Charge your Mobile Phones without electricity in an emergency
It happens many time when our phone battery drains to 0 and we had no option left to recharge it. At that time you might be waiting for some emergency call or urgent phone. This guide based on many options to charge your phone without electricity. I tried to find the best solution that can be used under a emergency condition. The first easy which I recommend when you are basically traveling, is carrying a Travel charger with you. There are many models that you can find in your nearby store. Other than this I had mentioned some models also below. Along with battery drain I had mentioned some points which can be effective to save battery power if you own a smartphone. Why loose more battery. The most common reason is updates. If you phone is equipped with application which is associated with internet, it works in background and eats up resources which in the end led to completely battery drain. So the first thing which I do is connect the phone to my laptop via usb.
Some people also recommend carrying multiple batteries. But the problem appears at the time of charging. You will need to charge a battery then unplug it and then fix another and charger the phone back. Long hours of charging cause various problem with phone. Like a weaker power jack or heating up the internal parts which can reduce the battery life also. It gives a little help to make some calls and then in the end I go up for final charging. The article here is for everyone where you can carry much preventive measure to avoid battery loss and to charge the phone under extreme condition. Some methods need precautionary measure. So be careful if you carry any of them. The article here consist of products which are car charger kit, a travelling charger, solar charger or any ready to use item which can help you to charger your phone in absence of electricity. Such methods are very helpful.
Method 1 - Car Charger Kit
Car charger kit are the most easy to find out. They are widely available and are the cheapest alternative in comparison to Travelling charger. A full fledge car charger kit comes with various extension that support a number of device. It does not matter what phone you carry. The kit comes with number of connectors. So first thing before buying it find that you have an appropriate connector in similar to your phone. The most famous today is micro usb connector which is used in many Smartphone. Blackberry phones are bit different. So a special connector is needed. The same lies for Apple products. A regular car charger can cause from Rs. 310 to Rs. 2000 depend on the make you are buying and also for the product required. The cheapest one is Samsung Car Charger CAD300UBE (Black) which I saw on Flipkart for Rs.310.
Griffin Technology: Griffin offers a number of kit for Apple, Blackberry, HTC, Motorola, Samsung, etc. There are phone kits with charger support that can be used easily with any car. They offer car chargers for Tablets also. Check the below images. There are series of car chargers manufactured by Griffin for various devices. The image below is a Universal charger used for various Smartphones. The price is $19.99 which is worth to buy.
Belkin MicroUSB Car Charger : This is another nice product for the same purpose. It is a universal charger with supports a series of devices. The product come with a year warranty and easy to carry in your bag. So the next time when you phone battery drain fast you can try this out to get enough power for some time. This type of charger also called as cigarette lighter charger which is found widely on eBay and Amazon.

Method 2 - Travel Chargers
Travel chargers are kind of portable devices that can be used whenever you do not have any source of electricity. They come in number of variety. Some are also equipped with battery support. Travel Chargers are not costly product. They are must to have in your bag when you are travelling. So here I had mentioned both products. One that comes with a portable battery support and one without that. What we are really irritated that when we are out we do not find the right socket to charge our devices. Some charger offers you a multiple connectors that can fix to almost any devices. While some helps you to charger a single type of device with current battery power. What is recommended that you must go for that which offers you more connectivity solution.

The only thing it lacks that it does has any portable battery support. You will have to find a power socket with it. Fix the adapter and connect your device. So it is good if you are out or staying in a Hotel. CharePod is recommended for those who carry a number of different devices with them. So they are sorted out and do not require to carry a separate charger for each and every device. Right now the manufacturer claims that it supports more than 3,000 devices. It is very light to carry and hassle free to connect.
CallPod FuelTank : FuelTank is another most portable device that you can carry in your pocket. It comes with rechargeable lithium ion battery.

Green technology used offers you a unlimited source of power for which you do not require to pay. Solar charger allows you to have a free energy source whenever you are under sun. So a eco friendly device and easy to carry out. The only thing this solar charger lack is low charging time. It takes many hours or even a full day to get fully charged batteries. But as they come with dual interface where you can also charge the phone with regular wall socket.

GRAHAM, Wash. (AP) — The long, bizarre case of a Utah woman missing for two years took a horrific turn Sunday when a powerful house explosion killed the woman's husband and his two young sons, moments after the boys arrived for a visit that was supposed to be supervised by a social worker.
Authorities say it appears the husband, Josh Powell, blew the house up on purpose.
BLACKFOOT — The Blackfoot Broncos got 33 points from senior Trae Pilster as they avenged their season opening loss at Pocatello with a hard fought 64-51 home win over the Indians on Saturday evening.
"I think that the difference tonight was that we just have a lot more games under our belts and we are starting to get used to playing together," Pilster said. "As the season has gone along we continue to get better and better each week and we played really good team basketball tonight."
POCATELLO — The Snake River Lady Panthers may want to consider a mascot name change from the Panthers to the Pythons because on Saturday afternoons opening round 37-26 win over Bear Lake, the Ladies in Purple simply squeezed the life out of the Bears in one of the more impressive defensive efforts of the season.
"From start to finish the kids just came out and pressured them all over the court," Snake River head coach Rich Dunn said. "I don't think that they felt any fresh air all night long to breath in and it all started with our bigs down low."
Attorney Cleve Colson has announced that he is running for the office of Bingham County Prosecuting Attorney.
Colson is a lifelong resident of Bingham County. He began his career at the Bannock County Prosecutor's Office in 2005 and is currently Bannock County's assistant chief deputy prosecutor.
REXBURG — The Blackfoot Broncos showed a ton of grit on Friday evening as they fell behind by double-digits to the Madison Bobcats but never quit, eventually pulling to within 2 points in the final minutes. The comeback stalled out however as Madison held off the Blackfoot rally with a 52-47 High Country Conference victory.
"That's one of the things that I just love about this team," Blackfoot assistant coach Jared Arave said. "This team just doesn't lay down and die. We could have easily lost by 20 points tonight but they just keep fighting."
Hobbs Middle School teacher Jill Wray is undergoing treatments for cancer. She teaches home economics and science.
Three boys in Natural Helpers decided they could help Wray and her family, said Teresa Dye, the club's advisor at Shelley High School.
"They wanted to let them know that we care," Dye said.
The 22 students in the Natural Helpers class at Shelley High School had been challenged to make "an ultimate gift."
Two businesses are donating to the Wray fundraiser.
Dr. Heather Bourkovski, a former resident of Blackfoot, is giving a local woman an incredible opportunity. Bourkovski bought a plane ticket for Brady Meline, a sufferer of rare heart problems. Bourkovski's generosity will allow Meline to travel to Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, to seek specialized treatment for her condition.
BOISE, Idaho (AP) — The head of memory chip maker Micron long known for taking risks in stunt piloting died Friday when a small experimental plane he was piloting steeply banked, stalled and crashed near an Idaho runway.
Steve Appleton, who survived a similar crash eight years ago and had a reputation as a hard-driving daredevil, was the only person aboard the plane when witnesses said it crashed shortly after its second take-off attempt in Boise, according to safety investigators.
SHELLEY — The Blackfoot Broncos picked up their third duel win in two days time as they took advantage of a short handed Shelley Russet squad with a convincing 69-12 team win on Thursday evening.
The win came on the heels of a tri-match sweep over Century and Pocatello on Wednesday night where they pounded the Diamondbacks 61-22 and then closed out a game Indian squad 40-27.
FIRTH — The Firth Cougars celebrated senior night but in the end it was the Snake River Panthers who picked up the duel win on Thursday evening as the Panthers won the cat fight 41-36.
"It was a tough match but I knew that it would be because Firth has a quality program," Snake River head coach Jeff Gardner said. "We had a couple of key matches to get the team win with Kaden Bench at 120 and Manny Trejo at 170."
Bench, who normally wrestles at 113 moved up to 120 for the Panthers on on Thursday evening and he came up aces with a hard fought 8-2 decision over Jackson Thompson.

Top Gun just doing a "fly-by"...
New to rural Port Perrry (Scugog), and the dog and I are keen to meet some locals, in and around the area. Just your typical "Joe Canadian" with an above-average personality, new to the area (from Toronto - yeah, I don't fully know why I moved to the country!?!?!) and looking to date. I'm looking for cool guys in the area to hang with, and if a partner happens to be a result one day, I"m no commitment-phobe. It should be known, I love my weekly hockey (actually playing the game, not watching as a crazed fan!), I'm employed in a cool career, have a car (Just got it in May), and own a dog - my best friend :) I can party, have to say! Both with friends and family often. If I can host the party, even better, but I don't cook very well, so don't count on me for the food! I'm more of a bartender than a chef. And (eventually) hosting with a partner-in-crime is always way cooler than going it alone! So, here's your "Around the Mavrik in 80 seconds": Only child Raised by single mom, never met dad Grew-up in Newmarket area (Mt. Albert) on horse farms mainly Addicted to Comedy Central on Serius Sat Obviously, with the above likes to smile and laugh Can be a royal b*tch, if the situation warrants it though A god-father (I think I'd like one of my own kids some day.. maybe, who knows), Professional career (HR Director) and have worked at same company the past 14 years, I'm pretty masculine, but still quite gay (LOL - perhaps I'm the only onw ho will know what I mean here) Ran a gay youth group 1993-1995 (LGBYT), Worked at Zelda's Livingwell Restaurant (Toronto) as bookeeper it's first year Love elections and Olympic coverage on TV (a bit addicted sometimes), Enjoy cottage activities like horseshoes, jet-skiing, ATVing, reading and boardgames (Settlers of Catan is my fav), Can play poker and chess, though I'm not very good at all, Camping/canoeing rocks and I miss it immensely, Dog is an American Cockerspaniel - "Kramer" And have a tatoo "Made in Canada". Like to actually carry conversation/chat. Usually a little reserved initially, so getting my personal contact info won't be forthcoming until I'm convinced you're genuine - but I'll be very polite about how I decline *grin*. For the rest, you'll just have to msg or chat me up.... For now, just a connection to chat is good for me, and take it from there - slowly.

Sundown: Post- Denominational Pals
High-priced holidays, blushing brides, and a wasted plea
• A Modern Orthodox synagogue in New Orleans lost its home in Hurricane Katrina; since then, it has developed a partnership with a local Reform congregation, and will be constructing a new building on their land. Says one official, this unusual camaraderie is indicative of the ŌĆ£rosy futureŌĆØ for New OrleansŌĆÖ Jews. [JTA]
• Via a peculiar rant that starts off bemoaning ChicagoŌĆÖs lack of an authentically dirty Jewish deli, a Sun Times columnist discusses the dilemma of expensive tickets for High Holiday services in tough times, and for a population that ŌĆ£risks evaporating into the anything-goes polychromatic wasteland of American culture.ŌĆØ [CST]
• Some Jewish federations in Florida are offering money to Jewish students who stay in-state for college; an example is the Thelma and Isador S. Segall scholarship, presumably set up in a bid to keep its honorees first namesŌĆÖ from remaining among the most popular in the state. [New Voices]
• In its own desperate bid to restore modesty to its tarted-up student body, an ultra-Orthodox girlsŌĆÖ yeshiva in Israel is offering a scholarship of about $265 to anyone who agrees not to wear makeup on her wedding day. [Ynet]
• South African president Jacob Zuma gave a stirring message imploring expat Jews to return home and rejoin the community. The only problem is, he was speaking to Jews who are still in S.A. [JTA]

This type of instrument is usually a tube that makes a sound when air is blown through it. Some of these are played by the musician blowing air directly into the tube through the mouthpiece, such as when playing the saxophone, while others only require the musician to blow air over the mouthpiece, such as when playing the flute. Unlike the string instruments, or some percussion instruments, many wind instruments don't require as much tuning, if even necessary. This particular group of instruments is also seen as instruments that are a little easier to learn and play. While this might be true, they do offer their own challenge. Many of these instruments require good posture and good strong lungs to be able to introduce enough air into the instrument in order to maintain control of the air flow as well as to produce the sound that is required.sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-85973157730713166592015-05-12T12:27:00.000-04:002015-05-12T12:27:50.188-04:00Ovation GuitarsIt's about a year now since I graduated college and it has been weeks of doing nothing since I took my Board Examination for Nurses here in the Philippines. As I wait for my examination results, I have these empty days that need to be occupied with something I'd love doing. Suddenly, it's just then when I realize that there's something which I had always loved to do then but I wasn't able to fulfill. It's none other than to learn how to play ovation guitars. I wasn't really given a chance to learn how to play these instruments and I am so delighted to find out that time isn't that late for me to take up some guitar lessons. sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-11606770492258543782015-04-16T12:59:00.002-04:002015-04-16T12:59:13.365-04:00Outdoor Sporting Goods

It is finally getting warm here in the north land. I can already smell the summer season. During summer, some of the things that I would like to do are gardening and fishing. Those are my hobbies since I have moved here to the north country. I have not tried going out camping just yet but it might be a good idea to try it out this coming summer. With that being said, I need to start looking around for camping gear tents. At AvidMax, I found a wide selection of camping gear to choose from. I need to tell my husband about my camping plans so we can buy a tent soon especially now that AvidMax is offering free shipping on orders over $15 on all of their outdoor sporting goods.

Since my favorite season of the year is summer, there are so much outdoor activities I can do. Not to mention the fishing, camping and gardening, I will also be playing tennis for the very first time this year. As soon as the warm weather trend continues, I will start playing. I have already bought the stuff that I need for playing tennis so I am all set & ready to go. I bought most of it at a nearby store just last week. Too bad I did not know about AvidMax before then. Anyhow, feel free to visit AvidMax online for all of outdoor sporting goods and accessories need.sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-26338127051260108752015-03-10T12:45:00.001-04:002015-03-10T12:45:32.041-04:00Eminence SpeakersNow that the warm weather has arrived for good here in northern Minnesota, it is nice to sit on our deck with a cup of coffee in the morning and maybe a cocktail in the evening. The only thing missing would be some eminence speakers. I like to play my music when I work in the kitchen but we don't have any outdoor speakers on the deck. I would really like to look at getting a pair so we can relax and listen to music outside when the weather is nice.sweet_angelhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-9890098724611613352015-01-19T16:53:00.000-05:002015-01-19T16:53:22.813-05:00Trying to be a Dance DoctorI am trying to be a dance doctor of myself, especially now that the bikini season is just around the corner even though, in reality, we are only half through the winter season. I try to think that summer will be here soon so I work harder to getting in shape. Right now, I mix zumba and yoga in my exercise routine and so far, I have been doing well. I am still 95 lbs @ 4'11. Usually, at this time of the year, I already put on some weight because of the holiday season that has just passed. Fortunately, I did not and I want to keep that way. sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-89552138775455215742014-12-08T11:30:00.000-05:002014-12-08T15:18:47.888-05:00Solid Body Electric Guitars

When I was still in the Philippines, I bought a guitar for my father's church. It was a cheapo kind and I don't know if it is still in working order. I am thinking about buying my father a better one soon. I have been browsing through Gibson solid body electric guitars and look forward to be able to buy him a Gibson 2014 Les Paul Traditional Electric Guitar Heritage cherry sunburst the next time I see him. I think his ministry deserves a Gibson guitar :-). sweet_angelhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-6941511952229569352014-12-05T15:01:00.000-05:002014-12-08T15:21:35.596-05:00Car Oil Changed?It looks like my hubby will finally get the car oil changed today. It took him almost a month to get this work taken care of. Eventually, changing our car's oil will only take him fifteen minutes but something always comes up every time he has tried to work on it. If it was not his back and leg pain, it would be the oil filter wrench. The last time we went to town, we went to four different stores to get the right oil filter wrench. We already had the right size but my hubby could not find it. Yeah, you know that kind of thing when you need it, you can't find it.

I was in the garage when he started working on it. I want to know how to do it. Changing car oil is easy and simple but putting the car on the ramp is the challenging part. I don't think I could put the car on the ramp by myself.sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-389110578268763772014-11-18T10:57:00.002-05:002014-11-18T10:57:33.644-05:00Acoustic Guitars

This Takamine G FXC G260C Acoustic Guitar is one of the takamine guitars at guitarcenter that you can find. I bought my father's church an acoustic guitar seven years ago but it was not a Takamine guitar. It was just a cheapo kind but they are making a good use of it until now. I did now expect that it would last this long. If that guitar breaks, I will buy them a fancier guitar. That would be my gift for the church. sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-19801911644041552612014-10-15T14:39:00.000-04:002014-10-15T14:39:49.872-04:00Musical InstrumentHere in the north country, there are a lot of ex-pat Filipina women married to American men. We like to get together on a regular basis and have parties and music is always a big part of them. There always seems to be a karaoke player available and at the bigger Christmas parties we even have DJs with the full blown sound systems available. This last Christmas we missed having the big party because some of the key people were out of the country. I have always thought it would be fun to be a DJ but I haven't got the equipment to do the job. I was looking at the musician's friend website and they have some really cool musical instrument that would be great to get started with. sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-70703661796915852322014-10-03T17:30:00.000-04:002014-11-18T11:00:06.085-05:00Happy ;-)I have been feeling happy lately. I don't want to end this feeling soon. It is probably because my hubby has not been in as much pain recently. He doesn't feel completely well yet but he is definitely feeling much better than the last couple of months. I was very scared at that time. I broke down many times and thought that I was going to be hospitalized as well. The situation was too much to handle for me. It was very difficult. Now I know how hard it is to live far away from your loved ones. In times like these, they are a great comfort.sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-11697049408763351512014-09-18T12:09:00.000-04:002014-09-18T12:09:05.391-04:00NC Health Insurance AgencyWhen it comes to your health, never settle for less.

He was never the best at paper work but he was really good at actual engineering. He could have hired a CPA to do all that stuff for him but he opted to try to do it all himself. He had a little run in with the IRS towards the end because he was late on his taxes. He had paid everything ahead of time and there was a very minor error. We thought they wouldn't give us a big hassle but they did. It took us more than a dozen exchanges of communications to get the problem straightened out.

We were thinking about leaving it hooked up to the truck outside because we are planning to go fishing again soon. When we realized that the weather forecast was for a strong thunderstorm this evening, we decided to put the boat in the garage. After helping my hubby guide the boat into the garage, I went to the garden to bury the fish remains we caught yesterday. He was pushing the boat back when the third wheel on the trailer collapsed. It was a fold up third wheel to support the front of the boat when the trailer hitch was not hooked up on the truck. He failed to properly latched the third wheel when he folded it down and the trailer hitch almost hit his foot when the third wheel collapsed. I did not know what happened, I just heard a big bang. When I found out what happened, I cringed at the thought of what might have been. It was a really close call. It could have crushed his foot.sweet_angelhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-41582114256564588342014-04-24T12:21:00.000-04:002014-04-24T12:23:35.874-04:00Product FulfilllmentIf you have the need for a fulfillment service company, consider checking out AMS Fulfillment.

I just woke up and hopefully today will be a blessed day for me both on my blogging and to my family back home. I miss them so much but I need to endure because I am now married and in the process of building a family of my own.

I would like to get a Scouting Camera for the summer fun in the woods. That would be a handy tool to bring along when camping out or when going to the blueberry patch. I want to take pictures of the strange creatures eating my blueberries. I have yet to tell my husband about the plan though because he recently bought me a nice DSLR camera. The thought of getting one of these trail cameras came after I saw a wide variety of them at Trailcampro.com. sweet_angelhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-40030355928881892012014-02-02T00:54:00.000-05:002014-02-10T16:45:48.541-05:00In PainI spent the whole day in bed today. I wasn't feeling good. My eyes were hurting and so was my head. I took aspirin earlier tonight hoping that it would help to ease the pain. I took a few sips of a screw driver and I noticed that it did help relax my muscles. I didn't have a chance to update my blogs because I couldn't stay online that long. I tried to stay away from looking outside because the sunlight is bright and it hurts my eyes. In fact while I was in bed my whole body was under a heavy blanket. I tried to sleep but I couldn't. Hopefully I will feel better tomorrow because I have a lot of things to do in the house and here on my blogs.sweet_angelhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-42838673601572099022014-01-22T11:59:00.002-05:002014-01-22T12:01:31.242-05:00Keep Your Home Warm This Winter

I'm so tired and I feel like going to bed pretty soon. I have two reserved opportunities but I think I will just let them expire.

There are so many things that can be done and experience best outdoor, as an out-goer person, I can attest to that. I am a type of person who really loves outdoor and one who stays a lot in our home terrace. It just makes me feel light, relaxed, and happy to see the green colors of my plants and smell the fragrance of my flowers as I indulge myself under the sun's rays in the morning. For me, it's the best place to sip my coffee and think things over, however, these precious moments of mine are destroyed whenever the rain wets my throne. It's when it pours over my cushioned seat. Nevertheless, today with my new foam seat perfect for outdoor cushions, I could enjoy the dew of rain's aftermath and sip my coffee, because it dries quickly even after a complete saturation. It's even anti-microbial that makes it convenient and safe.sweet_angelhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-24221932927820429862013-12-20T11:55:00.000-05:002013-12-22T13:39:53.012-05:00It's WorkingOur wood burning stove in the living room is up and running now. My hubby finally fixed it yesterday. I really miss sitting in front of the fire feeling like I'm in the Philippines. Last night while my hubby and I were watching television, I sat right next to it. I was enjoying watching the fire. I'm really happy that it is working now. When we encountered problems with it I thought we had wasted our money. We bought it as an investment that would help us save money heating the house. We didn't need to buy any of the wood that we were burning because we were cutting the dead trees in our yard.sweet_angelhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877500056841775342.post-45052471981374813872013-12-18T08:18:00.003-05:002013-12-18T08:21:55.597-05:00Benefits of Utilizing a Conception calculatorYou'll have the ability to discover probably the most fertile times of menstrual period via a Pregnancy calculator.

President Obama to Address Situation in Ferguson, Missouri
Thursday, August 14, 2014
The White House says President Barack Obama is being briefed on the situation in a St. Louis suburb where police used tear gas and smoke bombs to repel protesters.
The demonstrations in Ferguson, Missouri, have been sparked by the death of an unarmed teenager who was shot by a police officer. The officer is white and 18-year-old Michael Brown was black.
Obama was expected to speak about the situation Thursday from Martha's Vineyard, the Massachusetts island where he is vacationing. His remarks were expected to follow his second briefing on the matter in as many days.

It's almost 12:45. Where is our fearless leader now???
It's time the police learned that they can no longer militarize against the citizens of this country. No more excessive force from police who are supposed to protect and serve. Sometimes it takes force to overcome force. A little thing that happened in our nations history called the American Revolution.

The list goes on!When I first signed up on rated people I was very anxious about the whole experience.. But by the time I was contacted by Thebuilderssw all my fears seemed to have just vanished into thin air! From start to finish the whole team was a delight to be around!

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. – The Springfield Police Department says a 1-year-old child was killed in an accident Sunday evening.
The accident happened in the 2300 Block of east Atlantic Street in north Springfield.
Police got the call just before 7:00 p.m. Sunday evening. Police say the family at the home called to say the child was accidentally run over by a truck that was being worked on in the back yard.
The child's parents weren't home at the time and the boy was being cared for by other relatives.
Police say the family is cooperating in the investigation and they do not believe foul play is involved.
KOLR 10 has a crew on the scene and will bring more details as we learn them.

Rainbow Baby Girl due March 2015!
Richard Joseph-6/12/08 (my 6 year old premie!!)
Leo Alexander-05/01/09 (Showing autism whatfor!!!!)
My son is almost for months and smiles so big. It like wow. He even laughs every now and then. (at dad)
Nope. Totally get them too. Especially since Eli will be 1 in less than a month!!!
Actually I don't think I EVER got over the sappy emotional movies, commercials, songs, etc even AFTER being preggo! LOL
Mommy to 2 preemies and 1 termie, all boys ages 8 (36 weeker 12/02),�6 (37 weeker 4/05) and�3 (25 weeker 5/08)! RIP ROBERT LAWRENCE 11/20/51 - 4/26/10
my dd is going to be 2 in a few weeks, she was born at 32 weeks and we almost lost her several times and she spent a good 6 weeks in the Nicu and was then back and forth in the hospital for a few more weeks.
Everyday I have moments where I look at her and just want to burst into tears cause she's come SOOO far! And for a while there I didn't think she'd ever make it this far. Every new accomplishment gets celebrated more than I ever thought I would.
I'm not preggo so I can tell you it's not jus the hormones-it's how amazing our children are, especially after all that they go through as preemies. :)
Jamie,mommy to Adrianna and Trenton (another preemie!)�
You are not alone. Little E is almost 10 months old. He was a 30 weeker born while I was on a business trip! The whole thing was so hard and the moments come to me in flashes and I feel so lucky that he is healthy and strong. I can't even imagine if we had lost this little guy.
I have those moments too. It has been exacerbated since his 1st birthday is less than 2 weeks away and we almost lost him. I cried the other day when I passed the helipad he was airlifted from. Funny thing, I pass the thing at least once a week but it got me the other day. K pulled up to his knees on his own the other day and I lost it. DH looked at me like I was crazy.
I too have flashbacks. I wonder if there is a NICU PTSD or something because the flashbacks can be awful.
To realize the value of one month: Ask a mother who has given birth to a premature baby.
I had so many ups and downs while pg with Susanna and just the fact that she's here and doing so well and looks so perfect in my eyes always makes me feel sappy.
mom to Elisabeth, Tim and Susanna
Be kinder than necessary for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.
you totally just made me tear up :P i am sure we all have those moments. It's amazing how far our little ones have come :)

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), on Monday, penalised 22 banks by imposing fines for violating Know-Your-Customer (KYC) norms and anti-money laundering guidelines. The list includes banks such as SBI, Bank of Baroda and Canara Bank all of whom were fined Rs.3 crore each.
The RBI said that it "came to the conclusion that some of the violations were substantiated and warranted imposition of monetary penalty." The central bank also issued "cautionary letters" to seven other banks including Citibank, Standard Chartered and Barclays as no violation of serious nature by them was established.
The violations by the public sector banks were revealed in a sting operation by online portal, Cobrapost, reported in May.
Though it imposed penalties, the RBI said that its investigation did not reveal any prima facie evidence of money laundering. Any conclusive inference in this regard can be drawn only by an end to end investigation of the transactions by tax and enforcement agencies, the central bank statement said.

Six Senses Ninh Van Bay, Six Senses Spa and our hosts are committed to improving the ecological and carbon footprint from activities associated with the resort and spa operations. We are committed to developing a sustainable environment.
We will continuously monitor our performance and responsible activities against the targets and goals set by Six Senses, which will be adjusted, amended and acted upon wherever appropriate.
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter
find another resort or spa
To support our environmental and social sustainability activities we have developed policies and procedures in line with Six Senses standards. These policies and procedures will be renewed at least annually to ensure that we are always current in our approaches.
We are committed to comply, wherever possible improving upon, Vietnam and international legislative environmental requirements, such as environmental, public and occupational health and safety, hygiene and employment legislation.
We shall, wherever possible and feasible, give preference to the employment of persons living in Ninh Van Bay or nearby areas, local products and services which do not adversely affect the resort's operational activities, viability and environmental and social impacts
Six Senses Ninh Van Bay is the epitome of the Six Senses' commitment to create award-winning and exceptional guest experiences in places of incredible natural beauty. Each Six Senses resort has been placed in a unique environment in harmony with nature and with its own highlights. One of the highlights at Ninh Van Bay is its biodiversity, with its own coral reef within the sand fringed bay.
With this commitment, comes the responsibility for Six Senses Ninh Van Bay to improve its methods of sustainability and decrease any environmental impact that's attributed to the operation. We need to do everything in our power to protect and preserve this highly sensitive ecosystem for nature and for our guests.
Due to this reason we have entered a partnership with two young and very experienced marine biologists from the Netherlands. Mr. Thomas Swierts and Ms. Selma Ubels are both Bachelors of Sciences in Marine Biology, from the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands, and are currently working on their master thesis of science, where Selma focuses on environmental biology and Thomas on the sustainability, diversity and protection of coral reefs. Both have participated in various fieldwork and research projects around the globe from Indonesia to South America. They combine the latest scientific knowledge, technology, and proven skills gained over their numerous years of experience in the field.
The coral project at Ninh Van Bay will comprise several stages.
The initial project was from March 18 until April 11, 2013. The main objective of this stage was to establish a swimming and snorkeling pathway through the reef and create an inventory of our marine life - both fish and corals. With this action we aim to protect the reef from further damage. The marine biologists will also train the resort team on the aquatic flora and fauna, which will enable our hosts to make snorkeling trips inside the bay for our guests. We will continue to strive and develop our environmental awareness amongst our guests and hosts, in the effort to conserve these areas of natural beauty.
The biologists will create an outlook for the future of our reef, on how it will evolve over the next 3 to 5 years. They will give us guidelines on how we can keep our reef healthy and preserve it for future generations.
The second stage will be more active, as we will directly get involved in our own coral preservation and focus on coral reef restoration. The idea is that our guests can actually adopt their own coral patch, where they re-attach broken shards of living coral to natural frameworks adjacent to the natural reef; a similar concept as to planting your own tree. This stage is still in the development process and needs further background knowledge about the bay and reef conditions, which has been gathered in the first step.
The Six Senses Ninh Van Bay Management Team visited "Bong La" Village near "Thien An" Boarding house in Pleiku. The boarding school has over 100 children of which 24 are orphans and 5 severely handicapped children, all are being provided with a home and education. The initiators for the construction and funding of the Boarding house in Pleiku are Ms. Oanh Le Tinh and Mr. Jan Peters who started the foundation 'Live and Give' in Belgium to help disadvantaged children of Vietnam.
Bong La is a small village located 10 kilometers from the Thien An boarding school. Bong La has one spring that over 500 people use for drinking water, washing and bathing, this stream is now quite contaminated and the children have been suffering from scabies. The water is not being boiled before drinking and for some it is a few kilometers to walk from home to the stream.
Six Senses Ninh Van Bay has donated funds for installing the water well, water filter and bathing facilities. Six Senses uses the revenues from the sales of their 'wellness water' to guests at the resort to help finance this project. Six Senses wellness water is an initiative to mitigate carbon emissions by making healthy water on site at the resort reducing the need to import water from thousands of miles away. Whilst also using the revenue from the sales of the wellness water for water projects around the world.
The success of this project will be beneficial to the whole village by providing clean safe water while also reducing the high usage of the spring water for other villagers

som i'm doing some testing on jQuery.data(), and i'm trying to greate a local reference to a certain data-key, which i hopefully can change locally and still affect "outside". I think it would be better with an example, due to the semi-long code i posted it on jsFiddle instead of here:
the output i hope for is:
{1: {length: 1}, total: 1}
but only the length property is affected by incrementing the local variable:
{1: {length: 1}, total: 0}
what should i do??

And be thrilled that they're not (badly) remaking the good old Oscar winners about the mentally challengedlike Charly, whose glamorous costar Claire Bloom just told me at her Academy salute, "There's so little brains around that they probably will remake it. They're remaking everything!" (I didn't remind her that there already was a rotten Broadway musical based on the property.)
Meanwhile, Oscar winner Hilary Swank jump-starts the French Revolution through jewelry in the lush The Affair of the Necklace, and though the reviews have been lousy, at least it's not a disability flick called The Affair of the Neckbrace. The ceaselessly charming Ivana Trump cohosted the premiere and told me, "I have a special feel for the movie because it was shot in Prague and I'm Czech. In fact, I acted in three movies as a child for the Barandov Studio. But I didn't have the patience to sit in trailers day after dayand you need to have talent!" Still, she must have been a cute little bouncing Czech.
When the epic ended, Ivana cooed, "It was beautiful. I'm not that crazy about a necklace, but I love to dress up!" (By the way, she was wearing a necklace the size of Staten Island, and spies say she banged on the doors of a closed bank to get it out of the vault for this event!) In another corner, Swank gushed to me, "The costumes were beautiful. Milena Canonero is a complete . . . " "Bitch?" I said, smirking, and director Charles Shyer, thinking I was being serious, said, "Well, she's a perfectionist and that can be interpreted as . . . " (I love trapping these people into uncorking truthlets.)
And there was yet more sooth to be said, over drop earrings and prosciutto. At a follow-up dinner at Ecco! hosted by Ivana and writer Richard Turley, zesty pardon queen Denise Rich entertained me with tidbits like "The king of Swaziland decreed that if anyone tries to have sex with a girl under 19, they have to sell their cow." ("Who needs a stupid cow anyway?" might be a common response.) More personally, Rich revealed that she recently called the police when she saw a lot of ambiguous-looking white stuff falling outside her window. The woman actually thought terrorist planes were dropping something dangerous, but once the cops finally came over, they determined what the shit really waspollen! So Bin Laden is now going after our allergies? That diabolical bastard!
Some respite for itchy sinuses and cranky minds? John Leguizamo's zippy new showwhich should be retitled The Pinga Monologuesis like a really good fuck. And at Caroline's, Mario Cantonethe funniest man (and woman) in the free worlddid his own hilarious sex monologue, starting by noticing a table of West Virginians and shrieking, "There are fucking children in the room! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck!" Cantone barreled on like a porn star, assaulting the likes of Michael Jackson ("a Precious Moments figurine"), September 11 ("It happened just when I was coming out of my depression"), and Anne Heche ("That fucking douche bag! She can't take care of her fucking self, and she's having a baby? 'Oh, Anne, what a lovely victim you have'!")
By the way, Mario recorded the voice of the campy flamingo for the Macy's ninth-floor puppet show about Percy the penguinnot that I paid $2.50, sat with the screaming toddlers, and watched the thing, mind you. (Well, all right, I did; it was over that long weekend, and I thought it could be a sort of Puppetry of the Penguin. Besides, it was a chance to catch more Mario, seeing as they postponed Assassins, in which he was going to play the guy who wanted to hijack a plane and crash it into the White House to kill Nixon. "I know how to pick 'em!" said the comic, vigorously kicking himself.)
That infantilizingly boring weekend also brought me to the new Toys "R" Us in Times Squarefour timeswhere the gigantic indoor Ferris wheel is a wonderful, sick touch that FAO Schwarz will probably need to top with some falling pollen. You have to buy tickets hours in advance, but that gives you time to play with Nutcracker Barbie and think about how, if Times Square plunges economically, the ride will become a gigantic porno wheel!
Speaking of raw penetration, I hear folks have copped some great heedthat's how Heidi Klum pronounced legendary designer Edith Head's last name on the supermodel version of Millionairedownstairs at Triple XXX, Dean Johnson's and Johnny McGovern's gay Thursday night party at the Hole. Upstairs, I asked the DJ, Lily of the Valleywho memorably played a drag queen in Wonder Boysabout his new Toyota commercial, in which he wildly makes out with a girl in the desert. "I'm versatile!" exclaimed Lily, who could probably even do disabilities.
All-around performer David Ilku has dissing abilities; he's highly visible in a commercial for Listerine PocketPaks, but it's not as aromatic as it sounds. As Ilku told me, "I went in with messy hair, thinking I was hip and cool, and of course they flattened it and tried to make me as Middle America as they could. The lights were blinding, and I had to put little pieces of plastic in my mouth over and over again instead of the actual strips, because my tongue would have turned green had I done that. The corners of the plastic pieces poked into my tongue, which made it very uncomfortable . . . " Stop right there, honey. Nothing you say will quell my burning drive to be on national television. I'd even sell my cow!
By the way, I don't know who's poking his tongue into what, but I loved Liz Smith's crafty little item: "Tom and Penélope's last names are, after all, homophones."
Out and about, my sources tell me that Lynne Cheney recently hung out with her lesbian daughter at a gay bar in Denver called JR.'s Bar & Grill. At this place, no woman asks "Where's Dick?"
Pee-pees were practically in jars at trannie extraordinaire Amanda Lepore's birthday bash at Spa, which was such a fun, debauched blowout I kept expecting the MC from Cabaret to walk in and start branding us. At the climax, I asked Amanda how old she is and she gave the perfect answer: "Fine. How are you?"
Well, I'm not fine, honey, on hearing that my boyfriend, Jimmy Fallon, is now closerthanthis with actress turned Imitation of Christ diva Tara Subkoff. I'll get the little witch and show her what paranoid schizophrenia is like without the sugarcoating!

Brought to you by
So I've been think about what I'm going to do when the baby gets here I get three months off my job and well idk what I should do.. I would love for my mom to take care of the baby while I'm at work and. I know it will be cheaper for us to do that but my hubby assures me that she will be better at daycare.. And well frankly I'm having a bit of a panic attack over it I don't want my 3 month old to be at day care.. So soon . I'm even think about stay home and not coming back to work until I feel comfortable letting her go to day care.. Idk yet what I'm going to do? Any advice any ideas? Oh I'm a FTM So never been in this situation and neither has my hubby.
We avoided day care with our first lo by working opposite schedules. I only work 3 days a week and a nights. Its rough but worth it.
I just don't like the idea of sending him to daycare. Nothing wrong with daycare its just a personal choice.
In feb my mom is actually able to retire and will be watching both of our babies. I feel more comfortable with family watching them. Plus its more focused on them instead of sending them to daycare where each person watches about 4 kids.
I am a FTM as well and plan on having my mom and MIL help. I work from home, but will still need the help.
I would definitely have to do some mental prep if I had to make that decision to do daycare as well- and budgeting!
The thought of daycare never appealed to me with my first bc I was breastfeeding and a lot of people don't know how to handle breastmilk properly. My sister worked at 3 different daycares in 2 different states and said not one of them showed the caregivers how to warm up/handle the breastmilk properly without it basically ruining it. I decided to stay at home bc my mil still works so wouldn't be able to babysit for us. The only reason why I would want to send my now 16 month old to daycare is so that she can play with kids her age but I just try to schedule play dates with other sahm every once in awhile Do what feels best for you and your husband. If you can financially stay at home and it's something that appeals to you, talk to your husband about it otherwise I would personally try to talk him into grandma babysitting.
If you choose the daycare route just be sure that you pick the best one in your area. Ask questions like is everyone CPR certified, etc. Some daycares of camera in them so you can watch what they are doing. If I was you and had the options of having family watching my son he would have never went to daycare but it's only for 3.5 he's a day so not that bad since I switched him.
If you can afford to stay home, do it. You'll never regret it. If not I'd go with grandma.
I personally think the first year is really important for a really strong bond and baby's trust. If you can afford to wait until LO's first birthday to return to work, do it. At that point I think daycare becomes important for socializing and developing a strong immune system early on. My son started daycare 3 days a week at about 13 months and he loves it, but I couldn't do it any earlier. I know some women who have to have their babies in daycare really young and they actually leave work at lunch to go nurse their babes. I think it helps with maintaining that strong bond.
I have tried all 3.
1. I would say what is your relationship with your mom? I love my mom dearly and we have always had the most amazing of a relationship but once my daughter arrived everything changed. I was just the daughter and my mom thought because I had allowed her to babysit that it gave her rights to my daughter and she could raise her however she wanted. I knew that wasn't going to fly so I decided on a babysitter. My mother still says she has rights and demands to see my daughter whenever she wants. She also refuses to do the things I want done. She says she raised 2 children and doesn't need to be told how to raise a 3rd. She lets my daughter have pop, coffee, candy, peanut butter, fish and eggs before a year old. I never knew this side of my mom until my daughter was born.
2. The baby sitter is right up the road from my house. She is an older lady who reminds me in a way of my grandmother. I love this baby sitter to death. She has rules and has many many years of experience. My daughter loves going there and has been going since she was 6 months old. She is now 13 months. There are children of similar age to my daughter and I think that this is valuable to my daughter because she is learning to socialize and be a child. The sitter allows me to call whenever I want and check in I also have the option of stopping by on lunch to see my child. I only pay for the days my daughter attends and the baby sitter feeds breakfast, lunch and if I'm running late dinner plus all snacks in between without charging me extra. If I could go back, this baby sitter would have been my first choice over my mom.
3. I am working for a school and have the summer off so right now I am a stay at home mom. I find it hard to keep my daughter happy as she gets bored playing by herself or even with me. No amount of toys, play ground trips, dancing or silly games keeps her entertained all day so she visits the sitter once a week and it seems to make all the difference for her and myself. I am currently expecting in November and can honestly say that at 3 months old my second child will be going to the sitter with my first. I hope this helps.
I'm lucky to work from home so I will be keeping my baby!
But if I did have to go back to work I would def. have them stay with grandparents
My husband and I are thinking about when I am able to start really working out hard core again that my MIL will keep the baby. The gym we go to does have a little daycare but I honestly don't feel like I would want to do that.
No one will treat your children as well as family. I think if u decide to go to work then grandmas the way to go. Just tell your husband that daycare is a great idea when your baby is older and can play and interact with other kids. I have my mom look after my dd and not only is it great to save on the cost of child care, it is so amazing to see the relationship they have now.
What do you do from home! :) I'm looking for something new to do at home. I work from home now I keep a couple of kids (I nanny) but after my child gets here i would love to do something else that involves just me and my child .
When my first was born, my husband and I both worked (I did long term sub jobs as I was still trying to find a teaching position). I had my Grandma watch my son and sometimes one of my husband's airmen who did babysitting for a lot of the squadron on her days off (and I trusted her completely). Now that we've moved to another state and have two little ones and a baby on the way, I'm staying at home for the time being. I just always am too nervous to put my babies in a daycare, but that's just me. If you could have your mom do it, that would be my first choice. If you do go the daycare route, just do a lot of research and find one you trust completely. One plus side would be that your little one would probably be getting to socialize with other kids a lot more if he or she is in daycare (which I know wouldn't be as big of a deal when they're so young, but just something to think about down the road).
My personal opinion is that it's best for baby to have mom (and/or dad) as long as possible and after that a close relative. I'm not a fan of daycare for babies. If you can swing it, I would say stay home with baby. If it gets to where you can't afford to not work anymore, then I would have your mom watch her.
I know that there are circumstances where daycare is necessary so parents can work for their family to survive, and I have nothing against that at all!! But babies need Momma :)
Up until this month I was a teacher for 10 hours/week in the afternoons and my mom and sister watched my DD. But she mostly napped while she was at their houses and didn't spend much time apart from me. Now that baby #2 is coming, I quit teaching and I'm going to stay home full time. We live in San Diego and DH is still in school so he only makes about $25k/year... But we make it work and we live comfortably!
I think the benefits that baby would have with you staying home with him/her far outweigh the monetary benefits of you going back to work. Nothing and no one can replace a baby's mom :)
I stayed home for 4 months, had a nanny until my DD turned 1, and then went to a home daycare and has been there since. She goes 4 days a week and my mom watches her on Fridays.
This baby I will take 3 months off and she will go right to the home daycare. She (and my other DD) will go 3 days a week. In addition to Fridays, my mom will also take them on Wednesdays.
I love the interaction they will get from the home daycare, my DD loves her "best friends" and is always excited to go. I also like how she gets the one-on-one time with my Mom so they can go on lots of outings and stuff.
If staying home with baby is an option I would go with that.
I decided to do home daycare myself, that way I can stay home with my kids and get paid watching other kids at the same time. It works out great as my boys love to see their friends, it keeps them busy and happy. But honestly as a daycare provider, I think 3 months is very young. I personally would feel more comfortable with a friend or family member taking care of baby until at least 6 months.
Id let my mom watch my little one if that was an option! Daycare is good for kids especially when they get older to socialize with other kids but at the newborn stage id keep little one home as long as possible!
My first choice stay home, raise your child instead of someone else with possible different values than you. Second choice I would trust family over strangers to watch my child. I personally quit my job and had little part time jobs here and there for awhile. Now I just stay home and focus on my children.
In all honesty I would but them in some sort of Childcare environment even if it's only a few days a week. They need the interaction with other kids and when you put them after the age of 12-18 months they are very scared (which puts fear in you) because all they've known is you and grandma. I'll also be honest and say grandma is probably not going to get the baby on any sort of routine which a daycare normally will. Believe me the schedule comes in handy. Plus lots of times when they stay home with relatives they become really clingy since most family is not going to let the baby cry for any reason.
Let me just say, from experience, regardless of their age, it is never easy to leave your child in someone else's care for the first time. I'm sure you will probably be more comfortable leaving the baby with your mom, though. Having to go to work all day without your baby, is really tough---at first. But, it gets easier and you may actually be one of those (like myself) who enjoys your time away. Either way you choose, you will have some guilt, but that is all part of being a mom. go with your gut instinct on this one.
