements for any reason.

Nigeria has the largest economy in Africa, at more than US$500 billion, and ranks 23rd in the world. A recent re-evaluation of Nigeria's true economic size doubled the previous estimate, and brought it well ahead of South Africa, which is a member (unlike Nigeria) of the G20 club for political as well as economic reasons. Nigeria's economy can be said to be quite diverse from one point of view, but heavily dependent on oil and gas at the same time. Oil and natural gas account for about 15% of Nigera's overall economy, but traditionally represent more than 90% of the country's exports and as...

Lumenhaus draws from charm of van der Rohe's Farnsworth House
BY MARY HOULIHAN firstname.lastname@example.com June 9, 2011 11:34AM
The Lumenhaus — winner of the International Solar Decathlon Competition — is on display at Farnsworth House in Plano.
Updated: September 22, 2011 12:30AM
Mies van der Rohe's Farnsworth House, a timeless masterpiece of modernism, sits peacefully on the banks of the Fox River just waiting to be admired.
The stunning glass box is a gem in our own backyard. Architecture fans from around the world, about 10,000 a year, make the trek (a 60-mile drive southeast of Chicago) to admire van der Rohe's vision. And now, as added incentive, the Lumenhaus, a special exhibit through July 31, adds to the draw.
Designed by students at Virginia Tech and inspired by the Farnsworth House, the Lumenhaus is an innovative house integrating architecture and technology to create a well-designed, energy-independent, mobile structure.
The Lumenhaus sits in a cornfield by the visitors center and does, indeed, look like the modern-day spawn of the Farnsworth House. And if you love the Farnsworth, you'll want to live in the Lumenhaus.
Equipped with smart-grid technology, geothermal heat and materials chosen for sustainability and beauty, the Lumenhaus also is surrounded by water gardens that repurpose gray water and rain water. A zero-energy home, it is completely powered by the sun. A fully automated Eclipsis System, comprising independent sliding layers across the glass panels, permits a revolutionary design in a solar-powered house while filtering light in beautiful, flowing patterns throughout the day.
The Lumenhaus is the first special exhibit at the Farnsworth site, and executive director Whitney French would like to see more in the future.
"The Lumenhaus is going over well," French said. "We'd like to do something like this every year."
But the main draw will always be the Farnsworth. Tours begin at the visitors center with a half-mile walk through the woods, where the house sits surrounded by grass, plants and trees.
On a recent visit, tour guide Joan Knutson walked a group through the house, pointing out the rare prima vera wood paneling, travertine marble flooring and how the architect situated the house to take full advantage of the view.
Knutson builds into the conversation a concise history of the steel and glass structure.
Earlier this decade, it might have disappeared from Illinois if not for the diligent work of the Landmarks Preservation Council of Illinois, Knutson explained.
Finished by van der Rohe in 1951, it was built as a country home for Dr. Edith Farnsworth, who owned it until 1972, when she sold the house to Lord Peter Palumbo, a British art collector and real estate developer.
Palumbo, in turn, put the house up for sale at a Sotheby's auction in 2003. Since the house does not have landmark status protection, there was nothing preventing someone from buying it and moving it out of Illinois. However, the Illinois preservationists group, after some last-minute fund-raising, had the winning bid, $7.5 million.
The house, now owned and operated as a house museum by the National Trust for Historic Preservation, remains as described in an introductory video: "one artist's philosophy distilled in one beautiful little box."
† The Farnsworth House and the Lumenhaus are at 14520 River Rd., Plano. Hours are 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday through Sunday. Admission is $20, and daily guided tours are available. Call (630) 552-0052; farnsworthhouse.org.

Speaking at the inauguration, Vinod Kumar mentioned that in future all existing retiring rooms in major railway stations coming under the Mysore division like Davangere, Harihar, Hassan, Shimoga would be handed over to private parties on contractual basis under PPP model to run the retiring rooms.
The Indian Railways has signed a 15-year agreement with Hotel Sandesh The Prince for upgrading the facilities in a professional manner for achieving higher levels of customer satisfaction. "The railways in the process not only will earn substantial revenue through user charges but also will be saving recurring expenditure on staff costs and other overheads. The upgradation of retiring rooms at Mysore railway station is undertaken under ROT scheme through PPP model," he said.

Mahler Symphony No 2 'Resurrection'
7:45pm Monday 28 July 2014
Worcester Cathedral, WR1 2LA
- Festival Chorus
- Philharmonia Orchestra
- Juraj Valčuha conductor
- Katherine Broderick soprano
- Jennifer Johnston mezzo-soprano
Tackling broad questions of life after death, Mahler's much-loved second symphony ranks as one of the most expansive symphonies ever written. The performance of this inspiring work is the first visit to the festival for Juraj Valčuha, chief conductor of the RAI National Symphony Orchestra.
Juraj Valčuha is kindly supported by Richard Arenschieldt
- Event information
Gustav Mahler Symphony No 2
In C minor and titled 'The Resurrection' this symphony was written over a 6 year period and is a meditation on the broader, universal matters of life and death.
Mahler was fascinated by the subjects of metaphysics, existentialism, cosmology, the meaning of life and death and what happens to us after we die and spent his whole life trying to interpret these issues as best he could through his music using these questions as sublime inspiration: "Why have you lived? Why have you suffered? Is all of this just a terrible joke? What is this life and this death? Is there a hereafter for us? Is all of this a wild dream, or has this life and this death a meaning?"
The symphony has much in common with a Requiem, and brings together numerous quotations from composers of the 19th century, Beethoven included. The first movement derives from an abandoned single-movement composition called Todtenfeier (Funeral Rite). Of its re-conception, Mahler commented: "I have named the first movement 'Funeral Rite,' and, if you are curious, it is the hero of my First Symphony that I am burying here and whose life I am gathering up in a clear mirror, from a higher vantage point."
Answering these questions required Mahler to compose the largest symphony ever made in terms of forces, length, and harmonic boldness. Earsplitting chords of seven different notes are not uncommon. The fourth movement is a setting of a text from a German folklore collection (adored by Mahler) called Das Knaben Wunderhorn (The Youth's Magic Horn), where the alto soloist seeks release from the burdens of life. The fifth movement is blessedly brighter and proposes renewal—the "Resurrection" promised by the title.

Tickets for the festival will be available from Thursday the 17th of April 2014

Answer from: K.
You have to be friends with one of your villagers. One day, they will talk to you about Crazy Redd. Next, they will ask if you been in his shop. If not, soon they will send a letter to you with 3,000 bells. Don't use the money. Go to the city on the stairs to the left and go through the door. Then you're done. Crazy Redd is a person like Tom Nook. He can't buy your stuff, but you can buy his stuff. His stuff is expensive.
Answer from: cellcell8
How do you be friends with a villager?
Answer from: K.
Answer to cellcell8: Talk to them a lot, get what they want, give them nice letters and presents, and in a while, they will talk to you about Redd.Well, I'm not sure if you have to be friends but sometimes they will randomly talk to you. Oh I'm sorry but villagers don't give you the money. You have to already have the money. Q: How old are you I'm only 8 for real.xD
Answer from: ffi ffi
Well if red is someone that works at the end of the city and is quite cheeky if you want to get in give your villagers nice letters and presents and they should give a invitation to u but you should talk to them face to face in case they don't send you the invitation thanks
Answer from: CeCe

Sew What? A Raincoat for Your Camera
Ah, spring! It's good to see the roads losing their veneer of ice and the rivers running free again. But it's not all blue skies and balmy breezes. Spring is a soggy season in this part of the world. Clinging mantles of fog lie long in the valleys, while cold rain falls as fast (and as often) as the rivers rise. And though I wouldn't go quite as far as T.S. Eliot in branding April "the cruelest month," I have to admit that the weather isn't always kind. Wet and windy — those are the key words. Which isn't a good reason in itself to stay indoors, of course. Most cyclists, canoeists and kayakers soon realize that if they wait for perfect weather, they'll almost never go out, so they learn to cope. Good rain gear helps. It keep us dry and warm. But it's only the start. Our stuff needs protection, too.
Shutterbugs have the hardest time. Water and electronics just don't mix, and electronic circuits are the heart and brain of modern digital cameras. We've pretty much thrown off our old dependence on film, but a new addiction has replaced it: We're now hooked on batteries. And a few drops of water in the wrong place can stop us in our tracks. Luckily, passing showers pose little threat to all‑weather photographers. Just tuck your camera under your jacket. Then, when you want to capture a shot in a swirling drizzle, unfurl your umbrella. But good as these stopgap solutions are, they're still stopgaps. If you want to make certain you won't miss opportunities, you'll have to keep your camera out and ready at all times. Moreover, if you're hoping to photograph wary wildlife, you don't want to be waving an umbrella around, even if the wind isn't blowing half a gale. So you're left with a stark choice. Protect your camera and risk losing that shot of a lifetime. Or keep the camera handy and leave it to the uncertain mercy of wind and rain. (Owners of waterproof cameras will be feeling justifiably smug here, but not all good cameras are waterproof, and even when a camera body is advertised as "weatherproof," the lens you attach to it may not be.) Is there a solution to this conundrum? Yes, and it's surprisingly simple. Make a custom camera cover…Read more…

Easy Beef Stew Pot Pie Recipe- A Super Easy Meal for Fall
With the arrival of fall and thoughts of the holidays on the way and most of my family far away I found myself getting my annual itch of nostalgic cooking. Ask any member of my parent's family what dish they look forward to all year and you'll get one of two answers. Neither of them involves a turkey. My father will almost certainly say pot roast. My sisters will without question say beef stew. If you ask me they're pretty much the same when prepared using my mother's heirloom recipe.
I've made it exactly once and as much as I enjoy the reminder of home it brings I pretty much REFUSE to make the time investment it requires. Why? Because my mother is a glutton for punishment and her dish requires one to labor over a hot stove for hours upon hours until your hair stinks like onions and you've pretty much lost your mind. So this recipe had been cast off until a few weeks ago when one of my bloggy besties was working on a project and told me about Kraft Recipe Makers.
Basically they are prepared sauces you can use to season food. I mean nothing new and revolutionary, right? In fact, ever the skeptic But I liked that they were meant for use in a slowcooker. And then while I was at Walmart I saw that there was one for New England Pot Roast.
That's right mom. If you're reading this, first of all I'm ducking and second of all you're going to cry when you find out that all these years you could have been out running errands instead of slaving over the stove for 12+ hours. Because I have to be honest, the end result was really pretty darn close to your recipe. Then because I adore pot pies and consider them the highlight to inclement weather I decided to turn my beef stew into pot pies. Lazy style. Here's how I did it.
I roughly cut some fingerling potatoes, carrots and yellow onions. For things like this I don't use measurements, simply the oh that looks good rule. In order to save your sanity I'll say it was about 4 carrots, 4 cups of potatoes and 3/4 of an onion.
The Kraft Recipe Makers box calls for 1lb of meat but I used just under 1.5 lbs of stew meat and it worked just fine. Plenty of flavor to go around. I tossed the meat and vegetables into my slow cooker and then poured the Simmer Sauce over them. That's right, Recipe Makers has two sauces. One the ingredients cook in the entire time and then one you add about 15 minutes before the dish is done.
I cooked this on high for about 6.5 hours stirring every once in a while. At the end I added in the Finishing Sauce and gave it a really good stir. When I came back 15 minutes later it sure did seem like pure home cooking beef stew. Only I didn't reek like it AND I'd managed to spend that time completely rearranging all of the furniture in our living room and moving a giant toy storage unit into Kayla's new room. Perhaps I am becoming my mother after all.
After the stew finished cooking I whipped out some prepared crescent roll dough. You know, the kind you find in the refrigerated section of the grocery store.
Yep, if you're going to eat beef stew I figure you might as well do it the right way and add a buttery crust. If you know me, you know this kind of eating is rare BUT it's the perfect meal for curing a case of homesickness or getting yourself to a place of "I'm okay with this whole change of seasons."
Earlier in the day I happened to stumble upon these fall cookie cutters I had bought last year and thought they were the perfect easy way to make my pot pies look a little more special and dare I say Martha-like. Certainly she would approve of seasonally appropriate ornamentation of food.
I baked these for about 13 minutes at 375 degrees and they came out looking pretty perfect. My incredibly picky husband agreed that they tasted quite good. Much better than the cooking he used to get when we first got married. And I think he liked that the kitchen didn't get destroyed in the process either!

I was just talking about making pot pies!!! Oh, this is super easy. Thanks, J! Now I don't have to go and find a recipe!!!!!ReplyDelete
I went grocery shopping yesterday and could not find the Kraft Recipe Makers. What area of Walmart did you find them? Perhaps I'm checking out the wrong grocery aisles.ReplyDelete
That looks so good. It's just started cooling off here in Texas and I am SO EXCITED!!! It's my favorite time, and foods like this are perfect for Fall! Great job.ReplyDelete
This looks soooo delicious!!ReplyDelete
Oh that looks amazing!ReplyDelete

The Great Divide - Children's Book Review
Animals, like people, enjoy spending time with their friends and family. Many groups of animals have their own unique names. Did you know that a group of gorillas is called a band? And a bunch of billy goats is a tribe? Following in the footsteps of Multiply on the Fly (multiplication), What's New at the Zoo? (addition) and What's the Difference? (subtraction), this rhythmic, fun-to-read-aloud book introduces children to division as they conquer bands, tribes, mobs and more.
In The Great Divide, children can learn about groups of animals while committing division skills to memory. Different types of animals are represented in colorful illustrations. The cadence of the story is told in a rhyming format. Further lessons can be learned in the "Creative Minds" section of the book. Collective nouns matching and a detailed explanation of division are just a couple of the educational pages that provide supplemental educational material.
The Great Divide is a Spring 2012 release from Sylvan Dell Publishing.
I received book for review. The opinions within this post are of my own and I was not influenced in any way. Please do your own research before purchasing products. Your opinions and results may differ.

I am thoroughly confused on whether or not to order a Boppy. In my breastfeeding class, our teacher said not to get one because it encourages the baby to position himself more on his back than on his side, which prevents a good latch, leading to all those awful symptoms of breastfeeding. Then I was reading some articles on breastfeeding on FitPregnancy.com last night and it said one of the best ways to combat back pain postpartum was to use a breastfeeding pillow so that you don't arch over to feed the baby and to position him at the correct height. I'm already dealing with previous back injuries and I really don't want to exacerbate them more than they already are, but I also don't want to create more problems with breastfeeding than I need to. I'm also thinking that, if I have some discomfort from labor (something that I worry about more and more every day I am overdue), it might be nice to have to sit on.
Has anyone used a Boppy or breastfeeding pillow, and would you recommend it or not? What has worked best for you?
I like my Boppy, but I had BFing with it. It's too soft and squishy and, as you said, the baby either rolls onto his back or rolls inward toward my stomach. Neither is conducive to a good latch.
I LOVE the My Breast Friend nursing pillow. It is much stiffer foam, so it really supports baby in the proper position for good nursing. And it buckles around mom's middle, so you can position baby at the exact height that is most comfortable for you.
Plenty of people nurse with a Boppy just fine. And they are nice for nursing an older baby. We just use our Boppy for extra support when holding him, for tummy time, and as a place to sit him kind of propped up when we are playing with him. They are nice, but I don't use mine for nursing.
I used mine to breastfeed my son with no issues (in all fairness, I haven't tried anything else). Even if you don't use it for breastfeeding, it's still good to have around for holding the baby or lying the baby in when you need five baby-free minutes.
If you don't get a Boppy, I'd get some sort of support for breastfeeding, especially if you're already dealing with back issues. HTH!
I had a Boppy and used it every time I nursed at home until DD was close to 9 months I think. It worked for us really well and I never noticed positioning or latch issues due to it.
Definitely get some kind of breastfeeding support pillow like PPs suggested or even see if you can borrow one from someone to decide.
ETA: I already have mine washed up and packed for the hospital!
I may be in the minority but I really like nursing with the boppy, and it's worked well for both DS1 and DS2 now. Both of them are able to nurse on their side, tummy to my tummy, which is works best for us.
I haven't tried my breast friend, so not sure how it compares.
DS1: Quinn - 10.22.10 and DS2: Cole - 01.18.13
I love my Boppy. It can be tricky when BFing because LO can roll if you're not sitting upright and pulling LO snug, tummy to tummy. Sometimes I just position the Boppy sideways instead of directly over my abdomen just to give my arm something to rest on.
I use it for the football hold and cross cradling. I wouldn't really say that the Boppy, in itself, helps with back pain. What I've found that helps is piling up firm pillows behind me for lumbar support, turning the heating pad on, and resting my back on that. The Boppy, to me, is best used to hold my arm up and to keep it from getting tired while cradling LOs body and head.
ETA: I do sit in a pretzel type position to lift the Boppy up so LO is at the right height. Maybe that's the issue pps are talking about?
Get a Boppy! I can totally BF my son on his side with NO problem.
I brought my Boppy to the hospital but the nurses and the lactation consultant always propped me up with pillows instead and never "let" me use my Boppy. They were obsessed with building a little freaking fort around me every single time my son wanted some food. It's SO much easier to just grab the Boppy and go to town!
Is the Boppy perfect? No. But you'll be able to make it work. It only takes an IQ of about 3 to prop up some blankets under the Boppy in order to make it a better height, or to slide your hand under your LO's head to get him higher, or lower your legs so he sits lower... it's just such an easier way to go.

Great Expectations
It's hard to be a gardener when you're a perfectionist. Mother Nature has a tendency to play by her own mysterious rules, and plants, of course, rely on her largesse. The result is that despite certain predictabilities we're never entirely sure what we're going to get from season to season – that's even more the case after a difficult winter, spring and summer like the ones we experienced this year. As I get ready to put my garden to bed until 2015, I'm reminded that for a gardener there's always another season, another year to come – and to look beyond the proverbial forest and see not just the trees, but the leaves, buds and blooms as well.

Christopher Hays and Allison Ewing envisioned creating a small community founded on ecologically intelligent planning and construction. They invited a group of respected colleagues and formed the Rivanna Collaborative LLC.
The site is a one and one-half acre parcel located at the corner of Chesapeake Street and Riverside Avenue, adjacent to the entrance of Riverview Park and will accommodate ten homes (two designed for Habitat for Humanity). The site was attractive for its proximity to Downtown Charlottesville Virginia and the public transit system. The project will preserve open space in the form of a common garden. A rain garden adjacent to the common garden will filter storm water as it moves across the site.

Hi Kelly!
Sorry! I was one of those 'old-timers' who didn't post on time. (I've added it now in the hopes that it's not too late). Personally I don't have a good excuse - I was just waiting to download my new pics, and then once I did, I got so obsessed with categorizing my pics on iphoto that I forgot to post it here!
But... I think the board tends to slow down on the weekend, so maybe at least a couple more days?

With Imp thunderclap slowing cast speed, would it make dragon breaths a long cast?
- Imp thunderclap also made it such that it wasn't just melee speed that was slowed but also casting speed.
- Vigilance was self-castable to help the toon itself take 3% less dmg.
- Spell Reflect actually reflected spells. This is probably my single biggest ability gripe in the game. I'm tired of having to test out and mentally catalog which boss abilities work with it and which don't.
Would the taunt mechanism still work with a self cast Vigilance?
And yes, Spell Reflect actually working would be awesome!

"This is a really good sauce. I used red and green bell peppers, left out the bouillon cube because of some other reviews and the saltiness, used dried parsley, fresh basil and didn't have any dark wine so I used White Zin. It was thick and the flavor was very good. I will definitely make this again."
"This is really good. Thanks for posting. I used whole grain macaroni and added a can of slicded mushrooms. Next time I'll top it with cheese. Yummy."

Breaking at pixel time — Reuters quoting an Italian government source that 'informal' Opec talks have begun on raising output if Libyan supply collapses (only for the Saudi oil minister to deny that Opec will consider extraordinary talks.)
Which is precisely what the supply has been doing (the country's gas exports aren't looking too hot either). Italy has every incentive to do something about it of course, given its ample Libyan exposure in both resources.

The first Justin retained a former name, and the second Justin was named after the first.
(IX-228: dp. 3,381; l. 441'6"; b. 56'11"; dr. 27'11"; s. 11 k.; cpl. 210; a. 13", 1 5", 3 20mm.; T. EC2-S-C1)
The second Justin (IX-228), formerly liberty ship Gus W. Darnell, was built by Todd-Houston Shipbuilding Corp., Houston, Tex., in 1944; operated as a cargo ship in the Pacific; was acquired by the Navy 2 September 1945; and commissioned at Guiuan Roadstead, Philippine Islands 4 September 1945, Lt. William T. Hamilton in command.
Justin departed for Shanghai, China, 20 October where she embarked naval passengers for transport to the United States. She picked up a cargo of 3,000 bags of mail at Guam before arriving San Francisco 23 December 1945. Justin decommissioned at San Francisco 23 January 1946 and was turned over to the WSA. She was placed in the National Defense Reserve Fleet at Suisun Bay, Calif., until being sold 25 May 1954 to Boston Metals Corp. and scrapped.

Green Wheels: Presidential Debates, Fast Charging, A123 and More
I have to sleep sometime, and when I do I miss something. The auto industry is always throwing curve balls at me, and I spend a lot of time keeping them all in the air as I try to be a one-stop car reporter. First, let's talk about the Presidential election.
I watched the second debate, and it was fascinating to see Obama and Romney square off almost immediately on the auto bailout. You may have forgotten by now, but General Motors and Chrysler almost went under in 2008. Obama, who bailed them out, fired this: "You know, when Governor Romney said we should let Detroit go bankrupt, I said, 'We're going to bet on American workers and the American auto industry,' and it's come surging back."
Romney, who had penned a New York Times op-ed headlined "Let Detroit Go Bankrupt," was ready for that one. "My plan was to have the company go through bankruptcy like 7-Eleven did and Macy's and Continental Airlines and come out stronger," he said. The problem with that simplistic formulation is this: the only thing that could saved the companies then was an infusion of public funds, because the private equity market wasn't up to the job.
Obama got in a zinger on this: "[Romney] wanted to take them into bankruptcy without providing them any way to stay open, and we would have lost a million jobs." There isn't another way of looking at the situation as it existed in 2008.
OK, enough about that. I had thought that the second debate would have been enlivened by exchanges about the bankruptcy of the Massachusetts-based and Obama-supported A123 battery company, which could be said to be the other shoe to fall after solar producer Solyndra's flameout. But it didn't happen, partly because A123—which supplied General Motors, Fisher, Smith Electric and others—had bipartisan support. George W. Bush gave the company money, too, and many Republicans are on record as supporting the company, whose technology was developed at MIT and is enhanced by nanotechnology.
Another problem for the "Obama is shoveling money to clean tech companies that go bust" scenario is that big battery company Johnson Controls bought A123's assets for $125 million and will keep the doors open at its two Michigan plants. Shuttered factories make great political backdrops, but it's not happening in this case.
And also last week, the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) finally approved a fast-charging standard for the U.S. This is critical if electric cars are going to achieve liftoff. Fast charging happens at 480 volts, and it get a fully depleted EV back on the road in 30 minutes. It's the kind of charging that will thrive at places you stopover on the way home: supermarket and mall parking lots, for instance.
