is it not just ur state of mind driven by an insatiable lust????
Interesting article for Christmas. Lately it seems The Economist publishes regular criticisms of religion. Not all readers are atheists. Regardless, the article in the paragraph about modern biblical scholarship on Jesus and Paul never actually cites a real Scripture verse in their summation of their teaching on the subject as posed to the mythological views of hell and brimstone.
In Matthew's Gospel, here is an example of Jesus' teaching on the judgment in which he does refer to hell not only as a place of darkness and weeping, but as eternal fire:
"For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away. Throw out the worthless slave into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; (Matthew 25:29, 30, 41 NASB)
i wish u believers would get ur mind right!!! can u deny reality - the greatest "GOD"??? its all in ur mind babe .... think about it - heaven is a place on earth - we mfs of atheists at least dont mfs LUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL c{;-))
is not the pain of one life sufficient???? and yet u lust for Heaven???? surely all believers r in hell (of their lust) o feck it ...
Is this what we call the domino theory? First Limbo falls. Then Hell breaks loose. Interesting article, thanks.
I think it's important to note that all extant descriptions of Hell have been made by supporters of the _other_ eternal destination (Heaven). And let's face it, when you have 90-plus percent market share, why bother to advertise?
"In Hell, stretched over many acres, lay the Titans who defied Zeus in Greek myth—Prometheus, Tantalus, Sisyphus and the rest".
Oh dear.
Neither Sisyphus nor Tantalus were Titans - both were mortals kings.
Prometheus was indeed a Titan, but the site of his punishment was Mount Kazbek in the Caucasus, not Tartarus. And while his punishment was indeed intended by a vindictive Zeus to be eternal, he was eventually freed by the hero Herakles.
How disapointing to see The Economist make such, 'erm, TITANIC errors.
Pedantically yours,
Will Salomone
According to Aeschylus, Prometheus is cast into Tartarus by Zeus after a time on Mount Kazbek. Read Prometheus Bound.
Dear Economist,
Thank you.
Hell is a huge and complex entity and therefore it's important to understand its organization, to know how it works.
It's like the Secretaries, ministers and Departments of a huge and complex government.There are different choirs and hierarchies.
Satan is the monarch and supreme ruler, the Lord of Hell, of course, and Beelzebub is his crown prince. In his capacity as vice-president or prime minister of Hell, Beelzebub supervises the other hierarchies, but only in cases involving a need for higher authority, otherwise the chain of command is respected and each order and sub-order is governed by its leader. There are three orders: seraphim, querubim and thrones.
Carreau, Prince of Powers, rules the second hierarchy and while Beelzebub himself tempts proud kings, presidents, multimillionaires and tycoons, men who have power, he hardens human hearts and causes misery through mercilesness.
Belias (not Belial), Prince of Virtues, rules the third hierarchy, and causes the downfall of men through arrogance, etc.
Balberith, as Prince of Cherubim (first hierarchy) fosters the idea of murder in men's minds; his minion demons cause mortals to be quarrelsome, blasphemous and generally disagreeable. This can be seen sometimes in these discussion fora.
Astaroth, Prince of Thrones (also first hierarchy) specializes in sloth, laziness, idleness. His demons cause discouragement, lassitude, indifference and irresponsibility among men. I confess, I served Astaroth for a while.
Verrine, a lord of thrones under Astaroth—a perfect example of a subaltern of Hell—rules a sub-order of lesser (somewhat like novices) demons who specialize in bad temper, impatience, angry outbursts and sudden hot antagonisms.
Sonneillon, another lesser lord of a sub-order of thrones, under Astaroth, tempts men (and women) to sin through the wickedness of hatred against those who disagree with them. There are a few of these lesser demons here as well. Sometimes their presence is obvious, you can feel it.
The Incubi and Succubi are special commandos.
&c (it's a long and complex hierarchy).
Once you know and understand its basic organization and hierarchy, Hell becomes a less fearful place.
I recommend Lauran Paine, 'The Hierarchy of Hell'.
As for incubi and succubi,
Hell is definitely with us today. Have you ever tried driving across the USA with the radio turned on? Eating in any of the diners or truck stops? Talking with anyone living in Alabama?
How about forced to watch Fox News wile abroad to get new as it is the only ENglish speaking News channel available.
"Hell hardly hurts any more" (except when it is put into an article that is tedious, poorly timed-being the holiday season-and very much so a rant). In everyday parlance "('What the hell are you doing?'[-What your editor should have said to you]), it is merely a bark"...that last line is pretty much how I feel about these piece.
The fact that you would print such an article at Christmas that the great majority of Americans celebrate demonstrates a lack of sensitivity that is "beyond belief". You have sunk to a new low! And as far as hell is concerned, even though your ego won't let you admit even the possibility, trust me "You will believe it when you get there!"
What a thoroughly ridiculous comment. The fact that it will soon be Christmas has nothing to do with it. The Ecomonist always publishes additional articles in this edition - it is not as if it focused entirely on Christianity anyway. When is a good time to discuss theories on hell exactly - mid to late July perhaps? Your threat to the writer that they will go to hell is truly repugnant. That is "beyond belief".
I thought Americans believed in free speech? And the Economist is read in more places than just the USA, amazing as it may seem to you.
The fact that Christians bang on about how loving their god is, but simultaneously claim he built the ultimate tortture chamber shows just how ridiculous and utterly sick their religion is.
Stick that in your pipe and smoke it.
Not only did it focus on Christianity, it insulted Christianity and Christians everywhere. But, your comments demonstrate that you would not understand the import of my comments. And, the fact that it is Christmas, a holy time of year, has EVERYTHING TO DO WITH IT. Your insensitivity is beyond belief. Obviously, this is beyond you!
"For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away. Throw out the worthless slave into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; (Matthew 25:29, 30, 41 NASB)Notice hell was prepared for Lucifer and the angels that rebelled against God. God doesn't send anyone to hell. Man chooses hell when he rejects the love of God, sent to this earth to pay for our sins so we wouldn't have to. You see God is a just and sin must be atoned for through the shedding of blood. This is the reasson Christ came and took our punishment so we would not have to. When you reject God's provission of salvation through Jesus , you choose the alternative. Hell was created not for man but for the one who rebelled. Man is still in rebellion today and does not want to follow God's word. Remember Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. 1Peter 3:8 Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous;[a] 9 not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing. 10 For
"He who would love life
And see good days,
Let him refrain his tongue from evil,
And his lips from speaking deceit.
11 Let him turn away from evil and do good;
Let him seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous,
And His ears are open to their prayers;
But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil."[b]
Suffering for Right and Wrong
13 And who is he who will harm you if you become followers of what is good? 14 But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you are blessed. "And do not be afraid of their threats, nor be troubled."[c] 15 But sanctify the Lord God[d] in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; 16 having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. 17 For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.
Christ's Suffering and Ours
18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us[e] to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit, 19 by whom also He went and preached to the spirits in prison, 20 who formerly were disobedient, when once the Divine longsuffering waited[f] in the days of Noah, while the ark was being prepared, in which a few, that is, eight souls, were saved through water. 21 There is also an antitype which now saves us—baptism (not the removal of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God), through the resurrection of Jesus Christ, 22 who has gone into heaven and is at the right hand of God, angels and authorities and powers having been made subject to Him.
The world is becoming rather fed up with the Christian persecution complex. Your religion has persecuted everyone else for over 1500 years, often in the cruelest and most violent ways, completely at odds with its own teaching.
Jesus wasn't even born in December! Every Christian scholar agrees that if he existed at all then he was born in the spring! The church only chose late December for Christmas a few centuries ago to try to wipe out the celebration of ancient pagan midwinter festivals in Northern Europe.
If you can't handle a few historical FACTS about your religion then that's your problem, but don't tell the rest of us what we can and can't say. Otherwise me might start point out the lies, hypocrisy and nastiness espoused by your ridiculous religion.
I don't appreciate religious nutters quoting their scripture at me, particularly when they're too lazy or stupid to even bother adding their own interpretation of it.
Obviously you did not read what I wrote take a look again.(Notice hell was prepared for Lucifer and the angels that rebelled against God. God doesn't send anyone to hell. Man chooses hell when he rejects the love of God, sent to this earth to pay for our sins so we wouldn't have to. You see God is a just God and sin must be atoned for through the shedding of blood. This is the reasson Christ came and took our punishment so we would not have to. When you reject God's provission of salvation through Jesus , you choose the alternative. Hell was created not for man but for the one who rebelled. Man is still in rebellion today and does not want to follow God's word.)
Don't let mans condemnation keep you from understanding there is a God that loved you so much he sent his son to die a brutal death on the cross to pay for your sins. Look at this scripture and see what Jesus said to the woman cought in adultery.He wrote the sins of the people accusing her on the groound, and notice they all walked away after they saw Jesus look at them and write their sins on the ground. Jhn 8:3 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group
Jhn 8:4 and said to Jesus, "Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery.
Jhn 8:5 In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?"
Jhn 8:6 They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger.
Jhn 8:7 When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, "If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."
Jhn 8:8 Again he stooped down and wrote on the ground.
Jhn 8:9 At this, those who heard began to go away one at a time, the older ones first, until only Jesus was left, with the woman still standing there.
Jhn 8:10 Jesus straightened up and asked her, "Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"
Jhn 8:11 "No one, sir," she said. "Then neither do I condemn you," Jesus declared. "Go now and leave your life of sin."
Jhn 8:12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
Your vituperative comments show who is really sick here! And, SURPRISE! It is you!
Beyond belief as is your utter ignorance!
As Lenny Bruce quipped. " Christianity uses the cross, an execution device as the symbol of its religion"
Try large-scale systemic slaughter and torture, the likes of which we never saw again until Hitler's rise. Any Christian (or Muslim) claiming victimization for the faith is at best ignorant and at worst evil. To be completely honest, only Jews can really reasonably make the claim that they have been historically the victims of their religion rather than the tormentors, although given recent history that seems to be changing for many of them.
This excellent article is appropriate at any time of the year especially at Christmas.
It serves as a reminder to the majority Christians who celebrate Christmas worldwide, the reason for the season.
An infinitely loving God taking on our humanity to redeem us from sin as John 3:16] tells us: "For God so loved the world, as to give his only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in him, may not perish, but may have life everlasting. I would also add here that we live what we believe by our works - Faith and Works.
As for political correctness and a distorted sense of sensitivity and charity, they have no place when a truth is proclaimed even though the bearer of that truth may not know or deny the same truth they tell.
A minor point: my copy of "Inferno" has Satan buried to mid-chest to allow his great bat-like wings to fan the ice he's wedged in to ever colder temperatures.
This has to be the worst chosen piece for a "holiday" issue. Pretentious and a resulting dud.
I second this. This article makes me feel like I just read a chapter from The Idiot's Guide to Religion. This article in ten minutes has made me lose nearly all confidence in the Economist's integrity.
personally thought it was DELIGHTFUL for a holiday issue.
lighten up francis.
Twisted Nick, Level 5 Supervisor in Hell is offering an alternative view to his apprentice Unhinged.
"I would like to remind you of an alternative view of Hell which is due to a lay theologian called C. S. Lewis, and it is rooted in the idea of a hell-on-Earth consisting of endless miles of suburbia where nothing ever works and nothing is the way people want it to be. The only problem with it is that when the sinners die they won't find the real Hell's torments so bad after all, and we don't want that either. So what we need is a balance between the heaven that's beyond the art of the possible and the hell they can get all too easily, and that way preserve the awfulness of the rewards of sin for the afterlife.
"Lewis's idea was, as I said, of an endless plain of suburbia where everyone lived in semi-detacheds with the neighbour from Hell on the other side. And it rains. Cold rain all the time, the kind that gets down the back of your neck and soaks you where you can't reach. It's perpetual maritime winter so no snow, just rain – and mud – and cold. Every now and then you'll see a fleeting glimpse of the sun through endless clouds, just to remind you it's there, but not enough to cheer you. There's always a railway line nearby and an airport close enough that you see huge airliners roaring barely overhead most hours of the day and night. Lots of people seem to be flying here and there but no-one knows who they are or where they're going. Lots of trains too, with similarly anonymous faces aboard, similarly unknown destinations, and lots of noise for a long time as each train passes. In each of these houses lives a man, a woman, their 2.3 children and a narky little dog who bites everyone, that is when it isn't being sick all over the place. The man, as often as not, will be a drunk who beats his wife who takes her revenge by poisoning his food. Alternatively the wife will be a hectoring bitch who has emasculated her husband long ago, yet he takes his revenge - or tries to - with the overblown floozie round the corner. She in turn sends poison-pen letters to her faux-lover's wife. The roof leaks, the plumbing ditto, none of the mod. cons work properly and the repairmen are all crooks and cowboys. The garden is a disaster, the kids are always screaming, the dog hates going out in the wet yet there is a twice-daily ritual of the master of the house taking the dog of the house for a walk neither of them want, in fact both detest. Oh yes, and frequent, unpredictable power-cuts - and lots and lots of industrial and domestic pollution. You get the picture.
"And every now and then you can enrol on a one-day bus tour of heaven which is, in fact, part of the torment because, however nice and bucolic C.S. Lewis' version of heaven was, his version of Hell awaited everyone on the bus at the end of the tour. In Lewis' version people whom God has decided have had enough are allowed to get off the bus and stay there. Of course, in reality our defining God is the medieval God of fire and brimstone, and forgiveness isn't in his nature. Even so, I think we allowed one human, a Mr Danté Alighieri as I recall, a trip round our Hell so he could spread word of its awfulness around the would-be sinners above. Didn't seem to make too much of a difference, as I recall. No matter.
Unhinged: "But, Master, this isn't really all that – well Hellish, is it. No screams or tortures, no endless pain and repentance."
"Well, the key point about our Hell is the absolute feeling of helpless hopelessness about it. And that applied to Lewis' Hell as well. You couldn't derive pleasure from anything - anything at all - and you could never escape it outside those day trips. In short it was equally oppressive but maybe it took longer to get to you because you weren't screaming in agony or fear or whatever. But everything would be tainted. You would have perpetual money worries. Your bank would be endlessly threatening foreclosure and ignoring your entreaties. Your partner would snore in bed and keep you awake, the milk would be sour, the porridge lumpy, the alarm would wake you up long before you were ready for it. Everybody would be bad-tempered and shout at one another but somehow never manage to get in those oh-so-satisfying rejoinders. Outside there would be a perpetual traffic jam and the pavements would be impassable because they were so muddy or waterlogged. You could never get to the shops but somehow there would always be food, never enough, but always plenty of whatever you disliked the most. Booze for the drunks would taste like drain cleaner and burn all the way down, yet it was booze, they had to have it, ahead of turning into useless, embarrassing or evil idiots, and later still, truly depressing hangovers. No pleasures. The TV, when it works at all, just shows endless grainy black and white repetitions of the Queen's 1953 coronation. And the coffee would always be cold, with a skin on it."
Thank you for aiding the articulation of what I have felt for months: Lewis' hell is strikingly similar to Portland during its 9-month rainy season.
As the mythology of Hell has gradually evapourated from its own inherent contraditions, (its only reason for existance was keep the religious terrified and obedient to the so-called 'spiritual leaders'), some people seemed to have been determined to recreate it on Earth, though fortunately of more temporary duration.
The lesson perhaps is to distrust all those who say that some group or other is beyond any respect for human rights and does not merit them.
The catechism of the Catholic Church refers to hell, here: http://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0015/__P2O.HTM. Christ himself told as about the eternal fire. So hell is an integrant part of any coherent Catholic's beliefs. There are about 1 billion Catholics in the world. How then can you affirm that only fundamentalist Christians believe in hell?
Catholics don't have to believe the Catechism.
"So hell is an integrant part of any coherent Catholic's beliefs."
The only word in this sentence that is comprehensible is "So"
The catechism is essential to RC belief; if you reject its principles, you reject the Catholic faith.
Where does it say that the catechism is infallible or necessary? The catechism contains certain principles that if you reject, the you reject the Catholic faith; but the truth of the catechism is not one of those principles. In fact catechisms are routinely rendered obsolete and replaced with updated versions. Or are you saying that there were no principles of the Catholic faith before the CCC was released in 1992? It's just a single document among millions of theological tracts.
Catholics don't have to believe ANYTHING. And, that's the problem. Many of them don't. Like the rest of empty-headed Americans who are so lost that they will never find themselves or save themselves from themselves.. If a catholic doesn't believe the catechism, he is not catholic. No matter what he calls himself.
I won't bother replying to such an inflammatory comment - it seems to me to be self-refuting enough anyway. But I will just add that the fact that the author of this article refers unquestioningly to the online Catholic Encyclopedia which was published more than a century ago shows just how cursory and uninformed this article is.
There are real hells today: Anywhere where there is violence, war, famine, drought, mass epidemics, starvation etc. Just ask the people who live there. No need to imagine it.
I've been to Hell. Nice little town near Ann Arbor, Michigan.
"Hell has been the most fearful place in the human imagination. It is also the most absurd"
And by deductive reasoning, any ideology that believes in Hell is absurd?
Any ideology based on unproven claims meets the definition of absurdity, including today's end-of-the-world prediction. From a religious perspective, the Church father Tertullian is alleged to have said, "I believe because it is absurd," although what he really said was "I believe [in the resurrection of Christ] because it is impossible." -- De Carne Christi V, 4
It's called the doctrine of fideism, the belief that faith is apart from, and allegedly superior to, reason. The Latin root of the word means "out of tune," and "deaf," referring to people who reject consensual reality, preferring their own beliefs (think Bigfoot). My favorite expression of it is in the Epistle to the Hebrews, 11:1, "Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (KJV)
Since the existence of any hell or hells cannot be proved, belief in such a place or places is indeed absurd, according to the definition. Inductive reasoning is the basis of most beliefs, especially omens, portents, conspiracy theories, end-of-the-world predictions and anything involving eschatology, like the existence of a Heaven or Hell.
Ernie posits that ideology based on unproven claims as tested by inductive reasoning equals absurdity, therefore Christianity and its conception of hell are unreasonable and absurd. I do not fault Ernie's commitment to logic or reason, but observe that it actually has the nature of a pre commitment or a presupposition. It is not something that he has proven by empirical experience or logic, but it is rather that by which he proceeds to prove everything else. Since laws of logic are immaterial as God is immaterial, something not extended in space, then by your own proof test, reason is immaterial and absurd as well.
Laws of logic exist in the human mind whose basis is material. Logic underlies mathematics of which parts can be applied with great effectiveness to physical science. If you are a Platonist like Roger Penrose, then logic exists in a separate realm. The logic of the universe seems quite similar to the logic of the mind, but we evolved to live and survive in the real universe.

I think this comment expresses hell's true appeal. It gives sanction to imagine one's foes being eternally tortured. Schadenfreude to the extreme. The common denominator amongst religions is the in-group/out-group dynamic. The believers are the in group, everyone else the out. Christianity is unique in its barbarism in wishing eternal torture for all those who dare to leave the group or who deign not to join. This shows what horrible people christians really are. They seek an eternal afterlife where they can soothe themselves to the cries of the damned. Utterly, utterly sick. It is an indictment of the Romans and perhaps the rest of us that the doctrine of loving your neighbor and forgiving others their trespasses had so little to commend it that it had to bolstered with the concept of hell. Very sad.
You, in your arrogance and ignorance,criticize Christianity. And yet, you betray an appalling lack of knowledge of what Christianity teaches. Obviously, you don't know that one doesn't have to be Christian to avoid hell. One just has to go against the wishes of God. Like what you are doing in your hateful expressions. There are consequences for our actions. There is nothing hateful in that. If you break a law, you pay a price. Try harming someone else and see where you end up. You pay a price. And disobeying God means the same thing. But then again, those like yourself aren't interested in pleasing God, just your own selfish ego. And that is your choice which you are entitled to. Just don't complain when that lands you in some place that you will regret having to visit. I notice that you ended your comment with "Very Sad". Wow! You took the words out of my mouth. Especially, since your naive comments demonstrate how sadly lost and uninformed you are. Someone who accuses others of hate when your own comments reek with hate, not only of those you disagree with, but of your own self. Sadly, you aren't even aware of it!

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury. An injury to the head can affect the way your brain works. In most cases, concussions resolve within hours or days of the injury. Postconcussion syndrome (PCS) refers to continued symptoms of mild traumatic brain injury. Most often it resolves within a month, but sometimes the symptoms persist for much longer.
Treatment depends on the severity and length of time of your symptoms. Options include rest, reduced activity, various therapies, and medications.
The exact cause of PCS is unknown. Factors that may contribute to PCS include:
- Microscopic brain damage from a mild brain injury
- Psychological or emotional stress that results from a mild brain injury
Risk Factors
Factors that may increase your chance of having PCS include:
- Previous head injury or concussion
- Genetics
- Persistent headaches or lightheadedness after a mild brain injury
- Feeling depressed, or being diagnosed with depression after a mild brain injury
- Low social support , including not having a lot of close friends or people to confide in after a mild brain injury
- Learning difficulties
- Preoccupation with injury symptoms, and fear of real or imagined permanent brain damage
PCS symptoms vary from person-to-person. Headache is the most common and earliest symptom of PCS.
Other symptoms may include:
- Lightheadedness
- Balance problems
- Nausea
- Vision problems
- Being very sensitive to noise and/or light
- Depression
- Mood swings
- Anxiety
- Irritability
- Memory problems
- Concentration problems
- Trouble sleeping
- Feeling tired all the time
PCS is hard to diagnose. The brain damage caused by a mild brain injury is so slight that most tests cannot detect it. It is important to see a doctor with special training in brain injury. These doctors are called neurologists, neuropsychologists, and neurosurgeons. To find one of these doctors, talk with your primary care doctor, or call a local head injury foundation for a referral.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Tests may include:
- Memory and attention tests
- Sports Concussion Assessment Tool
- Electroencephalogram (EEG)—to look for abnormal brain electrical activity
Imaging tests evaluate the brain and surrounding structures. These may include:
PCS treatment depends on your symptoms. Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Options include:
Your doctor may recommend:
- Pain relievers
- Antidepressants
- Nerve blocks
Psychological Treatment
You may be referred to a therapist to:
- Talk about the problems you have related to PCS
- Learn how to cope with those problems in your life
Vocational Therapy
Vocational therapy may be needed to help you with learning skills and training to start, or resume, a career.
Neurotherapy, also called biofeedback is a painless treatment using computers to help you learn how to modify your brainwaves to improve attention and memory.
In some cases, a collection of blood in an area of bruising on the brain may require surgery, which may help resolve or improve symptoms.
There are no current guidelines to prevent PCS.
To help reduce your chance of getting a head injury, take these steps:
- Use the child car seat or booster seat based on your child's age and weight
- Use your seat belt every time you drive or ride in a motor vehicle
- Wear a helmet to protect your head while playing sports, or riding a motorcycle, bicycle, or snowmobile
- Use window guards to keep children from falling out of the window
- Use safety gates at the top and bottom of stairs

Every male wooters dream purchase hey, at least its not a refurb.
My wife is in for three...
Haha, oh wow.
Ok woot, now thats not right :\
Here ya go Limecat.
Oh my god...
Wow, it just got uncomfortable in here.
That looks dangerous....
It's a trap!!
May I be the first to say......YUCK!
pedi- ...what?...
I own one of these but I'm afraid to use it.
That just looks wrong
My wife thought it was some kind of XXX toy.

lol whut?
I bought one of these in the last woot-off and was very disappointed. The add-on tools hurt my feet when I used it and it was awkward to hold on to. Really guys. It's a pleasuring device disguised as a pedicure set. No joke.
Omelets made great!! What the heck?
does anyone own one? Does it work?
This product would be great for an adult film producer.
It's a DREMEL!!! For Feet!!! I'm laughing out loud, alone at my desk. How sad is that??!! :D
It looks like some sort of a S&M tool/toy.
You want me to put my foot in there?
I am not yet so incredibly fat that I cannot reach my feet for a pedicure.
I don't know what this is, but it's the last thing I want to see my proctologist holding.
Had a double-take there myself, thought I had clicked on the wrong bookmark there for a second... Hope none of these end up in the Bowl of Cereal, the missus certainly wouldn't understand.
Omelets made great.... Had to click to find out what this was....initial thumbnail on Wootalyzer looked positively pornographic.
taternuggets wrote:Here ya go Limecat.
Already own it. It's in my file cabinet filed under "scary crap."
this is made for the elderly or the large. i am confused. we're all relatively healthy, right?
It's like the first time you saw the shake-weight...you just can't look away...
yeah.. sure it is..
odd toy?
Good thing it's not a refurb, who knows where those have been.
I guess a pedicure isn't what I think it is. This sure doesn't look like it will help your feet. Perhaps it will make your feet curl if you use it right...
Dremil tool for the toes... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQF9kI2i98c
It's actually pretty cool for ppl who want to do their own pedicures. those are all the tips that salons use for mani/pedicures. The long handle makes it easier to reach the toes.
Here's a video of the commerical if anyone wants to see it in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vUJDswjN7I

I dont understand why the Texas is so oppose the obamacare. this Care is most benefit to Texas. the Texas got 23% percent un-healthy insured. and Texas also got top medical Tech. all over US. If the obamacare care passed the Texas goverment dont have to pay the medicane for poor people(Texas also got huge low income family in the US.)
maybe some republicans afraid the obamacare rule their buisiness in the Texas.
obamacare is good for ur nation to care who need a real help.
Increase the Taxes will be not a lot for regular income family. it just hurt the wealthy.

There has been considerable interest in stem cells as a potential novel therapy for PAH, particularly for patients with advanced disease that is not responding to available therapies. Stem cells may hold the promise to repair and regenerate the small arteries in the lung which are damaged or blocked in the disease. However, stem-like cells may also contribute to vascular remodeling and therefore well designed, rigorous clinical testing is required before we can make any determination of their potential role in the treatment of this disease.

I don't get this shirt. The Woot needs to come up with some better themes.

This wasn't a derby shirt. This is a daily, which was just picked by the woot staff.

Without proper refrigeration, Ice Cream Bar is doomed to melt anyways.
Only a fool would make their protective shell chocolatey. He had it coming.
http://www.giantitp.com/comics/oots0301.html First thing I thought of upon seeing this...
This is one of the best dailies I've seen in quite some time. Although, I will not be able to purchase it for a few days (waiting on a cheque). But, hey, more for Jublin. I wish this much thought/time/comedy/shock-value was put into every daily shirt. Then I might really go broke...
The first thing that came to mind when I saw this was "oh look, a Zombie fudge bar" By the way, after reading the description, I see that I was wrong. But how cute is a Zombie fudge bar!
Nice work Jublin. I am too much of a nerd and normally only buy ones that have Star Wars or video game references, but I am really wanting this shirt. I guess it is time to check the old bank account
The characters faces (especially the cup) remind me of "The Misadventures of Flapjack" Which makes me smile even more. I think I'll be buying one of these before the day is over.
Jublin, you are amazing, Big fan!
awe someone bit a chunk out of the poor popsicle!!! I wonder if he made it out??????
Great T-shirt!! I really love the expressions and overall feel of the characters. But... When I went to the movies this morning, I almost felt bad to get a popcorn...(haha)
Had to pick one of these up. Just hiiiilaaarious! Great print!
Am I the only one who thought the popsicle was some sort of bread at first glance?
Hahaha, I had to pick one up too. Love it!

Oh, inanimate objects get assigned emotions. Good one.
Not a buy for me, but infinitely funnier and more clever than pretty much every other "scared food" design I've seen. Congrats on the print!
I guess I'm a big fan of vintage refreshment theater food stuffs because "The Lobby Comes to You" is among one of my favorite Woots and this was a must buy as well.

White Sox confident they can turn things around
Red Sox ask Doubront to even up series in Windy City
The White Sox are three games below .500 and six games behind the American League Central-leading Indians, but they've remained confident, and recently, the results on the field have taken a turn for the better.
Chicago has won five of its last seven games and six of its last nine, including Monday's 6-4 win over the Red Sox at U.S. Cellular Field. The White Sox will play 16 of their next 22 games in Chicago, and perhaps more important, they've seen a number of players -- namely Adam Dunn, Alexei Ramirez, Alex Rios and Dayan Viciedo -- start to get hot at the plate.
"I think offensively we're starting to turn it around. As far as looking at games ahead, we're looking a lot more than we did before," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "For us, that's the most positive sign in the right direction."
But first, they'll have to put away a Red Sox club that hasn't made a habit of dropping series this season. Boston has won nine of 14 series, tied for the most in the Majors with Baltimore, Texas, St. Louis and the Yankees. The Red Sox, who went 69-93 last season, were 6-2 against the White Sox last season, their first season series victory against Chicago since 2007.
"Last year, they had some guys that were banged up and didn't start off well, and it didn't get any better as far as health-wise, and they made that big trade," Ventura said. "They're a different team than they were last year for a lot of different reasons."
One of those reasons is their improved starting rotation, which could be even better when Tuesday starter Felix Doubront finally gets into a groove. The lefty has allowed opponents to hit .307 against him this year, and he walked six Rays batters Thursday. He allowed just two runs, three hits and fanned seven while ending up with a no-decision when Will Middlebrooks hit a three-run double in the ninth to give Boston a 4-3 win.
"I finally figured out my pitches. My breaking balls, changeups and curveballs, I started getting the feeling back," Doubront said Thursday. "I wasn't that consistent, but I had good spin and my grip was good."
Doubront will get the start opposite White Sox lefty Jose Quintana, who is 2-1 with a 3.97 ERA this year but hasn't won since April 24. He allowed the Angels four earned runs in 6 2/3 innings on Thursday, a no-decision.
Red Sox: Bailey back in the bullpen
• Closer Andrew Bailey was activated before Monday's game, but manager John Farrell said he will be cautious not to overuse Bailey early on in his return from the disabled list. It seems unlikely that Bailey will pitch on consecutive days or three times in a four-day span anytime soon, but when he does take the mound, it will be as Boston's closer.
"Well, he makes our bullpen better," said Farrell. "Everyone will slot back in to a similar role that they've had when Andrew was still with us before the injury, so he'll go back into the closer's role. We will have to monitor just the workload and whether back-to-back is a good thing for him right now. That will all be a day-to-day situation."
• Shane Victorino left Monday's game early with tightness in his left hamstring.
White Sox: Dunn coming alive
• Dunn hit a three-run homer in the first inning Monday night, his 11th of the season. He's gone 9-for-25 with four homers, 13 RBIs and six runs scored over his last seven games, and Ventura pointed out that Dunn's recent uptick in production hasn't been the product of a drastic change in mechanics or approach.
"A lot of people look at mechanics and think that's just it. It has to be a combination of feeling good with the mechanics, having a clear mind and feeling positive swinging the bat," Ventura said. "Sometimes, mechanical stuff makes you feel better. Looking at them, you wouldn't see a noticeable difference in anything. He's not wide open or really closed or standing on his head. He's just gotten better."
• Rios extended his career-high hitting streak to 15 games with a first-inning single Monday. He's batting .383 (23-for-60) with four homers and 12 RBIs during the streak.
Worth noting
• Fifteen of Chicago's last 18 games have been decided by three runs or fewer. The White Sox are 9-6 in those games.
• The Red Sox have won six of their seven road series, the most road series victories in the Majors.

Of course, Jello wouldn't let the Democrats invade his home turf without a proper welcome! Right this second, the only confirmed DNC-related appearance we have for Jello is Ralph Nader's Denver Super Rally to Open the Debates on August 27 at 7pm at Magness Arena (University of Denver). As more confirmed events roll in, we will up date our tour dates page, our Facebook profile, and our MySpace page. Yes, we desperately need to set up an RSS feed of our news and tour dates to update you in a timely manner--in the mean time, please friend us on those sites (our MySpace blog is RSSable).
To see Jello in Denver without the possibility of being tear gassed or tasered, we suggest going to the Slim Cessna's Auto Club show on August 23 at the Bluebird Theater. Jello will be the emcee at the show. Did we mention that SCAC is the best live band, like, ever?
Last month, Jello Biafra was a featured speaker at the Last HOPE conference. The audio of his talk, as well as talks from other Last HOPE speakers, have been archived at the conference website. Go to the Talks page, then scroll down to "Jello Biafra" and you can right/control click on the 16 or 64 kbps mp3 audio to download.
P.S. Last week, we confirmed Jello's appearance as a judge at the US Air Guitar Championships on August 8. He had to cancel at the last minute due to an injury. Sorry to those who were looking forward to seeing him there.
The Internet is a beautiful thing. If you missed Billy Jam's interview with Jello on WFMU last Friday, the whole show is archived and available as a mp3 download. Go to http://archive.wfmu.org:5555/archive/BJ/ and right click/control click on the " bj080718.mp3" link near the bottom of the page to download, or just go here to listen. (Billy says it's better to use Firefox because the page can be wonky with Safari.) The playlist for the whole show is right here and you can post comments, too.
Many thanks to Billy Jam and WFMU!
Just a friendly reminder that Jello will be in the zombie flick RetarDEAD, which will premiere this weekend at the Victoria Theatre in San Francisco. The film will show at the theater on July 11, 12, and 13. (There isn't a scheduled Jello appearance at any of the screenings...)
Also, Jello will once again be a featured speaker at the Last HOPE conference in New York. What will Jello have to say at a conference for hackers (HOPE stands for "Hackers on Planet Earth")? Maybe he will touch upon the FISA Amendments Act of 2008, on which the Senate will vote todayish.
Why is Jello wearing a suit? Because he's the Mayor in the zombie flick RetarDEAD, which will premier on the weekend of July 11 at the Victoria Theatre in San Francisco.
For showtimes and ticket info, visit the Victoria Theatre calendar. The movie will be available on DVD as well; we'll most likely carry it in our mailorder, but for purchasing details and for future screenings in other cities, please visit the RetarDEAD site.
Here is the poster design for Biafra Five-O by Chuck Sperry of Firehouse Kustom Rockart. Chuck designed the cover for Jello's Machine Gun in the Clown's Hand spoken word album, as well as posters for past AT events. Both Chuck Sperry's and Nat Damm's posters will be available for sale at Biafra Five-O.
Nat Damm of Damm Damm Damm Design (and drummer extraordinaire of Akimbo) designed one of the two posters we'll make for Biafra Five-O. The other design will be by Chuck Sperry of Firehouse Kustom Rockart. Both limited edition posters will be available for sale at the shows (on 6/16 and 6/17), and the designs will be made into T-shirts.
On the Download blog at the Boston Phoenix has an exclusive story on Jello's response to radio pundit Michael Savage's recent rant about Ted Kennedy which made extensive use of "California Uber Alles." Quoth Jello: "I haven't read the details yet, but I'm aware of what Michael Savage did. Obviously he took my song way the hell out of context and did it deliberately. But the bigger issue is Savage himself and how the hell he gets away with stuff like saying this, and saying that people with AIDS should be put in concentration camps. And then when people protest at the station, he calls on his own listeners to come down and beat them up . . . ."
Complete story including more insight from Jello is right here.

Great design for mountain themed wedding
Love the Tender Mountain design! It was very easy to customize colors, wording, etc. The free sample option is ideal for verifying the custom design, including look and feel of paper and font size, before placing order.
Very simple and beautiful!
We are so happy with the Save the Date Magnets! The white and silver printing and the snowflakes makes it beautiful for a winter wonderland wedding.
Beautiful product... so pleased!
We just received our invitations yesterday, and we did our Save the Dates with MSW too - I couldn't be happier with how they turned out! This design is beautiful and very customizable to come out with exactly the look, feel, and style we wanted. The editor was easy to use, and it was simple to go through and make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. I definitely recommend this service, everything turned out looking beautiful and professional and was printed/shipped very quickly! Thank you, Magnet Street!
Beautiful invitations
The invitations were beautiful, high quality, and good value for the cost. They were delivered quickly in a very nice package. I was very pleased with the product and service and would order again from MagnetStreet.
Beautiful Results with Easy Personalization!
I had to make a fairly complex RSVP card, as we are having a destination wedding with several pre-wedding festivities. For someone without design experience, MagnetStreet made it so easy to customize. Additionally, the proof process was quick and easy. Highly recommend and would use again.

Columbus Zoo and Aquarium officials said a bloody feud Sunday between two female Asian elephants appears to be over disciplining a younger pachyderm.
Dusty Lombardi, the zoo's director of living collections, said 25-year-old Phoebe, mother of 3-year-old son, Beco, was correcting the young elephant when her 38-year-old "aunt," Connie, disapproved of the punishment and made her feelings known by shoving her, which started a fight between the two, the Columbus Dispatch reported.
The fracas was witnessed by zoo visitors, leaving some alarmed.
"It's 100 percent normal behavior that we'll always see with females and a young male," Lombardi told the Dispatch. "What made it noticeable was that Phoebe had broken her tusk in April, it hasn't healed and there was some blood."
Lombardi said the elephants were separated for a short time, but that zookeepers did not change their exhibit or social grouping.
"Beco knows how to play Connie and Phoebe, just like a human kid," Lombardi told the newspaper. "He's a punk. But we want him to be. It's healthy for him."

Why was that interesting?
Phoronix: Transmission 2.80 Offers Up Various Changes
Transmission, the multi-platform open-source BitTorrent client shipped by a number of Linux distributions, has been updated to version 2.80 and it brings with it a wide variety of changes...
Why was that interesting?
My problem with transmission (and all other torrent downloaders) always been two folds. I use it as a daemon and want to have it working as a daemon by default. With that in mind, I have a laundry list of features I want it to have once you start considering it running as a daemon:
I want transmission to keep downloading while I log off. (DONE)
I want it to start downloading when I boot up. (DONE)
I want per-user downloads that can't be stopped by another unprivileged user. (NOT DONE)
I want per-user hidden downloads so one user won't be able to see what the other is downloading if unprivileged to do so. (NOT DONE)
I want per user storage and bandwidth quotas. (NOT DONE)
It really all comes down to transmission not really fitting in with the multi-user environment. The way torrent protocol works, you only want one client per machine. Likely even per IP. I suspect it's the real reason why companies had troubles adopting torrents as a distribution model for files. They just can't set it up like they would an FTP server with multiple users.
I personally blame the distributions and not the devs in this one. If they were to package it as a daemon by default so when someone "sudo apt-get transmission", he will have a working daemon and a transmission group he only needs to add himself to, the devs would have started hearing more about the multi user concerns.
To me transmission sucks because the gui main loop often blocks on the torrent I/O which makes it randomly non-responsive while the down/upload speed drops, it's the only bittorrent client I have this problem (for years). So I try to touch the GUI as rarely as possible.
The daemon uses (naturally non-blocking) RPC sockets to communicate with a variety of GUIs: Qt, GTK... Python, C, Pascal...
This is the one I currently use:
It's in C and uses GTK.
I used to use this one which is more feature complete:
It's possibly better for most use cases, but it's in Pascal so I can't play around it as much as I like.
Most of these GUIs are more feature rich then the default provided one. The ones I've mentioned are also mostly less buggy. You can even use different GUIs at the same time from the same, or another machine.
I have many of your concerns, but I'm a happy user of transmission (v1.52). Its just a matter os using individual transmission-cli for every download, and launching them with nohup. For example (with upload limit of 20kB/s, $port has a non-used non-privileged port for use in this download):
cd /path/to/new/download/dir
nohup transmission-cli --port $port -u 20 -w "/path/to/new/download/dir" --finish /home/user/bin/touch-finished.sh /path/to/file.torrent 2>> nohup.out >>nohup.out
After hacking some scripts it can be very convenient (this describes my current setup):
1. Having a "watched" directory to save the .torrent files for automatic download (or a file with the suffix .magnet with the magnet link; firefox can be configured to call a script to do so when clicking a magnet)
2. A script in crontab running every 5 minutes scans that directory to start new torrent with transmission-cli and nohup
3. Every is keped tidy; there is a download directory with a subdirectory for every torrent, inside that directory is the nohup.out with the download stats and the torrent contents
4. An utility script to list current download status (mixes a ps and does a tail of the nohup.out of every active downlaod)
5. Another utility script to stop seeding a certain torrent
- You can stop a download killling the corresponding transmission-cli process
- You can pause downloads sending a SIGSTOP and resume with SIGCONT
- The scripts have "inteligence" as to when stop seeding (for example, after seeded 2 times the data size of 3 days)
- The crontab script can restart a torrent if it is not "running" and it doesn't have finished downloading (this restarts downloads after a computer reboot)
So if you are a power user, transmission-cli is sufficient for resolving those problem (although it may be non-optimal for magnets, as it may degrade the performance of PEX as every torrent is "independent").
Ive never had a problem with Transmissions GUI (Gtk) freezing, even on a low power Atom computer. However the new version has Remove the most frequent thread locks in libtransmission in the release notes; maybe that will help.
Why not use a seperate daemon for each user? Unix has user seperation already, best not to reïmplement this again in the daemon.
Same argument as above.
Linux has per user quota support (have never used it though). I think you can also use per use bandwidth throttling using tc and iptables (mark user packets).
I definitly would not ever want to have the same www browser process being used by several different users.
I disagree, with the reasons mentioned above.
It's not how it's packaged, it's how people use it.
Sadly it seems the protocol itself doesn't lend to multiple instances running in the same machine. We've tried different loads and setups including foregoing all firewalls and security for the sake of testing. But, the clients just misbehaved and at rare cases even seg faulted. This wasn't just transmission but other implementations as well.
At first, there were forwarding issues since each instance needs to open a whole lot of ports and just doesn't scale over 2-5 clients depending on the number of active torrents. Already some gigabyte (expensive at the time) cards and switches were unboxed since the overhead started to build up across the lan. This was already in the works so it didn't raise the red light.
Then, we had some initial success with layer 2 switches to favor http and ftp per machine and establish quotas. But much of the network wasn't l2 so cost was unacceptable.
Since we're not an open network, we decided to try and manage each client's machine separately instead. This already is something most companies wouldn't do. Never the less, we tried down regulating and limiting individual clients in each machine; To say, 10 peers per torrent and 50 overall connections and other figures. But, it either bottlenecked the network to the point that nothing was downloading and you couldn't even surf the web, or it killed the torrenting specifically.
I even clearly remember the one setup that seemed to work, only the CIFS turned out unusable... Just weirdness all around. And mind you we weren't just doing just the usual amateurish protocol analyses. One of the guys was an ex signal processing dev and he run all sort of strange voodoo trying to figure out what was wrong. He's actually the one that said that the "peer in p2p means a separate lan ip". When I suggested a single daemon on a dedicated machine for the lan-wan with FTP-like user privileges. The decision was against it since the advantage versus FTP was not applicable for such a small firm. Obviously, I ignored the "decision" and went ahead to try and set it up only to discover that while many FTP daemons had their own optional user management, the bittorrent daemons did not.
TL;DR: Been there, failed that. Like Samba and the various FTP servers (ProFTPD comes to mind), virtual users are necessary for more complex networks. It's the same pros\cons, and it's just as necessary. I suspect there is a way to still pull off a couple of daemons on the same physical machine, but I'm not convinced it will scale with firewalling and security without some real hardware costs. Still, I'd like to see a working setup...
It's still too simple, I'll stick to Vuze even though it's written in Java... It's still the only torrent app that doesn't completely oversimplify things.

If you have a chance, do take her class, she is a wonderful teacher and the technique is very useful. I believe Robin Atkins also teaches a finger weaving technique that this product can be used for.

William Wyler's Love Letter to His Comrades in Arms: The Best Years of Our Lives
In the opening shot of William Wyler's The Best Years of Our Lives (1946), CAPT Fred Derry walks into an airport terminal in hopes of catching a flight home to Boone City, USA. Upon reaching the clerk at the counter, Fred learns there is a several day wait for a commercial flight, even though he's a returning war hero. A wealthy middle-aged businessman then charges up next to Fred, interrupts his conversation with the airline clerk, and confirms his seat on the next flight regardless of the extra cost. He barely acknowledges CAPT Derry, no nod or a "thank you for your service." The air is thick with rotten apathy, and it's this scene that signals the audience is in for a different kind of war movie. William Wyler, himself a WWII veteran, saw America's shift in attitude immediately following the war. The wells of patriotism had been tapped dry and those keeping the fires burning on the home front were tired of making sacrifices. Once the servicemen returned home, the warm welcome was short lived. After fighting for years in the Pacific and Europe, these soldiers were expected to resume life as normal almost immediately. Definitely easier said than done. The transition back to civilian life was difficult for many of the soldiers displaced by the war, and Wiliam Wyler wanted to pay tribute to their post-war struggles.

By Rebecca Silverstein
While we love watching Alyson Hannigan every week on "How I Met Your Mother" and we can't wait to see her in "American Reunion," our favorite of her many roles is mom to her daughter, Satyana. And this weekend, motherhood took center stage for the actress as she helped Pull-Ups training pants show parents how fun potty training can be with the Potty Dance! Keep reading as we chat with Alyson about her latest pregnancy, why she doesn't have a nanny and more.
Wonderwall: Congrats on your pregnancy! How is your daughter, Satyana, dealing with the idea of having a new brother or sister?
Alyson Hannigan: Oh, she's super, super excited! She is already a great big sister, and she's very excited about the baby. She rubs lotion on my belly and talks to the baby, and it's very, very sweet, so we are very excited.
WW: How did you and your husband, Alexis Denisof, break the news to her?
AH: We sat down, [and] we were like, "OK, it's time tell her," and we were all emotional. I don't know what we said, but basically we told her she was going to get to be a big sister. She was like, "OK! Can we read a book?" We were like, huh, that was obviously bigger for us then it was for her. And about five minutes later, she asked questions and then she really got it, but it wasn't like some profound moment we were expecting. "Wow, I'm gonna be a big sister!" No, that came later. It took her a little while to process, but then she was really on board. The next day, she was like "Mommy, do you still have the baby in your belly?" She would ask me that for a few weeks.
WW: Are you guys hoping for a boy or girl?
AH: Honestly, I did not care one way or the other. As long as the baby's healthy and happy, I'm very, very happy. We do know it is -- we haven't said yet, but we do know.
WW: How is the pregnancy going?
AH: It's good! I'm more tired this time around, mainly because I have an almost 3 year old that won't let me nap, but actually it's going pretty well after the first trimester. The first trimester was not terrible, but it was definitely harder then the first [time].
WW: Do have any different cravings this time around?
AH: I actually had stronger cravings the first time around then I do this time. I feel like this baby is very mellow. I have more likes then I normally do -- like, things that didn't really appeal to me before, I like now. But with my first child, I would get a craving, and it was like, "Get out of my way, I am going to find this food!" But with this time, it's more like, "Oh yeah, that would be nice."
AW: What's your favorite time of day with Satyana?
AH: I love all of it really. She's just such a fun person to hang out with. I just love when we are playing, and she's so creative and imaginative. She'll make up games and songs and dances. It's just a joy to be around her.
WW: What's the best motherhood tip you've been given?
AH: The best motherhood tip would probably be to make things fun. That's why the Potty Dance Party is right up my alley because if you can make a task fun, then it's just going to be a lot easier to get it done for all of you: for mom, dad and the kid. It's just being creative about things you to need to accomplish and how to make them fun.
WW: How do you balance motherhood and filming "How I Met Your Mother"?
AH: My husband is incredibly supportive, and that's wonderful because we don't have a nanny, so it's just the two of us doing it. It's definitely hard to balance at times, but we just make it work. We have a big chalkboard that's divided into calendar dates and that's how we live. We're like, "OK, let's not over schedule things." We still want to have enough time to have our family time. We just try to balance it as best we can. We have days where it's like, "OK, that day wasn't so balanced," but then we'll make up for it by not having anything during the weekend or just having "us" time.
WW: That's very un-Hollywood of you to not have a nanny.
AH: Boy, have there been times where we are like, "What are we doing? We need a nanny!" And right now, we have one person who can babysit because all of our other babysitters went to college. But we have the one person that will babysit once a week for us, so we can still have date night. But we love it! Luckily, we are in the position, as two actors, where we can do that. A lot of people don't have that option. Both parents do have to go to work, but fortunately for us, it's OK, and he was willing to take a backseat for his career so that we could all three go to my work and do it ourselves. We'll see what happens with the second one though. We'll definitely need somebody!
WW: On Saturday, you threw a Pull-Ups Potty Dance Party to help show how easy potty training can be. How did you get involved with Pull-Ups Training Pants?
AH: Well, Pull-Ups have saved me! My daughter absolutely adores them, so it was just a natural partnership. And when they asked my to host the Potty Dance Party, I was thrilled because who doesn't love a party? And my daughter absolutely loves to dance, so it was just a great way for parents to pick a day and start potty training, it can be daunting!
WW: Does your daughter do the Potty Dance?
AH: She was doing it this morning, and hopefully she'll want to do it today. Her dancing is anything from, yes, a choreographed dance, but also she will say, "Oh, mommy, I'm dancing," but will be doing something a lot more like yoga, where she's just basically stretching her legs in weird positions, but she thinks that's dance, so I encourage it.
WW: How did your experience potty training her go?
AH: It started earlier then I thought. She was definitely showing interest, so I would put her on the potty, and she would go, then we would celebrate and make a huge deal out of it. Once I decided, "OK, we are going to pick a day, and we are going to start, and we are going to all commit to it," then it went really easily because we made it such a great experience. It was a big celebration every time she successfully made the potty. We still haven't done the nighttime potty training, but she's very good during the day. We haven't had an accident in a long time. Knock on wood!
WW: You also have "American Reunion" coming up. When you started the series, did you think it would turn into four movies?
AH: I had no idea! No, not at all. And even if there was talk of the sequel in the contract of the first one, I said, "Well, my character wouldn't be in the sequel" and they agreed, so they took my sequel clause out. She leaves in the first movie, so there wouldn't be any more. And here we are, four films later, still doing it. I think it's fantastic! It's just as good as the first one, if not better.
WW: Who do you think has changed most in the cast?
AH: I feel like I've changed the most because I've gone from my early 20s to now. I'm just a complete mom, and I love it some much. I feel like I'm the most boring one because I really just get a kick out of being a mom and, "Hey, anybody want to go to a potty dance party?" This is what gets me excited.
WW: Well, the potty dance party is kind of like a dance club.
AH: It is a dance club! It's the dance club I want to be at!
