About this item
Skywalker Trampolines 15' Square Trampoline and Enclosure Combo is designed with an extra heavy duty galvanized steel frame for years of jumping and bouncing fun.
The Skywalker Trampolines Platinum Edition 15' Square Trampoline and Enclosure is designed with an extra heavy gauged rust resistant galvanized steel frame. The large square shape provides more usable jumping surface area than the traditional 15 or even 16 foot round trampolines. The innovative enclosure design features Skywalker Trampoline's patented enclosure system attaching the enclosure netting directly to the jumping surface using a button-hole feature at each jump mat V-ring. This eliminates dangerous gaps without the need to thread any ropes. Along with the extra heavy rust resistant frame, all materials are made with extra thick UV resistant materials. Superior bounce is provided by the 84 large coil springs over 7" in length plus specially designed springs with an extra wide diameter strategically placed in the center of the frame on each side.
- Frame assembly uses unique T-Bracket technology to secure the enclosure frame to the trampoline for added stability
- Extra-wide, UV-protected, vinyl-coated safety pad covers the frame and springs and attaches securely with several reinforced stretch bands and hook clasps
- 84 large coil springs over 7" in length plus 12 extra wide diameter sprigs are strategically placed in the center of the frame for added bounce
- Stay-put enclosure design attaches to the jumping mat at the base of the enclosure netting using a button hole feature eliminating gaps without threading ropes
- Steel frame is padded with soft foam for increased safety and durability
- Assembly instructions included and can easily be achieved by 2-3 adults

Session heats up as legislators take on texting, death penalty, shared parenting
The 2014 Session is now in full swing. There are currently 186 bills filed in the Senate and 261 bills in the House. One of the major topics of discussion this week – and it will be a continued topic – is Medicaid Expansion. Medicaid is the government program funded by federal and state dollars to pay for medical care for all ages within certain income limits.Current social issues that will be addressed are repealing the death penalty, prenatal care for illegal immigrants, shared parenting bill, and requiring the drug testing for welfare recipients.There is still much discussion around Common Core Educational standards. This week bills will be considered to require a study and analysis of the financial, fiscal and economic impacts of implementation of the Common Core Standards. Several bills were introduced in the area of Game, Fish and Parks. There is a non-meandered lakes bill, which would provide private property rights to citizens. House Bill 1209 provides for reimbursement of property taxes paid on certain private lands inundated by the waters of non-meandered lakes. A bill will be brought regarding the allowance of certain family members of residents to obtain nonresident water fowl privileges to provide preferences for certain nonresident veterans and to establish a penalty.A few texting bills will be introduced as well as gaming bills related to the city of Deadwood.I appreciate those of you that have emailed and called me concerning various issues. Please continue to contact me, and I will do my best to get back with you.

I had bought the first hat several years ago and it is still in very good condition, light weight, very confortable and most importantly: breathable; so I decided to buy the second one couple months ago just in case I lose the first one. I live in Sugar Land (Texas) which is very hot and humid in summer. I has tried several different hats and this is THE BEST!
Most Liked Negative Review
If you have short neck this works!
This hat was comfortable but the skirt on the hat is too short to actually shade his neck! He purchased another hat with longer skirt. I am disappointed.

Didn't for me. All I got was a black screen.
Phoronix: NVIDIA 270.30 Works With X.Org Server 1.10 Final
Due to RandR 1.4 being pulled from X.Org Server 1.10, the video driver ABI had to be bumped to again, and this was at the last possible minute with X.Org Server 1.10 being released just days later. For the open-source X.Org drivers this just means recompiling the driver for the latest binary interface. For the binary blobs, this means NVIDIA and AMD must put out new releases...
Didn't for me. All I got was a black screen.
Don't use 270.30 for Ubuntu, use 270.29. It's only available via the FTP. They dropped X server ABI version 9.0 compatibility and ubuntu natty hasn't got version 10 yet.
Who said I was using Ubuntu ? Even my name suggests I use Arch.
E: Taken that was a reply to me.
I wasn't assuming you were using any distro in particular, I was just posting about the issue that affects ubuntu so other users who come here can read it and know what happens on natty narwhale I like to run pretty bleeding edge distros.
Works fine here on openSUSE (11.3 and 11.4). As does the new Cuda 4 driver (270.27).
Anyone tested if:
- multimonitor vsync
- rotated multimonitor no 3D accel
- SLI performance
- hw overclock for fermi
have been fixed to date? This isn't troll question.

What Does the Downton Abbey Cast Look Like Out of Costume? (PHOTOS)
full size
The Cast of Downton Abbey Season 3
On the second episode of Downton Abbey's third season, Lord Grantham (Hugh Bonneville) and Matthew (Dan Stevens) are forced to attend a white tie affair in black tie. Upon seeing her son so horrifically underdressed (he's in a tuxedo, mind you), the Dowager Countess snaps, "I'm so sorry, I thought you were a waiter."
Fortunately for the cast members, such strict fashion rules don't apply in real life — and the downstairs folks own more than two outfits.
With the Season 3 finale happening this Sunday, February 17, click through to see the denizens of Downton out of costume!

In the dentist office waiting room on Wednesday a mom couldn't get her son to put his coat on when it was time to go. He wanted to play with the big activity box thing and had no interest in anything his mom said. He was maybe three or four? And she said, "Don't make me spank you in front of these ladies. I don't think they'd like that." And I just looked down at my knitting and wished so hard I was invisible right that very moment. I hated that she brought me- a stranger- into this. Her kid didn't want to put his coat on. I deal with that every live long day. So you know, I go over to my child and just put the dang coat on. And if I have to, I physically pick them up and carry them to the car. But instead she left him, she said "bye" and she walked completely out the building and then I looked up and watched him. I wanted to tell him that he better listen to his mom, but really I wanted to hug him. And he still played until he raised his head and peeked at the door and then he ran. He ran to find her.

I don't agree with publicly shaming your child... Buuuut I reached a point in my pregnancy where I couldn't physically make my toddler do things anymore. There were a lot more verbal commands... And threats of punishment. But I never announce punishment loudly, and I've never left a building. That said, early morning (5am) snuggles are the best, even if he has to return to his room because he never falls asleep with us.
ReplyDeleteAh... I've been there. On both sides, (kind of). When I'm there as a witness, I remember to TRY to think that perhaps the lady is having a bad day. Maybe the dentist totally wigs her out. Because on another day, gentle old me might be the one losing my stuff and yelling at all of my kids to just STOP and BEHAVE.
Because we've all done something... Anything that another mother would look at and be like, woah. And even if it never happened in public? I'm positive even the most gentle among us has lost it once or twice.
That woman may do that constantly. But it helps my heart a little to pretend maybe she slipped. And that her capacity for grace is having a very human day.
Because really, I pray that others will think the same of me next time.Repliesnice response, I thought I was an ogre. My son was very easy at that age. I never had a problem like that. Then my grandson (my husband is older than me by 20 years, so I am a grandma at 37), well my grandson is ...independent. He rolls over his mom and other grandma. Me, it has taken more verbal gymnastics than I care to admit. I have had to be more creative. With blended family issues, I can't physically make him put on a jacket, etc. because it "looks" like I am not being fair to my "step" grandchild. argh.
Sometimes I leave Libby like that. I have a crying baby in my arms, and she won't come with me, so I leave. But never out of the building. I go to where she can't see me. Although, she usually just watches me go, then goes back to playing. The girl has no fear!
My heart breaks for that little boy though too, don't spank him. don't bring strangers into your discipline. ugh. this parenting thing is hard.my daughter {3} still sneaks in my room every night, and in rythm finds the small of my back where the whole of her back fits in just so. Last night I wrestled the thoughts that I should perhaps get her out of that habit, but then I knew for the rest of my life, I will miss that perfectly placed warm. So instead, i sank into her and the dance us mothers and daughters face...the loving and the pulling. That's the whole issue I find, even with this boy you mention. As a mom, when to love and when to pull your child along in their journey just a bit.
ReplyDeleteRepliesTara - that is beautiful and so true - when to love and when to pull your child along a little - pretty much sums up the whole thing we call "parenting"
Two things I always try to remember when I'm struggling with my little ones are to never threaten anything I won't actually follow through on and to never humiliate them. The first thing can undermine my position of authority and leader in their life and the second can undermine my position of friend and protector in their life, not to mention what it does to my children's own self-worth.
No judging. Just observation. I've been all those people, including the boy. I mean, I did have some thoughts about how Id handle it differently but who knows if any of us does it right or wrong.
StephRepliesI don't think any of us do it right all the time, we all have moments we wish we could do-over. My heart was smote a bit when I read this post at first - for just that thing, those moments from yesterday that I'd like a second chance at. This observation was a good reminder to me to put those two things I always need to remember back in the forefront of my mind.
I totally agree - the mother shouldn't have threatened the little boy, and I'm definitely against spanking. But I have walked away from my son in similar situations with plenty of warning, "I know you want to stay here and play. I can tell you're having a lot of fun, but it's time to go to the car. I need you to come with me. Okay. I'm walking toward the door, etc."
I have a sixteen month old as well as a two and a half year old, so I can't physically haul both of them to the car. The mother wasn't locking him in a room. The boy had every opportunity to go with her (like he did).
Thank you Jen! I agree, I hope when I'm having a difficult time other mothers will be empathetic and nonjudgmental. There's nothing worse than struggling to hold it together in public and have a set of glaring eyes on you.RepliesI definitely wasn't glaring- I kept my head down the whole time, but felt like I was put in a very awkward and uncomfortable position. Like I was really trying to be invisible, like I shouldn't have been there at all. It felt intimate, I guess. If that makes sense?
StephThis spring I had my (at the time) 3yo and 18mo leaving the doctor's office while Chris handled the 13yo getting a very much unwanted shot. It was raining, and Zach wanted to go back inside with Dad and big sister. So he laid down on the pavement. The wet rainy pavement. I contemplated walking away, decided too dangerous. Contemplated picking him up and physically dragging him to the car. Too dangerous. So I stood there, in the rain, with the baby in my arms, and let him just lay there in the ground. A very kind bystander lady offered to hold my daughter so I could deal with him, and I politely told her, "No thank you. He will eventually get tired of being wet and cold." She probably thought I was a moron, but sure enough, 30 seconds later, he stood up and walked calmly with me to the car. I seriously thought I was going to lose it in those 2-3 minutes haha! Funny now, but not so funny then.
I was that mom last night trying to get Jessica to just.GO.to.sleep. Then I was the mom who just scooped her up let her sleep with us when she was fighting sleep again in the middle of the night. Even though it makes me not sleep and I hurt all over from having her practically lay on top of me.
You have encouraged me these last 4 years since I began reading your blog...in my parenting, my faith and how to be a friend...just wanted you to know that:)
JenI have been that mom, and as the rest of my kids have come along, I have changed (thankfully so!). My mantra: there is nothing I have to do or nowhere I have to be that is more important than being kind to my children. Sometimes I fail miserably, but for the most part it has helped me to stop yelling and stop being an irrational jerk to my people.
If my son doesn't want to put his coat on, I won't fight him. But I do put the coat (and hat and mittens, too) under my arm as I walk out the door. He will get cold, that's a natural consequence, and it provides us with a teachable moment. And with my people, it usually takes only once or twice to get the message.These moments in time, really, these observation periods when I'm not in the thick of the fight, the heat of the moment with my kids, probably teach me more about who I want to be than the actual moments I'm immersed in the battle of wills. And so does this moment shared. Thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteIn those situations I want to hug the mom as well as the child. Raising children is such a hard endeavor...but we can make it easier and enjoyable, but it has to be a choice and often we don't know how because our parents didn't do it that way either.
ReplyDeleteI took my youngest to target the other day. my two year old daughter. she was dressed so cute and had received many compliments on how adorable she is. and then as we were walking hand in hand we passed another mother and her 4{ish?} year old son. he was crying & making a scene. as they approached us his mother said to him "look. see the pretty girl? she's going to stare at you. what will she think of you crying?"
I wanted to tell that mom that my daughter, my beautiful daughter that we are trying to adopt is the most non-judgmental person you will ever meet... and that she doesn't stare when others are in pain. she looks away. because she has experienced pain I will never know...
so next time you want to shame your son... please don't use my daughter to do it.Yes! Please do not bring ME into your disciplinary ways, I have enough of my own, thanks! ;)
I've walked away from my kids too, to get them to come along but I've NEVER and never will, embarrassed them by saying I was going to spank them in front of others. Obviously it was an empty threat, which makes it all the worse...Oh my heart. Reading that situation from your point of view, as a bystander rather than a participant, really allowed me to see the bigger picture. I've certainly been that parent, no doubt about it. I need to pause, like this, sometimes, and realize how my babies feel in those moments, too. Thanks for opening my eyes a bit today.
ReplyDeletewhen I was a young mom of 21, I had a very strong willed first child. He still is that way. This post made me think of myself way back then. I was impatient and didn't realize what I sounded like until I heard another mom do it in a store.
I felt so guilty and ashamed of what I must have sounded like to my young baby boy at that age of this boy.
I learned a lot in 11 years.I'm still learning.
EvAh, yes, the lesson of observing others. I remember one time (pre-kids) when I grabbed lunch with a few coworkers at McDonalds. While we were sitting there, two moms were attempting to have lunch as their kids ate/played/fought. One little girl was having a major melt-down while her mom held her baby sister. It was chaotic, but I watched one mom ask her friend to hold the baby. She then gently walked her daughter outside of the restaurant, knelt down to her level, and talked to her. She didn't ignore her or yell at her. She gave her what she needed...attention. I can not tell you how many times I replay that moment in my mind -- even now, 8 years later. There is so much we can learn by watching others -- both good and band.
In the end, we are all just trying to do better. I think that's your point here. This gave you an opportunity to observe, reflect, and perhaps confirm (or even change) what works for you and your family.f*ck. this just punched me in the gut. and i'm not sure if it is because of that boy or because i see a little too much of myself in that woman, albeit in different clothing. i don't spank and never threaten any kind of physical discipline. but i definitely use a tone of voice that would make me pause if i heard another woman do it. and i definitely use scare tactics at times. and sometimes, i even do the worst: i don't follow through. oh, those empty threats. hanging around my shoulders....making life harder.
we're all doing our best, aren't we? it's just that sometimes our best is pure shite.It is funny, when you see it in other people, it is such a cringe-worthy moment in so many ways. For the kids, for the frustrated parent, for yourself (myself).
Cringe. That's why we need each other so badly. Women need other women, to learn examples from on how (or how not) to behave, act, react, respond.

Oberholtzer to face Red Sox in first home start
Astros' rookie on mound against Lackey, who comes off strong July
Both the Red Sox and the Astros head to Houston from afar to begin a three-game set Monday at Minute Maid Park.
After wrapping up a 5-2 homestand (and 13 of 16 games at home out of the All-Star break) with a win against Arizona on Sunday, the Sox will play 16 of their next 19 on the road.
It is the opposite story for the Astros, who are finally home after a brutal 11-day, 10-game road outing. Houston went 2-8 on the trip, getting swept by the Twins in Minnesota over the weekend to finish it.
Boston swept the Astros in four games at Fenway Park during April, and the visit to Minute Maid is the Red Sox's first since Houston moved to the American League.
With the Sox in the thick of another playoff race, they could use a repeat performance against the Astros. Starting pitcher John Lackey would sure like one.
He held Houston to five hits and one run over six innings for his first win of the season back in April, and he enters Monday with a strong month behind him.
Lackey recorded four quality starts in a half-dozen July starts, making it into the seventh inning in all six while posting a 3.67 ERA. He was strong his last time out, getting a no-decision while allowing three runs over seven innings in a win against the Mariners.
The Red Sox won that game, 5-4, in 15 innings, capping another comeback win in a season full of them.
As the Astros' season has floundered the last six weeks, holding on to a lead has seemed impossible at times.
But a bright spot for Houston over the last week came behind Monday's starter, Brett Oberholtzer, who put the bullpen in a no-pressure situation.
On Wednesday in his first Major League start, he limited the Orioles to three singles over seven scoreless frames as the Astros posted 11 runs in a romp.
The team has put him in the rotation for now in place of the traded Bud Norris, and Monday marks his first home start.
"I'm excited, and I'm looking forward to it," Oberholtzer said. "I'm going to pitch to my strengths and see what their weaknesses and strengths are. That's what pitching is about, making pitches at the right time. For me, it's keeping speedy guys off base and making the power guys hit weak contact and try to eat up innings."
Oberholtzer came up through the Braves' system as a starter and remained a starter after being traded to the Astros, so a chance to pitch in the rotation in the big leagues is something he does not take lightly.
"It's everything I asked for," he said. "With this organization, there's no easy steps to the big leagues. You've got a lot of young talent that's pushing us. I see it, and hopefully everyone else does and knows there's no guarantees. For me, it's work hard day in and day out and earn an opportunity and take advantage of it. It's going out there and seizing the moment and keep pitching and hopefully get our team the win."
Astros: Grossman back at leadoff
Given how well he has swung the bat since he was called up from the Minor Leagues on July 27, outfielder Robbie Grossman was moved back into the leadoff spot in the lineup for Sunday's series finale against the Twins at Target Field. He went 2-for-5 and scored a run.
Grossman is now on a 12-for-25 streak with a home run, three walks and two stolen bases since he was recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City.
"I think it more has to do with the way Grossman has been swinging the bat," manager Bo Porter said before Sunday's game. "Once you go through the lineup once, it's almost like [Jonathan] Villar, Grossman and [Jose] Altuve are hitting 1-2-3."
Grossman spent about a month with the Astros earlier this year and hit .198 in 111 at-bats in that span while batting mostly leadoff. For the season, Grossman is hitting .215 in the leadoff spot and .381 in the ninth spot.
Red Sox: Nava on paternity leave
The Red Sox will be without outfielder Daniel Nava during the Houston series, as he will not travel with the team because his wife is scheduled to deliver the couple's first child.
Nava, who has been placed on the paternity leave list, will rejoin the Sox on Thursday for the start of a four-game series in Kansas City.
The Red Sox are allowed to fill that roster spot, and manager John Farrell said the team would most likely use it for a pitcher.
This could allow right-hander Brandon Workman, who is transitioning to the bullpen and ranked the club's No. 11 prospect by MLB.com, to be called back up.
Worth noting
• Boston is 11-2 all-time against the Astros.
• Houston has not won back-to-back games since June 15-16 against the White Sox, a span of 40 games. The Astros are 10-30 during that stretch.

Monster Cable 700CV Written By Thomas, Council Bluffs, IA. on Monday, July 06, 2009 As usual Monster cables perform perfectly as they always have.
Component Video cables Written By George, Annville, PA on Wednesday, November 12, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Now THIS is one heavy, substantial set of cables! (All three are molded together in a flat cable, with the ends separated for ease of connection.) I have both a Blu-Ray DVD player, and an older DVD player that I use for non-Blu-Ray discs because a) I HAD it and it was a GREAT player, b) start up time is three times faster than Blu-Ray (so what, right?) c) energy costs are slightly less than Blu-Ray, and most of my DVDs are not Blu-Ray (again, so what?) d) my HDTV is unable to keep up with the upconversion to 1080i, as it does not have 120 Hz and 24 frame capability--so I decided to use and keep BOTH components. But these Monstercable Component Video cables are just wonderful. Very secure connection with their proprietary "turbine cut" gold-plated connectors. Their holding power is unbelievable! (Hint: I use a spray-on cleaner and connectivity enhancer before I make ANY connection! Even with gold connectors!) But, like I reviewed the HDMI cables from Crutchfield, you NEED a two meter length to properly flex and bend around your components! It makes NO sense to pay MORE for a technology when you can get BETTER technology (HDMI) cheaper. Therefore, consider these cables as the "ne plus ultra" for Component Video!!

"Too much detail- the story gets lost"
This becomes very boring in parts. The history is described in a gods way though but the writers forgot the were writing fiction not fact.
"Not for me"
I read about this book and thought it sounded like a great time travel story. But, no. Unfortunately I downloaded all four books before reading the first one - big mistake. The element of time travel has nothing of science fiction in it - it sort of just happened when the protagonist walked past a rock. In fact I missed it completely and had to ask my spouse how time travel occurred (she also listened to the book and was equally disappointed). After the first sex act I gave up. My spouse, who has a little more patience, listened for some more time, but eventaully gave up, very much for the same reasons as I did. This is something like "Clan of the Cave Bears", althought set in more recent times. The protagonist is more interested in sex than in anything else. This is a book for people who need to spice up their life with historical sex stories. Bad, really bad. Not for me.
"Rock history"
If you were alive and experienced music in 1970 this is a must read. I have purchased copies of this book for all of my friends who turned 60 last year and this year - all of them loved it. A great story about great musicians. I wish I were 17 again..... and I wish they made music like that today....anyway this book is a great time travel.
"Italy in our hearts"
A really good story - well written, well told and well narrated about something that might have happened once in Italy (or didn't you read somewhere it did actually happen?) Anyway, this story of a group of unlikely friends and acquaintances, what they went through in Italy and then in Hollywood is very, very charming. It sort of blurs the lines between what-you-know-reality and might-have-happened-reality. Delightful is the best word I can think of describing it in only one word.
"Depressing but important"
The narration of this book is somewhat overdone (overenthusiastic) and gets irritating after a while. I had to listen to anther audiobook in between to not get too put off. But what the book has to tell is important, even if it is not a happy story. Our politicians should be forced to read this book, as it is full of examples of short-sighted political decisions that will compromise the future of our children. But it is also full of good examples of where "normal" people have acted in a way to ensure a better future for all. This book should be put in the hands of all high school students, to ensure that the next generation does not repeat the short-sightedness of our generation. The world can still be saved. It is not too late, but we have to act much more decisively and much faster. The message to all good people is: you can do a lot of things to help the world to be thriving place place even in the future. The message to all less good people is: read and repent!
"Simply fabulous"
This was the first book by Donna Tartt that I read (or listened to). The story is great and beleivable in all its tiny details. I think it pictures very well of how it is to be raised today in the Western society. You don't have to lose your parents (or even one of them) to end up on the somewhat shady side of life. You might just as well have parents who are (physically or mentally) absent and who does not think child-rearing is a particluar interesting topic. But kids survive, even if they don't thrive, or succeed in the "normal" way. The story is very well told, does never get boring and it is brought to a very logical end. I loved this book and will look for others by the author. The narration is also great.
"A great read"
If you should be tired of reading stuff about Michael Connelly's favorite detective Harry Bosch, this is a book for you. This is abook about unexpected hero Cassie Black and her counterpart the grim Jack Karch. Both are criminals (at least ex-ditto) and both arouse sympathy (at least to a certain extent) in the reader. It's suspense all the way, and impossible to stop listening to. I would like to see a movie made out if this book. Hats off once more to Michael Connelly.
"Nothing really happens"
As a listener to this book you wonder why it has received all the hype it has. It is a basic story of a boy who is (more or less) accidentally transferred from his parents' home to another home, where he is raised. It all very sad and the protagonist does not get anywhere in life, as could be expected of someone without any real talents and a rather backward upbringing. Nothing with this book is exciting. I found it rather depressing. And nothing really happens. I have often wondered how a book about a real noboby would be to read. Now I know, and don't want to repeat the experience.
"So boring...."
Connie Willis' book was written in early 1990's and that can be clearly noticed. It takes place in what is still our future and it's full of people who try to connect with other people over failing telephone land lines (as if cell phones were not invented in 1992 and the author could not foresee future ways of communication and mankind had to resport to old bakelite phones). Now, this is supposed to be science fiction. A basic ingredient in sf is what is termed as "sense of wonder", meaning that you as the reader should feel removed from this world by the ideas presented in the sf story. Today time travel is a gadet frequently used in sf, so Connie Willis has not invented something new. Even though she presents the idea with a new twist (called "slippage" - the time elasticity caused by time travel itself), it does not reach the sense of wonder threshold. But that is not the worst - this book should have been edited down to less than one third of what it is today. There are so many side plots and alleyways leading nowhere that you wonder if the editor of this book was awake at all. Each conversation and event is dragged out by the author to the point that you as a listener just want to scream: "Get to the point". I just could not complete listening to this book, I gave up after the second part (of three). It was simply just so bo boring and not rewarding to continue. The narrator does a good enough job, but that does not help if the basic structure is so out of joint.
"A great story well performed"
This is a horrifying story from North Korea. It is still fiction, but it could certainly have happened in that strange country, which must be slowly falling apart. This book picqued my interest in NK and I have read up on the country since and almost all stories told by those who have fled the country back up the general picture and the key elements in this fictional story.
It was virtually impossible to put my iPhone down, and I think I completed this story in less than 3 days (I normally listen only for an hour or so per day), since I just had to listen to it at every free moment I had. The suspense is great. And it is well narrated.

Why, L's obsession with her toy stethoscope, of course.
She loves that thing so much that she wears it almost every time she leaves the house. She wears it to school every day. Today, we didn't even technically leave the house, in the sense that we never left our property. She needed it, though, to play in the snow.
Just ask her. She needs it.
And that's the magic about context: you likely thought I was about to tell you some birth-related story, but if I tell you that I'm still in my own home, back in cozy flannel pants, typing while balancing my laptop across my very pregnant belly, you now hold enough context to understand we're not yet up to any birth storytelling.
Let's look at the girls playing in the snow in our front yard this morning:
Cute, but no context.
Try this one:
Note our mailbox in the right quarter of the frame and you get a sense of just how much snow sits under the girls' bundled-up tushies.
But this is even more helpful in providing scale:
In this frame you can see some bare driveway blacktop in the foreground, and now you understand that they're sitting about 5 feet up in the air.
How do we measure the storm?
Do I tell you that we received about 50" of snow in the past week?
Or do I tell you that we have about 40" in our front yard now (due to some compression)?
Or do I tell you all that really matters: that we're safe and warm, that the baby didn't make any dangerous arrival plans, and that the sun is shining once again?
And that because the government has been shut down for a week, I just gained a free week of vacation time for my maternity leave?
I've realized that I've failed to provide you with some important narrative context.
On Tuesday, in the brief window between The End of Blizzard #1 and The Beginning of Blizzard #2, two important things happened. First, I had a checkup with my OB. Second, we moved back home. We've been back in our own house for two days, watching the snow accumulate in our own yard, enjoying the benefit of our newer neighborhood's buried power lines and a consistent stream of heat flowing through our home. And we did so based on that visit to my doctor.
So the facts, as they are: yes, I'm now six days past my due date. But l'enfant terrible and I were both thoroughly vetted for fitness on Tuesday. He was deemed nowhere near ready to come out, based on his location inside me. We can ask why that is, but the doctor simply said: "He was lower last week than he is now. He's climbing in the wrong direction." And when I questioned that, both the doctor and the sonographer independently gave the same answer: "Maybe this one will be your stubborn child." If you've been reading here for any length of time, you know that that is the most troubling part of this situation. His blood flow and amniotic fluid levels were checked. His size was checked. His heart was monitored for an hour. He's okay to keep cooking for now. And me? My blood pressure was 116/60. I'm 41 weeks pregnant and I'm probably in better physical condition right now than you. My girls, at just about 40 and just about 30 pounds, respectively, (pre-bundling!) who had me throwing them up on snow piles this morning certainly have no problem believing I can still do anything. Neither should you.
In fact, I was scheduled for a c-section today as a delivery method of last resort but on Tuesday the most pro-surgical doctor in my practice said he believed I should be removed from the schedule. We're late, but we're very healthy. We get more time to do things our way.
And I have another checkup with another sonogram and another fetal stress test tomorrow morning. And that's the full context.
The lovely husband and I both come from families just filled with nervous personalities and as such we have no patience for that. We are both extremely level-headed. We're great in emergencies, not that we've had one. We're calm. We get really annoyed by frippery. I joked with a friend a few weeks ago that I might write a post entitled "Don't call us; we'll call you" based on the notion that as the end approaches, we're being checked up on a little too much, with too many nothing questions and nonsense questions and fluffy questions, all designed just to see if we'll respond at all. Are we here? Are we at the hospital yet? Is anything happening? I joked I'd initiate a telephone moratorium. We haven't, quite, but I'm starting to ignore emails whose motives are suspect. We just might begin ignoring the telephone altogether. We're all here. We're all fine. We appreciate concern. However, external nervousness only lets a tension enter our home. We certainly don't need that; it doesn't help anything. And so the best solution is simply to bar it from entering at all.
So many people have been nothing but encouraging and supportive. Please don't misunderstand me; I truly appreciate that. I know our situation has sounded a bit precarious. I just ask that you follow the rule I laid out before my mother (who can't even assure me she's able to abide by it, and is therefore in danger of becoming incommunicado).
I'm not nervous about me. I'm comfy and happy. I trust my body and my intuition and my medical care and I am confident that I don't have anything to feel nervous about. Even in the worst of the storms, the Maryland National Guard was sending advance plows in front of ambulances for those who needed the service; and I knew that I'd always be okay. (And if you allow, as I believe, that the birth story is prophecy, well, maybe this kid really is going to need a bit of a stunt to set himself apart from the two very dynamic personalities we already have in the girls.)
So, then, The Rule:
Concern, compassion, curiousity are all welcome here. Encouragement especially welcome. And I do feel extremely appreciative to all of you near and far who are cheering me along. But I'm not nervous. And you, therefore, are not allowed to be nervous. You are not allowed to be any more nervous than I am. And if you can't abide by that, I better not hear about it. Because I, remember, am awesome. And I'm a VBAC rock star. And I have a proven pelvis.
And he will come when he is ready, on his schedule but not on Mother Nature's and not on mine and certainly not on yours. And he will be healthy and he will be beautiful and he will be wonderful and he will be a blessing on all of us.

Chrome District Backpack $0.00

Chrome District Backpack

Will withstand anything
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
First of all, this is the most rugged bag I own which is exactly what I was looking for. They were not kidding when they described it as 'theft-proof' either; anyone trying to sneak something out would first need to get by the very loud velcro strap. It's waterproof, sturdy, and will protect your valuables. My only complaints are the volume it can hold (smaller than your average North Face backpack) and the lack of multiple accessible points with only one opening at the top (takes a while to get to your stuff especially if what you're looking for has sunk to the bottom). Safe and extremely hardy for long trips in unknown urban territory. It looks super cool too.
Clint Arnett
Solid backpack.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I really liked this backpack at first. It was sleek and stylish and pretty comfortable to wear. After using it for while, my tune changed a little bit. The velcro closure is really loud to undo and the front pocket, when in use, takes away space from the main pocket. The bag is made out of very high quality materials, but I found that this just wasn't for me.
Jeff Stewart
It's Served Me Well
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought this bag right before Interbike 2013, and I've been using it ever since. The shape is low-profile and unassuming, which is good, and the strap design is pretty comfortable under load. Honestly, it has a few more bells and whistles than a really needed, but after using the same Citizen Metropolis bag since 2001, it was time to change it up.
The roll top feature is pretty good to have in a pinch when you need some added volume, which brings me to a couple of drawbacks. This bag doesn't expand very much considering it's maximum height, which can make packing for an international trip a little difficult. When fully-loaded, the inside can be a bit like a pit of despair. But for everyday trips, it's no big deal. My other complaint is that the internal Velcro closure strap for the laptop compartment is a little too long. A weird complaint, sure, but when it hangs, it's chewed up a few expensive jerseys in my bag.
Overall, this isn't the be-all-to-end-all bag, but it's perfect for the slightly-demanding commuter.
Love the bag, but needs getting used to
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I believe your stuff will be safe in the bag, but I agree with other reviewers about ease of use. The bag is really comfortable on my back when riding, even with a heavy load like a laptop and books. The design is super cool, and people always comment positively. However, it is difficult to get things in and out. It is not ideal for bringing bulky but light stuff, especially those that will stick to Velcro. They put some sticky Velcro on there, and I appreciate it despite the inconvenience.
One thing I would like to see changed is the trimming on the bottom edge of the bag. I feel like that is where a lot of weight is borne and would feel better not to see sewing here, maybe move the trimming up higher. That same trimming also rubs against my back which I think adds unnecessary wear, and potentially tear ?
Loud velcro/hard to get to compartment
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This really is a nice backpack but the super strong velcro in addition to how deep the bag really is once the roll top is extended out make it very difficult to get items quickly and quietly. In a setting where you don't want to be loud, this is far from ideal and really is a deal breaker for me at least.
If you plan on using the outer compartments for anything, the shape can also become a bit deformed if you put anything too big so keep that in mind as well.
I'd like to think of this as a learning experience in that the rolltop design while very nice in appearance, after actually using it, it's just not or me.
Raul Martinez
Is the noise the whole reason you gave it 2 stars? How durable and comfortable is the bag?
No, while the velcro noise was an issue, I probably should have stressed that the backpack wasn't practical for my everyday use. The strong velcro in addition to this being a rolltop was kind of overkill. Loosening the velcro and unrolling it takes up a bit more time then I'd like in addition to the compartment being very deep and dark which makes getting items in the bag a chore. You might be able to cover up some of the velcro areas if you buy some velcro material. I'd say the material is pretty high quality and durable from what i've seen of it, though I no longer have the backpack. Can't comment on comfort as I barely used it when I had it. The straps on this were pretty nice though.
BTW. I now have the Chrome Mini Metro Messenger bag and am extremely happy with it. I would recommend it or the Chrome Citizen Messenger bag (for more space). Costs more but I doubt you'd be disappointed once you get it.
Von Jefe
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
The quality of the build of this bag is great. It is a well constructed piece of gear.
Is it for me? I don't know. The bag is smaller than I expected. It holds daily supplies, but I'm wishing it had a bit more to give. It needs an easy to access external pocket to make it work. The main compartment is secured by really heavy duty velcro which gets old if you need to open and close the bag frequently. On the other hand, that velcro keeps your gear safe and secure.
The jury is still out for me.
Andrew T
^ I agree with the comment about the Velcro. It is secure, but doesn't make for stealthy opening/closing.

Great commuter bag/ lightweight traveler
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
As an avid cyclist and frequent traveler, I have tried a variety of bags. Through this experimentation, I've found that Chrome offers some of the most durable bags with an unbeatable pairing of style and functionality. My Chrome Ivan and Sotnik Duffle take care of the traveling, while the Chrome District has quickly become my favorite for overnights and commuting. Its small size makes it comfortable and easy to transport, but its large volume will accomodate a surprising amount of gear. The minimalist harness with D-rings and chest strap work well, but the padding is a bit more minimalist than the Ivan or Sultan (not a knock, but worth a mention. The District's main compartment is nice and large with a section for a laptop, and just enough pockets for your wallet, phone, earbuds, etc.

Babolat Pure Storm Tennis Racquets
Babolat Pure Storm tennis racquets are geared towards players seeking a control oriented frame with plenty of feel. The Babolat Pure Storm racquet is used by Carbon Xtrem and Woofer technologies. With Carbon Xtrem, the carbon fibers that compose the racquet head are braided on three different angles, while Woofer uses a special grommet, allowing all the strings to move and interact with the ball on contact. Carbon Xtrem provides up to a 40% increase in the resistance to torque in the Pure Storm racquet head. This results in two times less fiber breakage when compared to traditional racquets composed of carbon, providing more stability than a standard racquet. Carbon Xtreme allows the Babolat Pure Storm racquets to be light and stable at the same time. Woofer utilizes all the strings on impact, increasing the sweetspot. The new Pure Storm models utilize Babolat's GT technology to give players unmatched feel and control!

Wireless broadband provider's board recommends shareholders accept Dish's bid, which is $1 a share greater than a rival bid by majority owner Sprint Nextel.
Cheapskate exclusive! Preorder this brand-new LTE mobile hotspot and you'll get a generous helping of data to get you started. Plus: three bonus deals!
Sprint is offering consumers more bang for the buck with its new Family Share Pack. But will customers be able to decipher the new plan and its new promotions to really understand the value?
Dan Hesse, stepping down as chief of the US's third-largest wireless carrier after seven years, helped clear up Sprint's baggage. But the company still lacks a key essential: new subscribers.
Sprint's Hesse lists the highlights of his nearly seven-year tenure at the company.
Sprint's core wireless brand and prepaid service continued to lose customers, though not as rapidly, amid a long network upgrade.
Sprint officially acquires the remaining 50 percent of Clearwire a day after shareholders overwhelmingly vote to approve the deal.
Now that Dish Network is out of the picture, Clearwire shareholders have officially accepted Sprint's $5 a share offer to buy its remaining shares.
Dish says it's standing down, clearing a path for Sprint to acquire the small wireless company.
Sprint says it's on the comeback trail. And it's putting its money where its mouth is with a new 30-day money-back guarantee if consumers try its service.

The 2,200 bhp 42ft Ducati Edition US$700,000 Cigarette Boat will top 120 mph on water
Ducati is making a serious effort to move its motorcycle brand upwards and leverage the visibility its MotoGP and World Superbike success has given it. The recently announced marketing alliances with automotive brand AMG and apparel company Diesel have now been extended to the luxury go-fast Cigarette boat company. Some of the world's wealthiest and most influential people have owned cigarette boats including George Bush Snr, King Hussein of Jordan and King Juan Carlos of Spain. This week a Cigarette Racing 42X Ducati Edition was launched at the Miami Boat Show with staggered 1,100hp Mercury Racing engines, a special sound system, a top speed in excess of 120 mph (on water no less), and a price tag of US$700,000.

Technology reforms give agencies a needed lift
Tuesday - 9/18/2012, 3:25am EDT
In Part 2 of Federal News Radio's special report, The Obama Impact: Evaluating the Last Four Years, we examine five of President Barack Obama's most important technology initiatives, rating each as effective (green), ineffective (red) or needs more progress (yellow). View the details of each initiative through our interactive dashboard.
Information Sharing
Health IT IT Reform |
Open / Transparent Government | Cybersecurity |
P resident Barack Obama came into the office using social media, carrying a Blackberry and talking about cybersecurity almost from day one of his administration.
The President named a "Federal Chief Information Officer" where other administrations refrained. The White House promoted the use of data and openness, and pushed agencies to name chief technology officers to promote innovation to improve citizen services.
Nearly every initiative depended on technology, and the Office of Management and Budget didn't mince words about what it saw as the poor state of federal IT.
In part 2 of Federal News Radio's special report, The Obama Impact: Evaluating the Last Four Years, we wondered if the administration has set itself up for universal success of its IT ideas.
Federal News Radio's Jason Miller's report on the cyber failings of the administrations and Congress
White House cyber checklist
President Obama made cybersecurity a national priority with a 60-day policy review and a White House speech in May 2009. He called the cyber threat "one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation." The President said the government and country were not as prepared as they needed to be and committed to treating networks and computers "as a strategic national asset. Protecting this infrastructure will be a national security priority. We will ensure that these networks are secure, trustworthy and resilient. We will deter, prevent, detect, and defend against attacks and recover quickly from any disruptions or damage."
The President named Howard Schmidt to be the first cyber coordinator and a senior adviser. Schmidt also served on the National Economic Council.
But the administration's lofty talk and goals failed to materialize.
The White House and Senate failed to pass comprehensive cyber legislation, and the Obama administration is considering issuing a less potent executive order to try to improve the security of the critical infrastructure networks.
But it's more than just the failure to get a bill passed that led us to deem cybersecurity as ineffective.
Many of the administration's efforts to better secure federal networks or improve information sharing with the private sector fell short of expectations and actual results.
The White House and the Homeland Security Department took two years to require continuous monitoring. The Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) has yet to be updated in law, and only parts of which are changed in regulation.
David Smith, the director of the cyber center for the Potomac Institute, said the administration issued a lot of 12-point plans and strategies, but there's still not a lot of action. He said agencies still are fighting among themselves and the White House cyber coordinator needs real clout.
The departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs have achieved a number of accomplishments since the secretaries of both departments officially agreed on the goal of creating a common electronic health record (EHR) system.

Giro Trans Shoes

Eddie Q
Comfy and very solid.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've owned these for approx. 2 years and I ride 3-4 times a week. I have really put these shoes through hell; snow storms, rain storms, riding in 105 degree heat and they are every bit as comfortable as when I first bought them.
Side note - if you have wide feet you might find these a bit snug.
Best Shoe
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I have been through all the brands Sidi,S-Works,Northwave,but Giro still has me coming back,they fit my foot great,feel great. No break in period. I have a hard time finding shoes to work with my feet,one is a quarter size smaller,and the Giro fit like a champ. This is my third pair,not that I've wore them out but more color choices.
Comfortable Shoes? But the Heel...
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
I ride a lot, sometimes over 300 miles in a single week. These shoes have been really comfortable (my feet are a bit narrow, as are the shoes). The fit is perfect. The problem is the heel. After about 3 months with the shoes, I shaved the heel off when I missed clipping into the pedal. I took them back and Giro sent me new ones! Awesome! I then shaved the heel off again. The shoe design problem (versus my clipping in problem that happens on really long rides) is the abrupt rise of the heel pad on the sole. If you catch it just right, the heel pads shave off and are not replaceable. You need new shoes. Giro truly was awesome to replace them the first time around, and may even again.. but I am opting to try a different shoe with a more gradual heel pad rise (and some shoes have replaceable heel pads, which is even better).

Definitely a good price compared to other places I've been. Very light shoe, and comfortable for the short/long distance road biking I do. I would recommend this shoe to any person that's looking for a good shoe for road biking.
How do these fit compared to your brannok...
How do these fit compared to your brannok size? True, or should I size up?
What kind of fit do they have in the toe box with that fitting?

The combination of sour cream, horseradish, herbs, garlic and breadcrumbs make this a fabulous roast. Simple enough to make as a weeknight dinner served with vegetables or elegant enough to serve for a special occasion. I found this recipe in an old Everyday Food magazine and modified it to make it lighter. I will definitely be making this again when I am craving beef. I had this with a salad and fresh vegetables to keep the points down.

Duffy looks to deal Royals win in Arizona opener
D-backs' Miley to match up with fellow lefty in Interleague contest
The D-backs and Royals meet Tuesday for the start of a three-game series with Kansas City on a roll of late.
The Royals claimed their ninth win in 12 games with a 4-2 win over the Athletics on Sunday. The victory ensured a series win for KC over Oakland, who hold MLB's best record. The Royals now trail first-place Detroit by five games in the American League Central and the Blue Jays by 1 1/2 games for the second AL Wild Card spot.
Kansas City, in search of its fifth straight series win, sends the perfect guy to the mound in the series opener in Danny Duffy.
The left-hander enters Tuesday allowing two runs or fewer in eight of his last nine starts. The latest sub-three-run performance came last Wednesday in a 3-2 win over the Twins. Duffy allowed one run in 5 2/3 innings, but walked a career-high six batters. After the game, he pointed out the positive aspect of the start.
"If this would have happened two years ago, I probably would have gone four [innings]," Duffy said.
Duffy's 103 innings do not qualify him for the ERA crown, but if he was eligible, his 2.42 ERA would place him tied for sixth in MLB and third in the AL.
This will be the first meeting between Duffy and Arizona, which counters with its own streaking left-hander, Wade Miley.
Miley had a 2.45 ERA in July. Additionally, he boasted a 4-1 record in the month, with 36 strikeouts in 40 1/3 innings. His latest victory came last Wednesday over the Reds, by a score of 5-4. None of the runs came under Miley's watch as he shut out Cincinnati during his 6 2/3 innings. He did, however, allow seven hits and four walks.
"It was a battle," Miley said after the start. "I was able to get through it. It got better as the game went on, but early on, I was just kind of fighting, just didn't feel very good. They were hitting it at some people, so we were able to get some outs and get out of there."
Royals: Offense knocks around Kazmir
The task for Kansas City on Sunday was a steep one: the offense had to find a way to get to Scott Kazmir and his 2.37 ERA entering the start, good for third in the AL at the time.
The Royals accomplished that and more as they rattled Kazmir for a season-high 10 hits and four runs in six innings. It marked only the third time in 22 starts Kazmir allowed more than three runs this season.
The top of the order did significant damage, as hitters one through four finished 8-for-18, with Billy Butler (3-for-4) and Omar Infante (3-for-5, two-run double) leading the charge.
Infante (entered 0-for-10) and Butler (1-for-17) each snapped slumps with their multi-hit games, while Salvador Perez added a fifth-inning RBI single from the three-hole after going 2-for-his-last-25.
D-backs: Trumbo plays first
On Sunday, Mark Trumbo made his first start at first base this season for an injured Paul Goldschmidt, who fractured his hand left hand Friday night and will likely miss the rest of the year.
"His actions seem pretty smooth over there," Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. "But it's going to be hard to replace Goldy, what he brought us over there with his consistency."
Gibson has not committed yet to Trumbo as his starting first baseman for the rest of the season, as Jordan Pacheco earned a start at first base on Saturday. Gibson also did not eliminate the possibility that the team could acquire a first baseman. Although, with the non-waiver Trade Deadline passed, the options are slim.
Worth noting
• The D-back are 5-7 in Interleague play this season, while the Royals hold an 8-4 record against National League teams.
