A man leans over and says, "Excuse me Ma'am, Your Vagina is showing." And I say "What?", so I look down and the bulge in my dress is very obvious and I think to myself oh my goodness how weird this feels to have my sexual parts on the outside! So I say to him "Thanks for noticing" and as I turn around I awaken to a loud noise in the other room….
This day dream illustrates the M to F transgender condition for those of you who wonder. In SRS (sexual reassignment surgery) the doctors take the penis and turn it outside in to make the vagina. There is a detail description on the website links page. I really did have this image come to me and it made a deep impact. I pray that soon I will be having my turn at the knife and will be able to free myself of the bonds of this physical testosterone factory between my legs. This surgery is not the cure for my condition but it is a step in the direction of balance. It is simply a feeling, but it has been with me to some degree all my life, "this bulge between my legs needs to go". I continue to visualize my new vagina and life without male parts! I am already feeling wonderful being able to dress as I please! I am so close and yet so far.
This past weekend has been a slow one with not much going on. Money is tight right now, so my typical activity for entertainment is watching a movie on TV or playing on SecondLife. I am also doing a lot of sleeping lately. My level of Peace is wonderful. A cute kitten found us this weekend so we now have a new member to the family. My life seems a lot like his, eat, play, sleep. I guess this is the good life ;-) Having Juanita and John to share my life with makes it all that much better also. I am grateful to have them in my life. Romance seems a distant reality for others to me right now. If the right person were to show up right now, I am not sure I would be ready to act on it. With my current physical condition(pre-op), sex does not seem possible or appealing. Physical affection, cuddling, and closeness on the other hand does appeal to me. Not that I need that, but I am sure it would help my mood right now. It is a blessing to not have distractions in my life right now. I can focus on the inner journey and deepening my connection to Spirit. On a side note, I saw a program about the tallest woman in the world this weekend and she put a whole new perspective on my transition. She is a beautiful person and her voice is lower than most men, so that made me feel a little more comfortable with my voice. It is so silly the things we think about sometimes. I know that I am a beautiful and loving person, what else matters?
This journey is bringing me face to face with my own prejudices. By shining the light of awareness upon them they quickly vanish as the darkness does at dawn. The prejudices I speak of are concerning men and women stereotyped roles. The roles we were taught long ago in a different age. Each time I have a thought of women do this or men are supposed to be this way, I am bringing the past into the present and making it true! Is this what I truly want? Do I want the segregated society of men bring home the "bacon" and women are homemakers? Am I really a weak woman who does her chores to make her man happy? Am I a woman that caters to all others needs and ignores her own? Is any woman?
I think not. I am a woman that is free to be me which is transgendered, balanced, and gifted in so many ways. I need not "throw the baby out with the bathwater" so to speak. Since I am 6'11" and a giant woman by most standards I am simply living up to my training. I was raised as a man, so the process of letting that identity go is well underway, but I now realize that I need to review my "ways" and keep that which serves me and embrace that which has not change as yet. One of the habits I have learned is eating quickly and later burping a lot. Not very lady like by most definitions, but it is a part of me that I acknowledge and embrace. My body is far from petite but I can be very feminine just like a tree or a mountain is feminine. In many ways the ocean is feminine and what is larger than the ocean? Size matters not! Since my lungs are large the sound echoes quite a bit making my voice lower than average for a woman, but not for a woman of my size. The resonant temper of my voice is feminine when I am conscious of it, but sometimes slips back to old habits if I am excited or not paying attention. I hear it takes a few years to move past this habit. I can remember being taught to lower my voice and sound more masculine and project my voice with force, hmmm. Something I wish I had not learned so well. Projecting the voice to be heard is a good thing, and this I will keep. This is what re-creating ourselves is all about anyway. Keeping that which serves us and letting go the rest! I am not sure how it serves me to be transgender but I do know that this is the path I choose long before I was born. I know this to be a gift of insight that I would otherwise not enjoy. I see both male and female and know that I am neither and both. If the choice to check "other" instead of "male or female" existed on forms that is the one I would choose. At the risk of sounding prejudice, I am happy to be me and accept me as I am. I expecting nothing in particular other than humble greatness, or something I call humanness. I see women as equal to men in a opposite sort of way, for instance weakness is our greatest strength. Softness and passivity give us the ability to bend and not break. Sensitivity and intuition are natural gifts that both men and women posses but most men cannot afford to develop in the harsh world they live in. We are the way we are for a reason, guided and shaped by the environment we place ourselves in. Let us all embrace this and see it for what it is, a gift!
This week has been rough. I seem to have gotten "the crud" and am sleeping a lot, and little things seem to be bothering me, silly mistakes and such. I really want to go to the support group meeting tonight but don't feel like it. I so miss having someone to share my thoughts and feelings with. Oh well, I will cry - it always seems to make me feel better.
Gratitude seems to be a constant theme with this blog, but it is appropriate. It feels so good to be living my life; the one I came here to experience. All my prayers are answered! I step forward with Love in my heart to share with all whom I meet. Each day we create ourselves a new. We wake up and look ourselves in the mirror and say "I Love You"! Our lives reflect that thought - just look around. Loving what you see in the mirror is the doorway to happiness. Our lives are far more magical than most of us give credit for. I am far more wealthy today than I have ever been. I may not know what it is like to be a man or a woman, but I do know what it is like to be myself. This is each of our purposes in this world to simply be ourselves. By opening to Holy Spirit's guidance the rest is easy!
Holy Spirit, make me an instrument of your Peace.
After doing some checking I realized that my one year anniversary for being on horomones is quickly approaching, and come May 1 it will be one year. Looking back I can see a few changes in my out look on life and also in my preferences. I enjoy writing far more than I used to and while I still enjoy photography that has taken a back seat to my writing. My career as a MRI tech may be over, I have applied for many jobs and yet none materialize. Since I have many things about the medical community that I don't agree with that may have something to do with it. Life so often seems like a self fulfilling prophecy and I don't like seeing sick and injured people all day long. Before I can go back to working in the medical community I must be able to see people for who they are, The Christ. Or to say that another way, to see people as the "littlest angel" here to fulfill a promise and demonstrate Love. I am getting better at doing this, so we will see where my career goes. JTV is fun and is satisfying my needs right now. Of course I am still a minister too, but just haven't decided how best to allow that to serve us all. What do you think about me being a Transgender Life Coach? or simply a life coach. I guess my greatest challenge is asking for financial reward, i.e. self worth. Saying is one thing, doing is a whole new ball game. I know a lot, and love to learn (remember), so I should be a natural.... Thank God for all my gifts!
Happy Friday the 13th! When I was living in california I learned some practical things about transgender living. One of those is that when dressed as a woman not only is it important to act like a lady but to live like one too (all identities are role play), meaning use the women's restroom. Even if you are not all that "passible" use the women's restroom because that is who you really are anyway. If you aren't involved with the TG world then you may not have considered this, but I want to share a few thoughts here and if you would like to comment, I welcome that. The best estimate from what I find on the internet is about 10% of the USA population is Gay/Lesbian which means that 1 in 10 people you meet are homosexual and ~1% are Transgender (1 in 100). Since many GLBT's live "closeted" this is only an estimate. Right now in the USA we have separate bathrooms for men and women. I realize that this practice has a very long history and I don't want to get into that, but just think about it. Why do we need public restrooms to be segregated? The world is a very diverse place with people of all types, different races, physical sex, gender identities, sexual orientations, ages, and beliefs. The point is that we need to address this very personal issue of "releaving ourselves" in public with dignity while addressing each person's civil rights. We all have the right to be comfortable going to the bathroom! Since everyone in the world is different than you on the outside it is important to remember that we are all the same on the inside!!! The challange comes from only having two choices for restrooms. Many Transpeople don't identify as either male or female and there are intersexed people that don't fit in either. So in order to simplify as much as possible let's make this easy. Don't judge others as to what or who you think they are! (i.e. Don't judge a book by it's cover) Accept people for who they choose to present and leave it at that. So if you are living as a woman or even dressed as one, please use the womens restroom and vice versa (if you are dressed as an alien, well it is your choice which restroom to use). In the mean time let's lobby to have unisex bathrooms and stop seperating ourselves! All it takes is respecting those who are around you.
Today I went out and registered at a few local job agencies and start work tomorrow. This will hold me over till I can get a more permanent job. The combination of the economy and my life changes has made it difficult to find work, however I am very hopeful and feel the spring has great things in store for me. I thank God that I have Loving family and friends who are willing to take care of me. More than ever I have my eye on my desires, and things are right on track. A windfall right now would be nice, but then we have tax refunds coming very soon; I figure mid April. If I were to have my surgery tomorrow I would go to Thailand to have it done. Although I have been looking at the local team and not having to fly so far would be nice. Then again, I love to travel and what better excuse to go to Thailand? I hear it is about the same money or a bit cheaper in Thailand after all is said and done. The surgeons are the best in the world and the whole outlook in that part of the world is more evolved in my opinion, at least in this area. Time will tell where I end up going, so as usual,...life goes on.
Hi, I am usually pretty good at being positive here and finding the bright side to life, however tonight I am feeling pretty gloomy. I want to be positive and say I know things will work out fine. Right now surrender seems the best choice, but I am standing at what seems like the edge of the Grand Canyon with the need to get to the other side. I wonder if I can fly...?
I hear that when the mind reaches it's capacity it either evolves or dies and this definately feels like the end. I guess a new beginning is next....

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
They're shopping for food retailers
BIZ trying to replace ones leaving the core
Downtown officials are stepping up their efforts to attract new grocery retailers in the wake of the pending loss of two of the three full-line grocery stores serving the area.
Stefano Grande, executive director of the Downtown Winnipeg Business Improvement Zone, said Tuesday that when the Extra Foods store at 600 Notre Dame Ave. closes next month and the Zellers outlet in the basement of the Portage Avenue Bay store closes next March, downtown residents will be left with only one full-line grocery store -- the IGA at the corner of Broadway and Donald Street.
That will be an impediment to further downtown residential growth, Grande said.
"I think we all recognize that with Zellers leaving and Extra Foods closing, that is going to be an issue for downtown residents. It's definitely something we have to respond to."
He said the Downtown Winnipeg BIZ, CentreVenture Development Corp. and Economic Development Winnipeg are working together to identify local and out-of-province grocers who might open a downtown store and to scout for potential sites for new stores.
"I think there is a huge opportunity with two big grocers leaving," Grande said. "So we're reaching out to grocers, downtown property owners and (real estate) brokers."
CentreVenture CEO Ross McGowan said several grocers "are showing some interest." He wouldn't say who or reveal further details about their talks, but added he's hopeful a solution can be found within the next 12 months.
"I think we'll be successful... It's a high priority with us."
Jino Distasio, director of the University of Winnipeg's Institute of Urban Studies, said one of the factors that has discouraged full-line grocers from setting up shop downtown was the small population base. But he said the downtown population has grown substantially in the last 10 years -- Grande pegs it at about 16,000 people now -- and is getting big enough to support a mid-size grocery store.
"To me, what that grocery store in the basement of the Bay has demonstrated is that there is a demand in the downtown for decently priced groceries," Distasio said. "So if you could find the right space and could offer groceries at affordable prices, I think you could do quite well."
Grande said a business case can be made for a mid-size, full-line grocery store for the Portage Avenue area, and a smaller, specialty foods store for the Exchange District/Waterfront Drive area, where new condominium developments are attracting a growing number of higher-income families.
Brian Timmerman, executive director of the Exchange District BIZ, agreed, saying there are about 700 residential units in the area, with another 200 in the works.
"That's a lot of households," Timmerman said.
McGowan said there still aren't enough people living downtown to support a big-box supermarket.
"We've probably got to be a little more creative... It could be a combination wine store, cheese store, grocery store, corner store," he said.

Christmas Gift Trees for the Teachers
Are you stumped as to what to get your students teacher for Christmas?? In the lobby of Florence Wilson there are 6 Christmas trees. One for each grade and a "specials" tree, on each tree are "ornaments" of gift ideas for their classroom. We invite you to come and choose an "ornament".. Have a great holiday with your family and friends.. Happy Holidays!!!
Kindness Revolution
Here at Florence Wilson we are trying to encourage the students to exhibit acts of kindness! We are now going to start spot-lighting those who have displayed an act of kindness that was above and beyond. The teachers are watching closely for acts of kindness that are above and beyond. If a student is caught being extraordinarily kind, they are then sent to the office with a kindness referral! There they will receive a special yellow bracelet. Their name, and what they did will be displayed on the "pillar of kindness" that is located inside the school, just past the office. A positive referral will also be entered into skyward therefore the student's upcoming teacher will see that they demonstrated such an act of kindness. Please encourage your children to display kindness throughout the day, and if they are rewarded with a yellow bracelet-make sure to let them know how great of a job they have done!!!
*<<<= Ten Days of Christmas :0)
To get in the holiday spirit, Florence Wilson staff and students can participate in the 10 days of Christmas. Each day will be a different winter themed day.

The new accounts will be associated with Western State Bank. The bank opened on September 18th. If you would like to start an account for your child you can stop by the office and pick up a form. The school is excited about this new collaboration with Western State Bank. The bank is open every Friday morning. The fourth grade students run the bank and are assisted by bank employees so they can experience real banking practices. Ms. Veerkamp interviewed students for the positions at the bank.

Picking Up and Dropping Off Procedures
At Florence Wilson safety is taken very seriously. To ensure the safety of our students please follow these guidelines for picking up and dropping off your students. The West parking lot is to be used for teacher parking and buses only. Please do NOT use the WEST parking lot. There is only one handicap parking slot in our parking lot so we ask that you not use it unless you have a handicap sticker. The area next to the bike racks in the west parking lot is a fire line and no one should ever use this area. If you park on the North side of the street your child should walk to the end of the block to the intersection and then cross the street. We will not allow children to walk alone between cars to cross the street. If you are picking up or dropping off please pull as far West so the next car can pull in behind you and can keep the line moving. You must pull over to the curb to drop your child off, DO NOT stop in the street. If everyone follows these guidelines it will be easier to help get children safely to thier rides.
Thank you for your cooperation!

Paul Singer has not been shy about expressing his feelings about the Federal Reserve. In effect, the hedge-fund billionaire's argument is that quantitative easing is the root of all evil in the world and must be stopped.
Well, even though the Fed has stopped buying bonds, Paul Singer is not satisfied that he has been heard. And so he's taken his message to Davos. Alas, no one appears to be listening on that side of the Atlantic, either. Read more »

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Last 23 december, in Munich, Pierre Mendell, no doubt one of the best graphic designer of the XXh century, passed away.
I suggest a minute to look at his (master)works in order to (re)think to vulgarity and sloppiness of (most) today's graphic design.
I had no idea. This is really sad news.
What was the idea behind that poster, Carlo ?
Alessandro, try to take a look at "At first sight" (Lars Muller Publishing), the last book with Mendell's works (or look at www.mendell-design.de).
By the way the poster was for an exibition on relationships between art and church. Powerful, astonishing graphic design.
Less is (so) more...

Lucas Jackson/Reuters CDs are dead. That doesn't seem like such a controversial statement. Maybe it should be. The music business sold 141 million CDs in the U.S. last year. That's more than the combined number of tickets sold to the most popular movies in 2014 (Guardians) and 2013 (Iron Man 3). So "dead," in this familiar construction, isn't the same as zero. It's more like a commonly accepted short-cut for a formerly popular thing is now withering at a commercially meaningful rate. And if CDs are truly dead, then digital music sales are lying in the adjacent grave. Both categories are down double-digits in the last year, with iTunes sales diving at least 13 percent. The Death of Purchased Music Nielsen The recorded music industry is being eaten, not by one simple digital revolution, but rather by revolutions inside of revolutions, mouths inside of mouths, Alien-style. Digitization and illegal downloads kicked it all off. MP3 players and iTunes liquified the album. That was enough to send recorded music's profits cascading. But today the disruption is being disrupted: Digital track sales are falling at nearly the same rate as CD sales, as music fans are turning to streaming—on iTunes, SoundCloud, Spotify, Pandora, iHeartRadio, and music blogs. Now that music is superabundant, the business (beyond selling subscriptions to music sites) thrives only where scarcity can be manufactured—in concert halls, where there are only so many seats, or in advertising, where one song or...

In 2014, Jurgen Klopp's side endured the worst opening half of the Bundesliga season in Borussia Dortmund's history. Coming off their worst ever "Hinrunde" -- first round -- in the Bundesliga, Borussia Dortmund entered the winter break with plenty to work on before the competition resumes on Jan. 31. Here are five observations from their final friendly -- a 1-1 draw with Fortuna Dusseldorf -- before the Bundesliga restarts. 1. Dortmund's defence remains inconsistent Borussia Dortmund will leave Dusseldorf with mixed feelings. A 1-1 draw will not have provided the confidence boost Jurgen Klopp would have hoped for against the German second-tier side. Dortmund were in firm control for the majority of the game, yet invited Fortuna into the match with cynical errors time and time again. Their high pressing off the ball looked gripping and up to speed, especially in the first half, when Klopp's probably first-choice XI were involved, but occasional incoherence was enough to allow Dusseldorf enough chances to win the game by a comfortable margin. A side with better finishing prowess -- say Bayer Leverkusen, their Bundesliga opponents on Jan. 31 -- might take more advantage of these little hiccups. BVB's defenders weren't on the same page when they conceded the first goal just five minutes before half time. While Mats Hummels and Marcel Schmelzer tried to play for offside, Lukasz Piszczek and Sokratis Papastathopoulos were picking up... Full Article

The pilot claimed to have seen a small metallic object about 3 feet (1 meter) in size just off his right wing. Credit: MUFON/Roger Marsh An investigative organization has kick-started the creation of a worldwide UFO database, which will allow people around the globe to report their supposed extraterrestrial encounters. A new tool from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) promises to help demystify the mystique that rides along with skywatchers' interpretations that extraterrestrial intruders are cruising Earth's airspace. But in today's age of video and cellphone cameras, iPhone apps, Twitter and other techniques, can these tools assist or hinder classifying the "strangeness factor" of UFOs? Is such a database needed, and who cares? Moreover, what's the current status of UFOs in 2015? [Where to Spot UFOs (Infographic)] Real science MUFON's plan to plot out a new database is designed to advance the group's investigative and citizen-action sighting efforts. The organization's mission is the scientific study of UFOs for the benefit of humanity, said Jan Harzan, executive director of MUFON, headquartered in Newport Beach, California. In that regard, he said that fulfilling this scientific quest requires the systematic study of the nature and behavior of the physical universe, based on observation, experiment and measurement.

As Greece goes to the polls Sunday, investors are bracing for a volatile reaction in markets. But some analysts say the wider impact is likely to be contained. The results of the vote are all-important for the future of Greece, but their broader effects will be cushioned both by Greece's isolation from the euro-zone financial system and by the massive program of bond-buying launched by the European Central Bank on Thursday, said Lucy O'Carroll, an economist at Aberdeen Asset Management. "The contagion is not completely gone," she said. "But it is reduced." Analysts at AXA Investment Management said markets could be volatile in the aftermath. "The uncertainty caused by negotiations between Greece and international lenders is likely to take its toll on risk assets, in the euro area at least." But they added that even if the radical left Syriza party wins on Sunday, Greece's elections are likely to have either a "marginal" effect or "no material impact on the rest of the euro area." Markets in Europe are still digesting the full impact of the ECB's announcement of quantitative easing which itself came just days after the Swiss National Bank shocked markets by removing the Swiss franc's cap against the euro, sending the single currency plunging in the days since. In the two and a half years since Greece's government last collapsed, Europe's banks have slashed their exposure t... Full Article
As we all know there's enough people out there who tell us that markets don't work very well, free markets especially don't work all that well and so, well, we should all be dragooned into doing whatever it is that these people have planned for us. One answer to this is simply to start shouting that free markets do to work so there. A slightly more sophisticated approach would be to agree that yes, markets (whether free or freeish) sometimes they don't work well. But that markets don't work well, or even at all, in one or another set of circumstances is not actually proof either that they won't work well elsewhere or that they're not working elsewhere. For example, the observation that a monopolised market is not working could well be true but that isn't proof that non-monopolised markets don't work. We can also go further and actively point to areas where we know that markets don't work well. Even point out that we try to cure those market failures through intervention. Our point being that we're perfectly willing to use non-market methods it's just that we have to be convinced of the market failure first. And, of course, confident that the planned change will fix it. All of which is an opener to discussing this piece on a new book The Eureka Myth. Looking at how creative people create and why they do so. I entirely agree with the idea that we've not got the whole intellectual ... Full Article

Artwork by: Andy Lendway Wilmington illustrator Andy Lendway created the animal welfare license plate contest winning design. Animal-friendly Delaware drivers have a new option to show their affection for dogs and cats: a redesigned animal welfare license plate. Delaware Health and Social Services Secretary Rita Landgraf, joined by illustrator Andy Lendway, unveiled the new license plate recently at the Delaware Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Stanton shelter. Lendway, 55, of Wilmington, created the winning design that features a dog and cat touching noses on a yellow background with paw prints. Lendway's artwork won the First State Paw Draw Contest hosted by the Delaware Division of Public Health's Office of Animal Welfare. OAW Executive Director Hetti Brown said the Animal Welfare License Plate Contest Committee considered several strong contenders. "We are thrilled to offer this new design to the public," Brown said. "This license plate allows drivers to show their love for animals while supporting services to reduce the overpopulation and homelessness of Delaware cats and dogs." The plate sells for $50 at the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles, and $35 of each sale is allocated to the Animal Welfare License Plate Fund. Revenue is used to provide spay and neuter surgeries for community cat colonies or specific breeds, to offer low-cost or free spay and neuter services for those who do not qualify for the State Sp...

Cleveland and Durham Specialist Operations Unit has launched a week-long clampdown on mobile phone use while driving A crackdown on drivers using mobile phones at the wheel has been launched in Durham and Cleveland. Police forces said the campaign was intended to "educate drivers and robustly enforce the law". Last year, they issued 891 fixed penalty tickets for the offence, which attracts a £100 fine and three penalty points. Mobile phone-use reduces reaction time by up to 50%, "significantly" more than by drug or alcohol use, police said. 'Ignore it' The latest police accident records available suggest that between 2007 and 2012, there were at least 480 serious crashes related to mobile phone use. "Mobile phone usage causes a lot of serious and fatality road traffic collisions," said Sgt Kevin Salter. "Despite warnings and advertisements and media campaigns people just tend to ignore it." If a case goes to court the offender can be disqualified from driving and get a maximum fine of £1,000. Drivers of buses or goods vehicles could face paying £2,500. Last year, 51 penalty tickets were also issued to in the area, for people considered not to be in proper control of their vehicle, like those eating, drinking or applying make-up while driving. ...

(Adds details, quotes) By Greg StutchburyMELBOURNE Jan 25 (Reuters) - Teenager Nick Kyrgios ensured his compatriots would wake up to celebrate their national day on Monday by saving a match point against Andreas Seppi to reach the quarter-finals of the Australian Open on Sunday.Playing with the unencumbered freedom and brashness of youth, the 19-year-old had to battle his own demons to advance to the last eight with a 5-7 4-6 6-3 7-6(5) 8-6 win to overcome the Italian, who had upset Roger Federer in the third round."It's crazy. I don't think it's sunk in yet," Kyrgios told reporters. "When I saw I had finally won the match it was incredible. It was the best feeling I ever had."Kyrgios, who made the Wimbledon quarter-finals last year, spent much of the first two sets berating himself, producing outbursts of impressive swearing, and taking his frustration out on a racquet that earned him a warning from the umpire.Once he settled down, however, he matched the smooth baselining Italian and whipped Hisense Arena, girt by green and gold wearing fans, into a patriotic fervour."They were unbelievable," Kyrgios said of the crowd. "I was definitely feeding off the crowd in the fourth, especially in the tiebreak it was massive."That was a momentum builder going into the fifth set."PUGNACIOUS SHOULDERSThat fervour could be explained by the fact Kyrgios was the country's last hope at this year's tournament after Bernard Tomic was beaten by seventh seed Tomas Berdych earlier.The last time ...

Brendan Rodgers wants both Alexandre Lacazette and Karim Benzema, according to the Metro. The duo have been linked with summer moves to Anfield throughout January, with the newspaper believing that both could somehow come this month in a £63m double deal. If both can be brought in, the Metro say Rodgers is likely to let go one of Rickie Lambert, Fabio Borini or Mario Balotelli leave. Meanwhile, another striker linked with the Reds is Inter Milan marksman Mauro Icardi, who the Daily Star claim is tempting Liverpool, Chelsea and Atletico Madrid. The 21-year-old has been hailed as the 'new Ronaldo' in some quarters, and has been in good form for the Serie A side this season. And finally, Sportsvibe say the Reds have registered an interest in Stoke star Bojan Krkic. The 24-year-old has impressed during the first half of the campaign scoring four goals in 17 appearances for the Potters. However, Potters boss Mark Hughes has told prospective clubs to not bother in their interest in the Spaniard. ... Full Article

Long story short my husband and I are going on our honeymoon. Obviously we were supposed to have went after the wedding. Shortly before the wedding my husband ended up in the hospital for a week. I had to take time off of work (including vacation and FMLA) . We had to cancel our trip and had no money anyway to take the trip.
Now we are planning a trip for the two of us. My parents always watch my son when we work, we are police officers and work midnights), so we are not worried about that. While we are gone they want to visit our family in Mexico. They want to take our son with them. We are in agreement but I do not know what documents do I need to get for him to travel with my parents? I heard I need to do some kind of notarized paperwork in case of medical emergency but does he need a passport? My ds is 14 months old.

Certainly, and that is borne out in the numbers.
I've been having a hard time figuring out where I stand on this. The $ rate for researchers is roughly equivalent (100K average for senor scientist, 89K average for normal, www.glassdoor.com), so there is a good argument to be made for the NIH grant decision authority: "if I can pay someone with 10 extra years of experience for roughly the same money, why shouldn't I?". There is also a good argument for young scientists who claim "we have less than half the economic opportunities which were presented to the previous generation; this is unfair, and 10 years worth of scientists will be lost."
