Strategy Analytics, a global research and consulting firm, released a new report, "Megapixels Surge In 2004 Camera Phone Market," that found 84 million camera phones were shipped worldwide in 2003 versus 49 million digital still cameras. "NEC, with a 16 percent global share, was the world's leading camera phone vendor in 2003," said Neil Mawston, report author. "With more than 90 percent of its shipments including a camera module by the end of 2003, NEC has made imaging the centerpiece of its device strategy." The report also found that Asia is still the largest demand center for camera phones, but Europe will represent over 25 percent of sales in 2004. "In the clearest sign yet of mobile digital convergence," David Kerr, vice president of the Global Wireless Practice, said, "NEC, Nokia, Samsung and Panasonic all outsold Sony, the world's largest digital still camera vendor in 2003. Only Sony, Sony Ericsson, and Samsung, of the major traditional digital still camera vendors, are positioned to exploit massive camera phone growth through the end of the decade. Those DSC vendors without a strong cellular division or wireless partner, such as Olympus will find themselves under increasing competitive pressure in the long-term." Other key findings reported tumbling wholesale ASPs and strong retail subsidies will fuel 2004 growth as vendors are driving camera phone adoption by adding functionality that mimics the imaging form factor and man-machine interface that users are already highly familiar with through traditional film-based and digital still camera use. The report also found more than half of all camera phones will have 1 megapixel plus resolution by 2006.

repsac3 commented on the blog post Dimes Worth Of Difference
I'd never try to convince anyone who lives in a state that has any chance of tipping the election red to vote green. The idea that there's no significant difference between the two major parties boggles the mind.
But that said, where electoral politics is already rigged solid red or blue, folks are free to vote for the candidate with the policies and ideals they most want to see enacted, even if only to send a message to the major party most likely to move in that direction.
No, you'll likely never get Sparkle Ponies, but a little more glitter on the same old grey donkey might be a step in the right direction… …if it's something that enough people in a position to ask do so, that is…
I'm all for practicality over idealism, especially anywhere there's any chance it may actually make a difference…but you don't get what you want by accepting whatever they give you, either. Some folks have to make demands for planets and stars, even if they settle for "only" the moon, later on…
We on the left have to work together wherever we can–and after Bush and now Obama, one would have to be a fool to ever let the right regain control or to think there's no significant differences between the two major parties. But that doesn't mean I don't want more liberal candidates, preferably inside the Democratic Party, but elsewhere when necessary and possible. If the polling and whatnot here in NY allows, Dr. Stein may even get my vote…but only because I likely can… YMMV…
repsac3 commented on the blog post Nobama Slam Poetry Hatefest & Disappointment Caucus Is In The House
On the other hand, being able to say I never once voted for Joe Lieberman really pleases me. 'nuff said.
repsac3 commented on the blog post Nobama Slam Poetry Hatefest & Disappointment Caucus Is In The House
It's always easier to campaign when everyone (including you) knows you're never going to be elected, I'll grant you that…
But beyond that, what you choose to spit at folks or swallow is all up to you, my friend. While I've come to see the value of voting at least as much with the head as with the heart–especially if one lives somewhere where it actually matters, which given the way the electoral college works, a whole lot of us don't–I don't regret any vote I've ever cast, third party or otherwise. The day we on the left stop dreaming big and believing in ideals–even if we don't vote according to those dreams and ideals, because the only way for our candidates to effect change is to actually be elected into office–is the day we might as well become Republicans.
repsac3 commented on the blog post Nobama Slam Poetry Hatefest & Disappointment Caucus Is In The House
I can't speak for all Greens… but that wasn't me, then or now.
Because NY is a pretty safe state, I can vote for whatever candidate comes as close to saying what I would, if I were him/her. I vote my values, in the hope that candidates who want to earn my vote will come my way and be a little more progressive in future.
Were I in a swing state, though, I'd vote for the candidate who 1) can win, and is better than the other one who could win.
But to your point about campaign funds, when it comes to electoral politics, money counts. I wish it weren't so… …but it is. If there's a candidate or party who has never done anything in the interest of campaign funds or donations, I have never heard of 'em. (which is kinda the point, I s'pose.)
People choose and vote for the candidates they do for all kinds of reasons, including more'n a few that others might think unworthy… It even happens among loyal Democrats, I bet…
repsac3 commented on the blog post Nobama Slam Poetry Hatefest & Disappointment Caucus Is In The House
Prettier'n mine.
Shorter, too.
And exactly right…
repsac3 commented on the blog post Nobama Slam Poetry Hatefest & Disappointment Caucus Is In The House
I get idealism.
Before (and during) the 2000 race I was all about voting your heart, no matter what. (I don't know how far back the archives go–and I haven't been there in a few years, probably–but there may be even now yahoo group (that was egroups, that was…somethin' even before that) posts where I was the Green Party's own EVANGELIST on voting for Nader, and why it IT MATTERED…
And then Bush stole the race–
(and damned straight Bush stole it. Nader wasn't to blame. Something like 2000 elderly jews voted for a rightwing nut bag like Buchanan, according to those screwy ballots. Even Buchanan said he didn't earn those votes, and it was awful clear that Gore, did…. 537 votes made the difference in the election. And besides that, no one is entitled to votes… Ya gotta earn 'em. Nader did, Gore didn't.
Even the count that they finally did, counting all disputed votes that could be counted–I could care less about the strategy each campaign chose, at the time. All I cared about was all countable votes; and when all countable votes were counted, Gore clearly won. Folks can look it up.)
–and then he started dismantling America. And with 9/11, it all only got worse…
And I was all about "Yeah, Bush will screw up so bad that folks will BEG for a sane liberal by 2004."
It's bullshit. Real people get hurt, in the meantime. The country gets hurt in the meantime. Wars. Transfer of the wealth to the top tier, and foreclosures and economic hardship for the rest of us. And it didn't pay off, besides. He won (or if ya ask some folks, stole it again, in OH) in 2004.
LesserEvilism sucks, but it really does matter. We cannot willingly let the right lead… well, anything.
Now, if you're in a hopelessly safe state (be it NY, where nine times outta ten there is NO WAY a Republican is going to take it, or the reddest of red state redville, where there is NO WAY a Democrat could ever win), you can still vote your conscience, be it Nader, Rocky Anderson, write in Kucinich, Mickey Mouse, … But if it matters, you shouldn't take the chance of letting R-(money) win your state's electors. Even a dufus like him could do some REAL HARM to REAL PEOPLE.
Voting is a fine time to send a message if you can do so safely. But if folks really wanted to speak up about some of Obama's worst acts, the time to do so was as they were happening. The disappearance of the ANSWER anti-war / anti-illegal/immoral detention protests, post Bush, were a really big, bad mistake. I'm to blame, and so are you. But now isn't the time to let them slash and burn it all to the ground, and hope what grows back will be better.
That's what I think, anyway… Please think it through, and then think it over one more time, and don't give away what we do have, even if it is less than you think we should have.
repsac3 commented on the blog post Bad Things
So, it was more of a "send whoever happens to be on patrol in the area" deputying, if you will… Still wrong, but not quite so dramatic.
I don't doubt it happened… I (like the local police and media, apparently) just question the ties to "the right wing eeeeevil one, de jure" that all these blogs are breathlessly and unquestioningly quoting Patterico alleging.)
((Of course ASKING such questions is "Kimberlin Trutherism" (Donald Douglas link. Get out of the boat at your own risk.)) -
repsac3 commented on the blog post Donald Dick
he's feeding on the negative comments, and no doubt every nihilistic, atheistical comment he gets just reinforces his twisted religious beliefs.
All those comments opposed to the timing, tone, and general inhumanity of his posts allow him to play at being the real victim in the story; a martyr for his (or according to Donald Douglas, His) cause.
A writer at <The Moderate Voice looked around at conservative blogs, and made an interesting point; whatever one thinks about Cons or Fundies, Donald is so far out on his own in his recrimination of Elizabeth Edwards. Many of the bloggers we know and love (or… …not) have made respectful posts about Elizabeth's illness and death over the last several days. I know we have our differences with the aforementioned groups, but the sad fact is, Donald doesn't say these things because he is a conservative, or because he is (or claims to be) religious. Donald says these things because this is who HE is. This kind of inhumanity toward others is a part of him, and I urge those among you who pray, to pray that Donald gets right with God, not so much for himself, but so that he doesn't attack the next dying or recently deceased person with whom he has some imagined sociopolitical beef. Do it for the families… or at least, the children. Think of the children.

Mon Chéri
This article needs additional citations for verification. (November 2007) |
Mon Chéri is an internationally known brand name of the Italian Ferrero company for a chocolate confectionery.
The Mon Chéri is a single-wrapped combination, consisting of a "heart" of cherry, floating in a liqueur and contained in a plain chocolate housing. Each Mon Chéri contains 46 calories and is packaged in a red/pink wrapper.[1] There is no disclaimer on the packaging denoting the liqueur center, but the labeling lists kirsch and likör.
Mon Chéri is French for "My darling". Mon chéri has been produced since 1960 where it was first introduced to the French, Belgian and UK markets.[citation needed] It was introduced to the German market a year later.[citation needed] The Mon Chéri name was chosen as a reference to the French way of life and was quickly adopted as brand name for the international market.
The cherries used to make Mon Chéri comes from Fundão, in Cova da Beira rural area, Centro Region, Portugal. Annually Ferrero buys 150,000 tons of fruit to produce this candy.[citation needed]
In the American market, Mon Chéri was actually filled with hazelnuts and did not contain liqueur,[citation needed] similar to the Ferrero Küsschen that is sold in Germany and Denmark. After more than 20 years in production, this variety was discontinued by Ferrero, except in Puerto Rico where it is imported from Germany as "Mon Cheri".[citation needed] Most other markets, however, still sell the cherry-filled Mon Chéri.

Remember way back when we reported that the Amercian version of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom will have new characters? Well, we finally got word of one of them. Tekkaman Blade will be joining the roster, alongside the original Tekkaman. The next character to be released will be revealed sometime at this year's Tokyo Game Show.
Tekkaman Blade, you knew he was going to be picked sooner or later; I mean he should of been in the first game to begin with. Even though I would love to see Speed Racer, or even Shinji, I'm happy with D'Boy Tekkaman Blade. Who do you think is next?

Review: FlipMemo offers easy-to-use note-taking features
Create and slide notes in this well-designed iOS productivity app.
FlipMemo is a fairly stripped down app, but the smart design and clever interface make it unique in a number of ways. Easy to use, fast to set up, and designed for frequent mobile use, it is a smart app that will evolve with you as you start creating and organizing your notes.
FlipMemo is a note-taking app, but instead of creating a long list of notes, it creates a new card for each note you create. The master list will always appear when you open the app, so you can tap the title or you can slide the cards along to find the note list you need. From there you can edit the notes, delete the card, or change which order they appear in. You can also share any one note card via e-mail if you want to get it off your device. There are few settings in the app, but the core functionality is all very well crafted, meaning you can use it out of the box with little setup and few distractions.
If you want a note-taking app that doesn't have numerous features you'll never use and doesn't overload you with tagging and categorization options, but isn't too basic and stripped down, FlipMemo Free is a good app to start with. Supported by ads that are never intrusive and don't affect the efficiency of the app, FlipMemo Free is a smartly-designed, easy-to-use, and ultimately very effective note-taking app.

Looking for information on Malachi Kerby/Kirby, this is possibly my ggg grandpa, I have ran across information on the LDS family search that lists him with wife Nancy and children Sarah and William J. Kirby who is my gg grandpa, Malachi is shown to be born 1749 in South Carolina, but census data for William J Kerby Shows North Carolina and also the date of birth for Malachi would indicate that he would have been well int his 60's at time of birth of William J. who was born 11 Jan 1816 in Tennessee, census information for Williamson County, Tennessee 1850 and 1870 support this, and Malaki Kirby is shown in the Williamson County, Tennessee census in 1830. Information for William J. Kerby is from the W. B. Kerby Family Bible, W. B. is my g grandpa. Any information on this would be greatly appreciated, and I will share any information that I have.

Counting Romans
Saskia Hin, Stanford University
This article focuses on the debate about the size of the population of Roman Italy. I point at logical inconsistencies related to the dominant view that the Republican census tallies are meant to report all adult males. I argue instead that the figures stemming from the Republican census may represent adult men
sui iuris
and suggest that those of the Augustan censuses include all citizens
sui iuris
regardless of age and sex. This implies a population size under Augustus which falls between those suggested by 'high counters' and 'low counters'. Since the share of free citizens enumerated as
sui iuris
was further affected by various historical phenomena a range of intermediate scenarios or 'middle counts' is perceivable. However, such factors as affect the multiplier all pull in the same downward direction. Therefore, it is likely that the number of people inhabiting Roman Italy in Augustan times was closer to that suggested by the 'low count' than to that implied by the 'high count'.
Family matters: Economy, culture and biology: fertility and its constraints in Roman Italy
Saskia Hin, Stanford University
This article approaches the phenomenon of fertility in Roman Italy from a range of perspectives. Building on anthropological and economic theory, sociology and human evolutionary ecology various processes that affect fertility patterns by influencing human behaviour are set out. The insights provided by these disciplines offer valuable tools for our understanding of fertility in the ancient world, and enable assessment of the likelihood of historical demographic scenarios proffered. On their basis, I argue that there is little force in the argument that attributes a perceived demographic decline during the Late Roman Republic to a drop in fertility levels amongst the mass of the Roman population.

Commissioner Corner Message Board
why money leagues with people you dont know
I believe most if noyt all thesse money leagues are scams i would never pay into a league I did not personally know the commisioner. watch out who you pay
money leagues are a big pain.
is there private leagues with prize money to play with friends?
- 1 Reply to Andrew
I doubt that I'd play in any money league with a commish I didn't know that didn't have a league history. Its rather easy to look at previous years to see if there was a issue with the payouts.
I run a money league myself and make it a point to make sure that the winner always post to the league when they receive their winnings. The moment the league doubts that these are being paid out the league is done.
ive played in money leagues up to $250 with ppl i dont know and ive never had any problems...knock on wood.
I'm very glad some people do or I wouldn't be able to fill my leagues.
I understand the reluctance to send your money to someone you don't know. But I have recruited some very good owners off of these very boards and it's worked out well for everyone.
Not everyone is a lying thief. I wish there was some way for people to access the yahoo ratings of the owners who are recruiting. Mine (I'd hope) would be quite high.- 1 Reply to FB GURU
Do you have any active leagues that you are looking to fill?

Visualize a small bathroom for a couple of downsizers. Walk past vanity on left, toilet on right. ThereŌĆÖs a shower (no door, but a panel separating it from toilet area.) Tub on far wall with a big window.ThereŌĆÖs no curb on the shower, but it drops down 2ŌĆØ then slopes to the linear drain. I would like to use large format tiles-- "itŌĆÖs a fairly contemporary house and I was thinking this would help make the room feel a little roomier. Not sure exactly what size, but IŌĆÖd prefer rectangles to squares. Would 12 x 24 be too large? I know the conventional wisdom is to use smaller tiles for better traction on the shower floor. I also know that there are some large tiles with a faily high COF that can be used outdoors, around pools, etc. Would it be foolish to use large tiles on the shower floor if I made sure to get the right COF? (and what should that be?) Or would it be better to cut them up for the shower floor even if I donŌĆÖt like the way it visually breaks up the room? We will have heated concrete floors throughout the first floor, thinking of adding some integral color, but the plan is to get tiles that are similar so the floor visually flows into the bathroom without much contrast. I was planning on grout that virtually matched the tile, so if I had to use smaller tiles on the floor, that should help. Anyone have any experience with this issue? |

So long as the tile has a good CoF, you should be fine. But I'd test it, first. Both wet, as well as with "sudsy" water on it, being that there'll be more than water on it while you're standing there, so it'd be a realtime situation. |

Hey, everyone. It's Caitlin, otherwise known as glamourista16 on YouTube, and today, I wanna share with you guys how to recreate the Nikki Reed makeup look on the cover of the Seventeen issue and her makeup is just gorgeous. It's very glowy. It's just perfect for the wintertime because we always need a pick-me-up in the winter and this look is really fun because normally, I do makeup looks that tend to focus on the eyes and have a bunch of you know, different eyeshadows and liner, but this look more focuses on the pink rosy cheeks and the lips so I thought this is really fun to do and I hope you guys enjoy. To start up this look, I'm going to add a base to my lids and this is just going to keep the eyeshadows from creasing and it'll make them last a lot longer. Next, I'm gonna take a neutral, shimmery brown eyeshadow and with this soft fluffy dome brush, I'm just going to pat this on in the center of my lid and work it out into the inner and outer corners. And this doesn't have to be super pigmented because this look is kinda just a very natural light wash of colors. Next, I'm gonna go ahead and take a fluffier brush and just lightly wash this color all over my lid. Then, I'm gonna take that same fluffy brush and then just dip it in a darker matte brown eyeshadow and this is just gonna add a little bit of dimension to our look so we're just gonna pat this lightly in the outer corner. And then we're just gonna blend this color out so we're just left with a nice subtle eyeshadow color. Next, I'm going to take a light yellowy champagne-colored eyeshadow that is shimmery and then I'm gonna take my pencil brush and just lightly put this in my inner corner area because she has very bright eyes and this is just a very glowy look. So that we'll pull the look together. I'm going to curl my eyelashes and apply a lengthening mascara. And also, don't forget to apply a thin layer of this mascara to your bottom lashes as well. Now, moving on to the cheeks, as you can see in this picture, they're very glowy and pink and just she looks very alive so I'm going to be using just a shimmery, this is a poor excuse for a blush because it broke, but it's just a shimmery blush, a pink blush, but also had a matte section in it. So if you're just gonna buy a sheer shimmery blush that's just light and pink, that would be perfect but if it's matte, it's going to kinda take away that glowy effect. So, we're gonna be using a big fluffy brush and lightly dab it in my brush and then I'm just gonna swirl this onto the apples of my cheeks and then work my way up. Okay, so now, moving on to highlighting our cheeks. For this look, she had a very golden yellow shimmer highlight color so that's what I'm going to be using in this powder and on a brush like this. That's very easy to pinpoint where I'm gonna put it but if you don't have a brush like this, just go ahead and use your fingers but I'm gonna be applying this in a C-motion right along the tops of my cheekbones and up. Alright, so the final step to completing this cover look is to apply a shimmery pink lip gloss and then we are all done with the look. Alright, thank you guys so much for watching my Nikki Reed-inspired cover look. Be sure to check back here often for more beauty videos and I hope to see you guys soon.

Week Six: July 15-21
Shakespeare in the Park, Parker, July 21-24
Summer-reading diets tend to lean toward mind candy such as Bergdorf Blondes and The DaVinci Code, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't strive for a balanced meal. Pick up Shakespeare's easy-reading classic The Taming of the Shrew early in the season, then see Theatreworks of Colorado Springs perform the comedy live this week during four evening performances and one Saturday matinee. Tickets are free, but it's first-come-first-served starting at 6:30 p.m. -- so arrive early for a spot in line and enjoy the pre-show market. Sometimes you've just got to eat your greens. For more information, visit www.parkeronline.org/cultural.

Movies start around 9 p.m. every Friday and Saturday night through August 28, so check the schedule at www.boulderoutdoorcinema.com if you're more of a Godfather or When Harry Met Sally type. Get there early for a good spot on the grass; low-backed chairs and blankets are highly recommended, but couches or other wacky furniture won't be turned away. The Boulder Outdoor Cinema is directly behind the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art. Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for kids ages twelve and under, and free for kids under three.

Week Ten:
August 12-18
Wild Mushroom Festival, Telluride, August 12-15
No, no, no. It's not celebrating that kind of 'shroom. However, the festival will teach you to identify hundreds of Rocky Mountain wild mushrooms so you don't try tripping on the wrong ones again. There will be seminars on collecting them, growing them, cooking them, making tea out them -- basically anything you'd want to do with a mushroom except smoke it. But remember to bring your wallet: Each class will set you back $20 to $24. For more information, visit www.crested-butte-wild-mushroom-festival.com.
Week Eleven:
August 19-25
Palisade Peach Festival, Palisade,
August 19-22
If you've never tasted a peach from the Grand Valley, do not pass Go, do not collect $200; just drive directly to Palisade. This end-of-season festival catches the delectable fruit at its high point, when the flesh just slides off the nut and the juices slide down your arm. Celebrate this summer tradition starting on Thursday night with a good old-fashioned street dance flavored with free peach ice cream; Friday features a barbecue and buck-a-bowl vanilla ice cream topped with fresh sliced peaches. The fest culminates on Saturday, starting at 9:30 a.m. with a parade, followed by contests for the biggest peach, the best peach recipe and peach eating. Plus, the official "Town Grouch" will be introduced. You'll never buy another hard, mealy California peach again. For more information, visit www.palisadepeachfest.com.

Norfolk - Virginia Beach HotelsRush to shore aboard an Atlantic roller or bronze off your tan while watching surfers making the most of playful waves, from a bed of powder-soft sand. Even though Norfolk's charms pull in plenty of visitors, there's always room to spread out thanks to the 35 miles of glorious uninterrupted sands that border the city. Look in either direction, and you'll see wide, white beach stretching off into the distance, filled with beach volleyball players leaping, children sandcastle building, and love-struck couples paddling. Things to seeJust behind the miles of golden beach runs Virginia Beach boardwalk. Rumbling along the concrete stretch of path on a bicycle, or rollerblades, is a great way to gulp in some fresh sea air, while an afternoon stroll, watching the sun paint the sky blood red as it settles, is a spectacular way to start your evening. The Roman God of the Seas, Neptune, watches over the beach, and the trident bearing statue can be seen for miles around. It represents the wonders of the ocean, but make no mistake, his slightly grumpy expression is designed to serve as a reminder that we all have a responsibility to protect the seas. Learn more about conservation efforts, not to mention the eccentric and extraordinary creatures that dwell beneath the waves, at Virginia Aquarium and Marine Science Center. Vibrant, jewel-like fish swirl in enormous tanks, while sand tigers move stealthily through the waters above your head. You'll even get the chance to meet prehistoric Komodo Dragons, which are native to just 4 small Indonesian islands. If all that water leaves you in the mood for a good soaking, head to Ocean Breeze Waterpark - where you can drift along a gentle adventure river, or hold your breath and hope for the best while rattling through fully enclosed, near vertical, waterslides. Hotels in
Norfolk - Virginia BeachTake your pick from luxury, high rise accommodation, where you can lounge around to your heart's content - or cheap and cheerful hotels in Norfolk, where you can dump your bags before hitting the beach. Uncorking a bottle of wine on your balcony, to chink glasses against a backdrop of rippling Atlantic Ocean water, is a special experience. If you're bringing the whole family, a beachside apartment might be more suitable, as these come complete with refrigerators and cooking facilities to greatly simplify meal times. Cheaper accommodation, for those on a budget, offers reliable WiFi and turquoise swimming pools to cool off in. Where to stayIf you're here for your dose of sand and sea, there's only one place to stay – Virginia Beach. Hotels cuddle the shoreline, and offer private sun loungers, in the best beachside positions, to their guests. In the evenings, stroll along the boardwalk, before attempting to get your teeth around an overflowing Reuben burger. If you've still got the energy, bouncing bars and thudding nightclubs will keep you moving until the early hours. Or, guarantee yourself a peaceful night's sleep by crossing the bridge to Newport News - where you can stay surrounded by pristine lawns and leafy trees.How to get to Norfolk - Virginia BeachThe quickest route to beachside relaxation is to fly into Norfolk International Airport - which takes flights from New York, Miami and Chicago. The drive down from New York takes around 6 hours, and half that from Washington DC. Another option is to take the train to Newport News, which is served by Amtrak's Northeast Regional train service. The trains pass through Boston, Washington DC and New York, and Newport News's station is connected to Norfolk and Virginia Beach by Amtrak busses.

4-Year-Old With Life-Threatening Disease Goes to Disney World
A 4-year-old Springfield resident who loves all things princess got the chance to make a magical wish that came true. Although she was diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition, it didn't stop the little princess from having her dreams come true.
From the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique to a princess fairytale makeover, 4-year-old Lilliana Marchioro made a wish of a lifetime.
"I got to meet Rapunzel, Aurora, Cinderella, and Ariel," Liliana said.
A trip to Disney World is what every princess deserves, especially after Liliana and her family found out that she was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a cancer that attacks blood cells.
"Definitely a nightmare, terrifying, just trying to digest all of the information because there is so much information and they wanted to start her on medication right away," Liliana's mother, Tami Marchioro, said.
After going through dozens of chemotherapy treatments, Liliana began to lose her hair, and started no longer living the life of what a healthy 4-year-old should.
"The main thing with her is that we have to be very careful with germs, so the chemo attacks her immune system and lowers her immune system so we have to worry more about that then most other parents would because it could be life-threatening for her," Tami said.
Although Liliana has a life-threatening condition, this princess and her family got a chance through the Make-A-Wish Foundation for an unforgettable family vacation.
"I think a lot of it for us was just seeing them--the children--just so worry-free, so happy, and just able to be kids after what we went through," Tami said. "There comes a point where you just have to say this was a bad hand we were dealt, but we need to make the best of it, and we need to move on. And it's made us stronger."
Liliana and her family said the trip to Disney World is exactly what the family needed.
Liliana has been in treatment for a little over a year and is currently in the maintenance phase of her treatment. She will be celebrating her 5th birthday in just a few days.

What No One Ever Tells You About Mastectomies & Intimacy
By Dori Hartley
Sounds great in theory, and I'm sure hubby meant well, but was it she who was worried about the size, look and immediate replacement of her boobs ... or was it he? A husband's concern over the appearance of the new breasts, a boyfriend's curiosity about the scars, a cue signaling anything other than complete acceptance — these are the things that can undermine a woman's confidence. I'm not saying that she's not entitled to be concerned for her looks, but the last thing she needs after losing her breasts is to be caught up in someone else's idea of what's aesthetically best for her.
Then there are the logistics. Let's start by saying that "store-bought" implants do not have the same cosmetic effect on a mastectomy site as they do on a woman who is augmenting her own natural breasts. A breast augmentation is a procedure that slips an implant (ranging in size) beneath the fatty tissue of the breast to basically plump up what's above it, making a natural breast appear larger. The external appearance, the skin, the shape and size, the nipple — all of it, once fitted with an implant, has a larger, fuller look.
A mastectomy removes the entire breast, leaves no fatty tissue, no nipple and no extra skin to slip an implant beneath. The woman must first undergo a skin-stretching process in order to accommodate the implant; that's done by placing a tissue expander beneath the tightened skin, which is later replaced in yet another surgery by a silicone or saline implant. The road to reconstruction is a long one.
What does a finished reconstruction look like? It looks like a small, round, featureless, flesh-colored mound in place of where the breast once was. It is quite soft and nice and is of great comfort to a woman. If she wants, she can opt for a nipple (by tattoo or skin graft) at a later date. But many women tire of all the surgeries and simply accept the breast mound as is.
So, whether you're Angelina Jolie, me or any woman out there who's had to say ta-ta to a breast or two, it doesn't matter how much money you have or don't have, if you're one of the most beautiful women on Earth or just a plain Jane living a plain-Jane life; losing a part of you that's so closely tied to being a woman is a challenge that is both daunting and surmountable.
It's daunting because of the vulnerability it introduces into your life — it's hard to feel so fragile, so emotionally raw, so alone. What's surmountable is the misconception that you've become something less than who you are. That you can get over. I did. In fact, give it enough time and you'll get over all of it, I promise. You're not ugly, undesirable, ruined, unlucky or worthless, as I thought myself to be for so, so long. It takes time to acclimate to the battle scars that will become part of your back-story.
And when all else fails, there's always humor. Want to freak out friends and family? Nothing works better than whipping out a nipple-free breast mound at your next barbecue. Time — and laughter — heals all wounds.

On the day we went to the Alte Pinakothek, my wife forbade me to drag along the camera bag, so I compromised by only bringing my Diana Mini w/DIY splitzer cap. Hence experimenting.
