Old River Park Swimming Pool
The lucky kids who had a parent who worked for National Cash Register in Dayton, Ohio pretty well had their summer fun assured among the thousands beating the heat in the two-acre swimming pool or canoeing through the peaceful waters of the 1.5-mile lagoon.
Old River was the vision of Colonel Edward Deeds, president and board chairman, who began his career under the tutelage of NCR founder John H. Patterson. Deeds had assisted Patterson in acquiring the farms and other parcels of land that became Hills & Dales Park, and he took to heart his mentor's philosophy on the importance of employee recreation. Deeds resigned from NCR in 1915, and Patterson donated Hills & Dales to the city in 1918. After Deeds rejoined NCR as Chairman in 1931, he decided that NCR employees should have another park where they could go with their families to relax and enjoy the out-of-doors.
The Depression years of the 1930s were hardly an ideal time to embark on the construction of an elaborate employee recreation facility, and doubtless many of his colleagues must have wondered if his age wasn't catching up to him. But the Colonel, a unique combination of visionary and pragmatist, took advantage of a tricky union negotiation to find the funds needed to carry out his grand scheme. Deeds offered to build a recreation park if the employees would settle for a few cents less on the hour. They agreed, and Deeds proceeded to make good on his promise. Because they contributed so much to its funding, many employees over the years would refer to Old River as "Bonus Park."
In 1937, Deeds brought in the bulldozers. Swampland was drained, the low areas filled and seeded, and the old river bed combined with new excavation to make a lagoon. Very quickly, under the direction of Olmsted Brothers, world-famous landscape architects who designed New York's Central Park, the debris-littered acreage in NCR's backyard was transformed into one of the nation's model industrial recreation parks. Its scenic beauty was also designed to enhance Patterson Boulevard, which by 1938 was being improved as an impressive southern gateway to the city. Because the park was built partially on the former bed of the Miami River, Deeds named it "Old River." It opened to NCR employees and their families on June 3, 1939.
The large, round swimming pool with its tall center tower had a capacity of 1.5 million gallons of water and was used by as many as 6,000 bathers per day. The construction of the bathhouse continued a longtime NCR tradition, dating back to Patterson's day, of being able to complete a building almost overnight. The company took great pride in the fact that the bathhouse was put under roof in only eleven and a half working days and was completed in thirty-six and one-half working days. The pool was fed with warm water from the NCR Powerhouse. Water from the pool then flowed into the lagoon.
The 33-acre park, completed in 1939, was once open only to NCR employees, retirees and their families. It was closed by NCR in 1998 in a cost-saving move. NCR demolished the park's historic pool at that time, which will not reopen.
Reopened as a public park in 2009.

Challenge 3567: 'Shipping
Fandom has created names for common pairings (Spuffy, Spander, Bangel, McShep, etc.) which has led to some confusion, especially in crossover fics, where those words may actually be a characters name... so why not take advantage of it and create a story with a weird double meaning?
Let's see a River/Jayne fic starring Ethan Rayne, a Xander/Tara fic starring Zara Zatanna, etc.

Challenge 3452: It just raises questions...
Okay, imagine you're in a fairly committed heterosexual relationship when, for whatever reason, you transform physically - body/voice only (maybe with a different accent) - into your partner's double. You'd be stuck like that anywhere from a week to a month. Question is, would your relationship survive the experience?
Remember, only one partner out of a two-person heterosexual couple can transform, no simply switching bodies... So, let's put some crossfandom couples through the wringer.

Something I haven't seen here before... Very simply, take any female character that is an 'identical stranger' (twin/cousin/clone/whatever) to one of the Buffy/Angel gang and make her a Slayer.

Willow's face: American Pie/How I Met Your Mother
Cordelia's face: Veronica Mars/See Jane Date
Dawn's face: EuroTrip/Six Feet Under

Okay, I've seen some 'Buffy's real father' stories that explain that Dawn was created from Buffy's blood, so they have the same dad, even if said father died years before Dawn was born. I've also seen stories where Joyce is actually Buffy's aunt, which complicates things further, especially with the monks messing around with memories.
What I would like to see is a 'Buffy's real father/family' story where the monks created Dawn as Buffy's fraternal twin. This will likely lead to complications such as Dawn and Buffy competing directly over men, which is cool :)

Question & Answers
Players regression?
I've noticed that my players are gradually getting weaker. Notably my pitchers. 3/5 of my pitchers have been barely able to throw over 80's for their 4-seems. When before they were hitting close to 90-94's. My season is barely mid-way through and this regression hits. Is this trying to promote getting new cards and not caring about statistics?
Answer from: mrblasto
I've noticed something similar. My pitchers' fastball speeds have dropped over the course of the 2014 season. However my batters have improved their power, are hitting more home runs, and the pitchers haven't lost their effectiveness when it comes to stopping the other team's offense.
When I started the season, my pitchers' 4-seamer speeds would match their power level, now it's about 5 - 8 mph less. But my team ERA has improved over the season. I can get batters out, I just can't strike them out. With a very fast pitcher I used to be able to strike out batters with an outside or high fastball, now they just take them for balls, so I have to mix my pitches up and settle for letting the fielders do the work.
To answer your question, I don't think it's to promote new cards as I've noticed the slow down even with new pitchers. For example a newly acquired Platinum Matt Harrison amped up to 119 power, has a 94 mph 4 seamer, a platinum Barry Zito in that range is even worse; but these are in line with their real abilities (Zito has one of the slowest fastballs in MLB). On the other hand, my Hero level Stephen Strasburg and Special level Justin Verlander both can throw 100mph+ fastballs, though not consistently. In fact Verlander can even do it after his stamina has dropped. This too is in line with their real abilities.
Other observations about pitcher's speeds is that conditioning seems to effect it. A pitcher whose condition level is down (the red negative numbers) isn't as fast as he is when the level is up or normal, even if power level is the same. As the pitcher's stamina decreases, so does the speed of his pitchers. Finally, as long as stamina is high, both increased power and control seem to paralyze the batters into outs. That's why I worry less about speed and more about control and endurance.

The Suisun Marsh
Suisun Marsh is the largest contiguous brackish water marsh remaining on the west coast of North America.
It is a critical part of the San Francisco Bay-Delta estuary ecosystem. Encompassing 116,000 acres, the
Suisun Marsh includes 52,000 acres of managed wetlands, 27,700 acres of upland grasses, 6,300 acres of
tidal wetlands, and 30,000 acres of bays and sloughs. It is home
to public waterfowl hunting areas and 158 private duck clubs. The Marsh encompasses more than 10% of
California's remaining natural wetlands and serves as the resting and feeding ground for thousands of
waterfowl migrating on the Pacific Flyway. In addition, the Marsh provides essential habitat for more
than 221 bird species, 45 animal species, 16 different reptilian and amphibian species, and more than
40 fish species. The Marsh supports 80% of the state's commercial salmon fishery by providing important
tidal rearing areas for juvenile fish allowing them to grow twice as fast as those reared in the upper
watershed, thus, greatly enhancing their survival. The Marsh's large open space and proximity to vast urban areas makes it
ideally suited for wildlife viewing, hiking, canoeing, and other recreation opportunities.
Federal, State Agencies Release Environmental Document on Suisun Marsh Habitat Management, Preservation, and Restoration Plan
The Bureau of Reclamation and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, in partnership with the California Department of Fish and Game, finalized a environmental document on the Suisun Marsh Habitat Management, Preservation, and Restoration Plan.
The Final Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (Final EIS/EIR) assesses a comprehensive 30-year plan designed to address use of resources within about 52,000 acres of wetland and upland habitats in Suisun Marsh near Fairfield, California. The focus of the plan is to achieve an acceptable multi-stakeholder approach to the restoration of tidal wetlands and the enhancement of managed wetlands and their functions.
Federal and State agencies prepared a joint Final EIS/EIR in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act and California Environmental Quality Act. The lead agencies have collaboratively prepared the environmental documents with the National Marine Fisheries Service, the California Department of Water Resources, and the Suisun Resource Conservation District.
The Final EIS/EIR is available online at US Department of the Interior.
If you encounter problems accessing the Final EIS/EIR online, please call the Reclamation Public Affairs Office at 916-978-5100 (TTY 916-978-5608) or e-mail email@example.com. For additional information or to request a copy of the Final EIS/EIR, please contact either Ms. Becky Victorine at 916-978-5035 (TTY 916-978-5608) or Ms. Sarah Swenty of the Fish and Wildlife Service at (916) 414-6571. Copies of the Final EIS/EIR may also be viewed at the Reclamation's Sacramento office at 2800 Cottage Way, Sacramento, CA, 95825
LocationSuisun Marsh is located in southern Solano County, California about 35 miles northeast of San Francisco. The marsh is bordered on the east by the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, on the south by Suisun Bay, on the west by highway 680, and on the north by highway 12 and the cities of Suisun and Fairfield.

Six people afflicted by Superstorm Sandy, as well as the daughter of a legislator who wrote the law creating the New Jersey Lottery, are among the 16 county garage workers who won a third of the recent $448 million Powerball national jackpot.
The group appeared at a news conference Tuesday in New Jersey. Most say they'll keep working.
But one, William Seeley, says he might retire to a log cabin on a large tract of land, to watch NASCAR races on TV.
Another, Barbara Jo Riivald, had forgotten her recently deceased father, state Sen. John Brown, wrote the law creating New Jersey's lottery.
A suburban Minneapolis man claimed one of the Powerball prizes last week. The holder of the third winning ticket, sold in South Brunswick, N.J., has not yet come forward.

I installed the Windows 32-Bit version. My computer also meets the system requirements (I think). I disabled User Access Control, and I disabled Data Execution Prevention for it. I have Windows Vista.
My specs:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo

[242] Carcinoma In Situ Involving Sclerosing Adenosis: Diagnostic Pearls To Aid the Practicing Pathologist.
Dana Richards, Alberto A Ayala, Lavinia P Middleton. UT MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX; Methodist Hospital, Houston, TX
Background: Involvement of pre-existing benign lesions by ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) or lobular neoplasia (LN) can present difficult diagnostic challenges, and can easily cause misdiagnosis and mismanagement when presented on core biopsy specimens. Our objective was to gather the largest case series of DCIS and LN involving sclerosing adenosis (SA), and to report the characteristic features of these lesions, in order to provide histologic criteria for the diagnostic pathologist.
Design: Our database was searched (1999 to 2010) for core biopsy material diagnosed as carcinoma in situ involving adenosis. Glass slides and pathology reports were reviewed. Cases were studied for salient features, and clinical follow-up was obtained.
Results: 31 cases of DCIS or LN involving SA were obtained (12 cases of DCIS, 19 cases of LN including LCIS and ALH).
Histomorphologic features commonly seen with DCIS or LN involving SA included lobulocentric architecture (31/31, 100%), myoepithelial cells visible by H&E at least focally (31/31, 100%), and separate areas of SA uninvolved by neoplasia (29/31, 93.5%). Features that were sometimes seen included hyaline basement membranes surrounding the lesion (14/31, 45.2%), DCIS/LN apart from the area of involvement by SA (16/31, 51.6%), and calcifications associated with DCIS/LN/SA (12/31, 38.7%). Uncommonly seen features included desmoplasia (6/31, 19.4%), dense inflammation (4/31, 12.9%), and single epithelial cells enveloped by flattened myoepithelial cells (6/31, 19.4%).
Of the ten cases of DCIS with known follow-up, four showed DCIS involving either SA or a complex SA on excision (4/10, 40%), four had only DCIS (4/10, 40%), one had DCIS with a small 1.8 mm focus of predominantly tubular carcinoma (1/10, 10%), and one showed invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) on excision (1/10, 10%). The latter case of IDC occurred in a patient who had a delay of three years from diagnosis to surgical resection. Of the eight cases of LN with surgical follow-up, seven had LCIS (7/8, 87.5%), and one showed fibroadenoma and SA with no residual LN in the excised specimen (1/8, 12.5%). No invasive carcinoma was identified in any of the resections for LN involving SA.
Conclusions: Lobular lesions involving SA were more common than ductal lesions. DCIS involving adenosis were best diagnosed by the low-power appearance. Immunohistochemical stains for myoepithelial cells were utilized only in particularly difficult cases. The presence of desmoplasia does not preclude the diagnosis of carcinoma in situ involving adenosis.

My sister got me hook on 212 and since I couldn't find it in the stores I thought I would have to find a different perfume, but glory and happy day when I started searching the internet and found this sight. Please don't stop selling 212. Love it and won't ever switch. And thank you to my sister Toni for introducing me to 212.

I really like 212 by Carolina Herrera. Since I discovered it years ago always use it during the warmer months. It smells so good without being overpowering. Get a lot of compliments to the point that some of my friends have bought if for themselves so much they liked it on me. Also get compliments from men and believe it or not strangers on the street or in a store have mentioned how good I smell.

DNP vs MD: Which route is better for public health? - page 2
Hello all! I have posted here a few times regarding nursing and medicine, and after my last thread, I thought I had ultimately made a decision between the two. I had decided to pursue an MD and until the past week or so, felt no... Read More
- 0Aug 25, '11 by DNS on the goIf you have the opportunity and the resources, please go straight to Medicine. Medicine is a more difficult route in that their is no part time training and residency is a killer. As a MD you have all the options you want, just pay your dues up front (4 years college, 4 years Med school and residency/internship training). Nursing is more flexible in how you train, is a lower cost training and you can be an NP with a master's degree.
If you are doing well with the pre med classes, go through and get into med school. You also have to think about getting married and having babies. Once you have done med school, you will still have time for this. If you go the nursing route and then decide later to go to med school, you may not have the option with a husband and kids, bills etc.
My advice as a career nurse is go for medicine. You are young (youth fades quickly) and have brains-go for the prize. As a doctor, you call the shots and can practice as you like. As a nurse or a NP you will spend your career under someone's thumb.
As an MD you will have more credibility and if you wish to go into public health arena as a local health commissioner or health department official, you will have a greater chance of getting these jobs and advancing. An MD degree opens up so many doors while a nursing degree is vocational training and does not have the clout or prestige. I worked in a major teaching hospital that trained both MD and RN/NP's. The opportunity available to you and the places you can go are limitless with an MD. Go for the prize.

Historical Traveller Reviews of Lebua at State Tower Hotel
Great small luxury hotelfrom charliemee
I would agree with many of the points mentioned in the previous review.
All the rooms at the hotel are suites with some excellent views of the river. The food and service at the breakfast buffet is excellent and caters for all tastes whether it be american, thai or japanese.
We made a reservation at the Sirocco restaurant on the 64th Floor, Fantasic food, great service and excellent views. Quite expensive for Thailand prices but a similar restaurant in the UK would cost double the price. Definately recommend this restaurant for a romantic dinner.
Having read the previous review i feel that i need to comment on the noise? We stayed for 3 nights and most of our time was spent viewing the sites but when in the room we had no problem with noise from the surrounding rooms.
We stayed at the hotel from the 10th Aug - 13th Aug and our room was stocked with Bvlgari toileteries.
I would also agree with the previous reviewers comments about the general manager, Patrick Joyce. We were fortunate enough to meet him in the elevator and we had a good chat about what to do in bangkok, this continued in the foyer of the hotel and he escorted us to our waiting shuttle bus. We also informed him that we were moving on to the AKA resort in Hau Hin, he told us he knew the manager at this resort. Cannot be sure but when we arrived at the AKA the manager personally took us to our upgraded deluxe spa pool villa. Check out our review for the AKA!
My wife has very high standards in terms of service and cleanliness in hotels and for our 3 nights she did not complain once. So thank you Lebua for making my holiday hassle free!
So once again credit must go to the quality of maid service.
This was our first time to Thailand and we found the staff at the Lebua to be fantastic. I would certainly recommend this hotel.
This hotel is a hidden small boutique hotel in Bangkok, albeit in the state tower which is 64 floors. The hotel is from the 51st - 64th floor.

Extended stay at Le Buafrom Khun_Ling
I'll start with the good points.
First, most rooms have excellent views of the river. The food at the breakfast buffet is also excellent, though the restaurant tended to get crowded at weekends. Fortunately, the breakfast buffet runs till 11 am on Saturdays and Sundays (and to 10:30 am all other days), so you can sleep in a bit and still have time for breakfast.
The concierge staff were very helpful. One staff member even took me on a walking tour of the sois at the rear of the hotel so that I would know where to find the best and cheapest street food.
The beds at Le Bua are worth mentioning as well; they are enormous and extremely comfortable. And I found the chairs and sofas agreeable, too. Finally, the many high-intensity light fixtures in the guestrooms means that those who wish to read or work in the room will not have to strain their eyes.
Now for the bad points. My biggest complaint is that the walls separating the guestrooms are very poorly insulated -- I could hear my neighbor's every move. If he was watching television, I could hear it through the walls. If he was having sex, I could hear that, too. If he was using the toilet...well, you get the idea.
I was on a wroking vacation and I found the noise from my neighbor's room made it impossible for me to concentrate on my work. Fortunately, the General Manager, Patrick Joyce, moved me to a different floor and ensured that the rooms on either side of me remained vacant for the duration of my stay.
A second shortcoming of the hotel's is that the restaurant played elevator music during breakfast. I found this to be annoying, but to my delight, Mr Joyce took my advice and changed the music to something slightly better than elevator music.
One final complaint: Le Bua has replaced its wonderful Bulgari toiletries with a generic collection of products that are similar to those you'd find in a Red Roof Inn in the United States. I'm not sure why Le Bua decided to cut corners in this way, but if enough guests complain, perhaps the Bulgari toiletries will be brought back.
What does this all mean? Well, I have visited Bangkok some 36 times in the past 12 years and I have stayed at the Peninsula 22 times, the Oriential 10 times, the Shangri-La 3 times and the Holiday Inn Silom one time. Le Bua compares favorably with each of them. And best of all, it is significantly less expensive (for now, at least).
I was especially impressed with the accessiblity of the General Manager, Patrick Joyce -- he gives guests his cell number and his e-mail address. And he personally responds to all queries.
What a pleasant change from the aloof and arrognat General Managers at some other Bangkok hotels!
In short, I highly recommend Le Bua. But bring your earplugs.
This is the place to stay!from gatorgirl123
The hotel is on the 51-64 floors with an amazing restaurant and bar on the 64th floor. We didn't have reservations, but since it was off season we were able to get a table inside for dinner and then finished our bottle of wine at the outdoor bar overlooking the City. AMAZING!! If you know you are going to stay there.. book a table outside. It is pricey, but worth it for a special occasion!
The rooms are huge... a sitting room, full kitchen, and seperate bedroom. The staff was very helpful and had a taxi waiting for us at 5am to get us to the airport! Breakfast was also included, but since we left so early we missed it......
Go ahead... book it! You will really enjoy it .......
5-star quality bed!!from lysach
For me, the most important thing of a hotel is the bed. lebua has the most comfortable bed: high quality bedding (probably 400+ threads!), duvet covers, and down pillows and comforters. Compare this with the usual white hospital bedsheets wrapped over polyester quilts!
The rooms are comtempory and welcoming. The view is excellent, overlooking Bangkok from different directions. Too bad the balcony doors are permanently locked due to safety regulations.
Service is top notch! The reception desk is friendly, and the concierge and bellboys anticipate what you will say before you actually say it. For example, we were going out to shop around the neighborhood, and the bellboy not only greeted us but also recommended the nearby department store.
And lastly, remember to try the croissants at the breakfast buffet! Delicious!
If you are used to 5 stars - stay somewhere else !from Elysia
The staff, although plentiful, lack training and finesse.
The room is large - but lacks any warmth or feeling of luxury. The lounge area to the back of the room has no natural light and I doubt anyone would want to linger in this space. The bathroom (in the middle of the two spaces) was ordinary - although it did feature Bulgari products. There was mould evident in the shower areas.
The large king bed enjoyed the view being close to the window and the "balcony", however, the doors were locked and access denied. Two package air conditioning units were located on the balcony. The room was freezing.
I was also quite shocked that the door to the room did not have an automatic door closer on it. I doubt that this conforms to any fire regulation - even in Thailand. It made me feel extremely vulnerable in this high rise tower.
I don't know why Small Luxury Hotels have agreed to include this property in their portfolio.
The room rate was low - at around USD$100 a night. If you are used to staying in one or two star hotels - then you might enjoy the Lebua. If you are used to five star properties - forget it.
Loved it loved it loved it!from MidgeCork
Impressivefrom janepost
FOOD: Breakfast is average. But the food at Sirocco is superp! Six stars dining indeed.
SERVICE: Most staffs are nice. Except for a female fitness staff who behaved unprofessionally. And the check-in/check-out staffs on the 51st floor never coordinates with other departments, as follows:
- They did not inform the guests in advance that the fitness/pool/jacuzzi were closed during my stay. One of them said the facilities were open, while the other said a different thing.
- They did not tell me that the balcony was locked up permanently due to some restrictions. What's the point for going up high and does not have a chance to go out to the balcony?
- Room service is slow. Have to wait like 20 min for each request (more shampoo, more towel, and mini-bar check)
Anyway, the pluses are:
- They offered to change the room that has better view (I would like to see the fireworks that celebrates the King's Coronation to the Throne)
- They guaranteed a table at the Sirocco and other restaurants (though not smoothly -- at first they said i could have the table at 10 p.m.)
- The singer and Sirocco band. Nice music. Beautiful songs and improvisation.
LOCATION: Good view of the river (with best value room), but not ideal if you want to explore the area on foot cuz, i dunno, the area is a bit deserted in my experience.
Overall -- four stars = )
Good hotel and location, but service needs improvementfrom Rosamund
However I find the concierge service quite bad, they are not very helpful when we ask them to find a taxi for us.
wonderful hotelfrom A TripAdvisor Member
Great Place to stay in..from blueyedboy
In a nutshell...a very good place to stay in if you are a tourist, honeymooner or couple. They pamper you too too much and take too too much care of you. Apart from the very friendly staff and the superb view from 50+ floors, the hotel offers an overall budget stay of a 4 star at 5 star facilities.
Top Local Tips for Bangkok
Longboat trip, dos and donts Definitely book a tour on the river and canals with a longboat. Not one of the large tourist shuttles. Take aprivate guide to show you around. Walking works verry well in Bangkok when it is not too hot during the day. You will see a lot. The Patpong area is not even interesting for red light tourists anymore .. just ignore. The same applies for the Flaoting market. A tourist trap and nothing else.
Great taxi service :) Mr. Nattapong was a great driver. He took us to Pattaya safely and more imortantly, inexpensively! :) Telephone number: 081 773 8771
Taxis & tuk tuks Take a taxi from the hotel if going out as the driver will use his meter. It will be a different story coming back as the meters move very slowly-we couldn't believe how little a taxi from the hotel cost and comimg back the taxi driver won't take you if you insist on him using the meter. You have to agree a price beforehand-it will probably be about three times the cost of the journey in a taxi from the hotel. Beware tuk tuks, the drivers do not take you where you want to go- if you want to eat they will ignore the restaurant you asked for & take you somewhere else belonging to a relative or friend & when we asked to be taken to the railway station we ended up at a travel agent who tried to sell us an expensive tday our when we just wanted an ordinary return train tciket.

Is anyone dressing up for Halloween either for a party or to be festive?

Will you incorporate your belly into your costume idea? What are your plans?
|Thu, 10-04-2012 - 11:07am
Oh my! I haven't even thought of this yet! I'll probably just wear a Halloween shirt to pass out candy. I won't get to go trick or treating with the boys this year due to the moderate bedrest and restrictions. We should all post pictures of ourselves on Halloween!

I'm hosting a Halloween party with a bunch of family members and a few friends. I researched pregnant costumes online and have narrowed it down to 3 possibilties (depending on which one I can get my husband to cooperate with!). The first one is: I'll dress as a 'white trash' guy with a beer belly (wife beater shirt, jeans, boots, mullet wig)....my husband would dress as a woman in a moo-moo or whatever (doubt I can get him to do that!). The other is I'll dress as an angel with a sign that says, "The devil made me do it." ...husband would obviously dress as a devil. Or my last option is ...the oh-so-popular pregnant cheerleader with husband as the football player.
So we'll see...maybe I'll find another idea before I decide!
|Fri, 10-05-2012 - 11:17am
We usually throw a big Halloween party but not sure I'm up to it this year. I guess we really need to discuss it. I'm thinking of wearing all black, getting spider earrings, fake webbing to drape on myself and attach those plastic spiders all over it. Then I will look into some of those face stickers that look like webbing and do my eyes up like this:
I love Halloween! Not really incorporating the belly but still fun!

My birthday is 2 days before halloween, so i am super festive for the holiday! This year I'm going to be an oven with a bun in it, and my hubby is going to be a chef . I always wanted to do that cosume if I was pregnant for halloween. I was thinking of putting a bow or a bowtie on the bun if its a boy or a girl, but I find out on the 29th (my birthday ) and if I go anywhere in costume itll probably be over the weekend before I know....

Like millions of Americans, my first job was working at a fast-food restaurant for the minimum wage, or $3.35 an hour at the time. Like millions of Americans, that was also the first and last time I earned the minimum wage.
The truth is that among workers over age 25, less than one percent are earning the minimum wage. Why? The more we learn, the more we earn. The average income of minimum wage employees increases 30 percent within one year of employment.
But some people want more. Several national and local groups are working to place a minimum-wage increase on Arizona's 2006 ballot. Tucson attorney Bob Schwartz, chairman of Arizona's "Five Fifteen Isn't Working," has filed a constitutional amendment with the secretary of state that reads in part: "All working Arizonans are entitled to be paid a minimum wage that is sufficient to provide a decent and healthy life for them and their families." It's time, he says, to "put an end to slave wages."
A minimum wage increase will put an end to one thing: jobs. Wishful thinking won't change the laws of supply and demand. If employees become more expensive, we'll have fewer people working. Consider the admonition of Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan: "The reason I object to the minimum wage is I think it destroys jobs, and I think the evidence on that, in my judgment, is overwhelming."
We all start somewhere. An opportunity to work is better than no opportunity at all.

Update: Biggest Drawing in the World (using GPS and DHL)
It's been confirmed as a hoax, as many commenters suggested.
But after bloggers pointed out holes in Nordenankar's claim, DHL confirmed to the Telegraph that the artwork was an "entirely fictional project".
A spokeswoman said they had allowed him to film in their Stockholm warehouse as part of a college project, on the understanding that the work went no further than his art school. The GPS package was never sent around the world.
DHL now intends to contact Nordenankar to get him to clarify the origins of his work on his website.
- The Telegraph (UK)
—- original post 5/22/08———
The story goes this was a student's final art project, a self-portrait. He sent a GPS device in a suitcase in a preplanned route around the via specifically selected routes. Those routes were traveled in 55 days by DHL.
Some speculate DHL is behind the viral story.

Congratulations to the 2013 World Series Champions – the Boston Red Sox. Apropos, I was in an Irish pub last night when the final out was recorded and then Sweet Caroline by Neal Diamond was heard throughout. Some final thoughts on the 2013 post season follow.
The Red Sox hit .211 in the Series, the lowest for a champion since the 1974 Athletics also hit .211. The Cardinals weren't much better hitting .224 with a .572 OPS over 201 at-bats. Talk about a lack of hitting. If we remove each teams best performer – Big Papi and Allen Craig – the two teams hit a combined .190 (69 for 363).
The Red Sox clinched a Series at home for the first time since 1918 when Babe Ruth came in as a late inning defensive replacement in the outfield (he was still a pitcher at the time).
The Red Sox are the second team to go from last place one year to champions the next. The other was the 1991 Twins of Minnesota.
The Red Sox have eight championships, the fourth moth ever. Those ahead of them: Yankees (27), Cardinals (11) and Athletics (8). That's right, if you add together teams 2-4 they've only won one more championship than the Yankees.
Stephen Drew was in a 4-for-50 tailspin in the playoffs, he looked every bit as bad as that sounds, before clubbing a homer off Wacha to help break the game open. You never know what you might seen when you watch a baseball game.
John Lackey is the only hurler to start and win a World Series deciding game for two clubs (the Sox and the Angels in 2002). He finished the post season with a 2.77 ERA over 26 innings in a remarkable turn around effort. What, you forgot that in 2012 he may have been the worst pitcher in baseball with a 6.41 ERA, 1.62 WHIP and .308 BAA over 160 innings?
David Ortiz won the MVP. His .760 OBP was the 2nd best in Series history behind the .800 mark of Billy Hatcher in 1990. He can thank his four walks in Game 6 for helping that number out and Big Papi reached base in 19 of his 25 plate appearances. Only Barry Bonds ever got on base more (21 out of 30 plate appearances in 2002). Ortiz also hit .353 with a .500 OBP and .706 SLG in the playoffs including a .688/.760/1.188 OPS in six Series games. Oh yeah, his .688 Series AVG was also second in series history to Hatcher who hit .750 in 1990.
Did Koji Uehara just complete the best season of relief pitching ever? Not hyperbole folks. Check out the numbers. During the regular season he had a 1.09 ERA, 0.57 WHIP, 12.22 K/9 and 11.22 K/BB ratio (74.1 innings). In the post-season he was just as good: 0.66 ERA, 0.51 WHIP, 10.53 K/9, and he didn't walk a single batter in 13.2 innings so we can't even give an accurate K/BB ratio (he had 16 strikeouts). Add it all up and that 88 innings with an 11.96 K/9 mark, a 13.0 K/BB ratio, a 1.02 ERA and 0.56 WHIP. That's just crazy talk but it's all true.
Shane Victorino hit .216 with a .647 OPS in the playoffs yet he still drove in 12 runs in 14 games. I know. Somehow a guy who never has had more than 69 RBIs in a season has 42 RBIs in 60 post-season games.
Michael Wacha had produced a 1.00 ERA in four playoff victories before losing Game 6. He allowed six runs in 3.2 inning in the game after he had allowed, literally, half as many runs in his first four starts. It was a cold night, but the youngster was in the low 90's with the heater after routinely hitting the mid to upper 90's with it previously in the post-season.
Finally, don't forget to have a happy Halloween. Here's a link to the 10 movies that I think should be on your list of spooky flicks to watch on All Hallow's Eve.

Heather Locklear reemerged this week in New York -- and she was looking better than she has in years!
Sporting a slim physique and a line-free, flawless face, the 49-year-old looked happy and healthy as she made her way into a Manhattan hotel on Friday morning.
While she's always looked good, check out the difference just one month made in the gallery above!
Although Heather looks younger, IMO she doesn't look like Heather. She has always been a beautiful woman. I guess she would rather look younger even if she looks like a different person.
I think that Heather had alot of work done. She looks exactly like she did when she was younger. It doesn't look like she lost alot of weight, probably about 5 or 10 pounds. She was pretty the way she was. Age gracefully Heather!
In one of those photos she looks like another Heather......Heather Mills....ewwwwwie..!!
