Onondaga Community College offers a meal plan for all of the students living on ca.m.pus at OCC. This is a defined meal plan which lets you eat a certain number of meals per week. All students living on ca.m.pus must have a meal plan and have automatically been signed up for 8 meals per week. You can also change your meal plan from 8 meals per week to 10 or 12 meals per week by filling out the Meal Plan Change form.
The meals will generally consist of one entrée, two sides and one beverage. To make it easier to tell what is available, we coded all menu items are coded by shapes depicted on the signage:
One Entree - Star Sample entrée options are: Omelets for breakfast; Philly Steaks, Pasta Station Entrées, and Gourmet Wraps for lunch and dinner
Two Sides - Circle Sample sides are: English Muffins for breakfast; Garden Salads, French Fries, and Seasonal Fruits for lunch and dinner
One Beverage - Square Sample beverages are: Orange Juice, Coffee, Soy Milk, and 2% Milk
If you take one red item, two blue items and one green item per meal that is a meal. Students are permitted to eat one meal during a meal period. They are permitted to eat as many meals weekly as it is designated on their purchase plan.
To make the plans more flexible we have also included "Flex Dollars" into all of the meal plans. Flex money can be used just like cash for any item sold in the Gordon Café, Mawhinney Café, Starbucks or Fresh Express, just like regular money. Do you want that Large Mocha at Starbucks or that pint of Ben and Jerry's from Mawhinney Cafe? Use your flex dollars to pay for it!
Accepts Meal Plans, Flex Dollars, Declining Balance Student Cards, Cash and Credit
The Gordon Servery will be open Monday – Friday from 10:15 a.m. – 10:45 a.m. and from 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. for Grab &a.m.p; Go purchases. Meal plans are not accepted during these time intervals.
Fresh Express Accepts Meal Plans (Limited Menu), Flex Dollars, Declining Balance Student Cards, Cash and Credit
Starbucks Flex Dollars, Declining Balance Student Cards, Cash and Credit
Mawhinney Accepts Meal Plans (Limited Menu), Flex Dollars, Declining Balance Student Cards, Cash and Credit
How many meals can I eat a week? You can eat as many meals a week as the meal plan you signed up for.
How many meals can I eat a day? You can use up to three meals a day- breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Can I use more than 1 meal during a meal period? To ensure that you have plenty of meals to eat through the week you can only use one meal paper meal period.
What happens if I do not eat all my meals during a week? The meals do not carry from week to week. Once a week is over, Friday after dinner any unused meals are lost for the week.
What is a meal? Generally a meal consists of one entrée, two sides and one beverage. To make it easier to tell what is available we coded all menu items by shape and color, depicted on the signage:
One Entree - Red Star
One Beverage - Green Square
Two Sides - Blue Circle
If you take one red item, two blue items and one green item per meal that is a meal.
What if I want a different side to go with the meal than what is advertised? As long as you take one red, two blues and one green everything is great, the choices of items are up to you.
What if I want something extra with my meal? If you want something extra with your meal you can always pay for it with cash, credit card, declining balance card or you can use your flex.
What is Flex? It is an added bonus with all meal plans. It can be used like cash at OCC Gordon Café, Mawhinney Café, Starbucks or Fresh Express. Flex dollars can be used to purchase any items at any of these locations.
When can I use my Flex? You can use it during any operating hours at any dining outlet on any meal plan day. You can also spend as much as you wish at any time during the semester.
What if I do not use all of my flex? Flex dollars will roll from fall to spring semester but not year to year.
What if I lose my Lazer Card? Your Lazer Card is necessary to use a meal plan and your flex at dining establishments. If you lose your card you must get a new one at the Lazer Card office located in the lobby of the SRC Arena. For your protection, you are allowed to use your card only, not someone else's, at any time in the cafeteria.
What if I forget to bring my Lazer Card? If you forget your Lazer Card, you will need to pay for your meal using cash, credit or declining balance. Save your receipt and return it to the cafeteria within 24 hours and we will refund your meal and swipe your card to deduct the meal.
What if I want to add or adjust a meal plan? All changes and additions to meal plans must be completed at the Residence Life Office. All changes must be completed before close of business on Friday of the third full week of each semester.
What if I have special dietary restrictions? a.m.erican Food and Vending is committed to providing nutritional meals for all students, including students with special dietary needs, and will always provide meals that are vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, low calorie and/or low sugar. If your dietary needs/restrictions are more specific than the ones just listed, please fill out the Special Dining Request form.

Nellie McKay
Appearing at Pebble Hill
February 15, 2015 at 2:00 P.M.
The Big Room at Pebble Hill's Main House
Nellie McKay is not easy to categorize. Her music is as tuneful and clever as the best of the Great American Songbook - part cabaret, part sparkly pop. But beneath the charming melodic surface is a wit that cuts, and a sharply tuned social conscience.
"…musical composer Nellie McKay steals the spotlight (and most of the laughs) with her sharply tongue-in-cheek tunes...an endearing, multi-faceted performance artist...combined charm and biting wit." – Jan Rosenberg, Show Business Weekly
The Washington Post wrote, "McKay's music evokes the lost elegance of pre-Elvis pop because she recognizes that such stylishness and wit are worth pursuing. But these goals inevitably collide with the realities of money, sex and politics, and she documents those collisions in her tongue-in-cheek lyrics, emphatic beats and bubbly melodies."
McKay has appeared on numerous TV shows, and her music has been heard on Weeds, Grey's Anatomy,NCIS, Privileged, Nurse Jackie, and Mad Men. She has won a Theatre World Award for her Polly in the Broadway production of The Threepenny Opera. She acted and sang in the film PS I Love You and wrote and performed the song score for the Rob Reiner film Rumor Has It. Her writing has appeared in The Onion, Interview, and The New York Times Book Review.

Lowry Landfill was a dumping ground for city and commercial waste between 1966 and 1980. Located near Aurora, the Denver-owned, 480-acre former landfill contains acid sludge, petroleum-based oils, pesticides, paint, varnish, sewage sludge and hospital waste, some of which has seeped into the groundwater. The EPA placed Lowry on the NPL in 1984. More than 200 companies and municipalities have since been identified as polluters, including Coors, Conoco, IBM, Gates Rubber Company, the City of Lakewood, Syntex Chemicals Inc. and Shattuck Chemical Company. The EPA estimates cleanup will be done in 2003.
Marshall Landfill once posed a threat to the drinking supply of Louisville residents, but since the site was placed on the NPL in 1983, the problems have been solved. The landfill, located about three miles southeast of Boulder, had leached contaminants into a ditch that carried drinking water from the Marshall Reservoir to Louisville. Between 1965 and 1974, the landfill accepted septic waste, sewage sludge and unidentified hazardous wastes. Benzene, trichloroethylene (TCE) and barium were just some of the dangerous pollutants found in the surface- and groundwater. The parties mainly responsible for the contamination -- the City of Boulder, Browning-Ferris Industries (now owned by Allied Waste Industries) and Cowdrey Corporation -- agreed to pay for the cleanup and to build and operate a water-treatment plant. The contamination has been cleaned up, but the site won't be taken off the NPL until groundwater standards are met.
Rocky Flats is doubtless Colorado's most notorious Superfund site. In 1952, the United States Department of Energy started making plutonium for use in nuclear weapons at this flat spot near the foothills northwest of Denver. The EPA and the FBI shut down Rocky Flats in 1989 for environmental violations, and three years later, after the Cold War ended, the government decided not to resume the production of nuclear-weapons parts at Rocky Flats. But the damage had been done. Liquid plutonium stored in leaky drums, unlined disposal trenches, seeping underground tanks and on-site landfills left much of the soil and groundwater at the 300-acre industrial area contaminated. Other radioactive elements such as uranium and americium have also been discovered in the soil. In 1999, the first shipments of waste were transported from Rocky Flats to a waste isolation plant in New Mexico, and later, more waste was transferred to Nevada. The cleanup effort is expected to continue until 2007.
Rocky Mountain Arsenal was established by the United States Army in 1942 to produce weapons during World War II. Over the next three years, the arsenal made 155,000 tons of chlorine, mustard gas and arsenic trioxide, in addition to 87,000 tons of other chemical products. Following the war, the arsenal leased parts of the 17,000-acre property to companies such as Colorado Fuel and Iron, which made chemicals there; Julius Hyman and Company, which manufactured pesticides; and Shell Oil Company, which produced pesticides, insecticides and herbicides at the arsenal until 1982. The Army and the private companies improperly disposed of waste, leaving behind tainted groundwater. The arsenal was placed on the NPL in 1987, and Congress later passed a law designating the arsenal as a National Wildlife Refuge when the cleanup is complete in 2011.
Summitville, in the San Juan Mountains of southwestern Colorado, was a gold mine that leaked cyanide and acidic and metallic water into the Alamosa River. The contamination killed the aquatic life and got into the irrigation waters that serve the farmland downstream. Summitville had been mined off and on since the 1870s; in the 1980s, Summitville Consolidated Mining Company took over until 1992, when it declared bankruptcy. That year, the EPA stepped in to prevent a catastrophic overflow of cyanide-laden water from seeping into the river; two years after that emergency remediation, the EPA placed Summitville on the NPL. Although the cleanup was expected to have been complete by 2004, the EPA recently announced that it may actually take a century or more.
Uravan Uranium was originally a radium-recovery plant in the early 1900s, but this site in Montrose County was later converted to a uranium- and vanadium-processing facility until it closed in 1984. Radioactive waste from the site, which was operated by Union Carbide, contaminated the air, soil and groundwater around the 450-acre plant, as well as the San Miguel River. Uravan Uranium was added to the NPL in 1986. Umetco, a subsidiary of Union Carbide, is paying for the cleanup, which should be done in 2005.
Vasquez Boulevard and I-70 includes parts of the northeast Denver neighborhoods of Elyria, Swansea, Cole and Globeville. The area was the site of three smelting plants -- the Globe, Argo and Omaha-Grant -- which began refining gold, silver, copper, lead and zinc in the 1870s; the Globe plant still operates. Soil samples in residential yards showed high levels of arsenic and lead, so in 1998, the EPA removed soil outside eighteen homes; the area was placed on the NPL in 1999 and will likely remain a Superfund site until at least 2005.

House committee substitutes own state budget plan for Gov. Mike Pence's version
House version contains no cut in state income tax
INDIANAPOLIS - Gov. Mike Pence said he won't give up fighting for his 10 percent state income tax reduction.
That promise came several hours after the Indiana House Ways and Means Committee adopted the alternate Republican budget that contains no tax cut.
On Friday, Pence issued a statement saying he was very disappointed with the House Republican budget, but that didn't stop Republicans on the committee from voting unanimously Monday to substitute their spending plan for Pence's original version.
The House Republican plan puts in substantial new money for schools and roads, but contains no income tax cut.
Republican lawmakers have made it clear that a tax cut is not at the top of their list of priorities.
"Education. Education. Education," said Chairman Tim Brown, R-Crawfordsville. "Close to our hearts. Close to our minds. Number one line item. Number one ticket in the House budget. To help the economy, help workforce training, and to help programs to stimulate economic innovation."
But when reporters approached Pence after a meeting with 4-H students and the New Castle Little League team, he made it clear he will continue to fight for the tax cut, and he insisted that Indiana can cut taxes substantially and stimulate the state's economy while still providing plenty of money for education and transportation.
"Leadership has said repeatedly that the possibility of income tax relief is still very much alive," said Pence. "We take them at their word. But Hoosiers can take me at my word."
Meanwhile, House Democrats criticized the Republican budget, saying it isn't clear where the funds for many parts of the education budget, like vouchers and pre-kindergarten, are coming from, and they believe it will hurt urban schools.
"I think urban schools are going to really hurt in regards to this," said Rep. Greg Porter, D-Indianapolis. "They've got money following the child, but it follows the child for some, but not all."
The committee will vote Tuesday on other amendments and then the full bill, which will then advance to the House floor.

Checking in this morning as I get ready to make the 43 mile trek to the Kansas City airport for a short hop to Chicago…
I'm looking forward to the Midwest Produce Expo that opens today, followed by the U.S. Apple Association Marketing Conference on Thursday and Friday.
As I scan headlines from the web this morning, I see the U.S. Department of Agriculture released a new report on Chilean stone fruit.
While the general perception is that stone fruit is fading in Chile, the report indicates that while growers have been pulling out some blocks of fruit, they have been replanting orchards with greater density and yields.
What's more, weather conditions seem to favor a bounce-back year for peaches and nectarines. Cherry output has been rising recently, despite disappointments in deliverable volume because of weather events and the fragility of the fruit. In this passage the USDA report details some of the particulars behind the unstoppable cherry push:
The cherry production area continues to expand significantly every year. Industry sources have indicated that during last few years between 1,500 to 2,500 hectares yearly have been planted, totaling almost 18,000 hectares today. Close to 40 percent of the total planted area is still not in production or is in the incremental stage of production. As a result cherry production should increase significantly during the next few years if we have favorable weather patterns. Cherries are one of the few fruits that producers are increasing their planted area significantly in spite of the continued fall of the dollar value against the peso which is hurting the fresh fruit industry in general by increasing production costs which are in pesos and diminishing returns which are in dollars. Producers have expanded the production period by introducing more weather resistant varieties and planting these further south.
The main varieties planted are Bing, Sweet Heart and Santina which together represent over 88 percent of the total cherries exported. Among the main new-planted varieties are Lapins, Van, Stella and Summit. A total of over 70 varieties are planted in Chile.
Although Chile has great potential for cherry production, every year the total output is affected by both climatic factors and/or the extreme delicacy of the fruit. A pre-harvest rain or other adverse weather conditions can damage the delicate skin of the fruit. These factors make the fruit production very expensive, as it requires extreme care and specialized labor. The harvest can only be done by hand; there is no mechanization. Chile has great potential because it is one of the few countries that can produce off season in the southern hemisphere for the large quantity of consumers of the northern hemisphere. Chile has an advantage over other countries like South Africa where there is cheap labor, but average temperatures are too high. New Zealand does not have enough suitable land for cherry production and Australia has water problems. Chile produces 2 percent of total world production but it meets almost 80 percent of the off-season demand.

Hey folks,
On top of my stone patio, I'd like to put in a 5' x 5' planter box that's 3' tall and I'd like plant a tree in there. Something like a cherry tree or crab apple or japanese maple or pear tree, etc. Something that's bare trunk for the first 6'-8', and then branches out at the top. Hoping for something around 15'-20' tall with a 10'-15' diameter at the top. What trees similar to what I described would grow well in a planter box in Massachusetts (bearing in mind it will be kept outside all winter)? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Acer ginnala (amure maple) would be my first choice if you want a deciduous tree. It's extremely cold hardy (to Z3), which means it should be fine there w/o protection, responds well to pruning, and isn't too fussy. Al |
- Posted by nullqwerty 6 (My Page) on Wed, Aug 1, 12 at 9:42
Looks like a really nice tree! I'm actually planting 2 trees in the same manner and think I might use that as one of them. Any others? Or of the ones I mentioned above, would they work well? Like, how about the Japanese Maple? Thanks |
I just Googled the amur maple, and it seems it's considered an invasive species in the North. Just wanted to mention it sooner rather than later, if it matters to anyone. http://www.dnr.state.mn.us/invasives/terrestrialplants/woody/amurmaple.html (Couldn't save this as a clickable link - for some reason GW doesn't recognize it.) |
N - because your tree will be unprotected, to avoid cold injury to roots it should be listed as hardy to at least 1 zone colder than yours, and 2 zones colder would be better. That's why I picked A ginnala - it's very hardy and an attractive tree that's easy to care for. I don't think you'll have much luck with the Japanese maples. Some other very hardy deciduous trees that lend themselves well to shaping: Celtis occidentalis (hackberry) Al |

I.e. can I count on > it being around for a while? I figure this question is a developer type > question rather than ordinary user type. You might want to look at Documentation/ABI/ in the kernel source tree if you are curious about sysfs files like this. As you have figured out, this really doesn't mean what you think it does. In fact, there's no way to determine what I think you are asking for, which is "can this disk go away", as really, any disk can go away at any point in time, just like any disk can show up at any point in time as well. Think PCI hotplug systems, thunderbolt, pcmcia, ExpressCard, Firewire, USB, SCSI, etc. So you need to implement stuff such that you are not dependant on the bus type. If you see a new disk, act on it, it's that simple. But note, please do not be automounting disks from uevents directly. As someone else said on this thread, "those that have not learned from the lessons of udev, will implement it poorly". We learned that this is not a good idea at all, and should be left to userspace helper applications that listen for dbus messages. Both GNOME and KDE work this way quite well, so I would be very wary of reimplementing the wheel. Actually with all the hype about mdev these days, why not just use a 3 year old version of udev (or maybe 4), that is probably what mdev is at as far as functionality goes. Why not just fork udev from then and go forward from that? What exactly are you not liking in udev that makes you want to get rid of it so badly? What is it doing that bothers people so much? Good luck, greg k-h

CORE Federal Credit Union recently awarded six community outreach grants to local organizations. In honor of the one year anniversary of opening its new Morrisville Office, and as a way to thank the community for their support during its first year in the area, CORE sponsored a community grant program for not-for-profit organizations serving southern and central Madison County.
"We have been thrilled with the warm welcome and level of support we have received at our new office from the residents of central and southern Madison County," said CORE CEO Bill Sweeney. "As a not-for-profit financial cooperative ourselves, we always look for ways to give back to other organizations in the communities that we serve."
CORE received more than $25,000 in donation request from various groups and organizations in Madison County. "While it was a difficult decision and we wish we could have funded them all," said Sweeney "we were very pleased with the number and quality of proposals that were submitted."
CORE Federal Credit Union awarded grants to Caz Cares, Community Action Partnership for Madison County, Madison County Office for the Aging, Give Us This Day Food Pantry, Morrisville Fire Department, and Morrisville Community Church Presbyterian Woman's Clothes Basket.

Woodland Elementary School Kindergartener "Breaks the Bank"
Student winners have 60 seconds to show their classmates what a good saver they are by depositing over-sized coins into a giant piggy bank. The coins are minted with ESM School Superintendent Donna DeSiato's face (DeSiato Dimes) and CORE Federal Credit Union CEO Bill Sweeney's face (Sweeney Cents). For each coin the student deposits, they will get to smash a small piggy bank filled with cash. Bank at school student winners get to keep all of the cash from the piggy banks they smash and have the funds deposited to his CORE savings account.
"Break the Bank" is sponsored by CORE Federal Credit Union as an incentive to encourage students to save consistently. Over the past few years, the school district and credit union have collaborated on a variety of financial literacy programs to help encourage good savings habits and increase student financial literacy, including a high school student run credit union, a district-wide bank at school program, and student facilitated adult education seminars.

In general, installing newer versions of drivers or other software can enhance the overall performance of your product as well as add new features. Updating drivers and software can also fix problems. Typically, the driver available for download on the HP Web site is the most up to date.
Your HP printer doesn't know what to do without a driver to manage it. Without a driver to execute your commands, a printer can't do anything. It needs guidance.
Also, drivers help computers identify and run installed hardware (printer). Without drivers, computers cannot distinguish between a sound card and a modem. Most computer devices and peripherals need drivers to run, which means that computer accessories, like printers, also need drivers to function.
Choosing and installing the correct drivers for your printer is often a key component of computer system configuration.

Man proposes to fiancee in pumpkin patch
BY SUSAN DEMAR LAFFERTY firstname.lastname@example.com October 24, 2013 8:58PM
Jason Mazzorana, of Mokena, proposed to Angie Wasso, of Frankfort, in the pumpkin patch at Bengtson's Pumpkin Farm in Homer Glen. | Susan DeMar Lafferty~Sun-Times Media
Article Extras
Updated: November 26, 2013 6:44AM
Yes, Linus, perhaps dreams really do come true in a great pumpkin patch.
Preschool teacher Angie Wasso, of Frankfort, said that on Wednesday night she dreamed she got engaged three times.
The next day, Thursday, while she and other teachers took students from the Algonquin Primary Center in Park Forest on a field trip to Bengtson's Pumpkin Farm in Homer Glen, her boyfriend Jason Mazzorana popped the question.
With a group of 3- and 4-year-old preschoolers as their witnesses, Mazzorana got down on one knee and proposed to Wasso, and presented her with her mother's diamond engagement ring. Who could say no to that?
Certainly not Wasso, who said she was shaking and "in shock" afterward.
With the help of Anna Bengtson, Mazzorana, of Mokena, arranged his special moment a few weeks in advance, made a sign and decorated a pumpkin, which was waiting for Wasso when she and her preschoolers arrived in the pumpkin patch after watching the pig races.
Mazzorana helped out with her class last year when they came to Bengtson's.
"We both love Halloween and we both love kids," he said, explaining why he chose this site.
But he also wanted to catch her off guard and surprise her, which is difficult to do, he said.
"I knew she would have so many distractions today because she was in work mode," he said.
"Oh, my God. I'm in shock," Wasso said. "I couldn't figure out why he wanted me to come here (to the pumpkin patch) so badly. I was headed for the corn maze. I didn't want to carry pumpkins around all day."
She still wasn't sure why she was there until her beau told her to look around. Then she noticed the sign he made that read, "Angie will you marry me?" which was decorated with hearts he proudly made himself.
She was also surprised that he was able to get her mother's ring out of her jewelry box without her noticing it was gone.
But the night before, Wasso said, she dreamed three times she got engaged, but the faces in her dreams were not clear.
"I guess I dreamed that because I watched 'Grey's Anatomy' and someone got engaged on the show," she said.
What if she said, "No?"
Mazzorana was prepared for that as well. After she said "yes," he handed her a note with a scowling candy corn face on it that read, "If you don't say 'yes' I will be forced to have crunchy eyebrows!"
"I always say that to my students," Wasso said. "I tell them they can't come in my classroom with crunchy eyebrows (a sad face)."

I am married to a sleazy lazy nasty manipulative jerk, I am aware of what I have at hand here and the damage it has caused to my self esteem and my daughters way of looking at him. Okay so after dealing with a man with the mind set of my husband for 8 years... I have gone through the deep pain and suffering for the first 6 years and now I am in survival mode until I can get out.
He smokes pot and gets drunk every night, he looks at porn, he masturbates everyday, he flirts with other woman and a gay friend he has, he watches violent things on tv like murder investigations, cops, he watches sports and hunting which I don't have any uncomfortable feelings about but he is constantly laying on the couch with the tv on and day after day after day after day it just gets to me,,,, he sleeps and watches when he is not working. He is intrigued by violence. He constantly wants me to send him dirty pics via text message all the time, I told him that is not my style and to please stop asking me to do it. He says I should be happy he is home and not out doing other things Like titty bars or with other women... he is cocky and judgmental of others imperfections, he is perverted and has no problem with that, he cannot have an intelligent conversation with me, if I bring something important up he degrades it and or just does not say anything at all. He tells me that I am the one who sees things wrong and that all guys are the same, just like him. This is what he thinks and he insists that I am in denial of the ways of the world. The thing I am afraid of is that I am in survival mode which means 99.9 % of the time I say nothing about his choices of the way he lives anymore and I try to just do my own thing but it is getting to me where I am at the point of almost accepting that he is fine the way he is and that I have no right to make or voice my opinions, I am not familiar with these feelings I have. I am not sure if I am becoming cold and bitter or numb or what. I do not support his ways.. not at all but I am feeling defeated I suppose on the inside and it is really scaring me. I am unemployed - was laid off in February. I am getting my CNA next year starting classes in February, this is a choice I thought about for a long time before finally making the decision to do it. I will take a very very large pay cut by doing this but it is the only realistic thing I can do and I want to get started in the health care field anyway. The pay is just above minimum wage for the first couple of years... this is a problem for me in supporting myself and my daughter but I cannot do a 2 or 4 year degree because of the finances. Please know that my daughter is a healthy 11 year old girl, she is protected by me in very loving ways - she is only her every other week - she is with her dad the other weeks. She is subject to my husbands ways, that is not healthly I know that.. but she is aware and very much allowed to speak her mind about it to me. IT is a messed up situation I KNOW THIS>>>>>>>>>> but I love her with everything I am and she knows and feels it. She does not like him, she is allowed to tell me this and I say to her... we will not be here forever. That is all I can do. I have already beat myself to a pulp for allowing this crap in my life, I am not a low class woman, I have high morals and high standards... I got sucked into this relationship many years ago by trying to help him,,, then thinking that I could change him. I know ----MY BAD, I know that now. I just need a support system to help me through this because I feel like I am sinking into some unknown place by sweeping these issues under the rug day in and day out with him just to avoid the anger bursts from him and to try to keep the tension to a low level until I can get out. I am not sure if I am becoming numb to it... but I dont want to become numb.. I do not want to lose myself completely. I am a very outgoing, happy person with a loving compassionate heart... I dont want to become hard and unfeeling. I would greatly appreciate some mature support please. I don't turn to people too often because I am humiliated about this situation and the few times that I have turned to friends they were so blown away that they had to step out of it for their own good. Thank you |
Follow-Up Postings:
I would call a women's shelter they will help you make the kind of decisions you need to make for the safety of your self and your children. I would like to see someone like that on the receiving end of violence he loves so much. I read a novel about a war veteran who was homeless and very angry. He was walking past a home where someone was screaming. He looked in the window and saw a man beating up his wife, he went in and gave the man some of his own medicine. That is what he ended up doing, saving women and children from men like that. |
Do you feel yourself becoming stronger and more ready to leave? And do you feel you can adequately protect your daughter from her stepfather's undesirable influences? If so, then continuing in 'survival mode' until you can leave is probably the best decision. Or do you feel yourself becomming weaker and more beat down the longer you stay? And is your daughter learning that 'you can't leave until...' and that it's necessary to 'put up with...' things she should never have to accept? If that's the case, then it would be better to leave NOW rather than later, even though financially it would be a disaster. (There are worse disasters than being dead broke.) You may feel powerless now, but it sounds to me like your marriage is making you MORE powerless, not less. You said your daughter spends every other week with her father. Is her father a good parent? Would your daughter be better off staying with him a bit more until you can get on your own two feet? |

Maime... thank you for your message. Yes, these anger filled people are, well...... it is hard to describe in words you have to had lived with one to understand. Just toxic all the way around. |
I see two things.... 1) You can either endure it or you can't. After all these years, I think that question answers itself. 2) You and your daughter may be at risk of serious physical abuse. The great unknown in your situation. IMHO, #2 trumps. Don't wait. Get out now. Do what you have to. Women's shelter or whatever. You can do what you want but don't subject your daughter to this. If not for yourself, at least show your daughter how a strong intelligent woman handles such situations. Assuming husband #1 is a normal human being, perhaps your daughter could be with him full-time until the rest is straightened out. |
"I have high morals and high standards... " Perhaps your pride is stopping you from doing what you know should be done. Sure it will be very hard to leave, but it is the right decision. In survival mode, you just "Do", you just know it is right, and you do it. Would you agree with that ? You are fortunate that you still have the father of your daughter in her life, at least that is a safe refuge for her to go to, until you can sort yourself out. I hope this is the case, anyway. Don't be afraid to ask for help and advice, there are people out there who will help you. Do you have family to confide in ? A good friend, to help you ? Take care. |
I hope he doesn't have a gun in the house. |

THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart...FOR ALL THE MESSAGES... IT is nice to have some support and words of people who have their heads in the right place. I will keep you posted. BTW ___My daughters father is a loving dad but not home very much due to his job, he is not home much at all.... she stays with her step mom ( who is very similar to my husband in nature) and her new baby brother who she loves dearly. I know I made a mistake, I own it and want to be free from it and I will be. I will take these bits of advice and stay focused on the near future. Thank you all.. please contine to write. |
So are you saying your daughter's step mum is like your present husband in nature or your former husband ? Your actions will have more of an impact on your daughter than your words. What would you advise your daughter if she was in the situation you are presently in ? |
- Posted by river_water68 (My Page) on Mon, Nov 16, 09 at 8:34
Yes... that is very true. Actions do speak louder than words. I always feel like I protect her so well but the fact that she is subjected to a negative step father is going to impact her emotions anyway. I am not working right now and I don't have any place where I can stay so I will call around to see if there are any other options through the state or church. Yes her step mother is another anger filled extremely controlling person. Apparatnly she was not like this when he married her but once they moved in together she grew into a monster... taking anything that had to do with me (my daughters mother) out of their house... laid the rules down for everybody even the adults - I did not bow to her but he did and his mother did..... yelling at my daughter, scaring my daughter and the list goes on. I begged and pleaded with her father to get that woman away from my child, I went to attorney after attorney who wanted at leat 5,000.00 to start a custody battle I do not have that kind of money. I called CSP, the poilce, I called my family begging for help or support.. no body wanted to get involved. It has been total hell for the last 4 years. I just want my daughter to be okay..... she says she is, she seems to be, she acts like a normal 11 year old. I tell her what she has experiences is not not not normal and she says she knows this. |
I pity this child. |

I understand where you are coming from, if I was on the other end reading somebody's life story like mine I would feel the same way. It is hard to explain all of the day to day details other than my original post. I have to take care of my personal situation which starts with me. I disparately need non judgmental people who can help me and encourage me not make me feel like a bad parent. I have many things going on here. There is a lot to my story but I continue to say that I protect her very much. Sometimes in some life situations I believe that a parents love will see children through other crap they are subjected to. She is a strong girl with a bright future... we talk about it and I support her and I advise her. I am going to cancel this posting. I appreciate that you all have given your heartfelt advice to me. |
Wow, it sounds like my ex-stepfather got re-married. You could be my mother. She was tied to a man that was violent, lazy, and not very intelligent. I have no idea why she stayed with him, except that she always felt she needed a man. He was also extremely over-sexed; as I was growing up, I could see this about him as he was constantly talking about women, sex, porn, whatever. Unfortunately, as soon as I hit puberty, that attention turned towards me -- I don't think I need to go into detail about what happened. You have an unsure feeling in your gut about this man -- trust that instinct. You may believe that you're protecting her and that she hasn't truly seen what he is, but trust me, kids see a lot more than parents sometimes give them credit for. You don't want her growing up with a skewed idea of what men are like and what a relationship should be. Get out while you can, and before your daughter becomes a victim of this situation, whether it's sexually, or emotionally. |
Sounds like your daughter is getting used to the way he lives and thinks it's "normal". That should tell you something. |

Please go to your nearest community college and talk to the financial aid dept about money for school. You may abe able to also get some stipend to live on while you get your CNA. Also please go to their counseling office and find some free or low cost counseling services because you may be a codependent (You felt sorry for him, wanted to help him and change him. Those are major red flags.) Good luck. Keep us posted? |

I have to echo the words of popi and others. Fast forward 15 or 20 years into the future: would you want your daughter to stay in a situation like the one you describe? You need to think about the fact that she will tolerate the same things you are doing (or worse) because you have shown her that this is a reasonable thing to do. I'd even go further and say that you are also teaching her that it is okay to use someone that you have no love for and no intention of staying with. You are showing your daughter that if the other person is flawed, mean or "bad", you are not required by your moral code to treat him/her fairly and honestly (by being upfront with him about the fact that you do not intend to stay with him and will leave at your first opportunity). Your behaviour says that your values about how to treat people vary according to how nice they are to you. Since your husband and your daughter's step-mother both seem to be modeling unethical behaviour towards a spouse, shouldn't someone here model how to be a person whose values are solid and don't depend on other people's actions? I say this because it is always possible to describe something about someone else's actions that will justify our unethical choices. Don't make it easy for your daughter to do that. Help her become an adult whose standards do not vary depending on what other people do. If she should treat people the way she wants to be treated, then she should do it even if they don't deserve it because it is the right thing to do. I know leaving is easier said than done. I recognize you are in a tough situation but often the right thing is the hard thing, especially when it come to parenting. And I'm not sure I'd have the strength to do it myself, but I hope I would for my kids' sake. If you continue doing what you are doing, at least do it with your eyes open and be fully aware that she will likely become an adult who believes that giving people what they deserve is more important than doing what is right. Good luck. |

wow, this is awful, why do people keep marrying one man after another yet never bother getting education or some kind of profession. now you have nothing to rely on since you never obtained any of that. now time to correct mistakes go to women's shelter and ask for help and advice, and you can get aid and loan for 2-year-degree easily. every community college would do that. so this poor girl has terrible step-father and terrible step-mother yet neither mom nor dad do anything about it. I have no words...it breaks my heart to see how parents allow their children to grown up in a nightmare. get yourself and your daughter HELP. |
If you don't help yourself, then help your daughter. What better reason is there, than that, to take action ? |

Federal and state Financial Aid are the fairy godmothers of women who need to get on their feet. It comes in three types: a GRANT (free money, you do not pay it back), a WORK/STUDY job (the college gives you a job, you get a paycheck. They work around your class hours) and/or a LOW-INTEREST LOAN, which you do not even start re-paying until you leave school. You may get some combo of any of these types of financial aid. How to qualify: they will look at your income from last year, the number of people in your immediate family and the cost of the college or vocational training you want to attend. How to start: You can go to a community college financial aid dept. or use this website: www.fafsa.ed.gov Note that this is a FREE application. There are copy cat websites that charge you, don't use them. Not bragging, but I have personally helped many, many unhappy women get this kind of school money so they can take charge of their lives. If they did it, YOU can do it. "The journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step." |
This is going to be a long, difficult process and you're gong to need support to get through it. The best advice I can offer is for you to attend some al-anon meetings. You'll meet others who've been where you are and have found tools to improve their lives and their children's lives. You're not alone. |

Fancy a whole box of S6 figs?
Posted by Huw,It can be a bit awkward going to the till with a whole box of figs under your arm. For one thing there's no guarantee the shop will sell them to you and the barcode on the box doesn't scan so you often have wait about while the cashier works out what to do.
So, here's a solution to the problem: Amazon.fr is selling complete boxes of 60 for €110, which is about £90, so it's not only convenient, but also £30 cheaper than in the UK!
Order them here: Series 6 minifigs.
16 comments on this article
Whenever I try to order something from Amazon-France, it sets shipping to one-day-instant-delivery for an outrageous 20 Euros and I cannot set it to anything else. Anyone have an idea why and what I can do to change it? I would love to buy a carton of these and some other sets, too.
Bought one. I was going to buy a box in a local toy store soon, but now I dont have to and I've saved some money. Thanks Huw :)
^ Good for you!
I hope the other Amazon divisions pick up on this and offer them as well, although it looks like I could order and ship to the US for €99 (~$127 USD) total. Wonder what the odds they would accept my order are...
Nice price, but I would like to pick it from store =]
Can you buy a box if you live in the United States? I've been looking for one in town but haven't found them any where...
Also available at Amazon.it, although more expensive and only 5 boxes left....
I believe that amazon.it ship to the U.S.; amazon.fr might also, although shipping costs might not make the deal worthwhile.
Speaking of amazon.it (my country):
Series 6 surfaced in late December. Price was 105,58, I obviously placed my order.
On January 6th the order was canceled beacuse "item was no longer available and out of production".
@DrDave: you linked a Marketplace seller. Description reads: item can be shipped to selected extra-EU countries (implying they don't sell to EU countries except Italy of course).
I believe Amazon are matching Pixmania. I noticed this about a week ago.
May work out cheaper with shipping. I'll have a set if someone wants to do a co-buy (UK)
My basic French tells me that normal delivery time on the above is 4 to 7 weeks. Not sure how accurate this is.
What about import duty? I was stung once ordering goods "cheaper" from the US?
^ No import duty if ordering from an EU country for delivery in another EU country.
Price might go down further if they are pricematching Pixmania. I remember for Series 5 it went down to 97 euros. I find that 4 to 7 week window is a pretty generous one and more often than not, it will get there much sooner. I don't buy boxes though, so take what I wrote with a grain of salt
Hmm...good thing you helped all these people, Huw! :)
Took a chance and ordered it, so we'll see if Amazon.fr ships to New York or cancels the order. Total with shipping came out to €99.56.
I have considered buying whole boxes of minifigs, but I decided against it because after completing a set of minifigs, I'd then be left with 44 minifigs that I'd probably never be able to shift.

I'm planning a cold corn salad/relish/salsa/whatever as a side for a potential beach dinner. (Pulled pork being the main focus.) I don't have a particular recipe in mind, was just planning on tossing it with a bit of oil, vinegar, cherry or grape tomatoes, red onion and some herbs, possibly a little fresh mozz, but I'm on the fence about whether to use the corn raw straight off the cob or cook it a bit. I've thought about frying or broiling just until it's got a bit of a char. Thoughts?
Recipes welcome, but I want to keep it pretty simple and "fresh" tasting. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Grill it and cut of off the cob or use TJ's frozen roasted corn. |
I'd also give it a quick char on a hot grill leaving the corn basically raw. With pulled pork, I'd add minced jalapeno & lime (instead of the vinegar) with cilantro and leave the cheese for another time. /tricia |
For corn salads, I usually cut the raw corn off the cob first and then give it a couples of minutes on high in a covered dish in the microwave. |

Raw corn has a tendency to turn starchy. dcarch |

Thanks all. I'm thinking a quick char on the grill. Tricia - Thanks for knocking some sense into me re the cheese; evidently all the talk of caprese salads this summer got the best of me for a moment! |
I would also do a quick char on the grill. I always do that and put a few bags in the freezer for salads. |
Quick, easy, simple and very tasty. CORN RELISH/SALAD jude |
This is the one of the best salads I know. I found it on Food and Wine's site (link below) Warm Corn Chowder Salad with Bacon and Cider Vinegar 1. 4 thick slices of bacon (4 ounces), cut crosswise 1/2 inch thick I just served this today to vegetarian friends. I subbed a handful of shitake mushrooms for the bacon, and stirred in a tablespoon of white miso. Everyone took seconds while groaning that they were stuffed. We had this with grilled swordfish and lemon caper sauce. Cheryl |

Here is a really good corn salad from Penzeys. Found in the summer catalog. When I made it I used fresh corn cooked and cut off the cob. Murphy |
Here is a link that might be useful: http://www.penzeys.com/cgi-bin/penzeys/recipes/r-penzeysMexicanCornSalad.html
IF you need another idea, I've made this one several times and it is wonderful whether served as a salad on the side or with tortilla chips as an appetizer. I do add a little honey to the mix, I like the sweet hot combination and it highlights the mango a little more. Alexa From EatingWell: This simple, fresh-tasting salad adds delicious variety to grilled foods, such as salmon, halibut, chicken or pork. Browning the corn in a skillet gives it a nutty, caramelized flavor that contrasts with the sweetness of the mango. 8 servings, generous 1/2 cup each Active Time: 45 minutes Total Time: 45 minutes Preparation Tips & Notes |
Can you stand one more...LOL! It's not a "recipe" because it's just something I toss together... But..about 4 ears of cooked corn cut from the cob. cup of cooked black beans...if you use canned, rinse well 1 red onion, chopped ...about 1/2 to 2/3 cup 3 or 4 jalapenos, chopped...or if you are a heat wuss, 1 jalapeno and 1 small green bell pepper 3 or 4 Roma tomatoes, peeled, seeded and chopped handful of chopped cilantro, chopped...or if you think cilantro tastes like soap, use fresh basil Sprinkle of kosher salt drizzle of good olive oil and Juice of one lime....or 2 if they are not juicy limes. |

At least two of the challenges of designing a current-day electric car are based on infrastructure limitations. One, electric cars need to have relatively large, expensive batteries—the one in Chevy's Volt reportedly runs a whopping $6,000—to deliver the kind of range that people want. Two, the car still needs to have an entire gasoline engine wedged in there too, as there aren't enough charging stations to see mass electric car uptake from those who want to cover large distances. But a recent development in the South Korean municipality of Gumi may have an impact on electric car design that far exceeds the public bus system for which it's currently being applied.
The resident eggheads at KAIST (the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, something like South Korea's MIT) have developed a technology called Shaped Magnetic Field in Resonance, or SMFIR. It consists of power cables operating at a specific frequency, which then generates an electromagnetic field. A coil placed within a certain proximity to that field can turn that resonance into electricity. It's essentially wireless charging, but due to the intricacies of the KAIST design, they can achieve an astonishing 85% transmission efficiency.
What Gumi has done is lay SMFIR cable underneath select stretches of road, and then kitted out two electric public buses with the SMFIR coil. The batteries in the buses are quite small—about a third the size of what you'd find in a regular electric vehicle—and planners calculated that due to the high efficiency rate of SMFIR, they only needed to wire 5% to 15% of the bus' route to provide the requisite juice.
The system shows such promise that Gumi has reportedly ordered another ten buses. One obvious concern is radiation emitted by the field, but Extreme Tech reports that "the level of radiation produced by SMFIR is well within the limits imposed by international EMF standards." For skeptics like me who need a bit more reassurance, the bus system's planners have taken the additional step of having the SMFIR charging turn on only when one of the buses approaches. (Fellow skeptics will note that that does nothing to protect the people riding in the bus.)
I'd like to see the health concerns addressed in studies. With those issues answered, the benefits of such a system are easy to see. Wiring just 5% to 15% of any given route, while still a massive undertaking, is a far cry from the fully-electrified highways the previous wireless-car-charging concepts had envisioned. And if electric cars could get by with smaller, cheaper batteries—and boot the gas engine altogether—we would surely see an automotive design revolution.

Comments about Britax B-Ready Red Stroller with Red Chaperone Infant Car Seat:
We got this stroller and free car seat for only [$] from RightStart.. We love everything about the stroller except optional mud guards which we didn't install because they look ugly.. The Chaperon car seat is great if you have large sedan or SUV, however if you have compact or midsized car you should get B-safe instead.. We considered this travel system against UppaBaby Vista, Bugaboo Chameleon and Teutonia custom collection.. At the end we decided they all would work for us, but this one was on sale and came in hot red color which we loved.. Also highly recommend this store as they carry only most popular selling baby products in our Chicago location..

How Smart is your Home?
One of the big, emerging trends in remodeling is smarter, less costly automated controls. It is becoming more and more affordable to control your home's systems – temperature, security, electronics, lighting and more – through a single device, even from an iPhone, iPad or iPod. The average family has more than 80 different devices that can now be controlled with a single system, making it much easier for homeowners to manage things around the house, even when they aren't there. Even cable companies are now offering these services so check around and compare prices.
