Ya know, I'm vain too. But I love growing babies, birthing babies, nursing babies so much. I love watching my children with their new sibling. I love watching them all grow together, homeschooling them, all of it....well no, but most of it. My husband keeps promising me new boobs. He says, "Next year's your year, hon." Then I'm either pregnant or nursing. Otherwise, I think my body's negotiated these births rather well. I have a few stretch marks, but they're on my hips, ew, so I don't know that I can truly say they're from pregnancy, or me just eating too much ice cream. My belly and breasts have come through without any, really.
And um, my oldest and dearest friend, who only has two kids, and is 37, has been talking about vaginal rejuvenation surgery. Yeah. I think she's nuts, but her vanity is irrefutable and she has no problems copping to it either.
Oh I agree! Birthing them is the BEST part for me, in my opinion. Even when I had my first one at 17, I was like "I am so ready to do this again when I can afford it!" lol I mean, I didn't like how my body looked afterwards, but for the experience of everything leading up to the birth and then the birth process, I love it.
PS ( If I could EVER afford it, I'd have my breasts lifted, and get a tuck from the extra skin on my belly after I hit a goal weight) But this is a total YEAH RIGHT! for me, cuz I'm broke as hell. lol
LOL when I was in labor with my first I told my husband we were adopting all our next children. As I pulled her out of the water I said "We are SO doing this again!" I'm looking forward to this birth. : )
I love Edward and we love our Libby (8/07) and 'Nana' (05/09 ) and Eowyn (11/11) We are having a blast and .
Great! I've not much of an appetite today, but am keeping back plenty of water, and my doctor said as long as I'm hydrated and eating healthy when I can to not worry about it if I don't gain (I'm still -2lbs for this pregnancy). I plan to buy a juicer tomorrow since I keep liquids down easier, so that the bulk of my nutrition can be gotten in an easier form for me and juice assimilates quickly. That way I can focus food on what I like, and what I feel like eating instead of trying to eat any crap I can just to get some calories in me. I'm hoping the new outlook means I can stop taking my nausea medicine as well, since it makes me so tired that I wind up sleeping TOO much the night/next afternoon after I take some, and then unable to sleep for 24 or so hours afterwards. Not good when you have kids to keep up with and take care of. They get tired grumpy mama!
I'm trying to get some walking in each day, whether it's around my neighborhood or a store or wherever. My SPD is a LOT better when I can manage this. I still get pain, but it just isn't AS bad. And I know from past experience it can help with the insomnia as well. It also can't hurt to get in shape before the marathon of labor, right?
I'm getting really excited about the birth. We had our anatomy scan, verified placenta is in a good place for UCing, baby is healthy with no apparent need to be in a hospital, etc. I'm really excited to meet the baby! For a while I was unsure, as I knew DH planned on this being our last, and while I'd be fine with that, I wasn't interested in hearing that right now. Well I suggested a second middle name if baby is a boy- it's a name I REALLY want to use with a lot of personal meaning to me. His response was "We're going to have a gazillion kids anyway, chances are you'll get to use it on one of the next ones." :D That just made me much more excited about the entire thing, lol!
I'm rolling laughing reading this. lol That's how I was in the most painful parts of labor. But the intensity and the pushing and holding baby immediately afterwards, just....there's nothing like it.
No ma'am. I do think it's amazing for those that do.
I started cutting back on carbs, and all the sudden I'm not peeing a million times a day and I have more energy! I was really dragging, and I can feel a HUGE difference if I eat too many carbs or sugar for a meal. Everyone was telling me it was normal to be so tired, but I never was to that extent with my first two. I am so happy I figured it out. : )
I love Edward and we love our Libby (8/07) and 'Nana' (05/09 ) and Eowyn (11/11) We are having a blast and .
I was telling DH about all the craziness on the HB forum lately and said something about OB's being surgeons, and he was "wait, WHAT? Then why are they seeing normal pregnancies at all?" It's like he knew that, but didn't really ever think about it. I'm just working on him bit by bit, hopefully he'll come around soon. He is sooooo much less scared of birth then he was with our first, maybe someday he'll be gung-ho about UC too.
I love Edward and we love our Libby (8/07) and 'Nana' (05/09 ) and Eowyn (11/11) We are having a blast and .
I was looking at photos of an unassisted breech birth the other night and DH happened to see it and he was like "OMG! What the hell IS that?!" And then he saw what was going on in the picture and he was like turn it off! Turn it off! LMAO I looked at him and said "you watched both of your kids being born. What's wrong with this?" Well, it's just not normal! haha It was kinda funny, and I wanted to poke at him some more about it cuz I thought it was funny that he thought it odd a baby was coming out the opposite way that it usually does. lol
I totally sent my DH some blogs about breech births and he opened it up and said "what IS this?" He read them though. I hadn't realized that just touching the baby can cause a reflex and have them move their arms, I always thought the "hands off breech" rule was to avoid yanking.
I love Edward and we love our Libby (8/07) and 'Nana' (05/09 ) and Eowyn (11/11) We are having a blast and .
I still laugh to myself when I think of DH "What the HELL?.........." haha It's still a baby coming out of a woman, only the opposite way. "It's just not normal." lol
I'm a little worried about being hassled while getting a birth certificate, but I know where to get the paperwork and stuff.
We call our local vital statistics office, and they send the paperwork. We fill it out and the Dr gives us a letter certifying he saw the baby w/in 24 hrs for the nb screen...
I'm not having an UC, but homebirth with a midwife is illegal in GA, so you sort of have to pretend you had an UC when you get the birth certificate. I had to fill out some prenatal records (pretended I'd kept up with them all along) with dates, etc. Then I needed a letter with witness signatures stating they saw the baby around the time it was born. Used dh and my mom for that. Then, of course, was the actual state form they gave me to apply for the certificate. It was very simple, no one gave me any trouble or even asked any questions. Hth! :)
Amanda, mom to dsd (16), dd (11), dd (8), and ds (born 11/12/11).
We had an illegal CPM for my hb with ds so she could not fill out the birth certificate paperwork for us either. We just called vital records and the state of Maryland sent out a nurse to verify that ds was in fact a real baby and asked us a few questions involving my prenatal care, the pediatrician, etc.. We were simply careful to not mention our mw's name and listed dh as the birth attendant (which he was since we had our mw stay in the next room during the birth anyway). Honestly the most annoying part about the process was spelling ds' name. We gave him two middle names and the nurse was flustered the entire time saying that they would likely get it wrong. I have no idea why. But they got it right on the birth certificate and wrong on the SS card. Anyway, once you file for the birth certificate, they file for the SS card for you and that will come in the mail. Then you can order copies of the birth certificate online. It's not hard.
After doing some more research now that we're actually here in Illinois, I may get the birth I was hoping for! There is a "birth photographer" that used to be a midwife (but quit due to the hostile climate here) that is willing to be present at the birth in case anything happens! I need to meet her and see how I feel about her and the situation, but that would be ideal!
Mama to Avalon 1/07 , Austin 1/10 in between and Avery 12/11
Have you tried searching using the phrase "out-of-hospital birth"? It took some delving and finally I found that term on a midwife site. I added that plus the name of my county in google to find what I needed.
Kami, try starting a thread in the Finding Your Tribe area. I'm sure there are moms there who have done it before.
Amanda, mom to dsd (16), dd (11), dd (8), and ds (born 11/12/11).
Umm....Hi everyone! This is my first post in this DDC, but I'm a longtime-MDC-mama, pregnant with #5, due in Nov, and planning a UC :) I haven't been hanging out here for a long time, due to computer issues and other weirdness. When I first found out I was pregnant, I joined the DDC on DiaperSwappers--but they are so much more mainstream than I am, it's just not my style, LOL.
I planned a UC once before, with my 3rd baby, but panicked at 43 weeks with no support, no money, and LOTS of stress. That was a horrible hospital birth--natural, quick, but obscenely stressful. If I had known then that there was such a thing as birth assault, I would have pressed charges. But I digress. I'm very psyched to be planning a UC this time, and very much more zen about it!
Now to post an intro thread... :D
Freethinking Earth-mama of five.
Homebirth itself is never illegal, but the midwives that attend homebirths are often illegal. In many states CNM's can only attend homebirths if they are overseen by an MD of some sort and most MD's are not willing to do that. In other states CPM's cannot even be licensed to be overseen by an MD, so they are always illegal in those states. Not to mention DEM's and LM's. You can check out the status of mw's by state here: http://mana.org/statechart.html I just happen to be living in Maryland and Illinois while birthing my last two babies... bad luck!
But the good news is that we are hiring an illegal mw here (the birth photographer I mentioned above) and she is willing to give us the birth we're looking for... just checking FHT's once when she arrives and once when my water breaks. That's it! No other protocols! Yay!!!
Mama to Avalon 1/07 , Austin 1/10 in between and Avery 12/11
So when my mom was trying to scare me out of homebirth, she kept bringing up the dead baby card saying if the baby dies CPS will be called on me. Would this be true? Since UC isn't illegal, that shouldn't happen at all, right?
Honestly, it is possible, even if baby is perfectly fine. A friend of mine had her first two at home w/ MWs, #3 was a UC. The neighbor found out and called CPS, and she was on their radar for quite some time. She had a MW there with #4, just to be on the safe side (because of CPS, not because she thought UC was dangerous). We live in Texas, where there is very much a "you do what you want, I do what I want" attitude, but she still had issues. (I also have a friend who had CPS called at the hospital for refusing eye ointment!)
My thoughts are, if the baby dies, CPS is the least of my concerns.
Mom to DD (5/07), DS1 (02/10) and DS2 (11/11) !
If you search the UC forum you'll find many a post about CPS being called and what the parents had to deal with regarding home visits. There are also recommendations for how to handle CPS should they show up on your doorstep.

Recipe: Slow Cooker Oatmeal with Honey & Fruit
Breakfast Recipes from The Kitchn
There's nothing like waking up to a piping hot breakfast. A steamy, creamy bowl of oatmeal is the ultimate comfort food, and preparing it in the slow cooker is a great way to take care of your breakfast crew without having to wake up before everyone else. Just stir everything up in the slow cooker, set it on low, then sleep for a solid eight hours and wake up to your morning meal.
The Ultimate Guide to Oatmeal
Tips from The Kitchn
Oatmeal is healthy, inexpensive, and as versatile as it gets. It's a satisfying morning breakfast that's filling without being too heavy. We love oatmeal because you can make a large batch but personalize each bowl to your mood or what's in your pantry: brown sugar and cinnamon for a cold winter day, juicy stone fruit in the summer, or even cheese and a soft-poached egg for a savory twist.
Here's everything you need to know about oatmeal, from the different varieties to tips and techniques that will help you take your oatmeal game to a whole new level! Now you have no excuse not to bring oatmeal back to the breakfast table.
Recipe: Cumin-Roasted Carrots with Wild Rice and Chickpeas
Recipes from The Kitchn
When the calendar hits September 1st, fall comes full blast with seasonal recipes, warmed-up restaurant menus, and even those spiced coffee drinks. Pumpkin, sweet potato, and butternut squash feature big, but I always urge people to look towards the vegetables that can sometimes end up as second players in the show.
Carrots are delightful as a mealtime star and I have a favorite technique that makes these carrots perfectly tender without going too soft.
Recipe: Stuffed Eggplants with Herbed Bulgur
Recipes from The Kitchn
When the heat begins to break and you start spotting pomegranates at the market, you know that fall is creeping up, bring with it new school schedules, pumpkin patches, and apple picking. For some of us, this seasonal transition also represents the start of a brand new year.
With Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, around the corner and fall in the air, I bring you a crowd-pleasing vegetarian dish of eggplants stuffed with herbed bulgur, pomegranate seeds, and pine nuts.
Why Oatmeal Made in a Rice Cooker Is Awesome
Tips from The Kitchn
The rice cooker has always been one of my favorite appliances. We eat steamed rice at least once a week and usually make enough to have leftovers for fried rice. I'm perfectly capable of cooking rice on the stove, but my rice cooker has an easy-to-clean nonstick lining and can keep the rice warm for hours, making it something I can turn on right before I leave the house in the morning.
But to be honest, this appliance takes up a lot of space. So how can I justify the amount of cabinet space it takes up? Because in addition to making great rice, the rice cooker makes great oatmeal too!
Harold and Paul Make Polenta
Weekend Meditation
Last week, on the same day, I encountered two very different recipes for polenta. One had a practicality born of science, curiosity and efficiency. The other was much more rooted in time and tradition. One quick, the other slow. One required a modern appliance; the other, sourcing a special, stoneground organic polenta. The former I discovered, rather fittingly, while listening to a podcast and the later, equally fittingly, while sitting on a couch next to an open window while browsing through a book.
Why Day-Old Rice Makes the Best Fried Rice
Tips from The Kitchn
Fried rice is the ultimate easy one-pot meal: starch, veggies, and proteins all thrown together and cooked in a matter of mere minutes. It's economical and I love to watch the transformation of a handful of seemingly random leftovers or ingredients into something very satisfying.
Making fried rice isn't an exact science: you can throw in a lot of veggies or keep it to mostly rice instead. The most important thing that you need to keep in mind when making fried rice though? Start with cold, or even frozen, day-old rice. Here's why.
Recipe: Fall Harvest Freekeh Salad
Cookbook Recipes from The Kitchn
Say hello to your must-try fall lunch – Fall Harvest Freekeh Salad! If you're brand new to the world of freekeh, this salad is an easy and delicious way to get your feet wet. And if freekeh is already a regular part of your diet, then this is a recipe you'll definitely want to add to your stash!
This Fall Harvest Freekeh Salad is a culmination of all of my favorite salad-y things in one bowl. It's part dark leafy green salad and part wholegrain salad, plus it's full of fun, seasonal goodies that I love, like crisp apples and roasted butternut squash.
Kelli Dunn on Why Freekeh is the Best Old-Yet-New Grain We Need to Try
Author Interview
Put away your brown rice. Forget quinoa. This fall, freekeh is where it's at. The Kitchn's very own contributing editor Kelli Dunn has just published a brand new cookbook, Everyday Freekeh Meals, that tackles this new-to-us ancient grain head on and gives us plenty of ideas for how to cook with it.
What is freekeh, exactly? Glad you asked! Here's what Kelli has to say about the grain that inspired her whole cookbook.

I've had simple pasta dishes on the brain recently.

Hafiz Ali Khan
|Haafiz Ali Khan
Gwaliar, Madhya Pradesh
|1972 (aged 84)
Mumbai, Maharashtra, India
|Hindustani classical music
|Composer, Sarod player
Haafiz Ali Khan (1888–1972) was an Indian sarod player.[1] He was a tall figure in twentieth-century sarod music. A fifth-generation descendant of the famous Bangash Gharana of sarod players, Haafiz Ali was known for the lyrical beauty of his music and the crystal-clear tone of his strokes. The occasional critic has, however, observed that Khan's imagination was often closer to the semi-classical thumri idiom than the austere dhrupad style prevalent in his times.
Early life and background[edit]
Son and disciple of the sarod superstar Nanneh Khan, He grew up in a community of sarod players, it is likely that he studied with his father and a number of his proximate disciples.[2] He later took lessons from his cousin Abdulla Khan, nephew Mohammad Amir Khan, and finally the beenkar Wazir Khan of Rampur. Ustad Wazir Khan was a direct descendant of the legendary Tansen, through the lineage of the latter's daughter. Notably, Allauddin Khan of Maihar was also a pupil of Wazir Khan in Rampur in the same period. It said that Khansahib later studied dhrupad and thumri with Ganeshilal Mishra and Bhaiya Ganpatrao, respectively.
Performing career[edit]
Khansahib's regal appearance and electrifying charisma made him one of the most sought-after musicians of his time, which was no mean achievement for an instrumentalist in an era largely dominated by vocal music. Old-timers who have seen him in concert recall his stage presence and musicianship with reverence and awe. While still a court musician in Gwalior, Haafiz Ali would undertake numerous trips to Bengal, where he performed at all major music festivals, and taught a large number of disciples. Khan's music found generous patrons in two Bengali aristocrats, Raychand Boral and Manmatha Ghosh, both of whom studied with him at various points. Apart from his formidable command over traditional sarod compositions, dhrupad and thumri, Haafiz Ali Khan was particularly appreciated in the Viceregal firmament of colonial India for his unique, stylized renditions of "God Save The King" on his sarod. This tradition of performing sacred, religious and official state hymns on the sarod is kept alive by his illustrious son, Ustad Amjad Ali Khan as well as grandsons Amaan and Ayaan.
Haafiz Ali Khan died in 1972, at the age of 84 in New Delhi. A road in the name of the monumental icon of Indian classical music, Ustad Haafiz Ali Khan Saheb was inaugurated by the Honourable Chief Minister, Smt. Sheila Dikshit on 10 February at PWD Road. This is the 2nd entry road to Nizamuddin Railway Station. This is the only road named after an artist after Tansen and Thyagaraja in the capital city. This road is about 300 metres long.

Daniel Nii Tackie Mensah "Danny" Welbeck (born 26 November 1990) is an English footballer who plays for Manchester United and the England national team. He is a centre forward who can also play on the wing.
Welbeck made his way through the youth teams at Manchester United before making his senior debut in 2008 and scoring in the process. He has since gone on to win the 2008–09 Football League Cup and the 2008 FIFA Club World Cup before being sent on loan to Preston North End and more recently Sunderland.
He made his senior England debut in March 2011 in a 1–1 friendly draw against Ghana.
Born in Longsight, Manchester, England, to Ghanaian parents, Welbeck was first spotted by Manchester United as a six year-old. He joined United during the 2005–06 season,[citation needed] making his debut for the club's Under-18 side on 8 April 2006 in a league match against Sunderland. He then came on as a substitute in the next game, before being named as an unused substitute in the team's last two games of the season. The following season, he made a further 28 appearances for the Under-18s, scoring nine goals, including eight appearances and one goal in the FA Youth Cup, in which he helped the team to reach the final, despite being two years younger than some of the other players. He was not handicapped despite suffering from Osgood–Schlatter disease, and was making rapid progress, despite his pneumonia.

If Reggie Jackson could remember the first words he spoke, he probably wouldn't understand them.
They were in Italian.
"I wish I still knew (the language)," the Thunder guard says today.
If Reggie Jackson could remember the first words he spoke, he probably wouldn't understand them.
They were in Italian.
"I wish I still knew (the language)," the Thunder guard says today.
But you can forgive him for not remembering. Northeast Italy was where he was born — Pordenone, to be exact — and it's where he maintained dual citizenship until his 18th birthday.
But that only accounted for a small portion of his rare upbringing. Thanks to his father's military background, Reggie was an accomplished globe-trotter before the sixth grade.
It started in Pordenone, living off-base and learning the culture from his Italian nanny. But the vivid memories don't kick in until England.
That's where Reggie's family moved around his third birthday. And that's where his love of sports first sprouted.
"It was fun," he recalls. "I just remember following my brothers around, going to nearby parks, playing soccer a lot."
That was the theme in those early days. No matter where they were, and they were a lot of places, sports served as the common thread.
Reggie's two brothers — Travis and Trez — are eight and 10 years older. But once Reggie could walk, he could play.
"He may not have been as big as us," Travis said. "But in his mind, I think he thought he was."
That confidence served him well at the family's next stop. Because in North Dakota, where they stayed about a year, the sport of choice was a bit more physical than soccer.
"Man, that was when I started getting into roller hockey, watching 'Mighty Ducks,'" Reggie said. "I remember snow being on the ground, a foot tall in the backyard."
"Yeah, 'Mighty Ducks' was hot," Travis agreed. "We had pucks, sticks, the whole thing. But we messed up the garage a lot because we didn't have no other goals."
After that, Reggie moved to Georgia, his fourth home before his seventh birthday. And basketball really started to pique his interest.
The family lived about 10 minutes from the military base in Valdosta, a South Georgia town with a population around 50,000.
And nearly every day, the brothers would make their way to the on-base youth center to play basketball. Reggie was 7, his brothers were 15 and 17. But the rules were uniform, no matter your age.
"No blood, no foul," Reggie said. "Even if there was blood, probably no foul."
Those early games, he says, bred a rare ability to maneuver around the paint. As one of the NBA's breakout performers this season, Reggie's biggest offensive asset has been a great touch near the rim and natural feel for when to drop the silky floater.
"I guess you can give us a little credit for that," Travis joked. "He has a lot of war wounds and scars from playing that backyard basketball with us."

Holmen Board Shoots Down Request For New Fluoride Ballot
No new referendum on fluoride in Holmen this April...
Village leaders have sent the idea of a referendum to committee, which means there's little chance it would get on the spring ballot. Retiring Holmen trustee Tony Horvath proposed a new referendum, claiming that the village did not follow legal procedure in going ahead with fluoridation after voters said 'yes' in 2008.
Another proposal from Horvath was approved by the Holmen board...to switch to a different form of fluoride which he believes may be less harmful.
Miss Wis Gorman Not Surprised By Musberger Focus On Pageant Winner
A beauty pageant winner recently got plenty of public attention just by sitting in the stands at a football game.
The reigning Miss Alabama from the Miss USA Pageant was singled out for compliments by sportscaster Brent Musberger while watching her boyfriend play in the N-C-A-A championship game. Are pageant contestants annoyed by that kind of behavior? Recent Miss America contestant Kate Gorman says, it comes with the territory. Gorman, from Onalaska, represented Wisconsin at the Miss America finals in Las Vegas last week. She jokes that she hasn't been asked out for dates with college quarterbacks.
Minnesota Gun Legislation
(AP) The first firearms bill introduced in the Minnesota Legislature this session would make it harder for convicted felons who've served their time to regain the right to own a gun. The bill by Sen. Barb Goodwin, DFL-Columbia Heights, would eliminate the right of violent felons to petition courts for restoration of their gun ownership rights. Goodwin wants to transfer responsibility for those decisions to the Board of Pardons. The bill is just one of what could be several proposals to change Minnesota's liberal gun laws.

Feminist Theory
From Margin to Center, 3rd Edition
By bell hooks
Routledge – 2015 – 180 pages
Routledge – 2015 – 180 pages
When Feminist Theory: From Margin to Center was first published in 1984, it was welcomed and praised by feminist thinkers who wanted a new vision. Even so, individual readers frequently found the theory "unsettling" or "provocative." Today, the blueprint for feminist movement presented in the book remains as provocative and relevant as ever. Written in hooks's characteristic direct style, Feminist Theory embodies the hope that feminists can find a common language to spread the word and create a mass, global feminist movement.
Praise for the book:
"Feminist Theory: From Margin to Center is an important book. It is a readable, comprehensive, analytical critique of American feminist theory which should be widely used in women's studies courses and read by both scholars and activists." —Patricia Bell-Scott, The Women's Review of Books (1985)
Preface to the Second Edition: Seeing the Light: Visionary Feminism Preface to the First Edition 1. Black Women: Shaping Feminist Theory 2. Feminism: A Movement to End Sexist Oppression 3. The Significance of Feminist Movement 4. Sisterhood: Political Solidarity Among Women 5. Men: Comrades in Struggle 6. Changing Perspectives on Power 7. Rethinking the Nature of Work 8.

A cultural critic, an intellectual, and a feminist writer, bell hooks is best known for classic books including Ain't I a Woman, Bone Black, All About Love, Rock My Soul, Belonging, We Real Cool, Where We Stand, Teaching to Transgress, Teaching Community, Outlaw Culture, and Reel to Real. hooks is Distinguished Professor in Residence in Appalachian Studies at Berea College, and resides in her home state of Kentucky.

Doreen Putnam

Orlando was once a place where people came only to visit and vacation. Now it is home to a burgeoning Torah community, a place Jewish families can be proud to call home.
The smuggler's life has been changed forever. He is faced with a major criminal charge. He will probably be sent to prison.
"Thanks to a local philanthropist who shares our core mission, we now are able to connect more Jewish teens to Israel than ever before," said Todd Cohn, executive director of Southern NCSY.
In September 2013 he was appointed head rabbi of the IDF Central Command and is currently in charge of special projects for the IDF chief rabbinate.

How can you run away from Israel and all the things that have shaped your life?
Israel is so much more than a refuge for persecuted Jews.
Just imagine you are walking through a beautiful garden. Feast your eyes on the colors of the flowers, the grass at your feet, the leaves of the trees in shades from green to silver. Listen to the birds. Let the sunshine caress your face. Smell the perfume.
His dream was to reach out to every Jew, even the most secular.
This is a remarkable book to assist those of us – and that means everyone – who are trying to find our way in life, with all its setbacks and pain, as well as for people who want to help people.
Forty-six years ago, in the first week of June, Israel stunned the world when it wasn't looking. Four years later, Israel stunned me when I wasn't looking.
Jerusalem was never real to me. It was a name I came across in books of Bible stories as a child. If I'd ever tried to imagine it, it would have been like places in my books of fairy stories. I knew it was a city with crenellated walls, with domes and towers and minarets. In my mind, I saw it peopled with old men with long beards and flowing robes, and women with clay jugs precariously balanced on their heads.
Jews all over the world celebrate Israel's Independence Day – even those who have no intention of ever coming on aliyah, and many of whom have never even visited Israel. "It's a kind of insurance policy" one overseas friend told me. "By supporting Israel financially and emotionally, I know that its sanctuary is available to me or my children or grandchildren should the need ever arise."

Connecticut shoppers can look forward to a little extra money in their wallets when the state holds its annual tax-free week Aug. 17 to 23.
During that time, the 6.35 percent sales tax on most clothing and shoe purchases under $300 will be waived.
Revenue Services Commissioner Kevin Sullivan estimates that this year's tax-free period will save shoppers between $7 million and $8 million, about the same amount as in 2012 and 2103.
"It's a good opportunity for both back-to-school shoppers and retailers," Sullivan said. "The event brings people into stores, and stores traditionally offer special sales to go along with the tax savings. It's a hit all around."
Sullivan said that the week-long tax holiday, an annual event that began in 2000 and is mandated by state law, will continue in future years, in spite of the fact that the state budget for 2014-15 eliminates sales tax on clothing and footwear costing less than $50 as of July 1, 2015.
"Raising the tax-exempt amount to $300 for a week offers a good opportunity to families to save," Sullivan said.
This annual end-of-summer tax amnesty comes at a good time for cash-strapped parents.
Although American families with children in kindergarten through 12th grade will spend about $670 on school needs — an increase of about 5 percent from last year — parents will still be cautious with purchases, according to the National Retail Federation.
"Slow improvements in the economy may have contributed to the growth in confidence among back-to-school shoppers, and while we are encouraged by the overall tone of the results and expect to see continued improvement in consumer spending through the year, we know Americans are still grappling with their purchase decisions every day," Matthew Shay, the National Retail Federation's president and CEO, said in a press release. "Throughout the history of this survey, spending has fluctuated based on family needs each year, and this summer, we expect parents to continue to use caution but also make smart decisions for their family budget that is a good balance between what their children 'want' and what they actually need."
The biggest portion of family back-to-school budgets will go toward new apparel and accessories, with parents of school-age children spending an average of $356 on clothing and shoes. To help save, consumers are looking for deals at discount and department stores; buying store-brand and generic items; and comparison shopping online.
They're also waiting for last-minute specials.
National Retail Federation research shows that increased numbers of shoppers, including families with college-bound kids, have put off shopping to take advantage of retailers' late summer promotions.
"College shoppers generally cannot take the kind of gamble their younger counterparts can by waiting until the last minute to buy what they need for school — especially given their time frames to return to class or even make a big move across country — but this year, we are seeing that they, too, want to play the waiting game to see if deals are better later on," said Pam Goodfellow, consumer director of Prosper Insights Consumer, the company that conducted back-to-school surveys for the National Retail Federation.
That strategy can pay off, says Mark LoCastro of DealNews.com.
"Even though retailers have been offering back-to-school deals throughout the summer, customers who've waited for tax-free periods can expect to save even more," said LoCastro. "Stores offer some of their best sales of the summer to go along with a tax holiday."
Shoppers can also save on more than just backpacks. Sullivan said the week is a good time to shop for big-ticket items, such as fall and winter coats, jackets, suits and boots.
Under current regulations, sales tax is waived on most clothing items, shoes and boots priced under $300, and there's no limit on the number of items you can buy. Purchases can be made in stores, by phone or online. Put clothes or footwear priced at $299.99 or less on layaway during the week and you won't pay any tax, regardless of when you pick up the order.
Outlet Shopping
Thrift and consignment stores shoppers also get the savings.
Outlet centers are hoping to be tax-free week shopping destinations. Tanger Outlets in Westbrook will kick off tax-free week with a centerwide sale and free activities for students in grades K-8 on Aug. 17. Starting at noon, the first 500 kids to arrive will get a free backpack and clues to find free school supplies in participating stores.

Letter: Soaring
Joseph Bawduniak, Naples
On March 10, Naples Municipal Airport hosted a very enjoyable airplane and auto show for the benefit of Lorenzo Walker Institute of Technology.
The show was a sterling example of cooperation in our community of many groups.
LWIT staff and students worked at various tasks with airport staff. Several car clubs participated — West Coast Muscle Cars, the Cool Cruisers and my fellow members from the Antique Automobile Club of America. (Please excuse me if I missed some clubs.)
Airplanes were displayed by tenants of the airport, and there were many fly-ins from other communities. An extraordinary highlight was the performance by about 40 members of the Naples New Horizon Band.
Note, all of the above contributed their time free!
As a past member of the LWIT Foundation Board, I have a sense of what a great value the school is to our infrastructure. It was very gratifying to see so much community support for such a valuable institution.

Musharraf returns to Pakistan amid death threats
Musharraf tweeted that he was "thrilled to be back home" soon after he landed in Karachi. But there were moments of tension among his supporters when security forces whisked him away in a convoy of about a dozen vehicles, raising concerns he was being detained for the legal charges against him. It turns out he was simply being shifted to a different terminal, and his supporters had to wait over two hours before he came out to address them.
The former president plans to spend a few days at a hotel in Karachi, where he and his team will hash out their plan for the upcoming election, said spokeswoman Saima Ali Dada. He will then travel to Islamabad. Meanwhile, his legal team will meet to decide the best way to respond to the charges against him.
"He is hoping for the best," said Dada.
Musharraf took power in a 1999 coup and was forced out of office in 2008 amid growing discontent over his rule and the threat of impeachment by the country's two most powerful political parties. He has since lived in Dubai and London.
His decision to return was given a boost last week when a Pakistani court granted him pre-emptive bail - essentially preventing his immediate arrest - in three cases in which he's implicated, including Bhutto's death. He now has 10 days to appear in court. He has dismissed the various charges as baseless.
His return comes as Pakistan seeks for the first time to hand power from one elected government to another.
On Sunday, the country's election commission appointed a former high court chief justice nominated by the country's outgoing ruling party to serve as caretaker prime minister in the run-up to the election. The commission chose Mir Hazar Khan Khoso out of four nominees, two submitted by the recently ruling Pakistan People's Party and two by the main opposition Pakistan Muslim League-N.
Khoso served as the chief justice to the high court in southwest Baluchistan province and also briefly served as the acting governor of the province.
The election comes as the country is struggling with rolling blackouts, rising inflation and widespread security problems.
On Saturday, the Pakistan Taliban released a video threatening to unleash suicide bombers and snipers against Musharraf if he comes back. One of the two people speaking in the video was Adnan Rashid, a former Pakistani air force officer convicted in an attack against Musharraf. The Taliban broke Rashid out of prison last year, along with nearly 400 other detainees.
"The mujahedeen of Islam have prepared a death squad to send Pervez Musharraf to hell," said Rashid, who spoke in the video in front of a group of about 20 militants holding rifles. "We warn you to surrender yourself to us. Otherwise we will hit you from where you will never reckon."
Musharraf had been expected to address supporters at a gathering Sunday in Karachi near the mausoleum of Pakistan's founding father Mohammed Ali Jinnah. But police decided to cancel his permit because of a "very serious threat," said Tahir Naveed, the deputy inspector general of Karachi police. He said Musharraf would be provided with an armored vehicle to protect him. Banners and billboards welcoming Musharraf back to Pakistan lined the street from the airport.
