2010 Christmas Appeal: Working family needs a hand
Monthly bills leave little money for extras
FREER - This dry, dusty land is not what Jewel and her family are accustomed to, but it seemed like a good place for a new start closer to relatives and friends.
California had been so expensive. But for so long it was home.
"One time when it was Christmas we went to the top of the mountain to see snow," Jewel, 7, said. "Does it snow here?"
Her older brothers and sisters giggle a little because they believe it doesn't even rain in this small town.
While the climate has changed, the circumstances and challenges of everyday life have not.
Yes, the cost of living is less, but finding a job has been tough. The bills are just as quick to arrive as ever.
And presents are as likely as a White Christmas this year.
The children represent thousands who will be helped by the Caller-Times Children's Christmas Appeal. The names of the families profiled have been changed to protect their privacy. All money donated to the drive benefits the children; all overhead costs are borne by the Caller-Times and participating agencies.
The children's parents, Jenny and Billy, work to make the $900 a month she makes at a local store stretch to cover the living expenses, but with the bills totaling more than $1,100 including rent and utilities, it's tough to make ends meet.
They receive $650 a month in food stamps.
Joe, 18, a senior in high school, recently found part-time work. He is considering where he might like to go to college. Bob, 16, is not far behind him. He'd like to study nursing and eventually work for the U.S. Border Patrol. Hannah, 14, wants to be a professional photographer when she grows up. Her brothers joke that she wouldn't make any money because she only takes pictures of herself.
Lee, 10, knows just what he needs for Christmas.
"I need new underwear," he shouts, pointing an accusing finger at his older sister. "Because she shrunk them all."
Hannah, who helps out by washing clothes, apparently left them in the dryer too long.
The children also could use heavier coats. Right now they make do with sweaters. Bob would like a red blanket that he doesn't have to share with Lee on the foldout couch where they sleep. Lee could use a few pairs of jeans because he is growing and Jewel has outgrown her warm pajamas.
But if there were a chance for something special, Lee would like a remote control helicopter. Hannah would like a camera. Joe has been trying to save for his Christmas wish — a set of artist's markers. Bob would like an MP3 player.
Jewel, who is the jokester of the family, says her wish is a Cymbal-playing, alarm clock-radio monkey.
Lee backed up his sister's conviction that such a clock does exist. And it's cool. Or annoying — depending on who you ask.

Getting Started
Social Security Number
Foreign nationals are required to have a social security number and card in order to begin work at North Carolina A&T State University in J-1 status. The social security number is an identification number that will not only be required by the University, but you may also be required to provide it at the time you open a bank account, file tax forms, rent an apartment, open utility accounts, etc. You must have employment eligibility, employment authorization, and proof of employment to request a social security card and number from the United States Social Security Administration. The ISSO will prepare the letter verifying this information on your behalf and you will be required to present yourself, the letter, and all other required documents to the Social Security Administration Office located at 6005 Landmark Center Boulevard, Greensboro, North Carolina, 27407. Applications and instructions are available in the ISSO, Room 208 Murphy Hall. You may also obtain directions and additional information at http://www.ssa.gov/online/ss-5.html.
To apply for a Social Security number and card, you need to complete Form SS-5 and show at least two documents as evidence of your age, identity, and lawful alien status (ex: visa, passport, DS-2019, I-94, I-20, etc.) Dependents and those not eligible to obtain a Social Security Number and Card should apply for the Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) that can be obtained at the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). The ITIN is used for tax purposes and can serve as an additional documentation when obtaining the driver's license. Visit the IRS web page for additional information and application procedures. http://www.irs.gov/individuals/article/0,,id=96287,00.html.
J-2 dependents in legal status may qualify for the social security card and number; however, they must be approved for work authorization first. Please visit the ISSO to obtain information and discuss requirements for submitting the petition to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services office.

This session will also include a discussion of tax liabilities while in the United States. Information regarding taxes is also found on the Internal Revenue Service website: http://www.ustreas.gov. Your tax status and the taxes you are required to pay will depend upon your visa status and your country of citizenship.

David Cheesewright, who started his career as a gym teacher, faces a big challenge as the newest chief executive of Wal-Mart Stores Inc.'s international division: Get the retailer's overseas operations back in shape.
Following years of double-digit sales growth, sales at its 6,100 international stores rose 1.3% in the year ended Jan. 31 as the company struggled to turn around what was once its fastest-growing division.
Wal-Mart's international business, which brought in $137 billion in revenue last year and makes up 29% of the retailer's sales, has struggled over the past few years as consumers in key international markets like Mexico and China have pulled back spending and are making fewer visits to its stores.
Meanwhile, the company faces regulatory hurdles in China and has had to shelve plans to open retail stores in India, a setback for the retailer after it spent years trying to gain traction in one of Asia's largest but most heavily regulated markets.
In a recent interview at the company's Bentonville, Ark. headquarters, Mr. Cheesewright, a 52-year-old native of the U.K., outlined how he plans to jump start the flagging international business and how e-commerce will help the company expand into countries where it might never build physical stores. Edited excerpts:
WSJ: You took over as Wal-Mart's head of international operations in February, overseeing nearly a million employees in 26 different countries. What was the first charge Wal-Mart's CEO Doug McMillon gave you when you took the job?
Mr. Cheesewright: Look, it's the first charge I gave myself. With 80% of retail growth that is going to happen over the next 10 years coming from outside of the U.S., I have to be the growth engine for our business. We are disappointed with the growth levels from last year, so that's going to have to be the priority.
WSJ: How exactly do you plan to do that?
Mr. Cheesewright: I have four specific initiatives. First, create a platform for sustainable growth in China because based on where growth is coming from, if you get it right there, life becomes a lot easier.
Second, turn around our operations in Brazil. We've talked about that for a while but I think we've got some high caliber people there and we're encouraged by recent results there.
Third, we have to rejuvenate Mexico. Some of it has to do with cyclical economic issues, but some of it is self-imposed [as the company tries to improve the quality and price gap versus competitors]. I don't think we'll get back to the high growth levels from years past, but there's a lot we can do to help them become a more mature business.
And fourth, we have to drive e-commerce.
WSJ: Are there common challenges that you are seeing around the world?
Mr. Cheesewright: There are two key trends we see in every country. First, a rapidly changing customer that is rapidly moving online. Second, declining growth rates.
Looking at any metric, whether it's gross domestic product or retail sales growth, virtually everywhere we are seeing a slowdown. The nice thing about international is that there are still markets with pretty good growth rates, including Brazil, China and Mexico.
If you look at the countries we currently operate in and look forward to the next 10 years, we have access to more than 50% of the growth that's going to occur on the planet. That's pretty good coverage versus our competitors and the biggest chunk of that will be outside the U.S.

Pretty hard, actually. Books take a lot longer to develop, write, and publish than comics, so it would be difficult for the two to stay current with each other on an ongoing basis. It's the same reason the TV shows couldn't pay much attention to the novels, because they came out so much faster and they couldn't wait around to see what happened in the books -- and the same reason that despite their best efforts, a number of books ended up getting contradicted by new episodes before they even hit the shelves. Comics don't come out at quite the same pace as TV shows, but it's sufficiently faster than novels that the same coordination problems arise.
Also IDW is in California and Pocket is in New York, so they can't coordinate as closely as they could if they were in the same place (granted, less of an issue in the age of e-mail and teleconferencing, but apparently still a factor).
Fair enough - the practicalities of comics and novels moving at different speeds had not occurred to me.

I noticed that you're using the envelope the enclose the figure. cool...who's your instructor?
I would suggest to make sure your negative shapes are correct.
September 22nd, 2008 #4
nice pics - you're on the right track! Just a few things: try keeping a lighter hand you seem to have some dark lines which can make the drawing harder to manipulate its errors. Try checking your proportions a little more (they're good but can be better). Also like the above comment, check your negative shapes - this will help make everything more accurate. Great job thus far! I'd love to see more.
September 23rd, 2008 #5
Thank you all, for the comments and critiques.
Dizon, my instructor is a local artist (Southern California) named Cynthia Grilli. She is very concerned with teaching us to build a quick and solid foundation with an envelope and block in so that we can then take the drawing to a more complete level without concerning ourselves as much with proportion and gesture down the line. Thanks for the tip on the negative shapes - I do need to watch those more closely!
Oruhito - Yes, I must draw lighter. I think I continue to go over the same lines too much. Thanks for the other tips too. I must remind myself to step back from the easel and check my work just as much as I am actually drawing.

1864 Liberty Quarter Eagle, AU581864 $2 1/2 AU58 NGC. The Philadelphia Mint coined 2,824 business strike quarter eagles and another 50 proofs in 1864. Eastern coinage of gold and silver coins was extremely limited during the second half of the Civil War, while larger quantities were struck in California, being little affected by the conflict.
Condition Census Specimen
Condition Census Specimen
NGC and PCGS have certified 17 examples of this issue, including four AU58 submissions and three finer coins. The finer coins include two certified as MS61 and one amazing MS67. In our own sales since 1993, nine appearances of an 1864 quarter eagle include just six different coins. The current offering is the third appearance of this specimen in our sales. Less than two dozen 1864 quarter eagles are known in all grades.
An undeniable Condition Census specimen, the present near-Mint survivor exhibits bold prooflike tendencies in the fields despite scattered abrasions. As befits a low mintage issue from the Philadelphia Mint, the devices are powerfully impressed and free of noticeable striking softness. Both sides display a bright, yellow-gold appearance, but deeper green-gold accents are noted at certain angles.

Social Security Changes for 2015
Monthly Social Security and Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits for nearly 64 million Americans will increase 1.7 percent in 2015. The 1.7 percent cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) will begin with benefits that more than 58 million Social Security beneficiaries receive in January 2015. Increased payments to more than 8 million SSI beneficiaries will begin on December 31, 2014.
Some other changes that take effect in January of each year are based on the increase in average wages. Based on that increase, the maximum amount of earnings subject to the Social Security tax (taxable maximum) will increase to $118,500 from $117,000. Of the estimated 168 million workers who will pay Social Security taxes in 2015, about 10 million will pay higher taxes because of the increase in the taxable maximum.
The estimated average monthly Social Security payments and SSI payments are:
Estimated Average Monthly Social Security Benefits Payable in January 2015:
All Retired Workers
All Disabled Workers
SSI Federal Payment Standard:
$ 733/mo.
The earnings limit for workers who are younger than "full" retirement age (age 66 for people born in 1943 through 1954) will be $15,720. (We deduct $1 from benefits for each $2 earned over $15,720.) The earnings limit for people turning 66 in 2015 will be $41,880. (We deduct $1 from benefits for each $3 earned over $41,880 until the month the worker turns age 66.) There is no limit on earnings for workers who are "full" retirement age or older for the entire year. Learn more by reading, How Work Affects Your Benefits.
The amount of earnings needed for one credit of Social Security coverage has gone up as well, but all workers can still earn up to four credits in a year. In 2015, a worker earns a credit after earning $1,220. In 2014, one credit of coverage was $1,200. It takes forty credits to be fully insured for retirement benefits.
If you worked this year and your latest annual earnings turns out to be one of your highest, we refigure your benefit and pay you any increase due. This is an automatic process – so there is no need to bring your W-2 form or tax return to your Social Security office. For example, in December 2014, you should get an increase for your 2013 earnings if those earnings raised your benefit. The increase would be retroactive to January 2014.
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services announced the standard Medicare Part B monthly premium remain unchanged at $104.90 for 2015. Further information about Medicare changes for 2015 is available at www.medicare.gov.

Medicare: General Enrollment And General Information
Need Medicare Part B? If you're eligible, the time to sign up is near. The general enrollment period for Medicare Part B runs from January 1 through March 31. Before you make a decision about general enrollment, let us fill you in on some general information.
There are four parts to Medicare: Parts A, B, C and D. Part A helps pay for inpatient hospital care, skilled nursing care, hospice care, and other services. Part B helps pay for doctors' fees, outpatient hospital visits, and other medical services and supplies not covered by Part A. Part C allows you to choose to receive all of your health care services through a provider organization. These plans, known as Medicare Advantage Plans, may help lower your costs of receiving medical services, or you may get extra benefits for an additional monthly fee. You must have both Parts A and B to enroll in Part C. And Part D is the Medicare Prescription Drug Program.
Most people first become eligible for Medicare at age 65, and there is a monthly premium for Medicare Part B. In 2015, the standard premium is $104.90. Some high-income individuals pay more than the standard premium. Your Part B premium also can be higher if you do not enroll during your initial enrollment period, or when you first become eligible.
There are exceptions to this rule. For example, you can delay your Medicare Part B enrollment without having to pay higher premiums if you are covered under a group health plan based on your own current employment or your spouse's current employment. If this situation applies to you, then you have a "special enrollment period", in which you can sign up for Medicare Part B without paying higher premiums:
If you are disabled and working (or you have coverage from a working family member), the same rules apply.
Note: Special enrollment period rules do not apply while a person is in their initial enrollment period. If you are eligible at age 65, your initial enrollment period begins three months before your 65th birthday, includes the month you turn age 65 and ends three months after that birthday.
If a person is already receiving Social Security retirement benefits they will be automatically enrolled in Medicare Part B when they become eligible at age 65.
If you don't enroll in Medicare Part B when you first become eligible to apply and you aren't eligible for a special enrollment period, you'll have to wait until the general enrollment period, which is January 1 through March 31 of each year. At that time, you may have to pay a higher Medicare Part B premium.
For more information about Medicare Parts A, B, C, and D, visit the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) website at www.mediare.gov. Or read our publication on Medicare at www.socialsecurity.gov/pubs/10043.html.
Depending on income and resources, you may be eligible for Extra Help With Medicare Prescription Drug Plan Costs. More information about the Extra Help is available at www.socialsecurity.gov/prescriptionhelp .
Find Links to Norway in New Books at the Library
Three new reference books may yield information about your Norwegian relatives. The Bertha Bartlett Public Library received the bilingual books as a gift from the Kong Sverre Sons of Norway Lodge in Story City.
The set is titled "Norwegians in American, their History and Record: A translated version of the 1907 and 1913 Nordmaendene I Amerika, dere Historie og Record" written by Martin Ulvestad. Volumes 1, 2 and 3 were given.
Local residents Bob and Carolyn Ahlstrom have found family references in each of the three volumes. Carolyn said, "We hope others will open the books and learn more about Norwegian history in our area."
The books were transcribed from Gothic script, translated into English and edited. Deb Nelson Gourley of Waukon indexed the three books and copyrighted them in 2010. Astri My Astri Printing publishes them. The translation has been published with the financial support of Norwegian Literature Abroad, Fiction and Non-fiction.
The reference books can help connect Norwegian descendents with ancestors and their birthplaces in Norway. The usable structure is sorted by names, places and occupations; indexes cross-reference the three books.
Ulvestad compiled the Norwegian-American pioneer stories after sending out 163,000 small books and pamphlets plus 450,000 circulars and forms to early immigrants. In addition the author visited people in 882 places.
Information came from people in 41 states and 500 counties in the U.S. and six Canadian provinces. Ulvestad hoped the books would help reconnect those who had left Norway between 1825 and 1907 with those who remained in Norway. The people who responded told of their part in American wars, the American Civil War, Andersonville Prison and encounters with Indians. They reported their occupations and involvement in politics, church societies and their communities. The books provide information on more than 25,000 pioneers, sorted by 1,700 areas from which they emigrated and include maps.
Ulvestad stated, "I hope this compilation will help many a dear son or brother, relative or friend that one has lost track of to be found again, that it will build a bridge."
He said reporting the personal information and records would strengthen the Norwegian-American immigrant history. He hoped his work would benefit historians and genealogists.
Members of Kong Sverre Lodge say, "Come, use the three new reference books while you are at the Bertha Bartlett Public Library to learn more about Norwegian pioneers in America."
The books are housed with the Sons of Norway collection, near the genealogy reference section and the Circulation Desk inside the Bertha Bartlett Public Library. In addition to the three reference books, a second copy of "The Norwegian Paperclip and Other Stories as told by Olav Richard Crone-Aamot, a member of the Norwegian Underground During the German Occupation April 9, 1940—June 7, 1945" was also donated and will be housed in the Sons of Norway collection.

To librarians, it's a too familiar scenario. A patron returns a book that left the building in good condition but now is damp, moldy, torn, marked up or otherwise damaged. A disappointment to both librarian and patron who is now responsible for the book's repair or replacement. Too bad. With proper care, books last a long time so multiple patrons may enjoy them. Without it, they deteriorate quickly and become an unwelcome donation to the Friends of the Library sale.
Damage to books usually results from careless handling or improper storage so here are some suggestions for avoiding the most common book disasters. Some seem too obvious to need stating, but we've seen too many books damaged by carelessness or ignorance that spreading the word seems worth doing.
Use bookmarks. Never dog-ear a library book to mark your place. Paper clips, rubber bands, locks of hair, rubber bands, string, dental floss, pencils, etc. aren't bookmarks and shouldn't be used as such. Flat paper bookmarks really are best. Archival paper is nice, but if you remember to take the marker out of the book when you decide to quit reading, ordinary paper markers are fine. Pieces of paper, left in a book for 20 years, leave a brown stain so eschew the common practice of leaving bookmarks, relevant newspaper articles, scraps of paper, etc. in the book. Avoid markers, which damage the pages. Leave your grandmother's silver Tiffany marker on display, not in the book. Oh, and, as your fourth-grade teacher mentioned, don't leave the book open and flat to save your place.
Don't mark up library books. Any marks in or on books lessen their value. That includes coffee stains, rings left by glasses, your name and address, grandmotherly admonitions, underlining, highlighting (yellow highlighters ought always to be kept at least 10 yards away from valuable books), and, yes, even the cleverest of bookplates. Unless, of course, the bookplate or signature lends value.
The dust jackets are there to protect the book. But even a sturdy dust jacket can't save a book from dogs and babies - keep your library books out of reach.
Remove books carefully from the shelf. Ever noticed those tiny tears at the top of the spine of many books? They're a common fault and result from removing the book from the shelf by pulling at the top of the spine (the head cap). Better reach in from the top and slide the book out or push the books on either side in and grasp the spine. Dust with a feather duster (away from the spine) or a hand vac set at a very low power.
Store books carefully. The rules are simple but finding the space and creating the correct environment are often inconvenient ---- the result being books "temporarily" stored in bad places that turn out to be book homes for a generation or more.
At the top of the list of things to be avoided are heat, dampness, UV rays, and extreme changes in temperature and humidity. According to the AIC, "a cool, dry, and stable environment" is best for book rooms. The best shelving protects books from dust and dirt (glass doors are nice) and allows books to be shelved upright with space both in back and front of the books. Make sure your hands are clean. And please, please, please do not carry books in the same bag as any type of liquid!
Oh, and enjoy the library's books. Love them. Talk with them occasionally. Take them home, ruffle through the pages and spend some quality time with them. I'm not sure why it helps, but I know they hate being neglected.
Avoiding Holiday Headaches: Shopping Tips
'Tis the season to be jolly, but it's also the season to be cautious about spending your hard-earned money! With some effort, you'll find great shopping deals. But it also takes effort to make sure you know exactly what you're buying, whether the deal you found is truly a good one, and the rules for returns.
Before you buy, make sure it's a good product at a good price from a good seller. Is it a quality product or something that's simply cheap? Cheaper isn't always a better bargain! What do you know about the retailer - is this a store or website you trust? They're there to make the sale, but are they also willing to provide service? Before you buy, check around and make sure it's really a good product and a good deal.
Take your ads with you. If you're headed to a store, take the store's ad with you. Make sure the product and price match the ad.
Always keep receipts and paperwork! Most stores will not make refunds without a receipt, and many won't exchange without a proof of purchase. If you really think you need a service contract and end up paying for one, be sure to save the paperwork. (Find out more about service contracts at www.FTC.gov.)
Returns and layaways: Make sure you know a store's policy on returns or layaways before you make a purchase. Remember, there is no state law that requires stores to give a refund, exchange, or credit for merchandise that is returned or taken off layaway (unless the store advertises that it accepts such returns, or unless an article is defective or was misrepresented.) Also keep in mind that Iowa's three-day-right-to-cancel law only applies to door-to-door sales, or sales made away from a seller's usual place of business. In short, most refund policies are up to individual retailers.
Buying online: Be sure to shop with reputable companies. Make sure the seller lists an address or toll-free number, just in case you have a problem. Be sure purchases are refundable in case you are not satisfied. Get all details on shipping and handling fees, refund and return policies, and complaint procedures. Print out and keep records of your purchase. Use only "secure" websites (secure websites utilize an "https://" prefix for their website address, with the "s" signifying that it's secure). Pay by credit card - avoid using a debit card or check, so you can dispute the bill and withhold payment if necessary. Be wary of online classified ads and auctions, and avoid providing financial information directly to classified ad sellers.
Mail orders: If you order gifts by mail, by telephone or through a website, you have certain protections. Federal law requires the seller to ship your purchase within 30 days, unless the offer or ad specifies a later date. If there is a delay, the seller must notify you, allow you a chance to cancel your order, and send a full refund if you choose to cancel. Don't send cash or use your debit card - a credit card gives you the most safeguards.
Gift certificates and gift cards: If you're thinking of buying a gift certificate or gift card, check the retailer's policy. Find out if the retailer will give a credit or cash return if the purchase price is less than the value of the gift certificate, and any other terms the store places on the certificates. Money on a gift card cannot expire for at least five years from the date of purchase, or from the last date you loaded any additional funds onto the card. Retailers can charge inactivity fees only after a card has been inactive for at least one year, and they can charge you only once per month. The card's expiration date must be clearly disclosed on the card, and fees must be clearly disclosed on the card or its packaging.

My DD is 5 months old and has not really had any solids, apart from a try of avocado to see if she was ready, she was not! Over here the health visitors say we have to start solids no later than 6 months. DH has celiacs disease so I informed with the UK Celiac society what was the best age to introduce gluten, they said before 6 months when the baby is still getting breast milk. Two other doctors have since told me the same. I am currently EPing and will be doing so until DD is 6 months so I do need to start gluten before then but in what form? I can't very well give her a slice of toast
At the local supermarket there are various cereal powders and cookie powders containing gluten and there are of course shop bought baby puree's containing gluten but I want to make my own puree's and I don't want her to get accustomed to the shop bought texture. I want to start with proper solids at 6 months so i'm thinking some sort of cereal powder to put in her bottle would be good.
Does any one have an idea on what is best?
"My DD is 5 months old and has not really had any solids, apart from a try of avocado to see if she was ready, she was not!"
Part of the challenge of introducing solids, is that it tends to go a lot better when the child is interested/curious to try foods.
"Over here the health visitors say we have to start solids no later than 6 months."
In the US, they also recommend you start solids around 6 months, but I've never heard anyone say you HAD to do it or else...
"DH has celiacs disease so I informed with the UK Celiac society what was the best age to introduce gluten, they said before 6 months when the baby is still getting breast milk."
That does seem to be the current consensus: "Celiac disease is a common multisystemic disorder...prevention strategies, including encouragement of breastfeeding and introduction of small amounts of gluten whereas still on breastfeeding at fourth to sixth month of age, become more important than before." (an excerpt from an article on PubMed).
"I am currently EPing and will be doing so until DD is 6 months so I do need to start gluten before then but in what form?"
Probably some sort of cereal (flake). Don't know what kinds/brands you have available since we're in different countries.
At the local supermarket there are various cereal powders
That's probably where you'll need to start if DD isn't eating solids yet.
"I want to make my own puree's"
Good idea. It's pretty easy, and a lot cheaper. You'll have a lot more control over the ingredients, and they taste way better!
"Does any one have an idea on what is best?"
It totally depends on what is available in your area. I'm guessing, taste-wise, they're all about the same, but the quality of ingredients, no doubt varies widely.
Good luck! Hope the initial trial goes well. Just for the record, I discovered that my child was sensitive to wheat when we started solids, so I did not give him anything containing wheat again until he was 2, and then the problem was gone, but I don't have a family history of celiac disease.
Why are they saying you HAVE to start solids before 6 months!?! My friend has Celiac and her little boy is not yet a year and she hasn't given him any gluten... we don't have celiac but DD is still completely grain free at 12.5 months.

What do you mean by they said you have to start solids by 6 months? I have always heard that 6 months was the earliest you should start introducing solids, but not every baby is ready at 6 months.
Well the guidelines here are that formula babies start around 4 months and BF babies around 6 months. The last time I had an appointment was around 5 months, I said I hadn't started purees yet because she has zero interest in food, she said that was fine but I MUST start at 6 months. My DD will be on formula at 6 months (I can't EP any more) so maybe it's different than an EBF baby? I have no idea why they would force solids on an EBF baby!
Re gluten, this is the advice i have had from two doctors, the books from the health clinic and the UK Celiac society. I do really trust the Celiac society and think if anyone should know it it should be them! I have been giving DD 1 spoon of cereal in her bottle at night since she was about 5 months...
Now I think she may be ready to try some purees in a few weeks. When she sees me coming with the spoon with her vit D (mandatory for babies who get less than 500ml formula over here) she opens her mouth wide up, it's so funny!
For DS, it was great because he was introduced to a wide variety of foods early, and now he'll eat pretty much anything we give him. The downside - it's messy

Fall in love with life
My friends would describe me as generally happy and upbeat. Always making other people laugh. I can be serious when needed, and like having great conversations. I love learning new things about people, cultures, the world. In a potential I like someone who has a great smile, can be open and honest, and who loves to share things. I need a girl who also likes to work out and take care of herself. A person who can fit in with my family is also a big deal as my family is a huge part of my life. I do have a son so I like to take things slow. Any questions, I am open. Just ask.

The music I normally am caught listening to consists rap, rock, hip hop, R&B, alternative, some dance/techno. Not too much in to country, however, I have heard some songs I do like. As far as TV shows go Criminal Minds is at the top of my list.
In my free time I love to hang with good people, laughing is a must, read, watch a good movie, hang with my son, and joke.
The last thing I read was this book called the Ouroborous Society. It's about finding the love of your life through many lifetimes. (reincarnation) or cycles if you will. It is pretty fascinating although it is just a book for fun.

Lunch Bunch: Carino's an embrace of fresh, not-so-fast Italian
- Rating: 4 forks (out of 5)
- Where: 4330 Kell Blvd.
- Hours: 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sunday to Thursday; 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Friday and Saturday
- Prices: $6.99 to $8.99 for lunch; about $9 to $19 for dinner (most dishes are $12.99 to $15.99 at dinnertime)
- Information: 691-8900
As much as I love me some green bean casserole, I also love me some green beans of the noncanned foods variety — the fresh kind from the garden that beckons with that rich green color rather than the pale color from the canned version, as if the life has been sucked right out of those poor green beans.
And this is the thing Johnny Carino's does right. The eatery embraces fresh vegetables and other quality ingredients and seems to love a good veggie as much as I do.
Such was the case Monday when the Lunch Buddy and I stopped by Johnny Carino's for a quick bite, though if you're planning on going there, plan to spend a little more time than usual. This isn't the stop-in-and-go kind of place. Lunch Buddy barely made it back in time for her 1 p.m. meeting, even though we arrived at the Italian country eatery about 11:45 a.m.
It wasn't long before our friendly waitress was at our table taking our drink orders and was back with one of my favorite parts of any Johnny Carino's meal — those two little oblong-shaped herbed loaves that are accompanied by a side of roasted garlic olive oil for dipping. I could make a meal out of those lovely little herbed breads.
But alas, I decided to actually order a meal and went with a low-fat option, the Lemon Rosemary Chicken ($8.99 on the lunch menu; $13.99 on the dinner menu), instead of my usual, the Grilled Chicken Bowtie Festival (my favorite because it comes with crumbled bacon). The Lunch Buddy dedicated herself to the Spicy Romano Bowtie Pasta ($8.99 on the lunch menu).
The Lemon Rosemary Chicken was, to use a technical term, yummy. It was well flavored, even a little sweet — I think I tasted some balsamic vinegar in there — and the chicken breast was very juicy. I didn't taste much of the tang of the lemon, however. I did wonder if this was truly a low-fat option because it was so tasty (and may have been brushed with a little too much olive oil). It came with a side of angel hair pasta mixed in with tomatoes and greens, and another side of fresh zucchini and yellow squash. The waitress originally brought me the wrong Lemon Rosemary Chicken dish with a side of green beans, and I was sad to see it go. The fresh green beans looked delicious.
The Lunch Buddy's Spicy Romano Chicken includes bow-tie pasta and chicken flavored with cayenne pepper, a Romano cream sauce, mushrooms, artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes and scallions. She said she was impressed with the freshness of the ingredients, which really showed when it came to her Caesar salad. The salad was dressed perfectly — just enough dressing and not slathered with it.
Since Lunch Buddy had to get back to work, I ordered a to-go dish from the $2 mini dessert menu. I picked the tiramisu. It was creamy and sweet and just delightful with its espresso-soaked ladyfinger cookies and custard. It was the perfect end to a tasty meal.
By the way, if you've never tried the Italian nachos, they're a twist on traditional nachos, spicing it up with such ingredients as black olives and pepperoncinis (good stuff), and you can't go wrong with the 16-layer lasagna — yep, a 16-layer lasagna, which is one of the top menu items.
Johnny Carino's offers tasty Italian food with fresh vegetables and herbs. The only downside is the price-point. An $8.99 lunch plus the drink will put you over the $10 mark (though other choices on the lunch menu will ring in at about $2 less). And while the service time was decent, it might not be fast enough for all the Frantic Frans out there on the standard 1-hour lunch break.
It's 4 forks out of a perfect 5 for Johnny Carino's.

Coral Woven Diamond Bath Mat 1 1
I'm back to buy more of them Lovely deep coral color goes with my master bedroom. First, I put it just inside the door, but changed my mind and put it on the slipper chair where I sit to dress after showering. Now, I'm ordering more, so I can wash them frequently. So pretty. Nicely made. Not sure how it launders yet, but don't expect to be disappointed. March 6, 2015

Originally written on It's Always Sunny in Detroit | Last updated 11/9/12
Lions receiver Calvin Johnson was the recipient of a nasty hit from Vikings linebacker Chad Greenway in week four. He hadn't been lighting the world on first in the first three weeks of the season and despite being third in the NFL in receiving yards, he hasn't been putting up Megatron-like numbers. He has openly battled bumps and bruises to his knees, and wrist and has sat out practices and team workouts. Word also came out Thursday that Johnson is still suffering from nerve damage from that Greenway hit. Calvin said that it's had a lingering effect and has caused discomfort in gripping the football. He also mentioned the word concussion. If you remember, the Lions training staff ran very minimal concussion tests before letting Johnson return to the field. For the second time since week four, Lions head coach Jim Schwartz has insisted that Calvin was not concussed. It's an interesting dynamic — Calvin saying he suffered a concussion and Schwartz touting the company line that he didn't. WXYZ

The biggest Pacific blue fin tuna ever caught in Southern California waters by commercial fishermen have been sold for more than $2 million at auction in Tokyo.
In the past 10 days, 233 of the giant tuna weighing 300 to 625 pounds each have been taken off Santa Rosa Island and flown to Japan, where premium prices are paid by the sushi and sashimi trade.
Auctioned off individually, the fish brought $16 to $32 a pound, or an average of $24 a pound for the total catch of 83,880 pounds.
"These are a high-class fish bought at the Tsukiji fish market in Tokyo by the most expensive, most exclusive restaurants in Japan. This prize tuna will cost the diner about $10 a bite, which translates into more than $125 a pound," said Paul Flagg, president of Great Circle Fisheries, which handled the bulk of the sale.
