Why would more than a dozen teen and college students spend a portion of their summer vacation volunteering at KershawHealth medical center? For some -- especially younger students -- it's a chance to gain valuable work experience. Others are looking for opportunities that can help give life to a medical school applicant's personal statement, or add valuable "points" to school or scholarship applications to give them a competitive edge. For most, though, it's the opportunity to learn more about healthcare and to get that all-important insider's view of the industry.
I have a confession to make. When it comes to my own hard-earned dollars, I'm a bit stingy. Now, I believe giving to charity is a great thing. And if someone I know needs a volunteer, I'm one of the first to step to the plate and give my time. However, when it comes time for me to ante up cash, I can come up with a million reasons why I can't afford it.

Outdoor enthusiasts who regularly don their walking footwear and outdoor equipment to enjoy Dartmoor National Park are being urged to send in suggestions on how to improve the area.
The Dartmoor National Park Authority is currently asking for feedback on its new draft document released today, which outlines development management policies for the park to encourage sustainability.
It covers areas such as housing, traffic and tourism and shows how land in the park will be allocated up to 2026.
Phil Markham, head of forward planning for the Dartmoor National Park Authority, said: "It is really important to get as much public feedback as possible to ensure that this is a plan fit for the future of the National Park which takes into consideration the views of its communities."
Dartmoor National Park contains a series of outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, climbing and horse-riding, for sporty individuals looking to exercise while visiting south-east England.

African heads of state may be coming down on Sudan
(Read article summary)A meeting between African heads of state was moved from Kenya to Ethiopia and has now been postponed. The warrant for Sudan President Bashir's arrest could be a factor.
Mohamed Nureldin Abdallah/Reuters
A high-level gathering of the east African regional body IGAD (Intergovernmental Authority on Development), shifted from Kenya to Ethopia to accommodate Sudanese President Bashir, has been postponed. The meeting, focused on Sudan's upcoming referenda, was scheduled to begin tomorrow and is now tentatively planned for next weekend, according to an Enough source involved in the talks who wished to remain anonymous.
On the surface the controversy of the IGAD meeting appears as yet another gesture to undermine the ICC and flout the court's arrest warrant for Bashir, but it can also be seen as a small victory.
News of Bashir's likely attendance stirred up controversy in Kenya just two months after Kenya's constitution ceremony was overshadowed by the Sudanese president's participation. Kenya, an ICC member state, was widely condemned for allowing Bashir to travel freely for the ceremony, especially given its own ongoing ICC investigation into post-election violence. A group of more than 20 human rights and civil society organizations sent a letter to the Kenyan president and prime minister calling on Kenya to respect its obligations as an ICC member state and bar Bashir from traveling to Kenya.
"A visit by al-Bashir would run counter to Kenya's commitment to the ICC. It would also send damaging signals to victims of mass atrocity in Darfur and undermine Kenya's credibility on issues of justice," the statement said.

March 20 The Moonlight Fund takes delivery of the first chair. The all-terrain Action Trackchair gives Soldiers who have suffered multiple amputations the ability to do outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing hiking.
The Moonlight Fund provides 24/7 assistance to burn survivors and their family members, as well as families who have lost a loved one to a burn injury. The Moonlight Fund addresses the financial, emotional and physical needs in the hour of need. The Moonlight Fund is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
In addition to the human loss and suffering from a burn injury, often homes and personal belongings are destroyed as a result of fire and even jobs are lost due to extended medical treatment. What's more, many burn patients are uninsured or on government assistance, encumbering them and their families financially when ongoing treatment, such as physical therapy or psychological counseling, is needed the most.
Moonlight Fund has earned this award every year since 2008.

Ga. deputy dies in car crash
The Associated Press
Officer Down: Deputy Sheriff Marvin Jerome Scarlett
MCDONOUGH, Ga. — Authorities say a Henry County sheriff's deputy was killed when his cruiser plowed into three trucks while responding to a traffic accident.
Authorities said 42-year-old Marvin Jerome Scarlett died about 5 am yesterday at the scene of the crash on I-75 just north of Georgia 20.
A spokesman for the Georgia State Patrol, Larry Schnall, says Scarlett was on his way to the scene of a wreck when he came upon traffic that had backed up because of the accident. He says the officer's car struck a pickup truck, a box truk and then a tractor-trailer. There were no other injuries.
The sheriff's office said Scarlett had been a Henry County deputy since 2001.

In this remarkable and groundbreaking book, Kenan Malik explores the history of moral thought as it has developed over three millennia, from Homer's Greece to Mao's China, from ancient India to modern America. It tells the stories of the great philosophers, and breathes life into their ideas, while also challenging many of our most cherished moral beliefs.
Engaging and provocative, The Quest for a Moral Compass confronts some of humanity's deepest questions. Where do values come from? Is God necessary for moral guidance? Are there absolute moral truths? It also brings morality down to earth, showing how, throughout history, social needs and political desires have shaped moral thinking. It is a history of the world told through the history of moral thought, and a history of moral thought that casts new light on global history.
"What I love about Kenan Malik's book is its unashamed, unabashed ambition: he wants to write the history of moral thought, not just in the Western tradition, but of all the traditions that make up the global argument about the direction that the human moral compass should point. The result is a tour de force of lucidity and narrative skill."
—Michael Ignatieff
"An absolute tour de force. I can imagine it replacing Bertrand Russell's History of Western Philosophy on many a bookshelf—certainly mine."
—Tom Holland, author of In the Shadow of the Sword: The Birth of Islam and the Rise of the Global Arab Empire
"This is an extraordinarily rewarding investigation of the most striking, and contested, aspect of our humanity . . . To read it is not only to be better informed but also to be more alert to the assumptions that have guided human beings in the past, and to our capacity for goodness and wickedness."
—Raymond Tallis, author of The Kingdom of Infinite Space

Would love to see an article on what talent trees each class should concentrate on if they are aiming to solo. I am not all that interested in endgame and raid stuff and I only have one level 70 (hunter). I would like to get each class to 70 but have had issues with mages and locks. Any ideas?

America's most popular pro sports league and YouTube announced a partnership Monday between two of the most powerful brands in the marketplace, creating an official NFL channel on the video website. Content posted daily to the portal by the league will include game previews, in-game highlights, post-game recaps and clips featuring news, analysis, fantasy football advice and other original programming from NFL Network and NFL.com.
With up to 3 feet of snow forecast Monday night into Tuesday, Time Warner Cable has geared up for the blizzard of historic proportions. Time Warner Cable has been down this road before in its New York City footprint after 9/11 in 2001 and Super Storm Sandy three years ago, so the nation's second largest cable operator started mobilizing its techs.
Satellite TV provider Dish Network made a splash this month when it unveiled an online alternative with fewer channels and a lower price tag than its regular service. Based on a few days of viewing, Sling TV comes across as a good stopgap for those who don't already pay for cable or satellite — but it's not compelling enough for most people to cut the cord.
Verizon provided its software-upgradeable FiOS Quantum Gateway with its first set of new features, the most prominent of which is guest Wi-Fi, which the company gushes is "perfect for gatherings or businesses." The updates also include parental controls.
Customers of both OpenVault and FourthWall will be able to get an integrated view of the data from both their cable modems and set-top boxes now that OpenVault has licensed the use of STB diagnostics from FourthWall's MassiveData division.
According to recent research by Parks Associates, 17 percent of the broadband homes across the nation were likely to subscribe to HBO's standalone, over-the-top service. Out of that group of would be HBO users—the service is supposed to launch sometime this year—91 percent were currently pay-TV subscribers, and roughly one-half would drop their pay-tv service after subscribing to HBO's new OTT service.
Suddenlink Communications customers that subscribe to Showtime Networks can now tap into Showtime Anytime TV Everywhere programming anywhere in the United States. Suddenlink's authenticated subscribers can access Showtime Anytime's on demand video content on their computer, tablet, mobile device, Apple TV, Roku, Google Chromecast and Amazon Fire TV streaming devices, or Xbox One and Xbox 360 game consoles.
In true San Francisco irony, smartphones were used Thursday to snap pictures of a historic phone that was used to make the first coast-to-coast phone call 100 years ago. On Jan. 25, 1915, to celebrate the completion of the Panama Canal and to show that San Francisco had recovered from the 1906 earthquake and fire, American Telephone and Telegraph Co. conducted a call between the city and New York.
By one estimation, Google's ultimate goal is to force down prices in wireline broadband. The Internet search giant has reportedly codenamed the new venture Nova and a number of employees at the company have already tested the service. The service will likely launch this year.
CFO Fran Shammo teased about an over-the-top product that might be introduced in the summer. He said the IoT is now a defined, growing business with specific revenue attached. He also reiterated Verizon's opposition to Title II reclassification.
In an effort to keep broadband subscribers up to speed on their data-plan usage, GCI has launched its "No Worries" broadband tiers. The No Worries broadband plans give GCI subscribers the ability to manage their monthly Internet bills, which in turn should eliminate surprise overage fees.
Cox Communications had promoted Janice Roberts to senior vice president of field services. With the promotion, Roberts now manages all residential and Cox Business field operations across Cox's footprint, including regional call centers and operations support at the company's Atlanta headquarters.
Read through the tweets posted by CraveTV and Shomi and you'll see suggestions that users might finally get Apple TV apps to access the Canadian streaming services. If it was up to Bell Media, CraveTV would've launched with an Apple TV app, so users could stream content to their big screen TVs easily. But Apple didn't allow it to happen.
In recent weeks, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has talked about lofting a network of satellites that would be used for delivering broadband services, including remotest areas on Earth. Speculation is that Google might be investing to help finance that vision.
Mike LaJoie, former executive vice president and chief technology officer of Time Warner Cable (TWC), has joined Guavus' board of directors and will serve as chairman of the board. The company specializes in big data analytics solutions for operational intelligence and the Internet of Things.

Lufkin — Residents of Silver Creek Apartment's Block Six spent Wednesday picking through their waterlogged and smoke-damaged belongings after a fire tore through the units early that morning.
"I went to bed, but then I heard someone saying that there was smoke," said Sheila Merchant, who lived in one of the apartments that caught fire. "People were rushing outside, and we just stood together and watched the apartment go up in smoke."

Hello everybody
Guess I'll introduce myself then, since I'm new here. Where to start? hmm, let's see. I come from North-Norway (pretty close to the Northcape), and ehm...I've been an Ozzyfan since 2002, I think. I first began to watch The Osbournes, and then I began to listen to Sabbath, The Ozzy Osbourne Years, and later on I got myself Ozzy solocd's too. So yeah, I'm a fan ;) Looove Ozzy's work! I joined this site to discuss some Ozzystuff with you guys, and it seems nice here :)
Don't really know how to finish off this thing, so I'll just say thanks for the attention :)

Your entire elaborate argument is based on a false premise.
As I said, the road damage is exponential with the weight. It is proportional to the axle weight to the fourth power.
Fuel economy is roughly linear with weight, or even less than linear (big rigs get much better MPG per ton than smaller vehicles). Therefore, fuel taxes don't begin to recover the extra costs of heavier vehicles.
Who has made the stupidest argument you've ever heard now? You might look in the mirror.

Andy Murray beats Gilles Simon to reach Australian Open quarters
Australian Open
- Venue: Melbourne Park
- Date: 14-27 January
Coverage: BBC Sport website (daily live text commentaries), Radio 5 live (commentaries) & TV/online streaming (both finals)
Andy Murray barely broke sweat as he reached the last eight at the Australian Open with victory over an exhausted Gilles Simon.
In a low-key afternoon encounter on Hisense Arena, the Briton won 6-3 6-1 6-3 in one hour and 32 minutes.
Murray, 25, is through to the quarter-finals in Melbourne for the fourth year in a row, and will play another Frenchman, Jeremy Chardy, on Wednesday.
Murray in Melbourne
- R1 beat Haase 6-3 6-1 6-3
- R2 beat Sousa 6-2 6-2 6-4
- R3 beat Berankis 6-3 6-4 7-5
- R4 beat Simon 6-3 6-1 6-3
He has yet to drop a set in four matches and enters the final stages as fresh as he could possibly hope for.
Up against a player who could barely walk after his near five-hour win in the last round, and with a 9-1 record in their previous meetings, Monday's match never threatened to extend the Scot.
"It was a tough situation for both players - more obviously for him," said Murray. "After the first few games, it didn't feel that competitive. At this stage of a Grand Slam, you're sort of geed up and prepared for a tough battle.
"That's why it becomes hard, because the emotions aren't quite into it. You're not quite necessarily feeling pressure, but you're wanting to try to finish the match as quickly as possible.

"It was quite a tough situation for both of us."
Simon, 28, said he had "completely lost control" during the gruelling four hours and 43 minutes required to see off Gael Monfils in round three, and gave himself little chance of challenging Murray.
The US Open champion did his best to help him out early on.
After breaking serve immediately, Murray handed it straight back to love with a poor service game that saw him misjudge a Simon drop shot and then fire a backhand wide and a forehand into the net.
Murray was hardly bristling with intent, and the Hisense Arena crowd - in marked contrast to the previous night's crackling atmosphere on Rod Laver Arena - was sleepy.
Simon simply did not have the legs to test Murray, who sensibly had him on the move from the word go. The Frenchman sent a forehand wide to make it three breaks in a row, and that was pretty much that.
Murray wrapped up the first set after 37 minutes that had seen the pair hit 31 unforced errors between them, and just 11 winners.
Murray Q&A
"On clay Lendl would have beaten me, on grass I think I might have beaten him and on hard courts... it would have been a good match!
Simon was visibly struggling by now, barely moving for one thumping Murray forehand, but the third seed again handed back an early break thanks in part to a wayward overhead.
It did not signal a fightback - Murray rattled off the next four games to move two sets clear as Simon slowed by the game.
A retirement looked on the cards when Simon had to stop and stretch at one point in the closing games, before swatting a seemingly unmissable forehand into the tramlines.
However, the Frenchman at least made it to the end.
Murray put Simon out of his misery on his second match point to wrap up a win that will not live long in the memory, but will serve the Briton better than the type of marathon match seen already this week.
"It was just difficult for me today," said Simon. "I knew it before, but I think I did all I could for the last two days to be able to play this one.
"It was a painful hour and a half on the court. But, you know, Andy is a very good player anyway so it's always very hard to beat him. Without being 100% you have almost no chance to do it.
"I just wanted to do my best at any moment. But it was getting worse and worse on the court. It was a really difficult day."

23rd January 2013 - 23:18Following on I accept your right to like now accept mine to dislike him there are negative aspects like everyone but then I don't present myself for sports personality of the year so i can criticize him for his personality Other people's personality have been slated like i said rightly or wrongly but you can't argue they were successful in their aim buthey lets just say MURRAY is better than pete!

You just don't get not anything to do with a Scottish/English divide I like scottish people and there have been very successful characters at their job in history but I know if I mention them I will be accused of breaking the rules Murray is a good tennis player but saying he inspires a generation of tennis players I contest it'snot just about good tennis but character -

Now that's what I call an embarrassing comment. -

23rd January 2013 - 7:57@446 from your comment at 444 it appears you do. What an embarrassing comment to make. He even told you he was in a sensible timezone to watch the match, yet you still couldn't comprehend he might not be in the UK.

23rd January 2013 - 7:06Well done Andy ... solid performance and great result. One of the best ever defensive retieving shots ever from Andy showed just how quick he is and the racquet skills he poses. He's achieved his seeding and will certainly give Fed a run for his money ... am hoping that Andy will fire up all 12 cylinders from now on.

How do you get going again after pregnancy?
Phew - permanent contract is being written up as we speak! I love my boss (not her fault it has taken so long!).
School dinners don't exist here so its packed lunches all the way. M is ok with lunches but a disaster at dinner at the moment - sigh!! Will get tough on it once this stupid operation is out of the way!
yay hoggle. what a relief!
I suppose i'm a bit biased where school dinners go. mine were so awful that to this day I can't really eat proper meat. School roast dinners, which we seemed to have all the time, and also pies were so awful that the only kind of meat I can eat is stuff which has been processed beyond recognition (eg sausages, chorizo, ham) or else mince. I can manage a chicken breast but only because we never had them at school. I cannot eat lamb after the greasy grimness of slices of cold rank lamb at school. And I hate pies because I just assume there is going to be loads of fat and gristle under the pastry because that's what school dinners were like. I trust the fact that both of my kids will be good eaters who will have things they don't like (J has NEVER liked potatoes and E currently won't eat anything cold - sigh) but ultimately that they will be given the opportunity to experiment and try other foods. Personally - I don't need school meals to offer my kids the range of exposure to food that will be necessary to ensure they enjoy food going forwards. And don't live on greggs sausage rolls and chips every day.
However, I know this isn't the case for all kids. So if school meals were improved, I would be happy for my 2 to have them. and E in fact will have to anyway as she won't eat sandwiches, cold pasta, cold chicken, cold egg or anything cold, other than fruit, raw pepper and crisps. I can't send her to school every day with just fruit, raw pepper and crisps, so she will have to have dinners! But J will have packed lunch as I don't feel it's necessary for him to have school dinners to 'broaden his tastes', since he simply doesn't eat them (on the 2 days a week he has had them for the last 2 years). His teacher called me aside to say they were concerned he wasn't eating school dinners and that he was struggling as the days he was having dinners were the days he was then going to after school club because he was at his dad's. That was enough to convince me there was no point. WHY pay £2 for a hot meal that a child refuses to eat week in / week out when they could have a fairly balanced packed lunch that they will eat. He leaves home at 8am and gets back at 6.30pm on those days. And was eating ... nothing much in between...
Brookie - power walking or just plain walking sounds good as does swimming? I didnt run when preg either.
CM. - I think you put so much healthy stuff into your kids the odd treat doesn't hurt. Glad the party went well. can't believe J is only 7, he is so big! Tom still hasn't grown into most of the clothes you gave him!
Tom always has school dinners but Archie insists on a lunchbox - sandwich / roll, cheese string and 3pieces of fruit normally. If I put anything extra like a cereal bar he eats that and leaves the sandwich...... can't blame kids for wanting the 'nice things' and I despair when parents buy chocolate cereal or frosties type and then wonder why their kids won't eat plain stuff. It is hard sticking to no sweets and the boys do get the odd one when we aren't around but easier to say no all the time than to say no sometimes and have constant requests (like we get for yogs, icecreams etc).
J is enormous - I do worry about how big he is and the quantity he can put away. I posted on here about how much he can eat in one go, and I do know that sometimes kids grow UP because they are overfed and then stop growing at a relatively young age because they have reached their natural height and then grow OUT because they are used to eating too much. T certainly overfeeds, and sometimes it's hard not to with J. his enthusiasm for breakfast - porridge and Weetabix and fruit and yoghurt, none of which, on its own, is a problem but combined?! in one sitting?! so individually it's hard to refuse, but the requests come one after another. and then I think sometimes when he is going to T's that he won't eat his school dinner or the tea at after school club, so what he has at 7am has to see him through till 6.30pm more or less. Gah - it's hard!
Certainly - I don't feel I have complete control over what J eats because his dad feeds him whatever he sees fit to do (sweets from the garage on the way home most days he picks them up for instance), so my hardnosed stance would have very little effect anyway.
Our school dinners are good. They get 3 choices every day, always fresh fruit and yoghurt if they want it, but nice things like chocolate beet root cake as well! Always a veggie option, and not always potatos. They're not cooked on site, only one school nearby has a kitchen so several hundred are cooked there and then they are driven over, so who knows how warm they are when they're actually eaten! All the fish is sustainable and the food is sourced locally wherever possible, eggs are free range etc etc, so not bad for £2, but its still cheaper for me to make a packed lunch.
Hmmm I see what you mean CM, hard not to over feed any child but with one who has a huge appetite it must be more of a worry. I guess though that fact that he is lean and in proportion shows he is only eating what he needs to grow and there isn't much left over! Hopefully once he reaches adult size his appetite will adjust accordingly and he won't feel so hungry.
another sleepless night..... so tired.
Packed lunches are a pain in the arse, I hate them. Or school lunches are fab but I can't afford all ours to have them. I give mine a filled roll, two pieces of fruit, some have a yog, sometimes mini cheddars but no other crisps. Reece sometimes take leftover chilli/spag etc in a thermos pot because he rarely eats his roll. He eats rolls at home but for some reason which we never quite get to the bottom of he wont eat them at school. Doesn't want to miss playtime I think. On Fridays they get a choccie biscuit. I find it hard to vary the rolls - what filling is healthy now a days, processed ham is no go, tined tuna but not every day because of the mercury link, most of the cheese has really high salt, mine love smoked pork sausage but again processed meat... argh. Variety I guess. Fruit costs a bloody fortune. There are 8 of us and if we all eat our 5 a day (which we do) you can see why my grocery bill is so high! I can understand sometimes why lower income families will opt for junk food options, when you can buy 20 bags of crisps for the price of 6 oranges! And then of course fruit rots the teeth anyway so why not give chocolate at meal times. Honestly food just makes my head spin! And trying to buy full fat yogurt seems impossible just now, everything is low fat and therefore full of sugar, I want high fat and no sugar! I still try to eat as low carb as possible but trying to feed a whole family that way would be a nightmare. I am guilty of fililng my kids full of pasta and bread as it is the most cost effective option, what a hypocrite. Anyway sorry for the ramble, you can tell it is the holidays and my kids are eating me out of house and home.
Busy weekend here. Out on a friends henny night on Saturday. Good fun and sore cheeks from all the laughing, too many cola cubes shots so was hungover yesterday and we had all hubby family here for a bbq - 8 adults and 11 kids. And it was raining so we had to be inside. Today all our Ikea stuff has arrived so in flat pack hell. Hubby off for the next two weeks and we are moving bedrooms about - the twins are going into the girls big bedroom and the girls are having the twins room and the study as their bedrooms. Which means I have to empty the study which is my dumping ground, nightmare.
Ran 10 miles this morning and my foot hurts. Hoping it is still just a bit of bruising or something but it is sort of on the bone so hope it is nothing more sinister.
I did win the race btw, but remember there was only a few of us! I was 2 hours ahead of the next two guys who finished together. But as they said, a win is a win
Hope all well with the scan JT, troublesome monkey that baby!
Well done on the run Camlo, hope it helps keep the black clouds away.
Good news on the contract Hoggle.
Better stop procrastinating and get on with stuff!
Well done Lotte! A fab win I'd say, not just a win! Hope the foot is nothing serious.
Yes I do wonder what sort of food Sophie's friends have in their lunchboxes, although the school did say at the start of the year no sweets or fizzy drinks (I mean seriously, who gives their 5 year old fizzy drinks anyway??). Sophie is very fussy when it comes to sandwiches so usually has cheese (cheddar or Babybel) or "teddy bear ham" which is ridiculously processed too. She has cucumber, grapes, a yoghurt and orange juice, and occasionally malt loaf or sultanas if I've got time! She had a packet of crisps on her birthday . She eats virtually the same thing every day, but it is healthy and she eats it all so I'm not too bothered. We try her with different things at the weekend - she forced down a quarter of a paté sandwich on Saturday! School dinners would be a disaster as she just wouldn't eat them, and she's so happy and doing so well at school I don't want to upset the apple cart.
Phew it's hot today! Another late night last night, don't know where the time goes, then 2 cats fighting twice at about 3am and 4am (not ours!), then Nicky wanted his other star at about 5.45am so I had to go downstairs and get it or risk him wailing and waking the whole house up ! Yawn .
Can't wait for the summer school to end and Sophie's term, just be a lot more chilled without the usual school rush in the morning.
Lotte - I'm not surprised you hate packed lunches, I have to make 2 on a Monday at the moment, as well as my own, and it seems to take a lot of organising!
Big fire here in Sheffield yesterday, apparently some rubbish was being burnt and it spread to a plastics recycling charity who hubby's company do the accounts for. Will be sad for them as they use the money to fund a learning centre for people with learning disabilities. You could see the smoke about 20 miles away! Smelt horrible too so we had to keep windows and doors shut for a while.
Anyway, speaking of food I should sort out the kids' tea - feeling somewhat uninspired in that area at the moment!
Lotte you make me laugh, a 'win' is one thing, being 2 HOURS ahead of the next people is a whole different kettle of fish! Also, you beating the guys too, you rock!
JT, hope all is good at your appointment today. EF's pregnancy was stressful enough for us all, we really don't need another troublesome one!
Hoggle, great news about your job, must be a load off your mind especially with everything else that is going on.
JG, the photo you put on FB of the fire looked horrific.
Food, ugh! Max would eat every meal as a 'picnic' given a choice so I guess packed lunch will be easy then when the time comes. Cheese sandwiches are currently one of his most requested food items and he eats loads of fruit too so I guess we could actually get quite a healthy meal into him in that case. I think they eat quite well at nursery at the moment, no idea what school food is like here.
Can't believe we're talking about 2014! And the scary thing is it'll be here before we know it......glad all ok JT
Note in book bag today - OFSTED! Tommorrow and Wed. So would the school only have been told today?
'A win is a win'.......hmmmmm. I'll remember that if I ever come first lady in Park run again. 5k, 100 miles - who cares It's interesting re the male/female thing though as a uni friends husband is a long distance swimmer who's done mad things like swim round Manhatten, and apparantly in ultra swimming women often win over very long distances - can the same be said of ultra running?
Yes, I think they only get 24 hours notice Caro so they are prob still busy doing prep right now!
JT, glad you have a reason for the bleeds but hope they stop soon xx
Long time no see guys
Our school dinners are horrid - and after trying them when we went in for a Mother's Day lunch - I stopped Z having them at the start of the next term: tinned carrots, frozen roast potatoes, pre-sliced 'beef' - yeuch - and that was on a day when they should have been trying hard to make a good impression!
Great news on the scan JT - don't worry about consultant visits, in my experience they were like a midwife appointment with a bit of extra chat. Most stressful is having to go to the hospital for them - and all the associated messing about / never running to time / getting parked that goes with that!
Lotte - where does your foot hurt? I am currently a foot expert, what with my bunion and partially torn plantar plate (according the first article google gives you "common in middle aged women..." ahem!). Too hot to run at the moment (for me) so haven't been doing any, plus the dog is hobbled (again) so my foot doesn't hurt so much - but I'm having to consider some surgery I think. It's just the idea of being off my feet and on crutches for at least 3 weeks - how on earth am I supposed to manage that??
ho hum
You lot make me feel terribly guilty - I was just considering some left over birthday cake (it's almost 9am and we had a bad morning!) and then I hear about al these chocolates and sweets that sit in the cupboard for months! Where's EF when I need her!!
Had to scrape ice of the windscreen this morning brrrrrr. However it's a stunning sunny day so will go somewhere with Matilda when I collect her this afternoon. She has started getting up early and getting into bed with me again and then mucking around and making me CROSS! This morning was just before 6am. I know it's completely my fault as I let it happen so need to find a way to sort it out. Especially as it won't be able to happen after my surgery. Anyway it meant that we had a whole morning or grumps from both of us!
Do you have to do anything for OFSTED Caro?
M gets a packed lunch for daycare (they do cooked lunches but they are very expensive and from what I've seen not that flash). Normally either sandwiches and fruit and a muffin or something similar. Occasionally leftover pasta. Some days she eats it all and other days she hardly touches it. AT the moment she wants to eat loads in the afternoon and then nothing for dinner. Trying to stretch her out and not snack after about 3.30 (dinner at 5) but its a struggle! I figure its a phase and we'll move onto something else in a while.
Right must do some work!!!! Am very relieved to have job sorted I must say. They had been adamant that they wouldn't loose me etc but it's nice to have it properly sorted not just someones word.
I did go running today, but about 2 hrs before hand I ate an enormous, heavy slice of choc cake leftover from the party the kids went to yesterday. I did manage to rexist one of the magnum infinites that I bought in tesco this morning as they were half price......tomorrow maybe! What's in a mini milk? eric rather likes them. I'm scared to look incase they're rubbish(it's got the word milk in, it has to be good!)
This is the school dinner menu, itI appears to be a company called iss education, who ppresumably learned something from Jamie Oliver. They even get yeo valley yoghurts.
hoggle there was a note in m's bag asking us to fill in an online questionnaire by 10am tomorrow, so we did that. Multi choice, is your child happy at the school, do they feel safe, is the teaching good, is the leadership good etc. it hasn't had an inspection for a very long times as the last one was outstanding across the board, so they then got a tiny interim one a few yrs after that instead of a full inspection. I will be very surprised, and disappointed if it is anything other than outstanding again, so I hope it goes well! I presumes we won't get the results till next term JT?
I'm going to end up the size of a house - no proper exercise for months and months and months now - sigh!! Sadly I don't seem to modify my eating at all! Really should cut down on so many treats though!! Hubby really needs to loose a bit of weight - he is definitely getting a real belly. Not sure how to tactfully approach it though. He is aware but not yet to the point of doing anything about it, gets very defensive if mentioned (don't we all).
At least its winter so I can hide it all away!
wow lotte -a win too! amazing!!
camlo - the reason i worry a bit about J over-eating is that apparently it can make you do all your growing early, so the child isn't actually particularly fat - just excessively tall for their age. (which is what J is - he's well built, but not porky, but he is sooo much taller than all the other kids). then when he reaches his adult height unnaturally early and stops growing at 13 or 14, he will continue over-eating because that's what he has always done, and will then get fat. and it's hard to do much about it then.

Felt Face Game
By: Not Just a Housewife
The felt face game is a homemade travel activity to make and use with your kids. These easy crafts for kids will keep them occupied for hours.
You can find this project and more kids' crafts in our free eBook, Family Fun Crafts: 16 Craft Ideas for Kids!
- Scissors
- Card stock paper
- Pencil
- Felt
- Draw a basic face shape, eyes, a few different noses, ears, some mouths, eyebrows, accessories like bows and flowers, maybe some glasses. I wait until I have cut out the face shape before I draw the hair. Then they will match up.
- Cut them out and then trace them onto the felt.
- Cut the felt pieces out and you're done!
More tips:
- I have four boys so I didn't focus on the girls as much. You could go all out with fun girly things like earrings, girly glasses, more hair options, etc. I made my first set for a friend 7 years ago and made hair that had two pony tails. The sky is the limit!
- I store mine in a gallon sized ziplock baggie. They are great to stick in your purse and have for church, Doctor's offices, etc.
- I save the pieces I cut out of paper (the "pattern") and the scraps of felt and put them in a folder in my filing cabinet. That way if we loose an ear or mouth I can quickly make a replacement.
- Make them to look like your family members complete with Grandma and Grandpa. I was going to make some Grandpa hair but I didn't have any grey felt.
- Make some hats. A cowboy hat, fireman, etc. Or even an eye patch and bandanna. Then the people can play dress up!

Great idea to use up my extra felt. I am always looking for these unique ideas that may appeal to children shopping for Christmas gifts at a unique bazaar I run for our Church. Children come from all over and now that I have been doing it for over 25 years I am running out of ideas for something different to make. Thank you FavCrafts!!
