NFC Easy Connect
Just touch your smartphone to the N mark on an NFC-compatible Sony device to register (pair) the devices and connect them through Bluetooth (one-touch connection).
For details on smartphones on which the NFC Easy Connect app needs to be installed, check "Compatible smartphones" below.
You do not need to install the NFC Easy Connect app if you are using an NFC-compatible smartphone with Android OS 4.1 or later installed.
- Compatible smartphones
NFC-compatible smartphones with Android 2.3.3 or later (prior to Android 4.1) installed
Some smartphones may already have an app installed with similar functions. In this case, the NFC Easy Connect app is not needed.
See the manual of your smartphone for details.
See the following website for details on NFC-compatible Sony devices.
- Making a one-touch connection with your smartphone
1. Unlock the screen.
2. Touch the NFC detection area of your smartphone that has this app installed to the N mark on an NFC-compatible Sony device.
3. The smartphone vibrates when a connection to the NFC-compatible Sony device is established.
(You do not need to activate the NFC Easy Connect app.)
- Main functions
1. Simple device registration (pairing) and connection by one touch. (NFC Bluetooth Handover)
Touching your smartphone to an NFC-compatible Sony device turns the power of the device on and establishes a Bluetooth connection at the same time.
Even when connecting to an NFC-compatible Sony device for the first time, both device registration and Bluetooth connection can be completed with this one-touch operation.
2. Simple disconnection by one touch.
To disconnect the connection, simply touch the smartphone to the NFC-compatible Sony device.
3. Simple switching of connected devices by one touch.
If you have multiple NFC-compatible Sony devices, just touch the smartphone to a different device to disconnect from the current device and connect to the new one.
For example, if your smartphone is connected with NFC-compatible headphones through a Bluetooth connection and you want to connect to an NFC-compatible speaker instead, just touch the smartphone to the speaker to establish a Bluetooth connection to the speaker.
4. Operation at your fingertips
You can turn the Bluetooth function on and off, and connect or disconnect easily using the app screen.
- Check the following if a connection cannot be established.
1.Make sure the NFC Easy Connect app is activated or the NFC function of your smartphone is turned on.
2.Make sure the screen of your smartphone is unlocked.
3.Depending on the smartphone you are using, it may not be possible to make a one-touch connection while the smartphone is being charged. Finish charging first, then perform the one-touch operation.
4.If the smartphone is in a case, the listening device may not react to one-touch; remove the smartphone from the case first.

NFC Sniffer
For an ad-free version of this app, and to support further development, upgrade to the NFC Sniffer Pro.
This app allows you to explore the contents of the RFID/NFC enabled smart card transponders. This is very useful for anyone programming NFC applications, or for anyone who wants to see what transponders they are carrying around in their purse or wallet.
To scan a smart-card or NFC tag, start the app, then hold the card/tag within a few millimeters of the back of your device (you may have to swipe around a bit to find where the NCF reader is in your device).
The app displays:
* The transponder ID
* RF technologies used
* Type of transponder
* ATQA code
* Target tech classes
* Number of times this transponder has been scanned
Not all android devices support NFC. If your phone or tablet does not support NFC, a message appears on the screen to notify you, and the app closes.
By default, NFC is disabled in most handsets. To use this app, and to use NFC on your device, you must enable NFC in your device settings. If NFC is not enabled on your device, this app displays a message and exits.
This app is no better than the NFC scanner and the RFID tag you are using. Not all phone chips can read all tags. If the phone cannot read the tag, there is nothing the software can do. This app shows whatever NFC contacts the hardware reports to the OS.

Bored of putting your phone on silent every time you get into the office? Tired of turning off Bluetooth to conserve battery every time juice gets low?
This app interacts with your surroundings to configure settings on your phone automatically. Combine triggers and actions to create tasks, then activate the tasks that you create with conditions that you set!
Here are examples of what you can do:
In your car: Use Bluetooth as a trigger to open GPS and launch your favorite music app
On your nightstand: Program an NFC tag to set your ringer to vibrate, dim your display and set an alarm
In your home: Configure mobile data to turn off when your phone detects your own Wifi
The current triggers are as follows:
And as part of our Pro-Upgrade we also have these additional triggers:
-Battery Level
-Time triggers
And here are a few examples of the actions that you can perform:
- Change WiFi, Bluetooth, mobile hotspot, airplane mode (root users in Jelly Bean and up), auto-sync, GPS (root users), and mobile data settings.
- Change your volumes or notification tones.
- Change your display brightness, timeout, auto-rotation, or notification light settings
- Check in on social media like Foursquare or Google Places

This app allows you to easily program your device to do the actions you do regularly.
So go ahead and create your own combinations to automate your life. The only limit is what you can come up with!
The Wall Street Journal calls it "living in the future."
Additional actions can be found when experimental features are enabled in advanced settings. Auto lock screen and airplane mode are restricted by Android but we've created some work around solutions for these actions. (Note: They aren't 100% reliable which is why they're classed as "experimental features").
Some demos can be viewed on the application website
Note: When using NFC Tags you can create a Switch task that will toggle between two tasks with each tap.
We're always working on adding new actions to Tasks. Please get in touch if there's something you'd like to do that's not currently offered.

Recycled Countertops
Many companies now offer kitchen countertop surfaces made from recycled paper or bamboo. Gilasi, based in Chicago, actually takes materials that cannot be recycled traditionally, and incorporates them into countertops. The company crushes glass—saving hours worth of energy that went into creating it—and adds it to a cement mixture. The countertop was featured in the Museum of Science and Industry's Smart Home exhibit in 2010.

Hewitt has a daughter and had a second child in early 2010.[10][11] His elder daughter Emily performed backing vocals on Love Song, the final track on Love Amongst Ruin's 2010 debut album.
Playing career[edit]
Early years (1988-1996)[edit]
Hewitt began his career in the northwest of England, playing with his brother Nick in Misadventure, before leaving in 1988 to join The Mystic Deckchairs. Hewitt joined fellow local musician Tim Burgess in Electric Crayons, prior to Burgess joining The Charlatans in 1989. Hewitt joined Breed at the age of 17, linking up with the band for a German tour after spying an advert placed by the band in Affleck's Palace.[12] Following the completion of the tour, Hewitt joined The Boo Radleys on a temporary basis[12] and played on the band's 1990 debut album, Ichabod and I. Hewitt rejoined Breed in 1991, releasing the albums Grin in 1991[13] and Violet Sentimental in 1993.[14] Breed found commercial success elusive (despite a support slot on Nick Cave's Let Love In tour) and following a disastrous gig at the Bull & Gate in London in 1996, the band split.[12] While in Breed, Hewitt also played for house act K-Klass.[12] The need for money during these years saw Hewitt take on session work in London, recording jingles[12] and appearing on releases by Baby June[15] and Sharkboy.[16] Breed reformed for a one-off gig at Lock 17 in Camden Lock Market, London on 6 December 2004.[17]
Placebo (1996-2007)[edit]
Hewitt met Brian Molko in 1991 through his then-girlfriend[18] and was invited to drum on demos for Molko's band Placebo, though Hewitt wasn't able to join the band due to commitments to Breed.[19] The band earned a record deal with drummer Robert Schultzberg, who appeared on the trio's 1996 debut album. In the autumn of 1996, tensions between Schultzberg, Molko and bassist Stefan Olsdal saw Schultzberg leave the band.[18] Breed's breakup around the same time saw Hewitt accept the invitation to join Placebo permanently.[20] Hewitt appeared in the video for the band's 1997 "Nancy Boy" single with his face blurred out, because he was still under contract to a different record label. After completing touring for Placebo, the band wrote and recorded their second album, Without You I'm Nothing, released in October 1998. The first official Placebo release to feature Hewitt was the "Pure Morning" single, released in August 1998. Hewitt drummed and contributed to the songwriting[6] on subsequent albums Black Market Music (2000), Sleeping with Ghosts (2003) and Meds (2006) with the band. On 1 October 2007, it was announced via the official Placebo website that Hewitt had parted company with Placebo due to personal and musical differences.[21] Hewitt's final recorded performances for the band were the b-sides "Lazarus" and "UNEEDMEMORETHANINEEDU", released on the "Meds" single in October 2006. Hewitt was replaced in 2008 by Steve Forrest, the band's first right-handed drummer.[22]
Love Amongst Ruin (2007-present)[edit]
Feeling "betrayed" after leaving Placebo[5] and faced with a decision "to go to the pub or the studio",[23] Hewitt returned to his home studio and began creating "a new band, a new album and a new sound".[24] He contributed drums, guitars, piano and lead vocals to the album and enlisted Jon Thorne and Donald Ross Skinner as collaborators.[6] Steve's brother Nick Hewitt recorded additional guitars and Hewitt felt that he had captured his best ever drum sound on the album.[24][25] The band was named Love Amongst Ruin in late 2009, with Hewitt assuming frontman duties.[26] Hewitt made his first public appearance since leaving Placebo on January 14, 2010 at Eurosonic Festival in the Netherlands at the band's debut gig.[27] Love Amongst Ruin's self-titled debut album was released on 13 September 2010.[28] The band embarked on UK and European tours during 2010 and 2011, making appearances at Sonisphere Festival,[29] Reeperbahn Festival,[30] Fête de la Musique[31] and supporting Feeder on their February 2011 UK tour.[32] Hewitt wrote and recorded the band's second album with Donald Ross Skinner in 2011 and 2012,[5] before the album was put onto the back burner until 2015, when the title Lose Your Way was announced, with a release date of 1 June 2015.[33]
Six by Seven (2012-2013)[edit]
Hewitt befriended members of the band Six by Seven when they toured as opening act for Placebo in 1998. In 2012, Hewitt and Six by Seven frontman Chris Olley were reintroduced by mutual friend Steve Hove (then-guitarist for Love Amongst Ruin)[34] and began rehearsing new material for Olley's project (The Death of) Six By Seven.[34] The material they wrote eventually saw the project morph into a reformed Six by Seven.[34] Hewitt was announced as the band's new drummer in August 2012.[35] The band entered Moles Studio in Bath in January 2013[36] to record the band's seventh album. Olley stated that Hewitt "won't do more than what sounds good. So if the first two songs on the album have no snare, he's gonna put all his efforts into playing the bass drum and ride. He does what all great drummers do, adds to and supports the songs".[37] The album, titled Love and Peace and Sympathy, was released on 16 April 2013 and the band embarked on a UK tour in the summer of 2013,[38] which included a slot at Glastonbury Festival.[39] Hewitt's year was ended by a broken arm suffered in October 2013, which caused him to miss an in-store signing at Fopp in Nottingham[40] and a performance at Soundedit Festival.[41] Chris Olley reported on his blog in May 2014 that he had recorded a new Six by Seven album by himself, hinting that Hewitt had left the band.[42]
Other projects[edit]
In 2010, Hewitt joined songwriter/producer Brandun Reed as a collaborator on Reed's Polaroid Kiss project,[43] playing on The New Coliseum expanded album (2013) and the Weakness of the Beautiful Souls album (2014). As of May 2015, Hewitt was recording and producing pop singer DéDé and recording drums for Paul Draper's solo album.[44]
Production career[edit]
Hewitt served as one of the producers for Love Amongst Ruin's debut album and brought in Paul Corkett to co-produce the album. Corkett had previously worked with Hewitt as the producer on Placebo's Black Market Music. While touring Love Amongst Ruin's debut album, Hewitt struck up friendships with French and Italian bands Lys and Spiral 69. Serving as an executive producer, Hewitt and Corkett oversaw the production of six songs on Lys' debut album Go Your Own Way (2013)[45][46] and the entirety of Spiral 69's third album Ghosts in My Eyes (2013).[47][48] Hewitt worked on Lys' second album at his home studio in early 2014, along with Paul Corkett and Love Amongst Ruin member Donald Ross Skinner.[49][50] A second session took place in April 2014.[51] The album is expected to see release in early 2015.[50]

Alcohol Issue in Harrodsburg
By Todd Kleffman, The Advocate-Messenger
Without alcohol sales, business at the 19th Hole restaurant at Mercer County's Bright Leaf Golf Resort is drying up and it will soon close. But, if the restaurant is annexed into Harrodsburg, which allows sales, it likely would stay afloat and prosper. That's what Helen King, the self-described matriarch of Bright Leaf Resort, told City Commissioners on Monday night. "We've had the restaurant many years. We've tried to stay dry, but everything has become wet around us," King said. "Our restaurant is failing because we can't compete."

My take on the Pusher issue
View Single Post
Join Date: Jun 2007
Posts: 760
Funny how people here hate playing pushers but most pushers do not like to play me lol. I am a former pusher before I developed into all court/junker player. I can hit hard and love bashing on the baseline but will bring out my slice and dice game just to throw of my opponents.
When I come across a pusher, I will make sure to give this pusher a workout of his life. I am quick and in great shape and love grinding people down. Most people will try to run a pusher side to side but sometimes that is his/her strength. I will try to run them side to side and also turn on my slicing game and pull a pusher to the net and lob...most pushers tend to lack of overhead skill. I don't go for a big shots from the beginning because I want a pusher to know that I'm here to battle and ready for a workout (mind game).
I will also chip-charge and make sure to get ready for a lob. You need to throw in many verities of shots just to make sure not to let them get into any pattern or rhythm. Also it is a great way to find out his/her weakness. We all know they are great at retrieving and thrive on your mistakes.
Wait...Am I still a "pusher"? LOL

Pre-College Portfolio. Need help!
Hey, guys RISD Pre-College applications are open, and I find I'm having a difficult time choosing only five pieces for my portfolio in order to apply for a scholarship. One of them is required to be a black and white drawing in a dry, fixable medium. The rest is free game, but they want applicants to demonstrate a wide proficiency in a variety of mediums. This is my first time ever assembling a portfolio, and I was wondering if any of you with more experience could help a girl out? My first choice major is Illustration.
I've written my essay and my weighted GPA is a 4.6 (out of 4.8), so I'm not really worried about not being academically eligible. I just need help choosing which pieces to include or if you feel that there aren't five portfolio-worthy pieces and that I should do more.
EDIT: I sent my application out today. Cross your fingers for me!

Could you post their specific guidelines? That would help tons with which ones you should enter. Just copy paste in the instructions.
January 3rd, 2012 #4
Capt Surge: Thanks so much! I don't know if I'll be able to put all of my still-life pieces in because I'd like to include one or two pieces from imagination. Are there any in particular you like?
SweetPea: I summarized in my first post, but if you rather I copy what was said in their guidelines:
"A non-returnable computer disc (CD or DVD) or USB flash drive containing five (5) artwork samples that best represent the student's artistic abilities; include as much of a variety of media as possible, however, at least one (1) sample must be a black-and-white drawing done with graphite pencil or any dry (fixable) medium."

Updating the first post with this new figure study:
I definitely like it more than the other one.
January 9th, 2012 #6
The new figure study is great! The original one had kind of a wide, awkward head; this is much nicer. (I think the hair could use another pass, though, it feels a little flat compared to the rest of it.)
In the original post, I think your strongest pieces are your digital ones, especially the digital still life. It's much stronger than your acrylic still lifes, but of the acrylic ones, I like the bottom one best.

i'd suggest dropping the second and fourth pics (tiger and white phoenix). the tiger would really lower the overall quality of the portfolio (and the anatomy on the kid is way off in comparison to your more recent work), and the cover piece doesn't hold well next to the rest of your work either. other than that, you've got yourself a pretty good batch!

Revidescent: Thank you! Yeah, I noticed the same thing which is why I drew the second figure study. I'll take a look at the hair
I know my strength lies with my digital pieces, but I have to include a variety of mediums (and only five pieces tops), so I think only two will be digital. The problem is deciding which.
Thanks again for your input!
hueonpao: Thanks for the suggestions! I was planning to revise the tiger piece if I included it, but maybe it's not worth the trouble after all.

Decorated U.S. Soldier Sues British Contractor for Reckless Shooting
TROY, Mich., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ — A decorated U.S. Soldier, from the State of Texas, filed suit today in U.S. Federal Court in Washington DC against a British Contractor for injuries sustained during a reckless shooting incident in Iraq.
Former U.S. Army Sergeant Kadim Alkanani is suing London-based Aegis Defence Services Limited, for an incident on June 3, 2005, in which Aegis contractor's opened fire without warning on Sergeant Alkanani's unit moments after they had passed through a check point on their return to base, thereby injuring Sergeant Alkanani and ending his promising military career.
Sgt. Alkanani was stationed in Iraq at the time and was a decorated soldier and a recipient of many awards, including the National Defense Service Medal, The Global War on Terrorism Service Medal, the Iraq Campaign Medal, the Army Services Ribbon, the Overseas Service Ribbon, and the Armed Forces Reserve Medal.
Aegis, which has made hundreds of millions of dollars for providing services to the US in Iraq, has been in midst of controversy before, especially after one of their alleged employees filmed a video that depicts alleged Aegis gunmen firing senselessly at innocent civilians in passing automobiles, and which has since gained infamy as the "Trophy Video."
Sgt. Alkanani was stationed in Iraq on active duty as a Specialist for the U.S. Army's 10th Group Special Forces. The severe injuries he received at the hands of the Aegis gunmen ended his military career and he was honorably discharged in 2006. This is one of the first suits by former U.S. military personnel against contractors in Iraq.
Sgt. Alkanani is being represented by two very experienced attorneys, Shereef Akeel and Charles Swift. Mr. Akeel is a civil rights attorney and currently represents hundreds of torture victims at the notorious Abu Ghraib prison. Mr. Swift is a former Navy Judge Advocate General, and has extensive experience with various high profile U.S. military cases.
Shereef Akeel commented on this case by stating that: "From the prisons of Abu Ghraib to the streets of Baghdad, we will continue to bring lawsuits to hold contractors accountable for their misconduct in Iraq. This Aegis lawsuit on behalf of a decorated US soldier epitomizes the growing concern of using private contractors when they compromise our national security and put our soldiers in harms way."
Charles Swift stated: "This case is not just about the senseless shooting of Specialist Alkanani, it is about the rule of law. If the Aegis Security Guards had been soldiers they would have faced a Court-Martial and Aegis's CEO would have been relieved of his command for what happened to Specialist Alkanani. It is past time that contractors in Iraq like Aegis lived by the same rules as everyone else."
For further information on this lawsuit, please contact Attorneys Shereef Akeel at (248) 269-9595 or Charles Swift at (206) 441-3377.

BOISE -- Federal, county and local law enforcement officers are hard at work removing a major marijuana operation on public land south of Stanley, Idaho. U.S. Attorney Wendy Olson says the grow includes more than 11,100 plants near Galena Summit in the Sawtooth National Forest in Blaine County.
However, Olson said what authorities didn't find was just who was responsible for growing the marijuana, and no arrests have been made.
Olson said around 60 law enforcement officers began removing the illegal plants on Thursday, along with related growing materials and camping gear.
Law enforcement officers from the Blaine, Gooding and Camas County Sheriff's Offices, Sun Valley and Ketchum police departments, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management and Drug Enforcement Administration are participating in the effort.
Idaho public lands are off limits to drug traffickers, Olson said. We are committed to finding these grows, and removing the plants, and therefore removing the profit for the drug traffickers and restoring the land to its natural beauty.
According to Blaine County Sheriff Gene Ramsay, authorities found the grow about two weeks ago after a bowhunter scouting the area with his son reported the pot. Ramsay says that's when law enforcement agents began searching for suspects and conducting surveillance in the area.
Sheriff Ramsay said another hiker stumbled upon the area on Wednesday, and while that hiker was walking away he heard gunshots being fired behind him.
He realized he was in the middle of a grow, Ramsay said, noting that the man backed-up and quickly retreated before shots were fired.
While not common in Idaho, federal agents say shootouts between pot growers and those unfortunate enough to stumble upon their grows often happen in other states.
Olson said authorities don't have any leads on who might have been cultivating the plants. However, she said the growing area wasn't a new one.
This was obviously not the first grow season based on the things they're finding, Olson said.
Olson went on to say the effort was part of a coordinated two-month effort called Operation Mountain Sweep that took place in 7 western states, including Idaho, to target large-scale illegal marijuana grows on public land.
In late July, law enforcement officers removed 42,290 marijuana plants from state-owned public land in Caribou County. Since 2005, approximately 130,605 marijuana plants have been eradicated from public lands in Idaho.

Ain't no vacation, working like a Jamaican, mixed with a Hatian
Several different occupations - no exaggeration
from T.I. – I Need Dollas Lyrics on Genius
This line is rooted in a popular stereotype suggesting that most Jamaicans and Haitians hold more than one job, especially those in America trying to earn enough money to support their families back home.
T.I. does in fact have more than one occupation. Having starred in movies like "ATL" and "Takers", he has joined Will Smith in the "rappers turned actors" club.

I posted this item, which originated with the folks at FAIR, a few days ago from Carmel, Indiana, and the formatting got all gunked up. (That's a technical term that you non-geeks shouldn't even pretend to understand.) So I'm trying it again. And I urge you, once again, to vote early and often. (It would be fun to win an election.)
Mormon FAIR-Cast Nominated for Podcast Award
The People's Choice Podcast Awards are an annual set of awards given to the best podcasts as voted on by listeners. This year, over 9 million votes were cast and over 5,000 shows were nominated over the 15 day voting period. Ten shows were chosen as nominees in each of 22 different categories. The Podcast Awards Ceremony will be held at the New Media Expo in Las Vegas on January 7th, 2013!
FAIR's podcast, known as the Mormon FAIR-Cast, which is located at http://www.fairblog.org, has been nominated for the second year in a row to receive a Podcast Award in the "Religion Inspiration" category. We consider this nomination a great honor.
How We Were Nominated
Nominations were open for 15 days in October. The 50 podcasts in each category that received the most votes were reviewed by a 44-member committee that took a variety of factors into account in order to narrow the finalists down to 10 in each category. The total number of votes a podcast received accounted for only 40% of the grading, with the quality of the website's design (15%), quality of sound (15%), quality of deliverance and show format (10%), and relevance of content (20%) also being considered.
What We Would Like You To Do
Final voting for the awards began today, November 1st, and will end on November 15 at 11:59pm HST. Each person (verified by IP address) may vote ONCE EACH DAY during the 15 days that voting is open. In other words, a single person can cast 15 votes if he or she votes once each day. Please support the Mormon FAIR-Cast by casting your vote at this address:
Remember, you can vote once each day for the 15 days voting is open, and voting only takes a moment.
To vote, go to www.podcastawards.com and find the Mormon FAIR-Cast entry. It is listed under the Religion Inspiration category, which isnear the bottom of the page on the right. It is the third category up from the bottom. Click on the Mormon FAIR-Cast entry. Then scroll down and enter your name and email address. Click on the button that describes you best (Listener, Podcaster, or Both.) For most of you that will be "Listener." Then click on the submit button on the right. Please spread the word by telling your friends. Even if we don't win the voting, we hope this will raise awareness of the great resources we have. If we do win, it is even better. You can post a link with instructions on Facebook, Twitter, or Google Plus. Remind your friends to vote each day, and thank you for your continued support of FAIR.

For Johnson Mai (H.M. @ 103) Named The Daily Breeze Wrestler of the Year and many other topics visit HSWrestling.net
Johnson Mai (H.M. @ 103) of North Torrance didn?t mind that he had a huge shadow, caused by the achievements of older brothers Kevin and Kenny, cast over him.
Knowing what they accomplished in previous years didn?t slow Johnson down. Didn?t faze him.
Armed with the knowledge that they were the area?s best wrestlers in each of the last two years, Johnson went out and bettered them.
Mai, who posted a 40-2 record and won the first CIF state championship for North Torrance, is the 2010-11 Daily Breeze Wrestler of the Year.
He is the South Bay?s first state wrestling champion since 1990.
?I spent the last two years watching (the state finals) and I felt that it might be scary (to compete in the finals),? Mai said. ?But when I got up there, it was just another wrestling match.?
Mai defeated Isaiah Locsin (103) of Live Oak, 6-4, in the 103-pound final at the massive Rabobank Arena in Bakersfield. Locsin had defeated Emilio Saavedra (H.M. @ 103) of Pitman in the semifinals. Saavedra is the reason Mai had two losses on the season.
But Mai is convinced that had they faced each other, he would not have finished the season with a different record.
?I was ready to face (Saavedra). I was prepared for him,? Mai said. ?I felt that after the tournament people were doubting me because he was undefeated (before his semifinal loss). When we had wrestled, it was close. I lost because of my mistakes and I don?t think I was going to make any mistakes.
?But it didn?t matter who I faced, I was going to win.?

So, we've entered a new phase of sleep that is totally confusing me.
From about a year to 18.5 months, DD was going to bed between 7:45-8pm, waking several times in the night needing to be comforted, then seemingly waking for the day around 6am (sometimes she could be convinced to snooze a bit longer if we brought her in bed with us).
As of last Friday or so, she is doing the following:
1) Testing me at bedtime. I am the only one who puts her to bed (that's another story) and she will now do this thing where as soon as we turn out lights she wants to go immediately into her crib (she used to let me rock her for a few minutes). She goes into the crib and will do one or some of a number of things: say, "Mama. Go." but then get upset if I say "Ok" and go to leave; say, "Up!" but then not let me pick her up; try to give me her blanket but not let me touch her; not lie down; etc. If I leave the room, she SCREAMS until I come back in. Even if I just sit in a chair in the room, she cries the whole time. The longest I've been able to stand leaving her crying is 30 minutes (which I tried just once two nights ago). Last night it was about 20 minutes before I went back in. I fully expect she would scream for 6 hours if I didn't go in and pick her up and comfort her. That is just her personality. And yet I feel like that is exactly what I should not be doing. The entire sleep routine (which, aside from this is EXACTLY the same every night) went on for an hour and a half last night until I finally gave in and held her for a few minutes (that's really all it takes) and she went willingly, awake, into the crib, laid down, and went to sleep. When these shenanigans happen, she's going to sleep around 8:30pm, sometimes closer to 8:45.
2) sleeping until 9am. She has always been an early riser (6am or earlier). I cant' fathom how she is now sleeping (again, it's been this past weekend) upwards of 9am.
Has anyone dealt with anything similar? Could this be a growth spurt combined with typical toddler testing? it ruins my whole night and I now dread putting her to bed. I contacted a sleep consultant from Isis, but in the meantime am wondering if any of you have advice that you have tried yourselves. I will say up front, I do not have the time and patience to read a sleep book (i tried making sense of Weissbluth and choosing a sleep training plan about 6 months ago, but after several days of reading through his book, I still couldn't figure out what I should be doing), and the other issue I'm having with this is that I don't eat dinner until after she goes to bed, so I'm starving by the time this all happens (not to mention exhausted and 7 months pregnant and generally have less patience than is normal for me).
I feel like I am flying by the seat of my pants, completely alone. DH wants to help, but also doesn't know what to do. If I had some sort of plan I felt could work, I'd feel a lot better even if it took a few days for it to kick in. I'm sure I sound totally helpless, stating I won't read a book and all, but I'm so tired I just need someone to tell me what to do.

Only three Boston Red Sox players have hit 400 or more home runs for the franchise.
David Ortiz is one of them.
Big Papi launched No. 400 over the center field wall Saturday during the third inning of Boston's contest against the Houston Astros, joining an elite club comprised of Ted Williams (521) and Carl Yastrzemski (452). The two-run jack cut Houston's lead to 5-3.
Ortiz wasn't done, though.
He wrapped another two-run shot — his 28th of the season and 459th of his career — around Pesky's Pole in the fifth inning, adding to what would eventually become a 7-6 Red Sox lead. Ortiz is the club leader in multi-home run games with 43, ahead of Ted Williams' 37.
.@davidortiz hit 2-run shot to make it 5-3. Only other active player w/ 400 homers for his current team is Paul Konerko of White Sox (432).—

Fugitive mom to be freed from Mich. jail
A broadcast on a prison television yesterday brought Susan LeFevre the best news she had heard in a long time.
The Michigan Parole Board had voted unanimously to release Carmel Valley's fugitive mom from prison. This time, her release will be legal.
"She called me, and she was very, very excited and happy and relieved," said her husband, Alan Walsh, who with their three children has stood by her.
But rather than release LeFevre immediately, the parole board will wait until May 19 – punishment for at least 10 misconduct infractions she's racked up in prison, said her attorney, Barbara Klimaszewski. They include disobeying direct orders and hiding prescription pills in her cell.
Prison authorities said they would be closely watching LeFevre's behavior pending her release.
"I'm sure it's going to be a long four months for her, but it's absolutely a victory," Klimaszewski said.
For now, LeFevre, 54, told her husband that she is counting the days – 111 of them, to be exact – until she can reunite with him and their son and two daughters in Carmel Valley. Her attorney anticipates no problems with transferring her parole to California.
"We just wish she could be home today," her husband said.
The board's decision is a triumph in a long legal battle for LeFevre, who found herself back behind bars 32 years after escaping over a barbed-wire prison fence and starting anew in California.
LeFevre was ripped from her comfortable life as housewife Marie Walsh in April, when a tipster led federal authorities to her door.
She tearfully pleaded with a judge to set aside her original sentence of 10 to 20 years for selling heroin as a teenager in Saginaw, Mich., in 1974, arguing that it was a severe sentence for a first-time offender.
LeFevre told the judge she would not have pleaded guilty to the charge had she known about the court's propensity for handing out the same sentence on all heroin cases.
Prosecutors wanted her to serve about three years of the drug sentence. Between her original time and the months she has served since being caught in April, she has served about two years.
LeFevre pleaded guilty to the escape charge and was sentenced to probation. A judge left it up to the parole board to decide when to release her.
Part of the board's decision yesterday was based a board member's video interview with LeFevre on Jan. 8. The 10-member panel then convened in Lansing yesterday to discuss the interview and other merits of the case. LeFevre was not present.
Russ Marlan of the Department of Corrections said the parole board noted that LeFevre had committed no crimes since her escape.
"The chairman summed it up: They want prisoners to walk out of prison and to live an existence like she lived, not committing violations of the law and living a productive life," Marlan said.
Laurie Lewis, a high school classmate who now lives in San Diego, said she was "sitting on pins and needles all day" waiting for the board's decision.

can getting pregnant reduce your milk supply? i have been having major issues with my supply, i cant keep my LO satisfied and i can't pump like i used to. i get just drops lately. im a little nervous to take a test and its too soon, got to wait another week
pregnant=low milk supply?
It's a Girl!� Mackenzie James born 2-4-2010
TTC # 3, hoping for a boy!!!
Yes it can. It is the hormones present during pregnancy that can affect your milk supply. But usually doesn't happen till end of pregnancy. If you want to know more you can go to the llli.org message boards. They know a lot.
But I do want to say that pumping is not an indicator of how much your LO eats or that your supply is low.
Also do you think you are dehydrated?
If you want to know about your supply may I ask how many wets your LO has been having?

***what RPL said :P ***
well up til about 2 weeks ago, i was pumping fine. my LO was nursing great too. now, she nurses in the am, and the rest of the day is a struggle. she's not getting enough to be satified so i have to supplement with a bottle of half and half. (to my dismay) and it breaks my heart when she fights me when nursing. she tries and tries to nurse, she starts suckling and then gets frustrated and then starts crying hard. I'm thinking there's no milk. and when i pump, i used to get a few ozs each time, now, just drops. my right breast has been dry several times when ive tried to pump
It's a Girl!� Mackenzie James born 2-4-2010
TTC # 3, hoping for a boy!!!
I lost my milk supply when I got pregnant with DD. Luckily, DS was right at one-year-old, and he just kind of self-weaned out of boredom and frustration. Have you tried any of the techniques to boost supply? (Oats, extra nursing, fenugreek, etc.)
I tried fenugreek this last week and got my period for the first time not sure if that is a sideeffect but seems like quite a coincidence so if you haven't gotten your period yet and your realy not pregnant i would suggest other options just in case
First time single mama to my beautiful baby girl Gia
Okay so informing people about supply issues is always a very sensitive topic. The reason is becaue most women don't have actual supply issue but they have another issue. That other issue goes misunderstood so mom starts supplementing. The supplementing then decreases time at breast which in turn does cause your supply to dip. My best guess would be that is what his happening here.
Keep in mind the fact that a BF baby will take a bottle after nursing does not mean your supply is low. A BF baby will drink from a bottle even when not hungry.
Also keep in mind that fussing at the breast is VERY normal and does not indicate a supply problem.
It sounds to me like you may have a slow let down? Is that possible? Or is your baby teething? Those are two reasons that a baby would suck and suck then start to cry. It doesn't mean your supply is low. When it is a slow let-down your baby just becomes a bit impatient. Do breast compressions and encourage them to suckle. Once you let-down they are usually fine. Teething can sometimes cause pain while sucking and thus a baby who is frustrated.
But because you have been supplementing you probably do need to raise your supply. Keep in mind that nursings is supply and demand. So the more you nurse the more milk you make. Pumping is not a substitute for nursing. To increase your supply have a nurse-in. Spend a weekend in bed with baby and nurse as often as possible. In the meantime drink lots of water, eat oatmeal for breakfest, and google lactation cookies.

i have gotten my period several times since giving birth. and yes, ive tried fenugreek, mothers milk tea, oatmeal, powerpumping....
It's a Girl!� Mackenzie James born 2-4-2010

Your period can also cause a temporary supply dip.
Really the best way to raise your supply is to try not to supplement LO. I mean if baby is starving obviously you have to but put baby to breast very very often and have some skin to skin contant when your LO isn't on the breast.

Yes, getting pregnant can affect your supply.
But the effects it may have on you could be vastly different than the effects pregnancy had on my milk production. I've nursed halfway through one pregnancy and all the way through two more. My supply didn't noticeably change until 16-18 weeks or so though. The end isn't exactly a walk in the park, but it's doable.
My 2yo was quite thrilled when my milk came back in after the babe was born though, and if it's been a day or two since she's nursed, sometimes she'll get this forlorn look and say "milkies" in a really sad way. So even tandem nursing can be done, just depends on you, your body, and your child(ren). ;)
Yes, I have four kids.� Yes, I'm not quite normal, it's okay, I already know.
I heard someone mention fenugreek. If you might be pregnant, DO NOT take fenugreek. It causes uterine contractions and can lead to miscarriage, especially in the first trimester.
Good luck with your supply. I did have to wean my LO when I got pregnant because my supply dipped way down, too.

Neat's debut EP 'A Light I Know' released on Airflex Labs a few months ago won support from a wide array of DJs, producers and promoters, including Sepalcure, Incyde, Jack Dixon, VVV, Whistla, Hush House, Ministry of Sound, Von D, Quantec, Phaeleh and many more. For his second strike, and first on vinyl, he joins forces with Submerse, the hottest new name in UK Garage, to deliver an amazing slow-paced track showcasing their common love for house and new breeds of bass music. Today's electronic music scene is experiencing an exciting and forward-thinking renewal of house music's style and pattern, and 'Close' is a moody and sensual hybrid that fits perfectly into this niche. Following the path pioneered by others such as Joy Orbison, Braiden, Sigha, Midland, Will Saul, BNJMN or Julio Bashmore, Neat and Submerse deliver a deep and delightful dancefloor worker, backed up with two amazing re-versions. Widely acclaimed NYC talent Drew Lustman aka FaltyDL unleashes his staggering production skills on a futuristic garage cut, taking the original track to a highly emotional and intense place of 808 mastery, where clipped percussions meet filtered reworks of the original's theme. Following that, Jack Dixon, one of UK's most promising young blood producers, gives 'Close' the heavy treament that is his sound signature. For his first appearance on vinyl after a brilliant debut EP on Silverback and various acclaimed reworks, Dixon delivers a shimmering remix where swirls of analogue synths fight an uncompromised drum kit, held firm by a massive sub layer that makes it an instant winner.

Child Soldiers
In some parts of the world children as young as seven are forced into armed combat, by rebel groups and sometimes even governments. This practice has constituted a war crime since 2002. According to figures from the United Nations, there are 250,000 child soldiers fighting in countries including Zimbabwe, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. In 2004 the UN Office of Co-ordination of Humanitarian Affairs revealed that as many as half of the world's child soldiers were based in Africa. In 2008 lawsuits were filed against three commanders of Congolese rebel groups at the International Court of Justice in The Hague in relation to the recruitment of child soldiers.
There are three main ways a child can be used by militia. The most obvious is turning them into armed soldiers, but children can also be used as spies or political tools such as human shields to prevent enemy attacks. This is typically done under duress and children may be drugged to keep them complicit. Child soldiers are considered easier to brainwash and a source of cheap labor; girls can be forced into sexual slavery. The use of force or compulsory recruitment of anyone under the age of 18 years to take part in armed conflict was named as one of the worst forms of child labor and also as a form of slavery by the International Labor Organization in 1999. Organizations dedicated to the eradication of the use of child soldiers have been working since the 1970s to raise awareness of their cause, with an international day, Red Hand Day, held on February 12 each year.
Under the UN's Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), Article 38 outlines the guidelines for countries to follow to prevent the use of children in conflict. It reads: "State parties shall take all feasible measures to ensure persons who have not attained the age of 15 years do not take a direct part in hostilities." At that time, the use of minors aged from 15 to 17 years old was permitted on a voluntary basis, however in 2002 further protocol was added to the Act. It underlined state parties "shall take all feasible measures to ensure that persons below the age of 18 do not take a direct part in hostilities and that they are not compulsorily recruited into the armed forces." Further articles of the Act declare member states take "all feasible measures to prevent such recruitment…including the adoption of legal measures necessary to prohibit and criminalize such practices," and that any member states with child soldiers as citizens would be required to demobilize them and aid with their physical and psychological recovery.
In July 2002 the use of child soldiers was officially defined as a war crime under Article 8.2.26 of the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court. It stated: "Conscripting or enlisting children under the age of 15 years into the national armed forces or using them to participate actively in hostilities is a war crime." International law does not prohibit the prosecution of children for war crimes, but the UN's Convention on the Rights of the Child ruled there were exceptions to the type of punishment a child should receive. It states: "Neither capital punishment, nor life imprisonment without possibility of release shall be imposed for offences committed by persons below the age of 18 years of age."
Under the Paris Principles of the UN Human Rights Commission, children who participated in armed conflict "…who are accused of crimes under international law allegedly committed while they were associated with armed forces or armed groups should be considered primarily as victims of offences against international law; not only as perpetrators. They must be treated in accordance with international law in a framework of restorative justice and social rehabilitation, consisted with international law which offers children special protection through numerous agreements and principles." This was followed by the Special Court for Sierra Leone when trying child soldiers who fought in conflict when they were aged between 15 and 17. Prosecutors in America wanted to abandon the Paris Principles when sentencing the former child soldier Omar Khadr, who was 15 when he killed an American soldier in Afghanistan in 2002. Their appeal for life imprisonment was eventually reduced to eight years as a result of a plea bargain.
