Raising 'slow' kids no small feat today
By now most of you have heard of the slow food movement – the growing trend to support local farms and foods and sustainable growing methods.
I'm all for the slow foods movement, but I believe there's another national treasure – yes, even more important than food – that could benefit from a slowdown.
I say it's high time we start a slow kids movement.
I'm not advocating that we raise kids who aren't bright. I mean we should raise them the old-fashioned way, with access to less technology and fewer gadgets.
We need fewer Playstations and Gameboys, and more puzzles, blocks, card games and board games. We need fewer X-boxes – and more cardboard boxes.
We need less lapware (make that zero lapware) and more laptime read-aloud sessions.
We need less screen time and more screened-porch time. More nature walks, backyard camping, lightning-bug catching and lazy conversations with our families.
Most of all, we need less entertainment and more moments of boredom – those moments that spur kids to build forts out of chairs, blankets, and sofa cushions and to play store, school and restaurant. It's that kind of play that best teaches them to to experience frustration, learn patience and tolerance of others, and practice the principle of delayed gratification.
When my own three children (born in the 1980s) were young, television was the worst of the electronic distractions – and that was tough enough to limit. My girls learned from an early age, though, that "Mommy turns on the TV" and that TV was an occasional treat. It was that simple. As for electronic games and toys, they just never made it into the house (until the youngest was 10, that is, and her ever-indulgent granny bought one).
I'll admit that like any other perennially-exhausted mom, I had days when it was all I could do to crash on the couch while the kids watched Sesame Street. But those days were the exception and not the rule.
I knew that letting my children marinate hour after lazy hour in front of the TV -- even educational TV -- was doing them no favors if it replaced creative, make-believe activities, outdoor recreation, and hands-on play with three-dimensional objects.
I knew that the very act of watching TV, no matter how good the content, encourages passivity, saps initiative, and shortens attention spans – habituating developing brains to fast-paced, constantly-shifting action.
I knew that kindergarten teachers, on the very first day of school, have no trouble picking out the children who have been regularly read to, and the kids who have been nourished on electronic entertainment. That's why the American Academy of Pediatrics sets guidelines limiting screen time to one or two hours a day after age two – and zero screen time prior to two.
I can already see, though, that my daughters are going to face much bigger challenges than I did when they start their families and try to set such limits.
Today, TV's are all around us: in the mall food courts, restaurants and waiting rooms, and in an astounding number of cars. From the research, I also know that an estimated half of all American children – one study of third graders put the number at 70 percent – have TV's in their bedrooms.
But if in the rare moments that they don't have a TV to watch, never fear – kids today have entertainment at their fingertips! I see these children in grocery stores and restaurants, eyes glued to the screens of their cell phones or hand-held games.
I have to wonder, what will happen to this generation of kids that has been pacified from birth with electronic toys, growing up with the expectation that they should never have to suffer without entertainment for even a moment? How will they cope with adulthood when they've learned to react to the slightest discomfort or boredom by reflexively seeking an escape from reality?
What will happen to children who have never experienced the frustration of long lines or long car rides, and who have never had to invent games in their head or – horrors – converse with a parent to amuse themselves during these down times?
It's got to be doubly hard to raise a slow kid today, when the culture has been taken over by electronic gadgets as status symbols and social crutches. But raising slow children can still be done – if parents are willing to buck the norm and be something of a counterculture parent.
So if you'd like to raise a slow child – or maybe just introduce a slow moment here and there into your child's fast-paced life – let's talk.
In the coming months I plan to write in this space about the ways 21st-century parents can strive to provide their children with the best aspects of an old-fashioned childhood.
I'd like to get your feedback. What rules do you have (or did you have, if your children are grown like mine) for limiting screen time? How do you encourage reading and outdoor play?
If you're a teacher, what classroom observations have you made about wired-from-birth students versus those from "slow" homes?
And if you think I'm all wet, and you want to tell me me about your Nintendo-addicted child who gets straight 'A's, or who went on to become a successful, well-adjusted adult, I want to hear from you as well.
Until then – here's to slowing down!
Local couple wins wedding at Lewis Ginter
Richmonders Jim Morgan and Dan Stackhouse were married at Lewis Ginter Botanical Garden in Lakeside Mar. 7 month after winning the Say I Do! With OutRVA wedding contest in February.

Morgan and Stackhouse, who became engaged last fall on the day marriage equality became the law in Virginia, have been together for 16 years. They were selected from among 40 couples who registered for the contest. The winners were announced at the Say I Do! Dessert Soiree at the Renaissance in Richmond in February. > Read more.

A taste of Japan
Ichiban offers rich Asian flavors, but portions lack
In a spot that could be easily overlooked is a surprising, and delicious, Japanese restaurant. In a tiny nook in the shops at the corner of Ridgefield Parkway and Pump Road sits a welcoming, warm and comfortable Asian restaurant called Ichiban, which means "the best."
The restaurant, tucked between a couple others in the Gleneagles Shopping Center, was so quiet and dark that it was difficult to tell if it was open at 6:30 p.m. on a Monday. When I opened the door, I smiled when I looked inside. > Read more.
One beauty of a charmer
Disney's no-frills, live-action 'Cinderella' delights
Cinderella is the latest from Disney's new moviemaking battle plan: producing live-action adaptations of all their older classics. Which is a plan that's had questionable results in the past.
Alice in Wonderland bloated with more Tim Burton goth-pop than the inside of a Hot Topic. Maleficent was a step in the right direction, but the movie couldn't decide if Maleficent should be a hero or a villain (even if she should obviously be a villain) and muddled itself into mediocrity.
Cinderella is much better. Primarily, because it's just Cinderella. No radical rebooting. No Tim Burton dreck. It's the 1950 Disney masterpiece, transposed into live action and left almost entirely untouched. > Read more.

White powder on inside of canned plums?
Hi there,
There is a fine white powder (not a lot) on the top inside glass of my jars of canned plums from the fall. I did a raw pack with a mildly sweet syrup. My thought is that it's just some sugars left over after the plums absorbed more of the liquid. The seal was good, and there's no substance on the rim or lid.
I'm just wondering if this is safe or if I should be concerned?
Thank you for any thoughts on this...
Hard to picture a "powder" in there given the liquid base so without seeing it all I can do is guess at what it might be. I never use raw pack for anything given the many advantages of hot pack so this is just a guess.
Something that was inside the plums, crystals from excess sugar or undissolved sugar, or yeast / mold. By crystals don't look like powder.
Assuming the jars were processed properly and given the acidity of the fruit it is hard to believe it is yeast or mold.
Safe? Probably. Once you open the jars you should be able to tell for sure.
There's no particular food-risk with canned plums except for obvious spoilage like mold or fermentation, which can happen if the plums are over-ripe and there's yeast left on the skin. You'd be able to determine either of those possibilities quite quickly as they're obvious by sight and smell.
Personally, if they smell good and aren't "fizzy" I wouldn't be worried. My guess is since it's a raw pack some of the sugar wasn't fully dissolved or, perhaps, it's a precipitate from the "bloom" which exists on the skins of plums. As it's a powder, the latter seems more likely.

Good thing Little Peej didn't say how long that sandwich was under his bed…
Good thing Little Peej didn't say how long that sandwich was under his bed…
You faithful readers may have noticed that I have posted a couple of my recent comic strips a little late or not at all (Yikes!) The reasons for this are…
1. My non-comic strip freelance workload. Since the beginning of the year I've been buried with commercial cartoon/illustration work and that's a good thing but it also forces my lesser-paying projects, like Best In Show, onto the back burner. Want to change that? Buy merchandise or become a Patreon supporter (https://www.patreon.com/bestinshowcomic)
2. My wife and I are expecting our first child in a few weeks. There are lots of doctor's appointments and preparations to be made. This forces EVERYTHING onto the back burner.
The late strips will not happen very often and I'll do my best to make sure that they're on time every time. Thanks for understanding!
This year, me and some colleagues from the Twin Cities Comic Collective were asked to participate in the Rosemount Area Arts Council's "Star Wars Extravaganza" (http://www.rosemountarts.com/Star-Wars-2014.html), a celebration of all things Star Wars. We were approached by the board of directors of RAAC to draw caricatures for the throngs of people that attended the event. After a conference call and some back-and-forth emails me, Jeff Kulisek, Jack Kotz and Scott Rolfs came up with a set of pre-drawn Star Wars characters (with the heads left blank to accommodate the caricatures. I decided to draw Han Solo, Ashoka Tano and Ben Kenobi.)
The plan was to provide free caricatures for all those that were interested in having one done. We set up a booth displaying all of the different Star Wars character sketches and attendees would select who they wanted to be and brought the sketch to one of the artists. The artist would then do a quick caricature of the subject's head on the character's body. Everybody ate it up! The line was out the door for the entire 3+ hours of the event. We ended up staying almost an hour after the doors closed to finish up the last of the kids that wanted their caricature done. Talk about commitment! These kids stood in line for two hours to get a sketch…damn right they were gonna get one.
To be honest, this was the first caricature gig that I've done on this scale. I was surprised at how easily I found the likenesses and translated them into pencil and sharpie marker images. The best part were the smiles on the kids' faces when they saw their own face on Han Solo's or Boba Fett's body. It was priceless.
Needless to say, I think we'll be invited to do this again next year. Thanks to John Loch, Jim Kotz and the rest of the board of directors for RAAC for inviting us to be a part of this awesome event.
Now for a few pics…
One of the best things about Best In Show's 'reboot' is that I get to rewrite my childhood. You'll notice that the 'Joe' character is showing up a lot. Joe is one of my best friends and has been for 20 years. We weren't children together but through Best In Show, we get a look at what it would've been like. This will be true for a lot of characters that will be making appearances and are based on people that I've known as an 'adult'. It's quite enjoyable and not a little emotional recreating this part of my life. Judging from the feedback from readers, it's resonating with a lot of them, too.
Last week I experienced the worst thing that could happen to a digital artist…my computer crashed and had to be sent to the repair shop. Luckily, I was able to use my wife's computer to keep my business running. It's times like these that really show us how much we take for granted. Like Photoshop brushes. Anyhoo, below are the comic strips that you've missed over the last week. Enjoy!
This past weekend my colleagues in ink Lucas Munson, Jeff Kulisek, Jack Kotz and I traveled to Des Moines, IA for the 11th or so annual Comic Book I-Con comicon. It was held at Community Choice Credit Union Convention Center in downtown Des Moines on Saturday October 25th. From what I understand this venue was a considerable upgrade from their previous location. By, say, 35,000 sq ft! I'm happy to say that it payed off…
We had a late start on Friday evening…We all met at Jeff's house and parked our cars. Amazingly, we packed all of our con gear and our bodies into Jeff's Hyundai SUV. We left at about 8pm that evening and arrived at Travelodge Des Moines by midnight. Needless to say, we got our room keys and went directly to bed.
Saturday we were up at 7am and down to breakfast shortly thereafter. I love continental breakfasts…especially when they include donuts AND belgian waffles! So, we ate, we drank our coffee, we…I mean I grabbed a donut for the road and we were off to the convention center!
Upon arrival at the load in area, we all grabbed our stuff and headed in. There was no signage so that when we walked through the bay door and saw a rollaway grandstand bleachers and a line of about seven tables I immediately thought: " Oh, gawd…this CAN'T be it! We're doomed!" Just as I was about to step on my jaw that was hovering above the floor a woman came up to us and said:"The show is this way." She lead us through the bowels of the convention center, through back passageways, around hollowed out vending machines and forests of stacked chairs to the actual comicon room. Which was BIG. Because it was so big and there were such a modest amount of vendors and artists, it looked like we were floating through a concrete ocean and the 'pods' of tables were little collections of 8′ islands. Soon, we were directed to our tables and much to our irritation, we weren't set up together as we had previously asked. So, we separated…I went to my table toward the back of the room and the others toward the front. And that was pretty much the last time I saw them until the end of the show…(It all ended up working out very well for us.)
When planning the trip to this show I had invited Kim Baerg, a puppet builder friend to join me at my table. Kim has created a plush version of my Spencer character and now we're in talks about creating smaller, finger puppet versions as well as other items to tie into Best In Show. Anyhoo, she brought her husband Brad and their three kids for the weekend. Kim did a great job promoting her workshop Joy Filled Puppets and also helped direct people to me. She was a lot of fun to talk to and her family was a joy to have around.
The doors opened at 9am. It was pretty quiet and I'll admit, I got a little nervous but since this wasn't my first rodeo, I talked myself down. See, there's a bell curve when it comes to comicon sales. When the doors open, nobody's spending money because they're still seeing what's out there. By about 11am, they've seen everything and come around for the spending trip. Luckily, I've been learning a lot of tricks and using a lot of tools to get people to spend that money on me. Things like BEING NICE. Talking to people as they walk by. Handing out 'Welcome Back' cards that offer a free gift if they come back and buy something. That kind of stuff.
Well, it worked.
The fanboys and fangirls of Des Moines were into spending money! There were a couple of return customers…Craig has sketch books that he likes to fill at comicons and he always finds me. Ivan has been to see me at every show. I met Ryan at FallCon and when I told him that I was going to be at I-Con, he said he'd be there. I sold a ton of sketch cards. I was chatting up the 'exclusive' variant cover and posters. I was commissioned to do custom sketch cards. It was non-stop until almost 3pm! I had to ask my commissioners to come back…more than once! Of course, I hooked them up with some swag for making them wait…
There was even time for an interview with the con promotion video crew which ended up in a six minute video (look for me at abou the 3:57 mark):
As per the comicon bell curve, by about 3pm the faucet is pretty much turned off. Everybody blew through their cash. I was actually exhausted (remember that I work alone, and having talked all day pretty much wore me out.) What is left by that time are the last remnants of the crowd and the creators themselves trolling around for a bargain. 5pm brought the end of the show and packing up before another 3 1/2 hour trip back to the Twin Cities.
All told, this was the most successful one-day show that I've ever attended. Are you guys seeing a trend here? Well, for those that didn't have their coffee the trend is that each show that I attend is usually more successful than the last. And that's a wonderful trend! Will I travel to Des Moines next year for I-Con 2015? Absolutely!
One of the coolest things about this particular show was the level of family-friendliness. There were kids everywhere and I tried to talk with all of them! I even traded one boy, Frankie, a mini coloring book for an original Captain America sketch. It was a great deal.
In closing, traveling to this show knowing it was in a transitional period was a huge risk. I'd be lying if I said that the four of us that drove down to Des Moines, paid for gas and lodging on top of the table fee, weren't apprehensive. Lucky for us, the people of Des Moines are solid supporters of quality comics and Scott Wirth and company made good on their promise to put on the best show possible. It's a helluva way to wrap up our comicon season.
Below are some of the awesome fans that made our trip worthwhile:

When I went to the Moon…the presence of divinity became almost palpable and I knew that life in the universe was not just an accident based on random processes. The knowledge came to me directly—noetically. It was knowledge gained through subjective awareness.
– Edgar Mitchell
Create your own sacred rhythm by sitting in silence, walking our labyrinth, or communing with nature.
The sacred energy of the land, once inhabited by the Miwok Indians, can be felt as you gaze out over rolling hills and soaring vistas, observe foraging deer, listen to the mating songs of wild turkeys, or meditate in one of the fragrant, natural cathedrals canopied by ancient coast live oaks, buckeye, and bay trees.

Jean Houston has held retreats at EarthRise for many years. In this 3 minute video she shares why she is passionate about EarthRise and IONS.
There are no words to describe how amazing this past weekend was...Everything was splendid, and the energy and enthusiasm with which you all made our event so spectacular was VERY apparent.
There is a Hebrew word "Dayenu," often said at Passover, which translates loosely to "It would have been enough." My mother said this to me over the weekend, and I think it rings true. "Had EarthRise offered only it's amazing natural beauty, Dayenu!" Our wedding would have been fantastic with only the gorgeous setting of the EarthRise property.... but you all made it so much more.
—All our best, Jonah & Julia
This is an awesome facility – the energetics are balanced and so supportive of the work we embraced. The food is exquisite and personnel supportive and very service oriented. Thank you/Mahalo.
—Rick McDonald
The Retreat Center is beautiful. The staff were so friendly and accommodating to our needs We all especially enjoyed & appreciated the loving care that went into creating delicious feasts for each meal. They were all individuals communicating from the hearts.

Do not go with this company! by Michelle2010 - 10/08/2012
I am very disappointed in A Plus Benefits. I have given them a lot of business and I have worked with them for 4 years. Watch out their rates increase significantly year over year. Also something to watch out for is their surgery policy and many little hidden health addendum's. Not to mention the Cobra situation they have. There were some really important medical things going on in a few employees lives and they do not send you a bill for cobra and if you are 1-2 days late you will be cut off. They give you no warning. And on Cobra they deny a lot of bills so even though you are paying for it they really don't care. I strongly suggest not going with this company. And if I could give 0 Stars I would!
A Plus benefits is great by April - 08/22/2012
I own a small business with 5 employees and A Plus has been wonderful. Their prices and fees are lower than most other companies and the health insurance is really great. They do require the employer to pay for the full-time employee's health insurance just like all the other hr companies. I recently had to fire a long term employee and they helped us through the process and even helped us fight the unemployment claim. They are worth every penny.
Excellent Service and Great Benefit Options by Loveless - 04/10/2012
A Plus Benefits has worked wonders for our company and employees; they are very easy to work with and have helped our company with a large variety of needs. I read the other two reviews and decided that they were written by 12 year old minded employees who were most likely lied to by their own employer.
stick it to them by d - 07/08/2010
jenkins i read your review you should sue
Terrible by Neil Jenkins - 10/22/2009
They hook you with the ease of a remote HR department and then stick it to you with a scam of a health insurance option. Misrepresented their coverage to my employer and now I am stuck paying a ton out of pocket for a medically necessary procedure. Do your self a favor and stay away.

I applied online for one of the positions available on the website as a Programmer Analyst for Mainframe.I was contacted by one of the Staffing recruiters of the company, and discussed previous experience and skill-sets over the phone and was told the information provided will be forwarded to the hiring manager. Afterwards, it was difficult getting in contact with the recruiter since she was out of her office for quite some time. A few weeks later, she contacted me and told me the hiring manager was interested in moving forward so we set up an onsite interview after New Years. The day of the interview, I met with the Vice President of Product Development and Director of Development on the Jersey City location; conducted in the office of the Vice President. The interview was very conversational, they asked me a few questions on my work experience, a few behavioral questions, and a more in-depth description/responsibilities of the position and work environment. The Vice President and Director were very friendly and engaging. Great personalities, very team-oriented environment. Must say, it was not difficult at all; I was asked no technical questions. Since interview was very conversational, they actually wanted/allowed me to ask questions during the interview process which turned out to be good (I was ready with a few). The interview lasted approximately 45 minutes. I was told they will contact me if they decided to offer me the position.Interview Questions

Give These Guys a Hand!
If you're a fan of I Love Lucy and who isn't? the socks at the Sock Puppet Sitcom Theater have got some 'splaining to do. Puppet producer Mark Hayward and two others who go by the names Glamour Puss and Frenchie opened the theater company last month, reinterpreting the pilot episode of Three's Company using nothing but cloth, buttons and pipe cleaners. Tonight, everyone's favorite redheaded screwball Lucy (Alicyn Packard), her Cuban bandleader husband Ricky (Charley Knapp) and their nosy neighbors, Fred (Keith Ferguson) and Ethel (Wilder Smith), will be reincarnated in I Love Lucy's first aired episode in which the girls try and convince the boys to go to a nightclub for the Mertz's wedding anniversary. (Maybe in the future they'll go to Hollywood and steal John Wayne's footprints.) The show is preceded by a sock puppet Edward R. Murrow and sock puppet period TV commercials, as well as live music. The company performs monthly the pilot episodes of other classic comedies, including Friends, Hogan's Heroes, Roseanne and The Golden Girls. Sock puppets eating cheesecake? We'd like to see them try. Atwater Crossing Performance Lounge, 3245 Casitas Ave., Atwater Village; Wed., May 16, 8:30 p.m.; $10 in advance, $12 at the door. (323) 284-8265 or sockpuppetsitcomtheater.com.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHoliday Inn Express - Sault Ste. Marie Sault Ste. Marie
It was very clean and the staff were very friendly. The elevator was small but was being fixed. The halls were very narrow and noisy but the rooms were very quiet.
This review is the subjective opinion of a TravelPod member and not of TravelPod.com.
We stayed here as a stopping point on our way to the West Coast. The location is perfect as it is located across from both the hockey arena and also Station Mall, which is where the Agawa Canyon tour train starts. It is also close to a number of restaurants. The hotel has been recently renovated and everything was clean. The only drawback was the price a bit high, but within market prices for the area.

Soo Locks
... unique experience that cannot be seen anywhere else in the United States! The Locks consist of two canals and four locks that allow vessels of many types/sizes to safely traverse the 21-foot drop in elevation of the St. Mary's River between Lake Superior and Lakes Michigan and Huron. From viewing decks, you can watch "Lakers" and "Salties" (ocean-going vessels) as they travel the seaway between ports and navigate the rise/drop of the water levels.

Here's Beaker with the baby guinea pigs on him.
Note: we never, ever leave the piggies alone with the cats. Although the cats seem fine with the pigs, cats are still hunters and guinea pigs are still rodents.
LoreleiWeb, denny.lyon, and 20 other people added this photo to their favorites.
Are you serious? Your cats don't go after the guineas? This picture is great!
This cat in particular is very mellow, and his hunting instinct is basically "are you going to pour me some food now?"
We had a guinea pig named Tribble when I was a kid. We also had a dog. Tribble used to roam freely (she would always use the bathroom on a littler pan we put out for her) and our dog loved her like she was her own. It's nice your cats are so mellow.
i love how the tan guinea pig blends into the cat!
Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Cat-A-Log, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
That is precious !
Hey there! I'm an admin from a group called I Love Pets and your pet picture is very cute! We'd love to have it included in the photostream!
O my how cute! The cat looks just like our Buttercup! : )
Oh wow i love this!
Our long haired cat is also so popular among the piggies. lol

No the check engine light does not come on when it starts to cut out. It has new spark plugs and wires on it. Every time it starts missing the tachometer quits working and goes to zero. Is it possible that the camshaft sensor or crank shaft sensor also operates the tachometer I have been fighting this problem for about two years now.

It wasn't just innovation, but rather research and clear communication, that impressed the judges, the winning company's CEO said.
Denver's on the right track for creating communities that cater to the live-work-play lifestyle, but the city's still got some ground to cover, a study says.
Proctor is among three honorees by the University of Colorado Denver's Wirth Chair series recognizing work in the areas of energy and sustainable development
Denver's Stapleton area is in danger of becoming just like every other auto-oriented development, the study said.
The Downtown Denver Partnership challenged students at the University of Colorado Denver to create alternative uses for alleyways, and they came up with some amazing ideas.
Colorado has become a leader in producing energy — and also in addressing how to balance energy production with the state's renowned quality of life.
Colorado may be far from major coastal cities and ports, but the state has much to offer the world's energy markets, panelists said at the fourth annual Energy-Moving Forward forum in Denver.
The nation is ahead of the global curve due to a belief in one simple word: entrepreneurialism, according to Philip Verleger, president and founder of Carbondale-based PKVerleger LLC.
The state's skills in producing and exporting energy draw attention — and so do residents' concerns over fracking.

OpenLDAP Everywhere Reloaded, Part I
One last note on the DHCP failover protocol: if you have more devices on one subnet than 50% of the overall amount available in the pool range, seriously consider re-engineering your network before implementing DHCP failover.
The protocol inherently relies on having an excess of free addresses
to allocate, even after the pool range is cut in half by
The maximum amount of available IP addresses for DHCP in a C Class subnet most of the time is 253 (255 addresses, minus 1 address for broadcast, minus 1 address for the router).
If you have more than 126 devices within one failover subnet, either split it into more subnets (for example, one subnet for each floor of the building), or use a larger subnet than C Class. Configure the subnet declaration in /etc/dhcpd.conf to increase its pool range accordingly. It will save you problems later on.
Now that the DHCP servers are configured with failover pools, the final thing to do is configure the 192.168.3.0/24 and 192.168.4.0/24 to forward DHCP client broadcasts through the LAN/WAN to 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.2.10.
This is done on router03.example.com with IP Helper addresses. On linux03.example.com, it's done with ISC's DHCP Relay Agent.
Assume router03.example.com is a Cisco Catalyst Multi-layer
Switch. Configure IP Helper addresses by entering privileged mode
(run the
enable command). Using the
helper-address command,
apply the two DHCP server IP addresses to the router interface that has
the 192.168.3.1/24 address. On the Catalyst 3750G in my lab, this is
interface "vlan20". The commands are applied like so:
router03#show running-config
Building configuration...
--- output suppressed ---
interface Vlan20
description linuxjournal_vlan
ip address 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0
--- output suppressed ---
router03#configure terminal
router03(config)#interface vlan 20
router03(config-if)#ip helper-address 192.168.1.10
router03(config-if)#ip helper-address 192.168.2.10
router03#copy running-config startup-config
Destination filename [startup-config]?
Building configuration...
0 bytes copied in 8.715 secs (0 bytes/sec)
router03#show running-config interface vlan 20
Building configuration...
Current configuration : 154 bytes
interface Vlan20
description linuxjournal_vlan
ip address 192.168.3.1 255.255.255.0
ip helper-address 192.168.1.10
ip helper-address 192.168.2.10
On linux03.example.com, you need to install the isc-debian-relay package. Once it's installed, it will ask for the "multiple server names be provided as a space-separated list". Enter "linux01.example.com linux02.example.com", or if this host isn't configured to resolve from our DNS server pair, "192.168.1.10 192.168.2.10". It will ask on which interface to listen. If you have no preference, leave it blank and press Enter. It will ask you to specify additional options, but you simply can press Enter.
If you make a mistake, you can reconfigure by running the command
dpkg-reconfigure isc-dhcp-relay or modify the
SERVERS variable in
Your DHCP clients now should be able to contact either DHCP server.
In Part II of this series, I'll explain how to configure OpenLDAP on the two Linux servers and start to populate the directory with data.

Undeniably imagine that that you said. Your favourite justification appeared to
be at the net the simplest factor to have in mind of.
I say to you, I certainly get annoyed even as people consider issues that they plainly
do not recognise about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest
as well as outlined out the entire thing with no need side
effect , other folks can take a signal. Will likely
be again to get more. Thank you

School district faces backlash over salary proposal
The Superior School Board met with backlash this week after unveiling a plan to eliminate salary schedules for support staff and administration employees.
About 50 people — many of them school district employees — attended Monday's meeting to speak against the proposed changes.
The proposal includes two elements: a salary adjustment for employees and the elimination of salary schedules, which provide employees with annual step increases.

Pine Lads Best Farmers
The Lanai boys' basketball team topped Molokai twice over the weekend, beating the Farmers 57-38 on Friday and 64-45 on Saturday to end the regular season.
On Friday the Farmers stayed in step with the Pine Lads and were only down 38-37 after three quarters. However, the Pine Lads outscored them 19-1 in the final quarter for the large win. On Saturday the Farmers did the opposite, bringing in 19 points in the fourth quarter, though it wasn't enough to beat the Pine Lads' consistent offensive performance throughout the game.
Edel-Marc Alvarez's 13 points led the charge for the Farmers on Friday, and Kaina Adolpho was the top scorer on Saturday with 11 points.…

Epidural or not?

Contractions are like the worst menstral cramps. As the baby pushes down, your hips feel like they might break. As your contractions get longer and closer together, you get tired. This is usually when ppl ask for the epidural. Your contractions slow down and get much less intense when it is time to push. The moment of crowning is described like a ring of fire. Your body will know when to push, but push hard like you are constipated. Be prepared that your baby will go back in while you rest. The dr will stretch your perinium to prevent tearing and that is very painful. If you tear, if feels like the sting of a bad paper cut. After the head is through, you will feel better and then the shoulders hurt again. The afterbirth comes out in a rush and it is actually relieving. They will massage your tummy and pull out the placenta. If they don't have it all they will push on your tummy and that hurts. It is the most painful thing I have experienced, but awesome. Good luck!posted 08/24/2010 by jdepriest
hi i have two boys had them both naturally with pethadine in second stage i m pregnant with third thinking of epidural but scared of risks ? what r the risks for a mother and a baby? My first delivery was problem free but with second only 4 hours after i had a baby i had post delivery bleeding with painful contractions unknown cause ended up on blood transfusion.posted 08/22/2010 by soniagregoriou
That's one opinion, and your welcome to it. But I'm all for the natural if that's what a woman feels like doing. I've done it twice and it's amazing. It definitely isn't something that needs to be 'stood up to' Just do whatever You want, and let others do whatever they want. It's not like you should feel bad if you get an epidural or if you don't. You're giving birth to a human being and that's amazing! There are reasons to get an epidural. And there are plenty of reasons not to. It's not a matter of 'punishment' It's just that our bodies really are capable (most times) of giving birth without all the intervention. And actually, there IS research and data to support the idea that epidurals aren't perfect... like any medication or treatment... Just do what you feel is right and let everyone else do so as well. Don't worry about it. It's not like anyone will take away Your epidural! But I don't ever want one if I can help it. :)posted 08/11/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
I gave birth to 9 pound 5 oz child without any drugs. Pain was terrible. BUT I think if I am in the labor more than 12 hours - I would ask epidural.posted 08/10/2010 by FKK
I am expecting my first child and like any first time mother-to-be, I am terrified of the mere thought of the actual labor process. Do I know I will get through it? Yes. But, that doesn't change the fact that I still fear venturing into the "great unknown." I thought I would read first-hand accounts from both perspectives that would help to ease my fears. However, after reading some of these posts, I feel even more terrified, horrible that I am even considering the option of an epidural and somewhat perturbed by the women on here who have the audacity to condemn anyone for taking pain medication to help ease labor pains. Yes, women have been giving birth naturally for years so it can be done, but women have also died or had serious complications during the birthing process, as well. Let's just celebrate the fact that we have options these days and agree that everyone has a different threshold of pain. That does NOT make them less of a woman.posted 07/22/2010 by leannejohnson78
You just have to appreciate that everybodies births are different. Some have very straight forward births that run on time and others are past their due dates, packed to the gunnels with induction drugs so when they take effect it can be 0 - 100 in the space of a few hours, then you have an epidural as the pain is too much (probably over done the induction drips and gels etc) and the epidural slows everything back down again and you end up having a c-section. My first baby was a terrible birth ending up in non progression, foetal distress, epidural didn't fully work so I felt cutting during the c-section so they gave me a general and I woke up feeling terrible and in a lot of pain! It is always nice to go to the hospital with some sort of idea of a birth plan, but lots of times that never goes to plan and you need to go with the flow. This time round I am going to try for a VBAC naturally & I will not go for an epidural. The last one gave me non-progression & back problems!posted 07/20/2010 by NovMum2B
all my 4 pregnatcys were drug free, and not by choice! I have had fast labors under 2 hrs so i was too far to ever get any pain meds. I remeber wanting them badly and crying in pain. it is unbearable, but you can and will get threw it. I don't think I could of gone hrs more than I did. most people are in labor for over 12 hrs. So I can't speak for people that have gone all day in labor. you always have an option to to try w/out and if it gets to be too much and if your not too far dialated they can give it to u then.posted 07/17/2010 by ilovemybigfamily
that all depends on how much pain u can take.With it being a first u might bin labor 10-12 hrs and u arent gonna want to b miserable...posted 07/10/2010 by sddccs
I had my first child naturally i was 3 days past my due date and my doctor decided to induce me i was in so much pain yet i still decided notto have an epidural after 13 hours of labor i brought my son in to the world and was glad i did it naturallyposted 07/01/2010 by memphis_finest_1807
If you do it all natural no one is going to give you some trophy or award. In the end you still get the same baby. You have to think about how much you like to be in pain? You can choose to have a pain free delivery where you are watching this miracle and able to enjoy it. Or you can feel the most aweful pain you could ever imagine, you really feel like you want to die! You might even ask to. Epiderals are very safe, millions of women get them every year without a problem. This is 2010 why not take advantage of modern medicine and make the birth of your baby as painless as possible. Have you ever heard of a person who said there life was ruined because their mother had an epideral or a little pain medicine during delivery? I have not. A lot of women go into this thinking they are going to be some hero and go all natural, but trust me most all of them change their mind after 12 hours of the most horrible pain imaginable. Ask women who have had multiple children!posted 06/27/2010 by heidievaj

Help keep your Children Safe this Spring
With Spring now upon us GMFRS are raising awareness and warning parents and guardians to the common dangers faced by young children on the run up to the summer months. Each year we attend an increased number of incidents involving young children, sadly quite often these incidents end in tragedy. Adventurous children often place themselves in danger without realising the potential consequences. Please follow the simple guidance below;
- FIRES - Always keep matches and lighters away from children. As the weather improves and the things start to dry out, children setting fire to rubbish and grass can result in fire crews attending incidents that not only damage the natural and local environment, but potentially prevents fire crews from attending more serious life threatening fires.
- WATER AWARENESS - Make sure your children are aware of the dangers of swimming in canals, ponds and rivers. The temperature of inland water does not vary much throughout the year. The water in Britain is still very cold in the spring and summer people can quickly become affected by the cold putting themselves into difficulties, tragically too many children drown every year. Swimming should always be confined to a supervised pool with life guards.
- DANGEROUS BUILDINGS - Children climbing onto factory roofs and other buildings put themselves in great danger; all too often this results in the fire service attending a fatal incident to assist paramedics in gaining access to buildings where children have fallen through the roof.
- MALICIOUS CALLS - Know where your children are this Spring - Hoax calls tend to increase during the spring and summer months, remember hoax calls cost lives! A fire engine cannot be in two places at one time. If we are responding to a hoax call it means we may be delayed in responding to a life threatening emergency.

- ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR – Spring time is historically a time of increased demand upon the services of Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Services. Do You Know What Your Children Are Doing? For further advice and information CLICK HERE
- BARBECUE SAFETY - Barbecues should be a safe and enjoyable experience but it's all too easy to be distracted when you have friends and family around you whilst cooking. So be prepared by reading our essential barbeque tips for staying safe. For further advice and information CLICK HERE
- ROAD SAFETY - The age group most at 'Risk' of being injured on the roads as a pedestrian are children aged between 5 - 14 years of age, with the highest casualty rates occurring with children aged 12. Children are also at risk of being killed or injured on the roads as cyclists. Walking and cycling should continue to be promoted as healthy, enjoyable activities. The challenge is to give children the skills, understanding and confidence to deal with roads and traffic safely. As a minimum please ensure your children know how to cross the road safely, have taken a cycling proficiency course and always wear a seat belt when travelling in a car. ALL cyclists should wear a properly fitted cycle helmet.

Product description
An ordinary snapshot causes a mother's world to unravel in an instant. After picking up her two young children from school, Grace Lawson looks through a newly developed set of photographs. She finds an odd one in the pack: a mysterious picture from perhaps twenty years ago, showing four strangers she can't identify. But there is one face she recognizes--that of her husband, from before she knew him. When her husband sees the photo that night, he leaves their home and drives off without explanation. She doesn't know where he's going, or why he's leaving. Or if he's ever coming back. Nor does she realize how dangerous the search for him will be. Because there are others interested in both her husband's past and that photo, including Eric Wu: a fierce, silent killer who will not be stopped from finding his quarry, no matter who or what stands in his way. Her world turned upside down, filled with doubts about her herself and marriage, Grace must confront the dark corners of her own tragic past she struggles to learn the truth, find her husband, and save her family.
