The Sun Prairie Police Department is hosting an alcohol traffic safety program at the Preforming Arts Center of Sun Prairie High School.
The seminar on Tuesday from 6:30 to 8 p.m. will focus on the health and safety risks of teen drinking and driving.
The program will also have a guest speaker who lost her daughter to a crash involving alcohol.
Reservations are encouraged. Contact Brian Dean at 608-834-6728 to declare the number of people attending.
Survivor: '[I was] clinically dead, and I was that way for 20 minutes'
Sudden cardiac arrest kills 1,000 people a day in the U.S., which is roughly one person every two minutes. Would you know what to do if you saw someone collapse in front of you?
Channel3000.com and WISC-TV are proud to partner with St. Mary's Hospital on Saturday for Hands on Hearts -- a community-wide event offering free compression-only CPR .
COCPR is a hands-only technique to help those in sudden cardiac arrest. The constant compressions are performed 100 times a minute to the center of a patient's chest. The compressions keep oxygen-rich blood flowing to the heart and brain. Mouth-to-mouth rescue breaths are not needed.
When compression-only CPR is used on a victim of cardiac arrest, the chance of surviving increases greatly.
Facility to reopen April 1, director says
The community-run Sun Prairie swimming facility will be closed during spring break, an official said.
Natatorium Director Angie Lucas said the Natatorium will close for eight days for maintenance through April 1, according to an e-mail message. The facility closed last Friday and staff are not available during the hiatus.
It's almost time to spring forward, and Wisconsin officials are using the occasion to remind residents about home safety.
Daylight saving time begins Sunday, when Wisconsinites will set the clocks ahead one hour. Safety officials said the event marks a convenient reminder to do annual checks.
For example:
The Wisconsin Department of Military Affairs has additional safety tips on its website.
Boy, 23 months old, requires around-the-clock care
The family and friends of a Sun Prairie tot with a mysterious digestive disorder will hold a benefit for his medical expenses on Jan. 26.
Kellan Meinke, 23 months, has been suffering from stomach and intestinal tract problems since he was 2 weeks old. His parents Jesse and Vanessa Meinke said they spent most of the summer and fall of 2012 at the Children's Hospital with Kellan, where he has to have his stomach emptied via tube daily and is fed through a tube to his heart.
The cost to care for Kellan is high; dad Jesse receives medical benefits through his service in the Army National Guard, but equipment, medicines, a suction machine, medical crib and other expenses are not covered.
A benefit to cover his medical expenses is set for Jan. 26 at The Round Table in Sun Prairie.
A Sun Prairie boy suffering from a rare and painful skin disease is undergoing breakthrough treatment in Minneapolis, in hopes of finding a new life.
One in half a million are born with epidermolysis bullosa, or EB, but the potential path to freedom from a lifetime of pain may be just across state lines.
"Alright, ready?" asked physical therapist Kate Ward, helping a patient onto a special needs bicycle. "Do you want a little help getting on?"
On a path primed for wheelies, Eleafar Xelhua-Romero's greatest trick may simply be hanging on.
"Just imagine the last time you had a burn," said Dr. Jakub Tolar with the University of Minnesota Amplatz Children's Hospital Department Of Pediatrics. "Just a small burn on your finger. It bothered you for a week, right? These kids live in a phenomenally larger pain all the time."
"Children that are born with this disease, they know on the first day of their lives because their skin peels off," said Tolar.
Whooping cough cases are increasing in Wisconsin, and health officials are urging people to make sure their vaccinations are up to date.
Since the start of the year, state health officials have investigated nearly 3,500 cases. That's about 11 cases for every 100,000 people.
People who don't have school-aged children may not be thinking about immunizations, but doctors said they should be.
"Everybody sees it as I saw it before I had it as an adult -- that it's a childhood disease and it doesn't happen to adults," said Maxine Dwyer, a nurse at St. Mary's Hospital in Madison, who has had two bouts with whooping cough.
"This is the (cough) that sounds like it's coming from your toes. It's deep and it goes on and on and on to the point you feel like you may not be able to catch your next breath," Dwyer said.
According to the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, the highest instances are in Dane County.

Fort Hays State University > About FHSU > Academic Divisions > College of Arts and Sciences > Department of Geosciences > Academic Programs
Geosciences offers baccalaureate degrees and minors in both geology and geography and a master's degree in geosciences, focusing on either geology or geography. Study and training in the geosciences are designed to provide: (1) students with an understanding of the methods of science and the fundamentals of geoscience as they relate to the physical and cultural environments of humans and their dependence upon earth resources; (2) science students with the fundamentals of geology as a foundation for other science studies; (3) an understanding of the relationships between humans and their environment, plus training in sophisticated methods of spatial mapping and analysis, like remote sensing and geographic information systems; (4) training in geology, earth and space sciences, and geography as areas of specialization for elementary and secondary school teachers; (5) professional degrees for employment or future graduate study; and (6) graduate degrees for the professional geologist or geographer.
The Department of Geosciences offers two degrees and two minors: (1) Bachelor of Science in Geology; (2) Bachelor of Science (applied) in Geography with a concentration in Geographic Information Systems; (3) minor in Geology; and (4) minor in Geography. All majors are assigned to faculty advisors in Geosciences.
The Bachelor of Science degree is intended to prepare students for a professional career in geology and/or entrance into graduate school. Students will work with an advisor to consider career choices and available elective options. This program provides the opportunity for majors to complete independent research projects for credit in GSCI 673 Problems in Geology or GSCI 499 Senior Thesis. Students who plan to enter graduate school should take PHYS 212/212L Physics for Scientists and Engineers II/Lab and MATH 234 Analytic Geometry and Calculus I options as well as the statistics course (MATH 250). Download a summary of classes required and track options (in pdf format).
The FHSU Department of Geosciences also has a Geology emphasis in Petroleum Geology. Petroleum Geology will prepare students to find new sources of oil, as well as prepare students to work in the business end of oil production.

Event Name
- OR - Select an option belowThe single person and the takeout-Chinese restaurateur have an interesting relationship. With the barber and the mechanic, there's banter. With bartenders, there's chat. But with the Chinese takeout guy, there's not much to say. You order, "Szechuan chicken, hot-and-sour soup, and an egg roll. For one." He gives you the price. You arrive ten minutes later to pick it up. You each pretend that you don't know each other, but you do. You've seen each other before. Way too many times. This man knows your eating habits. It's a relationship as personal as the one you have with your dry cleaner (the man who knows your truly disgusting secrets). At East China, conveniently located in the Hub Plaza, Fort Lauderdale near the Firm Fitness Center (targeting those who want to eat kind of healthy but are too lazy to cook), the food is fresh and prepared just for your order, perfectly flavored and cooked, piping hot and waiting to be consumed in front of the television. The portions are large enough to lend themselves to tomorrow's lunch. For those too lazy to cook andtoo lazy to pick up dinner, East China delivers within a limited area.

The driver of a late model Chevrolet pick-up truck traveling north, lost control of the vehicle, left the road and struck a ditch, flipping the truck over on its top. Firefighters had to extract the driver from the vehicle. The driver was rushed to Twins Lakes Regional Medical Center by EMS with serious injuries. The wet roadway and speed may have been factors in the accident.

They are just doing what they usually do every year dude. They show the sneak peakks and teaser trailers before the movie since its almost close to its release date. Two or three weeks before they will show the little one minute clips that they put on youtube and they will get the magazines ready. This has nothing to do with the scandal. They do this every year. This is how they promote the movie.

Kathy, on the (slight) offchance that you are actually want a genuine response rather than entertainment, I personally think that the ratios are much better indicators of health than TC levels. It's only when TC starts trending down to 0 that I would be concerned, since cholesterol is vital to your health.

Will Maine's Gov. Flintstone be re-elected?
Another example, of which Granite Staters should take note, is the way Maine elects its governors.
While Granite Staters may look yearningly at the many choices Maine voters have when they go to the polls, the practical result can be the election of a "Gov. Flintstone" — someone loved by few and hated by many (if we are to believe what we see on the editorial pages of many Maine newspapers).

Compare VersionsHow do I escape single quotes in SQL queries?
updated May 30, 2012 2:48 am | 587,112 views
Revision as of 13:58, 26 February 2008QuestionI am trying to run a SQL Select statement which looks like this:
But, I am getting a End of statement expected error. The value passed in contains a single quote. Is it a problem? DiagnosisWhen the SQL statement is assembled via string concatenation, the appearance of a single quote inside the QueryString value will break the statement. For example, when built, the statement will look like this:
This is broken as the value closing delimiter appears twice; that is, there are an odd number of single quotemarks. SolutionBuilding an SQL statement by concatenating strings is not advisable. It is:
The dangers of SQL injection are humorously illustrated by Randall Munroe. A good, easy, scalable and safe approach is to use Prepared Statements (or the equivalent if not programming in Java). For example: PreparedStatement ps = con.prepareStatement ("SELECT * FROM TableName WHERE FieldName = ? "); ps.setString(1,Request.QueryString("ProNumber")); Using bind variables is preferred because of scalability and built-in checks for sterile inputs. An alternative is do-it-yourself "sanitization of inputs" by escaping single quotes. Caution: default escape characters vary by DBMS and can be overridden. For most DBMS, doubling the single-quote is the default means of escaping a single-quote; but there are exceptions. For example, mySQL uses a backslash as the escape character.
This fix will produce the following statement:
Which is syntactically correct, and not subject to SQL injection since all single quotes are escaped. In other words, if a user input this:
The resulting SQL ends up being this harmless statement, and security problems are avoided, although scalability issues remain:

seem much more reasoned and studied than do the raves.
I agree with one purchaser - try to see this book before buying.
What a grand assemblage of pure louts and ruffians you are....constantly arguing over the numbers of everything...as if you were really qualified to discuss more that the number of feet a pig possesses!
Even the most unwashed, unlettered and unrepentant among you must be well enough educated to realise the writer was simply trying to explain the costs involved in developing a lifetime profession.
Grow up...or go back to arguing about the number of angels that can dance on the head of pin and leave photograpghy to the practitioners
I read the judgement and concluded, based soley on the evidence presented in that judgement, that the judge is a doddering old man that has never held a camera more advanced than an auto point-shoot throwaway.
What of all the photographers that intentionally tried to find Ansel's tripod marks? Shall we confiscate their cameras, take away their birthdays or simply jail them?
There are so many postcards available in London right now of "similiar" shots of these three iconic elements of London - Parliament, double-decker and misty-moors - that I can only imagine the judge must be one of those that have plagued British photographers for the last decade concerning the "link" between terrorits and photography....poor old man...he should just go home and tend his roses.
I too appreciate the style of your educational article. I have been using CS5 and LR3 and was hoping to add the NIK Collection but I understand that all of the disc versions require extensive "download and upgrade" ....which is a problem on my old dial-up modenm.
Any clarification regarding "currency" of the disc-based Collection directly from NIK would be appreciated.
Also they say they "can't" use the Post Office....everybody can use the Post office except folks on the Homeland Security Watchlist....?

Plans to support pkgng?
I ran 'pkg2ng' on my system; worked, but then System Manager shows no packages installed. I'm using ZFS and learning beadm, so I just rolled back to the snapshot I took before doing this.
Will pkgng be supported by PC-BSD, or will I have to hack System Manager and replace all 'pkg_install' w/ 'pkg install' and such myself? |
Plans to support pkgng?
I've been working on moving us to full pkgng support for the past 2
months now and are getting close to having something workable for testing. It should be fully supported by the next update to PC-BSD in a few months, if you can wait that long :) |
Cool. By then I'll probably just be figuring out how to get PC-BSD installed the way I want, so yeah I can wait. By that I mean, I want to install to two ZFS pools (done), and have the result remain compatible with beadm (not done, I don't get why tank0/ROOT/default, /usr, and /var mount to /tmp not /).
Right now pkgng doesn't even work on FreeBSD. Well, the software works fine, but there arent' any binary packages in the repository so having pkgng doesn't do the user any good.
For FreeBSD you can consider setting up your own pkgng repo with ports-mgmt/poudriere. It's really not that hard and works quite well. Currently I have 2 servers (and 20 jails) running with pkgng.

QB intrigue starts with Skins
Should Washington target Manning or Griffin III? Seattle at critical juncture
The 2012 scouting combine didn't resolve any of the big questions for teams in need of quarterbacks. If anything, it confused things.
Entering the combine, Andrew Luck remained destined to go to the Indianapolis Colts at No. 1 and Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III was set as the second quarterback taken, most likely at No. 2 after a trade. But Griffin was so impressive in interviews and as an athlete that the price of trading up for him will be exceedingly high.
Do you have a query for John Clayton?
Click here to send a note to his mailbag.
The price for Griffin, in terms of draft choice compensation, will be so high that only the Cleveland Browns, who draft fourth, and the Redskins, who draft sixth, have a chance to acquire him. The Dolphins, who draft eighth, and the Seahawks, who draft 12th, have no chance of trading up. They wouldn't have enough draft choices to fit the needs of the Rams, who can broker a Griffin trade from the second pick.
The Redskins face the most interesting questions. Do they trade for Griffin or sign Peyton Manning if he's cut by the Colts? Griffin ran the second-fastest 40-yard dash time (4.41) in combine history for a quarterback. He's got Steve Young-type ability.
A franchise like the Redskins has been waiting for a quarterback to build around and Griffin could resolve its needs for the next decade. But Manning could make the team better in the short term faster if he signs with the Redskins.
The Browns aren't desperate for a quarterback, but they'd be crazy not to trade up for Griffin. If they can't get him, they can move forward with Colt McCoy, but settling for McCoy could leave them fourth in a division that features Joe Flacco, Ben Roethlisberger and Andy Dalton.
The Dolphins will either end up with Manning -- if he's cut -- or Matt Flynn, the Packers' backup who won't be franchised. That leaves the Seattle Seahawks in a precarious position.
If the Seahawks wish to advance above the 7-9 level, they need an upgrade at quarterback. The combine didn't answer many questions for them. Brandon Weeden didn't light it up throwing at the combine and may have fallen behind Kirk Cousins of Michigan State. Cousins had the best day throwing of all the quarterbacks Sunday.
Foot injuries prevented Ryan Tannehill of Texas A&M and Brock Osweiler of Arizona State from throwing and they may be the next best options for the Seahawks, more likely in the second round. Of course, they could still look at Flynn, whom general manager John Schneider was involved in drafting when he was with the Packers.
The NFL remains a quarterback-driven league, so the decisions made by these four franchises will determine the success or failure of their futures.
From the inbox
Q: I keep hearing about this whole Peyton Manning-to-Miami thing and all the other possible suitors for Peyton. But there's one factor I think people are missing -- Reggie Wayne. I think he could be a big factor regarding where Manning ends up.
John Paul in Bethlehem, Pa.
A: I don't think people are forgetting it. Wayne could follow Manning to Miami or Washington. He would fit on both teams. The Colts are trying to re-sign Pierre Garcon. If they have enough money left, Wayne would be an option, but by that time he will be somewhere else. The first thing is getting Manning healthy. The Dolphins are expected to be big players for Manning if he's a free agent. Wayne would fit well along the outside. It also doesn't hurt that Wayne trains in Miami and Manning has a home there.
Short takes
After watching the entire Patriots season, Steve in Michigan came to the opinion that the Pats have too many "between the number" receivers. He suggests letting Wes Welker go. Can't do that. But he suggests going for an outside threat such as Pierre Garcon or Brandon Lloyd. Can do that. I definitely think they will go after Lloyd. The Pats do need a better threat. Vikings fan Dave in Waverly, N.Y., thinks the Vikings should go for Robert Griffin III and not stay with Christian Ponder. The Vikings believe in Ponder, so trading up for Griffin isn't an option. If Griffin falls to them, they should take him. Sergio in Ontario, Calif., believes defenses win championships. I believe defenses only get you to championship games, and quarterbacks win Super Bowls. Darik in Phoenix loved what wide receiver Laurent Robinson did for the Dallas Cowboys' offense and hopes the Cowboys keep him. Don't worry. He's not a No. 1 receiver, so the Cowboys have a great chance of keeping him. Cliff in Austin, Texas, wonders whether Jake Locker has the potential to lead the Titans deep into the playoffs. He has the potential to do that, but it would be great if he could spend another year learning behind Matt Hasselbeck. Willis from Australia suggests the 49ers go after Mario Williams. Don't the 49ers already have the best front seven in football? No need to overdo it. Ryan in Newton, N.C., the Panthers will bring back LB Thomas Davis with a reworked contract. Tim in Michigan wants his Detroit Lions to look at veteran running back Clinton Portis if Jahvid Best can't come back from his concussion problems. They could have signed Portis last season and didn't. I don't think he will be an option for them this year.
Q: It seemed like the officials throughout the playoffs were keeping their flags in their pockets, not making petty calls and letting the players play. It was much more enjoyable that way. Do you think there were instructions from the League? In any case, can anything be done to bring that attitude to the regular season consistently?
Laurence in Oxford, England
A: The officials did let the players play in the playoffs. It might not have been a mandate from the league, but I'm sure it was a suggestion. Fans want to see football players, not officials march off penalties. There was a dramatic drop-off in holding penalties, which often holds down scoring. The league is all about trying to promote more scoring. For the past couple of regular seasons, the league has been trying to limit the number of flags. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Q: In past five years, the quarterbacks who have played in a Super Bowl are: Eli Manning (2), Tom Brady (2), Ben Roethlisberger (2), Aaron Rodgers, Drew Brees, Kurt Warner and Peyton Manning. Obviously, there are guys like Joe Flacco and Alex Smith who came very close to making a Super Bowl appearance. Nonetheless, it's no secret that in order to contend for a Super Bowl, you simply have to have an elite quarterback. Why have teams like Seattle, Cleveland and Washington pushed aside their glaring quarterback needs and focused on other positions?
Avi in Bellevue, Wash.
A: Avi, you get it. The old theory of playing great defense and running the ball only gets you to a certain point. Sure, a team with an average quarterback may slip into some Super Bowls, but those are in years in which there is a shortage of great quarterbacks. This is a mini-golden age for quarterbacks. You have to have a great one to compete in the biggest games. The problem is trying to find them. It usually takes a lot of losses to be in position to draft a great one. Or you have to gamble in a trade or a signing to hope to find one. It's a quarterback-driven league. You figured that out pretty easily.
Q: Here's something none of the draft analysts seem to be talking about -- the rookie wage scale. How will that affect the draft? Will more teams draft based on need because they won't be stuck giving outlandish contracts to first-round picks?
Colin in San Diego
A: Sure, teams will be more willing to trade up and fill needs, but they also will want to keep as many draft choices as possible because they are less expensive. With a salary cap, teams want to balance the price of veterans versus the price of rookies. What you will see is a less complicated draft. If a team wants to fill a need, it can. If it wants to take the best player available, it can. Before, with the high price of draft choices, teams wouldn't trade high into the draft.
Q: Do you think the Eagles may take a quarterback later in the draft? I'm very wary of Michael Vick's consistency, especially with regard to games played; he takes a lot of hits and will be 32 at the start of next season. I'm unsure about Mike Kafka. It may be time to start grooming a future QB, or at least one to step in when Vick is hurt.
Pat in Hazleton, Pa.
A: The Eagles signed Trent Edwards, so they have an experienced backup to replace Vince Young, who probably won't be back. Kafka is being groomed as the main backup. Because they signed Vick to a contract extension, they aren't thinking about the long-term replacement for Vick. They just went through that process in grooming Vick to replace Donovan McNabb. With three quarterbacks under contract, I bet they stay away from drafting a quarterback in the later rounds.
Q: I keep hearing about how the Bears need a wide receiver, but being a lifelong Bears fan I know better than to get overly excited. What do you really think the Bears will do? If they do sign a big-name wideout, who will it be?
A: That's impossible to say because we don't know who will be available because of the franchise tags and re-signings. What is for certain is that the Bears have to get someone. Johnny Knox is coming off neck fusion surgery. Roy Williams is a free agent, but if he's brought back, he will be only a role player. They need a starter. They either have to pay for one or draft one.
Q: The Texans have a choice to make between RB Arian Foster and Mario Williams. Let's say they re-sign Foster and let Williams walk (like I think they will); what are the chances the Eagles pick Williams up?
Broc in Ogden, Utah
A: The Eagles really don't need him. They have Trent Cole and Jason Babin at defensive ends. Plus, the Eagles are one of the better pass-rushing teams in the NFL. The Texans need to do something with Foster, center Chris Myers and others. They can't afford to give Williams a $22 million cap number. They can't afford to make him the highest-paid defensive player in NFL history. Williams will end up on a 4-3 team. I think it could be Seattle.
Q: The Giants proved shutdown corners are not needed with an effective pass rush. Shouldn't the Cowboys draft speedy-type players like Courtney Upshaw or Zach Brown instead of corners?
A: Interesting. They need the corner more than the pass-rusher, but this is a deep draft for corners. They could get one in the second or third round. The pass-rushers may be gone by then. They do need to re-sign Anthony Spencer. But the Giants proved you can't have enough good pass-rushers. One thing that is vital is having good man-to-man-coverage guys. The Giants have the ability to play man with their corners even though they aren't shutdown guys. The Cowboys need to get more out of their pass rush and need to add one corner to the mix.

Back in February, Gizmag scoured the many halls of the ISPO Munich 2013 sports show for the latest and greatest in action, outdoor and snow sports gear. Recently we did the same at one of ISPO's American counterparts: Outdoor Retailer Summer Market. Along the way we found numerous interesting, innovative and downright odd vehicles, vessels and machines designed for those specialist, sporty uses where standard equipment just doesn't cut it. With the summer winding down toward cooler weather (or vice versa for our southern readers), we thought it the perfect time to share this mix of snow, street, air and water gear. Read More
When you think of the Xbox, you probably picture things like Halo, Fable, and Call of Duty. But with the upcoming Xbox One, Microsoft is trying to expand beyond just gaming, and become your go-to living room companion. And what's a bigger mainstay of weekend couch-surfing than sports? Gizmag recently sat down with Microsoft to chat about some deals the company inked to help bring your home sports entertainment into the 21st century. Read More
There's no shortage of sports performance trackers, but most of them are worn on the body. Watches and glasses simply aren't comfortable for every sport, or every athlete. The Trace action sports activity monitor being developed by California's ActiveReplay pulls the hardware off the body and puts it somewhere more comfortable – on the board. It also adds some tracking functions geared specifically for board sports. Read More
Panasonic develops ultra-wide 64:9 video system
You think that the regular HD video aspect ratio of 16:9 is good enough? Ha! Panasonic will go you one better – in fact, it'll go four times better. The electronics manufacturer has developed a 64:9 Ultra-Wide Camera System. With its 160-degree horizontal field of view, it can capture an entire sports field in one 720p image, in which all of players are still clearly visible. Read More
It may be a relatively new sport, but there's been surprisingly little technological innovation in the world of paintball since it was created. Aside from a few modest enhancements, the basic gas-powered guns (also called markers) have remained about the same, but an upcoming product could change how the game is played entirely. The Strikeloader is a battery-operated backpack that feeds paintballs directly into a gun, eliminating the need for a regular loader while holding six times as much ammo. Read More
Inspired by Nike's "Nature Amplified" design ethos, the Free Hyperfeel shoes are the company's latest sports footwear designed to mimic the working of the human foot. By using pressure-mapping technology and high-speed film to analyze the foot in motion, the designers say they were able to provide padding and protection only where it is needed. The result is a shoe made up of only seven components, which contrasts with the 57 components that go into a typical Air Pegasus running shoe. Read More

Along with its nihilistic cyberpunk style, the film The Matrix is famous for popularizing what's known as "bullet time" photography.

Now, that same technology may be coming to live televised sporting events. Read More
Most headphones are concerned with blocking ambient noise to better accentuate the music being played. With its new Momentum, X-1 Audio takes the opposite approach, opening the ear up to ambient noise while still aiming to maintain crisp, clear audio.

Reality strikes, and farewell
Filed under: Babies, Toddlers Preschoolers
I believe parenthood has brought on many positive changes for me, but I'll be the first to admit I've grown downright pedantic when it comes to movie or television scenes depicting pregnancy, childbirth, or the post-partum stage. "Oh, COME ON!" I'll snap, flinging a hand out in disgust at the actress whose strap-on belly, supposedly containing twins, barely pushes out the confines of her hospital gown, as she heaves a delicate sigh meant to convey the depths of her labor pains (Natalie Portman I am looking at YOU). "WHY ISN'T SHE THE SIZE OF A NARWHALE AND POOPING ON THE TABLE."
Newborn babies are always pudgy and adorable, probably because they're actually three months old -- they never look like underdone, angry little pot roasts. Post-partum parents are delirious with joy, sitting in soft-focus pools of light, and no one is furiously scratching their C-section scar or rooting around under the sink for yet another Super-Plus-Flow-with-Wings! maxi pad.
Well, I suppose I can understand why these vignettes might not make for a pleasant viewing experience, but I have to say, I LOVED last season's Friday Night Lights for the scene showing the coach in a grocery store a short time after their baby was born. Did you see that, where he's completely disheveled, wearing stained sweatpants, with purple half-circles under his eyes and a vacant, drooly expression? Now that's REALITY.
Oh, I guess I just like it when parenthood is shown for what it is: a beautiful, blissful endurance trial. It's like an endless, brutal trek up the slopes of a sky-sweeping mountain, where every day you wheeze and gasp and think, holy crap this is so much harder than I thought it was going to be, and yet you are constantly treated to the most glorious landscape. Every step seems so critical, and there are so many paths to choose from. It's indescribable. It's terrifying. Like gazing upon the face of God. A god with many, many bodily fluids.
I'm terrible at goodbyes (and segues!) so I will quickly close by saying that this will be my last post with ParentDish, and I want to thank you for reading. It has come to mean a lot to me to be able to talk about my motherhood experiences -- the good, the bad, and the yeeesh -- and I am so grateful for having had this outlet. Take care of yourselves, you hear?

slowburn said...Darn! I just discovered you! And I'm glad I wasn't actively drinking the hot liquid when I got to "they never look like underdone, angry little pot roasts."
Reminded me of the time my husband looked over at another table, saw a kid howling and quipped, "Damn, that kid looks so raw it's like he's still on the inside!"
I was nursing and terrified I'd bobble the kid off the boob - and flash the world - in laughter.
Michele said...I'm sorry to see you leave, but happy for you that you will no longer have such trolls attempting to make you feel so shitty for your choices. ClubMom was sooooo much better!
Cheli said...Oh no Linda you can't leave! You and your posts are what bring me back here every day to keep reading! Where are you going? Can I come? Our boys are so close in age and reading your posts gives me hope that I'm not going insane.

pocklock said...I've always enjoyed your posts here. In fact, like most others, you were the reason I started reading ParentDish. I think they'll see a pretty steep decline in traffic.
Trolls suck.
Jenny said...I will miss reading you. I've never commented before, but I created a username just to comment on this post. Your baby and mine were born days apart. I looked forward to your posts because you always said EXACTLY what I was feeling. Good luck and best wishes.
mj12 said...I have to say it too.....NOOOOO......You make me bust a gut all the time while making me feel completely normal at the same time!
I would love to know where you'll be blogging next as well so I can continue to get my chuckles.
Thanks for all the smiles!

The beloved guru of human behavior in public space will speak to an expected 2,000 attendees at CNU 23
DALLAS/FT WORTH, TX (October 23, 2014) – Architect and author Jan Gehl will bring ideas from his latest work to the 23rd Annual Congress for the New Urbanism in Dallas and Fort Worth, Texas April 29–May 2, 2014. Gehl has been highly regarded for years for re-‐orienting city design towards the pedestrian and cyclist. But he has enjoyed a new burst of acclaim with the release of the film The Human Scale, which focuses on his life and work.
Gehl's recent work uses public life surveys to better inform people-‐focused design. Gehl maintains that to create thriving, prosperous places, we must design at the human scale and shape policy to invite and reward public life.
"I'm thrilled that Mr. Gehl can join us in Dallas and Fort Worth." said Lynn Richards, President and CEO of CNU. "I've been a fan of his ever since reading Life Between Buildings. CNU has always been about encouraging design at the human scale. The theme for this 23rd Congress is 'Meeting the Demand for Walkable Places.' So having Jan Gehl with us in Texas couldn't be more appropriate."
Mr. Gehl's presentation will fit the tone of the four days of high-‐level training, discussion and application of placemaking strategies in real places in Dallas and Fort Worth. "The demand for compact, walkable neighborhoods is rising," said Ms. Richards. "We'll be using Congress sessions and demonstration projects to put the spotlight on success stories in the region and the nation and to explore ways to ramp up our mission to help communities build places people love."
Speakers and sessions will be announced as they are confirmed. Visit cnu23.org and signup for the mailing list to stay updated on the latest news about the Congress.

Letters and comments for September 23, 2011
Pack's numbers decline
In the recent article on the Association of Oregon Counties District 1 fall meeting, Oregon Cattlemen's Association member Rod Childers numbers the Imnaha wolf pack at 12. The ODFW, however, counts just two adults (both collared), one yearling and one pup. I mention this not to be argumentative, but because it's important to know that the pack has naturally decreased by more than two-thirds since last year. The ODFW killed three Imnaha pack wolves this year, and four collared wolves have dispersed, two out of state. The remaining wolves are very closely monitored by GPS collars, personal observation and trailcams. In the past months only five have been observed, and one of those has moved to Baker County. It is a reasonable guess that the remaining six have also dispersed. The Oregon Wolf Plan takes into consideration the dynamics of wolf behavior, something livestock operators seldom consider in their campaign to use lethal controls as the primary tool to limit wolf/ livestock conflict. In this case, with a minimum of lethal control, a pack has gone from 16 to four in less than a year. Even if there are one or two more pups than have been confirmed, the pack now falls within the normal wolf pack average of 6-8. Last year Wallowa County had eight confirmed and one probable wolf depredations, this year five confirmed and two probable. Last year maybe a mile of fladry was deployed; this year 9-10 miles, and not a single loss occurred within fladry-protected areas. All the fladry, range riders, RAG boxes, hazers and ODFW technicians have been paid for by government or conservationists. A funded compensation plan is now law. All this shows how well Oregon wolf management can work. For those interested, read the wolf depredation reports at the ODFW website.

After completing training, Mutta is offered a spot on the backup crew for an upcoming ISS mission. This is a golden opportunity for Mutta to make it to space quickly. But he must consider what he truly wants to do.
-via Crunchyroll.com
Since astronauts on the backup crew must go through the same training as those on the main crew if they ever need to fill in, they are just as important. So if Mutta accepts the position on the backup crew, Mutta would be only a few steps away from going to the Moon and also keeping his promise with Sharon to be the first astronaut to start building the "Sharon Lunar Telescope". However to Mutta's disappointment, the upcoming mission is to the ISS and has nothing to do with the Moon.
Throughout Mutta's life, he had always seen the ISS as an old piece of metal that was still working hard. Back in 2012, NASA had shifted their focus away from the ISS and instead focused on Moonbase and Mars exploration. Serika, fellow Japanese astronaut, had expressed great interest in working aboard the ISS to develop medicines and cures for rare diseases like ALS that affected her father and Sharon. Medicine that would require experimentation in a zero gravity environment. Mutta learns that Miyata Atsushi, another Japanese astronaut, is currently aboard the ISS but had to wait almost 5 years before his first assignment. Kisaka Sanae was his backup and is currently on the main crew to board the ISS next year. So Mutta would be acting as Kisaka's backup. NASA Director Butler tells Mutta that he is lucky, most rookies don't get recommended so quickly. Mutta, a little overwhelmed by the opportunity, asks for some time to think about it.
During their group jog that morning, Kenji tells Mutta that he and Nitta have been working hard with Lunar training, hoping for an opening on an upcoming Lunar mission. American astronauts Shane and Ben (who had been ASCANs with them) have already been assigned to a backup crew for a Lunar mission. Talking over things, Mutta and Kenji both realize that training for the ISS is completely different than training for a Lunar mission. So, if Mutta accepts the backup position for an ISS mission, it would take him longer to go to the Moon, which is what Mutta wants ultimately. Roughly speaking if Mutta accepts this position on the ISS backup crew, he would then have to go on a mission to the ISS, return to Earth, do Lunar mission training, then be assigned to a Lunar mission, which could take at least 8 years.
Mutta proceeds to decline the offer. Mutta suggests that Serika replace him on the backup crew, explaining her motivations to board the ISS. Director Butler says he will consider it. Vincent Bold also happens to be in the office when Mutta gives Butler his decision. Afterward Mutta is a little worried if he made the right decision, but remembers that Sharon had always taught him that when it comes to making tough decisions "go with what is the most fun". Later, Serika is called to Director Butler's office and is given the opportunity to be on the backup crew, which she gladly accepts. Everyone is congratulating her and Serika is very happy.
Just then Mutta gets a message from Vincent asking him to meet him in building 9N. As Mutta meets and follows Vincent, Vincent asks why Mutta did not accept the position. Vincent has yet to be assigned on a mission to space, explaining that administration is very strict on how many and who gets to undergo Lunar mission training. 9N is where new buggies and rovers are developed for use on the Moon. Mutta meets with the other engineers there and learns his new job. From that day forward he will be working on developing and improving the buggies. Mutta is told to continue daily basic training and work here until "further orders".
Mutta meets the small engineer team and finds out more about what they do and the problem they have been working on. Mutta eventually finds a copy of the buggy that Hibito and Damien had accidentally driven off a cliff on the Moon. When the buggy was retrieved out of the ravine, it sustained damage. This was when the engineer team was ordered to either develop a buggy that would not get damaged from falling, or would not fall.
Mutta learns that the texture of Lunar dust is like new snow, so the tires and brakes have to take that into account. These are the areas that they have been focusing on. Ironically, although Mutta had been fired from his engineering position at an automobile company for headbutting his boss, Mutta now finds himself again working on automobiles after becoming an astronaut. Interestingly, NASA has never hired people from automobile companies because their engineering team does not have a large budget. All the buggies have been developed in-house. With little progress being made on solving their current problem, the engineers are about ready to give up. Mutta isn't ready to give up just yet. Vincent whispered to him before leaving that if he can produce results here, Mutta will undoubtedly get a spot on a backup crew for a Lunar mission. But how can Mutta and the other engineers design a buggy that can't fall?

I am just getting into reloading and I am looking at kits from midwayusa.com to get me started. I am torn between the rcbs rock chucker supreme kit and the hornady lock n load kit. Both are the same price and come with virtually the same equipment. I will be loading mostly handgun rounds 380, 38s&w, 9mm, 40s&w and 45 acp along with 223. I am looking for your opinions of which kit you would prefer, or If you would get a different setup please feel free to share

I started out with the RCBS long ago and still use it today but I think the Hornady is just as good. I would either flip a coin or go off color!!!
I have a RC supreme that's about 9 yrs old and my neighbor just started loading and bought a hornady kit. Both presses are the same quality. Their powder measures, scales and trimmers are all good too. Just pick your favorite color and be happy. If you get the rcbs press but like the hornady lnl bushings, hornady makes a conversion kit. I have it in my press and really like it. Makes it easier to swap dies between the lnlap and single stage for small batches.
I'm a little partial toward the RCBS Rockchucker press, but that's me. Hornady also makes good stuff. ct
My bench looks like somebody spilled skittles on it. But, I am partial to Hornady. I guess mainly because I live 90 miles from the plant and can stop in for parts whenever I get to town trucking. I won't criticize somebody's choice of equip because every company has good stuff. But there are a few things I definately would not own.
I'm new to reloading as well. Got my Rock Chucker kit a few months ago and couldn't be happier. I've only loaded a few hundred rounds, but I'm very pleased with the quality of the RCBS kit. Plus they have a great rebate option right now. If you spend over $300 on RCBS equipment, you can send in for 500 free common caliber speer bullets of your choosing. Well worth it for me.
Rcbs is the way to go. The rockchucker is an amazing single stage. Lymans it not bad at all i have there turret press to do all my lever ammo.
you pew pew pew lately bro!?
Get whichever is on sale! Seriously, as the others have said they are both top end. I've used RCBS products for over 40 years so I would probably buy the RC for nostalgia.
