Support for fathers-to-be – and those who already are
By the time his wife, Allison, was a few months from delivering their first child more than five years ago, Eric Gregory knew all about the birthing process and how to install a car seat. But he didn't know what to expect as a new dad. That changed when he completed "Boot Camp for New Dads," a three-hour program hosted by First Things First of Greater Richmond in which "veteran" dads share advice and information with dads-to-be in a casual group format. "All the maternity classes we had taken were focused on Mom," Gregory recalled. "This was the first class I had heard about that was for dads. It was amazing." The program, created by a California man and then replicated nationwide, teaches dads-to-be everything from what to pack in a diaper bag and how to hold a newborn to how to identify the signs of post-partum depression in the baby's mother. Each session includes a facilitator and veteran dads, who bring their infants with them and share tips and experiences with the dads-to-be. Though the expectant fathers come from all different backgrounds – from unwed teens to married CEOs – they quickly find common ground, said Gregory, who has remained involved with the program as a veteran dad and facilitator. "This happens every time I facilitate a class," he said. "You walk in, it's nine o'clock on a Saturday morning, there are all these guys, all strangers to each other, everybody kind of hunched over. And then when it starts, the dynamic changes almost immediately. In no time at all, the guys are relaxed, joking with each other, sharing things with each other." First Things First Board member and Boot Camp facilitator Jeff Ukrop agreed. "It's usually the most diverse group of men you could expect to put in a room – across culture and socio-economic range – but the thing they can all relate to is not having a clue about how to handle this baby," he said. "Boot Camp" is one of many programs offered by First Things First of Greater Richmond, a not-for-profit organization that works to educate and strengthen families. Boot Camp's specific value quickly became apparent shortly after its inception locally in 2007, said Bob Ruthazer, the founder and program director of FTF. "What we noticed was that there were lots of things for moms, but there was very little in our community for dads," Ruthazer said. "We've seen over time the sort of tremendous negative impacts that occur when dads are missing from kids' lives or emotionally absent. We wanted to encourage dads to be more involved and equip them." Sessions cost $25 and are held on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to noon several times a month at eight local hospitals, which provide the meeting space for free and also make financial contributions to the program. Boot Camp has grown primarily through word of mouth and has served more than 1,700 men since its inception, Ruthazer said. "We had a letter from a mom [recently] saying 'I don't know what you did to my husband, but thank you very much!" he said. As Gregory attests, one three-hour session can make a significant difference for an expectant father who may have many unanswered questions. "Sometimes these young guys are holding babies for the first time at Boot Camp," he said. "They come out of the session excited to be new dads – and they'll be in that relationship [with their children] for their whole lives. "It had a profound impact on me, and it continues to." For fathers with preschoolers and elementary school-aged children, FTF offers All Pro Dad, a national program created in part by former NFL coach Tony Dungy that is designed as a way to foster communication between dads and their children. Dads and their kids meet 10 times a year in a group setting to discuss various values, watching videos that help explain them and then having one-on-one and group conversations about them. Meetings are free, but registration is required. During a recent gathering at the Martin's at Crossridge, the group discussed "kindness" and the benefits of paying it forward. As a take-home exercise, each father-child pair was encouraged to put the lesson to work by paying for the person behind them the next time they passed through a tollbooth or purchased a cup of coffee, for example. Ukrop's son still recalls a lesson learned at an All Pro Dad meeting last October, during which the value was "humility" and attendees watched a video of NFL players celebrating touchdowns. "At the end of it we talked about how the other team feels," Ukrop recalled. "To this day, when he sees a touchdown, my son will go, 'Is he being humble?' I turn it back on him and say, 'What do you think?' So we're able to have that dialogue. . . and to engage in a meaningful conversation." |

Face beauty tips for women
Hollywood is synonymous with beauty, glamour and celebrity beauty tips. The base for all is lovely skin.
While we may not have the natural beauty of todays well known stars, many celebrities give skin care advice. Stars such as Emma Watson readily discuss their beauty routine. As she said, "My skin's really sensitive. It's got to last me a long time. I don't want to wear it out." Her concern, as with most, deals with moisturizing. She also loves a well threaded brow and facial. All are part of her skin and beauty care routine.The focal point of your skin is the face. There is plenty of information available on face beauty tips for women. Everyone agrees the key to a beautiful face is one that is cleansed on a routine basis. The secret can be compared to watering a garden you want just the proper amount. You do not want to over clean as that can lead to dry skin. Certainly beauty treatments are part of the routine. Taylor Swift as most 20 something Superstars knows all about Hollywood beauty. One of Taylor Swift skin care secrets is that she uses the same cream regardless of the time of day. She places a night cream on every morning and every evening. For foundation she mentioned many of the best in the business do not use brushes. Instead they use their hands. She loves it. There is no argument among the Hollywood elite that first you have to learn how to get healthy skin. The argument less is more wins when it comes to concealer. Along with washing off the make-up you wash off the skin's protection.Getting the skin in shape starts in part with a healthy skin diet. Items such as blueberries, salmon and kiwi are beneficial. The greatest part—and it is true-eat a reasonable amount of dark chocolate to keep your skin hydrated. It also protects from sun damage. Remember though it should be a minimum of 60% cocoa. Eat away!So how does one have healthy skin? We have hit upon the importance of proper hydration and cleansing. By following the rules your Mom no doubt told you will have healthy skin. Mom told you not to smoke. It increases the wrinkles and makes you look older. Mom also told you to wear sun screen. Be gentle on the skin. No harsh soaps. Follow your mom's words to have healthy skin. Many stars are now displaying their beauty through a number of sites. Emma Stone Mr. Skin website displays her natural beauty. The desire to go natural and relax at home has definitely led to an emerging market in homemade skin care. Many products easily found in your pantry can make an excellent skin care product at a reduced cost. There really is no need to buy expensive make up products when you have items such as oatmeal onion and yogurt. Combine the oatmeal and onion for a relaxing face mask. Standing alone, yogurt makes for great exfoliation. To brighten your skin tone mix aspirin with apple cider. Pretty sweet.No Hollywood beauty discussion would be completed without including today's Diva, Beyonce. With icons such as Audrey Hepburn as her guide she epitomizes classic celebrity beauty. One of her favorite things is Carol's Daughter Ecstasy Sea Salt Scrub. She has declared this as her favorite in home spa treatment. Who has the courage to debate beauty tips with Beyonce? Good luck!Hollywood skin care is legendary. From the past beauties of Marilyn to today's Beyonce it makes Hollywood Hollywood.Keep the following tips in mind to get and maintain unforgettable skin.Moisturize. Think of Emma Watson and how gorgeous she is and read Emma Watson skin care post. The look is due in part to proper hydration of the skin.Cleanse. Keep your face clean but not too. Harsh soaps and constant washing can greatly damage the face and skin. Experiment with various creams. Even youngsters such as Taylor know the importance of cream. Her suggestion is to use a night cream all day and night. Relax at home with the sea salt scrub suggested by Beyonce.Have some fun and stay in. Many pantry ingredients can improve your skin texture and glow. Make it a girl's night.

So here's a tough one for me... I have a two tier birthday cake to do for tomorrow, so I'm baking today. Please help! It's for a group of 46 kids! Plus adults, but who knows how many adults??? The mom said, "46 kids plus adults", but she didn't know how many adults would be there or how much cake to have. Do I play it safe and have plenty and possibly an extreme amount of extra cake, or what? Expert advice.... what size tiers would you make? Thanks so much for any advice!

Looking at the Allen Olympic Spey rod in a 6 or 7wt. Anyone have any experience with it? I would be using it for swinging for Steelhead, My current 8wt Loop seems a little too stiff for the size of fish in the river. Looking for something with a bit softer flex to it to even out the fight. My concern with going to the 6wt is that it would be too light of a rod for steelhead. i currently use a 6wt switch for bass fishing and could not imagine using it for the medium sized river for larger steelhead.
Hi Mort, and welcome to the Asylum. Think you may posted up a similar question 'elsewhere,' so this may just be a repeat of what you've already read. Rod choice is dependent on three major things. (Yes, yes, there are others too.) Size of and flow rate of the water, size of the fish you expect, and the size of the fly you want to chuck. Is a 6 or 7 too light for normal Steelhead fishing? Not in the least ... save for you're on the Skagit or Thompson (well, BIG WATER). There you need a rod with lots of 'umph.' Normal flows, etc., you'll find that a 6wt is fine for lower water work (summer/fall) and you'll need to 'bump it up a bit' come winter/spring. With that in mind .... you can only go with one new rod ... take a 7. You can handle one hell of a fish on a 7wt 2hander. Simi rule of the thumb is a given weight on a two hander is (roughly) two line weights over the same number in a 1hander. And by looking at the grain weights used to load one vs the other, that appears to have merit in most cases. Fred
I actually have an Allen Olympic 6wt that I haven't gotten to fish yet. Build quality is nice though, for whatever that is worth.
I like that rod a lot as well and it's probably the darling of the line. I also have the 12' 5wt and the 13'6" 8wt and enjoy both quite a bit. As a note the entire line is a touch on the soft side but not so much as to make them "noodley" which makes them really nice Skagit rods. The 5wt can handle steelhead just fine so, depending on the size of the river, you shouldn't go wrong with either the 6 or 7 wt. Thanks,
Agree with Ian ! Those Allen rods are really awesome!! I have used the 5 weight and really love it! Despite the cheaper price, the performance is not "shy " at all. I agree the action is perfect for skagit, super user friendly.
Thanks for all the feedback guys. Very much appreciated. Once I get the hole in my ceiling fixed that occurred the other day, (ooops) hopefully I'll have the funds to try out one of these rods.
Youtube how to do a 'California patch,' fix the hole yourself, and treat yous' to a new rod for being such a badass house fixin' ninja.
The Allen Olympic 8 weight is a wonderful rod. Traditional flex, well built. The guys behind the Allen company are worth doing business with.
I just built a 6wt for a lady friend tested it out on the snake and grand rhonde. I didn't have the correct scandi line for it but it fished decently with the one I had (AFS 7/8 wt) I tried a bunch of skagit short heads from 420-600 grains and didn't like any of them, I felt the rod was too soft and the head was too short. I'd say the 6 wt is definately a skandi stick, perfect for summer runs on dry lines. I imagine it'd also excell fishing lighter longer skagit lines. I think I'd really love it for mousing too. here's a shitty pic of my build
I agree with AKPM about the 6wt. I picked one up this summer to use for summer runs. I didn't make it out to chase any, but during casting practice the rod throws a 6wt scandi short very nicely with minimal effort.
Is the Rio versitip the main option in a scandi short? And do you HAVE to buy it as a full line rather than a head?
Scandi Short Versitip is my absolute favorite to run on the 12' and 12'6" Olympics. Such a sweet line.
Rio's Scandi short comes as a head in the straight floating head or the versitip head. Not a full line.
Not sure why I thought it was the full line. Probably the $120 price. It appears that the options are the versitip or the head with floating tip. They are both listed as being the same length/weight. So I'm not sure if there is anything different about the versitip other than the three other tips, wallet, and costing $60 more.
Repeating myself here, but when you settle down on 'which rod' the next guy you want to call is Steve Godshall here in Medford, Oregon. Steve builds custom cut lines for 2handers (gather he may do the same for one handers). There probably isn't a 2hander built that he doesn't have the true spec's on same. What gets painted on the blank has damned little to do with much. Had the chance to see his reference book (all self generated numbers) and it had hundreds of rods listed. That "7" could be a 6.8 or a 7.3 and line wise it makes a heck of a difference. Add to that he works in where you fish (type of water), what fish you'll be chasing, and your casting style. You and I have exactly the same rod, would be unusual if you and I got the (exact) same line. Best yet, it will not cost you a dime more than something off the shelf. Lines can be ordered as 'just a head,' as a full line (with colour changes so you know the casting point vis a vis the rod tip), etc. On one of mine, knowing the rod length he spliced in a complete colour change in the top13-9 of the shooting line. Next cast? Just bring the 'orange bit' down to the cork. No looking at the rod tip, no fuss, just strip in to 'there' and let her rip. fae
I really like casting an Airflo multi tip 8/9wt Delta on my 8wt allen. I can even bust out long casts that make me look like I know what I'm doing. Of course, the rod also throws a 600gr skagit compact with 10ft of T14 very nicely.
Good post Fred! It seems Steve has figured out some consistent formula to tailor different lines to a designed rod. That said, a trained hand can cast variety of lines by adjusting different casting strokes... but it's really cool to see many people appreciate the good work from the line wizard! : )

Hi everyone! You have been such a great source of information! I want to get a general poll of what everyone things about OKNA 800? I'm planning on ordering these windows. Also, how can I tell if a window installer is "good"? I found a company based on two recommendations on this forum. Plus the google reviews and yelp reviews are great. Finally, SDL is $112 more and I have 25 windows. I'm thinking of putting the SDL on just the windows on the first floor (where there is high traffic). I would do grids between the glass on the second floor. I don't know how this would look from the outside of the home? What do you think? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I think it would look fine. 112 is a very good price for SDL. Although not knowing the specifics, sdl is usually 125-140 above regular grids between the glass as long as the grids are white and not any kind of wood grain. As far as installation, if all the reviews are good plus they are an okna 800 dealer, you are in very good hands. Best of luck, you chose a great looking window. |
- Posted by HomeSealed (My Page) on Fri, Jun 21, 13 at 23:46
+1. I do like the SDLs but they are certainly an option that does drive the cost up a bit. I would keep the grid type consistent by elevation and not by floor. Ex. All the windows facing a given direction (North, South, East, or West) |

The words tumbled out of her mouth with rhythm. She knew every word. She savored them as if enjoying a rich, delicious cheesecake, her favorite dessert.
Cassandra Valadez, 18, a senior at Sunnyside High School, is preparing for the annual Poetry Out Loud National Recitation Contest in Washington, D.C. Last year, Valadez placed third at the regional competition. This year she is the state champion.
Kurt Fischer, a literature teacher at Sunnyside High School, and her stepfather, Bobby Sandoval, will accompany Valadez on the trip.
"This is Sunnyside's 50th year participating in the program," said Fischer, who has coached Valadez for two years. "Last year was the first year we had a student go up to state, and that was Cassandra."
The national contest runs today and Tuesday. Students will compete for the title of Poetry Out Loud National Champion and a $20,000 award.
Valadez will interpret three challenging poems: "Dirge Without Music," by Edna St. Vincent Millay; "Experience," by Edith Wharton; and "As Kingfishers Catch Fire," by Gerald Manley Hopkins.
"I would say one of my favorites right now is Hopkins," Valadez said. "I love what he does with sound in his poetry and his nature poems, and how he brings the sound to life with the internal rhythm within his poetry."
Practice sessions run 10 or more hours a week, said Matthew Conley, a teacher at the University of Arizona Poetry Center. He asks Valadez to find unusual ways to practice her poems, recite angrily or "pretending to be the wind," he said.
"They become really personal for me, and so practice isn't a chore," Valadez said. "It's something that I look forward to every day after school."
"They become really personal for me, so practice isn't a chore."

A sampling of my past work and current projects.
International Child Care
Project Details
When ICC came to us, their Drupal site was outdated, disorganized, and difficult to maintain. While Zach gave them a beautiful new design, I re-engineered the back-end from the ground up. The result was a site that is appealing to both visitors and content managers.
Project Details
"MyCalvary" is the working title for the next version of the Calvary Bible Church website. Whereas the current site emphasizes official news from the church office, the new site will introduce Web 2.0 elements to create an online community for Calvary's members.
In development
Kerwin Electric
Project Details
This website, for Kalamazoo-based electricians Kerwin Electric, was another collaboration with graphic designer Zach DeYoung. The result is a pixel-perfect implementation of Zach's design, using subtle CSS3 and jQuery effects for extra shine.
This site is not yet live
UBB.threads integration
Project Details
MacTech Magazine and Christians in Recovery asked me to create a simple module to integrate their UBB.threads-based forums with their Drupal websites. We then contributed the module to the Drupal community; it's available for free on drupal.org.
Carl Walker, Inc.
Project Details
In 2008, Carl Walker, Inc. hired me to convert their static HTML site to Drupal. The following year, they asked me to implement a new design created by E.B. Lane. The site features a jQuery image gallery, custom plug-ins for the CCK and Views modules, and a custom module for processing client surveys.
Divide the Word
Project Details
Divide the Word Ministries (now renamed 2 Make Him Famous) is the homepage of Seth Kniep, a prolific blogger, author, and evangelist. In 2008, Zach and I redesigned and reorganized his site on Drupal to better handle the vast number of articles, podcasts, and videos he produces.
Calvary Bible Church
Project Details
My first Drupal project was for Calvary Bible Church, a large independent church in Kalamazoo, MI. Originally built on Drupal 4.7, then updated to D5, this design has served successfully as the church's main communications hub since 2007. It was also the first of my many collaborations with graphic designer Zach DeYoung.

Community Notes
November proved to be an interesting month in the Linux and Free Software communities. Things started out pretty normally, with another successful Ubuntu release and the accompanying "Ubuntu Below Zero" hacker gathering in Montreal. We also saw a new distribution from RedHat (their Enterprise Directory distribution) and some turbulent times for a couple of other vendors. By the middle of the month, Microsoft was hinting that it might finally standardize the Microsoft Office file formats under an international body, leading some to wonder if they were trying to turn over a new leaf. But alas, it didn't last. As the month came to an end, Microsoft drew fire from the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) in a scandal that many Free Software enthusiasts feel has tainted the UN World Summit on Information Society.

"We love this recipe! I make a couple of minor changes. We select the ham because it goes so well with the honey mustard. My changes are to use cream of celery soup instead of chicken and I add some garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt, and pepper."
"1/1/08: I made these for my husband's family get-together before Christmas. They were devoured! I did many different finger foods, and wanted something that was a little more substantial, but still small. I used a dozen nice size dinner rolls, and used 2 slices of thin ham and 1/2 slice swiss cheese per sandwich. I also used dry mustard instead of..."
"This recipe has a wonderful, mild flavor. Both of my kids loved it! My DH wanted me to put ground beef in it, but I wanted to make it exactly as written. It is such a great side to so many dishes and is a wonderful main dish as well. I also want to try it with salsa, colby jack cheese, and taco seasoning for a Mexican version. Thanks for posting a..."
"I was looking for a pork chop recipe for a slow cooker, and this is the one I decided to try. I browned the chops in nonstick spray, but otherwise followed the exact amounts and directions. Chops were perfectly tender and cooked through in 5 hours on low in my cooker. I only had 6 chops, so there was a LOT of leftover sauce. Everyone in the family..."
"Perfect mac and cheese. My standard recipe for all holiday gatherings with my in-laws. I could eat this out of the pan without ever putting it in the oven. My only additions are a dash of freshly grated nutmeg and about 4 ounces of velveeta added to the Cracker Barrel cheeses. The only mac and cheese that every family member will eat. Thanks for a..."
"I made this for a get together with some friends from church. I picked this recipe because it didn't contain alcohol. It was a huge hit! I doubled the recipe, sauteed the onion with a little garlic in a pat of butter and drizzle of olive oil, then used part milk, part 1/2 and 1/2, and used only 12 ounces of cream cheese adding in 4 ounces of velve..."
"Just mixed this together for todays lunch. Doing South Beach again, and this was the perfect lunch for me! I omitted the optional raisins and sugar, but might add crasins next time, since I love the cranberry flavor in chicken salad. Used a little less low fat mayonnaise and nuts. Served on a bed of greens. Creamy, crunchy perfectly textured and s..."
"Quick, simple, and delicious! I was under the weather and didn't feel like standing in front of the stove, so I chose this. It goes together in a snap and has a wonderful taste and texture. My only changes were to add minced onion to the sauce instead of topping the chicken with sliced onions, and I omitted the optional almonds. A real family plea..."
"What a lifesaver! I was making a broccoli casserole for a church Easter egg hunt, and had everything I needed except Cheez Whiz. I only needed 1 cup, so I reduced the cheese to 1/2 lb, and the milk to 4 ounces. But I was using regular milk, so I thought that using 1 egg yolk and the full 1 Tablespoon of flour were necessary to give me the right co..."

University of Michigan MSA Organizes Event with Dr. Sherman Jackson
February 18, 2010 by TMO · Leave a Comment
By TMO Stringer
Ann Arbor–This past weekend an event was organized by the MSA of the University of Michigan, attended by an audience of about 600 people.
The highlight at the event from the students was the presentation of skits from boys and girls. The consensus of those in attendance was that the girls' skits were better.
The keynote speaker was Dr. Sherman Jakson, who exhorted MSA students and other Muslims not to despair despite the present anti-Muslim climate, because they have a legacy to carry.
He reminded the audience that the Holy Prophet (s) faced terrible terrible hardships, but that he never relented in his mission.
Professor Jackson also emphasized to the students that they should trust people based on thier actions, and not based on their religion. He gave the example of when our Prophet (s) left Mecca for Madina, among others was one mushrik whose trust Prophet (s) valued, based on his honorable actions and deeds.
Thirdly, Professor Jackson said that MSA is an important institution. Citing his own example he said "I am one of its beneficiaries." When he accepted Islam in 1977–when the Iranian revolution was at its height, the Palestinian issue and other similar problems were just creeping up–when we turn to MSA, he said, that was our source of inspiration. We put our intellectual resources, physical resources and financial resources–that provided us focus and solace. He concluded by saying; "MSA is the future of Islam in America and elsewhere." He further said: " Every one in MSA has a place to work and each one of you is important for the vision and mission of MSA".
When the five TMO Foundation scholarships were announced, students cheered it with approval and appreciation.
