Hanger 9 P47 Thunderbolt 60 Size
Well I got one in the UK...... A hanger 9 P47 Thunderbolt £180.00. Very pleased with the quality of the Kit. Retracts are already installed and fit lovely. They look quite strong. Although this Kit looks very simple and easy to build I intend to post pictures and my findings as I build her. My plan is for a 91 four stroke up front. I have 3 SC Four strokes in other planes and although they are quite cheap to buy I find them to be an excellent value for money engine. So unless I have a rush of blood and want to spend that extra £100 on an OS or Saito an SC it will be. Was thinking about an electric conversion but although I have around 28 electrics I cant bring myself to do it, so oil, smoke, vibration and that lovely 4 stroke sound it will be.
Please feel free to chip in with any comments etc as I proceed. Hope it will be fun www.densplanes.co.uk |

Installing the Wing Servo's and Preinstalled Retracts
I chose not always to follow the order of things in the instructions. The instructions say to join the two wing halves first. I would rather install the servo's and Ailerons in the wings before I join then as half a wing is a lot easier to deal with than a whole wing.
Attached are pics of the Servo fixing in the wing and the rather nicely pre installed retracts www.densplanes.co.uk |

Joining Servo Extenders
If you use servo wite extenders Make sure you use servo locks or simply tape them as the attached Photo. Also alway test the servo with the extender in place before you fix it in the plane. This can save a lot of hastle later

I'm not familiar with the SC91, only the Saito 100. I flew mine on an Evolution .61 two-stroker but I also have their P-40 with the Saito in it.
I'd go with the SC91 as it should have enough, heck, more than enough, power to fly this one. Mine came out at just over 8 pounds. Jerry |

Aileron Servo Arm Length
The aileron servo arm needs to be quite a long one. I used the longest one that came with the Servo and it turned out not to be long enough. I couldn't get the specified control throws and even with my rates down at 90 % the clevis hit the underside of the wing. I was lucky because I had two longer arms. They will need to be at least 7/8ths of an inch long. I used the white one shown in the following picture

Wing almost complete
Just the Belly Pan, Retract covers and bolt retainer to go on and that will be the wing finished. I am going to swap out the supplied wing bolta and captive nuts for some British ones. The supplied ones are an American thread and if you loose one it is very difficult to get them in the UK. This will also give me a couple of spares for my Mustang where the supplied ones were used

I don't think that piece will make much of a difference on a .60 sized model (I am an ex-aeronautical engineer). The P-47 is already a nice flying plane. Other .60 sized bubble top P-47's fly fine without it.

Kibati camp is between the government forces postions and the CNDP
rebels, about a kilometer separates them.
Through our implementing partner Solidarites we started the
distribution of plastic sheets, blankets, jerrycans, soap, and cooking
sets to thousands in Kibati; these are essential survival items that
will ward off diseases such as malaria, respiratory infections,
cholera, diarrhea, etc. We aim to serve 3,000 families.
At the same time we had measles vaccinations continue for 13,000
children in Kibati; like cholera, measles risks spreading rapidly
during large population movement and is a major child killer
With our partner Save the Children we working on reuniting children
with their families; 152 children separated from their families
identified in Kibati since Oct 27th. Our partner Mercy corps was
trucking water for tens of thousands of displaced; hundreds of
latrines constructed; and hygiene practices promoted; all these
interventions are critical to containing the spread of cholera and
diarrhea epidemics.

China's ZTE Agribusiness Company Ltd is aiming at a 1 million hectare palm tree plantation in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo) for biofuel production, and the project can offer thousands of jobs for the local people, the company's regional manager Zhang Peng told Xinhua in an interview on Friday. "We will plant palm trees here and convert palm oil into biodiesel. The one-million-hecatre palm plantation will eventually provide thousands of jobs for the local Congolese people," Zhang said. ZTE, an IT company from China, is expanding to the biodiesel sector to diversify its operations. The regional manager said that weather conditions in the DR Congo is very suitable for growing palm trees, which are cultivated for palm oil. "Indonesia and Malaysia are traditionally major producers of palm oil, but after research we found that weather conditions herein the DR Congo is also very suitable for growing palm trees," he said.

Hi all. I wanted to tell you about a wonderful program in Houston TX that is dedicated to mentoring, loving and supporting teen moms. I was a teen mom at 16 yrs old, 14 years ago. I know how hard it is and wish I had a program like this to be there to help me, answer my questions and teach me to be a mom.
If you need someone to talk to and are in the Houston area please give them a call or send them an email. We host 6 baby showers per year for teens and are in the process of starting a teen mops program as well as a weekly bible study. Our goal is to be there as a mentor for teen moms because lots of times they don't have anywhere to turn, not to mention their parents might be a little upset.

Sirius Satellite Radio is a satellite radio (SDARS) service operating in North America, owned by Sirius XM Radio.
Headquartered in New York City, with smaller studios in Los Angeles and Memphis, Sirius was officially launched on July 1, 2002 and currently provides 69 streams (channels) of music and 65 streams of sports, news and entertainment to listeners. Music streams on Sirius carry a wide variety of genres, broadcasting 24 hours daily, commercial-free, and uncensored. A subset of Sirius music channels is included as part of the Dish Network satellite television service. Sirius channels are identified by Arbitron with the label "SR" (e.g. "SR120", "SR9", "SR17").
Gary Patrick Angelo Dell'Abate (born March 14, 1961), also known as Baba Booey, is an American radio producer, known for being the executive producer of The Howard Stern Show. His autobiography They Call Me Baba Booey, was released on November 2, 2010.
The Howard Stern Show is an American radio show hosted by its namesake Howard Stern. It gained wide recognition when it was nationally syndicated on terrestrial radio from 1986 to 2005. The show has been exclusive to Sirius XM Radio, a subscription-based satellite radio service, since 2006. Other predominant staff members include co-host and news anchor Robin Quivers, writer Fred Norris, and producer Gary Dell'Abate.
The show developed in 1979 when Stern landed his first morning shift at WCCC in Hartford, Connecticut, four years into his professional career. He continued to break out as a morning personality at WWWW in Detroit, Michigan in 1980 and was paired with Quivers in 1981 at WWDC in Washington, D.C.. In 1982, Stern's success in Washington led to a spot at WNBC in New York City, where he hosted the city's top afternoon show until his firing in 1985. The show returned to the airwaves soon after on WXRK, where it expanded into national syndcation and became one of the most popular radio shows in the United States. Following the announcement of Stern's move to Sirius, the show left terrestrial radio in December 2005.
Howard Allan Stern (born January 12, 1954) is an American radio personality, television show host, author, actor, and photographer, whose radio show was nationally syndicated from 1986 to 2005. He gained wide recognition in the 1990s and is labeled a "shock jock" for his outspoken and sometimes controversial style. Stern has been exclusive to SiriusXM, a subscription-based satellite radio service, since January 2006. He was a judge on the television show America's Got Talent for its seventh and eighth seasons.
Stern wished to pursue a radio career at the age of five. While at Boston University he worked at the campus station WTBU before a brief stint at WNTN in Newton, Massachusetts. He developed his on-air personality when he landed positions at WRNW in Briarcliff Manor, WCCC in Hartford, Connecticut, and WWWW in Detroit, Michigan. In 1981 he paired with his current newscaster and co-host Robin Quivers at WWDC in Washington, D.C., before working afternoons at WNBC in New York City in 1982 until his sudden firing in 1985. He reemerged on WXRK that year, and became one of the country's most popular radio personalities during his 20-year tenure at the station. He became the most-fined host after the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued fines to station licensees for allegedly indecent material that totaled $2.5 million. Stern won 'sBillboard "Nationally Syndicated Air Personality of the Year" award eight times, and became one of the highest-paid figures in radio after signing a deal with Sirius worth $500 million in 2004. Though critical of the organization, Stern was inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame in 2012.
Jewish culture is the international culture of the Jews. Since the early 19th century the international community of Jewish people has been considered an ethnoreligious rather than solely a religious grouping. Judaism guides its adherents in both practice and belief, so that it has been called not only a religion, but an orthopraxy. Hence no clear distinction exists between the cultural contributions of Jews as opposed to aspects of culture that are specifically Jewish. Furthermore, not all individuals or all cultural phenomena can be classified as either "secular" or "religious", a distinction native to Enlightenment thinking.
Jewish culture in its etymological meaning retains the linkage to the land of origin, the people named for the Kingdom of Judah, study of Jewish texts, practice of community charity, and Jewish history. The term "secular Jewish culture" therefore refers to many aspects, including: Religion and World View, Literature, Media, and Cinema, Art and Architecture, Cuisine and Traditional Dress, attitudes to Gender, Marriage, and Family, Social Customs and Lifestyles, Music and Dance. "Secular Judaism," is a distinct phenomenon related to Jewish secularization - a historical process of divesting all of these elements of culture from their religious beliefs and practices.
Baba Looey is a fictional anthropomorphic Mexican burro that appeared in The Quick Draw McGraw Show. He is deputy and best friend to Sheriff Quick Draw McGraw. He was voiced by Daws Butler.
Baba Looey is Quick Draw McGraw's sidekick. He is brown, has long ears, wears a sombrero, and has a thick Mexican accent. He is often seen hanging around with Quick Draw and helps him catch bad guys.
They Call Me Baba Booey is an American autobiography by radio producer Gary Dell'Abate with Chad Millman. In December 2010, InfoMania interviewed Dell'Abate about the book. Published by Villard, an imprint of Random House, the book was released on November 2, 2010.
On April 28, 2010, the day of the book's announcement, about 20,000 words had been compiled. Dell'Abate reportedly signed a six figure deal with Random House for his memoirs.
Hospitality is the relationship between the guest and the host, or the act or practice of being hospitable. This includes the reception and entertainment of guests, visitors, or strangers.
An executive producer (EP) enables and backs up the making of a commercial entertainment product. He or she is concerned with management accounting and possibly with associated legal issues (like copyrights or royalties). An EP also contributes to the film's budget, and does not work on set.
Executive producers oversee the filmmaking with regard to film finance. They liaise with the line producer and report to production companies and distributors.

ParentEdge is interesting and informative. I can share it with my children and there is nothing in the magazine that I do not like. I especially like the feature on studying abroad, as my 15-year-old daughter and I keep exploring different education options.
Sujatha S. Chandekar
I like the magazine a lot. The Cover Story on disciplining your child was very useful — in knowing children's problems, identifying the issues, tackling the situation. I find Product Review informative and since I give a lot of importance to healthy food, the Nutrition and Wellness article helps me a lot. This magazine offers great value for parents and helps us become more aware of various parenting facts. It would be helpful if the magazine could cover overall development of teenagers, handling them, building their personality.
Sunil K. Jose
I generally like all the articles in the magazine, but my favourites are Cover Story, Nutrition &Wellness and Young Parents' Corner. The magazine is really very educative, informative and helps all the parents in bringing up their children as well-rounded individuals through various articles, expert opinions, etc. You could include more and more articles that help in the cognitive development and psychological aspects of a child's development.
Sucheth K. G
I like the Dealing with Differences articles. They are informative, not only for the family members of kids with these syndromes, but for the public in general. They make us much more aware and sensitive towards such children. The overall design of the magazine is good. I look forward to reading it and gaining insight on so many day to day issues which we face with our young ones. You are doing a great job. Keep it up!
Tushar and Gunjan Bhatia
ParentEdge magazine is good in all aspects right from the cover page design, print, layout, quality of paper and above all the quality of articles. I like the articles on kids with special needs (I have one with high functioning autism); especially the article in the latest issue about how to manage a special needs kid and his/ her normal sibling, how to increase the bond between them etc.

The Right Age to Start School
Dec 16, 2014ParentEdgeComments Off
Gone are the days when parents waited till their child was at least three years old to send her to school, and of course, 'classes' were added on much later. Nowadays toddlers as young as 1.5 years are being sent to playhouse or pre-school to give them an early start and prepare them for a […]
Inculcating Good Study Habits
A pet peeve of many parents is getting their child to study! As parents, we are ready to make compromises on almost everything else, but not on encouraging our children to give their 100% to academics. And yet, this is one area where they dig their heels in and make us push harder and harder. […]

The Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) tide may be turning as far as options players are concerned, as a recent pop higher in the shares has been met with increased bullish speculation. For example, the stock's 10-day call/put volume ratio -- measuring buy-to-open activity on the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX) -- stands at 2.17, its highest point since March 27. During the past two weeks, then, more than two calls have been scooped up for every put.
Today, this trend has continued, as roughly 73,000 calls have changed hands, compared to about 48,000 puts. The most active Facebook Inc strike is the April 27 call, where more than 9,200 contracts have traded. The large majority of these front-month positions traded at the ask price, and implied volatility has ticked up 6.6 percentage points, pointing to buy-to-open activity.
Based upon the volume-weighted average price (VWAP) of $0.37, breakeven at expiration is $27.37 (strike plus VWAP). As the stock is currently trading at $26.63, FB is expected to gain at least 2.8% by Friday's close in order to land these traders in profitable territory. Should FB remain south of the strike price, today's call buyers only stand to lose the premium paid.
Facebook speculators with a slightly longer-term view have zeroed in on the weekly 5/3 28-strike call. Today's volume -- currently amounting to more than 6,300 contracts -- easily tops existing open interest. What's more, more than 80% of the trades have changed hands at the ask price, and implied volatility is almost 5 percentage points higher.
Again, these signs all point to the initiation of new bullish bets, which traded at a VWAP of $0.93. Breakeven at expiration is $28.93, or an 8.6% jump from current levels. This option's delta currently stands at 0.35, meaning the options market gives this call a slightly better than 1-in-3 shot at being in the money once expiration rolls around. It is notable that Facebook is expected to report earnings on May 1, just ahead of expiration for this weekly series.
Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) has gained more than 50% off its all-time low of $17.55, which was reached in early September. This month alone, FB shares have tacked on more than 4% and have muscled back above their 20-day moving average. In the news, the social networking giant has joined forces with the attorneys general of 19 states to educate teens about online privacy.

Hinge crimper?
I have paino hinge that I used to tac weld the ends on to keep the inner rod from vibrating out. I have seen on other rigs and applications where they are like taking a heavy duty prick punch and it makes such a deep hole it hits the rod and keeps it from moving.
I am having trouble finding something that will do this. It's stainless steel. The inner rod is .250" Thanks in advance

Drive the rod out. Cut off a lenght equal to one section of "hinge". Drive back in so its centered than deform both ends of hinge with a small hammer. It'll never come out. Do it all the time on m1 abrams tanks.

Govt to help broke first-car buyers

- Online news:
- Writer: Wichit Chantanusornsiri
The Finance Ministry will be "accommodating" towards first-time car buyers who cannot make payments on cars bought through the government's populist policy, according to deputy minister Tanusak Lek-uthai.
"I will consult with the Comptroller-General's Office to see if we can hold talks with the auto leasing companies about whether some leeway can be given [if buyers cannot meet payments]," he said.
"I don't want to see the government having to sue people. I'm going to set as a policy that we have to help the people."

Rich Kidd - Can I Get A [Bom Bom]
Artist: Rich Kidd
Producer: Rich Kidd
Album: In My Opinion
Avg Rating: 3.8 ( 13 votes )
Unable to Watch this Youtube Video? Click here to play in Soundcloud instead.
Ladies and gentlemen, Can I Get A [Bom Bom]? Fresh off debuting the official visuals for previous single SYKE, T-Dot rapper/producer Rich Kidd requests a little audience participation on the latest release off his forthcoming full-length. Aside from the in-your-face hook, this record has a more laid-back, contemplative vibe than many of the artist's previous features. Flowing over his own pensive keyboard loops and bass-heavy rhythm section, Kidd reflects with satisfaction on this rising stock in the game. On the back, he takes his haters to school—English 101, to be exact: "They tell me 'Rich, you should fit in your nitch.' / I'm like, 'N**ga the term niche, you should learn some English." In My Opinion is still awaiting a solid drop date, but we'll keep you supplied with further details and song releases as they emerge.

Metrical Feet
Metrical Feet Summary
In a poem addressed to his young son, S.T. Coleridge explains each of the most common metrical feet: the trochee, spondee, dactyl, iamb, anapest, amphibrach, and amphimacer. Whew! Best part is: he both defines these terms and demonstrates them within the line. This brief and clever learning experiment takes up the first stanza.
In the second stanza, Coleridge tells his son Derwent everything he needs to become a famous poet: love for nature, a warm heart, and of course meter. Becoming a good poet will help him win his father's and God's love. But wait, Coleridge already loves his son a ton already. Aw, how sweet.

Lila Freeman paints and draws from life. She sets up still lifes using objects which she cannot bear to discard: no-longer-mendable blouses, mildewed sneakers, and out-of-circulation soda cans. Her models are friends, family members, pets, subway riders, nude models and co-workers. She is inspired by her collection of illustrated children's books as well as the art of Édouard Vuillard, Alice Neel, and Lucian Freud. Lila's process is fueled by the music she listens to while she works; her dream painting or drawing would give viewers the same ecstatic jolt they feel when hearing the chorus of a favorite song.

"Weak" D'deridex ultra buff!
I've been noticing lately that when I encounter enemy D'deridex ships, I tend to blow up a lot without explanatin. I trully make sure to stay at a good distance and never in front of them. In the simple mission "Frozen" (the Reman Vault series), I went right behind one of them and opened fire. I had full shields, full hull, resistances active etc. And I was instakilled.
This is the third time it has happened, with different characters (and different D'deridex ships, different missions). So I opened up the combat report, only to see that the supposed "weak" ship fired a "Heavy I" plasma torpedo a few moments AFTER I removed the "High Yield" buff from it. The torpedo ripped right through my shields and took out the ENTIRE hull in one go. Damage dealt in detail with the same torpedo! Keep in mind that shields were @ max when it was fired (from 2km distance). I'm marking the D'deridex's actions and the ultra hits in yellow! I haven't received that amount of damage from the Elachi Mothership or the Emperess Sela's super weapon! Quote:
All this darn Embassy plasma consoles :p
D'D's do this really annoying TB3>>Photonic Shockwave>>HYPT x3 combo (w/ optional sub nuc) that if I'm unluck enough or stupid enough to stay within 5km it was always a 1 shot kill. Wondering if this is what you are running into. |
Preferably attack D'Deridex NPC ships from the flank or rear, and there isn't any issue at all.
Keep rolling around the game and mowing NPC ships all the time, it's easy to get complacent. But get caught in front of a Double-D, you'll quickly have some problems. Polarize Hull and several other skills will get you out of the Tractor Beam. Engineering Team will cure your Viral Matrix ailments. |
Oh god, I forgot about viral matrix. I learned my lesson long ago, only take on from afar.
I miss the yo-yo HY plasma torpedo comedy i got from shooting NPC romies with plasma beams. Romie BOP would fire a destructible torp, and i would watch it bounce again and again off of the the poor thing... Oooooh the HIlarity.
You got hit by at least 3 heavy torpedoes at once. The NPC D'deridex has the ability to spam 4? heavy torpedoes in a couple seconds. The best counter is to stay at least 5km out and use BFaW or CSV to take them down as they are fired. Otherwise, they will hit for a LOT of damage.
Lesson here is simple, NPC D'D are and have been devastating if you get with in 5km range of them (big time no, no). Your friend against D'D is any sort of spam clean up ability, some kind of an AOE effect that last a short duration or an "Oh sh...!" button (Particle Burst Photonic Shockwave). Another very helpful tool with the D'D is Science Team (cleanse Viral Matrix/Photonic Shockwave and Shield Heal to heal with heavy torps). I use to run with Science Team and the D'D was a real no issue, then I got into end game content, focused on TT1+TSS since Sci Team shared a CD TT1 and when the Rom Rep it all of a sudden I noticed that if I got to close to the D'D I was in real trouble.
The D'D is not a push over, sometimes you just have the counters without even realizing it, like Science Team. |
Scatter Volley 3 will take down the facing shield of the Derpaducks, if you time it right, a follow up with a HY3 quantum or Rom Hyper launcher will destroy it.
But yeah, never face it head on. You might be able to kill it, but your ship will almost be as bad off. |

Every Thursday at 10 p.m., a mob of bearded gearheads, inked-up burlesque babes, and shaved-skull Oi! boys descends on the Electric Pickle with dangerously mixed intentions. Guest DJs will drop weird and wild wax (i.e., Johnny Cash, the Troggs, and King Khan), while live acts, such as past performers Diablo Dimes and Celine & the Hellbillies, light up the cabaret stage. And with three-dollar bottles of Red Stripe, theres likely to be dirty dancing followed by messy make-outs in the restrooms. But really, can a party be called a party without spilling beer and swapping spit?

SportOzil brace inspires Real Madrid Mesut Ozil scores twice past Real Betis as the second-placed champions warm-up for their Champions League semi-final. 20 Apr 2013 19:10 GMT | Sport, Football, Germany, Spain Mesut Ozil scored twice, and Karim Benzema netted the other, as the second-placed champions moved on to 71 points with six games left to play [AFP]Real Madrid warmed up for their Champions League semi-final first-leg with Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday with a hard-fought 3-1 victory over Real Betis at the Santiago Bernabeu in Spain's Primera Division. After a slow opening by the hosts they went ahead just before half-time when Mesut Ozil latched onto Karim Benzema's through ball to slot home at the near post. Benzema then made it two in similar fashion as he took advantage of Cristiano Ronaldo's pass to beat Betis keeper Adrian, but Jorge Molina's penalty halved the deficit for the visitors after Ruben Castro had been brought down by Nacho. Castro then came within inches of stealing a draw for Betis as he hit the bar two minutes from time before Ozil settled Madrid's nerves with a third goal in stoppage time. Injury worries However, there was some bad news for Madrid on the injury front as both Marcelo and Luka Modric had to be replaced due to muscular injuries, putting their participation in Germany in midweek in some doubt. And defender Pepe recognised the absence of the Brazilian and Croatian internationals could be a big blow for the nine-time European champions. "It is a shame as they are very important players for us, but we have a very big squad with great players and we always want to win," he told Canal Plus. The Portuguese also accepted that the lack of match practice for some of those on show for Madrid had taken its toll towards the end of the game. "After the goal they pressed a bit more and we had a lot of people that hadn't played for a while so it is normal you notice that at the end. "We now need to think about Borussia. It is very important. We are playing for all the work we have done throughout the year and then we have the derby. We need to be well-prepared for these games." Debut Jose Mourinho had sprung a surprise in his starting line-up by handing a debut to Brazilian midfielder Carlos Henrique Casemiro as he made a raft of changes with Wednesday's match in mind. And after a slow start, the game came to life towards half-time as both sides struck the woodwork. Ronaldo was first to go close as he fired a left-footed shot from 25 yards off the post before Dorlan Pabon volleyed Benat's cut-back off the top of the bar for the visitors. The opening goal did arrive before the break though as a neat one-two between Benzema and Ozil freed the German inside the area to slot home his seventh league goal of the season. Benzema then doubled his side's advantage 12 minutes into the second period at the end of a typically rapid Madrid counter-attack as he raced onto Ronaldo's pass to again beat Adrian at his near post. However, Betis were handed a lifeline 22 minutes from time when Nacho chopped down Castro inside the area and Jorge Molina just sneaked his penalty past Diego Lopez despite the keeper getting a hand to it. The goal infused Betis with belief and Castro very nearly snatched a point two minutes from the end as he latched onto Ricardo Carvalho's weak header back to Lopez only to see his effort come back off the bar and Raul Albiol clear Pabon's follow-up shot off the line. And having survived that scare Madrid went swiftly up the other end and sealed all three points as Ozil prodded home Callejon's driven cross from barely a yard.Source: AFP

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Mother of invention
Local entrepreneur is bound for Beverly Hills with a natural product inspired by her child's needs
When Majda Ficko created her own diaper rash cream in 2004, pitching it to Hollywood moms was the furthest thing from her mind.
But the Winnipeg-area businesswoman will be doing just that this week when she flies to Beverly Hills, Calif., to introduce Baby Butz to A-list celebrities and media preparing to attend the Golden Globe awards.
Ficko has been chosen to have her product featured in the Boom Boom Room, an invitation-only gifting lounge for pregnant celebrities or couples with young children to visit in the days leading up to Sunday's big event.
She's hoping even one A-list mom -- Tori Spelling, Selma Blair, Denise Richards and Jessica Simpson are likely names on this year's guest list -- tweets about Baby Butz, which she says has been nothing short of a miracle cream for her "miracle child."
Ficko is also hoping she doesn't embarrass herself by failing to recognize any famous faces that may show up at her table.
"I'm going to be furiously Googling for a week to figure out who's who," she says, sitting in the kitchen of the East St. Paul home she shares with her husband and three children. "I haven't had much time to watch TV or go to movies."
Necessity may be the mother of invention, but it's nothing compared with the motivational power of a mother's love.
Ficko's son, Demitri, who turns 15 in April, was born with Cornelia de Lange syndrome, a rare developmental disorder that requires him to be tube fed and in diapers 24 hours a day.
Demitri, who was born prematurely at 2.9 pounds, spent the first three years of his life in and out of Children's Hospital, where his diaper rash was successfully treated with a cream formulated by one of the hospital's pharmacists.
When the pharmacy closed, Ficko tried every commercial diaper rash cream being sold, but none of them worked. And researching the ingredients "made me sick to my stomach," she says.
"I was so afraid of putting chemicals on him. He was sick enough as it was."
Although Demitri's cry "was like a little lamb" -- a low-pitched, weak cry is a defining characteristic of Cornelia de Lange infants -- his mother knew he was suffering.
"His butt used to look like raw hamburger," Ficko recalls.
At the time, Ficko, a licensed hairstylist, was running the Hair-Do Zoo, a kids-only hair salon she still owns after 24 years. Up until Demitri's birth, she had been planning to franchise the operation and was also working with a research chemist to develop a line of all-natural hair products for children.
So when the fruitless search for an effective diaper rash cream left her frazzled and at her wit's end, Ficko's husband suggested she contact the now-retired chemist about collaborating on a different project.
After tweaking and testing for two years, they had a winning formula, and as far as Ficko was concerned, she was done messing with diaper creams. Until Demitri's doctor suggested she start selling hers, that is.
"He said to me: 'Why should your son be the only one to benefit?' That just kind of hit me in the heart," recalls Ficko, who also has a 13-year-old daughter and a nine-year-old son.
That was in 2004. She submitted the cream to Health Canada in 2005 for licensing approval as a natural health product, a three-year process in itself.
It finally hit store shelves last February ($9.99 for one ounce) and is now available throughout Manitoba, Alberta and British Columbia, and from two retailers in New York. Pediatricians at Manitoba Clinic are also handing out samples to their patients.
After Baby Butz won seal of approval from Parent Tested, Parent Approved (PTPA), North America's largest volunteer review community for baby and child products, one of Ficko's distributors suggested she contact the organizers of the Boom Boom Room at the Golden Globe Awards. She did and received a prompt reply inviting her on board.
Whether or not the glitterati end up spreading the buzz about Baby Butz, Ficko says she's proud that "one desperate Winnipeg mom" could get a natural, safe and effective product on the market to help children like Demitri.
While Health Canada forbids her from using words like "cures" or "heals" on labels and promotional material, Ficko says Demitri, who, at 14, is the size of a five-year-old, and whom she calls her "forever baby," is proof the cream does just that.
"He has never had diaper rash in the seven years we've been using it," she says.
After the Golden Globes, Ficko plans to take Baby Butz back to Hollywood for the Oscars.
