Jutta Profijt: When I first heard the news, I could not believe it, because the success of the Morgue Drawer series is based on political incorrectness and black humor--two characteristics that usually find a lot of enthusiasm among readers but little appreciation among German awards committees. I was very happy, of course, but it hasn't really changed my life or my writing. I still write for readers, not for awards committees.
Q: How did you create such a memorable pair of crime fighters? Are Martin and Pascha based on anyone you know?
JP: The idea to have a "ghost" investigating his own murder came to me when I visited the morgue in Cologne. There, among the bodies, I suddenly thought: "What if one of these deceased people is not as dead as he is supposed to be?" Thank god there is no one like Pascha around in my real life. I just wanted to create a character that really drives Martin--the only person who can hear him and who can't get rid of him--up the wall. So I gave Pascha all the characteristics I don't like in people: I made him uneducated, intolerant, narrow-minded, egocentric, and sexist. But he also touches my heart because he is so lonely, and his heart is in the right place. And readers like him, too.
Q: Did a real morgue drawer inspire Pascha's new home? Why number four?
JP: Yes, there's a real morgue drawer in Cologne, but the drawers are not numbered. I wanted Pascha to think of it as his last known address, so I chose that form; and the number had to be four because I liked the sound of the title in German.
Q: You have quite a résumé: au pair, importer/exporter, executive coach, English instructor. Have these varied experiences shaped you as a writer?
JP: I believe that everything I have done in life has had an effect on my writing, but my becoming a novelist was purely coincidence. I never planned to start writing, but it's somewhat logical. I have always been interested in other people, curious to see what they do and to understand why they do it. Communication has always played a major part in my life, often in foreign languages as I taught and translated English and French. When writing novels, I can combine all these interests.
Q: What's next for unlikely hero Martin Gänsewein?
JP: Pascha sticks around to give Martin a hard time. In his private life, in his job, even in the bathroom, Martin will be watched--and not just watched, because Pascha comments on and criticizes every move Martin makes. And because Pascha has reached eternity, there's no end in sight for Martin to get rid of him.
Jutta Profijt was born in 1967 in Ratingen, Germany. After finishing school, she lived abroad working as an au pair, an importer/exporter, a coach to executives and students, and a business English instructor. She published her first novel in 2003 and today works as a freelance writer and translator. Her first novel featuring coroner Martin Gänsewein, Morgue Drawer Four, was shortlisted for Germany's 2010 Friedrich Glauser Prize for best crime novel.
Erik J. Macki worked as a cherry-orchard tour guide, copy editor, web developer, and German and French teacher before settling into his translation career--probably an inevitable choice, as he has collected foreign-language grammars, dictionaries, and language-learning books since childhood and to this day is not above diagramming sentences when duty so calls. A former resident of Cologne and Münster, Germany, and of Tours, France, he did his graduate work in Germanics and comparative syntax. He now translates novels and nonfiction for adults and children from his home in Seattle, where he lives with his family and their black lab, Zephyr.

Virtual Villagers 3: The Secret City
Question from outlawracer0309
Once you complete all the listed puzzles, are there any other taks to complete or is the game over with?
I have solved all the puzzles, however, is the game now over with for the current tribe?? I still have not collected all the feathers, turtle shells, and the last 2 pieces of the tablet never showed! I am now stumped as to what to do with my current tribe? Please help!!
5 years ago
The game is considered officially over when you have solved all the puzzles. Collecting everything gives you a population boost, but that's it.
As for what to do with your current tribe you can: Max out the population, keep playing, or start over with a new tribe. There's not much else to do until you can purchase Virtual Villagers 4.

I am really impressed by this Mod. It looks and feels fantastic and ironically perfroms even better than the Complete Mod while looking more detailled and overall just BETTER, a lot more crispy.

I am really impressed by this Mod. It looks and feels fantastic and ironically perfroms even better than the Complete Mod while looking more detailled and overall just BETTER, a lot more crispy.

Have you ever played renegade? Yeah? Question answered.
I have a technical question.. Complete Mod is currently running just fine on my machine, except for those seemingly unavoidable 5 sec laggs at certain areas (i.e. when crossing the trench on my way to bar, when coming from garbage) and some tearing.
Does LURK eat more ressources than Complete?
Sounds like something in your user.ltx is messed up. Simply go try reinstalling the game, then installing patch 1.05 (tahts all you need), then follow the installing instructions of this mod.
If the problem remains, try tweaking settings of the game a bit.
If it still remains, try tweaking the settings of your videocard driver a bit.
fap fap fap fap
Between perfectionists and assburgers theres only a line, which is fine.
I have exactly the same problem.
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
You guys are perfectionists and thats a great thing! Modding community needs more people of that kind.
My first playthrough with Complete will end soon, I then will immediately download this.
Looking at your "promotional" pictures and reading through your changelogs I always found myself agreeing with everything while beeing impressed by the great job youve done.
You guys could be successful game developers with so much attitude and passion. Then again, you could probably be successful at nearly anything.
I dont see no download link on your homepage.
Why should I register if theres no download? =/
Seriously, you are just playing with us.
Where is the official download-link? =/
I hope the flamethrower and flametanks will not suck as much as in Renegade and not be as hard to hit with. In renegade those flames basically were rifle shots hitbox-wise, just looking like flames.
Your best model, looks tight

Hey, check these two pictures:
How my game looks like: Img24.imageshack.us
And how its supposed to look like: Img3.imageshack.us
What did I do wrong?
I installed the game, patched chronologically, installed Complete 1.0 and then overwrote the gamedata folder with 1.4.
Please help.
Also, how to manually increase the size of the trading screen pattern?
Sorry my dumbness. Maybe you should add things that originally were in the modifier.exe to your Readme-files.
How to manually enable dynamic lightning of campfires?
cant wait! this is gonna be great.
but i think you should have kept the music as it is.
ram is irrelevant for the overall performance of games like this.
so is the system, theortically (if you ignore hardware/software compabilities).
I have a nice system as well but get these "reloading"-freezes too at set locations in the world maps, i.e. if i enter the bar area.
virtual ram and cpu processing power are most important.. what is your CPU and your videocard?
How is the rapidfiring AK one of the best guns in Stalker?
In vanilla Stalker the AK unfortunately is inferior to all other assault rifles, except for the AK-SU. The rapidfiring Ak would be the third worst rifle.
What adds to it is that after having emptied ~20 magazines, you can throw it away and will never find it again..
but I play mods that enable me to repair stuff anyway, since my very first playthrough that is.
the newest patch makes the whole thing even better, thanks for the great work!
Nevermind my older comment.
I just read you got 1.4 out, will 1.32-savegames work for it?
Extract from the readme-file:
"- to enable sun shafts (god rays) effect go to "gamedata\shaders\r2\SkyGRAPHICS_options.cfg" and change
"//#define SUN_SHAFTS" to "#define SUN_SHAFTS" at the beginning of the document,
they are disabled by default and I recommend to keep it that way to avoid artifacts and lighting problems."
Anyone know why my bar trader wont do repairs anymore after I did the "Kill the master stalker" mission?
Is it supposed to be that way? If yes, whereelse can I repair stuff or where to find a repairkit if ever?
Hey buddy, you dont happen to know whether its normal that the innkeeper wont do repairs anymore after you went to the army camp and killed the master-stalker? Were repairs at the bar always available for you? At least I thought thats the way its supposed to be.
Im very excited for this mod as I absolutely agree with everything you changed!
Without atmosphere? You didnt even give it a chance ^^
Its the other way arround, the completely redone set of detailed textures, overhauled sounds, depth of field, optimized lighting etc really increases the atmosphere.
I simply made a suggestion of combining two great things for an even greater outcome, you dont have to be so destructive.
Also, how is it their goal to bring back "bad" things?
Im just saying that by using new (better!) textures, models and effects, the outcome would be even better (in my opinion).
Its just a suggestion, of course that would interfere with the goal to create an "oldschool" Stalker.
Hey you guys! Have you ever seen the "Complete Mod 2009"?
I highly recommend you take a look at it and maybe try and work together with the creator as combining your ideas and "new" (lost) contents with some of the amazing stuff "Complete mod 09" added graphics-wise would be totally awesome and the ultimate outcome in my honest opinion!
Maybe you can think about it.

How come we don't see him more often in Hindi films, where his last recorded experience was in RGV's 'Aag' in 2007? This time, there is no smile accompanying his response. "There is no why. When I get a good role, I would want to do it. 'Company' was a cult film. Following my performance, whenever I would meet police officers while travelling, they would call me 'Company-wala'. So it's not the role but how the role is placed in the film that is critical."
Still and all, I wonder as I ponder that non-answer, with the flurry of south Indian films being remade in Hindi these days, how does he not want to be a part of the boom, more so given his good friend Priyadarshan remakes so many of them? "Why should I come and work in them? There are so many wonderful actors here. Priyan remakes the films to adjust in this market, which is way larger market than the Kerala market," he said.
Since they're being modified to suit a different industry, does it risk any loss in translation? "You have to sacrifice the emotional part and put in more action, dances and songs. Remaking films is not a new thing. When I do a good film in Malayalam, only a portion of the population will watch it. If the same film is made in Hindi, the entire nation will watch it. It's a good thing, and it's all about how you conceive it. It's nice to watch your baby doing well in all languages. Sometimes if you make an exact remake, the soul could be missing and hence modifications need to be made," he responds.

|Margaret Field Douglas (b. 1945)
Virginia Field (4 November 1917 – 2 January 1992) was a British-born film actress.[1]
She was born Margaret Cynthia Field in London. Her father was the judge of Leicester County Court Circuit. Her mother was a cousin of Confederate General Robert E. Lee and her aunt was British stage actress and director Auriol Lee.[2]
She was educated in Paris, France, and then returned to England where she studied for the stage. In Vienna she acted for Max Reinhardt and on returning to Britain she was given her first film role in The Lady is Willing followed by a Hollywood contract.
She went to the U.S. to appear in David O. Selznick's Little Lord Fauntleroy (1936). In the late 1930s she appeared in various parts in 20th Century Fox's Mr. Moto film series.
During the long-running Perry Mason series on CBS between 1957 and 1966, Field made six guest appearances. In both the 1960 episode, "The Case of the Provocative Protege", and the 1962 episode, "The Case of the Polka Dot Pony," she played the murderer. In the 1964 episode, "The Case of the Simple Simon," Field played the role of Mason's client and defendant Ramona Carver. She also appeared as Lotta Langley in an episode of the ABC series The Rebel, starring Nick Adams.
Field married three times. Her spouses included actors Paul Douglas and Willard Parker. She and Douglas had a daughter, Margaret Field Douglas (born 1945). Field is buried at the Forest Lawn Cemetery in Cathedral City, California.

Del Mar's influence may extend to Breeders' Cup
DEL MAR -- The Del Mar Thoroughbred Club will end its annual 43-day meet today, but it's time to look to the future -- and, more specifically, what effect the Del Mar season will have on this year's Breeders' Cup, which will be held Oct. 24 at Santa Anita.
- Breeders' Cup Classic: Let's start with the biggest race and go from there.
Undoubtedly, Pacific Classic winner Candy Ride will be one of the top two choices if he is supplemented to the tune of $800,000 for the $5 million race. Owners Sid and Jenny Craig have proven to be riverboat gamblers in the past, and I see no reason why that won't happen with their undefeated Argentine-bred.
Horse of the Year honors will be on the line between Candy Ride and Mineshaft, the top older horse from the East.
The burning question remains: Who will be the jockey aboard Candy Ride in the Classic? My hunch is Julie Krone will ride back, and that's only because the Craigs or trainer Ron McAnally haven't come out publicly to support former jockey Gary Stevens, who was injured at the time of the Pacific Classic.
- BC Turf: Europeans seem to dominate this race, and this year might not be an exception. The interesting horse will be Storming Home, which Stevens was riding in the Arlington Million when he got hurt. Stevens said he will ride Storming Home back for trainer Neil Drysdale. That's certainly a gutsy move by Stevens after almost losing his life in that spill.
- BC Sprint: Del Mar will produce several horses in this 6-furlong speedfest.
Bing Crosby Handicap winner Beau's Town was very impressive, and has been given a break by Midwest trainer Cole Norman so he will be fresh for the Sprint. Then on Saturday, Yankee Gentleman, owned by Rancho Santa Fe's Marty and Pam Wygod, won the Pirate's Bounty Stakes in the fastest 6-furlong time of the meet, beating Beau's Town's mark.
The problem with Yankee Gentlemen is that he has no Breeders' Cup points, so he will have to run in the Sept. 28 Ancient Title at Santa Anita in hopes of securing points or chance being left out of the Breeders' Cup field.
- BC Juvenile: Today's Futurity winner will likely have a big leg up on participating, but as a whole the West Coast juveniles seem to be a step behind the ones on the East Coast, especially the ones from the Todd Pletcher barn. However, 2-year-olds can improve by leaps and bounds at this time of the year, so watch results of upcoming races very carefully.
- BC Juvenile Fillies: No doubt, Halfbridled's victory in the Del Mar Debutante was one of the most impressive of the meet. The way Krone had to go with her twice from the rail and still win the race with something left was unbelievable.
It would have been nice to see trainer Eoin Harty's Tizdubai in the race, but he elected to pass and wait for the opening day at Santa Anita. In this division, it appears the West may be best.

Luckiest Man Ever Survives After Chainsaw Gets Stuck in His Neck [VIDEO]

Talk about your close calls.
Sportsmanship and humanity were on display full force recently in a Ukrainian Premier League soccer match when one player saved the life of an opponent after a scary collision.
The first freak of the 2014 Major League Baseball season didn't even involve a player.
Take this job and shove it.
Michigan State, Connecticut, Kentucky and Michigan each advanced to the Elite Eight of the 2014 NCAA men's basketball tournament on Friday night. Here's a recap of the action:
The police always get their man. Always.
Hey, did you know that getting hit by a baseball hurts? You did? Well, then, you're one step ahead of this journalist.
Who knew the fine people of Norway had such a thing for McDonald's?
Authorities have concluded that Malaysia Airlines flight 370 fell into the Indian Ocean, killing all 239 people onboard.
And this is why we love the NCAA Tournament.
Even among hockey fights, this is nuts.

Wyclef bro: Haiti presidential bid 'very serious'
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti Wyclef Jean's planned run for Haiti's presidency is bound to make entertainment headlines, but the hip-hop artist's brother knows trying to take charge of this earthquake-devastated and politically unstable country is a deadly serious affair.
Schoolhouse charts of past leaders are crowded with monthslong presidencies and group shots of the military juntas that overthrew them. Heads of state have been flown into exile, crowned themselves emperor or been killed more often than they have completed constitutional five-year terms. One president was torn limb from limb by an angry mob.
Whoever wins the Nov. 28 election will face the Herculean task of rebuilding from the Jan. 12 magnitude-7 earthquake that killed a government-estimated 300,000 people while managing billions in international reconstruction dollars amid feuding officials, families and an estimated 1.6 million earthquake homeless, all hungry - some more literally than others - for their share.
Jean is expected to announce his bid for the presidency on Thursday from Haiti.
After The Associated Press first reported that an announcement was coming, the singer's brother, Samuel Jean, said the Haitian-American family was going into the process with its eyes open and breath held.
"It's not something that was taken lightly. It's not a joke. It's something very, very serious," the younger Jean said by phone from his consultancy office in Los Angeles. "It is different for us, but we are proud of him and we are going to support him in any way we can."
The former Fugee was born on the outskirts of Port-au-Prince but grew up in Brooklyn. His published age is 37, but his 39-year-old brother said that in fact Wyclef is likely 40, ascribing the confusion in part to their history as immigrants and Haiti's often confusing record-keeping.
Scores of candidates are expected to compete for the presidency in the November contest. Among them is Jean's uncle Raymond Joseph, who is Haiti's ambassador in Washington. Other likely candidates include former prime ministers, mayors and another popular Haitian musician, Michel "Sweet Micky" Martelly.
Former Chamber of Deputies leader Pierre Eric Jean-Jacques told the AP that the hip-hop artist will run as part of his coalition in the election. Jean's brother said he could not immediately confirm what party the singer would run with.
Controversy already surrounds the election, as opponents accuse President Rene Preval of stacking the deck for an as-yet-unnamed candidate of his recently formed Unity party. He has ignored calls from U.S. senators and others to reform the eight-member, presidentially approved electoral council ahead of the vote and ensure the participation of all parties.
The last election Preval oversaw, a 2009 legislative contest, was held after more than a year and a half of delays and marred by extremely low turnout, allegations of fraud and a few, small outbursts of violence.
The party of ousted ex-President Jean-Bertrand Aristide - who was flown into African exile in 2004 aboard a U.S. plane - was barred from running based on a technicality. It is expected to be banned again this year.

Hi kvitalij - You'll have to excuse me. I'm new to the whole 3D thing, so I'm not sure what you mean by "what render did I use." I basically did the save-as-2D-image that the free version of SketchUp has. If you mean how did I set it up to save it to a 2D image, I went to View > Edge Style > and turned off Display Edges & Profiles to get the last few images that I posted. The Face Style is set to Shaded with Textures.
Is that what you meant?
Here's another in progress shot - pulled back out a little bit.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by 2 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Body_in_Motion perfect I really like these overalls! They look just as pictured except not quite so faded. The fit is amazing (true to size). I am 5' and 120lbs with an athletic build. I typically wear a 25 in pants/shorts so I ordered a 0 in these and they fit perfect. I could've gotten away with a size 2 for a more loose fit, but with the 0 I can let the top half hang down with the straps at my thighs and not worry about the shorts falling down. There is a button and a zipper on one side so the shorts feel more secure. I'm a 32C and there is ample room in the bib. The ties do unknot so gals with a larger chest can adjust the straps to accommodate that. Definitely glad to have these. 8.20.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by fpj9 Couldn't resist! I love overalls! I have the fp denim (long) overalls and the boyfriend short tail and had to add these to my collection.I just couldn't resist! They fit tts: I'm usually a comfortable 29, and the size 6 fit me perfect. (Not loose, not snug) I'm 5'8, 135 lbs, 34-27-37. I like that the back is exposed so you can show off a cute fp bra or tank/tunic/cami. You can barely tell they're pinstripe unless you look really close - they just look like a washed black.

WALLA WALLA -- Nevermore is the vow from a city official about a recent starling eradication program that left a couple of Sudbury Landfill neighbors' yards littered with hundreds of dead birds.
"I am not going to use it on my property (Sudbury Landfill) again because of the people," landfill Supervisor Dennis Rakestraw said.
Rakestraw was referring to the use of DRC-1339, a USDA-approved toxin recently used to kill an estimated 3,000 of what had been about 5,000 unwanted European starlings at the landfill. DRC-1339 targets only a few species, including starlings.
The reasons for the mass poisonings are numerous.
According to a USDA fact sheet, the non-native species -- starlings were brought to the U.S. in the 1890s -- can spread histoplasmosis and salmonella in humans and spread animal diseases from farm to farm.
"It is a disease issue. You got 5,000 birds flying above your head, you better have a hat on. They carry diseases just like any other bird," Rakestraw said.
There were other reasons for the poisonings.
The fact sheet notes starlings compete with native birds for resources, pose a threat to air traffic and create abundant cleanup costs due to droppings.
Rakestraw said equipment deterioration and power loss were two other reasons for his decision to poison the birds.
The starlings tend to roost together by the hundreds on power lines at the landfill. When startled, the starlings would all fly off at once, causing the power lines to oscillate and touch each other, which caused power failures, Rakestraw said.
So in mid-December, a USDA-authorized starling poisoning took place at the landfill.
A licensed monitor watched and made sure no other species of birds consumed the bait.
Then after thousands of starlings consumed the poison, the bait boxes were removed.
It was the second time the landfill had resorted to poisoning the birds.
The first time was in 2010, and local neighbor Mike Johnson remembered well the eerie sight he discovered on his yard at the 00 block of South Campbell Road.
"I woke up in the morning and I went out to do something. And it was 'Oh my God, there are dead birds everywhere.' And it makes you wonder what the heck is going on," Johnson said.
What Johnson said he saw only a couple of days after each poisoning were hundreds of dead starlings, perhaps even thousands, on his property and that of his neighbor, the KUJ radio station offices at 45 S. Campbell Road.
Rakestraw confirmed that after both poisoning, city crews came out and cleaned up the dead birds, which were mostly around the KUJ towers, a roosting spot.
"The ground was pretty much black when you looked over there," Johnson said.
Johnson added that when he and his neighbors learned the birds were poisoned, they grew concerned that their dogs and cats might get sick.
USDA Assistant District Supervisor James Powell said the chance of pets or other animals getting sick is unlikely because the poison doesn't stay in the starlings, and he referred to the fact sheet explanation.
"The treated starlings will metabolize and excrete the compound before expiring so dogs, cats and wildlife will not be harmed by consuming the bodies of dead starlings," the fact sheet stated.
It went on to state that the only known secondary poisoning death from the avicide DRC-1339 was in 1968, when one crow died after possibly eating the innards of a recently poisoned pigeon.
Regardless of the unlikeliness of a secondary poisoning, Rakestraw said he will instead rely on noisemakers to scare away the starlings in the future.

University of California, Davis (Civil Engineering)
Hi there!
My name is Morgan W., and I have a strong affinity for mathematics. Math has always been my favorite and strongest subject. I smile and get excited when I learn or talk about math, especially when I discover tricks and shortcuts.
I have nearly three total years of experience in tutoring math subjects. Most of that time was spent with same- and lower-grade students at my high school about algebra, geometry, and pre-calculus. One year I helped my school receptionist, who was in community college, with her algebra 1 assignments. All students had a better understanding of the math concepts that I helped them with.
In the summer of 2011 I have interned at the Engineering and Transportation Department at the City of San Leandro, CA, under a student internship program run by the Bay Area's Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), based in Oakland, CA. In the paid internship, I had drawn parking lot layouts for the Senior Transportation Engineer, as well as conducted multiple traffic surveys -- parking, spot-speed, origin-destination, and lane width -- throughout the internship.
Currently I am a second-year civil engineering student at the University of California, Davis. My most recently completed math course there was MAT 22A, the class about linear algebra.
Though math had always been a friendly subject for me, the first time I was ever blindsided by it was when I took MAT 21A (derivatives) my first quarter in college. I did not have calculus before then, so I struggled considerably. I came out of the course with a not-so-good grade. That class actually made me question whether math was my favorite subject anymore.
But the next quarter, when I took 21A again, with determination to comprehend calculus and pass the class, my understanding of derivatives and other concepts taught the first quarter had dramatically improved. Given newly attained exposure, the concepts made a lot more sense. I went from failing calculus one quarter to subject mastery the next. That reassured, reinforced, and reconfirmed the fact that I love math.
When I see that someone is in need of help with math and does not want to struggle with it, I am always willing to step up and offer my assistance.
I am competent tutoring any subject in math, up to and including calculus. Soon, I will also offer tutoring in piano. Hi there!

Approved subjects are in bold.
In most cases, tutors gain approval in a subject by passing a proficiency exam. For some subject areas, like music and art, tutors submit written requests to demonstrate their proficiency to potential students. If a tutor is interested but not yet approved in a subject, the subject will appear in non-bold font. Tutors need to be approved in a subject prior to beginning lessons.
I loved when I was learning the first level of algebra. I just liked the motion, relocation, and manipulation of numbers and variables. I also had a fun time tutoring it. I can see how the manipulation work and processes can get over one's head; it can seem like a lot to keep track of. But trust me: algebra 1 is not as hard as it looks.
To me, Algebra is a case of number movement and working with variables. There are no complicated processes involved. I have found Algebra quite fun when I learned it and have tutored it to schoolmates in high school.
From first-hand experience, I know how quirky and tricky calculus can be. As with any math, I look for the fastest, most understandable ways of solving calculus problems. It's all about looking for those tricks and discovering reliable byways associated with calculus concepts.
I have passed the proficiency exam, and I have a few tricks up my sleeve, however I would like to further my understanding of the subject. And I think that's best accomplished by talking about it with other people.
Elementary math consists of the simple, basic building blocks needed to tackle any math later on. I am willing to work with students to get started with mathematics. One's mathematical foundation should always be as strong as possible.
Geometry to me is a practice of working with shapes. It isn't "math;" it is visualizing. It was very interesting when I learned it.
Algebra to me is a case of number movement and working with variables. Prealgebra is a starting stage -- an opportunity to get a feel for what actual algebra is and to prepare to do some work. Prealgebra was quite interesting when I learned it.
I can help students navigate the trickiest part of the SAT: Mathematics. Some questions aren't as straight forward as they seem; they are quirky problems with hidden ways to get through them. My highest math score in the SAT is 640 out of 800.
Morgan W. passed a background check on 7/22/13. The check was ordered by Morgan through First Advantage. For more information, please review the background check information page.
After sending a message to Morgan, you will be able to order a new background check for $7.99. As part of your tutor selection process, we encourage you to run updated background checks. Please also review the safety tips for hiring tutors.

The other day I wrote to ask about overactive letdown and decreasing my supply, which I seem to have figured out (we nurse every 3 hours and baby has learned how to deal with the letdown by herself), but now I seem to have a new problem...
I return to work next week and have been pumping this week during the times I will be able to pump at work to get both of our bodies into a routine. Dh bottle feeds her 2xs, which is as many times as I pump. She is still eating her usual 8-9 times a day, but it seems to be that she is spending less time per feeding at the breast (although my breasts still feel empty after she is done). All of a sudden, when I went to pump yesterday nothing happened, not even a drop. This morning I tried again and same thing. I thought maybe it was the pump so I changed the batteries, checked the flanges and lines and then I even tried the handpump (which I have always been successful with) and nothing. Usually I have a let-down after 2 1/2 hours but it has now been 4 hours and nothing. I am stressed enough about going back to work next week I don't want to have to worry about supply issues!
The lactation consultant in my area never returns phone calls and I think I need some support and advice!
I'm sorry I have no advice, only to say I have had a similar problem- going back to school next week, pumping to get a little cache of milk for when I'm gone and I'm producing half as much (sometimes less) than I was when I first began pumping. Maybe stress?
I see you've gone back to work already, what did you do? How did you get through it?

Yes, I had similar problems, I could not pump enough to make it worth while. I had a hefty supply, but just couldnt pump it. I could leak it though.
I found some good info on Kellymom http://www.kellymom.com/bf/pumping/pumping_decrease.html
There is also a link to a calculator to determine how much pumped milk an EBF baby should need, which I found helpful.

It really does sound like a let-down issue doesn't it? Her nursing for less time now would be normal. Many babies become efficient nursers after a few weeks and can quickly get what they need. There's a lot of research on hands-on pumping that seems to increase substantially the amount of milk many women are able to pump. Here's a great link for a video http://newborns.stanford.edu/Breastfeeding/MaxProduction.html Using your hands to massage the breasts while relaxing and thinking of baby may be helpful. Additionally a look at the fit of the flanges can sometimes help. (Nipple size changes as your body adjusts to pumping) If the nipple is tight or rubbing against the sides of the tunnel when you're pumping, moving up a size should help as well. That's such a hard place to be and I wish you all the best!
What I learned: the letdown reflex is strongly psychological, and you can "trick" it by using different associations and triggers. It's also a learned reflex, to letdown for a pump (which of course doesn't have the powerful hormonal connection with you that baby does).
Some things that can help, if you can't have baby there with you to get the flow going-- a picture of baby, a video of baby to watch, especially one of baby crying, an audio recording of your baby crying for hunger, a few "dirty" baby clothes--- not dirty, just not laundered, so that they smell like baby-- or one of baby's blankets. Sometimes you'll get a letdown while sitting in a particular place, or looking at something in particular, and then you have to be in those same conditions, to get it to happen again. Double pumping can help. Playing around with flange size can help. Drinking water right before, and massaging the breasts, can help. Applying heat can help. But I never found a better trick than watching videos of DS crying for me.
Spending less time at the breast is normal for babies this age. It doesn't happen to all of them, but it happens to many. It doesn't mean you're not producing. What you might notice, though, is that you're not producing EXTRA anymore, so it can seem like you have less than you have before. So I wouldn't be concerned about supply-- unless you've seen that baby has stopped gaining or peeing, of course.
Stress can inhibit the letdown, too. Sometimes it can help to stop thinking about it. Put on a good TV show, and just chill, and let the pump go without paying it too much attention. That might do the trick.
My son is 3 months old today and I had two episodes with no milk not even a drop. The first one lasted three days. The second episode lasted almost two days. The first time, I drank Milkmaid tea from Babies R Us and pumped every 2-3 hours even though I didn't get any milk; each pump session lasted 10 minutes on each breast. The second time, I pumped 15 minutes per breast every 3-4 hours and drank extra water and milk. I also ate more protein.
Also, I find the pump makes a big difference. I use the Lansinoh manual pump; it's simple and I don't have to worry about adjusting the pressure and speed. With my older son, I tried a variety pumps--Medela electric and manual, Ameda electric, and Evenflo manual (thankfully, my husband was very supportive of my spending on these breast pumps). I didn't get as much milk with these pumps until I used the Lansinoh manual pump.

The Lakers haven't yet secured a meeting with LeBron James or Carmelo Anthony.
They might sit down with one of them. Or both. Or neither when free agency begins next week.
Without mentioning either player by name, Lakers General Manager Mitch Kupchak said the team would go "all out," if given the green light to woo them.
"If any of those players do want to make a move, we're prepared," Kupchak said Thursday. "Every situation's unique. We're still going to pitch that this is a championship franchise and that's going to be our goal. As long as Kobe [Bryant] is on this team, we have to believe that we can contend for a championship."
Kupchak acknowledged that elite free agents might have to take pay cuts to fit into the Lakers' cramped salary structure. They have already committed more than $37 million of next season's projected $63-million salary cap to Bryant, Steve Nash, Robert Sacre and rookie Julius Randle, whom they took with the seventh overall pick in Thursday's draft.
Anthony would have made $23.3 million and James would have made $20 million next season. James was also under contract for about $23 million in 2015-16.
In addition to steep pay cuts the duo would need to take, the Lakers would be longshots to sign them both because of their aging roster and 27-55 record last season. But Bryant could become part of the recruiting process, Kupchak said.
"I would not be surprised if Kobe reaches out or if free agents reach out to Kobe," Kupchak said.
Randle's their man
Old rivalries don't die. They just bleed into the draft when two teams are sagging.
Lakers executives were on edge in their draft room while the Boston Celtics pondered the sixth overall pick Thursday.
When it was revealed to be Oklahoma State guard Marcus Smart, the Lakers' brass burst out in excitement, smiles all around.
It allowed them to take power forward Randle with their highest selection on draft night in 32 years.
The Lakers were worried Boston would nab Randle, a double-double machine in one year at Kentucky.
Thanks, Celtics?
Randle is a Zach Randolph clone, slightly undersized for the position but seemingly always producing. He's also fearless, saying after a recent high-energy workout for the Lakers that he doesn't care if Bryant is tough on rookies.
Bryant weighed in on Twitter after the pick, welcoming Randle in the transition from "one legendary institution to one epic franchise."
Randle was measured at only 6 feet 9 in sneakers and at 250 pounds. Another possible reason he slipped to seventh was his right foot.
He had surgery 18 months ago, Kupchak said, to heal a high school injury and could need a follow-up procedure this summer to have a screw removed.
"They might want to do a surgery, but I'm not sure," Randle said. "I know if I do a surgery, I'll be ready way before the start of the season, by training camp."

Like many gardeners this time of the year, I have been spending cold winter evenings by the fire with a good catalog. The seed catalogues fill the mailbox and I barely make it up the driveway without taking a peak at what's offered for 2015.
Unusual items fascinate me. It's a challenge to find out what they are, where they came from and how old they are.
Claude Brock, Sr., found a heavy, hornshaped "thing" down by the Salt River a few years ago, Dolly brought it down to the Spencer Magnet office for me to examine, but I could shed no light on what it is.
A reading from the Gospel of St. Matthew 1:18-25:
The beauty outside the window on a snowy winter's day is hard to deny. The white blanket that covers everything seems so soft, while the frigid cold makes things appear crystal clear. To walk outside and hear the winter silence broken only by the crunch of snow underfoot and the soft hiss as the wind blows the snow along can be intoxicating.

While doing some microfilm research at the Louisville Free Public Library last week, this scribe ran across an interesting item in the Sept. 16, 1964 edition of the Louisville Journal.
The items gave details of a shooting in Taylorsville during the Civil War.
Here's what it said:
"Deporster Killed By A Brother Guerrilla.
Dear Savvy Senior,
What are the IRS income tax filing requirements for retirees this tax season? I didn't have to file last year, but I picked up a little income from a part-time job in 2014, and I'm wondering if I need to file this year.
Part-Time Retiree
The respected research group Brookings Institute has released reports that cast a disturbing eye on student-loan debt -- at least on the surface. The bare stats might look more grim than the reality.
Between 1989 and today, graduate students have left school with debt that has risen from $10,000 to $40,000. At the bachelor-degree level, the debt has risen from $6,000 to $16,000. However, because of having degrees, the lifetime income of those students also has increased enough.
DEAR DR. ROACH: You've discussed sleep aids and your belief that it is best to get off all of this type of medication. I am healthy, 75 (take no meds), exercise with weights, do swimming and running regularly, and since 2007 have been taking an over-the-counter sleep aid called doxylamine nightly with no apparent side effects. Do you see a problem with continuing? -- A.B.
Dear Savvy Senior,
Is there a good rule of thumb on who should buy a long-term care insurance policy? My wife and I have a few assets we'd like to protect but we hate the idea of paying expensive monthly premiums for a policy we may never use.
Planning Ahead
By Ned Way
We all use water much more than we think. We shower, brush our teeth, we flush it down the toilet, we drink it and use it to fix our meals and even to wash the salt off our cars! Around here it is one of those things we usually just take for granted. The Environmental Protection Agency claims that the average American family uses 400 gallons of water a day, the US Geological Survey suggests that the average person uses about 100 gallons a day.

We just returned from Taylorsville and on the drive home Andy remarked, "Wow, we have passed four dead skunks!" We don't see them on the farm as much as we used to because of the dogs, although I have been getting whiffs of them for about a week now. The lightbulb moment: it is mating season for skunks and they are on the move.

Two shares are set to open on an opposite direction on Wednesday. While Mitcham Industries (Nasdaq: MIND) shares are likely to test 52-week high after the impressive fourth quarter earnings results, Williams Partners LP's (NYSE: WPZ) stock is likely to see downside pressure after announcing an underwritten public offering.
Mitcham industries reported that its fourth quarter net income jumped to $10.2 million or 77 cents a share from $1.8 million or 17 cents a share in the year-ago quarter. Similarly, net revenues climbed 88 percent to $37.0 million from $19.7 million in the previous quarter. Revenues were driven by an 87 percent jump in equipment leasing to $23.7 million from $12.7 million in the year earlier quarter.
[Related -Dividend Roundup: CNI, BBT, WPZ, NSC, AMTD, MMP]
Both earnings and revenues were way ahead of Street analysts' estimations of 57 cents a share on revenues of $31.07 million. In the third quarter, the company's earnings were significantly higher than Street consensus. While Mitcham delivered 52 cents a share, analysts were expecting 22 cents a share.
More than the earnings, the company could realize major increases in price realization as evidenced by gross margins jumping eleven percentage points to 57 percent from 46 percent.
Interestingly, analysts' have raised their EPS estimate on Mitcham to 78 cents a share for the first quarter from 69 cents a share within two months. Also, no analyst recommends the stock as a Sell. All analysts have a Buy or Hold rating on the company's shares.
[Related -Fear Has Now Trumped Fundamentals]
For the three brokers covering MIND, the highest price target is $36.00, and lowest target is $25.00. Their mean and median price target is $29.67 and $28.00 respectively. For the 52-week period, the stock touched a high of $26.76 and a low of $9.52. The yearly high price is 10.9 percent lower than analysts' mean price target and 4.6 percent lower than median target.
Williams Partners, Wednesday could be a tough day. The trend was already visible when its stock witnessed $2.04 or 3.6 percent fall to finish the Tuesday's extended hours of trading at $54.26. This follows after the company announced a public offering of 9 million to fund its $2.5 billion acquisition of a Cairn Energy subsidiary.
Last month, the company disclosed that it was acquiring Cairn Energy's pipeline infrastructure to extend its coverage in the Marcellus Shale region. Williams Partners estimates that the facility could offer natural gas worth 300 trillion cubic feet within 35 mile radius of the gathering system.
Normally, whenever a company announces a public offering or secondary offering, shares of the company tend to fall for two primary reasons. One is that it could dilute existing share value and more stock will be available thereby reducing demand.
For the 52-week period, the stock reached a high of $65.39 and a low of $45.39.

Detroit Red Wings forward Pavel Datsyuk is known for his skill, but you can't forget about how incredibly smart he is. He picked up his own rebound, looked at the net, realized he had enough space and fired it from behind the net off the back of the glove of St. Louis Blues rookie goaltender Jake Allen. Unfortunately for Datsyuk, his magic wasn't enough as the Red Wings blew a 2-0 lead and lost 4-3 in overtime. Allen must have felt great after earning his first career victory in his first career start. [NHL.com]

The 'manager,' son of the owner, was superb! He was easily reached by phone, spoke excellent English, arranged for a rental car and a cab to get back to the airport, gave us directions and advice. We 'adopted' him!
The driveway up to the B and B...slightly steep which is quite common in the mountainous areas of Costa Rica.
The owners were so friendly and helpful - we felt safe and comfortable here. It became our home away from home.
The owner is very friendly and speaks perfect English. The food was delicious. Also, they have a courtyard with several animals and birds. It was delightful to stay at Apartments Casa Lima B&B!
Clean room, and spacious
The gym was pretty messy, and too much equipment for the size of room it was in.
Nice facility great service and amazing staff!
Location was excellent-right on the pedestrian walkway convienient to stores, restaurants, and sights. Breakfast was included and had made to order eggs, and other offerings. Wi-fi was free. Rooms were very comfortable and very clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
The atmosphere, the fact that is new and clean. The personnel of the hotel, the food during breakfast.
I did not like the streets surrounding the hotel
Stayed on 2 Saturdays a week apart. Big Parties and Events going on. Our room was too close to the action. Last night there was an event like senior prom. Kids running through the halls yelling. Nothing seemed to be done to curb the noise. When we finally left after no sleep at 5am, the party goers were still going strong. Front Desk didn't seem too interested in resolving either.
Bas service
Friendly sttaf, good location in the main city. It has breakfast
Maybe for some an air conditioner will be necessary.
Staff was friendly and easy to work with. Included breakfast was very good.
Room felt old and dirty. Bed was very uncomfortable. There was no hot water in the shower. Very disappointed with this place.

Female impersonation need say nothing about sexual identity, but it has for a long time been almost an institutionalized aspect of gay male culture.
Although sparse in images documenting the gay community, pre-Stonewall gay male photography blurs the boundaries between art, erotica, and social history.
Given the historic stigma around making, circulating, and possessing overtly homoerotic images, the visual arts have been especially important for providing a socially sanctioned arena for depicting the naked male body and suggesting homoerotic desire.
Independent films that aggressively assert homosexual identity and queer culture, the New Queer Cinema can be seen as the culmination of several developments in American cinema.
Renowned photographer, teacher, critic, editor, and curator, Minor White created some of the most interesting photographs of male nudes of the second half of the twentieth century, but did not exhibit them for fear of scandal.
The first international fashion superstar, Halston dressed and befriended some of America's most glamorous women.
An artistic movement that grew out of Dadaism and flourished in Europe shortly after World War I, Surrealism embraced the idea that art was an expression of the subconscious.
Film, stage, and television actor Paul Winfield was openly gay in his private life, but maintained public silence about his homosexuality.
Activist James Dale in a GLAAD video.
As the Boy Scouts of America National Council gathers in Dallas to reconsider its ban on gay scouts and leaders on May 24, 2013, the real question is not whether they will (as expected) repeal the ban on scouts but retain it for adult scout leaders and employees. The real question is whether whatever they do is too little, too late. The leaders of the Boy Scouts of America have managed to besmirch their own brand, which at one time was as honored and as American as apple pie. The BSA has marginalized itself so as to become little more than a religious organization, largely Southern and rural, more famous for bigotry than for building character.
In the face of plummeting membership, the BSA is desperate to refurbish its tarnished image. It has recently lost a number of major donors; many municipalities, government groups, and charitable organizations have pointedly disassociated themselves from the organization; and even entertainers have refused to perform at its jamborees, fearing that any affiliation with the BSA might hurt their careers.
But it is far from clear whether it is now possible for the Boy Scouts to recover the luster it once had. Precisely because so many people now hold the organization in disdain and have abandoned it, the Boy Scouts is in ever more thrall to the conservative religious groups that sponsor most of its troops, and it is unlikely that it can reach out beyond that increasingly narrow base.
The so-called "compromise" that would allow openly gay scouts but not adults is not a compromise at all. It continues to brand gay people as potential predators. It will please neither the critics of the current discriminatory policy nor those who support it.
The situation of the Boy Scouts is rife with irony. They fought all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court to preserve their right to discriminate against gay people. They won at the Court, but their victory was pyrrhic. It has forever associated the organization with blatant bigotry.
The case that reached the Supreme Court was brought by Lambda Legal on behalf of Eagle Scout and former assistant scoutmaster James Dale in 1990. He had been active in a New Jersey troop during the 1980s, but the Monmouth Council of the BSA forced him out when they read about his membership in a gay student group at Rutgers University in a newspaper article.
Ruling against Dale, New Jersey superior court judge Patrick McGann accused him of "moral depravity" and used material from the Bible to support his decision in favor of the Boy Scouts. Dale and his lawyers, led by Evan Wolfson, appealed the case, and the state appellate court ruled that the Boy Scouts was a "public accommodation" and had to obey the state's anti-discrimination law.
The Boy Scouts appealed the case to the United States Supreme Court. In June 2000, a bitterly divided Court ruled 5-4 that the New Jersey law banning discrimination against homosexuals did not apply to the Boy Scouts. Citing the organization's First Amendment right of freedom of association, the U.S. Supreme Court supported the organization's policy of banning gay members and leaders.
In a new video produced by GLAAD, which has been leading the campaign against BSA's discriminatory policies, Dale speaks about his case and how even in losing he won.
