text: I agree. If my steak came out grey rather than my preferred dripping pink, that is obviously the kitchen's mistake and the server should not be held accountable (unless he/she refuses to return the item). However, not noticing that your customer is sitting at their table without food is the server's job and it is the server's responsibility to figure out why there is no food. Problem solving and then telling the customer what happened would earn the tip. Ignoring it till the customer brings it up and then blaming somebody else; sorry, no tip. I have worked corporate, commissioned sales. It was my job to stay on top of all aspects of the sale to make sure the sale went through. As the link to all the departments involved, it was my job to follow up continuously to make sure all the pieces fell in place for the customer. If the sale did not happen, no commission. My boss would not come to me and say "Oh sorry, you were too busy to follow up on that sale, but we will give you the commission anyway." Mistakes in life can sometimes cost you. One thing, you rarely make that mistake again.

Arizona Cardinals
Cardinals backup quarterback Drew Stanton makes most of preseason opportunity
Make no mistake, there is no quarterback competition when it comes to the Arizona Cardinals these days.
Carson Palmer, who went 4-of-6 for 77 yards and a touchdown Friday night, will be the Week 1 starter regardless of what transpires -- outside of an injury -- during the preseason.
But backup Drew Stanton's performance in the Cardinals' preseason opener against the Green Bay Packers was still impressive in its own right.
While he was going up against Mike McCarthy's second-team defense, the 29-year-old looked comfortable both in the pocket and outside it.
On his first series, Stanton led Arizona on an eight-play, 52-yard drive highlighted by a beautiful 36-yard connection with Charles Hawkins and a one-yard touchdown strike to Jalen Brown.
In all, Stanton played four offensive series and went 8-of-14 for 107 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed the ball twice for eight yards.
Stanton, who is now with his fourth NFL team, signed a three-year, $8.2 million contract with the Cardinals back in March 2013.

Urgent: Wordpress Theme Install
Closed - This job posting has been filled and work has been completed.
Job Description
I am building a website, with very little experience. I am trying to install a theme, with seemingly very good documentation; however, I am struggling to connect the dots.
The Theme URI is: http://demo.joomlaxtc.com/wordpres
The documentation can be found at:
Per the documentation, there is a Quick Install that reads as follows:
"ThemeXTC Quickstart Themes Editions are custom Wordpress Installation Packages which automatically installs the latest version of Wordpress, our Theme with the demo content and the needed extensions: plugins and widgets, all with the same configuration than the demo of the theme. In other words, by installing a Quickstart you get the same look and functionality that you see in our demos."
Can someone help me with this fix? My need is urgent, but documentation seems rather straight forward - apparently, I am not smart enough.

Commonly: Refreshing the Public Domain
Last week, indie videogame designer Nick Liow launched the Open Game Art Bundle. It's a simple idea: independent videogame designers contribute game assets – animations, soundtracks, character designs – and customers can pay any price they want to access them. Nick describes it as a sort of cross between Kickstarter and Humble Bundle, and like Humble Indie Bundle, the income is split between the developers themselves and charities (including Creative Commons). But there's one big twist: if the bundle reaches its goal of $10,000 by July 15, all assets will become public domain under the CC0 public domain declaration.
This is actually the third bundle Nick has put out under the brand Commonly. It's the most ambitious bundle to date, but it's really just the beginning. What Nick's really interested in isn't just about videogames; it's about changing how people think about the public domain. I met up with him a few days ago to chat about videogames, public domain, and the open source movement.
We also talked about the increasing rift in the videogame world between the indie developers like himself and the high-budget, "Triple A" games of the big-name studios. There's been a lot of talk recently about the videogame industry's occasional tone-deafness to issues like race and sexuality. Nick told me that he sees a parallel conflict over issues like intellectual property and digital rights management (DRM). While many young developers like Nick share his opinions, some big-name developers are sticking to what he sees as a more old-fashioned view.
"The triple-A industry has to reach out to as massive an audience as possible," Nick said. "They close things off because they can't afford the risk. You notice that indie games tend to be for a more a more open ecosystem. With the Humble Indie Bundle, "DRM-Free" is a part of their tag line. Indie games go with the more open ecosystems… while triple-A's create their own walled gardens with game consoles." And, he was quick to add, "The iPhone counts as a [closed] console."
Nick recently moved to the San Francisco Bay Area – he'll be here for the next two years as a part of the Thiel Fellowship. "You have to have a big vision [for the fellowship]," he told me, "and my big vision was a thriving public domain."
He originally applied for the fellowship with his project Craftyy, an open source game-development platform and social network. Although the Thiel judges liked Nick's ideas, "It wasn't clear to them how Craftyy would lead to a thriving public domain." That was when Nick started to shift to the idea of crowdfunding for public domain creative works. He told me that his plan for the next two years is to expand the Commonly concept beyond the world of videogame developers into the broader creative community. I can't wait to see where Commonly goes next and what awesome stuff it brings into the public domain with it.

#cc10 Featured Platform: Europeana
Throughout the #cc10 celebrations, we're highlighting different CC-enabled media platforms, to show the breadth and diversity of the CC world. Today, as we're talking about governmental and institutional adoption of CC tools, it seemed appropriate to discuss Europeana, the massive digital library of European history and culture.
For people who get excited about open cultural data, one of the most exciting moments of 2012 came in September, when Europeana announced that it was releasing its metadata to the public domain under the CC0 waiver. This release of 20 million records represents one of the largest one-time dedications of cultural data to the public domain.
While the data was previously available through the Europeana website, dedicating it to the public domain multiplies its usability. From the press release:
This release, which is by far the largest one-time dedication of cultural data to the public domain using CC0 offers a new boost to the digital economy, providing electronic entrepreneurs with opportunities to create innovative apps and games for tablets and smartphones and to create new web services and portals.
Comments Off
Europeana's move to CC0 is a step change in open data access. Releasing data from across the memory organisations of every EU country sets an important new international precedent, a decisive move away from the world of closed and controlled data.
Europeana releases 20 million records into the public domain using CC0
This week marks a momentous occasion, as Europeana — Europe's digital library — has released 20 million records into the public domain using the CC0 Public Domain Dedication. This release is the largest one-time dedication of cultural data to the public domain using CC0. The Europeana dataset consists of descriptive information from a huge trove of digitized cultural and artistic works. Now, per the Europeana Terms of Use, "all metadata (textual information on digitised cultural heritage) on the site are published without any restrictions on re-use." The public domain data can be useful for cultural institutions, researchers, and application developers. By removing all copyright restrictions from the data, Europeana helps to promote innovation and economic activity. From the press release:
Importantly, the change represents a valuable contribution to the European Commission's agenda to drive growth through digital innovation. Online open data is a core resource which can fuel enterprise and create opportunities for millions of Europeans working in Europe's cultural and creative industries. The sector represents 3.3% of EU GDP and is worth over €150 billion in exports.
Europeana's announcement was praised by Neelie Kroes, Vice-President of the European Commission, who said:
Open data is such a powerful idea, and Europeana is such a cultural asset, that only good things can result from the marriage of the two. People often speak about closing the digital divide and opening up culture to new audiences but very few can claim such a big contribution to those efforts as Europeana's shift to creative commons.
The Creative Commons Affiliate teams in the Netherlands and Luxembourg, through partner organizations Institute for Information Law (IViR), Kennisland, and the Bibliothèque nationale de Luxembourg provided expert support to Europeana during this process. Europeana has been at the forefront of exploring ways to share the European cultural record. They are one of the first adopters of CC's Public Domain Mark and continue to support a vibrant, healthy public domain.5 Comments »
Library catalog metadata: Open licensing or public domain?
As reported a few weeks ago, OCLC has recommended that its member libraries adopt the Open Data Commons Attribution license (ODC-BY) when they share their library catalog data online. The recommendation to use an open license like ODC-BY is a positive step forward for OCLC because it helps communicate in advance the rights and responsibilities available to potential users of bibliographic metadata from library catalogs. But the decision by OCLC to recommend the licensing route — as opposed to releasing bibliographic metadata into the public domain — raises concerns that warrants more discussion.
OCLC says that making library data derived from WorldCat available under an open license like ODC-BY complies with their community norms. There are other options, however, that are equally compliant. Harvard Library, for example, developed an agreement with OCLC earlier this year that makes its metadata available under the CC0 Public Domain Dedication. This means that Harvard relinquishes all its copyright and related rights to that data, thereby enabling the widest variety of downstream reuse. Even though it puts this information into the public domain, Harvard requests that users provide attribution to the source as a best practice without making attribution a legally binding requirement through a license.
There are good reasons for relying on community norms for metadata attribution instead of requiring it as a condition of a licensing agreement. The requirement to provide attribution through a contract like ODC-BY is not well-suited to a world where data are combined and remixed from multiple sources and under a variety of licenses and other use restrictions. For example, the library community is experimenting with new technologies like linked data as a means of getting more value from its decades-long collective investment in cataloging data. And we're happy to see that OCLC has released a million WorldCat records containing 80 million linked data triples in RDF. However, we believe that requiring attribution as a licensing condition introduces complexity that will make it technically difficult — if not impossible — for users to comply.
Then there is the question of how to properly attach attribution information to a discrete bit of data (e.g. a single field, subfield, or triple). OCLC has helpfully provided guidelines around attribution for its linked data, but how would these work for member libraries that follow OCLC's recommendation to adopt the ODC-BY license when they publish their own data? Library linked data collections are often derived from small subsets of many large collections and recombined with new relationships, potentially requiring separate attribution for each data element. In the case of OCLC's data release, imagine that a user downloads the OCLC file containing 80 million linked data triples, extracts the ones she's interested in, and then links them to her own catalog data to create a new linked dataset. The guidelines for the WorldCat data include the option of considering a WorldCat URI to be sufficient attribution, but how would that work for the library's own bibliographic data or for additional data drawn from non-OCLC sources? The guidelines do not include recommendations for how libraries should implement their own data in such a way that reusers can comply with the attribution requirements imposed by the ODC-BY license. The community norms and best practices for reusing library linked data are not yet well defined, so relying on them in the context of a legally binding license is troubling.
Another question arises about the scope of the ODC-BY license with its focus on European database rights in addition to copyright — database rights that do not apply in the U.S. and that cover the database in its entirety but not its contents, making it uncertain whether it can be applied to a simple file of bibliographic data. And the question of whether copyright applies at all to bibliographic data, given its mainly factual nature, is doubtful and differs depending on legal jurisdiction. While the ODC-BY license may make good sense for OCLC to apply to WorldCat itself, it would be a questionable choice for a U.S. library that is looking to share some of its catalog data as a downloadable file.
Moreover, because most countries outside of the European Union — including the United States — do not grant protection to non-creative databases, the ODC-BY license does not operate except at best as a contractual restriction on those downloading directly from the licensor's website. So this restriction, which is not based on any underlying exclusive property right, is unlikely to bind reusers that do not obtain the data directly from the original data provider. The absence of a binding contract coupled with the lack of any underlying property right means licensors may be surprised to learn they do not have a strong and effective remedy such as a claim of infringement against those downstream users. This is a known concern with the Open Database License, ODC-BY's sister license that has the same license + contract design feature. Thus, the license in many instances simply will not protect the library that shared the data, or OCLC, in the manner they expect.
Another more general concern about using a licence to share bibliographic metadata has to do with its technical feasibility. This is evident in the Model language that OCLC recommends, which includes links to the WCRR Record Use Policy (WorldCat Rights and Responsibilities), community norms and an FAQ. Following these links takes readers to pages with yet more information about the requirements expected for members and non-members. The concern is not so much the opaqueness of the rules, but that they may become linked to a great number of records which have nothing to do with OCLC. For example, many members may only have started fairly recently to re-use records from OCLC, yet in the model language no distinction is made between OCLC and non-OCLC sourced records, again, because there is no feasible technical solution to differentiate between these. The result: attribution is (wrongly) given to OCLC for the whole database, and a large number of OCLC principles linked to the library database's complete contents. While the ODC-BY and WCRR may well be well-intentioned instruments to turn the WorldCat data into a "Common Pool Resource" for OCLC members, it certainly lacks the technical solutions to demarcate where it begins and ends, potentially resulting in confusion and overreaching requirements for members that try to comply. Fundamentally, this begs the question whether library records shouldn't just be public goods released into the public domain.
For all of the above reasons, cultural institutions including The British Library, Europeana, the University of Michigan Library, Harvard and others have adopted the CC0 Public Domain Dedication for publishing their catalog data online. From this, we see that a truly normative approach for the library community would be a public domain dedication such as CC0, coupled with requests to provide attribution to the source (e.g. OCLC) to the extent possible. Such an approach would maximize experimentation and innovation with the cataloging data, in keeping with the mission and values of the library community, while respecting the investment of OCLC and the library community in this valuable resource.

Musician Dan Bull reaches #9 on UK indie charts using CC0
Dan bull / Tim Dobson / CC BY-SA
Indie musician Dan Bull released "Sharing is Caring" into the public domain using CC0. Recently, "Sharing is Caring" reached #9 on the UK independent chart and #35 on the UK R&B Chart. Creative Commons United Kingdom interviewed Dan about why he chose to release his music for free:
"It's up to the individual musician what they want to do and it depends on their principles. In the past I have gone the way of having no licensing on my music at all, or where licensing is necessary, I make it known that I have no problem personally with people copying or remixing the music. If you want to encourage fans to engage with your music, re-interpret it and redistribute it on your behalf, then Creative Commons is a good direction to look in."
For those who don't know, CC0 is not a license, but a universal public domain dedication that may be used by anyone wishing to permanently surrender the copyright they may have in a work, thereby placing it as nearly as possible into the public domain. As far as we know, Dan is the first musician to break into top music charts with music that is free from copyright restrictions. Let us know if we're wrong!

Government and Library Open Data using Creative Commons tools
The last few months has seen a growth in open data, particularly from governments and libraries. Among the more recent open data adopters are the Austrian government, Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research, Italian Chamber of Deputies, and Harvard Library.
Open data / opensourceway / CC BY-SA
The Austrian government has launched an open data portal with much of its data available under CC BY. The portal's terms of use states that CC BY is recommended for open data, and that such data will be indicated as CC BY in the data description.
The Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research launched its Open Data Portal under CC BY, publishing the data of Italian schools (such as address, phone number, web site, administrative code), students (number, gender, performance), and teachers (number, gender, retirement, etc.). The Ministry aims to make all of its data eventually available and open for reuse, in order to improve transparency, aid in the understanding of the Italian scholastic system, and promote the creation of new tools and services for students, teachers and families.
The Italian Chamber of Deputies has also developed a platform for publishing linked open data under CC BY-SA.
Lastly, Harvard Library in the U.S. has released 12 million catalog records into the public domain using the CC0 public domain dedication tool. The move is in accordance with Harvard Library's Open Metadata Policy. The policy's FAQ states,
"With the CC0 public domain designation, Harvard waives any copyright and related rights it holds in the metadata. We believe that this will help foster wide use and yield developments that will benefit the library community and the public."
Harvard's press release cites additional motivations for opening its data,
John Palfrey, Chair of the DPLA, said, "With this major contribution, developers will be able to start experimenting with building innovative applications that put to use the vital national resource that consists of our local public and research libraries, museums, archives and cultural collections." He added that he hoped that this would encourage other institutions to make their own collection metadata publicly available.
We are excited that CC tools are being used for open data. For questions related to CC and data, see our FAQ about data, which also links to many more governments, libraries, and organizations that have opened their data.2 Comments »
Nature Publishing Group releases publication data for more than 450,000 articles via CC0
Ideal Knot final rendering / Matt Biddulph / CC BY-SA
Yesterday, Nature Publishing Group announced the launch of a new linked data platform, providing access to "20 million Resource Description Framework (RDF) statements, including primary metadata for more than 450,000 articles published by NPG since 1869. The datasets include basic citation information (title, author, publication date, etc) as well as NPG specific ontologies." All datasets are published using the CC0 public domain dedication, which is not a license, but a legal tool that may be used by anyone wishing to permanently surrender the copyright and database rights (where they exist) they may have in a work, thereby placing it as nearly as possible into the public domain.
This is an excellent move by NPG, especially following an opinion piece they published in 2009 explicitly recommending open sharing and the use of CC0 to put data in the public domain, entitled, "Post-publication sharing of data and tools":
"Although it is usual practice for major public databases to make data freely available to access and use, any restrictions on use should be strongly resisted and we endorse explicit encouragement of open sharing, for example under the newly available CC0 public domain waiver of Creative Commons."
Many more organizations and institutions are using CC0 to release their data, which you can peruse at our wiki page for CC0 uses with data and databases. CC licenses are also used for data; read more about this and other issues plus an FAQ on CC and data at http://wiki.creativecommons.org/Data.2 Comments »
National Libraries and a Museum open up their data using CC0
CC0 has been getting lots of love in the last couple months in the realm of data, specifically GLAM data (GLAM as in Galleries, Libraries, Archives, Museums). The national libraries of Spain and Germany have released their bibliographic data using the CC0 public domain dedication tool. For those of you who don't know what that means, it means that the libraries have waived all copyrights to the extent possible in their jurisdictions, placing the data effectively into the public domain. What's more, the data is available as linked open data, which means that the data sets are available as RDF (Resource Description Framework) on the web, enabling the data to be linked with other data from different sources.
"Open Data Stickers" / Copyright and related rights waived via CC0 by jwyg
The National Library of Spain teamed up with the Ontology Engineering Group (OEG) to create the data portal: datos.bne.es. The datasets can be accessed directly at http://www.bne.es/es/Catalogos/DatosEnlazados/DescargaFicheros.
The National Library of Germany, aka Deutsche Nationalbibliothek (DNB), has documentation on its linked open data under CC0 here. CC Germany reported the move, and a post in English can be found over at Open GLAM.
Relatedly, the Smithsonian Cooper-Hewitt Museum, a major design museum in New York, has released the collection data for 60% of its documented collection into the public domain, also using CC0. The data set is available on a repository in Github; you can read more about the move at http://www.cooperhewitt.org/collections/data.

Safecast: Global sensor network collects and shares radiation data via CC0
INTERPOLATION MAP / Lionel Bergeret, Safecast / CC BY-NC
One week after the nuclear disaster at the Fukushima Diachi plant in March, the Safecast project was born to respond to the information needs of Japanese citizens regarding radiation levels in their environment. Safecast, then known as RDTN.org, started a campaign on Kickstarter "to provide an aggregate feed of nuclear radiation data from governmental, non-governmental and citizen-scientist sources." All radiation data collected via the project would be dedicated to the public domain using CC0, "available to everyone, including scientists and nuclear experts who can provide context for lay people." Since then, more than 1.25 million data points have been collected and shared; Safecast has been featured on PBS Newshour; and the project aims to expand its scope to mapping the rest of the world.
"Safecast supports the idea that more data – freely available data – is better. Our goal is not to single out any individual source of data as untrustworthy, but rather to contribute to the existing measurement data and make it more robust. Multiple sources of data are always better and more accurate when aggregated.
While Japan and radiation is the primary focus of the moment, this work has made us aware of a need for more environmental data on a global level and the longterm work that Safecast engages in will address these needs. Safecast is based in the US but is currently focused on outreach efforts in Japan. Our team includes contributors from around the world."
To learn more, visit http://safecast.org. All raw data from the project is available for re-use via the CC0 public domain dedication, while other website content (such as photos and text) are available under CC BY-NC.Comments Off
Europeana Licensing Framework published
Yesterday, Europeana — Europe's digital library, museum and archive, and the first major adopter of the Public Domain Mark for works in the worldwide public domain — published and made available The Europeana Licensing Framework using the CC0 public domain dedication. The licensing framework encompasses and is a follow-on to the recent Data Exchange Agreement that Europeana adopted in September, and which Europe's national librarians publicly supported weeks later.
In Europeana's own words, the licensing framework "underpins Europeana's Strategic Plan" for 2011-2015:
"The goal of the Europeana Licensing Framework is to standardize and harmonize rights-related information and practices. Its intention is to bring clarity to a complex area, and make transparent the relationship between the end-users and the institutions that provide data."
"Users need good and reliable information about what they may do with [content]. Whether they can freely re-use it for their educational, creative or even commercial projects or not. The Europeana Licensing Framework therefore asks data providers to provide structured rights information in the metadata they provide about the content that is accessible through Europeana. Doing so makes it easier for users to filter content by the different re-use options they have – by 'public domain', for example and hence easier for users to comply with licensing terms."
The framework supports re-use of data and content through CC legal tools (CC0 public domain dedication, the Public Domain Mark, and CC BY-SA), providing guidelines for their appropriate applications. Download the European Licensing Framework (pdf) or peruse the full set of resources at Europeana Connect.
Relatedly, see Europeana's white paper no. 2 published last month, The Problem of the Yellow Milkmaid: A Business Model Perspective on Open Metadata (pdf). The white paper "explore[s] in detail the risks and rewards of open data from different perspectives" after "extensive consultation with the heritage sector, including dozens of workshops." It opens:
1 Comment »
"'The Milkmaid', one of Johannes Vermeer's most famous pieces, depicts a scene of a woman quietly pouring milk into a bowl. During a survey the Rijksmuseum discovered that there were over 10,000 copies of the image on the internet—mostly poor, yellowish reproductions1. As a result of all of these low-quality copies on the web, according to the Rijksmuseum, "people simply didn't believe the postcards in our museum shop were showing the original painting. This was the trigger for us to put high-resolution images of the original work with open metadata on the web ourselves. Opening up our data is our best defence against the 'yellow Milkmaid'."

Lent Sermon Series
What's Wrong With Us: A Look at the 7 Deadly Sins
Sin is a part of the human condition, whether we're Christian or not. Bishop Will Willimon writes, "sin is the problem we have between us and God. It is rebellion against our true Sovereign, an offense against the way the Creator has created us to be." What's wrong with us? Why do we continually rebel against our gracious God who sent his only Son to die for us? This Lenten season, as we prepare for the dark day of Jesus' crucifixion, we will talk openly and honestly about the sins that encroach upon our lives. It will be a challenging 40-day journey that will help us to receive the glorious Easter-morning light with the greatest of joy.Listen

Picked up the car at our friends, the Meadors. Hitting the road for Atlanta. Wow, it's been a whirlwind expedition! Feels like we've been gone for months. Can't believe how much we've seen and all the places that we've been in the last 26 days. I will certainly view so many of the places we've visited with a different set of eyes and opinions ...

No sugar coating or painting false pictures for strangers. We got one another and it was quite a beautiful thing.

Listen in on travel professionals and you might think they were speaking in code (although they could just be trying to show off).

NICU & Preemie Parenting
> Going home with small or premature baby?
I'm really excited Zephan's doing well, but when the doctor told me this morning that he'll probably be going home in a week, I am feeling a little nervous.
Zephan is 33 weeks 5 days now and weighs 4 pounds 5 ounces. If he goes home in about a week, that would mean he will be 34-35 weeks and will weigh less than 5 pounds.
Anyone been there, done that?
I burst into tears when the physician's assistant told me my baby would be going home from the NICU in about a week. It totally freaked me out. I said, "I had to get ok with her being here, now I have to think about taking her home?"
Do you know if you'll be using an apnea monitor with your baby? We had to be trained on a home apnea/heart monitor and then room in at the hospital with the baby on the home monitor for 2 nights. The PA had told me that I would be comfortable bringing her home after that experience, and I was. The monitor was really reassuring.
She was 4 lbs 11 oz when we brought her home and we had to get the (lame) Assura car seat from the hospital when because she was too small for the Graco infant seat we had from the last baby. Oh and she was, hmm, between 34 and 35 weeks when we brought her home.
Feel free to PM me if you want or I'd love to chat about it more with you here.
I was terrified to bring home my son after being in the NICU for over a month. He was about 34 weeks when we got to leave. He had just hit the 5lb mark. We didn't come home on any monitors. I don't know it that was a blessing or not. We didn't have anything to "know" that he was okay. However, I actually believe that made me learn what was normal for my little guy faster.
Congratulations and enjoy your little one!
First off, congrats that your baby is doing so great! Home at 34-35 weeks means you've got a real tough cookie there
I brought mine home at 36 weeks, and 4 lbs, 1 oz. We were able to use a Peg Perego infant car seat, all extra padding, headhuggers etc removed, wedging babe in at the sides with rolled up receiving blankets and supporting the head with more rolled up blankets. We did have to pass a "carseat challenge" - sitting babe in the carseat for an hour with monitored breathing. The NICU nurses showed us how to make our carseat safe for wee ones.
We were first time parents, and pretty nervous for the first 3 days or so. But she mostly slept and fed until her due date, so we got into a routine pretty quickly. Looking back, the routine was great while it lasted
Not even NB clothes fit so we mostly did swaddling with the smallest onesies we had for the first while.
My concern was germs from others so I was pretty militant about handwashing etc with visitors.
Enjoy your little one!
Raleigh and Randall were both around the 4lb mark when I brought them home. I did not feel nervous at all honestly just mega relief at getting them out of the NICU. Congrats on Zephan doing so well. You will definitly need some preemie clothes for a month or two just relax and enjoy him when you get home. It does take a little extra patience with feeding but they get the hang of it fast and we practiced co-sleeping from day one with no problems either. Celebrate don't be nervous.
Addison was 4lbs. 5.3oz. and Riley was 3lbs. 13oz. when they were discharged. Mine both came home on monitors and I think that made it harder. It was such a relief to have them home though. I had been so used to handling them in the NICU that it wasn't much different at home.
Congrats on bringing your little one home!
All of the advice above is GREAT!
Get the name of your LLL or a local lactation consultant and keep that number close by. You might need some extra help with BFing.
Jack didn't go home with an apnea monitor, but we were very dependent on the monitors while in the NICU. One thing we did when we got the going home notice was to ask to have the monitors turned off every so often so we could start caring for him without the additional "help" of the monitors. It was soooooooo weird to hold him without any wires or lines, but it really helped us build confidence.
Also find out what their suggestions are re: sleeping arrangements. Do they think he should sleep on a slight incline? If so, you can buy an incline sleep positioner or just prop up your bed/co-sleeper/crib.
Start thinking about what you want to tell friends and family. EVERYONE will probably want to see Zephan, but you may find that you would rather spend the next few weeks settling in.
He'll probably have to pass the car seat challenge. Check you car seat to see what the baseline weight limit is, and plan for a car bed if needed. Our hospital recommended that everyone who was caring for Jack, take a CPR class. So my mom and dad and MIL all took the infant CPR class.
It's so great that he's going home soon!
Zephan's had some significant desats after feeding. Sort of funny, because he's been breastfeeding pretty huge amounts (50-60 cc when his full feeds are 37!). The big volume of milk iss probably causing reflux that is causing his O2 saturation to fall. And he holds his breath way too long when he's pooping.
I guess all of this is normal and the neonatologist is generally relaxed and amused that a barely 34 weeker is bfing so much. All of that has bought us a few more days, at least until Thursday. And that feels okay. I think by next weekend I could be ready.
We've been shopping for preemie clothes and we have the right carseat ready to go. We'll do the carseat test sometime before we go home. We've already taken infant CPR in the NICU and we have our "getting ready to go home" checklist up in the room. He has a few more tests to do here, but basically things are ready.
Any advice on where he should sleep at home? At this point, we have a crib in his bedroom but would rather have him in our room for the first few months. We will buy or borrow something.
Craddle? Bassinet? Has anyone tried an amby baby? He's sleeping on a little incline in the NICU and seems to really need it to keep his milk down, so the Amby is really interesting.
We did our room - mini co-sleeper - LOVED IT! BFing at night was a breeze, plus I loved having babe so close to me, but not interfering with my sleep. Also used the angel care monitor for added peace of mind. You could put it on a bit of an incline with books or pillows etc.
The minis can be wheeled around (good if you're on one floor as we are) - full cosleepers convert to pack and plays later.
Congats on Zephan's great progress! And cool name btw!
Sorry to hear about the desats. Just his way of showing you that he needs a bit more time. And it's so great that he's BFing so much!
Jack would desat on a bottle and once we changed to EBF he did great. He did develop a bit of breastfeeding apnea shortly after coming home. Just one extra thing to watch out for.
Jack slept in a cosleeper on an inclined positioner. Worked like a charm! You could sidecar your crib to the bed to get the same effect.
My dd came home a few days before her due date and weighed 4lb12oz. Not too awfully tiny but still tiny!
I was most concerned about her in the carseat (even though she passed the carseat test) since I couldn't really see her well to know if she was breathing OK. I'm a single mom and had to drive home by myself with her in the backseat... I kept freaking out every time she got quiet so I'd yell back and make her wake up! She cried half the ride home from the NICU and it was probably the only time it made me feel OK about her crying
As far as the first few weeks home, I felt a little bit like we were still in the hospital. I tracked her diapers, her temp, her weight, ect. I sat with her every single minute for at least 2 weeks while she slept. She was a grunter so if she got too quiet, I'd wake up and check her. It really paid off when her reflux got really bad and she actually began choking/ not breathing as she slept. She ended back in the hospital for the refluxing after a month home. She slept in a cradle and I elevated the cradle mattress with those Freddie Frog positioners and it did help.
I completely understand your feelings. Molly is a 27 weeker. She was set for discharge at 35 weeks. 3lbs 5oz. I was so nervous. The night before she was to come home she stopped feeding cold turkey. She wouldn't nurse or take a bottle. She ended up staying another 9 days. We both needed those 9 days. When she came home I felt like she was really ready.
My 34weeker came home at nearly 36weeks and 5lbs 5oz and my 33 weeker came home at 35weeks and 4lbs 8oz. The 34weeker came home on an apnea monitor so that was REALLY helpful and eased my mind a bit for times like when i wanted to shower or when I needed to put her down in the cradle. It was extremely infrequent but it did happen and the monitor was helpful. My 33 weeker came home to a crazy loud house with two big sisters and one in school and a single mom so the poor thing got tossed in the sling and dragged through her days of walking to the bus stop zipped in my jacket and going grocery shopping in my jacket, etc. Poor thing.
But yeah, it was a lot of sleepless nights. But co-sleeping and breastfeeding and babywearing are all wonderful things for preemies and it makes YOUR life a ton easier. The hardest part is the pumping(i had to pump for both my girls) and the germ protocol.
We're a few steps closer to being out the door.
Zephan's up to 6-7 out of 8 feeds by breast. He pulled his gavage tube out and we're going to see if we can keep it out. The doctors and nutritionists are putting together the "going home" feeding plan. On Tuesday, we'll go ahead and introduce a bottle or a SNS, as the plan is to fortify a few feedings every day. We'll also do the carseat test.
I think I've decided I'm okay with 1 bottle a day. I function much better if I get one longer stretch of sleep, so we're going to let daddy do one feeding at night (we can fortify this one).
I'm feeling less nervous about having him home and more ready. I've been at this hospital since October and I'm ready to be home.
FWIW I never used fortifier at home with Randall. He was born at almost the exact gestation and weight as Zephan. He was 31 weeks and 5 days and 3lbs 11 oz when he was born this past May. I did supplement one 2&1/2 oz little bottle of pumped milk a day for a few months until he refused to take them any longer(he now prefers only the real thing), but that was mainly to use them up since I had so much pumped from his 10 days of bowel rest due to NEC. I hate to pump there is no way I would pump just to add in fortifier and even when I had a surplus pumped I felt it was not necessary.
I guess I am just a breastmilk fanatic. I really don't believe it can be improved upon and I have always been told that moms with preemies make richer milk anyway so I could not see the need to add to what should be naturally the best product. I was never comfortable seeing the enfamil name on the fortifier package either. Don't get me wrong if your mommy instinct is telling you that is what is best then you should definitly follow through with adding it in. I was just really biased against it since I partially blamed it(maybe unjustly)for the NEC.
Randall has grown just fine on nothing but breastmilk. He was up to 13lbs 12 oz by his 6 month check up and is doing great hitting milestones pretty much on time when you go by his adjusted age.
We brought our 31-weeker home at exactly four weeks of age, 4.5 pounds. Now that she's six, I can't believe she was ever that small.
One thing that hit DH and me like a brick: don't expect the schedule in the hospital to transfer over to the house. The minute she was home, she decided, "New place? New routine, Ma!" Feeds that had been every three hours went to every 90 minutes or so.
And she REFUSED to sleep in her basinette. I mean Flat. Out. Refused. Four weeks of being on her own was enough, I guess. It was on Mommy or Daddy or no sleep. So while we intended to have her within arms length, she ended up just in arms.
With the reflux, if you do want to co-sleep: maybe if he sleeps with his head on the crook of your arm he'll get enough elevation to help? Not an expert by any means, just trying to think outside the box for you.
Have a wonderful babymoon when DS comes home!
So I think we're going home on Thursday or Friday.
Zephan's got his ng tube out and is eating everything he needs. The biggest issue we're having is that he
the poly-vi-sol. Did anyone else use that? Or refuse it? Are there alternatives?
To get out of here, we'll breast feed 5-6 times a day and do the fortified bottles 2-3 times a day. Once we're home, I think I'll go towards breastfeeding around the clock except for the middle of the night, when daddy can give Zephan a bottle so I can sleep in one longer stretch.
So ready for that babymoon...
DD absolutely *hated* the PVS vitamins. It got to the point that for a while she wouldn't even take a bottle because she associated the taste of the vitamins with the bottle itself. We just stopped giving it to her because she wouldn't eat it anyway. We didn't want a battle with her that would use up her calories (she had a temper even at negative four weeks old).
Don't know of any alternatives, though. I'm curious to know myself, just for the heckuvit.
Joyful Mama
hooray for thursday or friday! the doc said friday for us today...but i'm thinking it will be after the weekend - he had a dose of caffeine today, and they are supposed to be off of caffeine for a week before coming home. suits me fine, because i was planning on having a birthday party for DS2 on Sunday. it will be a busy weekend, though, since i'm moving in to the hospital now!
Hehe, another thing in common joyful mama. We're having a birthday party for our Asher on Thursday. At this point, it's a toss up whether Zephan will be able to come!
So excited to get these babies home soon.
Today I put Zephan in a moby wrap for an hour to see how he did. He loved it. This is great because he'll probably spend most of the next month in there!
That is wonderful news!!! I have been through the NICU stuff but Ashton was 9.5lbs and 9months old when he came home!!!!

We were flashing fonts from this thread.
They would work but we couldn't figure out how to get them to show up in the font style menu.
The credit goes out to thatdudebutch.
He made these apks and flashable zip to install, but when I tried it, my phone soft bricked. Not sure why, the pathway was correct, but just didn't work.
So, I just took out the meta-inf folder rezipped them, so there are about 70 font.apks in it. I can't believe they charge like a dollar for each font when you hit the "get fonts online" button.
To install, unzip the file and move the whole bunch to the data/app folder. They DO NOT go into the system/font folder. You need to be rooted and use a file manager like root explorer. They will show up in the font style menu and you can choose which to apply.
Download the zip here
Again all credit goes to thatdudebutch.
this is a screenshot from my charge

Played around in my glass house today
Did some easy decorating in the glass house today. It's still warm out even if not very sunny.
Since I have all this glass collected for totems, I decided to go get the red and green glassware and use it for Christmas decorations on the breezeway:
Used an old frame my daughter picked up on the sidewalk in Boston (it has a crack in the corner which is why the birdhouse is positioned there!!). Pulled out some ornies in the same turquoise and the birdhouse matches too.(Please ignore the over-painted windows!! I need to get out the razor blade.)
Some old green glassware I got stuck with when Robb kept bidding at an auction! Works for Christmas decorations:
Haven't found a place for this old door yet so it's in the glasshouse:
Wow, rafor! Great GJ in your glass house! Love the window w/ornies...worked out beautifully! Also that old door makes great garden art!!! Love it!
Your green & red glass sure looks good tucked away in that wood pc on your breezeway! & the Merry Christmas sign is cute in your glass house windows! TFS, rafor! Jeanne S.
I love the green depression glass! The frame works so well to hang ornies from & the old door adds lots of character to your glass house, looks like the floor is even polished, all you need is a couple of old fashioned lawn chairs with cushions & you could enjoy spending some time out there. It's lovely! Jan
Love all of your red and green glass! And I really like the Christmas balls hung in the picture frame. Someone had posted one similar that they had hung on the front door instead of a wreath.
Things are looking good in your glass house! TFS~

Watch The Skies - NYC Megagame
Megagame Society
Saturday, July 26, 2014 from 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM (EDT)
Event Details
The aliens have landed and it's up to the nations of Earth to unite... or not.
Or at the very least, pass some UN resolutions and try not to spy on each other too much. And then there's all that interesting alien tech floating around in the grey market...
Or at the very least, pass some UN resolutions and try not to spy on each other too much. And then there's all that interesting alien tech floating around in the grey market...
How will it all shake out? There's only one way to find out:
What is a megagame? It's like a game but bigger. Mega-bigger.
Part RPG and part board game, Watch the Skies brings together 30-53 players who will play on teams as various nations and the alien visitors. Each nation is made up of a team fufilling different roles: the Foreign Minister, the Top Scientist, the Military Chief, and the Head of State. The Foreign Minister will hold talks with other countries and the UN. The Top Scientist will research new and alien technologies. The Military Chief will control the military and the spies. The Heads of State will listen to his advisers and ultimately call the shots for his nation. And the aliens... well, you'll have to play the game to see what they're up to.
Inspired by the recent megagame episode of Shut Up and Sit Down a group of passionate gamers are excited to bring Watch The Skies to the United States. The game will last approximately 8 hours. All materials will be provided by the hosts, as well as breakfast and lunch. For more information on the megagame please go to http://www.megagame-makers.org.uk/megagamet-wts.htm.
For those of you that watched the Shut Up and Sit Down episode: we've worked with the game designer to change any aspects that were spoiled in the video. Don't worry, you'll have a completely unique experience.

A Miracle - Albany, NY
I researched area plastic surgeons, and I narrowed the choice down to two, largely based on level of experience, positive recommendations, and excellent results photographs. I had consultations with both surgeons, and Dr. Rockmore was hands down the surgeon I connected with and trusted. My results were more than I could have hoped for... after surgery, in addition to having a flat tummy instead of a pooch, I also have an indented waist which I have NEVER had, even as a young woman. I gladly give Dr. Rockmore my highest recommendation !

Dr. Rockmore is extremely professional and has a wonderful bedside manner. He answered all of my questions and concerns and made me feel comfortable at all times. The procedure was done in a timely manner and my recovery was extremely easy. I give all the credit to Dr. Rockmore and his skill in performing surgery for my quick recovery.

Consultation went great, he was very informative and answered all my questions without making me feel rushed! I even emailed a question a few weeks later that I didn't think to ask and I got a response from the physician within 24 hours. Haven't had the surgery yet.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Life goes on in sub-Saharan Africa - as it would during medieval times. The torture of prisoners in these countries continue to be applied with impunity. Such atrocities as fingernail yanking, rape and electrical shocks continue to be employed there against men, women and children - with impunity, according to Amnesty International.

Keywords: Torture, Africa, Amnesty International
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Among the countries currently on the African continent, only 10 out of 54 countries have adopted national laws banning it, Amnesty International says.
The human rights agency has evidence of torture conducted by prison, police and army officers. Torture is regularly practiced in at least 24 countries in sub-Saharan Africa, including Ethiopia, Gambia, Kenya, Mali, Nigeria, Senegal, Sudan and Zimbabwe.
Find out how you can get food to needy children -- by going here!
Torture, the group says is being routinely used as a means of extracting "confessions" in prisons and detention centers. Prisoners have reportedly been suspended from ceilings, bound in painful positions and sexually abused.
"African governments have yet to acknowledge the problem, let alone begin to rectify it," Netsanet Belay, Amnesty International's research and advocacy director for Africa says. "The lack of strong national laws prohibiting torture in the majority of African countries allows torture not just to survive - but to thrive."
Globally, Amnesty International has evidence of torture in 79 out of the 155 states that have ratified a 1984 U.N. Convention against Torture.
All but South Sudan has ratified the African Charter on Human and People's Rights, which outlaws torture. However, only 10 countries have made it a criminal offence: Algeria, Burundi, Cameroon, Democratic Republic of Congo, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Madagascar, Mauritius, Senegal and Tunisia.
Torture practiced in Sudan include the use of amputation as a punishment. Three men had their right hands cut off after being found guilty in April of last year of stealing cooking oil.
Inmates at Mangaung high-security prison in South Africa have accused the authorities of using electric shocks and beatings on them.
In Kenya, 58 percent of the respondents to a poll on torture, said they were afraid of being tortured if taken into custody.
There have also been reports in Nigeria where there were reports of detainees being starved, shot, forced to sit on sharp objects and held in stress positions.
Reports of torture have grown in the West African country, Amnesty says, since Nigerian security forces stepped up operations against Islamist group, Boko Haram, reviled internationally for its abduction of more than 200 schoolgirls last month.
"Torture is never justified. It is illegal. It is barbaric. It is inhumane," Amnesty said.
