Gimme gimme gimme gimme gimme. URL? The controls infuriate me.
I just bought System Shock and System Shock 2 off eBay (cost me a packet for mint copies), and I've been dicking about with Redguard/Arena. Was going to play the ES games first, but now I just wanna shoot people to crap techno.
Perhaps Antiques Code Show should be renamed God Bless DOSbox
Doesn't stop them trying! I wonder if they'll call it "magical" too?
Then lets build a ship that can last that long and fucking go!
Jesus Christ...
"The committee wants a single place where punters can get basic security advice, stripped of confusing technical jargon"
That'll be shit advice, then.
The way to stop people being afraid of the net, and of the jargon, is to teach them how it actually works, not baby-talk them around what is increasingly required knowledge. IT is used as much as any of the core literacies in school these days, possibly more so, as it's used to access and enable other disciplines, rather than standing on its own, so let's make IT/computing in schools a mandatory subject like maths, and teach them how this stuff actually works.
You can tell people that "bad e-mails might come to your inbox", but if they understand, even at an overview level, just how shit e-mail is, then they'll show it the appropriate amount of trust.
"Maybe he's just like all of the professional politicians (AKA massive liars)"
Yep, that's pretty much it. How many of his promises did he keep again? Something about a military base, and the Defense Authorization Bill...?
French Connection United Kingdom.
Sure, it might be a lame ploy to sell t-shirts, but it's a valid acronym.
"The proposals were drafted by the British Recorded Music Industry (BPI), Motion Pictures Association (MPA), Producers Alliance for Cinema and Television (PACT), The Premier League and the Publishers Association..."
....and not a single search expert, or anyone who understands how the Internet works.
Collectible shite you buy and rub against your console to unlock game content that should have been included with the asking price?
Yep, sounds like a Nintendo gimmick. Well, if Skylanders, Eye of Judgement and Kinectimals hadn't tried this already. Still, the Zelda fanboys are terrifying. Make a collectible ocarina that unlocks different stuff according to which song you play. They'll stab each other with replica fairy swords to get one.
I just cancelled my LoveFilm account last night. Had issues with discs that had obviously been buffed to look new, but didn't work properly, and I personally thought the streaming service's selection was crap. I mean look at your own screenshots - Highlander: The Source, for fuck's sake? They don't even have the one good movie from that series!
Might trial Netflix on my PS3, but I'm not holding out hope. Maybe in a few years when the libraries have increased in size somewhat. I couldn't give two shits about the latest Michael Bay monstrosity - I want to watch *good* movies (which probably means movies from before 2000).
Hold on a second there, Sonny Jim. May I bring to your attention the oft-maligned/forgotten Elder Scrolls: Redguard, which had a simple but effective parry, thrust, lunge system.
Seriously, I never got all the hating on Redguard. Sure, it's pretty different to the others, but if I wanted samey I'd play triple-A FPS games.
......."Ring of Ice and Fire"?
Does it sing?
For the "world's highest scoring player", that's a bit crap really.
I met my neighbours, then played Super Stardust with them
This all sounds a bit rough for an LTS release...
Not saying that they're exempt, just that Bohemia likely don't care. And there are a *lot* more FPS gamers than might be readily apparent. It only takes a game to be mentioned to remind someone of it, and once the name's in your head, you're likely to recognise it on a shop shelf, etc, etc, etc. It might sound daft, but that's marketing for you.
Who, Bohemia? They're probably overjoyed at the publicity. As great and maddeningly lethal as their Arma (originally Operation Flashpoint) games are, they're not particularly mainstream as FPS games go.
"Candles = Good (Candles should never be lit)"
Captain, I appear to have nasally ejected a carbonated beverage. Should I scan it for life forms?
I've said it before, and I'll say it as many times as it takes for idiots to understand it: fun things do not stop being fun because you get older, and the definition of "fun" is personal. Anyone who subscribes to the notion that they may no longer do something because they have passed some magical imaginary number boundary has voluntarily made themselves more boring.
Let the nerd have his fun. That goes for his wife, too. Hell, in the current housing market, something unique like that would probably make selling easier!
Cue an internet whip-round to buy out his wife's half of the property.
Is going on QOTW and you know it! Such an explosion over the use of EST, you filthy Americanised scumbags, you!
You're so right. Aspiring to better is pointless. We shouldn't be working to improve the species. Hell, the neatest things we've got are digital watches. Maybe coming down from the trees was a bad idea.
For you.
Normally I will throw knives at people who dismiss a game on graphical quality, but that looks a bit lacklustre. And my objections would not be on graphics alone - the platforming looks a bit naff too.
Besides, Dr Who hasn't been good in this millennium. Why start now?
You know guys, I'm not sure Jubs was being entirely serious...
I don't know what the manual is, but the Karma Sutra might be considered an advanced supplement.
The first one becomes V'Ger, because they can't read the "oya" on the nameplate.
I always thought OpFor was too easy, and the ending was naff, but it was a fun ride.
In fairness, Source/HL2 also got many engine patches, including HDR, and continues to. There was also Lost Coast, and the fact that Source could run on surprisingly crap machines.
That, and Far Cry just wasn't as involving. I played it, and I really liked it at first, then halfway through I got inexplicably bored (probably around the time the cliché scientist released his cliché experiments). Crytek games are like Serious Sam games to me - I can't get involved with a tech demo.
HL2 got praised for more than the engine and how good the graphics were or weren't, and rightly so. I'd rather play Deus Ex 1 with graphics that look like arse than Halo 4 with spandangly effects, any day of the week.
Good bloody point! It looks soooo good, too.
The first example of full body modelling I ever saw was one of the Tribes games. Was it Tribes 2, or even Tribes 1? Wouldn't be surprised if it was the 1st one - that game was way ahead of its time.
They always do this. They did this with HL2. Just be patient, it'll turn up. They're not psycho enough to not make HL3. Besides, would you rather they rushed it?
"You want to block piracy? Cool, I'll support that, if in return you (a) put in place a licensing mechanism where if I buy a film / album etc I have FULL rights to copy that as many times I want onto and convert that between any format I want and to play on any device I own so long as it's for reasonable personal / family / friends use."
One word: Ultraviolet. OK, doesn't apply to music, but it may answer some of your gripes.
Or not, in this case.
Looks like Randall's blacked out too.
El Reg has Cheezburger fans amongst its number? Next you'll be telling me you're members on My Little Brony.
1) You're being an unnecessary level of dick.
2) No such thing as hell.
3) This is a story on El Reg about an action figure. Calm down.
Scalpers != individuals looking to get a new iPhone...
Though I do love your attempt to protect the illustrious name of fanbois everywhere. It's adorable. "It couldn't possibly be one of the churchgoers doing this! I'll bet those scalpers were Android users!"
Just gotta know the shortcuts, baby. ;-) What, you think the staff are gonna walk alllll the way round? Sod that. If you keep an eye out, hidden in the maddening floor plan are shortcut doors and alleys. At our store most people would take upwards of 45 minutes walking the route on a Sunday, but I could get across it in about a minute.
What it means is that one egg was thrown by one guy who came back an hour later, and this is reported as "mad crowd of unemployed anti-capitalist scumbags pelt shop with missiles".
What's most amusing to me about this is the difference between this article and the way the Beeb reported the same story. In theirs, the overnight wait isn't mentioned, their market share is "massive", etc.
Mondo is right, though, you don't open the doors in those circumstances. When I was a PFY, I worked at IKEA, and we would occasionally hear of stampedes happening at other stores in response to offers. Off the top of my head, three people died in a crush at the Jeddah store, and the new London one had one too, though no-one was killed.
Even at our Birstall store, I had to break up several fights in the years I worked there, with customers getting violent over stuff as stupid and inexpensive as candles.
I seem to remember hearing about a new stampede a year or two ago. Evidently they haven't learned.
Tried all of the tricks, I'm afraid. The problem even varies in magnitude between plays. Sometimes Overkill is playable with the odd recalibration, and sometimes the drift is so fast that between me calibrating and shooting the "back to game" button, there's already a 7cm drift.
It's infuriating that the Wii version is more playable, given it's on that Nintendo piece of shit, doesn't support Motion+ (none of the light gun games do) and has framerate issues up the arse. It's more infuriating that I paid for a second copy of game I alreay own, and it doesn't work properly. Same goes for Dead Space: Extraction.
Zero Punctuation? This guy:
He's actually pretty damned funny.
It does seem to depend on the game. In Razing Storm, Dead Space: Extraction and House of the Dead: Overkill, I've calibrated the gun properly, held the gun steady, and watched the reticle drift off by 20, 30cm, easy. Really isn't acceptable, especially if you're fighting for rankings.
The GunCon3 has no such problems, but that only works for the Razing Storm collection.
Back on the PS2 I used to play a VR beat-em-up called Darkwind, using the Gametrak. The game was as ludicrous as all fighting games are, and had an obsession with jiggle physics that put even DOA to shame, but man you could work up a sweat on that game (not like that, you filthy sods). The gave showed a calorie readout every time you broke someone's face.
Would be interesting to see it done again, though in my experience the accuracy on the Wii and Kinect is a bit suspect, and the Move has serious, game-breaking drift issues in a lot of games - infuriatingly enough, all the rail shooters except Child of Eden.
Hell yes! And straight onto my list would be Bastion and Hard Reset. I never quite "got" Painkiller, pretty and violent as it was, but I loved Hard Reset. Bastion was just very very cool.
That is all.
What if he'd been a priacy researcher, and his website was full of the same links, but as examples of people illegally streaming TV? Would he have been extradited then? After all, he's still linking to filthy pirate scumbags, and we all know that PIRACY IS TERRORISM, at least according to the hilariously stupid unskippable warnings on my BDs.
It'd be a great idea if BMI wasn't horseshit!
Except that drinking alcohol at work is rarely encouraged.

Harrop Planning Third Run For Providence Mayor
A Providence psychiatrist has announced his candidacy for mayor of the capital city, and this is a man with a lot of experience running for the job.
After unsuccessful mayoral runs in 2006 and 2010, Dr. Daniel Harrop – a longtime Republican activist – is running for mayor of Providence again. As a Republican in a largely Democratic city, it will be an uphill climb. But Harrop said the city's unfunded pension liability under the leadership of Democrats is unsustainable.
"We can't fund the pension plan. There is no way to do that. We've kicked it down the road for another few years. So instead of going under in four, maybe we'll go under in seven or eight [years]. That's not a way to run the city," said Harrop.
Harrop is the first Republican to announce his candidacy for Providence mayor. Democrats pondering a run include lobbyist Brett Smiley, City Council President Michael Solomon and Central Falls educator Victor Capellan.

Great for teen
This is a great laptop for our teenager. She is very excited about it.Read More
This is the worst George Foreman grill ever! It takes forever to melt anything or cook something. Yesterday I was gonna make a grilled cheese and I put the sandwich on the flat glossy part, turned it on then shut the cover with the letter grill marks. I kid you not that thing was closed and cooked for 5 or so hours and the cheese didn't even melt! To boot the thing makes stupid music every time I turn it on to cook something. I think I am gonna save my money next time and do it the old fashion way.Read More
I was skeptical when I ordered it over the Internet, because it was advertised that the price was slashed with around 47%, I actually called to get more information, and the person that answered the phone did not really have a good answer why it was slashed so much, and I hesitated and looked around for an other three days because of that, Finally I decided to go ahead and order it, and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the package and turned it on. I was impressed, so impressed that I was going to order one for my wife, but Overstock had sold out of them, too bad.Read More

This review is being written from the viewpoint of using the book for self study for Inheritance tax, VAT and Individuals.
In this new format from TQT, what's most notable is that in order to extract maximum benefit from the book, one is required to purchase the Workbook (RRP £55) as the exam style questions for each chapter are contained there.
In the old format the exam style questions were incorporated into the study text. The reason for this change is that the content within FA11 is such that it would be impractical from a printing perspective to contain all the information in one book which is currently 750+ pages, so budget to spend £140 (£85 + £55) at RRP for these books.
The content within the book is laid out in easy to follow chapters but the BPP/TQT style of writing may not be to the taste of all. Some parts of the topics tend to be summarised instead of taught, so the onus is on the individual to grasp the concept themselves, which shouldn't be a problem if you have studied taxation before. This is where the Workbook is really beneficial.
Having said that, there is evidence that the content has been rehashed, some of it badly, as some in-chapter questions asks for knowledge or material that has not been covered yet in the text. This is very frustrating as one questions themselves whether they have missed reading chapter content only to find the answer later on in the chapter.
True to BPP tradition there are some mistakes within the book, certainly within the subjects I read, some obvious and some not so obvious but they are not large enough for one to fail an exam, but given how long BPP has being doing this, it is still surprising.
Overall the book is fairly well written and easy to understand and is adequate as part of a self study package providing other materials as used. I would also recommend using the legislation during your studies as this will enhance your understanding and give good preparation for the exam.

About the Film:
Directed by Emmanuelle Bercot. 2014. France. 113 mins. French with English subtitles
Now in her early sixties, former beauty queen Bettie (the ever-stunning Catherine Deneuve) finds herself jilted by her lover and left alone to deal with the financial problems facing her family's restaurant. What begins as a quick drive to clear her head turns into a full-fledged road trip, and along the way there are chance meetings, an ex-Miss France gala, renewed ties with her estranged daughter and grandson, and possibly, at the end of the road, love. A fun-filled riff on the American road-movie, On My Way is also a fantastic tribute to Catherine Deneuve's filmography, packed with references to François Truffaut, André Téchiné, François Dupeyron and more.

We used C&M to take care of 2 sinkholes, landscaping our back yard, taking down an old deck and building a new bigger deck with cable railing. They did a wonderful job on everything and did exactly... what they said they were going to do. Their workers were very professional, competent, and friendly and we would certainly use them again. We give them an A+.VIEW MORE »VIEW LESS »
I contacted C&M to provide an estimate for bamboo and vine removal to the left of our garage. C&M completed the work, hauled away the debris and made our yard look so much better! My husband and I... were so impressed with their work, that we signed on for regular lawn maintenance! C&M is a great company with super helpful, courteous employees!VIEW MORE »VIEW LESS »

Our front porch has been sinking over the years. Brendan provided us with a consultation and was very thorough in his explanation of what work would be done to support the porch. The entire staff kept in touch with us throughout the process prior to, during, and after the job was completed. The carpentry staff got to work on the two-day project and it was quite obvious they knew what they were doing. Our front porch is finally level and definitely won't be sinking again. This company is top-notch with knowledgable, professional employees. We highly recommend C & M Residential for any work. You will not be disappointed.
Sinkholes, we had three ... Big ones. C&M handled the problems (one was 30 feet deep!) and kept us informed and "part of the team" throughout. Because of how they handled the sinkholes, we contracted the, for a new driveway and walk, front landscaping and a patio. They rebuilt an aging, poorly designed sprinkler system. C&M was always professional and on time, from the designer to the foreman to the crew. Also, C&M communicated with me as I needed, via email, text and cell, accommodating my travel schedule. We will not undertake any exterior work without calling them. Excellent experience.
They devised a great plan to restore a creek eroded area and to prevent further erosion in a difficult to access area. Carried out the plan without a hitch. It looks great and seems to work. They had to move plants and landscaping to get to the area but restored everything so that you would never know what all they had to do. They even scrubbed the driveway when finished. Pricey but the results made it seem worth it. Brendan Smith really knows his stuff and makes everything hassle free.
My small project was treated with as much thought and excellent work as if it were C&M's top job. Brendan made a very good design for my front yard and carried it through with top quality plants and prompt installation. He even helped me diagnose what turned out to be a major vole problem.

I recently purchased a house in Powder Springs and after having a pool installed and other home related projects done I soon realized it is very rare to get honest, reliable and quality work done. After weeks of frustration I was lucky enough to meet with Brendan Smith a landscape architect with C and M Residential Services. Brendan's problem solving ability, expertise and professional demeanor was both enlightening and refreshing. At the end of the project my faith was restored in the fact that their are still quality oriented companies that do what they say, with no hidden costs. I would recommend them to anyone.
Contacted C&M to do some landscaping maintenance work. The company was professional during all conversations and during the estimate process. The pricing was fair and the work was done perfectly. I recommend them and will use them again.

Brendan Smith was sent to my home to evaluate the security of my deck. He was sooo thorough, I could never ask for more. He determined that my deck was secure with no need for any immediate action. He could have easily told me that I needed repairs, but he didn't. He was extremely professional. When it comes time for repairs, I will definitely request C & M - specifically Brendan Smith. I highly recommend C & M for an honest assesment and quotation for all future deck and landscaping needs.
C&M recently completed a backyard project for us including planning and installation of a landscape timber outlined, mulch-filled play area for my son�s swing set, which was on a slight downgrade. Additionally, they created two new pine straw beds and planted several new shrubs in an area where we could not grow grass properly. They planning with Denise was very helpful as she created a design that worked for us from a cost perspective and also improved the overall look of our backyard. We were also happy with the dialogue and service from both Carl and Michael. We were so impressed with C&M that we will most definitely use them for our next outdoor project. I would highly recommend C&M.

New to the area, couldn't get anyone to give me a contractor lead for a driveway, irrigation, and electrical work. Finally I overheard someone mention CM Residential Services. I called and Carl, the office mgr took all my information and set a time for me to meet with Michael, the owner. He was on time. AND as fate would have it, my water main to irrigation connection ruptured. He turned off the water at the main and one of the irrigation techs came by to seal things off so we could have water. The driveway was done in 2 days and perfect! The irrigation was reconnected and all sprinkler heads checked, replaced a couple, and set up all zones for maximum efficiency! CM Residential Services is AWESOME!!! I HIGHLY recommend them for ANY work you need done around your home!! THEY ROCK!!!
C&M did a great job for us. They significantly improved a drainage problem that we had, and did a wonderful job spreading pine straw, trimming trees, and improving the overall look of our property. We were so impressed that we hired them for the ongoing maintenance of our lawn.

My husband and I had an appt w/ Brendan Smith (sp) at 4 pm on Monday March 26 . My husband left work early to be home at 4:00 but Brendan never showed up. We did not receive a call from them to cancel the appt. Very disappointing considering all of the positive reviews I read about them. Our time is valuable and I felt this showed a lack of respect for their (potential) customers. I will not use this company in the future.
We did make an error on this appointment. Our office manager talked to this customer and set the appointment but then errantly did not send the email to Brendan with the calendar commitment. Therefore Brendan did not show up becuase he had no idea he was committed. However there were 3 people in our offices after 5 including myself who was here until almost 8 as this is a very busy season. Had this customer picked up the phone and called us, I would have gone to see them myself as soon as I could have gotten there. We do make this mistake once in a while especially in hectic seasons. We keep a joint calendar and so all of the appointments set by the office and the rest of the management team are emailed back and forth and saved so that we all know where each of us is committed all the time. We are always anxious to make up for our shortcomings and this potential customer is welcome to call or email me at email@example.com. I will be more than happy to make myself avaialble at their convenience and consult them myself in an effort to make up for our mistake. Michael C. Staley, President.
Excellent presentation by salesman, very poor service. Came when I wasn't home to supervise as requested, left 4 big piles of debris on sidewalk & pine island, completely unexpected when they were being considered for monthly maintenance work.
As always, we try to make and keep every customer happy. We find that there is almost always a way to do so. Firstly we told this customer a tentative schedule for the work and talked to the spouse the morning of the work. When performing clean up work as this particular customer hired us to do, there are simply rates for the services involved that conflict with the customers budget from time to time. Our paperwork is very clear on what the ESTIMATE includes and in this case we have ended up with review saying we were a huge disappointment when we did did a very good job of the work that was specified on the paperwork. We would have been more than happy to perform additional work however additional charges would have applied and that was the real issue. I will gladly make myself available to discuss if desired. firstname.lastname@example.com

I hired C&M to re-surface my deck and railing - and they did a fantastic job at a good price. What set them apart, though, was their service. 6 months after they stained the deck, I noticed that it was peeling in spots. When I brought it up to them, they came right out and checked on it. Rather than just dropping it, they worked with me (and the stain manufacturer) to get it remedied. A lot of contractors would have left me on my own. Thanks C&M.

We were extremely pleased with the total experience involving a lawn installation by C&M Residential. Denise did a superb job of communicating requiremnts/expectations and the office staff was very responsive. The installation crew led by Ivan was exceptional. Well done by all!

First of all, I wanted to have a major yard clean up done in the back yard. I contacted three other companies and had them come out to give me estimates. Everyone who came out was totally unprofessional in the way they were dressed and the way they spoke. None of them could give me a clear idea of how many hours the job would take and how costly it would be. I had wanted to use a local company to give business back to the community which would help the local economy, however, I was pretty fed up! When the gentleman from C&M Residential Services, Inc. came out, he was dressed professionally in clean khakis and a polo type shirt and was carrying a clipboard to take notes. He took his time walking around the yard with me. He asked me what I wanted done and then at the end, he told me that he'd email me an estimate that evening.They weren't the cheapest company, but I got the quality of work I was after. I thought they did such good job, I'm now on their monthly maintenance plan. At the end of the month, I am always given the option for them to do more work. They provide a written out quote I can go over on my own time and make a sound decision. They are very responsive. When they say they'll be there at a certain time, they are there. And when they say they'll get something done, they'll do it. Also, if there's ever something they're not sure of, they'll ask me before they start work on it, even if it means calling me if I'm not there. I am totally satisfied with this company. It's been a very long time since I've been completely satisfied with a service company! I'd highly, highly recommend their services to anybody!

First flowers of the season!
I was walking through my camellias this morning and spotted flowers! I have two blooming, Shishigashira and C. sinensis 'Rosea'. I can't find notes on Rosea, but I discovered that Shishi is starting bloom exactly one week earlier than last year. Anyone else seeing flowers yet?
One of my sisters has a white-flowering C. sinensis and the buds on hers have swollen and should be blooming soon - perhaps within a week or so. Mine is related to 'Rosea' (pink flowering but also has reddish leaves) but isn't quite ready to bloom yet as I have it in a more shady spot. Hers is in mostly sun - both of ours are potted and outside.
Jenny my Rosea is in the ground and gets sun till about 12:30 then shade. I just went out to look and the whole plant is in shade now with sun just beyond its branch tips, which I take to mean the shade just recently fell over the whole plant.
I have notes from past years on first open flower(s) for it and Shishigashira
2004: Shishi-September 3;Rosea-September 13
2005: Shishi-September 29
I really like sinensis, it is a very handsome plant. The flowers aren't big and flashy like most, but that is part of the charm to me. Gives it an air of quiet sophistication.
It is a time of Camellias.
My beautiful "Yuletide", is blooming from the first days of October.

Our earliest sasanqua begins blooming around the first of September and is generally finished with its blooming cycle by the end of September or in early October. It is a 'Pink Dauphin.' Its intense perfume is a magnet to yellow jackets, honey bees, bumble bees, and ants. Our earliest _Camellia japonicas_ generally begin blooming during the middle of September. These varieties are 'Daikagura,' 'High Hat,' which is a sport of 'Daikagura,' and 'September Morn,' (aka 'Yohei-Haku').
Yesterday afternoon, I also noticed the first bloom on our 'Mine-no-Yuki' sasanqua and also on our 'Shishigashira.' The 'Mine-no-Yuki' has a gardenia planted next to it in the foundation shrubbery. There are several fall blossoms on the gardenia, which are a treat in October.
Hello Camelliófilos.
This one is a time of Camellias.
The Autumn is a time of Camellia sasanqua. But in Autumn it blooms also the Camellia japonica. Some of the most ancient and beautiful Camellias that came to West, begin to be bloomed by them in the Autumn. White C. japonica 'ALBA PLENA', C. japonica ' ANEMONAEFLORA ALBA' And " C. japonica ' LADY HUME'S BLUSH ", that we are called 'CAMURÃA'.

Mamas and Grandmas...A question please!
My little four week old grandbaby has THRUSH...the medicine my DIL is giving him is making him sooo gassy and fussy...got any quick cures for relieving that gas besides milicon drops...He was in so much pain last night...nothing we've tried is helping...I'm thinking she needs to try a different formula cause obviously it has too much yeast in it...he was already colic=y...that's why she has him on a sensitive formula!!
Just looking for ideas from you fab kt women!!
So sorry to hear that Liz. I have had no experience with thrush, but gassy babies, yes! Amber used to buy some over the counter herbal stuff for Alyssa, I don't know if it is your little Grandson's medication causing it, I would ask the doctor what to do.
Best of luck, aren't babies just the greatest!
He may need a soy based formula? My daughter was allergic to cows milk, she projectile vomited.
There is another that my preemie nieces were on, Nutramagen not sure of the spelling there? They were beyond gassy, had reflux.
Check the hole in the nipple to make sure it isn't too large and he is swallowing lots of air.
There is something called colic cure or similiar to that? It's natural from what I am remembering?
Good luck!
Gripe water I've heard of too. Never tried it.
Here is a link that might be useful: Gassy baby
Put him in a car seat ...hop in the car and go round and round...round and round ........bet he wakes as soon as the engine stops!! By then you may have had a few minutes of silence from those pitiful cries. We used a baby swing too, the one with the vibrator and the swing went from left to right rather than back and forth. That was only used as an extra pair of hands/arms when getting things ready for a bath or mealtime. Ten minutes or so at a time is long enough. Too many use them for all day babysitters.
DD had colic. We did a lot of driving around in the car and the swing was a lifesaver. The rest of the time was spent wearing her,walking her and nursing her. Her colic lasted well into her first year. Hopefully your DIL's lttle one will have standard colic that he outgrows in a couple of months or even weeks. It's no picnic.
His colic may or may not have anything to do with the thrush although the thrush is certainly adding to his discomfort.
Having been there with colic my theory is different from most. I don't believe colic is gas. I believe the gas is a result of colic. All that screaming makes the wee one swallow air and distends the tummy. My personal theory is just that some babies are hypersensitive to their environmenr. I don't think food plays a role in it unless a babe is truly allergic to something in the formula. Babies are never allergic to breast milk. Breast fed babies get colic. I won't go into the science of why what a mother eats has nothing to do with it since it's not relevant in this case.
Another possibility is he is suffering from acid reflux. Bottle babies eat much too quickly at times and take in air. If the bottle is held incorrectly they will also swallow more air.
at 4.19 cents a gallon...these kids are not opting for the driving around...she walks him around their neighborhood in the stroller and that helps...but in the meantime her nerves are about shot...I told my son she's probably getting close to that first period after birth and her poor hormones are probably raging...
the doctor wasn't much help...she told my DIL he has to finish his medicine and to tough it out...(I told my DIL she needs to find a new pediatrician!)
they do the swing but like u said 3j's...10 minutes is about enough...my son was really gassy just like his baby is...I know exactly what their going thru...at least she has extended family and friends to help out..when my kids were little my husband and I were hundreds of miles from family and on our own...
It breaks my heart to hear this little doll baby scream...Isn't he precious? He'll be 5 weeks old Sunday so hopefully the colic will be passing soon and she's got to come up with a better formula for him!
He's a little porker...He weighed 5lb8oz at birth and he's up to 8lbs 11 oz...I call him chunky monkey!!
He's adorable and obviously thriving. I know it doesn't help but this too shall pass. My little grandaughter is 3 months old and cutting teeth. Her way of course. One upper and one lower at the same time. LOL Last week we had a mini family reunion. Sleep for DD the night before? 2 1/2 hours from 7:30 to 10:00 am. Sleep for her DH? A quick nap after work the day before. Life goes on.
Pic of Mia taken Aug. 31st 2 days after she turned 3 months old.
Here's a short video on a gas-relieving way to hold a baby. I used this hold a lot with my babies, even if they didn't have gas.
Didn't know it was called the football hold but we did that with all our kids...people looked at us like we had two heads and were abusing the little guys. I did it most of the time while sitting down and holding them over my legs like that. It gave us both a much needed rest. It is different for sure but it worked and the burps didn't have to come up they came out ...as the child was level. I think putting babies on their backs causes a lot of that gas as they cannot move around as much as they could on their tummies...pushing up with their knees and it seems natural. I know I would NOT want to be on my back with gas pain or acid reflux. Oh I forgot the baby in the clothesbasket on a folded blanket on top of the dryer when it was running. I stood there beside them but the motion seemed to quiet them too.
Two of my kiddos had lactose intolerance that kicked in at 2 weeks, making them miserable. It took another week until a kindly nurse told me what the problem could be and she was so right. I could not have even the TINIEST bit of dairy or baby would react. A bad tummy shouldn't have anything to do with thrush. Good luck--it's so hard to see them in distress, isn't it??
Wildchild--darling grandbaby! I hear you on the next to no sleep. I'll never forget those lonnnnggggg nights and desperation for sleep. :)
When my DD had colic.....way back in 1966, the doc was no help but his "nurse", an older woman told me to buy some oil of peppermint.
She told me to add five drops to 4-6 ounces with warm water and a tsp. of sugar. It worked but I would not recommend it because of the possible toxic effects of the oil of peppermint.
I was young and foolish not to mention being at my wits end.
Carol...I wouldn't try it...but I bet in 1966 and ready to pull your hair out...you'd do anything!!!...My hubster just saw the inside of his mouth tonight and now he's online trying to figure the whole thing out...LOL...
We probably all did some things with our youngins that I wouldn't dare do with my grandbaby...
Since they aren't going to drive around, I had friends that
took that baby chair he's in, and place it on top of the
clothes dryer and turned it on! they took a chair in and sat next to the dryer and made sure the baby and chair didn't vibrate off! lol . If I remember correctly, it worked well!
From day one my son would scream for what seemed like hours after I fed him (formula). It turns out he was lactose intolerant. As soon as we switched formula all was well. He is 27 years old now and still has to be very careful with dairy. Lactaid has been a lifesaver for him.
I hope your grandbaby feels better quickly. What a handsome little guy he is!
wildchild your granddaughter is beautiful! Her little buddy sure keeps a good eye on her!
Kat...no need to put him on the dryer...the bassinet vibrates...the swing vibrates...his jumpy chair vibrates...they've come a long way in the 20 years since my kids were babies...
Matti...I think I have her convinced to get some soy formula...she's so young and is afraid to do anything without her doctor suggesting it...sometimes Grandma ain't all that dumb ya know!!
My vote would go against the soy formula. He's only five weeks old. All this switching around what you feed is not giving him a chance to adjust to the formula. There is also new controversy about using soy products for infants unless it is absolutely necessary. That would be babies who have a true milk allergy or are truly diagnosed with lactose intolerance.
Colic just is. It is not diet related and there are many breast fed babies who go through it also. I know several and in fact because of the poor advice often given breast feeding mother's many panic and take them off the breast and put them on formula when they become colicky. So it most likely isn't the formula. it's probably an immature digestive system or an immature nervous system or perhaps a bit of both.
Your DDIL needs to listen to her pediatrician or get a new one. He may just seem brusque about the colic because he hears it every day. If his manner isn't compatible with your DIL's wishes/needs then she should definitely seek out a pedi she is more comfortable with.
Colic just is. Children survive it and grow into perfectly healthy people. My DD screamed for several hours a day for almost 6 months. Then she tapered but was still "colicky" for another 3 months. She was exclusively breast fed for 5 months when I was guilt tripped into starting cereal being a first time mother.
It's heart-breaking to hear them scream and such a feeling of helplessness but he will survive. There has been excellent advice given on soothing him. As your DDIL gains confidence she will discover what works for him. My DD like to be held hanging face down over my arm while I swung from side to side. (a relaxed football hold) I learned to do everything with her like that.
Thanks for the compliments on Mia. The dog with her is one of 3. I call them "the crows" since they perch and stare.
They are siblings, one male and two females. The dog in the pic is one of the girls. She has appointed herself head nursemaid since the day she met Mia. The others are always nearby and are very protective of the babe.
I wouldn't switch to soy formula either unless there is an allergy to the regular formula...soy formula is linked to thyroid disease.
He's adorable Liz!! Growing fast.
Mia sure looks like she has quite the personality Wildchild! What a cutie.

AFAIK 'thrush' is an overgrowth of yeast. I have had that -- and gas -- develop while on an antibiotic. (The antibiotic kills *everything*, including the beneficial stuff.) Taking a probiotic (Acidophilus) has solved the problem for me. There must be something in a strength appropriate for a baby.
In my experience MD's don't think about natural reactions to antibiotics, but are fine with probiotics if you bring it up. (Same with being put on a steroid that 'wires' you. They are fine with prescribing a sleep aid, but YOU have to bring it up! Duh.)
Holding the baby with 'tail raised' will help him pass the gas: "Poot!"
I found this at Earthclinic.com:
[YEA] 11/12/2007: Shannon from Titusville, FL: "Thrush in newborns: Take a q-tip or cotton swab dip it in Milk of Magnesia and rub it around the babies mouth twice a day sure enough it will cure it just as fast as it came on. I have a one month old who got thrush and sure enough instantly it started working. Helped ease the discomfort and cleared it up with not problems!!!" Several people said this worked.. there are other remedies listed, but this one seems the best choice for an infant.
I don't know what kind of bottle she uses but Dr Brown's bottles are wonderful for babies with colic or reflux! It was amazing how much difference they made with my preemie twins. They do cost more and there are more parts to clean but it has been well worth it for me.
WOW...so many responses!! Thank y'all so much...she's sticking with the formula...cause it's for sensitive tummies...i got to see that thrush first hand last night while waiting to feed him...that mouth was wide open and blood curdling screams were emitting from that little mouth...it doesn't bother me near as much as it bothers them...LOL...
lydia...my sister told me about the milk of magnesia...something she used on her daughter back in 1968 when she was a baby...isn't that wild...I doubt that she'll try it...sooo many issues with giving a baby OTC...I gave him an extra oz of water in his formula two weeks ago and they both jumped on me bad...so I kinda learned my place...
JEMDANDY..that would be wonderful if she woulda breastfed..but all the cajoling and begging would not change her mind...
CHISUE...I had major problems with yeast the last two years and it started with a spider bite...had two shots and two different antibods for ten days...it took me two years and lots of probiotics to get right...those are a wonder pill...i doubt that the health food store has anything close...i do have aloe vera juice in the frig and it says babies up to one year can have a teaspoon a day...but DIL will only try it if the doc says ok...and I'm perfectly ok with that!!
Thanks for all your responses ladies and gents!! I wish I had more time to play but I've got to run!

Do you think that the wider beam trend in the recent decades has something to do (apart from the accommodations benefits) with lack of wish to sail to windward instead of motoring? Paulo I would appreciate your input on that. Do majority of cruisers in the Med use their engine instead of beating?
Yes, on the med most of the boats motor upwind and you would not believe how much I can go faster and point higher than the average (the few that take pleasure in beating upwind) sailboat. Somehow I tend to end up sailing upwind most of the time and I like it. I would say that is not a very common taste or preference. With a decent wind I can go at 26º apparent doing 6.5K while most of the mass production cruisers go slower or at the same speed at 35º. On two years of sailing I have yet to find a boat that can out point mine (they are out there but there are not many and most of them are used to racing).
The Luffe or Faubry are not only about pointing but also about the motion in the water. Yes they are more comfortable in hard conditions upwind (if we discount heeling) and if on a big picture I think that boats more balanced in what regards beam like Arcona, GS or mine, offer a better package (mainly in what regards interior space), the love of sailing a nimble boat with a very moderate beam will always have their fans. No I don't think it is a dying species but will never be a boat for the majority. Regarding fast cruising and racing boats like the J122 show that they are as fast or faster than beamier boats.

Ford Probe
97 Ford Probe. 2.5L GT, 107,000 miles. Two days ago I tried starting my car and it died. It took 3 tries and revving the engine before it would stay on. After I drove about a mile it started making this loud " knocking" or rattling noise from the engine. The oil guage jumps up and down and the clutch wont come all the way back up when you pres it. I know my car needs some work, but what can this be. When my spark plugs, wires and slave cylinder were switched out the guy told me that something was leaking down into 1 of the plugs. I was having problem with the car for a while and then it sat for 2 months and it seemed to get better but now worse. Can someone please help me? I'm tired of getting screwed

Just bought 2 of these in Mirrored Mauve and Gleaming Grenadine. I quite like these. Nice light fruity scent, not sticky, feels nice on the lips. Mirrored Mauve is definitly more pigmented and more like a liquid lipstick. Nice nude without making me look dead. Gleaming Grenadine is more like a gloss and less pigmented/opaque. Looks quite red in the tube but more sheer corally red on my lips. Both show verly small amount of sparkle/glitter in the tube but not really on the lips.

I Love these glosses by far some of the best glosses released in a long time. They are not sticky they are very pigmented. The best thing is when the line was released they did not offer just 2 colors they released a bunch of colors. I love these OMG!!!!! If you are looking for some I have a couple for swap.
Colors I Love
Captivating Coral
Electric Shock
Raspberry Reflections
Iced Chocolate

I am so impressed with this gloss. I have Plum Lustre, which is bright, rosy color with a little shimmer that looks kind of fushia on my lightly pigmented lips, rather than plum. I am amazed at the opaque, pigmented color and the creaminess and the long wear without being sticky. I really consider this a liquid lipstick rather than a gloss, although it is nice and shiny. Boy, this gloss lasts a long time on the lips. I'm wearing it today. I put it on a 7 am and got to work at 9 am and ate a toasted buttered bagel and when I was finished eating, most of the color was still there. If not eating, it lasts for hours. When it wears off, it leaves a nice stain. I'm going back to CVS for more colors!

I got these lipglosses in several colors! They are soft on the application,non-sticky,they go well over a lipstick,they last fairly long! Electric shock:a bright pink.Raspberry reflections:a bright magenta.Plum luster:a shimmery dark plum-red.One shine day:a dark shimmery pink-peach.Glisten up pink:a pale shimmmery peach.Luminous latte:a shiny pale caramel.Mirrored mauve:a dark mauve.Iced chocolate:a medium nude with silver shimmers. Verry nice selection of colors! Love it!

- applicator
- none
Comments: I'm so glad they revamped this line, rather than discontinue it. The formula is the same as the original - creamy and not sticky (with a fruity scent). I have always found these comparable to Revlon Super Lustrous glosses, only with a thinner consistency. The shade range and pigmentation has definitely improved. The applicator is now slanted and picks up more product for easy distribution. I also think the packaging looks really nice.
Will repurchase.

Customer Quotes
"I was referred to Michele when I was ready to become a first time homeowner. The home loan process at first seemed a little overwhelming, but Michele was there every step of the way to make sure everything was taken care of. Michele was always available for any questions or concerns, and she made me feel at ease with what at first seemed to be a daunting task. Thanks to her help, I am now a happy homeowner. I would recommend Michele to anyone who is in search of a home loan."
"I had the best experience getting a home loan with Michele. She walked me through everything. If I had a question she could answer it, and I had a lot of questions. Michele also did a lot of the leg work for me. Thank you again for all you did for me."
"My hopes of owning a home seemed more of a dream than reality. Michele reviewed my financials, assisted with document preparation, and suggested I fill out a mortgage loan application. I was astonished when she informed me I was approved for a mortgage and should start looking for a home. The hardest part of the process was actually choosing what home to buy. To this day, when I pull into the drive way, I can't believe I actually own the home of my dreams! "

Designers who have developed a strong concept to ignite change in their community, along with a well-conceived and researched plan for execution, are invited to apply for the Sylvia Harris Citizen Design Award for $10,000 toward implementation of their project.
AIGA Medalist Sylvia Harris (1953–2011) is widely recognized as a pioneer, a generous mentor and a vital inspiration to the field of social impact design. In that spirit, the Sylvia Harris Citizen Design Award has been established to honor her legacy by supporting other vanguards dedicated to public design.
Professional designers may apply with a thoroughly developed project that meets the following broad parameters:
The Sylvia Harris Citizen Design Award is for practicing professionals from all design disciplines (graphic, product, architecture, interior, interactive,
service design, etc.). Applicants must have a minimum of one year of professional design experience. Applicants must be based in the United States and the
projects must be implemented in the United States in their own community or in a community in which they are deeply embedded.
All award applications will be reviewed by an independent committee of creative professionals, business, civic and nonprofit leaders. Projects will be
evaluated on concept, viability and potential for impact.
The winner will be announced approximately one month after the deadline, at which time monies will be made available.
Applying for the award is a three-part process:
Part 1: Register as a Design Ignites Change participant
Register as a participant at DesignIgnitesChange.org to receive a participant login, which is required for Part 2. It is recommended that you register at least two weeks before the deadline.
Part 2: Post your project's case study on DesignIgnitesChange.org You will post your project case study on the Design Ignites Change site, using the the login you receive once you become a registered participant.
Part 3: Complete an online applicationAn online application must also be submitted through PitchBurner (requires a separate login) by the deadline. The application system will be available in late spring 2014; in the meantime, we encourage applicants to download a PDF of the application.
The following parameters and restrictions apply:
Over her twenty-five year career, Sylvia Harris championed "good design for the common good," tirelessly promoting accessible communications for mass
audiences. As founder and principal of Citizen Research & Design, she consulted for the nation's largest hospitals, universities, and civic agencies on
strategic design planning, public policy development and innovation management.
Her career highlights included serving as creative director of the 2000 National Census for the U.S. Census Bureau; an appointment to the U.S. Postal Service
Citizens' Stamp Advisory Committee; advisor for Design Trust for Public Space, the African Burial Ground and AIGA Design for Democracy; educator at Yale
University, The School of Visual Arts and The Cooper Union; and co-founder of the firm Two Twelve Associates.
Sylvia was a founder of the nonprofit Public Policy Lab, which is dedicated to improving public services and empowering Americans through design and
policy. She established the Citizen Designer movement shortly before her untimely death in 2011, and will be honored posthumously with a 2014 AIGA Medal.
Design Ignites Change believes that creativity holds enormous power to spark positive social change. As a collaboration between the Adobe Foundation and Worldstudio, Design Ignites Change supports creative professionals and students who use design thinking—the combination of unleashed creativity and executable
actions—to improve the lives of individuals and communities.
AIGA, the professional association for design, advances design as a
professional craft, strategic advantage and vital cultural force. As the
largest community of design advocates, we bring together practitioners,
enthusiasts and patrons to amplify the voice of design and create the
vision for a collective future. We define global standards and ethical
practices, guide design education, inspire designers and the public,
enhance professional development, and make powerful tools and resources
accessible to all. Learn more at aiga.org/about.

.22 gun is a must. All gun owners must have at least one. I would difinately suggest a Ruger, any of the Mark series. Curious though you say the .45 is out because of price. 45ACP rounds are no more expensive or harder to find that a 9mm or a .40 cal. Are you sure you weren't looking at the .45 colt. That is a whole different round and yes that is an expensive round. You should be able to find a box of 50 .45 ACP's anywheres from 18 to 25 dollars. Also if you like the .40 cal, you'll really like the .45ACP. The 40 has more kick or muzzle flip or snap, what ever you want to call it, but the .45 ACP has the same kick, but more of like a push rather than a snap. I personally enjoy and shoot the 45 ACP over my Beretta Px4 40 cal. I suggest a good 1911.
wisdom comes with time and time is never ending
I bought a Walther P22 after buying my .40 and I would say it was well worth it. Ammunition is so easy to come by and cheap.
I have a 229 .40S&W as well as P22 and its a great little gun. fun to shoot..not something i would consider Home Defense though.
I vote you get a revolver. a nice .357 would allow you to shoot .38sp and they are a blast to shoot at the range.
