iPad Revisited: 5 Topics for Publishers to Consider
By Samir Kakar, CTO, Aptara
In April, we wrote about the possible implications of Apple's then just-released iPad. Sixty days and two million units later (that's one sold every 3 seconds), the new tablet device has undoubtedly changed the publishing industry's focus on eBooks, but whether it's the catalyst for a permanent shift remains to be seen.
So let's examine the topics we feel are most important in arming publishers for the new media opportunities afforded by the iPad.
1. eBooks vs. Apps
Before the iPad, most publishers were content to produce basic eBooks for the plethora of devices available. Now, however, many seem to feel that apps developed specifically for a particular publication might be better. App development is more costly than eBook production, since it involves custom programming; they're also not portable between platforms (e.g. iPad and Android), meaning additional development costs for multi-device support.
The dilemma facing publishers is whether the on-screen presence that an app provides is worth the cost, versus simply being an eBook in the iBookstore. There are now over 225,000 apps available in the App Store, approximately 8,500 of which are dedicated to the iPad. It will be difficult for publishers to differentiate their apps within such a large ecosystem, although some print-based apps have broken through (e.g. The Elements, Alice, Wired Magazine).
2. Enhanced eBooks
Along with the eBook vs. App discussion, a great deal of attention is being paid to the topic of enhanced eBooks. What constitutes "enhanced" is subjective. In general, enhanced eBooks include functionality beyond simple page turning, such as annotation and dictionary lookup. They might include links to websites, or embedded or linked audio and video. Developers such as Aptara have methods for enhancing eBooks based on the ePUB standard using HTML5, which allows audio and video to be included within an eBook and played/displayed without leaving the iBooks app. The upcoming release of iPhone OS 4.0 (now known as iOS4, to include the iPad and possible future devices) will also make enhanced eBooks simpler to use, since multiple apps can be open at one once (although only one can be fully active).
3. The Common Platform
The iPad has become a common platform for other eBook retailers to sell their products. Amazon, Barnes & Noble and Kobo, among others, have released apps that allow iPad users to purchase, store and read their proprietary eBooks. This is an interesting strategy since the aforementioned booksellers also have individually branded eBook reading devices. Industry analysts will be watching to see whether the creation of multi-platform apps will increase eBook sales without significantly cannibalizing sales of reading devices.
As a side note, Borders has also jumped into the eBook reader market, but instead of marketing their own reading device, they are selling several different devices with various price points. And Google will be launching Google Editions shortly which promises eBooks that are stored in the cloud and can be read anywhere, on any device with a browser.
4. ePUB Update
The IDPF (International Digital Publishing Forum) has chartered a working group to update the ePUB standard to allow for more functionality and interchange of eBook data. There are 14 main improvements that the working group is tasked to address including language support, enhanced support of metadata, rich media, navigation, mathematics, annotation, and interactivity. The working group is chartered through May 2011 with drafts due to be released between September and December 2010.
At this point, the devices/platforms are several steps ahead of the ePUB standard in terms of functionality. Hopefully, the next version will enable standardized ways to create enhanced publications (books, newspapers, magazines, etc.) across devices and eliminate the need to develop proprietary extensions.
5. Getting eShelf Space
Many medium and small publishers continue to encounter barriers in getting access to the various eBook stores. There are many reasons, including exclusivity requirements and revenue sharing agreements, to name a couple. These publishers are looking for partners to assist them not only in preparing eBooks, but also in getting them into online outlets. Some outlets are looking to aggregators to act as intermediaries between themselves and smaller publishers and self-publishers. As more and more online outlets emerge, the role of these aggregators will increase, possibly creating a new service category within the eBook publishing industry.
How Far We've Come… in Just Two Months
Below are updates on some of the statements and speculations we made immediately following the iPad's launch:
- "It appears that Apple's iPad can provide a one-stop-shop solution to content publishers through their online store, reader software and DRM − which can only serve to simplify mobile content delivery."
While it is true that content publishers do have a new market outlet, it resembles Amazon's and Barnes & Noble's. Whether delivery is simpler still remains to be seen.
- "Aptara is in the process of examining the iPad SDK (software development kit) to fully understand the iPad's impact on eBook applications. We will keep you updated as our evaluation continues and we have more information to share."
Aptara is now helping publishers bring their content to life by developing interactive iPad apps, as well as enhanced eBooks for the iPad (and other eReaders and smart phones). In fact, some of the most successful apps being produced, by Aptara and others, are those based on content that had previously appeared only in print. See above for more information on eBooks vs. Apps vs. enhanced eBooks.
- "Some have predicted that the iPad may be the textbook of the future. Until Apple releases more details about the capabilities of the iBook and iBookstore it's hard to know for sure what the possible applications might be."
Many educational institutions have ordered iPads for their staff and students, including Illinois Institute of Technology, Seton Hall University, George Fox University and Abilene Christian University. These institutions are being closely watched to gauge whether the iPad is indeed the textbook of the future (some of these universities previously attempted to integrate the iPhone and iPod Touch into classes, with varying degrees of success). The hope is that the iPad's larger screen will enhance learning aids and therefore the learning experience.
In comparison, a previous study to evaluate the Kindle DX at Princeton found that regardless of the form factor, "learning comes from a physical interaction with the text: bookmarks, highlights, page-tearing, sticky notes and other marks representing the importance of certain passages — not to mention margin notes".
Speed was also an issue with the Kindle. While the iPad is fast, has a color screen, and thousands of apps, its iBook reader does not support most forms of physical interaction just described. (NOTE: At the recent WWDC 2010, Steve Jobs announced updates to the iBooks app that will allow for bookmarks, highlighting and notes, as well as for support of PDF within iBooks. The iBooks app will also be available on any device capable of supporting iOS4, including the iPad, iPhone 4, iPhone 3G and 3GS, 2nd/3rd generation iPod Touch.)
Other reader apps do provide some of these abilities, but cannot open the Apple DRM files. Some eTextbook apps are starting to emerge, but are priced based on a limited-time subscription. Once the subscription expires, the book is no longer available, though personal notes are.
The bottom line is that the iPad's app capability presents an incredibly large and clean slate for exploring how static content can be brought to life as new and powerful learning aids, though apps are significantly more expensive and less portable than converting textbooks to e/iBooks. This reality, combined with the results of the Universities' testing, will significantly influence the ultimate use case for iPads in schools.
- "Undoubtedly one of the most promising aspects of the iPad announcement is their impending growth in size and scope of the eBook market − thanks to the power of the Apple brand."
There is no question that the eBook market has many new entrants (consumers and publishers) thanks to Apple's new device. After just two months, more than 5 million eBooks had been downloaded from the iBookstore.
So Where to From Here?
As Bob Dylan said, "The Times They Are a-Changin'." The publishing industry is evolving before our eyes on several fronts (devices, standards, business models, etc.). Who could have predicted the rate of adoption and change we've witnessed in just the past two months? The next few months will likely be a continuum
Bring your seat forward, put your tray table up, ensure that your seat belt is securely fastened, and enjoy the ride!

Great article.
I did want to point out that you can make apps or 'AppBooks' and distribute to multiple platforms like Apple, Android and Blackberry using one of the cross platform development tools available. They are portable if you make them in this way.
But I imagine that in the not too distant future that the features available for Books as apps and ebooks will converge as you suggest.
Good overview, Samir. Regarding the disappointing Kindle DX experiment at Princeton and the new experiments happening with the iPad at various universities, I do think it's important that the device offers a way to do things that students expect to do with a physical book. Thus, students need to be able to highlight and attach notes to an electronic textbook just like they can with a physical one. This technology already exists in many iPhone apps and, as you note, will soon be available for the iPad. Various websites also offer this technology; we are working to incorporate it into our site. As you say, all of us in the educational publishing sector are watching the iPad experiments closely.

Thank you Samir
This is a very useful status report – one you can bet will be shared and read by many
Pingback: Some Reading Links….
Very good status quo overview, Samir. As the app developer community is honing its Objective C skills, I'd be very interested to hear more from you on how content providers can best avoid locking their content in an (albeit massive) proprietary channel, and take advantage of all other platforms that are available – most significantly Android – without having to re-invent the wheel. Perpaps in a future contribution
One way to make your apps cross-platform is to create them using HTML, CSS and Javascript and use PhoneGap (google it). The tools for doing this are getting better and better. It is the best solution to make your app and deliver it to multiple platforms, including iPhone and iPad. You can also easily create a mobile web app version of your app that is available on the internet.
More important than these five relatively reactive points are these 12 publisher digital content strategy points by Phil Spinelli. Just to cut through the noise. They can be seen here http://infogridpacific.typepad.com/using_epub/2010/06/surviving-the-transition-to-digital-publishing.html The technology development is a mechanical given. Apps, ePub, or anything else, it has to track current device capabilities, and the willingness of publishers to pay.
The future of digital content for publishers to stop thinking about formats and the games being played by Amazon, Apple and Google, et.al., and start thinking about getting their content into a digital content strategy that is ready for anything the world throws at them. Especially small and medium publishers.
From a publisher's perspective it doesn't matter what Steve Jobs or anyone else says, its what they do. The imperative is to get content ready for an uncertain digital future. It is going to be XHTML/XHTML5… there is nothing else on the horizon. And even if something else arrives, a coherent XHTML content strategy will ensure any publisher has the option of moving to whatever comes. Creating and distributing content in formats and apps today is not a digital strategy for even the next 12 months.

Foster dad took in the toughest kids
Waterhen mourns death of former bouncer
Al Neath took the violent foster kids no one could manage.
In the early 1980s, Neath set up a foster home along the Waternhen River, about 340 kilometres northwest of Winnipeg.
One kid arrived in handcuffs and leg manacles. Another kid, whom I met once at Al's place, punched his school principal in the face and broke his glasses. Another kid was alleged to have stolen 52 cars in one week. The majority of his kids suffered some degree of fetal alcohol syndrome. Some kids had been in 10 or 12 foster homes before he got them.
But as tough as the kids were, Al would tell you each one of them held onto the belief that one day their dad was going to show up and take them home.
That didn't happen. Al became the father figure those kids never had. He died Aug. 19, at age 62, after a brief illness.
Foster parenting didn't scare Al. A powerful man with an explosive temper and a heart as big as the wilderness at Waterhen, he was the top bouncer in Winnipeg in the 1970s alongside pal Ross Bonnyman. "They were formidable," said my brother, a rock musician in bars back then.
Al estimated he was in more than 400 fights with rowdy bar patrons. Ross and Al later formed a company that provided concert security for the top rock acts that played Winnipeg. Ross said their experiences as bouncers prepared them for fostering.
Al went on to work with kids with behavioural problems at Knowles Centre. There he befriended Justin Swandel, now the city's deputy mayor. Swandel and his family attended Al's funeral in Waterhen last week.
Swandel left Knowles to become a foster parent and convinced Al to give it a try. Al later encouraged his former bouncer partner, Ross, to do the same. Ross also took on the toughest kids but operated in Winnipeg. One kid attacked Ross with a machete. Another kid attacked him with a hockey stick. "It didn't go so well for them," Ross recalled, laughing.
Al was never politically correct. New kids often had to be taught to toe the line. The kid I mentioned earlier, who had punched his principal in the face, was mouthing off to Al the first day he arrived, calling him "a fat, bald-headed freak," and so on. Boom. The kid was on the ground so fast, his face pressed to the turf and his arms behind him in a full nelson. It was Al's way of telling a kid that all that crap the kid had been getting away with up to that point was now over. And it was.
Al once told me he was naturally "hyper-vigilant." He said that was someone who looks at you suspiciously once, then turns away, then turns back to look at you again. Most people don't look back the second time, he said.
There were manager types within government who wanted Al removed. When he broke a kid's arm using the submission hold described above, that just about ended his career. But enough people in government understood the difficulty of his task and appreciated the results.
In time, and with the tightening of foster-care regulations, he mostly used more passive submission holds. But he usually didn't have to. As strong as he was physically, he was even better at verbal jousting. You couldn't get the better of Al.
What amazed me is how Al's life was an open book to the kids. They were privy to everything going on in Al's life, and there was always a lot whirling around him. He was always fighting red tape or with some bureaucracy. He was that kind of guy. But he was also always advocating for the kids, firing off letters to politicians. He was a two-term mayor of Waterhen. He got the kids involved in all the outdoor stuff like canoeing, swimming, fishing, riding his horses and snowmobiling. (For other stories on Al Neath, see Free Press archives, May 15, 1995; May 18, 1982.)
Initially, people in Waterhen were alarmed this guy was bringing these kids into their community. He usually fostered four kids at a time. It didn't take long for the community to become his biggest supporter. If those kids didn't behave, they got a tongue-lashing at home and privileges revoked.
Al was divorced and never had kids of his own. Most of his foster kids kept in touch after they turned 18. One of the worst young offenders now runs a construction company in Kelowna, B.C. He flew in for Al's funeral. About a half-dozen of his former kids drove out. Several have gone on to become foster parents themselves. Just functioning within society is a victory for many of these kids. Most of his charges have done better than that.
His death may have been caused by blood poisoning, but many people suspect he had another stroke, worse than one a few years earlier. He was found passed out on his floor and never regained consciousness.
He called his place, 'Neath Northern Skies. He was imperfect and he was beautiful and he made everyone around him feel taller. For hardened foster kids that no one else wanted and that everyone had given up on, they found someone who understood them and loved them.
He will not be forgotten.

An open letter to the baggage
handlers and flight attendants of US Airways:
Dear Aviation Professionals of US Airways,
What the hell were you thinking? I'm talking
specifically to those baggage handlers and flight attendants who
sicked out Christmas weekend, snarling the entire air traffic
system and leaving holiday travelers stuck without their bags for
days. Merry Freakin' Christmas.
When American Airlines chief Donald Carty won
millions in concessions from his union employees back in 2002, only
to have his double-secret, bullet-proof pension plan outed to the
national media, we stood with the employees. Shame on
Carty, we said.
When United pulled the plug on its employee
pension plans, ANN was there, reporting the controversy on a
blow-by-blow basis.
When Northwest did the same, we clearly sided with
the employees.
But when you decided to stage a sick out -- and you know that's
exactly what it was -- on one of the busiest weekends of the year,
well, in our minds, that dog just won't hunt. You shot yourselves
in the collective butt -- and for what?
Did you honestly think your passengers would understand? How
would you like it if you were stuck in a terminal for hours on end,
standing in line after line to report your baggage missing, then
going to the hotel or Grandma's house with only the clothes on your
back? How would you have liked it when little Suzy and little
Johnny had nothing under the tree because you were in Charlotte and
your luggage -- with their gifts inside -- ended up in
Again, what were you thinking?
Nobody likes what's happening to US Airways and nobody likes
what's happening to the people who work for that troubled airline.
Nobody likes the idea of another round of concessions and nobody
likes the fact that your pensions have gone the way of the
But nobody likes the cheap shot you
dealt your passengers, your company and yourselves on Christmas
Day. We can certainly understand the frustration you feel, but your
sick-out was unprofessional and poorly thought out.
The US Department of Transportation is now conducting an
"expedited" investigation into your actions. The government wants
to talk with employees, managers and passengers to find out what
happened. The company has now threatened to fire you if you're
found out. If US Airways goes under, don't for a minute think other
airlines will line up to hire you -- they're in only a little
better position than you are.
We're sorry for the troubles you face. You didn't ask for your
company to go bankrupt -- twice -- and you certainly didn't ask to
have your salary cut -- again. But after a sick-out that could cost
you your jobs and force your airline to go under, we find it
increasingly difficult to sympathize with your plight.

Sunlight is totally free.After the initial capital outlay you won't be receiving a bill every month for the rest of your life from the electric utility.
Solar energy is produced by conducting the sun's radiation – a process void of any smoke, gas, or other chemical by-product.
Seda offers entrepreneurs a helping hand through business consulting, training and referrals to specialist service providers.
KeTTHA wants more energy users to take advantage of the incentives provided to reduce their cost of doing business and improve their competitiveness.
Residential property owners can earn an average of RM500 a month for over 21 years if they install a solar panel system in their homes and selling the ROI to Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB).
We appreciated the effort in preparing and coming up with first of its kind IEC 62446 testing services as requested by the client LGE.Your company had shown good effort in securing sufficient workforce and reliability with the testing conducted.We understand this will also be the future standard for many of the Malaysian installation and hope this will lead to more projects between us in the near future.
We wish to congratulate your company on the timely completion of your scope for the project Great Arowana Sdn Bhd -LV Electrical works for jungle land 990kWp Solar Farm Project Bentong Pahang.We take note of your efforts in catching up with our tight deadline and thank you for making this possible.We hope both parties can work again on other numerous opportunities and projects in the near future.

CPS releases 'Safe Passage' routes in school consolidation program

Some Chicago aldermen reacted with criticism, others with praise as Chicago Public Schools officials on Friday publicly released the routes they say will ensure the safety of thousands of kids walking unfamiliar sidewalks to their newly assigned schools when classes begin in less than three weeks.
Six hundred newly hired safety workers in yellow vests will be posted along the routes from the areas around closing schools to the welcoming schools.
"As a teacher and as a principal I know that a child shouldn't be sitting in my classroom or my school worried about whether or not they're going to get to and from school safely. They should be worried about whether they're going to pass my class," CPS CEO Barbara Byrd-Bennett told the Sun-Times.
School starts Aug. 26, but Byrd-Bennett is sure the newly hired employees will receive training and be in place by then.
"These routes will be ready Day One," she said.
She argues that CPS isn't starting from scratch. The new routes are part of a program that has already been in place in schools that needed it.
But to critics of the record school closings — which saw 48 elementary schools shuttered and nearly 13,000 children moved to new schools — it's simply not enough time.
"It's so unfortunate the way CPS always seems to do things at the last minute," said Chicago Teachers Union President Karen Lewis. "These are plans that should have been in place before they even announced school closings. I'm very worried about what's going to happen when schools starts . . . that safe passage isn't particularly safe."
Ald. Bob Fioretti (2nd) said he's seen flaws in the program.
When Fioretti met with CPS security chief Jadine Chou recently, she showed him three "Safe Passage" routes under consideration for Cather Elementary School on the West Side. Fioretti pointed out that one route went right through an intersection notorious for drug dealing. Fioretti says Chou told him only two routes would be finalized, and that she would ax the bad route.
"But lo and behold, yellow "Safe Passage" signs were erected along all three routes," Fioretti said. "One hand doesn't know what the other hand's doing right now."
Ald. Willie Cochran (20th) was asked Friday whether he's satisfied with the Safe Passage routes in his South Side ward, which has three school closings and one so-called "turn-around" school where the students stay in place, but all of the adults are replaced.
"No," he said. "In some very high-traffic locations, streets have not been marked adequately with appropriate signage in place to curb traffic and speeds."
"One route in particular—from Michigan [Ave.] to Calumet—is marked right in front of a construction site where Norfolk & Southern Railroad is doing construction. It's an absolutely dangerous site. I intend to be on the phone with CPS today to point those things out."
But Cochran said, "Overall, with the responsible teams that have been put in place to provide Safe Passage to children in the 20th Ward, I think they'll be able to deliver those services adequately."
Another alderman, Howard Brookins (21st), chairman of the City Council's Black Caucus, has only one school closing in his South Side ward: Garrett Morgan Elementary, and the plan he's seen looks solid.
Brookins said he was shown the Safe Passage route that Morgan students would be taking to their new school, Ryder Elementary, which is "less than two blocks away" from Morgan.
"Overall, I thought it was a sound plan and they said they would tweak it, if need be, going forward. At least in my ward, I think they're ready," Brookins said.
"There has been some nefarious activity around that school [Ryder] at night around Lowe Street. People hanging out on the street, purported drug sales. We put a camera up several years ago, and it seemed to calm down somewhat. But I told them that would be the street I would pay attention to as opposed to some of the other streets."
Brookins noted that, before Morgan opened, kids in the area went to either Ryder or Gresham elementary.
"Before the overcrowding, those were the two schools before kids went to naturally, so they're not walking a whole long way out of the way to get to the receiving school," he said.
Ald. Roderick Sawyer (6th) also has only one school closing in his South Side ward. It will force students at shuttered Yale Elementary to travel about five blocks to Harvard Elementary.
"The Safe Passage route that's posted is on main thoroughfares, and children typically don't take that route to school. Children wander. They walk through neighborhoods and side-streets," Sawyer said.
"My only concern is that children get to school safely, wherever they walk…I'm okay with it. Sometimes, I just wonder when we do something like that, are we saying the other routes are not safe?"
Ald. Walter Burnett (27th) said he hasn't had time to closely study Safe Passage routes for the three school closings in his West Side ward.
But he credited CPS with "putting forth a good effort" — by hiring "people from the community who know the kids" and are in a better position to protect them.
"In one instance, they may have a bus picking kids up and taking them from one area to the other because it's a little far," he said.
Burnett said he has not yet heard any complaints from parents about the Safe Passage routes. But, he's anticipating complaints.
"My main concern is the little babies going across the street because some of the streets are major streets, like Madison Street, Western," he said.
"Also going past some of those areas where you have some of our dysfunctional people who may just drink and hang out. I'm concerned about kids walking past them. What I've been encouraging is for them to hire some of the parents whose children go to the school who will just naturally make sure their kids are safe."
The City Council held a hearing Friday on the CPS budget, and the issue of safe passage issue came up, in light of the shuttered schools.
Ald. Scott Waguespack (32nd) warned those closed schools would end being "boarded up" and unsafe.
"You know what happens to boarded-up schools. They're dangerous — and Safe Passage is not gonna help," Waguespack said.
Chicago Police Supt. Garry McCarthy on Thursday echoed Byrd-Bennett's sentiments that officials aren't starting from scratch, saying: "It's not a new concept in the city of Chicago for school kids to cross gang lines on their way to school. Kids have been doing it for quite some time even when the schools were open. So this is really something we've been doing for a long time, we've gotten better at it over time."
Instead, police are looking at this as "an opportunity to really expand our community policing efforts," he said, adding that CAPS officers going door-to-door have signed up nearly 1,800 adult volunteers to help be eyes and ears along the "Safe Passage" routes.
Chou said her office talks to police every morning to determine potential hotspots that could require extra police patrols or a change in the "Safe Passage" route.
"We're very nimble on that," she said.
Chou says her troops will be prepared for the first day of school.
"We absolutely will be ready," she said.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel said all city departments will have an "oar in the water."
Emanuel recalled searing the importance of preparing the routes into the brains of his department heads at a meeting a few months ago: "I said, 'This is not Barbara's deal; every one of you are on the hook."
To any employees not taking it seriously, the mayor said he had a simple message: "You'll have me to deal with."
Other city agencies have in fact been busy, officials said.
To date, 14 buildings have been demolished and nine are on the list to be destroyed, more than 250 vacant lots have been cleaned, and more than 2,000 graffiti markings have been cleaned, among several other services, according to a city spokesman.
Parents will be getting calls and letters with more information, officials said.

SHERMAN, N.Y. — A town hall meeting was held in Sherman Tuesday evening to discuss the proposed seasonal closing of a county highway facility.
County officials want to move the Sherman operations to the county's two other facilities in Sheridan and Falconer during the summer construction season and reopen the Sherman facility for the snow plowing season. They say it would save taxpayers about $150,000.
But business owners questioned the effect it will have on the local economy.
"Its more than just dollars and cents. Its lives we are talking about. If I can't make a living, I've got to close. I have six employees I'm going to lose," said Dwayne Woods, a business owner.
"We will go back and evaluate the information we received tonight and we will go from there," said George Spanos, Chautauqua County Public Facilities Director.
If approved, operations could be consolidated by the start of the spring construction season.

New here....ttc @ 41
Find a Conversation
|Mon, 05-02-2011 - 5:06pm
Hi everyone,
I'm excited and nervous to be joining this board. I have been going back and forth about ttc but the fact is I really want another child.
|Thu, 05-05-2011 - 10:51am
I don't know anything about Mirena, sorry!! But wish you all the best ttc. I'm 41 too and hoping for another bundle of joy. I'll be thinking about you and sending positive vibes!
|Thu, 05-05-2011 - 12:10am
Wishing both you and your DH a lot of patience as you take on this TTC journey 8)
Not familiar with Mirena but I agree that it might take a while for your cycles to get back to normal- trust me it took me at least a year and a half / we were able to conceive earlier this year without IVF but it ended in a miscarriage too early on. But I'm not discouraged on TTC again, just start by getting healthy and follow up with hour RE. I'm 41 and DD is 20 and DS is 15!! Then I start thinking- look at Kelly Preston she had her baby at 48!!!
Hoping you get a BFP sooner than you expect!
|Wed, 05-04-2011 - 12:46am
Hello Val and welcome! Good luck on your TTC venture, sounds like you are able to conceive pretty easily which is a blessing, some of us have been at it for years. I wish you luck and look forward to getting to know you!
P.S. 41 is NOT old, I will be 44 this month and still think I am young enough to do this again! ;) I have 2 daughters, ages 14 and 11, my new husband has no children and we had a m/c last year, I am hoping to do this for him.
|Tue, 05-03-2011 - 3:48pm
It might take a few cycles for your body to get back into the swing of things after getting the Mirena out.
|Mon, 05-02-2011 - 5:39pm
Hi Val and welcome to the board. I think you will find a wealth of knowledge and some great friendships here. I am not familiar with the use of Mirena but I'm sure it will take a couple months for your cycles to get back to normal. Are you going to chart temps and use OPK's? We look forward to you joining us on the sometimes crazy journey.
Vickie, 42 w/ DS 19, twin DD 13 and 3 angels

Missing Belgrade man found dead
Published On: Mar 04 2013 03:57:08 PM MST
A Belgrade man who has been missing since early January has been found dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Richard Wilkins disappeared the night of January 7. He was 47 years old.
The Gallatin County Sheriff's Office found Wilkins' body about 50 yards from his car, parked in a field near Dry Creek Road and Cox Road.
An autopsy report found Wilkins died of a self-inflicted gunshot wound.

The federal sector hired 162,839 new federal employees nationwide and overseas
in 2013. Almost a third, 31 percent, were veterans. The
Department of Defense and the
Veterans Administration were the two largest
hiring agencies. The Affordable
Health Care Act includes over 100 new regulatory agencies and commissions and
more federal regulators will be needed to administer new EPA and OSHA
regulations and to manage the many other federal programs that have been
implemented by the current administration. Immigration reform will potentially
increase hiring of Border Patrol Agents and Customs Officers. Even with the
projected growth and hiring some agencies continue to offer voluntary early
retirements to address
budget shortfalls.
There is considerable competition for anyone seeking federal employment
and those interested in working for Uncle Sam must develop a professional
federal style resume and application to
remain competitive and start the process early to improve their chances of success.

Illumination This Is Illumination
- Words: Brock Phillips
- Label: Logic 3000-BMG
Illumination's debut is an ambitious-if at times inconsistent-collection of tracks. This Norwegian duo made a name for themselves through their solo projects and remix work under the Chilluminati tag; their Bugge Wesseltoft rework should be required listening for any downtempo DJ. Now working under the guise of Illumination, the two shift gears to produce an album that's at times aimed squarely at the dancefloor and at others better suited for after-hours listening. High points include the irresistibly funky bass line that underpins "She Got Soul," the zero-g drift of "Black Sun" and the dub atmospherics and reverberating rimshots of "4 A.M."

Happy Holidays
Please Note Holiday Closure
The FKCC Middle Keys Center will be closed Mon. Dec. 15 through Fri. Dec. 19. During that time, students and community members may receive service at the Key West Campus or Upper Keys Center or by calling 305-296-9081.
All FKCC locations will be closed for the Holiday Break Mon. Dec. 22 through Fri. Jan. 2 and will re-open for business on Mon. Jan. 5. The spring semester begins Jan. 9.
Earn Cash with a Computer Certification
FKCC students have another good reason to earn a computer certification: cold hard cash. Students who take and pass computer certificate exams in CompTIA, Microsoft, Oracle, or Web Design will be eligible to take home $250 in addition to the valuable credential.
The computer training incentive is made possible by "<Monroe /> COMPUTE$," an initiative founded and funded by education advocates John Padget and Jacob Dekker in August. The purpose is to create a "computing platform" of courses and certificates in Monroe County to encourage students ranging from middle school to college to gain practical programming skills needed to thrive in tomorrow's technology-fueled world.
The $250 grants will be dispersed to the first 100 completers and must be claimed before June 30, 2015. They are distributed through the Kura Hulanda Foundation, a private foundation supported by Padget and Dekker.
FKCC offers courses to prepare students to successful sit for these exams; however any FKCC student is eligible to sit for the certification exams even without taking a computer class.
For more information about computer courses, certification exams, or the "<Monroe /> COMPUTE$" grant opportunity, contact FKCC Computer Science Professor Dawn Ellis at firstname.lastname@example.com.
FKCC Graduates Fall Class of 2014
FKCC Graduates Future Law Enforcement Officers in Upper Keys
Florida Keys Community College held a graduation ceremony on November 13 for its fifty-third Basic Law Enforcement (BLE) academy in the Performing Arts Center at Coral Shores High School. Six students successfully completed the 770-hour training program based in the College's Upper Keys Center in Tavernier. Upon passing the state certification exam, each will become Florida Law Enforcement Officers.
FKCC Shark Repellent Research Highlighted to Congress
Ongoing research at Florida Keys Community College was highlighted in a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) report on fisheries bycatch reduction presented to Congress in Washington, D. C. on October 9. The NOAA-funded study, entitled "The performance of long lasting shark repellent bait for elasmobranch bycatch reduction during commercial pelagic longline fishing," was conducted by Dr. Patrick Rice, FKCC's dean of career, technical and workforce education. In layman's terms, the study gauged the effects of shark-repelling bait on the number of sharks accidentally caught by fishermen who are targeting species that live in the oceanic pelagic zone such as tuna and swordfish.
"The research demonstrated as much as a 35 percent reduction in shark bycatch during commercial pelagic longline fishing," reported Rice, who has developed several variations of shark repellents in the interest of both sharks and humans. "With an estimate of more than 23.5 million sharks captured annually as bycatch during commercial longline fishing, if mandated and applied, the research has the potential to save four to eight million sharks per year globally."

From the SMCM Archives By Kat Ryner '86 Can you help solve a mystery?
I've cataloged thousands of photographs for SMCM since becoming archivist in 2001, and I need some help with this one. This photo was probably taken in the Smoker, the recreation room once on the ground floor of Kent Hall. Who are these men? And just when was the photo taken-before or after the school became fully co-ed in 1965? Playing cards, drinking Sprite-what else did young men in the '60s do in their spare time on campus? And who created the panoramic mural on the wall behind them? If you have any answers or theories, please contact me.
Send us your burning questions.

id probly have to get approval from him before i got a vapor, im leaning towards the CX just cuz its smarter and they have brand new ones on here...im gunna grab a fix for everything else besides aggresive freeriding
You said the T6 doesn't, which is correct. Obviously.
The vapor has the ICS... I think I remember you saying otherwise earlier.
But I love steeeze's review. Why spend a grand on a burton board that's great at one thing and meh at everything else. Just get a good all mountain board (a nanner??) and call it a day. Who cares if you can whip through a run a bit quicker?
ok the vapor would have to be a blem cuz they dont got my size here but still...im itching to try a thousand dollar board...300 bucks more than CX is bound to make some difference
Custom X or Vapor........
Custom X looks perfect basically but i could get the vapor on here for cheap cheap or a blemished one for chump change, and i want to see what the heck burtons THOUSAND DOLLAR board is all about, but only having to pay the price of a mid range deck
Foursquare definitely fucked up too. But I was talking to some dude on live chat and he's like...
"Oh we take photos of everything ourselves when we first get it."
So I called him out and said a lot of the shit is the stock photo from the manufacturers website. I never got a response to that, bastards.
The orange pants were bright as hell but I kinda liked them and all reguardless. I just don't think I'm good enough to be wearin a neon sign around all day that says "LOOK AT ME!!!"
its not backcoutrys fault, its foursquares...i got the brilliance pants and they looks nasty pale yellow in the pics (on both 4SQ's site and BC) and they are actaully BRIGHT! neon yellow
They look noooooothing like the pictures. First I got the 'blaze leaf' which turned out to be 'construction worker vest' orange. So I returned them for the 'oxford tan' which really meant khaki. Fortunately the second pair ended up matching the jacket so I kept up.
But come on, how hard is it to photograph your products correctly?
i went up one spot on BC too, all ur guys helpful voted helped a whole frikkin lot! so what what, thank you. Im glad i jumped in at the very start of the black list cuz its hard to get to the top if you start in late, and the whole ranking rejiggering was a perfect way to even it out
#1 on the blacklist, what what. Good job man. Well on dogfunk anyways...
i got a friend with some huge property and is no stranger to doin crazy stuff with snowboards off the snow...maybe do it there. and of course all frieds of this site would be welcome at anytime
thats pretty rad too, dude the homeowners associatiation ruins my life all my sweet ideas just lead to citations :(
im rippin out all the sodd in my back yard and the result is just a TON of fill dirt basically, that i could probably build a decent sized roll in to kicker, with stairs and everything, right in the back yard...then just put somethin on it so not to destroy my board...stupid Homeowners association would never let it slide
nah i probs should have though i need a new lens for mine cuz i broke it at keystone, hahaha i wish, the shop i work at is a skatepark too and we're planning on getting some astroturf to put down and sesh some of the ramps and rails
did you pick up those rouges? i remember you sayin you loved em, thats a GREAT deal on them too...im not gunna pull the trigger on em just yet cuz im saving for hardgoods.
and theres been times when i was tempted to just empty a big room in the house and turn it into a little snowboard playground...in another life maybe..........................
the blacklist just got like turned upside down...they took all the peoples reviews that are like 5 years old and have been collecting helpful votes all that time, and deleted all those helpful votes. makes tons of sense because some people were pretty far up there just because they wrote a few really good reviews like 3 years ago...sweet stuff BC/DF
we do that at the shop i work at all the time
to test the flex of my boards and stuff, nothin wrong with that...heck at one of my local shops in august the guys there were strapped up and jibbing (to the best of their ability with no momentum) a bench they had laid welcome mats on, it was sick!
Got my DC denim's today and they are awesome. I can't wait to wear that shit out next year and get all the 'wtf are you wearing jeans out for?' comments.
New board, new bindings on the way, new pants... I almost feel like strapping everything on (board included) and hopping around my house for the day.
thats actually a REALLY good item to have on here. the redicuous retail price is well, rediculous!!!!...but here its at a price most people can handle, especially people like me who need really comfortable bindings
...now granted im getting a new pair of bindings very soon so i didnt pick it up, but its a logical choice for people who paid for say the customs, love the price and performance, but hate the comfort. thats my story, if i wasnt sending the customs back and goin EST, i would have picked up the strap in a second

White Bread - Island FlavourDissolve 1 teaspoon of white sugar and 1 tablespoon of yeast in 3/4 cup of warm water. (I turn on the light in oven before I start and then put the mixture in oven to proof for about 10 minutes.)
Mix together 3 tablespoons of oil (I use canola) and 1 egg. I put this in the microwave and heat for 15 seconds when the yeast is ready.
In a large bowl, mix together 3 tablespoons white sugar, 1 tablespoon salt and 3 1/4 cups warm water. Add the yeast and egg mixtures. Then add approximately 11 to 12 cups of flour gradually. Knead five minutes. Put in greased bowl, cover, and let rise approximately 2 hours (I put this in oven also.)
Punch down, knead five minutes and let rise again approximately 1 1/2
Punch down, put in pans and let rise for about two hours.
Bake at 350 F for approximately 45 minutes. (I use 2 regular loaf pans, a round casserole dish and a smaller loaf pan.)

Occupy National Gathering 2014 – Together We Rise!
It's Time to Organize and Make Our Voices Heard!
Occupy National Gathering is a yearly gathering of Occupiers, supporters and coalition groups. Occupy's third national gathering, NatGat 2014 or NatGat3, will take place July 31 – August 3 in Sacramento, CA. Occupy Sacramento is busy rounding up venues for 4 days of teach-ins, skillshares, workshops, open spaces and actions.
Each year a collective of occupiers forms to support the host city and participate in planning and organizing the gathering, working in autonomous subgroups and projects and coming together for reportbacks and planning as the national gathering working group, or NGWG. The NGWG2014 comprises Occupy Sacramento on the ground, and Occupiers and allies from far and wide online, hopefully soon to include you!
The working groups (about 100 occupiers so far) are busy laying the tracks, and need Occupy to drive the train and bring it home. Let us know what Occupy would like to see and bring to the Occupy National Gathering!
In addition to planning the event on the ground, a few special projects are underway that can use your energy and participation:
an online component through which people can participate
anti-racism training
Occupy National Gathering or Bust!
Caravans are self-organized groups travelling to natgat and coordinating to meet up with other Occupiers along the way.

An Illustrated Guide to the Proper Use of "Yakety Sax"
Also, one should know by now never to violate a Siamese's space.
Also, one should know by now never to violate a Siamese's space.
Kids today will never have the experience of being at home, listening to the radio, hearing "I'll take the second caller," and instantly knowing you're totally fucked.
We know we're late to this one, what with the cancellation and all, but there's something about the finale to Alec Baldwin's Potty-Mouthed Tirade that fascinates us. Seems he disputes what everybody thinks they heard when he cussed out an intrusive street photographer:
You can't really tell what I'm saying… if I called him 'cocksucking maggot' or a 'cocksucking motherfucker'… 'faggot' is not the word that came out of my mouth.
Baldwin insists that he didn't say faggot. But he freely admits to cocksucking.
Something you probably didn't know about sloths:
Sloths go to the ground to urinate and defecate about once a week, digging a hole and covering it afterwards. They go to the same spot each time and are vulnerable to predation while doing so. The reason for this risky behaviour is unknown, although some believe that it is to avoid making noise while defecating from up high that would attract predators.
Sloths: They're just like us! Well, when we're really drunk.
Our guest columnist will probably pay closer attention next time when Googling "teaching" quotes.

Swimming With Cars: 9 Amphibious Vehicles
Credit World War II for making cars that can swim. And though the largest numbers of amphibian passenger cars were made way back in the 1960s, the prospect of a car that can navigate waterways like a boat continues to attract inventors.
By Phil Berg
Dobbertin Surface Orbiter
Using a double-wall stainless-steel milk tank from the back of a truck, Rick Dobbertin from Cazenovia, N.Y., built an amphibious truck that he drove from Florida to South America via the Gulf of Mexico, and back to the U.S. on land in 1995. It took him four and a half years to build the craft, which is 32 feet long, 7.5 feet wide, 10 feet high, and weighs 9 tons fully loaded. Its GM diesel V-8 makes 250 hp and powers all six wheels. The "surface orbiter" has traveled 33,000 miles on land, 3,000 in the sea, and was sold in a 1999 divorce auction for $200,000.
