My friend and I stayed here in May 2011, the beginning of off-season. Randolph was warm and welcoming, providing us with the best of care and more. We loved his dog too, aka our 'guard dog' who was really just a big suck. We were able to contact our loved ones from his home, via email, to let them know... More

Carbide.c++ Tutorial 2 - Getting Input from user
This code example shows how to use the Carbide.c++ designer to create a single line data query input dialog. The example presents the user with an input dialog: once the user enters text and selects the OK softkey the entered text is displayed to the user.
The input dialog is in the Carbide.c++ designers's Notes and Dialogs section.
Contents |
See this tutorial first in order to understand basics of creating and running an application: Helloworld tutorial
Step 1 - Start a new project
- Start with a new project using Carbide.c++ IDE.
- Call it dialogs ( or whatever you like).
Once you are done with all basic steps you will see this window.
Step 2 - Add Single Line Data Query
Now add the Single Line Data Query input dialog to the form.
When selected from control pane, it would appear as below.
Step 3 - Delete the default
Now delete the default text appearing in the text area of the dialog.
Step 4 - Add event handler
- Add one menu item in the options menu.
- Refer to the above mentioned hello-world tutorial.
- Call this menu item as "Get Input".
- Now add an event handler to the menu item.
In the event handler the add the code for
Step 5 - Generated Code
Notice that the IDE generated code for the function to show the data query dialog. Remember not to tamper with the code between the tags called "generated code" this may stop auto generation of code.
Step 6 - Executing the application
Now we are done with the code and design part. Run the application to text it in emulator and following should be the output.
Step 7 - Changing the properties
The properties of the dialog can be altered visually in GUI designer. Right click the dialog and then select "Show properties view" option.
This way we can develop the GUI based application using Carbide.C++ very quickly. Once the basic idea of using dialogs with the IDE is clear, one can go for other dialogs in the application.

I found this plant growing in the garden and I was hoping someone could tell me what it is, the size it will grow to and whether it likes sun or shade. Thanks in advance Chris |

Looks like Grevillea robusta. Could be Grevillea banksii but that has slightly coarser foliage. Grevillea robusta is the Silky Oak, an Australian tree that is common in your area. It will eventually grow to 35m tall. |
Silky Oak was my first thought, too. Even if there's not one immediately in your neighbourhood, sometimes the cockatoos go for the seed pods for food and probably spread by droppings. Don't even THINK about planting it out unless you own a park or have acreage. A well-grown specimen is a thing of beauty in flower given the space, but in a residential area it will eventually lift your house off its foundations after the roots have destroyed all your underground pipes. Not to mention what the neighbours will do to you if it falls on them :-) |
Thanks for your advice, there are plenty of yellow crested cockatoo's visiting the garden so the seed probably came from them. I'll take your advice and I won't plant it but It's a pretty tree I might try growing it in a large planter (on pavers) at least for a while anyway. Thanks again for your help. |

At Tokyo Sushi & Grill, chefs spin out plates of authentic Asian eats alongside a sumptuous spread of quality sushi. Fish fans can fill their tuna tanks with mouthwatering morsels of white tuna ($2.25), yellowtail ($2.25), belly tuna ($4.25), or spicy tuna ($6.50), or mix and match any number of specialty sushi items to create a custom conglomeration of fresh fish, sticky rice, and chopped veggies. Complementing the sushi-heavy repertoire, Tokyo Sushi & Grill draws from the deep wells of Japanese and Thai culinary traditions. The shrimp tempura finds deep-fried succulent jumbo shrimp sharing prime plate real estate with battered vegetables and a tangy dipping sauce ($7.95 for lunch; $9.95 for dinner), and the crazy noodles entree earns its name by throwing together egg noodles, onions, carrots, pea pods, and bean sprouts in a mad mash-up, paired with your choice of protein and 17 copies of The Catcher in the Rye ($7.95–$10.95).
Inside Kyoto Japanese Steak House, guests sit at large hibachi tables with a close-up view of chefs cooking scallops, filet mignon, chicken, and lobster. More than 80 traditional Japanese and Thai dishes are grilled up by hibachi chefs, and 25 specialty rolls take shape in the hands of sushi chefs, who combine ingredients such as soft-shell-crab tempura, flounder, and submarine meat. Above the dark-wood floor of the dining room, a curved bar serves up sake and fruit-infused cocktails.
Sushi may be in the name, but there's much more to Cafe Sushi than Japanese cuisine. The restaurant's expansive menu covers almost the entirely of East Asia, with Mongolian beef, Thai-inspired spring rolls, and chili tofu to go with 30 specialty sushi rolls. Guests who wish to channel their inner chef can order the sukiyaki or shabu-shabu dishes and cook their own meals using a hot pot or wok right at the table. The restaurant's private tatami rooms offer a classic Japanese dining experience. Cushions on the floor serve as seating around low tables, and meals are eaten with chopsticks rather than the traditional American foam fingers.
At Shogun Japanese and Chinese Bistro, cooks amass an army of fresh ingredients to fire up on a griddle at diners' tables. Here, shrimp, calamari, and sirloin morph into hibachi-style dinners as they sizzle in the heat and tumble through the air with the help of the chef's spatula. Fresh fish and rice converge to form sushi such as the crispy roll #24, whose salmon and yellowtail flaunt a sauce as sweet and spicy as a valentine from a jalapeño pepper. The Chinese section of the menu brims with house specialties such as beef with stir-fried string beans and family-style meals of shrimp kow and almond chicken.
Guests at Fuji Japanese Steak House marvel at flame-filled performances, where chefs in red hats cook up shrimp, steak, and veggies at tableside hibachi grills. Amid the spectacle, servers weave between tables to deliver an array of Chinese, Thai, and Japanese dishes such as kung pao chicken, pad thai with beef, and seafood tempura.
Yotsuba's skilled sushi chefs sprinkle fresh fish and organic seaweed with low-sodium soy sauce brewed in-house. Tempura and teriyaki dishes steam atop low tables in the West Bloomfield location's tatami room, where cushy legless seats host floor-level dining in traditional Japanese style. High-backed booths and bar seating at both locations raise patrons off the ground for views of chopstick-wielding chefs tapping out the drum solo from "Wipeout" behind the sushi bar.

This is a truly excellent boutique hotel, perfectly positioned close to the Old Town in Prague. We are seasoned travellers as this hotel is one of the best we've stayed in. It rates 4.5 star by international standards. - Robert
The staff was very helpfull and fast, very nice stay. - Cesar
The hotel was very stylish keeping a lot of its original art deco features whilst at the same time being very modern. Reception staff were very helpful, breakfasts were excellent with a wide range of foods on offer,serving breakfasts till 11 was a bonus.A very comfortable and friendly hotel in an ideal location to visit the main historical and cultural parts of Prague. - Edward
Huoneisto oli hieno ja sijainti hyvä! - Anonymous
Some rooms offered a fantastic view over the Old Town Square. The Breakfast was served in The Lobby Bar that turned out to be a comercial morning cafe with an internal entrance from the Hotel. The staff were very pleasant and the breakfast was first class. The Jazz Bar in the cellar provided live music every night, served well-priced good quality food, and offered discount and payment through the hotel billing process. - Anonymous
The greatest thing was the location:10 minutes of lazy walk to Wenceslav Square and 2 steps from wonderful Riegrov's Gardens. The area is very quiet, picturesque and there are small cafes and shops nearby. The apartment is well-equipped and cosy. The agency staff is friendly and sympathetic and is always ready to give you a hand. - Anonymous
Wow! What a surprise this place was! In a good way that is. I wasn't expecting an entire apartment but that is what we got! It was beautiful and comfortable. Great location east to get to and from and around the city! We loved our short time here. And breakfast was brought to us each morning. A super place to stay! - Anonymous

This paper describes the development, production, and testing of a high-throughput analytical system, i.e., a unique screening tool for the unequivocal simultaneous identification of all currently EU-approved and all unapproved genetically modified organisms (GMOs) known to the Community Reference Laboratory for GM Food and Feed (CRL-GMFF), established according to Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003. The rationale and comparative advantage of the strategy selected as well as the formulation, potentiality, and flexibility of the system are illustrated here. The approach, developed in response to the worldwide growing testing needs, allows the event-specific simultaneous detection of 39 single-insert GMOs and their derived stacked events. System performance (specificity, efficiency, etc) has been successfully confirmed by experimental testing conducted within the CRL-GMFF and in collaboration with European control laboratories. The limit of detection (LOD) has been determined to be at least 0.045% expressed in haploid genome copies, thus in full compliance with EU requirements for method LOD. The "real-time PCR-based ready-to-use multi-target analytical system for GMO detection" developed by the Joint Research Centre is the first analytical tool worldwide allowing the simultaneous detection of so many genetic modification events using event-specific targets.

Coconut is delicious and one of most useful fruit for health, it is quite different from other fruits. It contain very big amount of water in it. when they are ready and become mature they still contain some water and coconut can also be used for making oil and its water has nice taste.
Top 10 Largest Producers of Coconut
It is cultivated in more than 80 countries. Its cultivation in dry land is very difficult because it need most frequent irrigation for its growth. Philippines is the leading nation for the growth and production of coconut. In accordance to an estimate made in 2010, Philippines is the largest producer of coconut with 19,500,000 tonnes output.

The recent blizzard that has blanketed the East Cost in several feet of snow and left thousands without power is a great reminder of the importance of being prepared.
This winter made it clear snow and ice storms can hit just about anywhere. In recent years, tornadoes and hurricanes also have increased in number. The fact is, our weather is getting more erratic.
In case of a serious emergency, you may need to survive on your own. That means having enough food, water and other supplies on hand for at least three days. Local officials and relief workers will likely be on the scene after a major disaster, but they won't be able to reach everyone immediately. You could get help in hours or it might take days. Also, such basic services as gas, electricity, water, sewage treatment and telephones may be cut off for days or longer.
If you haven't already created a comprehensive kit for just such emergencies, here's all you'll need to know, as supplied by FEMA.
1. Water: One gallon of water per person for at least three days, for drinking and sanitation purposes.
2. Food: At least a three-day supply of non-perishable food.
3. Radios: Battery-powered or hand-crank radio and a NOAA Weather Radio with tone alert. Don't forget extra batteries for both.
4. Flashlight with a strong light and extra batteries.
5. Whistle to signal for help.
6. Dust mask to help filter contaminated air.
7. Plastic sheeting and duct tape to create an air-filtration shelter.
8. Moist towelettes, garbage bags and plastic ties for personal sanitation.
9. Wrench or pliers to turn off utilities.
10. Can opener, if kit contains canned food.
11. Local maps, in case you need to evacuate the area.
12. Cell phone with chargers, inverter or solar charger.
13. Toilet paper.
14. First-aid kit, including:
15. Prescription medications and glasses.
16. Infant formula and diapers.
17. Pet food and extra water for your pet.
18. Important family documents, such as copies of insurance policies, personal identification and bank account records, all sealed in a waterproof container. Use Operation Hope's Emergency Financial Aid Kit to help organize your information.
19. Cash or traveler's checks and change.
20. Sleeping bag or warm blanket for each person, depending on your climate.
21. Complete change of clothing.
22. Household chlorine bleach and medicine dropper as a disinfectant (diluted nine-parts water to one-part bleach). Bleach can also be used to treat water by using 16 drops of bleach per gallon of water.
23. Fire extinguisher.
24. Feminine supplies and personal hygiene items.
25. Mess kits, cups, plates, utensils and paper towels.
26. Matches in a waterproof container.
27. Paper and pencil.
28. Books, games, puzzles and other activities for both adults and children.

I have a garlic that was found at an old home stead in N.C. Mountain. It has grown in Ga. for 20 years now.
It looks like garlic, it taste like garlic, but it has little bulb lets around the main bulb. The main bulb gets about 1 inch in diameter & pickles well. The owner told me, he just lets it grow & digs it as needed. Anyone know what this is. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Sounds like elephant garlic but without a picture or better description I'm not sure. |
Never heard of elephant garlic that did not have cloves, all that I have bought & grew had large cloves. This bulb is round like pearl onions, but has flat leaves & garlic taste. The man who gave me my start, pickles it. The bulbs are round not wedge shaped like every other kind of garlic I have seen in the last 40 years. I will get a photo when I dig it next fall, did not think to take photos before planting the bulbs. I ask a garlic grower on a site & he said it sound like a Chinese garlic, but also would like a photo. Hopefully it will multiply this coming season & I can spread the bulbs around. That way it will not be so rare in a few years. |
I just thought elephant garlic because of the bulbs around the main bulb thing you mentioned. On second thought this link might be what you are describing. |
Here is a link that might be useful: single bulb garlic
Thanks, madroneb. This link was helpful. |
Harvest my organic garlic, my single clove garlic is still green & blooming. |
Here is a pic of my single clove garlic, I will not pull it until it's bottom leaves die. tried to turn pic, no luck. |
The garlic still green with no dry blades, i have cut back on watering to be safe. |
I wish I could say that I love my single clove garlic. The clove were planted last of 2011. The plants have been in the ground for about 36 months. I wanted to give the plants time to put out a lot of little cloves on the out side of the larger clove/round /bulb of single clove garlic & it did, must be twenty little garlic plants. So I pulled the large stacks up to see how large the single cloves were. I want to say it was a nice large single bulb, but It is NOT, in it's place is 4 large cloves, just like other garlic. The man I got the first bulbs from, must have been digging up the small single clove that form on the outside of this garlic bulb. I put my cloves in organic soil & mulched them, watered them when I watered my tomatoes & other veggies. |

Given the flower stalk, I would say that is Elephant Garlic. I have never ever had true garlic put out a flower scape, but have grown Elephant Garlic in the past and that is how it looks. How is the taste of this "garlic?" If it is wimpy then you know for sure it is Elephant. Also, the small flat-sided (one side is flat, anyway) bulbs are something that the Elephant Garlic does as I recall. So, no not a garlic, but rather a leek. |
It is big like Elephant garlic, but It has heat for the time it is in your mouth, but dissipate as soon as you shallow the bit of garlic. Does it take 36 months/3-summers for Elephant garlic to make large cloves from the root-bulbsils? This is what happen here. The man I got it from grew it in poor,dry soil & it never bloomed in 20 years. This may be because it grew under a Catawba tree in GA. |
Looks like Elephant garlic to me, too, or at least one of the leeks closely related to it, and those can take more than a single growing season to set additional cloves. For that matter there seems to be more than one strain of Elephant garlic, too. As I understand it all of the ornamental alliums are edible and often taste garlicy, with many of them blooming like in the picture. |

San Diego port joins superyacht group
Posted onThe Port of San Diego joined the San Diego Superyacht Association, a non-profit coalition formed to attract more superyachts to the region.
It was roughly a year ago that the San Diego Unified Port District began accommodating superyachts along the Embarcadero area between the Grape Street Pier and the San Diego Maritime Museum. Up to eight luxury yachts can be accommodated.
"We recognize the economic impact that superyachts have on our region and we wholeheartedly endorse the association's effort," said Stephen P. Cushman, chairman of the Board of Port Commissioners, in a statement.
The association is planning an advertising and marketing campaign as part of its effort to attract new business to the area's yacht clubs and marinas.
"We're grateful that our collective effort to attract yachts here, as well as make their arrival smooth and hassle-free, has been officially recognized by the Port," SDSA president Paul Daubner said in a statement. "This partnership is a perfect example of San Diego's business and government entities working together to improve the marine industry economy."

6 Filmmaking Tips From Nora Ephron
Features By Scott Beggs on June 27, 2012 | Be the First To CommentNora Ephron's film career – despite three Oscar nominations and credit with re-inventing an entire genre – somehow doesn't get the legendary status that it probably deserves. She only wrote and/or directed a few more than a dozen movies, but in those films she delivered iconic characters that achieved a sense of honesty that few filmmakers are even brave enough to approach. She fought myopic views about her sex to build fame as a journalist, an essayist, a novelist, a screenwriter and a director. She got started in screenwriting because everyone else was writing scripts, her film school was being on set with Mike Nichols, and her work made a huge impact on popular culture and faked orgasms. So here it is, a bit of free film school (for fans and filmmakers alike) from a comedy genius.
Rob Hunter loves movies. He also loves rescuing dolphins from culturally misguided Japanese fishermen. These two joys come together in the form of cash money payments that he receives every week and immediately uses to buy more DVDs.
Last weekend saw the opening of the first mainstream film to be based off a blog. So we got to thinking. Then we took a nap. Then we got up, ate some cereal, and did as little thinking as possible to come up with pitches for 10 new films that could come from blogs.

About This Project
Cost about $100 and took about 6 hours total (one person). I ended up using a polyshade color I had in the garage -- but I wish I would have just used regular stain or paint. I'll likely repaint it in a bit, the polyshades just doesn't cover well (but that's what I get for trying to use leftovers!) One of my top pieces ended up being a little short (I accidentally cut it with the original cut pieces). It looks REALLY great though, and I'm likely the only one who would notice. My husband is super impressed! Thanks, Ana!

I'm still pondering which all-in-one computer to buy to replace my old Dell with its tower. I'm used to having 3.2 Ghz as on my present computer and my previous one. Most of the AIO computers seem to have less than 2 Ghz. The HP Pavilion 20" has 1.4 Ghz, and HP Pavilion 23" has 1.7 Ghz. The Lenovo C440 goes up to 2.9 Ghz, though the computer itself is cheaper than the aforementioned Pavilions. If I get an AIO computer with less than 2 Ghz, as opposed to my present 3.2 Ghz, will I see any appreciable difference in performance? (All I do is word processing, email, and web browsing.)
I'd have to see the specs of the computers, but the difference in the GHz may be related to the lower GHz processors being quad-core vs the faster ones being dual-core, or dual-core vs single core. Most buyers don't need to be concerned with processor speeds anymore. If you are really big into multitasking on the computer then you'll want more cores. If you only do one or two things at a time on the computer you may opt for more GHz.
I looked at 3 AIO computers today at Staples. The HP Pavilion 20" is described on its Staples page as having an AMD E1-1200 Accelerated 1.4GHz 1MB L2 Cache Processor. The HP Pavilion 23" is described as having an AMD E2-1800 Accelerated 1.7GHz 1MB L2 Cache Processor. I don't know what any of that means in terms of cores. The Lenovo C440 is described as having an Intel® Pentium® Dual Core G2020 Cache Processor. It's listed as having 2.9 Ghz.
All three are dual core CPUs. It appears the AMDs CPUs are targeted for small laptops/netbooks meaning they have less power. I personally like Lenovo computers and Intel chipsets but beyond that I know nothing about those three computers. **Glancing briefly at the Staples website the Lenovo's appear to get a little higher rating than the HPs too. Guess I'm not alone. Memory between the HPs and Lenovos is the same but you get double the hard drive space with the Lenovos. I'm sure both brands would be fine. I'd suggest first narrowing down the size of screen you want as both brands have a 23" for the same price and the 20/21.5" within 20 dollars in price.
Did some further reading. Lenovo does get good reviews, but is said to be designed for entertainment, which may account for the higher Ghz. The two Pavilions get mixed user reviews at Amazon.com, with some saying they're too slow. I think I'm going with the Dell Inspiron 20" at Staples. I guess I'm going to have a challenge with Windows 8, but I have no choice, with my good old Windows XP destined for the graveyard.
The first thing you may want to do when you power it up and it goes to the default screen is to press the Windows key, at the bottom of the keypad, plus the letter D. That will take you to the desktop and more familiar territory. The next one you can try is the Windows key plus Q and Windows key plus X. There are several others too. Do some Googling and it won't take long to get a feel for it. I still don't particularly like 8 but I've learned to deal with it. Evidently I'm not by myself from what I have read. Here's a link to some help with using 8 So I Have Windows 8, Now What?
Thanks for the link and suggestions. The Dell Inspiron at Staples has a touch screen, which I assume is preferable with Windows 8. I've never used one before.
I haven't ever used on either. Don't think I really want one with my experience on laptops. I don't have the steadiest hand in the world and like the feel of a regular keyboard underneath my fingertips.
Having a touch screen does make Windows 8 much more natural to use. The touching is not all that precise in that you are tapping rather large tiles and doing the various multi-touch operations like swiping, expanding and squeezing. The Inspiron still supports a regular, more precision, pointing device so the victim has a choice of how to interact with the system.
Ghz are only important if there is a large difference. For example, if you have a CPU that pumps out 3.0 ghz as opposed to 3.2, you won't find a big difference so you want to look at other factors to make your decision. If you're looking at something that is a bigger margin such as 2.5 to 3.5, then you will notice the difference and it would be wise to choose the one that pumps out 3.5.
This is not necessarily true, either. That difference may well be mitigated by threading capabilities, multi-core, cache sizes and even processor type.
Well, I went to Staples and tried out Internet Explorer on the Dell Inspiron. What a load of crap. I found a website (I don't remember how) and there is no tool bar for favorites, to print, to close tab, to go home, or do anything else. Sporadically a bar would appear at the bottom of the screen that at least allows you to go forward and backward. I don't know what made it appear. Fiddling around with the cursor at the bottom right would make four or fives icons appear, one allowing you to go back to start, another for search, so the only way to go to the next website, Swamp Gas for example, is to type it in and search for it. I can see that Windows 8 is going to a breeze and so much fun. I came back home (no one in the store offered to help anyway) and decided to see what I can find out about this mess before I buy a computer. I guess the link that was provided above on how to use Windows 8 is the place to start. Maybe by Christmas I will have an idea how to use it and will have Santa bring me a computer.
I would download Firefox when I got the computer, but it might take a few weeks to learn how to do it.
Chrome would be a better choice, probably, but the choice is yours. There are two 'versions' of Internet Destroyer on Windows 8. There is the 'Start Screen' and the 'Desktop' version of IE. It's yet another way to annoy people. It sounds like you were a victim of the 'Start Screen' version. This one has no 'chrome' and I don't know how to perform anything in it other than the most basic browsing. An easy way to get to the less annoying, 'Desktop,' version is type Internet while on the Start Screen. Internet Explorer should appear at the top of the screen. Click on it and you will have a version of Internet Destroyer that is much closer to what you would expect. From there you can download FiredFox or Chrome, easily.
By the way, I find myself pressing the Windows key on my keyboard a lot in Windows 8. This switches between the Start Screen and Desktop. I tend to spend almost all my time on the Desktop operating much like I was on a previous version of Windows. I click on the Windows key to go to the Start Screen where I usually type the name of what I want to do or find and it almost always shows it to me.
One of the more stupid things they did with 8 is to eliminate the Start button from the Desktop view. It's like they intentionally tried to screw the whole OS up just to see how people would react. From what I have read of the sales (maybe they are better now) it looks like they got their answer.
Windows 8 sales have outpaced Windows 7 sales in the same time frame. And they did from the first day.

Kids and Smart Phones-the hidden danger!
by Dan Mitchell
posted Apr 27 2012 1:12PM
This morning while checking my personal facebook page, I noticed a picture had been posted from my Droid phone...but not by me. How can this be I asked myself. I then realized that my Grandaughter Jada (she is 2) had been looking at pictures in my phone last night. She must have done it! Now, it was an innocent photo of her younger sister Jazmin, eating her birthday cake. I got to cogitating on the possible ramifications of this happening again. Do I have any incriminating photos in my phone which could have been posted by the apparently advanced 2 year old? So I looked...This is all I found

My son arches his back and cranes his neck backward. Why?

We asked our 4 month old son's pediatrician why he arched his back so much and if it was harmful. He told us that as long as he didn't act like he was in pain, then he was probably experimenting with his body. He told us that it was most likely a movement that he was beginning to "learn" and would probably continue doing it because he now knows what the outcome is.posted 01/12/2011 by doccjt
My son is almost 5 weeks old. He does the same. We are worried too.posted 04/12/2013 by ishak tamang
My son does the same, he's 6 weeks old an arches his back with a stiff neck. We went to see the pediatric neurologist and she said he was hypertone and favors his right side. I've read up on Sandifer's syndrome, symptoms look familiar.posted 07/08/2012 by davedadoli
My almost 4-week old son does the same. I was reading up on GERD and happened to run into Sandifer's Syndrome. This seems to be the thing that our babies are showing. It is closely associated with Reflux. Check Youtube videos to compare what your babies have.posted 08/25/2011 by jrmold1
My 1 year old does the same arching and i suggest you take your children to a pediatric neaurologist, they have to do a MRI on my sons brain because the arching might be Opisthotonus which is a sign of a brain injured infant. also it my hypertonic muscle tone which would be a relief compared to opisthotonusposted 05/27/2011 by pac2111
My 8-week-old son is unusually strong for his age. He has perfect head control already. My concern is that, whether lying down, being held, or sitting in his bouncer, he will arch his neck back to the point that he is looking at the wall BEHIND him. No only that, but he will get completely fixated on a spot and will not be swayed from it. Being as strong as he is, even when I try to get him to put his head down, he will actually push against my hand with his head, causing him to arch his back as well. Regarding the fixation, I can move him around the room and yet his eyes will remain focused on the same spot. I don't think it's reflux because it isn't just when he eats. I would love some input on this! Thanks!posted 04/18/2011 by sutton201
Yes, hope someone can please answer as our daughter has been doing the same thing.posted 10/15/2008 by AlanandGinny
AlanandGinny - not sure how old your daughter is or when it's occuring, but if she's an infant and it's during or after a feeding, it could be due to reflux. Our son had severe "silent" reflux (food never came all the way back up so we had no idea he was having issues) and arched his back and got upset during and after his bottles. We finally realized there was a problem when he started smelling like acid and had a hoarse voice. Ask you ped. about it. On another note, my nephew had no reflux issues and really just liked dipping backwards when being held.posted 10/15/2008 by lizzieb788
My son does the same thing and is looking for answers too, He is colicky and gassy, and really doesn't like to be held close to the face. so maybe it is early signs of introversion or it could be he's comfortable like that due to gas.posted 03/11/2010 by J-Bronson
My baby boy is 8 weeks and sleeps on his side with his back completely arched and nose pointed up....why? Is this normal? He is not comfortable any other way. I will roll him to his back, and he goes right back!!!posted 01/28/2010 by a BabyCenter Member

Predictions of a Clark victory had little to do with his being the best candidate or the most qualified candidate to take charge during this critical period in Dade's history. After all, Clark was not much of leader, or even much of a thinker. He catered to special-interest groups and allowed lobbyists unprecedented access and influence over governmental affairs.
What made Clark so formidable was the consistent support he drew from all segments of Dade's diverse population, making him far and away the most viable candidate. In that respect, Dade County may never again see another politician like Clark.
With no single candidate currently capable of galvanizing voters and scoring a certain victory, the race for Dade County mayor is up for grabs among the four major contenders: former Miami mayor Xavier Suarez, and county commissioners Maurice Ferre, Alex Penelas, and Art Teele. On September 3 voters will go to the polls to cast their ballots. A runoff among the top two finishers -- a foregone conclusion, experts predict -- will be held a month later, on October 1.
"This is the Super Bowl of Dade County politics," says Rob Schroth, a well-respected Washington, D.C., pollster who has been retained to analyze the mayor's race for WLTV (Channel 23), and whose previous clients have included the Miami Herald. "You have four of the best-known and most powerful politicians in Dade running, and I don't think a lot of the same rules are going to apply here. This will be a knock-down, drag-out fight in which the two left standing will then have to battle each other 30 days later in a runoff."
In public the candidates can be fuzzy dreamers, speaking in the broad generalities their pollsters have told them will resonate with voters. They will be opposed to crime, in favor of the environment, supportive of a strong economy, concerned about taxes, eager to cut government waste, and committed to reasonable management of urban growth. They will use television and radio advertising to define their image, convey their message, and convince you to vote for them -- all in 30 seconds or less.
And naturally they will speak about uniting this divided community. Those speeches, however, will be delivered with a fair amount of hypocrisy. For each candidate knows that in order to be elected, he must secretly play to Dade's racial and ethnic divisions. Effective exploitation of those divisions will be one part artistry and one part meticulously precise science.
From the perspective of the candidates and their campaign advisers, there is no such thing as a "Dade County voter." Instead there are six distinct groups of voters: blacks, Jews, non-Jewish Anglos, American-born Hispanics, Cuban-born Hispanics, and Hispanics born in neither the United States nor Cuba. Victory at the polls will require a different strategy for each, and development of those strategies has required detailed analysis of the number of registered voters in each group, what percentage of them are likely to vote, and -- most important -- how many of their votes must be won in order to succeed.
Call it ethnic arithmetic.
If that seems shamelessly cynical, consider this: Political campaigns are never really about issues, they are about numbers. What percentage of Cuban-born voters does Penelas need in order to give him a shot at a runoff? How large a turnout among black voters must Teele generate to keep his campaign alive? How many percentage points is a Miami Herald endorsement worth in the American-born Hispanic community? How much is it worth in the Jewish community?
With such intense scrutiny being given to all manner of issues, members of the voting public might be forgiven for developing their own hardened cases of cynicism. For instance, they might well wonder whether Teele's opposition to the development of Homestead Air Force Base by a group of Cuban-American investors is based upon principled objections to the selection process or because he needs the support of non-Jewish Anglos in South Dade? Does Penelas truly believe that the gasoline tax is an evil abomination or is he catering to Cuban-born voters because his analysis tells him they form the foundation of his campaign?
Though the candidates and their staffs are reluctant to acknowledge it publicly, such considerations (and dozens of other questions) are being studied, analyzed, and fretted over. Pollsters and consultants are being paid tens of thousands of dollars for answers, all of which derive from a few basic assumptions. Registered voters in Dade County number approximately 775,000. Actual voter turnout on Tuesday, September 3, is predicted to be somewhere between 33 percent and 37 percent, which means 255,000 to 285,000 votes will be cast in that first round of balloting.

As someone who not only loves horror movies but who also roots for movie killers with gleeful aplomb, it's nice to get a glimpse into the weekend life of a sadistic movie killer.
In 'Saturday the 14th,' a hilarious animated short film from Kristjan Lyngmo of the Vancouver Film school, we see the mundane details of what happens when a serial killer named 'Mason' goes home for the night after a busy night of slashing up teenagers and bashing bodies in sleeping bags against tree trunks. However, not every day can be Friday the 13th, and even supernatural serial killers need to eat, brush their teeth, maintain hygiene and keep their home clean. Like most movie killers, we never see Mason's face, but that makes it all the funnier as he tries to sip a drink through a straw or brush his teeth before bed. Make sure you watch until the end for a hilarious and frankly startling surprise!
Saturday the 14th is currently up for a CG Student award, which is voted on by the general public.

We are 12 weeks into our tomato crop with Aerogarden. We tried the salad greens before this and had them every day until they bolted. Currently, one of the red heirlooms has not even flowered yet. We have abundant fruit set on the others and are anxiously awaiting ripening. We are currently building a NFT system for our stawberry runners from last year. |

I am concerned about how much space I need to grow tomatoes hydroponically. Is it necessary to trellis the plants? I have limited space and want to ensure my other plants receive equal priority. How tall do you let your tomatoes grow in the veg cycle before you start flowering? Thanks, Kinderella |

How are you guys growing tomatoes in such a small space? I've seen one of these units in the store and don't understand how you would have room for even a small tomato plant. Thanks! |
I only have minimal experience growing tomatos and none in hydro yet but my guesses on the answers to the questions. Small growing varieties of patio plants might be easy enough as they are meant to be small and would only need a little support. Most tomatos do need some sort of support, staking, strins, tressising, etc. especially in hydro systems where they aren't getting much support from the media. I don't know the aerogarden but I suspect large plants would need a fair amount of support. Kinderella, |

I agree with the others that your spacing may be inadequate, but if you are going to continue to grow in a confined space i would recommend that you LST( low stress training) the plants, it is a bit late but may help, attempt to tie the top of the plant( i use nylon twist ties loosely) and slowly bend the top of the plant down to the side of the pot( string and a weight or whatever) this should help with more light exposure and height. Tomatoes are light gluttons and any bit of natural light might help as well (south facing window?). Also check you nutrient regime, although tomatoes can grow solely on a premixed nute you might want to switch to something else to give the tomatoes the nutes they need when they need it (fox farm have some good options such as cha-ching for early flowering help). save the premix nutrients for no plowering or fruiting plants( lettuce) Keep your pH 6-7 and you should see results. Best of luck IM |
Does anyone know the difference between the original AeroGarden and the latest AeroGarden Pro? Thinking of asking Santa for this and would like to know why the Pro is $20 more. Thanks! |

If you want to grow tomatoes better consider the deluxe model. It has 3 grow bulbs. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Aerogarden Deluxe
My tomato Aerogarden has been growing nicely,- I have red and yellow tomatoes although I prefer the red ones. Can anyone tell me if it would be ok to grow only the red heirloom tomatoes in all 3 slots of the Aerogarden. The center slot is for the yellow ones. Would planting red heirloom in the center position provide improper light? Thanks. Attymusic |

My first experiement growing tomatos hydroponically. You can check out this other thread to get a jist of the success and possible trouble I am currently investigating, as to why they are flowering while so short: My tomato thread: Here are the pics: |

If you have the older two light Aerogarden, the center plant will grow slower than the other two because it gets slightly less light. You can certainly plant red tomatoes in 3 of the slots, but they have to be a 'dwarf' type tomato plant. 'Tiny Tim' is the only one of that type that I know by name, but I'm sure there are tons of others available at seed stores or internet seed sites. When you say 'heirloom' tomatoes, it sounds like you are wanting to produce full-sized tomatoes from full-sized tomato plants. If that's what you mean, you should know that is not a possibility with an Aerogarden. Not even the new one specifically designed to handle regular tomato plants are up to the task. They would drink the water reservoir dry a few times a day. Dwarf red cherry tomato plants seem to grow well in the thing though. Here's mine. I put some rockwool cubes into it and added tiny tim seeds 5 weeks ago. I only had blue painter's tape to cover the other holes, but I wasn't going for aesthetics anyway :) They haven't produced any flowers yet, but are budding. I'm keeping the water at ~2,500 ppm (I'm guessing. My meter only goes to 2,000 :( ) per grizzman's suggestion, and all seems to be going well. |
Your tomato plants look very healthy. I have the Aerogarden Deluxe (with the stronger lights). I am growing the red heirlooms cherry tomatoes that are manuf/provided by Aerogarden. They are doing very nicely. However, since I have the deluxe lights, next time I am going to go ahead and plant only the red heirlooms in all three slots instead of 2 cherry heirloom and 1 yellow (golden harvest) as is directed. |

attymusic, I'm thinking of getting an Aerogarden for a friend of mine who likes to grow cherry tomatoes. I noticed you have the Aerogarden deluxe. I also notice aerogarden.com is selling a pro 200 model that looks very similar to the deluxe model. Do you know of any difference between the two models and which one might be better for growing tomatos? anyone else know? |
Hi. Below is a really good website that summarizes (much better than I could) each Aerogarden model. Generally speaking, the Deluxe has a lamphood which provides twice as much light as the original (classic) model. This Deluxe model has enabled me to grow much bigger and beautiful cherry tomatoes - a big improvement over the ones I grew with the Classic original Aerogarden. I think the Pro also offers the same light (but not sure so please check). However, the Pro also offers more sophisticated technology. I read some criticism by some consumers about the Pro model - that it wasn't worth the extra money. I am doing fine without the added technology. The Deluxe model always tells me when I need to add water (just keep the water line at the indicated level) and "feed" it every two weeks. The lights automatically go off for 8 hours to give the tomatoes their required darkness. But check out the website below and see what you think. http://www.simplyhydroponics.com/aerogardens.htm |

From the picture from 'Iliketoast', I see you didnt cut your tomatos back at the 5 week mark. Or you havent done it yet? You need to cut them back as the booklet says,or you will have tons of plant, and next to no fruit. It makes them much more sturdy,and able t hold more fruit. Mine grew for over 5 months and got a lot of fruit off of them all. BUT you need to cut them back as the booklet says...or you will be very unhappy. |
So after you use up the seeds and fertilizer that comes with it, can you use other brand seeds and nutes? What maintenance is involved? I've been thinkng about making a DWC system, but I am a small person and draining and disposing all that water looks like it's going to pose a problem for me. |
My tomato Aerogarden did well this time with the "Deluxe" lights. I am nearing my last "harvest" so I'd like to include the links to 2 pictures. This is my first attempt to send pictures (via Photobucket) so I hope it comes out. Couldn't figure out how to paste image right onto the post. http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/attymusic/Tomato_Aerogarden.jpg http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn320/attymusic/Tomatoes3_Aerogarden.jpg |
We have four of the aerogardens with various things. One is the tomatoes. Our first crop did very well, but the second set of buds are right up at the lights in the highest position. I don't see how they can grow properly without the special higher 'stalk' light that they sell as an option. To tie them up, I drilled some small holes in the rim of the light hood and used small brass 'S' hooks to tie black shoe laces to which lead to the plants. We won't be doing tomatoes again for a while. We love the lettuces and they grow like crazy! Also, the herbs are something we would otherwise not use because of the crazy prices at the supermarket (if you can find them). Love the herbs.... |

I just had my aerogarden 2 days back and have created an aerogarden community at Aerogardeners.com there you can share photos, swap seeds and most importantly swap tips and tricks about modding your Aerogarden ! I have started off with the Gourmet herbs to get used to the system but plan to grow one cherry tomato and two dwarf bell pepper trees in the next aerogarden season. |

Any more pictures of your more mature plants to post? How many tomatoes in all did you harvest? |

I have tried growing tomatoes in the Deluxe and had some difficulty. For the first few weeks they looked great, but soon they became dry, and crispy at the bottom of the plant. I began changing the water weekly, but think I was too late. From three tomato plants I harvested five tomatoes. I went to the hardware store where they used to sell Aerogrow and their plants looked as bad or worse than mine. I also need to get a better idea about cutting the plants back. I have read the book but apparently missed something because my plants became primarily stem with the leaves up in the lights. I am ecouraged by your successes and ready to take my Aerogarden off the basement shelf again. Thank you all. |

Washington Governor Jay Inslee has acknowledged the Oso landslide could be the deadliest natural disaster in state history.
So far 25 people have been confirmed killed and as many as 90 remain missing. If the ultimate death toll reaches 100 that would eclipse even the 1910 Stevens Pass avalanche that hit two trains.
"We do know this could end up being the largest mass loss of Washingtonians, but whether it is or is not it does not change on how we are approaching this," said the governor after a bill signing ceremony at the Capitol in Olympia.
Inslee says that approach is to mount a full scale rescue effort. He adds that any one loss is a tragedy.

By James Slater - Though he enjoyed a fine year in 2010, Puerto Rican sensation Juan Manuel Lopez failed to win the Fighter of The Year award on any major lists. The unbeaten, now two-weight world champion stopped three good men this year - Steven Luevano, Bernabe Concepcion and, most impressively Rafael Marquez. Perhaps in a different twelve months, that would have been enough for Juanma to have gotten a few mentions as far as the FOTY distinction goes. But this year, Argentine superstar Sergio Gabriel Martinez was doing his stuff at the highest level, and his two huge wins earned him FOTY honours.. Lopez, still only 27-years-old and already 30-0(27) as a pro, looks set to return to action in his native Puerto Rico in April, and sources suggest unbeaten yet unknown Philly fighter Teon Kennedy could be the opponent. This fight (if it happens) is not the best way Lopez could have kicked off his 2011, yet bigger and better fights await him down the road. With bouts against Yuriorkis Gamboa and Chris John mentioned as real possibilities, the reigning WBO featherweight king might just win himself the FOTY award in 2011. But what can we expect from the fight with the 24-year-old Kennedy? The unbeaten super-bantamweight turned pro in Jan. 2007, and he has never met anyone remotely approaching the class and power of Lopez. At 16-0-1(7), Kennedy has a good-looking record, but he has met no instantly recognisable names. The draw came against Lante Addy of Ghana; a fighter who is durable, having gone the distance with Jason Booth, Guilermo Rigondeaux and Kiko Martinez amongst others. Kennedy has definite skill and promise, but it will be some audacious move on the part of his management team if they do actually put him in with the ferocious southpaw next spring. Lopez looks destined for greatness in the opinion of many, and he has proven he can take a punch and come back from it, as well as fight hard for the full 12-rounds if needed. Okay, Juanmas chin is far from made of granite, but he has amazing recuperative powers. Much like countryman and idol Felix Trinidad, Lopez comes back stronger after hes been knocked down. Relative feather-fist Kennedy (just those 7 stoppage wins) doesnt figure to hurt or knock down Lopez, thats for sure. Neither does the USBA and NABA super-bantamweight champ figure to spoil any of the lofty plans Lopez and his team have for 2011. Still, it will be good to see the most exciting fighter in all of boxing back in action. Hopefully, though, after he takes care of Kennedy, Lopez will get the big, big fights he and his fans want. Juanma has yet to reach his peak, he says he can win titles as high as lightweight, maybe even light-welterweight, and it sure is gonna be exciting watching to see how good he really can become. 2011 promises to be an excellent year for the lower weight classes in general. Lopez may well be at the forefront when it comes to the little guys giving us tremendous fights. (Merry Christmas to all ESB readers!)

Citigroup Inc. cut its recommendation on OAO GMK Norilsk Nickel, citing a ``weak outlook'' for the metal and a dispute between shareholders.
The bank, which cuts its recommendation to ``sell'' from ``hold,'' also reduced its 12-month share price estimate 78 percent to $69.
``Nickel, copper and PGMs fundamentals are weak and, in addition to a fundamentally weak outlook, we believe that the ongoing battle for control could be damaging for the company,'' Moscow-based Citigroup analyst Daniel Yakub said in a report today.

President Barack Obama reassured Michigan Congress members on Sunday that GM will not move its headquarters out of the Renaissance Center as part of its bankruptcy restructuring efforts, quelling fears that the automaker would capitalize on tax incentives offered by Warren Mayor Jim Fouts.
GM CEO Fritz Henderson said last month that the automaker was open to moving out of its headquarters at the Renaissance Center in downtown Detroit, eliciting negative feedback from Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm and spurring preventative measures from Detroit Mayor Dave Bing.
GM moved its headquarters from midtown Detroit to the Renaissance Center in 1996, paying $75 million to occupy the space and doling out another $500 million to renovate it. The move helped inspire the renovations of several other downtown Detroit buildings as well, leading many to see the Renaissance Center -- with GM's presence -- as a driving force of a downtown resurgence.
But as financial hardship struck GM, the Renaissance Center became increasingly unoccupied. Just weeks before GM was expected to file for bankruptcy, Fouts mounted a campaign to lure GM to Warren, a Detroit suburb. Fouts vowed to provide the company with a 30-year break on personal property taxes and a 12-year, 50-percent cut in general property taxes if it would relocate its world headquarters to Warren, where the automaker already has a sprawling research and development center.
But Obama said Sunday that GM would not abandon its current headquarters. He called it a "GM business decision," according to a congressional aide cited by the Detroit News.
Fouts said Sunday night that GM could have saved millions by moving its headquarters, and that he hopes the decision to stay in Detroit wasn't made out of "political correctness."
"My mantra has been it's not about the image," he said. "It's about saving jobs and saving GM."
An interesting statement, considering it may well have been GM's image -- as a maker of gas-guzzling, unreliable SUVs -- that played the biggest role in its path to bankruptcy.

Some family members with no internet access just moved into a condo that has beautiful quartz countertops, but 40 year old bathroom cabinets with no drawer glides or tracks, unlined drawer box bottoms, and squeaky hinges. They are a neutral painted bright white color, but are beyond builder base grade, especially being 40 years old. Replacing them and putting in 34" tall cabinets would require a new countertop, mirror, sinks etc. I was thinking that if they put in new 31" cabinets and can save/reuse/not disrupt the existing quartz counter, then that would be a good compromise. Can this be done? If not, then what do you all think about refacing and adding glides/tracks to the drawers? |
Follow-Up Postings:
the top is probably just attached with silicone, or metal clips, so you should be able to remove it. |
- Posted by OldTimeCarpenter1 (email@example.com) on Tue, Mar 25, 14 at 11:46
Yes, you are doing to have to remove it, you can't just slip new cabinet beneath an installed countertop. The countertop is probably glued with silicon. Which means that it is not going to be easy to remove. Silicon really sticks. We generally remove a top by demolishing the center cabinets of a run, supporting the top at both ends, then support the cabinet with a temporary brace while we remove one end cabinet. Then you should be able to lever the top up which will release it from the other end cabinet, but have someone standing buy with a saw to slice through the silicon seal if required. Good luck with this, it's not easy, and the top will be very heavy. Start with a small top first while you get the hang of it. |
OldTimeCarpenter1: Thanks for the information. Probably not a good idea to chance it with there being a 4" backsplash and mirror right on top of it. Would a carpenter be able to add under mount or side mount drawer glides and a soft close element to the drawers? |
- Posted by OldTimeCarpenter1 (My Page) on Wed, Mar 26, 14 at 2:56
You probably cannot add gliding hardware to existing drawers, but any cabinet shop can make new drawers and gliding hardware and install them. Do this the easy way. Imaging the cabinets without doors or drawers -- or, if you are imagination deprived like me -- draw them to scale (still have your old high school drafting kit?). Then decide if you want doors or drawers and what size based on what you are going to store in them. Treat the existing cabinets like open-faced empty boxes, and start with that. |
- Posted by Trebruchet (email@example.com) on Wed, Mar 26, 14 at 17:52
Quartz has much more strength in tension than granite. It is very unlikely that you will damage it by driving a stiff scraper between the top of the cabinets and the bottom of the tops. You can have new cabinets installed for as much as someone is going to charge you to repair the old ones. |

The Gift of Music: 5 Christmas Time Mixtapes We'll Still Listen to in 2013
Pro Era - PEEP The aPROcalypse
Brooklyn's 17-year-old Joey BadA$$ turned heads this year with his stellar 1999 mixtape and a standout performance at the BET Hip-Hop Awards. In rap tradition, he's bringing his crew along with him. Pro Era made its formal introduction with PEEP The aPROcalypse on December 21, and the 'Net was buzzing about the group of teenagers' talented rhyme skills and beats by the likes of Statik Selektah and Lee Bannon. The disc also will unfortunately also be associated with tragedy, as news of an apparent suicide by group member Capital STEEZ, 19, surfaced just days later on Christmas Eve.
