April 9 — The Bloom family remembers a father and husband: David was an energetic and talented reporter whose battlefield broadcasts gave millions a soldier's view of war. David was born in Edina, Minnesota and attended Pitzer College in Claremont, California where he was national debate champion.
HIS TELEVISED DEBATE triumph launched his career as a reporter that began in La Crosse, Wisconsin and later Wichita, Kansas. He moved to Miami as an investigative journalist for NBC in 1989. His work took him to Chicago, Los Angeles and Washington, where David served as White House correspondent, and finally to New York as the weekend anchor of the Today show. David was a familiar face on morning and nightly news broadcasts, bringing live coverage from the wars in Bosnia and Somalia, from Ground Zero in New York, as well as Israel, Kuwait, and Pakistan.
Although David died doing what he loved, his heart and thoughts belonged to his family. In David's last communication to his wife, Melanie, on April 5th, he wrote "when the moment comes in my life when you are talking about my last days, I am determined that you and others will say 'he was devoted to his wife and children, he was admired, he gave every ounce of his being for those whom he cared most about… not himself, but God and his family.'"
He is survived by Melanie, his three daughters, Christine, Nicole and Ava, his parents Harold and Laura, of Edina, Minnesota, and his brothers John, of Edina, and Jim, of Seattle, Washington.
David Bloom's family received tens of thousands of e-mail condolences. His wife, Melanie, expresses her thanks for all the thoughtful mail.
I want you to know that I read your email expressing sympathy for my husband, David Bloom's, death. I cannot begin to tell you how much your thoughts mean to David's family and me. There has been such an outpouring of compassion, and your words touched me. In this most difficult of times, it is comforting to know that many people like yourself watched his reports, respected him and cared about him. When our three daughters are a little older, I will show them your note so they will know how much their daddy was admired.
Again, thank you for your thoughtfulness in taking the time to write and send your condolences.
Warmest regards,
Melanie Bloom

Taurus Nature
(21st April to 21st May)
Taurus Nature
|You are the second sign of the Zodiac, Taurus, with the Bull as your symbol. Though the charging Bull represents power and strength, don't let the symbolism confuse you – You can be rather soft and sophisticated in your nature. Just like a bull is docile until it is tempted, you are also easy-going till the time you are provoked or instigated. You are known for your determination, though, and there is not much that can distract you from your goals. You give a lot of importance to simplicity and stability in life, though many others around you may find you boring and lacking in excitement. You simply refuse to take unnecessary risks that can jeopardise your stability. You also attach a lot of significance to creature comforts, and can be quite materialistic, but this is what gives you that pragmatic touch. Though you cannot exactly be called an extrovert, you can be an excellent friend. You tend to assume the role of protector and guide to the friends who are close to you. Outlined here are merely generalised traits. For a more detailed and personalised Birth Chart based sketch of your nature as well as what's in store for you in the future, you might like to Get Your Horoscope Analysis report.
Taurus Key Planet: Venus
The key planet for you Bulls is Venus, the planet of love, both idealistic and worldly. You tend to get swept off your feet by romance and beauty. When you see a beautiful painting or any other work or art and appreciate it, you may be sure it is the effect of Venus. You are sensual and simple, and have a keen eye for all that is beautiful in the world. When it boils down to relationships, you believe in long-term ties and often have a happy and stable marriage. You long for peace and harmony, and will rarely venture out of your relationship.
Second House: Possessions
The Second House symbolises everything in the world that is of any value to you, both material and non-material things. Personal possessions and money are definitely in its domain. Property and human relationships are both important. And, when you think about what is the most important thing to you — your own set of values — you are indeed being influenced by your Second House. Do you know what a House is? Anand Sagar Pathak explains in detail – Houses in a Horoscope – What is their significance?
Taurus Element: Earth
Your Element is Earth, and just like the other signs of Earth are noted for their practicality, you too are extremely down to earth in your approach towards life. You believe in facing life as it is and there is no escaping from reality. Your practical nature provides great support to the other Zodiac signs which are of emotional nature.
Taurus Strength:
A pragmatic outlook on life is your forte. Some of your other strengths are reliability, consistency, loyalty, patience and generosity.
Taurus Weakness:
Your most prominent weakness is possessiveness, especially when involved in love affairs. Some of your other negative characteristics are stubbornness, laziness, being too materialistic and selfish. It is advisable that you avail Chart your Destiny report, a 100 percent personalised analysis of your unique Birth Chart, and know your actual strengths and weaknesses.

Benefit reform – the perfect storm
3 March 2014
From April 2014, the government will now pay five benefits directly to claimants' bank accounts on a monthly basis rather than directly to creditors such as Housing Associations and private landlords. Claimants will need to claim online for this 'Universal Credit', at central points, e.g. Job Centre Plus if they don't have internet access and DWP will pay all benefits in one payment monthly to claimants' bank accounts. Following evidence from pilots of potential issues including fears of soaring rent defaults, DWP will encourage Direct Debits and has arranged to facilitate direct payment of rent for vulnerable claimants.

Email me when back in stock.
Food grade D/Earth (Diatomaceous Earth) is made of the skeletal remains of fossilized microscopic plankton, or diatoms, which lived in the oceans and lakes millions of years ago. This plankton added to the buildup of sediment on the ocean floor, and today we mine the soft, powdery remains of that plankton, using the whitish shell flour for many purposes for pets and humans alike. The fossilized remains of these microscopic diatoms have remarkable and safe bug killing qualities when mined and milled to a fine powder. D/Earth can be added to animal feed to �scrub� the digestive tract of impurities, worms and parasites, or just to help with irregularity and digestive issues. Here is a list of many D/Earth uses.
Helps control fleas and ticks
Stimulates metabolism
Sprinkle lightly on coat as a drying agent
For diarrhea it seems to act as an agent to draw bacteria out of the body and firm stool
Reduces odor and moisture around kennels or barns
Helps kill pests and parasites without harmful chemicals
Ingredeints: 100% Diatomaceous Earth. Food grade/Fresh water quality.
There are two kinds of Diatomaceous Earth, Food grade amorphous silicon dioxide, or better known as the safe, consumable D/Earth, and industrial crystalline silica that is used for such applications as pool filters and road or construction material. Only food grade, non-heated amorphous silica is safe to be used as an alternative pesticide or food additive, and great care must be taken to make sure you are buying and using the purest form possible.
As an alternative pesticide D/Earth is a very effective weapon against fleas, ticks, and any other type of bug with an exoskeleton. D/Earth is applied by lightly sprinkling the powder around areas that pests frequent, like kennels, bedding or flooring. When a pest walks through the D/Earth the shell flour sticks to insect�s exoskeleton and the tiny, microscopically sharp, diatoms begin to rub and wear down the bug�s protective barrier, ultimately cutting through the shell, dehydrating the insect, and effectively killing it. This process is done without the use of harmful chemical insecticides.
Kennel Use: Sprinkle lightly around kennel or bedding areas where there is a high concentration of parasites.
Oral Use: 1 to 2 tablespoonfuls per 50 lbs of body weight as needed as a nutritional supplement for animals with skin & coat needs during the parasite season.
*Product is labeled "not for human consumption" to meet the legal requirements of the FDA for products sold and marketed for pet use and consumption. While many products sold for "Pet Use" may be similar to products used by humans, Thomas Laboratories is obligated to remain within the boundaries set forth by the FDA regarding correct and current labeling of our products.
** Diatomaceous Earth, while safe to swallow, can be a lung irritant if breathed in. Please take all precautions neccesary (dust masks, respirators, etc.) to avoid breathing in dust. When applying this product to pet bedding or household carpeting, furniture, or flooring, please apply sparingly and allow dust to settle before re-population of pets and humans.

My Bottle-fed Babies
With the girls, we decided just to use a bottle {after nursing, of course, this is why it is called "supplementation"}.
So, here I am, with three mostly-bottle-fed babies. I am still breast-is-best enough to cringe if I think about it too long.
Some of the cringing has to do with a sense of failure that I can't do it, a disappointment with God that my body doesn't do what it appears to be created to do. One of the reasons why I like organic, non-GMO, unpasteurized food is because it seems to be more in line with the way God created things, and I am very comfortable with the created order.
So imagine me taking a scoop of powder and shaking it in a bottle and then telling Baby it's time for her milk. I cringe, even now, after all these years.
But, really, I'm not writing this to talk about or complain about formula. It is what it is.
What I want to talk about is who feeds the baby.
One of the other reasons I dislike bottle-feeding is because people try to steal the baby. No one has the gall to walk up to a nursing mommy and suggest that she allow them to feed the baby so that she can "take a break" or let them "bond with the baby" for a short while. But bottle-feeding moms have to deal with this all the time.
Is a distant relative visiting your home? If you bottle-feed, chances are she will want to give the baby a bottle. Close friend? Relative? Baby sitter? Almost all of them will offer to feed the baby.
When I was a first-time mom, I usually said yes. I felt guilty saying no. After all, now that baby was bottle-fed, I was essentially dispensable. Everyone in the room was just as capable as nourishing the baby as I was. In fact, if I refused, I occasionally got the impression that some people viewed me as selfish. After all, I got to see the baby all day long, and they were only here for a short while.
Deep breath.
It's time to step back and look at that created order again. Mother's milk says a number of things about God's design. People often assume it says only one thing, but I think those people are mistaken. Milk does say the obvious, which is what God designed the baby to eat. And this is usually where the discussion ends.
But I would argue that mother's milk also reveals, among other things, who God designed to feed the baby.
And I think this is why it bothered me that people always wanted to feed my babies. Once the issue of what Baby should eat was up for grabs, who should feed Baby was, too.
And that, my friends, was part of my cringing. My "failure" to make milk combined with the general cultural idea that mothers are optional, that some sort of substitute was totally valid.
Does this mean that I never let anyone feed the baby? No. Even breastfeeding moms occasionally pump a bottle and let their husband or grandma feed baby. I am not about to make absolute statements about this issue.
However, comma...
To those moms who are bottle feeding {for whatever reason}, don't feel like you can't defend your territory. You are not selfish when you tell others that you will be the one to feed the baby. If you were nursing, this would be obvious, but the bottle sometimes muddies the issue. So you will have to make it clear.
What do I say? Now that I am on Baby Number Three, fewer people ask. There are so many other ways they can help. But, sometimes, if the person asking is close enough that they can joke about it, I say, "If your breasts make milk, you can feed the baby."
And they laugh. And I laugh. And we all get the point.
I am Mommy. No one else is. God's design is not for Grandpa, Grandma...or even Daddy to feed the baby. Mommy is for feeding.
Am I saying it is sinful for someone else to feed the baby? No! I don't think we need to go that far in order to have a discussion about this. Was it sinful for the Hebrews to have wet-nurses? There have always been a certain percentage of women who were incapable of making milk, or at least enough milk.
My point is about the design. The world has blurred a lot of roles that used to be so clear. The overwhelming acceptance of formula has aided this. After all, it is formula which allows Mommy to get a job and leave Baby with a "care provider." The bottle has done much in our society to separate mother from child.
If you are a bottle-feeding mom, and you are uncomfortable with how often other people want to feed your baby, I suggest you start saying no. Today. Right now.
I look back on life with my firstborn, and I wish I had done this. I wish I had insisted on being the one to feed him. But I was timid, afraid that others would take offense. Now I know that this is not an area for timidity, but for simply stating the facts. Namely, asking the question, "Who does God's design say should feed the baby?"

As far as I know, I will be one of those women who can't breastfeed her babies. I say "will be" because a) I am not married, b) I don't have a baby, and c) unless I am mistaken about some medical information I have received it will be much better for my future child(ren)'s health to be bottle-fed.
But anyway, your post really got me thinking. I can see why you would feel somewhat hesitant to let another feed your baby when you WOULD be the only one feeding her if you COULD do it naturally.
That gives me the idea that perhaps I should adopt the same philosophy (albeit probably much too prematurely) since I will more than likely be bottle-feeding all my hypothetical future children. I never thought about how much bonding took place between mother and child during breast-feeding, but now that I read about it I can understand your thoughts. I feel kinda' silly as I write this since it seems so obvious but as I have never been a mother thus, I guess I am a bit slower in catching on. I always heard about that wonderful "bonding experience" between mother and baby while I was studying nursing and the brief stent I worked in Women's health as an RN but I didn't truly understand it. To me it was more like, "oh yeah, bonding. That nice, warm fuzzy feeling a mom gets when she holds her baby."
Just so you know, you have some support out there. I think you are perfectly justified to not desire nor allow others to feed your babies. But maybe Daddy really would like to hold and feed baby sometime and maybe you could use the extra arms. Just a thought. :)
As a side note: Did you know the simple act of holding a baby is known as "nursing" in Australia? I heard a rather humorous incident related of an Australian man who had asked a young American girl if she would like to "nurse" the baby. After she looked at him with eyes wide in shock he replied nonchalantly,"Well, okay then I'LL nurse the baby." Hehe. Needless to say, it had American audiences nearly rolling out of their chairs with laughter.
Thanks for your reflections! I always appreciate them.
I will say that my husband (and the grandparents) do occasionally feed the baby. I just try not to let that happen any more than a breast-feeding mom would (by pumping). And feeding the baby solid food is something I let anyone do anytime because I don't see any evidence of "design" to the contrary.
Breastfeeding is a bonding experience, for sure. But just as adoptive moms can bond with a baby, so can bottle-feeding moms. Breastfeeding might help, but I think there is more than one road to the desired destination (being bonded). It is interesting to note, though, that some of the adoption literature suggests that the new mom and dad not pass the baby around until they are sure the baby has bonded with them. So similar logic still seems to apply.
I had no idea about Autralia's terminology! Very funny story, and I'm sure you have saved me from future embarrassment. :)
Also, if you ever wanted to talk about whether you can or cannot nurse your babies, I'd be willing to give you my take privately over email. Though the nursing of my babies has been limited, it has been worthwhile. Of course, if you don't want to talk about it, I completely understand.

"No one has the gall to walk up to a nursing mommy and suggest that she allow them to feed the baby so that she can 'take a break' or let them 'bond with the baby' for a short while." Actually, they do. In fact, I have heard many people say that breastfeeding mom should pump so other people "get a chance" to bond with the baby, as if it is only reasonable to expect this demanding, extra step. I have also had people ask my husband if he feels cheated that he didn't get to bottle-feed our children.ReplyDelete
True story - my husband has always been a protective, not-going-to-share kind of dad. A couple weeks after my oldest was born, one of the older moms came up to my husband at church and asked if she could hold the baby. She had her arms out, fully expecting my daughter to be passed over when my husband coolly said, "No," and walked away. It became kind of a joke among our church friends, but no one even bothered to ask him by the time our third was born!Replies
That's hilarious! I admire someone brave enough to say no when everyone expects a yes!Delete

One of the undeniable truths about the Left is that they define morality by one's agreement with Leftist ideology rather than by an individual's actions. this is why the Feminists were prepared to look the other way at Bill Clinton's alleged treatment of women while, at the same time they were ready to lynch Clarence Thomas. It did not matter how Clinton treated women, it mattered that he was pro-abortion and generally favored the Feminist agenda. Stacy McCain gives us another, even starker example to consider. Consider the environmentalist that is "moral" because she is anti-fracking. No matter, apparently, to her fans that she advocates for sex with children
Environmentalists are rallying to the defense of an anti-fracking activist who has advocated pedophilia and incest after a Pennsylvania court barred her from entering any land owned or leased by a local oil company. . . .
"My new heroine is called Vera Scroggins," one environmental activist declared. "Go Vera!" cheered another. . . .
Scroggins expressed her desire for parents to engage their children sexually at a young age in a series of messages in 2001 posted to an online message board called Peacelist.
"Are there cultures that mothers or fathers pleasure their children and teenagers sexually or genitally and also possibly initiate them into sexual expression at some point?" she asked.
"I have had intuitive thoughts that such would be a healthy way for parents to interact with their children and introduce their children to sensual/sexual pleasure and bonding and loving practices."
"Who better to do it, than the parents first?" she wrote.
Why. you might wonder would anyone defend this woman and her morally bankrupt notions? I mean there are surely anti-fracking nut cases that DO NOT think parents ought to be diddling their kids. So why would they embrace, and cheer this monster? Because, simply stated, the Left's morality is based not on personal character and conduct, but on how tuned in to Leftist ideology you are.
Go read the rest at The Other McCain, where we learn that poor poor Vera claims she was taken out of context. Yes, of course you were you perverted old hippy hag!

12 Smart Ideas For A Simple Summer Party
Food stylist and recipe developer Susan Spungen shares her favorite summer entertaining tips
By Ingrid Abramovitch
Julie and Julia
• Go big for maximum impact. Serve fewer things, but have more of them. Own several large platters—at least 24 inches long. Buy a couple of flats of strawberries and fill a large bowl with them. You'll make a grand gesture for under $40.
• A buffet table should look full and abundant. Have as little of the table showing as possible. A mirror-image buffet, with doubles of everything, helps traffic flow.

Interview with Peter Marshall, 11 August 2009
Peter Marshall is Emeritus Professor of Imperial History at King's College, London. In 1990, he was invited to join the History Working Group, which was then drafting the history National Curriculum. He replaced John Roberts, another distinguished academic. Peter Marshall here reflects on his role in the HWG. When he joined it, the members were reeling under the impact of hostile press coverage of their interim report. The relationships with the press, with the politicians and with the civil servants are discussed. He reflects on some of the discussions of the Group, in particular in relation to what were seen as tricky issues, such as whether to include the Second World War and how to cover the British Empire. Interviewed by Nicola Sheldon.

Thanked 1 Time in 1 Post
I deleted as many useless emails in my mail box that I could just to free up some space and to see what happened. It appears that now I can receive emails even with anti-spam engaged. My quota did not appear to be exceeded previously so I figured I should try deleting old messaged. I am just worried that this problem is going to happen again soon and that something else is really causing the lockout of inbound email. This is my main account and it has caused lots of grief blocking so many clients, customers and friends.
Please let me know if you see anything else that may have caused the problem from the "ls -la /var/www/web4/.spamassassin" printout that you requested.
Thanks Falko!

Web 2.O Connecting and impacting Lives
The most exiting part about Web 2.0, is the connection that it provides, it has created a platform where dialogue can take place where one can speak and be listened to in a larger field, through Web 2.O people can identify other people whom they share passion and life experiences and work together toward a common goal either directly or indirectly.
The greatest impact /solution that Web 2.0 has achieved is to empower the women by providing a platform where they can share out their mind without any judgment, this makes ones dream clearer and one get to believe in themselves,it has also opened many peoples eyes and I have personally become sensitive to my surrounding and I realized and for once I cant give it a blind eye .
Web 2.0 have made me dream again, it have made me believe it's possible to achieve a better society, not be content with the injustices surrounding me all this is through other women experiences and achievement made possible for me to connect to through Web 2.0 .
Dear Ann, I think you are
Dear Ann,
I think you are highlighting a crucial point and this is that we should believe in ourselves, only then we can achieve success.
Warm Regards,
Hi Ann Glora,
I loved reading the Web 2.0 made you dream again, and I also enjoyed reading that you feel empowered to share your thoughts and speak your mind - please keep doing all of that!
All my best,
Dear Ann,
Thanks for your post. I hope you'll continue to share your thoughts and ideas!
hope opens us to possibility
Dear Ann, thank you for sharing your insights. I would like to hear more about how you would help women to express themselves without fear of judgment. It's wonderful to read about the re-birth of your hope that you can change how women experience the world. I hope you will keep sharing your ideas.
To me, we must first judge
To me, we must first judge ourselves to be enough. To really believe that it true. Others may judge us, but if we accept who we are, including our weaknesses and strengths, we can move forward even when we are afraid.
I enjoyed reading about your experiences. You asked if you answered the question - what do you think? Your answer is, in my view, the answer that matters most. Only you know what is in your heart.
Thank you so much for sharing with me! Together we have more strength than any one of us alone.

-- Thanks to a Coldplay concert at Vancouver's Rogers Arena, Game 5 of the LA-Vancouver series will
not arrive until Sunday night. That's two games in eight days. Kings coach Darryl Sutter doesn't
particularly like this. "I thought two days between the last two games was too much," he said.
-- "It means we'll have to answer questions fron the media for a few more days," said Dustin Brown,
shrugging, "but it also gives us more time to prepare."
-- Two series in last year's playoffs began 3-0 and went to 3-3: Vancouver-Chicago and San Jose-Detroit.
In both cases, the team with the lead won Game 7 at home, The Canucks would have that chance again
this year if they win Game 5 up there and Game 6 down here.
-- Daniel Sedin played 18:33 for the Canucks and had an assist and three shots on goal. Henrik Sedin
also had three shots, plus the power-play goal that gave Vancouver the 3-1 lead. With the Sedins, the
Canucks were 2 for 9 on the power play after going 0 for 14. "We settled in a little bit with familiar guys
skating with each other," defenseman Kevin Bieksa said.

Bandai is about to release a cute little robot dog that uses the iPhone as its head and brain, while emulating quite a few of the AIBO general behaviors.
The robot dog is supported by an iPhone app that will be downloadable free of charge (at least in Japan). According to the information released by Bandai, the robot can walk, dance, sing, take photos and videos, and is capable of approximately 100 behaviors/responses.
As part of the product marketing roll-out, it was featured in a new music video by Meisa Kuroki performing "FRENEMY": Am I going to get one? Absolutely! Just as soon as they hit stores here at the end of April. Pricing is "open price" but is expected to be around $75.00. No information is available yet on Bandai's plans to sell and support the robot outside of Japan.
