Last year, I made an Olympic-sized (pun-intended) effort to make over my back yard. I took down ivy (which dumped bugs and dirt in my bra), sawed down branches, pulled out weeds longer than my arm, built a fence, found an entire toy store's worth of balls and frisbees, and even dressed up my tiny patio with some new outdoor chairs and a couple planters. There was just one problem: My concrete slab patio is complete garbage. It's not really the slab's fault; it's mine. I often … [Read more...]
Going #BehindtheSeal with Good Housekeeping
As I've mentioned a number of times (uh, every post?) on this blog, I tend to stay a little busy these days. But earlier last month, I was asked to drop what I was doing and head up to New York for a quick tour of the Good Housekeeping Research Institute.* As in the New York - which I've never visited before (and in my heart, I knew I'd possibly love so much I'd never want to come home). So as you can imagine, I immediately put the paint brush down and packed a bag. Because New … [Read more...]
Priming Kitchen Cabinets: Days 2 and 3
Prime. Let dry. Repeat. Because of the humidity of Wetlanta, priming the kitchen cabinets took a little longer than I wanted it to. But after two coats of white on the front and back of each door, carefully painting the sides, and getting every little nook and cranny I could reach, the cabinets are ready for paint. Some of you requested closeups of what they look like with primer. As you can see, the primer doesn't really cover every last bit, and the wood grain still shows through a … [Read more...]
Progress, Progress Everywhere
As I mentioned yesterday, there were a number of to-do items tackled this weekend thanks in large part to my mom and grandmother coming over for a visit last Saturday (a big thanks to them both!). Priming the cabinets (and my ultra-perfectionist streak) has mostly been a one-man job, so I chose a different game plan for how to put them both to work: Granny folded laundry (which was both desperately needed and a chore I find akin to being pecked to death by a duck) while Mom tackled two more of … [Read more...]
Rain Delay
This weekend was one of those where a LOT of stuff got done. I was on a roll (no pun intended) with the primer (and also successfully getting. it. everywhere.). Mom and Granny came over again to help me tackle some of the other projects (like Mt. Washmore and painting another wall in the living room). And we even took Granny to Hooters for lunch (we expected it to be a laugh riot; it wasn't). But there were also a few speedbumps, like the rain. In my pursuit of a perfect paint finish on … [Read more...]
Moving me down the hallway
These photos are somewhat terrible. But when you're accidentally up late (I swear, I looked at the clock and it blinked from 10 PM to 1 AM), you take a couple of quick photos of your progress and call it a night. And then you deliriously name your post after a Jim Croce song. I will say though, I LOVE the way that the hallway is now much brighter - even at night. And I have BIG plans for the two empty wall spaces on either side of the guest bathroom door (when heading up the stairs, … [Read more...]
Full disclosure: I still haven't finished the first coat of paint in the upstairs hallway. A lot of you have been asking for me to give you some tips on how I fit everything into my schedule (between work, grad school, the blog, and DIY projects). Most of the time, I can manage it just fine - as long as I stay a little flexible. (P.S. I am currently working on a series of posts to give you guys some more insight and tips on how things work around here. Stay tuned for the beginning of that … [Read more...]
What to do with unexpected setbacks
Last Saturday evening, a huge rainstorm swept through Atlanta. I tell you this because Sunday morning, there was a very large POP sound (like a shotgun, so I assume it was a transformer) and the power had gone out. Considering that I had been planning on spending my morning using a shop vac in the dining room, I was a little bummed at the unexpected setback. But, since I also have about 200 unfinished projects around the house on any given day, I wasn't deterred for long. I swept out all … [Read more...]

Winter Classic 2011: Caps show steel in Steel City victory
- Marcus Johansson and the Capitals outworked and outhustled the Penguins in their 3-1 victory in the Winter Classic (Photo: Associated Press)
PITTSBURGH-It was built up like a playoff game. It was played with the intensity and physicality of a playoff game. And, ultimately, the Washington Capitals won the 2011 NHL Winter Classic in the way that they will win however many playoff games go their way in the spring.
It was fitting, in that sense, that the game was played on an ice rink surrounded by a carpet of fake snow (for the benefit of NBC's cameras) and in temperatures that fluctuated between the high-40s and and low-50s. If you didn't have a calendar handy, you would have felt like this game was being played on May 1, not January 1.
When the run-up to this game is examined in retrospect, it will appear that the Caps were being set up to implode spectacularly. They had been co-stars of a reality show that exposed all the tensions inherent in the team's eight-game December losing streak. Their coach had become (in the eyes of casual viewers, and not at all fairly) the epitome of the cartoonish, incoherent, dumb-jock-cum-out-of-his-depth-coach. Washington came off as the snakebitten bunch, the playoff chokers, the gang that couldn't make it easy on themselves, forever trying and failing to measure up to the well-blooded, mettle-proven, championship-winning group from Pittsburgh.
And then, the Capitals came into Heinz Field, in front of 68,111 people (most of whom, despite the large presence of Caps fans, still despised them), and played the Penguins even for one period before giving up an early breakaway goal to Evgeni Malkin with 17:47 remaining in the second.
It was easy to suspect at the time that that would be the killer blow, that the floodgates would open, and once again the Capitals would fall to defeat on a national stage. But instead of hanging their heads, Washington pricked up their ears. Instead of playing to limit the damage and hoping that luck was on their side, they went right at the Penguins and made their own luck.
Two minutes and forty-three seconds after Malkin's goal, Alex Ovechkin set off on a break out of the Caps defensive zone. Max Talbot panicked, grabbed Ovechkin, was sent to the penalty box for holding, and the Capitals scored on the ensuing power play to tie the game. The tying goal was a classic playoff marker featuring a loose puck, a scramble at the net, and a veteran (Mike Knuble) doing the honors.
Then, late in the period, Marcus Johansson came fresh off the bench on a line change and saw Pittsburgh goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury mishandle the puck behind his net. Taking his cue from his captain and his veteran teammates, the young Swede attacked.
"I saw he didn't have control of the puck," Johansson said. "He didn't know where I was." Johansson intercepted Fleury's abortive clearing attempt and centered to Eric Fehr, who scored the first of his two goals on the night.
"We thought it was going to be a grind-it-out game," said Capitals coach Bruce Boudreau. "It didn't look like the ice conditions would be great [Friday]. So we knew the fancy, tic-tac-toe stuff wasn't going to work. We know we had to dump it in, and we had to win the game below the circles, and I thought we did a real good job of that."
Ironically, everything that Caps fans feared would work against their team worked out for the best. The ice was not perfect, but held out just enough. The weather was awful, but slowed down the home team more than the visitors. The biggest call of the game, a marginal goaltender interference ruling that canceled out a potential game-tying goal late in the second period, went their way.
While not the results-based adversity of an eight-game losing streak, it was the adversity of surroundings -- as well as the Penguins -- that the Capitals were up against Saturday night. And who would have guessed that the Capitals would have to go outside to find out exactly what each man really had inside them: the energy, the defiance, the spirit, the will of steel that makes hostile environments and quality opposition seem like just another speed bump.
To sum up, in the words of Mike Knuble: "Everybody gave a crap tonight."
My Three Stars
-Eric Fehr: Scored his fifth and sixth goals to provide the Capitals with their winning margin.
-Semyon Varlamov: Stopped 32 shots while battling the wind and rain, as well as the Penguins.
-Mike Knuble: Things would not have ended as well as they did (or, perhaps, well at all) without Knuble's scrambled, game-tying, second period goal.

|City Administration > Public Information Office
|Veterans To Be Honored In Anaheim On Thursday, Nov. 10
ANAHEIM, CA - (October 13, 2011) - The City of Anaheim will continue its tradition of celebrating Veterans Day by honoring retired military members at a special ceremony in downtown Anaheim on Thursday, Nov. 10 at 3 p.m. Colonel Christopher D. Taylor, commander of the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit, will join Anaheim Mayor Tom Tait and the City Council at the at the Anaheim Veterans Monument and pay tribute to the brave men and women who willingly serve our country. The public and media are invited to attend this free patriotic celebration.
"Celebrating freedom is one of our greatest privileges, and we are looking forward to honoring the men and women of our armed forces who willingly sacrificed their lives for democracy and liberty," said Mayor Tom Tait. "America's veterans are true heroes, and it is our hope and intention to let them know how much they are appreciated and remembered, not just on Veterans Day, but every day."
The 9-foot high Anaheim Veterans Monument was dedicated on Dec. 4, 1999, and designed by Orange County artist Richard Turner. The monument, made from bronze-relief and concrete, depicts all branches of the military from wars of the 20th century. Turner's research in the Anaheim Library led him to include images depicting actual Anaheim residents. The monument is flanked by two fountains, representative of water washing away years of conflict.
The City of Anaheim adopted the 13th MEU on Oct. 9, 2007 to encourage interaction between the community and military personnel. The Marine adoption committee serves as a support system for the 13th MEU and their families at home while the Marines are deployed. The 13th MEU provides community support by participating in local school programs and City special events.
The Anaheim Veterans Monument is located adjacent to the Muzeo in downtown Anaheim ( 241 S. Anaheim Blvd.). Parking for the Veterans Day event will be available at Anaheim City Hall (200 S. Anaheim Blvd.), with special needs parking available at the northeast corner of Broadway and Lemon.
KOCE broadcaster and Marine veteran Ed Arnold will serve as the event emcee. Vocalist Kristen Romero will provide patriotic music.
Nov. 10 is also the anniversary of the Marine Corps, which was founded in 1775. A committee of the Continental Congress approved a resolution that year, officially forming the Continental Marines. Each year the Marine Corps marks Nov. 10 as its anniversary.

How to Make Craft Transfer Rub ons
By: Maria Nerius
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Use this technique to use transfer rub-ons for all of your craft projects. You can even learn how to make them from your own images.
Rub Ons
- Rub-on or transfer
- Surface
- Burnisher or smooth tool to use to rub or transfer the rub-on to the surface.
Step by Step
- Make sure you start with a clean surface, clean burnishing tool and clean hands. Work on a hard surface.
- If necessary trim excess from around the design you want to transfer.
- Place your design face down (backing will be facing up) on the surface you wish to apply it.
- Begin to rub the transfer. Start by rubbing down the edges of the design. Rub gently and firmly. When you think you have rubbed the entire surface of the design, slowly lift from one corner to make sure you got the entire design. Don't worry if you miss transferring a piece of the design, lay the transfer back down and rub again.
- Most rub ons and transfers come with a paper backing. Remove the transfer backing and place the paper backing over the design. Rub gently with your fingers to seal the bond of the rub on.
- In most cases you can seal the rub on or transfer with a spray sealer or protective coat of finish. Read rub on or transfer packaging for instructions.
Make your own rub on!
- Copy an image onto a sheet of transparency "paper" found at most office or computer stores. You need an ink jet printer for this technique since most laser printer ink dries too quickly.
- Immediately lay down the image onto the surface you want to transfer it to and rub!
- The image should rub on or transfer easily.

If you have a Franken-Monitor, you should get rid of it. If you do not have a Franken-Monitor, you should avoid buying or building one at all costs. The correct approach is to use a strategy and an architecture to procure a set of best of breed solutions that can be easily integrated into a common big data back end datastore.

APM as a Service from vendors like AppDynamics, New Relic, AppFirst, and AppEnsure is a viable option for most enterprises. While on premise solutions are not dead, legacy vendors who have not modernized their products for the new requirements at the application development, application deployment, and data center distribution are blind dinosaurs. They are dead – they just do not know the name of the asteroid that is going to kill them.
Virtualization Management is sufficiently different from systems management so that it is likely that VMware and Dell will disrupt the traditional systems management business instead of simply participating in it. This will hasten the demise of the legacy systems management vendors like IBM, CA, HP, and BMC.

Virtualization Security Announcements: Architecture Concerns
• • 1 Comment
There have been a large number of Announcements that have been made for VMworld Copenhagen with respect to virtualization and cloud security. This shows quite an interesting growth in the market, and that even 1 month apart there is still more to be announced within the virtual and cloud security spaces. There are three very interesting announcements that show further integration between vendors.
Monitoring the performance of the infrastructure, applications and services in IT as a Service environments will require that monitoring solutions become multi-tenant, can be instantiated by ITaaS management tools without any further configuration, and that they automatically "find" their back end management systems through whatever firewalls may be in place. These requirements will probably be the straw that breaks the camel's back for the heavyweight complex legacy tools that were in place prior to to the onset of virtualization, the public cloud and now IT as a Service. ITaaS is the tipping point that should cause most enterprises ignore every monitoring tool that they have bought in the past and to start over with a clean sheet of paper.
Mainstream virtual desktop solutions have focused their efforts on providing the best platform for hosting virtual desktop environments. Hypervisors, image management, and connection brokers are the top feature sets that companies have looked at during their comparisons. Moving up the stack, these vendors are now focusing on user personalization management, but do not have what is considered to be a full desktop management solution. So are our end-to-end virtual desktop solutions really complete?
Infrastructure Performance Management is the single most important performance and capacity management issue that owners of a virtual environment need to address. The reason for this is that since the low hanging fruit has been virtualized, what is left is business critical and performance critical applications in the hands of applications owners and their business constituents. In order to convince these groups that the virtual infrastructure is performing acceptably in support of these important applications Operations groups in charge of virtual environments need to move beyond trying to infer infrastructure performance from resource utilization patterns.
The acquisition of 3Tera by Computer Associates signals an intent to move beyond traditional Systems Management, into something that may almost be viewed as Operating System: a layer of software called AppLogic that sits above the virtualization stack, and provides a consolidated abstraction against which composite applications may be built within the Cloud. Essentially the AppLogic layer deals with the nuts and bolts of configuring and connecting virtual machines, all you do is choose from a menu of virtual appliances you want, and use a visual interface to show how the appliances interconnect at a software level.

News: CA to Acquire NetQoS, Inc. in $200 Million All-Cash Transaction
• • 0 Comments
Today (see below) CA announced that it is acquiring NetQos. The combination of the previously acquired Cassatt and Wily assets with the NetQos assets now give CA the full set of components needed to field a comprehensive performance management solution for virtual and cloud environments. The only question that remains is whether or not CA will be able to effectively position and sell these solutions into the virtualization marketplace against experience competitors like VizionCore and Veeam who have signficant channel and customer presence in this market.

Listen to President Obama and Mitt Romney on the campaign trail, and you could be forgiven for briefly thinking only one gender is allowed to vote. Both candidates regularly tailor their message to female voters: You can see it in the president's attacks on Romney's desire to cut Planned Parenthood funding and potentially appoint judges to overturn Roe v. Wade, and in Romney's claim that "this president has failed America's women" due to an uptick in female poverty.
There's a reason for this: Women are widely perceived as more likely than men to be swing voters. In the battleground state of Colorado, for example, both campaigns are open about the fact that they believe whoever makes the best case to suburban women will win the state.
Yet all the talk about women might make it easy to forget that men are a significant chunk of the electorate as well. While women outvoted men by about 10 million votes in the 2008 presidential election, men still made up 48 percent of the electorate. And white men alone made up more than one third of the electorate - 36 percent - according to national exit polls.
It's true that whites are slowly shrinking as a portion of the electorate as blacks, Hispanics and Asians grow in influence, which is why you don't see many news stories about them as a voting bloc. But they still pack a powerful electoral punch. White men, in fact, are providing the biggest drag on the president of any voting bloc as he tries to win another four years in the Oval Office. Even if the president gets his expected 80 percent support from minority voters, he is unlikely to win the election if he can't win more than one in three white men. And he might not.
A Washington Post/ABC News poll released this week found that white men support Romney over Mr. Obama 65 percent to 32 percent - a 2-to-1 margin. That suggests the president is doing worse among white men then he did in 2008, when exit polls showed he lost white men by a 57 percent to 41 percent margin. The poll also found white men moving away from the president: Romney's 19-point mid-October lead on handling the economy among the group has risen to 35 points today.

The disease of addiction, whether it be to alcohol or prescription or illegal drugs, brings suffering not just to the addict, but to his or her family, as well. Family members often are left to pick up the pieces and clean up the messes and adjust their own lives to accommodate the addict, according to Matt Lipe, cooridinator of Champions for a Drug Free Carroll County.
Family members can feel as though they are all alone in this, Lipe said. There are classes and groups for the addict to receive help but often there is nowhere for family members to turn.

"Worthless bitch. Get up." he said with a slur.
I tried to lift myself up off the ground, but my legs failed me. They were bruised and sore from my father's persistent kicking. I couldn't refuse him anymore, but his terms were so cruel.
Getting impatient, Father stood up, wearing a wifebeater with jeans that were sagging low to the ground, since he was holding his belt. He walked over to where I was on the floor and picked me up by the hair.
"Do you understand? I'm going to beat the hell out of you if you don't listen to me."
I squirmed, thinking I should resist, but I thought twice and decided it wasn't a good idea. Father threw me down on the sofa and looked at me with an animal expression. Without turning around, he pointed his remote at the TV and turned it on. Sounds of physical exertion met her ears. There was a lot of groaning and yelling.
"You're going to watch, and you're going to hate it. But if you stop, I'll beat you silly again."
I wanted to avert my eyes so badly, but I just couldn't. The bruises reminded me of what happens when I do that. I turned to face the screen, and almost threw up. There was a blond boy on the screen clothed in an orange jumpsuit. As if the Gods of Bad Timing knew this would happen, this was the precise moment the boy aimed his thumb at me, viewing from the sofa, and said in a boyish voice of self confidence, "Believe it!"
A squeak of pain leaked from between my teeth. No. I couldn't believe it. How could anyone believe it? I couldn't take it anymore, and made a run for the door.
"Hey, you whore, get back here and watch Naruto!"
As I reached the kitchen, I bumped into someone standing in the doorway. It was my foster mother. She looked at me with disgust and slapped me across the face, then kneed me in the chest.
I lie on the ground, crying. They took me to my room, and locked the door. Inside was a television playing all of Naruto Shippuden and the fillers of Naruto. All its control buttons had been completely removed and destroyed. The socket the TV was plugged into was in a lockbox. I couldn't get to it. I couldn't stop it. I lie trembling on my bed, crying softly into my pillow. Yelling from outside my door made me wince.
"Now stay in your room! And you better be watching Naruto!" my father's voice threatened.
He punched the door and I winced again. Why did this have to happen to me?
I boarded the computer in my room that my parents foolishly provided to me. I go by narutogirl on the internet. Naruto and pain are all I know. I don't even have a name.
I cried onto my keyboard. I couldn't watch any other anime because I'm forced to watch Naruto. I have internet access but an unknown force keeps me from better anime. All I can do is watch porn or Naruto.
This is my everyday life.
Believe it.

The End of Hyrule
Hyrule.net's Drama Week 2010
Monday, June 14, 2010.
1) I (Sahaqiel) organize a prank on YLA. (Tappy participated, or at least, gave the go-ahead) Not to get him to leave, just to get some laughs. Rumor starts, internet believes it and uproars. Hyrule.net becomes internet famous temporarily, even though ZeldaAC stole our spotlight. GMP flips out. lols were had.
2) YLA threatens to leave, not because of the prank, but because the game is cel shaded and he fears being bullied about it, which no one really did. In other words, he'd've threatened to leave even if we didn't pull the prank.
3) I post an apology thread and admit the purpose of the prank, but then, the game turns out cel shaded. Sahaqiel is a prophet, rumor mostly confirmed.
4) YLA threatens to leave a second time.
5) CO follows suit, apparently leaves.
6) YLA decides not to leave.
7) Cirt rants about a few members (mostly pheonix and I) in chat during discussion of SS for some reason
8) Cirt posts the thread "Disappointment", her feelings on the artistic style of Skyward Sword, confesses she doesn't feel like she fits in due to feelings on the game.
9) I make a long post that is a bit stern, but perfectly reasonable.
10) Kimmy brings up previous rant Cirt made in the thread.
11) Cirt threatens to leave.
12) Tappy demods me thinking this whole thing was a plot to get rid of YLA completely. Which it wasn't. I post retaliation thread. He logs in the following morning and I explain why this was a terrible idea that wasn't warranted. Tappy concedes and returns status. I delete retaliation post to get the whole ugly mess behind us, but fail because ugly messes are totally Hnet's thing this week.
13) Cirt decides not to leave, but asks to have her moderatorship taken away.
14) Nixtrix, through some source, misinterprets my posts in Cirt's thread as an attack, and demods Kimmy and I. Kimmy because she was a jerk to Cirt (even though she apologized) though the jerk part of it was literally just quoting what Cirt said word for word, and me because idk I was disagreeing with her. Neither of us were directly told why we were deopped.
15) Tappy covers it up with a decree like topic in the moderator forum stating that any mod who doesn't "contribute anything", like guides or art or anything, despite how little or how much the person moderates, will have their access taken away. Such an obvious cover up, because I got my access taken away shortly afterwards, and mods who are vastly more inactive than Kimmy or I kept their statuses, like Chef Nonsense.
That is all.
16) I get pissed and say so to Tappy's face in chat, then leave to watch anime for a few hours because that's what I was doing during 11-14. Tappy left right after I came in and insulted him, probably a ragequit because he kept talking in Skype to other users.
17) Nixtrix and Cirt think I'm butthurt, and Nixtrix hates me now or something for the Cirt incident, despite me just being really aggravated at how much of a dick Tappy is being. I feel quite unscathed about not being a moderator.
[20:04] <Nixtrix> tell that emo cunt
[20:04] <Nixtrix> I deleted his access
[20:04] <Nixtrix> and if he has a problem
[20:04] <Nixtrix> come see me
[20:04] <Nixtrix> kthnx
[20:04] <Samus> The fuck
[20:05] <kaffles> wait for real?
[20:05] <Legendary> you sound like my friend tell off a teacher
[20:05] <Samus> Nixtrix: you mean Sahaqiel?
[20:05] <Nixtrix> yes.
[20:05] <Whorey> no, but it does make me horny
[20:05] <Cascade> omg...
[20:05] <Samus> He is just butthurt because he lost his mod powers
[20:05] <Samus> LL, I'm Cirt, btw.
[20:05] <Nixtrix> He can be butthurt all he wants.
[20:06] <Nixtrix> Idont give a shit.
Which I don't get because my access was already removed at the time, and he definitely left before I could see him about it.
18) Tappy threatens to leave.
19) I can't quite remember what happened here, but anyway, turns out Hyrule.net's chat network is splitting from NixtrixIRC now, which is like the fiftieth network we've split from.
20) Tappy officially states he's going to leave, and since Nixtrix is gone and Tappy hasn't reinstated any moderator positions, there is almost no one active in the hierarchy, and there are literally no admins left.
21) Figurehead/Largely Legendary takes advantage of the situation, declares himself king, and posts a thread with only one image and no text, the image being a dead baby thrown in the trash.
22) Nixtrix logs on, clears up misunderstandings.
23) We all realize that there are literally only four mods, no administrators. All four mods are inactive members.
24) Dustin logs on with Padraig's help and Tappy grants mod status back to folks, Figurehead's topic is erased.
25) Hyrule.net's IRC is not splitting from Nixtrix's now, apparently.
26) Corrupt One announces he isn't leaving.
27) Tappy decides not to leave.
I think I covered everything.
This largely sprouted from communication, its errors, or lack thereof.
So yeah, first the Modocaust, then the Fiftieth Split, then the dark Wild-Westlike period, where there is no authority, that lasted a few hours, then fixed. :>

In Honor of Tappy
Meanwhile, Marquis spends the whole time trying to be cool.
Ok I know I said a lot, but I didn't mean it. I am sorry for being a hypocrite and a close minded idiot.
I will in fact buy Skyward Sword to test it out. I was planning to buy it since I first saw it. I'm just skeptical of change and all. I mean I still don't like the graphics, but it's ok I'll get over it.
I also want to say I love every Zelda game. Including Wind Waker, Phantom Hourglass, and Spirit Tracks.
I love in Wind Waker how Link has many emotions that he shows. I love in PH how you can get different fairies for power ups like a fire sword. I love in ST how the train went fast and the fighting scenes were enjoyable.
So I will replay Wind Waker and admit that my copy was never glitched.
I'm sorry for being a hypocritical, closed minded, jerky, stupid, idiotic asshole.
Whole forum rejoices. pheo casts much suspicion.

With every technology that is developed, some crooks will come up with a way to exploit it so as to scam people. Most scammers will use a combination of new and old tricks to fleece you of your hard earned cash.
Here are tips on how to avoid scams especially on the internet.
1. Know who you're dealing with
Would you give your personal details to a stranger you met in the streets? Not really. Similarly, you should avoid giving your detail to companies you are not familiar with.
Before buying items from a seller that is not well known, try to find out about their physical address. Reputable business or people will have no difficulty in giving you're their address.
In addition, you should try to get more information about the company from the Better Business Bureau.
2. Read your monthly statement
Reading monthly statements is boring but absolutely necessary if you want to avoid scams. It is not uncommon for con artists to steal your personal information and use it to commit fraud.
Some merchants are known to charge "monthly membership fees" on your credit card.
If you find any payment that you do not authorize, contact your credit card provider for more help. To be on the safe side, you must always keep your receipts.
3. After disasters, donate to authorized charities
After a disaster, well meaning people give money and personal details to fraudsters in the name of donation. In this case, you are advised to only give cash to authorized charities only and not those which have popped up overnight.
4. Get medical advice before buying drugs or treatments
It has never been easier to buy drugs and treatments on the internet. In addition to losing your money, health products can affect your health negatively.
You are therefore advised to seek medical advice before buying drugs online.
5. Be realistic
A lot of fraud cases would be avoided if only people were realistic. In other words, if a deal is too good, think twice.
In addition, if an investment or deal makes a promise of no risk and insists that you have to act now to qualify, it is likely to a be a fraud.
Sellers do not need your Social Security Number
After or before buying a product or service, sellers will often ask you to fill a data form. This form will usually ask you for information such as gender, age, and zip code among others. If the data you are needed to provide your social security number detail, you should be very suspicious about the request.
6. Do not reply to messages asking for personal details
Scammers can convince you to give them your details via phone, email, or text messages. In fact, you should not click on any links sent with such messages.
Clicking on such messages can lead to phishing where the fraudster tricks you to give them personal details on a fake website.
7. The bottom line
The most important tip about avoiding online scams is to always know who you are dealing with.

Skip the magazine and buy early montessori early reading material. Starting at age two and a half children are beginning to develop the capacity to learn letter sounds, that will later lead them to decoding. My two year old loves to do the sounds of the letters. Sandpaper letters, picture matching cards, rhyming, all things that help. there is a webinar called Learning to Read is Child's Play. It has some great ideas. here is the link http://ageofmontessori.org/resources/webinar-replays/
Reading is important to our family too and I notice that my son is nearing the "me do it" stage. He wants to know just how I get those stories out of the books!
National Geographic Little Kids -- complete with tear-out animal cards in every issue-- tops our list. Inside is also a fun science activity (that's where we learned about dancing raisins), It is simple, has zero ads or commercial tie-ins like its big kid version.
It's been a while, but I think I can come up with more.
My Backyard
Both are animal magazines.
Baby Bug--by the folks that publish Spider and Cricket. This glossy, durable little magazine was a favorite in our house through the age of 5, when they started discovering other magazines.
Ladybug-- the next age group up by the same publisher, and if he's a precocious reader, might be on his level, but otherwise has a lot of engaging poems and stories you can read together.
I would hightail it to your area libraries, and check out their offerings before committing to a subscription. However, that little Nat'l Geo is a sure pleaser, I think, and inexpensive. I vaguely remember a couple more. I'll post if I remember them.
"Let me see you stripped down to the bone. Let me hear you speaking just for me."
Ladybug- literature mag.
Ranger Rick jr. -nature mag.
They are ad free which means a lot to me. Ds has been enjoying them since 3 or so and still loves all of them at 5.
We do High Five, Click, and Ranger Rick Jr. If I could only pick one, it'd be Click.
Partner to R ('03); Parent to T ('07), A ('10), and E ('13)
I don't have any suggestions but dd got Ladybug magazine for her age in pre-k and she didn't care for it at all. She loves reading a lot too.
Let me make sure that my thoughts, words and actions are beneficial to the scene in which I find myself ~ Unknown
For that age we liked giving subscriptions to Wild Animal Baby from the National Wildlife Foundation, but I just looked and saw that NWF has replaced Wild Animal Baby and My Big Backyard with Ranger Rick, Jr., which I'm not familiar with.
Babybug and High Five are the favorites around here. The covers always seem to fall off of Ladybug, which annoys my DD. She barely glanced at her Zootles, but she is not super-interested in animals. I thought it was a nice magazine.
A good thing to remember with any magazine subscription is that it typically takes a long time to start, so as soon as you decide on one you might want to order it. My DD got a subscription for her birthday in mid-December to Click and we are still waiting for our first issue. We have had friends wait as long as 2 or 3 months to start getting theirs.
Another recommendation for Ladybug. We've really loved them.

Comments about Bogs Women's Rafters Breeze Sandals:
I ordered these sandals never having tried this brand and loved them. I have high arches and a little wider than average feet. These sandals are supportive, comfortable and a perfect all-around sandal. I liked them so much I ordered another pair the day after I received these! The coral color is beautiful, my first color was black with gray accent, a great color as well. The shipping was awesome, free and I received them in two days! Very, very satisfied.

Rafters Sandals offer good support
By Jobear
from Morton Grove, IL
Toe strap is soft and comfortable. Contour footbed really adds support not found in many flip flops. Love the arch support. Rafters is a good brand, reasonably priced.
Cute, comfortable sandals
I have back issues so I'm always trying to find "flip-flops" that I can walk in without compromising my comfort or health. These are not only perfect for that but look cute as well. The delivery is free and ultra-fast, I received them in a couple of days. That's difficult to top! Very happy all around.
Value for money
By Jade
from Denver, CO
These sandals are good, arch support is good but not great, since these sandals are very soft. Little firmness would be great. Overall for the price it's good and hoping it may last for a summer.
Super comfy!
By Joolz
from Burlington WI
About Me Casual
Best Uses
I wear these almost every day! They are so comfortable and they go with everything I wear. I appreciate that they have an arch support since I just developed plantar fascitis. I would love a pair in every color!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

TWD- Chocolate and Peppermint Marbled Loaf Cake
Tuesdays with Dorie treat was a real winner at our house. I used a smaller loaf pan so I made a mini loaf as well and left one with my parents and took the other home. By the time I had it cut and took a couple of pictures, my kids had each swiped a piece or two. It never made it from cutting board to plate but everyone loved it. After naps, my little man walked out and asked for a piece of "chocolate bread" and was very upset to hear we'd given the last piece away. That was my biggest problem with this recipe- it was eaten far too fast and was deceptively guiltless (hence the "chocolate bread" nickname). There's way too much butter to count this as decent breakfast fare but I'll admit it was a lovely breakfast. We loved the peppermint version (made by dividing the batter and adding melted white chocolate to one portion and melted chocolate and peppermint extract to the other). Dorie suggests several wonderful variations and I can't wait to try a raspberry key lime cake next time. See the recipe here and try the batter (it might have been even better than the amazing cake!)

Congratulations on your engagement to be married! We look forward to serving all of your needs on your special day. Please feel free to contact Conferencing and Event Services with any questions at (616) 632-1047 or email@example.com. Please read through the following guidelines governing wedding ceremonies on the campus of Aquinas College:
Catholic parties must abide by the marriage policy of the Grand Rapids Diocese; there is a nine month preparation period. If neither party is a member of a parish, it is important to find one that is willing to accommodate the preparation process with you and your fiancé. Couples must contact their own pastor or deacon to preside at their wedding. Couples must make arrangements to participate in a diocesan approved marriage preparation process. If the couple is unable to meet the conditions of the requirements for marriage preparation and documentation two weeks prior to the wedding, Aquinas College is not bound to the rental contract (room deposits are non-refundable). Catholic Weddings may take place on campus only in the Bukowski Chapel.
If neither of the parties to be married are baptized Catholic, they may use the Bukowski Chapel or the designated area on the grounds of Aquinas College (Holmdene Gardens) for a non-Catholic wedding. If neither party is a baptized Catholic, the couple is not bound to the Catholic preparation requirements for marriage, but must respect the sacred space and the arrangement of the chapel. Non-Catholic weddings (in which neither party is a baptized Catholic) may also take place on the grounds or in other buildings such as the Kretschmer Auditorium, the Performing Arts Center, etc., as available.
The prospective bride or groom is required to contact the Chapel Coordinator before a chapel reservation can be made with the Conferencing Coordinator for Catholic Weddings. After talking with one party of the engaged couple, and after assessing that the requirements of the marriage policy will be met, the Chapel Coordinator contacts the Conferencing Department with a request to tentatively reserve the chapel space for an available date of the party's preference. The Conferencing Department makes contact with the party in order to mail the contract and to remain in correspondence as needed. Once the engaged party makes a full deposit of the rental fee, the tentative reservation is confirmed.
In Church juridical matters, Aquinas College is an extension of St. Thomas Parish. The Sacrament of Matrimony is a juridical matter. All canon law, provincial and diocesan statutes, and parish policies and guidelines apply to Aquinas College as well.
Delegation of a Priest or a Deacon for a Catholic Wedding in the Bukowski Chapel
When Aquinas College grants permission for a wedding on campus, it should be clear that neither Aquinas College nor St. Thomas Parish provides a presider for the marriage. When speaking with a priest about getting ready for a marriage, the couple should inquire whether he is willing to preside at Aquinas College for the wedding. The pastor of St. Thomas Parish will delegate your presider to officiate at the wedding.
The pastor of St. Thomas Parish can delegate a priest other than the canonical pastor of either or both parties to preside at the nuptial ceremony. In such cases, however, St. Thomas Parish will do so only with written permission from the canonical pastor of the bride or groom. St. Thomas Parish will also require that all proper preparations are made and that the Diocesan Pre-Marriage file is accurately kept during the preparation and submitted to St. Thomas Parish to be filed after the ceremony.
Physical Arrangements of the Bukowski Chapel
Rental Fee
Availability for Weddings
Availability for weddings is determined by contacting the Conferencing Department at (616) 632-1047 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Rehearsals are to take place the evening before the wedding date, unless otherwise arranged through AQ Conferencing.
If more than one ceremony or event is scheduled for the day of the ceremony in the Bukowski Chapel, specific time restrictions may be necessary: generally three hours before and one hour after the ceremony will be included in the rental. All floral deliveries must be made within the rental period.
Officiate, Musician and Miscellaneous Information
It is the responsibility of the couple to provide their own officiating clergy, accompanist, vocalists, unity candle or holder. No food, drinks, or smoking are allowed in the Chapel.

Rosslyn Metro station continues to suffer from the escalator blues
- Shuffling toward light. (Photo: John Hendel)
The troubling dimension to WMATA repairs is the perception that no repair lasts forever. Last week, just as Metro announced new plans to hire a contractor to speed up escalator repairs, all of the escalators at the Rosslyn station broke and stayed broken for 61 minutes, all of which was during morning rush hour.
Last night I passed through the Rosslyn Metro station yet again around 5:45 p.m. — again in the very midst of rush hour — and saw both descending escalators working, yet neither ascending escalators worked. Riders initially didn't even have a way to exit the station outside of using the elevator. One of those two escalators was completely closed off; the other had WMATA workers blocking the entrance to it. A huge crowd of riders had gathered together waiting near the bottom of the escalators, the length of the masses snaking back toward the platform in a corridor that was already more narrow than usual due to a construction wall encroaching on the normal path to the escalators. They simply wanted to leave the Metro station and couldn't.
I watched in wonder at the Thursday evening scene and could only shake my head. Before long, riders were able to walk up the one broken escalator that wasn't blocked to them, and as I turned to leave, it looked as though one of the two descending escalators had its direction reversed to become an ascending escalator. Thank God for the sake of all those riders — these are dramatically long escalators we're talking about at Rosslyn, and not everyone can trek their way to the surface quite so easily.
WMATA's struggling with these escalators, and I get that. They reacted fast enough and did seem to remedy the situation. But thing is, this is rush hour, and I equally get how anyone in that crowd of waiting riders would feel a very powerful sense of frustration.

Woman's age at puberty could determine her child's weight
Filed under: Health & Safety: Babies, Nutrition: Health, Development/Milestones: Babies, Media
It seems that there is a brand new factor to blame for the obesity epidemic in North America and the UK: the age of their Mothers were when they hit puberty. According to new research, women who start having periods early are more likely than those who get them later to have overweight children. In addition, Mothers who had periods at a younger age tended to have children who were shorter and fatter than average.
I might get eaten alive in the comments for this, but I have to say that I don't buy the blame game. I do understand that obesity is sometimes the result of a medical condition, but I believe that for the most part, overweight kids can be linked directly and precisely with eating too much and exercising too little. Period.
The obesity problem is not found in countries that aren't flush with excess wealth and food. It's not evident in countries where walking and cycling are the preferred method of transport. Perhaps there is predisposition for obesity in our genes, but don't you think that any predisposition can be offset with running and kayaking and playing kickball? I really think so.
I was 17 when I got my first period. I guess there's a chance that Nolan will be wiry and lithe for the rest of my life, but I'd rather he play a lot of tag than rely on my skinny genes.

Exactly. I am so sick and tired of the "blame game" that surrounds the obesity issue. Stop eating junk food. Stop sitting in front of the t.v. Get yourself and your kids outside and simply be physical. You don't have to cycle or run or go to the gym. Just get up and be active. Eat fruits and vegetables, whole grains. Cut out the fast food and convenience foods.
Obesity is an epidemic of poor parenting, gluttony, and laziness. There, its been said. Now I'll be eaten alive. But there's not a whole lot of me to eat I'm afraid!
For the record, I entered puberty reasonably early (age 11) and have a long lean son to show for my reproductive efforts, so I'm not going to lose sleep over the "new research".
4-24-2007 @ 4:10PMRobin said...
It's an odd thing to portray this as a causative relationship rather than a correlative one: haven't we been told for years that overweight girls tend to start puberty earlier? And isn't it common sense that between genetics (conditions like PCOS or insulin resistance that tend to run in families) and especially lifestyle and education, overweight parents tend to raise overweight children?
It's definitely a cycle, and sadly, a lot of parents out there still aren't properly educated about nutrition and health. I originally come from a community where people don't see anything wrong with putting orange pop in a baby's bottle because "it's got orange," full of neighbourhoods where there's no safe place for kids to go out and play, especially when their parent(s) work(s) twelve hours a day, places where it can be cheaper to buy fast food than fresh produce unless you have the time and money to go cross-town to a better grocery store.
You're completely right that in most cases obesity has to do with eating too much and exercising too little - but there are a lot of complex social factors behind exactly why so many of us (especially those in the lowest income brackets) do this.
4-24-2007 @ 4:55PMJeannie said...
Robin - I just don't know that obesity can be accurately parlayed into an economic issue. That seems like grasping at straws, finding excuses for fat people.
4-24-2007 @ 11:21PMAnn Adams said...
Robin, of course it's often economics. I could have written your post and we went back far enough in the archives here, you'd probably find mine saying the same thing (only you probably said it better).

Can I Use Normal Maple Syrup?
Madal bal natural tree syrup was formulated specifically for this detox program and has the correct proportions of mineral concentrations and nutritional value.
The madal bal natural tree syrup consists of high grade maple syrup and is mixed with special blends of palm syrups.
Normal maple syrup can be used but it doesn't work as well as madal bal syrup. The madal bal syrup is the purest and best choice when using the detox to lose weight.
How Does The Lemon Detox Diet Work?
It works with your body to detox yourself, in effect it is a fast.
A fast is when you abstain from food for a period of time that suits you. This detox is basically liquid food so that you can sustain your fast. It nourishes and energises you, so that you can keep going, without falling over!
Like all fasts it is very important to not eat solid food, the digestion of solids consume most of your bodies energy requirements, in the absence of food your body is free to focus itself on cleansing.
Many religions practice fasting and it has been shown that periodic abstinence from solid food to be a blessing for the entire body, it can be the best investment in improved health you can try.
How Does Each Ingredient Work?
The acidity of lemon juice assists the cleansing process, it acts like an internal detergent to dissolve excess fats. The cayenne pepper or ground ginger helps to speed up metabolism and promotes circulation and the elimination of toxins. The syrups are your life support and give you instant energy and nutrition they also provide the liquid medium essential for the efficient flushing of waste from your body.
Pros Of The Lemon Detox
- Great way to cleanse your body of nasty toxins
- Can be used for weight loss if you are overweight
- Natural way to increase energy and vitality
- Promotes shinier hair and stronger nails
- Gives you clearer skin and crystal clear eyes
- Aids your digestive system
- Overall health improvement and a better sense of well being
Side Effects Of The Lemon Detox Diet
The side effects of this detox are pretty much the same as the side effects from any fast, you will go through a period of time where you will feel pretty bad and lethargic, this is your bodies warning to you. After a while when most of the toxins in your body have been dealt with and washed away you will start to feel remarkably healthier. Some people even report life changing experiences from their first fast. Important to note is that you should listen to your body, if you feel you are over doing it then you must stop your fast, it is also advisable to seek medical advice before attempting anything, friends that have participating in a fast before can also give you really good advice.
Where Can I Buy This Special Detox Mixture

Philips Xper Flex Cardio Hemodynamic Monitoring Offers Clinical Decision Support
Philips Healthcare announced the release of the Xper Flex Cardio Physiomonitoring system, a hemodynamic cardiac monitoring solution used to facilitate invasive investigation of heart and vascular disease. Equipped with advanced clinical decision support tools to assist clinicians in evaluating a patient's overall cardio performance, and general cardiovascular status, Xper Flex Cardio may also be used to display and analyze invasive blood pressure, surface electrocardiogram (ECG), respiration and other vital signs. The system is specifically designed for environments such as cath labs, EP labs and interventional radiology and cardiovascular Hybrid operating room (OR) environments.
The Xper Flex Cardio Physiomonitoring system presents several distinct advantages over previous systems, including traditional 12-lead interpretation of the resting ECG in addition to 16-lead analysis, enabling clinicians the freedom to choose which approach is most appropriate for each situation. The additional right chest and posterior leads used in 16-lead ECGs can provide information that may not be apparent on traditional 12-lead ECGs.
Xper Flex Cardio also comes equipped with integrated fractional flow reserve (FFR) functionality—which provides data that could aid in treatment decisions, and a DXL ECG Algorithm analysis capability that uses multiple steps to produce precise and consistent ECG measurements that are used to generate interpretive statements. Additionally, the system has Culprit Artery Detection—a technology that provides suggestions on the probable site of an occlusion prior to cath procedure, saving valuable time and assisting with procedure planning—and patented ST Maps that provide a graphical indication of ST elevation.
