The Apgar score, the very first test given to your newborn, occurs in the delivery or birthing room right after your baby's birth. The test was designed to quickly evaluate a newborn's physical condition and to determine any immediate need for extra medical or emergency care.
Although the Apgar score was developed in 1952 by an anesthesiologist named Virginia Apgar, you may have also heard it referred to as an acronym for: Appearance, Pulse, Grimace, Activity, and Respiration.
The Apgar test is usually given to a baby twice: once at 1 minute after birth, and again at 5 minutes after birth. Sometimes, if there are concerns about the baby's condition or the score at 5 minutes is low, the test may be scored for a third time at 10 minutes after birth.
Five factors are used to evaluate the baby's condition and each factor is scored on a scale of 0 to 2, with 2 being the best score:
Doctors, midwives, or nurses add these five factors together to calculate the Apgar score. Scores obtainable are between 10 and 0, with 10 being the highest possible score.
A baby who scores an 8 or above on the test is generally considered in good health. However, a lower score doesn't mean that your baby is unhealthy or abnormal. But it may mean that your baby simply needs some special immediate care, such as suctioning of the airways or oxygen to help him or her breathe, after which your baby may improve.
At 5 minutes after birth, the Apgar score is recalculated. If your baby's score was low at first and hasn't improved, or there are other concerns, the doctors and nurses will continue any necessary medical care and will closely monitor your baby. Some babies are born with conditions that require extra medical care; others just take a little longer than usual to adjust to life outside the womb. Most newborns with initial Apgar scores that are a little low will eventually do just fine.
It's important for new parents to keep their baby's Apgar score in perspective. The test was designed to help health care providers assess a newborn's overall physical condition so that they could quickly determine whether the baby needed immediate medical care. It was not designed to predict a baby's long-term health, behavior, intellectual status, personality, or outcome. Very few babies score a perfect 10, since their hands and feet usually remain blue until they have warmed up. And perfectly healthy babies sometimes have a lower-than-usual score, especially in the first few minutes after birth.
Keep in mind that a slightly low Apgar score (especially at 1 minute) is common for some newborns, especially those born after a high-risk pregnancy, cesarean section, or a complicated labor and delivery. Lower Apgar scores are also seen in premature babies, who usually have less muscle tone than full-term newborns and who, in many cases, will require extra monitoring and breathing assistance because of their immature lungs.
If your doctor or midwife is concerned about your baby's score, he or she will let you know and will explain how your baby is doing, what might be causing problems, if any, and what care is being given.
With time to adjust to the new environment, and with any necessary medical care, most babies do very well. So rather than focusing on a number, just enjoy your new baby!

A corrections officer has been arrested on three felony charges, accused of collecting $16,124 from the states insurance and workers compensation fund by providing false documentation of an on-duty injury at the Watertown Correctional Facility.
Corrections officer Steven M. Laplaca, 51, address unavailable, was charged Monday with third-degree grand larceny, first-degree falsifying business records and workers compensation fraud.
The purported injury was documented as occurring at the prison April 13 while Mr. Laplaca was responding to an alarm. He returned to work July 1, state police said.
State police in Watertown assisted the state inspector generals office in the arrest.
Mr. Laplaca was arraigned in Watertown Town Court and released on his own recognizance, pending grand jury action.
State police did not release any additional information Tuesday.

The spring runways are chock full of off-the-charts-amazing accessories, but of all the emerging trendy pieces, the boxy bag is attracting considerable attention. We spotted this ladylike handbag at a number of shows, such as Chloe and Oscar de la Renta, where it appeared in two intriguing styles: a compact and structured envelope purse or a vintage-inspired satchel. Both versions add an unexpectedly fresh, yet totally traditional touch to any outfit, so it's no surprise that some of our favorite girls-about-town are already boxy-bag obsessed and carrying them in very inspired ways.
At first glance, the boxy bag might appear quite similar to other recently popular purse styles, but we assure you the differences are great. Unlike a slouchy messenger or a sturdy briefcase, this bag conveys a kind of polished power through its formal, feminine shape. It's a particularly relevant choice right now, as the squarish shape echoes one of the season's key trends-statement shoulders-in a subtle way.
As seen at Chloe's Spring 09 show, the Sally Shoulder Bag ($1995) is definitely the leader of the boxy-bag pack thus far. The sophistication of the gilt frame, chain strap, and boldly colored luxurious leather adds a modern twist to the classic structure. This accessory can be dressed up with a satin jumpsuit as seen on the runway (above, left) or dressed down with a pair of jeans, sweatshirt and peacoat as spotted on Rachel Bilson, who wore her emerald Sally Bag while running errands in LA. We love the Tory Burch Jill Bag ($450), the Kate Spade Sullivan Street Sybella Bag ($425), or the Croc Mini Square Grab Bag ($44) from Topshop: all are equally sharp, but more budget-friendly, options.
In addition to the sophisticated boxy bags, the other version of this trend is slightly more utilitarian. As seen on the Oscar de la Renta Spring 09 runway, some spring handbags reference dop kits, vintage cosmetic cases, or small valises. These pragmatic pieces are resonating with quirky-cool British chicettes, Alexa Chung and Agyness Deyn, who are already devoted to these hard-edged bags. Chung, who paired a vintage record case with a duffle coat and skinny leather pants, toted her boxy bag to the Lynx Bullet Launch Party in London. Meanwhile Deyn, wearing an oversized cardigan, colorful frock and leather cap, transported her daily essentials in a mini vintage suitcase with a long shoulder strap while running errands around New York's East Village, proving she hasn't lost any of her idiosyncratic English style.
For a truly authentic piece, try to find an original on eBay.com: we found a vintage 45 Record Box or the vintage Samsonite Train Make-Up Case, which would absolutely do the trick at a lower price point (both auctions are currently under the $20 mark!) To get an equally playful and unique look, try the Rebecca Minkoff Morning After Mini Bag ($595), which is guaranteed to help you travel in style!-Kate Mulling

I call God ECCO. It's much more satisfying to call it that. A lot of people accept this and they don't know that they're just talking about God. I finally found a God that was big enough. As the astronomer said to the Minister, My God's astronomical. The Minister said, How can you relate to something so big? The astronomer said, Well, that isn't the problem, your God's too small!
Cosmic Love is absolutely Ruthless and Highly Indifferent: it teaches its lessons whether you like/dislike them or not.
In the province of the mind what one believes to be true, either is true or becomes true within certain limits. These limits are to be found experimentally and experientially.

LEWISTON, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The city of Lewiston has removed 84 people from its general assistance program, 50 of them for welfare fraud, according to Lewiston Mayor Robert Macdonald.
Mayor Macdonald projected the city will save $162 thousand by eliminating those 84 people in a press conference Tuesday morning.
He says the investigation is part of an on-going effort to "clean up" the city.
"We are going to be continuing to do this and weed them out," said Macdonald.
"We're not going to be known as a welfare town anymore. If you want to come here, don't come here for welfare, because if we catch you, we will prosecute you."
According to Lewiston Police Chief Mike Bussiere, those found guilty of welfare fraud could face six months jail time and/or fines.
Sue Charron, Director of Lewiston's Social Services Department, said the city's welfare system has 225 cases.
She said the office suspected cases of fraud when checking on employment documents.
"We have so many people coming in here applying, that they're really stressed out up there," said Mayor Macdonald, referring to the General Assistance office.
"But we had a bit of a lull...at which time, we were able to do this," said Macdonald.
He said the city will continue to investigate cases of welfare fraud, and expects to remove more people.
"Before the summer, it's going to be a much larger number," said Macdonald.

So, here's a little insight to how my mind works. I suppose it's always worked liked this, but I'm not sure if my mind has just aligned with contemporary culture, or if it is being shaped by it. Here's what I mean by that: Right now I'm sitting at my desk at work and I have access to information via three screens – a desktop monitor, my laptop and my iPhone. Throughout the day I receive information from all three – and I push information and content out from all three.
As a result, I'm constantly sifting through signal and noise, exercising my powers of pattern recognition. Often various bits of data and info hit me and bounce off, at other times the right combination clicks into place in unexpected and surprising ways. Last week I experienced something known as Baader-Meinhof phenomenon, also called 'Frequency Illusion" (hat tip to Gitamba Saila-Ngita for cluing me in on the term). B-M is the feeling that something or someone you had previously never heard of before suddenly pops up two or three times in rapid succession in completely unrelated circumstances. This time it was Marina Abomovic, who popped up in Jay Z's Picasso Baby performance art piece among other places.
Sometimes the pieces hang around, as if in a HUD like the one in Minority Report. Eventually I start to pull them all together and it forms an idea or, as in this case, a blog post. Perhaps in this case it might be interesting to deconstruct the post, strip it down to its elements first. Here are the various concepts on my internal HUD:
- I've just started reading Douglas Rushkoff's Present Shock
- Concepts of narrative and storytelling via advertising are of great interest to me
- What would the iconic Apple 1984 ad look like if stripped of its narrative and repurposed using a content format popular now, the GIF?
- How has popular culture mirrored (or driven?) the narrative collapse Rushkoff speaks of vis a vis Orwell's 1984?
- From Apple to Aeon Flux to Big Brother
- Last year Google teamed up with several brands to recreate famous ads from the past.
Rushkoff's book (read Faris Yakob's review), begins with an insightful breakdown of narrative collapse in our modern culture.
Storytelling became an acknowledged cultural value in itself. In front of millions of rapt television viewers, mythologist Joseph Campbell taught PBS's Bill Moyers how stories provide the fundamental architecture for human civilization. These broadcasts on The Power of Myth inspired filmmakers, admen, and management theorists alike to incorporate the tenets of good storytelling into the most basic frameworks.
It's not difficult to read that and nod in agreement as you think about the 1984 spot.
Rushkoff speaks of the main elements of a narrative story arc, first identified by Aristotle and you can see them at work in this spot. Even if you aren't familiar with the Orwell novel, it's pretty clear what is happening. A citizenry enslaved, hypnotized by some sort of evil despot. A lone hero is our only hope. She must escape her pursuers and liberate us from the tyranny of conformity. Just as all hope seems lost, the hero prevails. That the hero of the spot is a physical representation of a computer company is beside the point.
But ironically it is the advent of the personal computer that has certainly sped up the destruction of the traditional narrative. Hyperlinked text, multiple tabs in browsers and social media have all contributed to the shift away from the narrative as we new it towards a more in the moment, real-time engagement culture.
The impact of the novel 1984 is usually seen through the lens of politics or issues concerning personal privacy. But it's a fascinating proxy for culture at large and this narrative transformation Rushkoff speaks of. It's interesting to look at Aeon Flux, originally an animated short series that aired during a program called Liquid Television on MTV in the early 1990s. In Aeon Flux, the eponymous heroine fights for liberty and independence against a totalitarian government in a science-fiction future world. But Aeon Flux also had an unusual narrative kink, as noted in the show's wikipedia entry:
One peculiarity of the early shorts is the violent death of Æon Flux, which occurs in each installment. According to the commentary by Peter Chung in the 2005 DVD release, she dies in every short episode after the initial six part pilot because he never intended to make more episodes, the best solution was to have her keep dying…
It's possible to dismiss this, arguing that in animated series characters often meet violent ends only to appear again in future episodes (see Coyote, Wile E.), but Aeon Flux is different I believe. It followed many of the other hallmarks of traditional storytelling while still being an incredibly innovative show. But by the 90s young audiences were no longer thrown by stories in which the hero died. They'd been playing video games in arcades for more than a decade (the cut scenes from Dragon's Lair come to mind) and home video game console titles would soon see "respawning" enter the lexicon.
As we entered a new millenium, 1984 again entered the cultural mainstream via the reality television show Big Brother – a term derived from the novel which has become a sort of meme itself. With reality television we've now dispensed with most of the traditional narrative structure – backstory, world-building, closure, even the notion of heroes and villains in a traditional sense is gone. We're simply watching people interacting without any real sense of beginning, middle or end. As a person who doesn't watch the show, the sense of 'never-endingness" is heightened by the fact that the show is currently in season 15. At some point, it's not even about the actual individuals on the show, you're simply watch a house full of personas (the bad girl, the jerk, the nice guy…) with occasionally changing visual representations. Rushkoff again:
It's as if the linear narrative structure had been so misused and abused by television's incompetent or manipulative storytellers that it simply stopped working, particularly on younger people who were raised in the more interactive media environment and equipped with defensive technologies.
As I thought of all this in the context of the industry I work in, advertising, it reminded me of Project Re:Brief by Google in which classic old ad campaigns are reimagined for current technologies and sensibilities. We've entered a new phase of storytelling, if that is even the right term. Perhaps un-storytelling is more accurate. GIFS and Vine videos have reduced content to a mere seven seconds, or an endlessly looping three or four seconds. In this environment, what would Apple's 1984 ad have looked like? Not surprisingly GIFs have been created of the ad:
Yes, that's a bit unfair, but you get the point. Without your knowledge of the original commercial, and the Orwell novel, these GIFs would be all but unintelligible. Is it possible to make a GIF or a Vine video that would be an effective communication message for a personal computer? I would imagine so, but when we lose the narrative structure of traditional storytelling we lose something important. We lose myth-making, we often lose context and possibly the power to connect on a human, emotional level.
Ultimately here's what I'm left with: As a marketer, should I be "leaning in" to the post-narrative world in which we currently live, encouraging clients to create smaller, non-linear pieces of content, or should I suggest they go against the grain, and look to create deeper, denser and longer story-driven communications? It's a tough question, and one worth debating.

Lead and manage your group. Enable them to learn skills, enjoy mountain biking and become more independent.
Whether leading, guiding, instructing or training others, CTC's Trail Leader course is the first vital stage to get you going.
The Trail Leader course combines training and assessment into a single package, so your qualification is completed within one course - and there is no membership requirement or other fees either. We will even provide your food and accommodation at our residential venues. Now that is what we call value for money!
CTC Trail Leaders have gained all the fundamental and rounded skills and competencies required of those leading groups of mountain bikers. By achieving this qualification, you will be able to:
Provide fun, engaging and developmental sessions for your participants

Comments about Osprey Kestrel 48 Backpack:
This pack is perfect for short backpack trips or longer if you pack light. Perfect for foreign adventure if you don't like to check baggage. We were able to carry it fully loaded onto a plane and it fit in the overhead bins. Extremely comfortable for long, extended days on the trail. The long side pockets come in very handy, especially for those things that usually get lost in the bottom of your pack. Construction is more than adequate.

Whenever we hear the words "natural" or "eco" in relation to beauty products, we tend to get a little wary. While we've never questioned the quality or effectiveness of earth-friendly skincare, we have been a little skeptical about this kind of makeup. Were there really products that could give us major lashes, truly hide our skin imperfections, and wow us with their intense colors? In the hopes of finding the answers to these queries, we decided to call in makeup artist Erin Lee Smith, an ultra knowledgeable pro who could advise us on these matters. In addition to working on editorials, celebrities, and us (she did all of our makeup for What To Wear, Where!), Smith is also a green beauty maestro! Though she works with all kinds of brands, she really specializes in natural and organic products, so we decided to pick her brain about the earth-friendly items every girl should have in her makeup kit. Read on for all of the Smith-approved necessities and details about these essential products!
Tarte Waterproof Clay Shadow/Liner ($22) in Jade Green, Bronze, and Indigo
Tarte makes some amazing beauty products, so we were delighted to learn that Smith also approves of the brand's newest addition: a waterproof shadow/liner made with Amazonian white clay. Smith likes the multi-tasking product because it can be used in multiple ways. "It's great as an eye shadow base or just a light wash of color on your lids," she says. "It's also really pretty on your lower lash line; it reflects light while giving a hint of defined lash." While you can always opt for basic black or brown, we suggest trying some of the other colors--like Jade Green, Bronze, and Indigo--this spring and summer!
Koh Gen Do Maifanshi Moisture Foundation ($62)
Everyone knows that there are lots of wonderful, natural face powders on the market (both pressed and loose), but tracking down a really fabulous foundation is a much more difficult task. Typically these eco-friendly formulas underwhelm in the performance department: they don't have staying power and their coverage is subpar. But happily Smith's discovered a product that is both virtuous (it's not tested on animals and contains no artificial fragrances or synthetic pigments) and hard working: Koh Gen Do Maifanshi Moisture Foundation. "It has such a beautiful, creamy texture and really sinks into the skin, so your skin looks natural and flawless," she says. Smith also adores how sheer the formula is, and the fact that it can be easily layered for a full-coverage look.
Jane Iredale Active Light Under-Eye Concealer ($25)
We always thought you needed some high-end, scientifically manufactured trickery to cover your under-eye circles, but Smith says that's simply not true. She swears by Jane Iredale's Active Light Under-Eye Concealer and uses it for work and at home. "This is a green version of the YSL Touche Eclat," she says. "It has a similar light-reflecting mineral formula, a convenient click-brush wand, and it comes in a great range of colors." Additionally, this concealer has a very calming formula that's full of natural ingredients--cucumber, white tea extract, and buckwheat wax--making it an excellent pick if your tired, puffy eyes need soothing too!
Alima Pure Luminous Shimmer Eye Shadow ($11) in Gold Dust
The words "highly pigmented" and "natural eye shadow" rarely go together, but for those beauty gurus who crave earth-friendly eye makeup in beautiful, bold colors--you're in luck! Smith uses Alima Pure's Luminous Shimmer Eye Shadows all the time and simply adores them. "They have practically every color you can think of," she says. "I'm in love with Aphrodite, it's a shimmering hazy gold, like the sun kissed your lids, and Nightingale, which is a satin matte denim blue color." There are 49 shades to choose from--and over 100 including the brand's other eye shadow collections--so be sure to check out all of them!
Organic Glam Blush ($49.95) in Pink
The well known, highly respected British brand The Organic Pharmacy also has a line of beauty products called Organic Glam, which Smith raves about. She's particularly fond of their blush and uses it on shoots all the time. "It's the perfect petal pink," she says. "It's pretty sheer, so you can use for a natural look or layer it to create a stronger Brigitte Bardot cheek." Smith also noted that the blush is quite pigmented, which means it goes on your skin as the same color you see in the package. In other words, it's a true pink worth buying!
Couleur Caramel Eyebrow Pencil ($19) in Blonde/Light Brown
"It's hard to find eyebrow pencils in truly neutral shades, but I'm obsessed with this one," Smith says. Though the hue might sound fair, Smith says it's actually a universal color and will define your shape without giving you a deep block of color. "I use this pencil to fill in sparse brows and then add a powder eye shadow on top to add definition and dimension," she says, an excellent tip for those of us who love a bold brow!
Physicians Formula Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin Jumbo Lash Mascara ($9.95)
As much as we love conventional mascaras, their ingredient labels are usually pretty scary and often contain controversial ingredients. But vanity is a powerful, which is why we haven't been able to sacrifice our fat-lash formulas for a non-toxic product--until now. Smith turned us on to Physicians Formula's Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin Jumbo Lash Mascara. "I wear this mascara every day," Smith says. "I love the wand--it separates your lashes perfectly--and the formula never clumps."
100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Sorbet Lip Gloss ($13) in Cherry
"This product is your every day, all-day lip gloss," Smith says. Even better: it's 100% natural and made with fruit pigments, shea butter, honey, and Vitamins C and E! Smith loves how sheer this product is and keeps these glosses--including the Sheer Strawberry Lip Gloss ($13)--on hand at all times.
Zuzu Luxe Lipstick ($18.15) in Dollhouse Pink
Maybe it sounds vapid--okay, it definitely does--but color is everything when it comes to lipstick. While we're all for "pretty" shades (meaning nude or natural pink), we are even more interested in vibrant colors, which is why we were so delighted to hear about Zuzu Luxe. Smith praises their beautiful range of colors, singling out Dollhouse Pink and Starlet as her two favorites. Having tried both we can swear that they perform just as well as our regular lipsticks, plus the formula and shades are simply spot-on!

Danat Dubai Cruises offers two noteworthy cruise options. The large catamaran provides a most untraditional and determinedly showy dining experience. Its superior speed means that instead of the usual Creek circuit you'll find yourself heading out to sea whilst watching the chefs at work. The lunchtime Danat Dubai cruise docks near Jumeirah beach for snorkelling, swimming and boat rides. Alternatively, you could opt to potter gently along the length of the Creek in a more traditional wooden dhow.

The Pessimist, the Cynic, and the Ne'er Do Well
Please….shut up already, you leech, you vampire, you succubus. I can feel you draining all of my optimistic soul with your chronic complaining and pessimism. Yes life is a struggle, I get it. Just stop talking about how miserable your life is and DO something about it.
I have my own issues to contend with. I'm making positive strides forward, then you come along with your black cloud of mope and despair overcasting my day. Fortunately, I have one of those pro golf sized "mental umbrellas" to keep me dry from your gale force tirades of drama. Spare me your relationship episodes, you're not David Duchovny on Californication. I could care less about how your wife emasculates you….wait, what did you call it, "she's assertive and likes wearing the pants" so instead of watching the playoffs Sunday afternoon, you're down at the flea market shopping for discounted trinkets and bootleg romantic comedy dvd's.
The next person to attempt to trample one of my good spirited days with their "cup is almost empty" demeanor, deserves a Rick James to Charlie Murphy open handed slap. Seriously. I'm on a mission. Because your train derailed, you want to plant bombs on my tracks? If life is sooooo bad, give up. Stop trying. Kill yourself. More food for us. Still here? Pussy…or is it that your life isn't that bad afterall huh?
The next step isn't so easy. Depressing people travel in packs, infecting others like a virus adding to the collective. You have got to break away from the other crabs if you want to change your mindset. And don't think they won't notice. "why'd you stop calling? oh, you too good to hang with us now? Hey I just wrecked my car for the 3rd time can I get a ride? Hey girl, so and so was talking about you. I just wanted to let you know. What's up man, I just quit my bullshit job. Naw, I ain't got nothing lined up just yet tho…mind if I hang out for a few days?"
Good luck escaping. If you did manage to escape, your circle is extremely smaller now isn't it? Google+ won't be happy (lol if you don't get that it's ok, the joke wasn't for you).
I had an intellectual discussion with a good friend of mine last night until 3am. It's amazing what conversations stem from Grand Marnier and blue mist hookahs….I digress, where was I? One topic involved goals, aspirations, and the means to reach them. Have you met yours? what prevented you? what's stopping you now? At what point do you concede? the conclusion obviously, is that the infrastructure of any goal you set forth is planning. Then it hit me like a ton a bricks. 35-40% of the people I knew, didn't plan for shit. Most of them are already out of my life, the few remaining handful will probably become case studies for this blog in the near future.
It's 2012 people. time to become extremely independent and get off the teat. Bad things will happen soon. PLAN AHEAD.(damn have I been infected by the cynics?) Time to develop some survivalist skills just in case of some post apocalyptic scenario. I recommend the three H's. Hunting, Horticulture and Whoring…yes yes I know, I know. It was just fun to say.
Through playing with y'all.

Submission School determines child lunch unhealth, Send home bill instead-> 3
halfEvilTech writes: A North Carolina mom is irate after her four-year-old daughter returned home late last month with an uneaten lunch the mother had packed for the girl earlier that day. But she wasn't mad because the daughter decided to go on a hunger strike. Instead, the reason the daughter didn't eat her lunch is because someone at the school determined the lunch wasn't healthy enough and sent it back home. What was wrong with the lunch? That's still a head-scratcher because it didn't contain anything egregious: a turkey and cheese sandwich, banana, potato chips, and apple juice. But for the inspector on hand that day, it didn't meet the healthy requirements.

Operators at Oyster Creek Generating Station responded quickly Monday morning when electrical service coming in to the station was temporarily disrupted. The reactor was taken offline and the plant performed as designed.
Forked River, New Jersey – Operators at Oyster Creek Generating Station responded quickly Monday morning when electrical service coming in to the station was temporarily disrupted. The reactor was taken offline and the plant performed as designed.
As a result, an Unusual Event was declared at 3:41 a.m. ET and then terminated at 5:38 a.m. ET, after Jersey Central Power & Light crews corrected the issue.
An unusual event is the lowest of four Nuclear Regulatory Commission emergency classifications. Exelon Generation personnel notified all appropriate federal, state and local government officials.
During the grid disturbance, two diesel-powered generators supplied electrical power to key plant components. These generators are one of several methods of providing backup power to the station when necessary.
Oyster Creek is located about 60 miles east of Philadelphia in Ocean County, New Jersey. The plant produces 636 net megawatts of electricity at full power, enough electricity to supply 600,000 typical homes, the equivalent to all homes in Monmouth and Ocean counties combined. In addition, plant workers, through their payrolls, contribute more than $96 million to New Jersey's economy.
Exelon Corporation (NYSE:EXC) is the nation's leading competitive energy provider, with approximately $33 billion in annual revenues. Headquartered in Chicago, Exelon has operations and business activities in 47 states, the District of Columbia and Canada. Exelon is the largest competitive U.S. power generator, with approximately 35,000 megawatts of owned capacity comprising one of the nation's cleanest and lowest-cost power generation fleets. The company's Constellation business unit provides energy products and services to approximately 100,000 business and public sector customers and approximately 1 million residential customers. Exelon's utilities deliver electricity and natural gas to more than 6.6 million customers in central Maryland (BGE), northern Illinois (ComEd) and southeastern Pennsylvania (PECO).

Allen-Morrison Improvements
The former Allen-Morrison property, located in the Fort Hill neighborhood adjacent to Lynchburg Grows and the City Stadium Complex is a bit nearer to the next step in its evolution from factory to park. The former sign-making industrial site was abandoned in 1996, and the City of Lynchburg assumed ownership through eminent domain in April of 2003. Because of its proximity to the City Stadium Complex, the former Allen-Morrison property was identified as the site of a future park in the City's Comprehensive Plan. Since the City of Lynchburg assumed ownership, the site has been managed primarily by the Parks and Recreation Department. Environmental concerns have been addressed through ongoing agreements with the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (VDEQ) the state agency responsible for Brownfields management.

A Grab Bag of Holiday Spirits
The 21th Century has been kind to lovers of Irish and Scotch whiskies. Like the re-emergence of single malt Scotch and small-batch Bourbons, there has been a renaissance in Irish distilling, including a return to pot-still whiskies and single malts, and a variety of exotic cask finishes, although the definitions of whiskey types are a touch looser than in Scotland--like so many other things, particularly late at night. more >>

Take a classic example of a driver who is running late for an appointment and another driver unexpectedly cuts him off, or how about when another driver is stuck behind a slow moving vehicle with no immediate way of getting around. If you can relate with these themes then you may have experienced a sense of frustration for the posed scenario. If you indeed had these experiences and have not acted on them by rolling down the window and yelled at the other driver then you, like most everyone else, is dutifully practicing automatic emotion regulation and emotion regulation (Mauss, Bunge & Gross, 2007).
Now, think of an instance when someone leaves decorum: a U.S. congressman yells at the U.S. President during a speech, or a musician who during an award event takes the microphone from the award winner to make a point, or a tennis player angrily disagreeing with the referee during a match.
As it turns out people have not one but two regulating systems to help control behavior (Mauss et al., 2007). Automatic regulation system, as the name suggests, occurs automatically, such as when children are being raised and told not to cry. Eventually the child regulates his emotions before they kick in. What about the second regulation system–you ask? Mauss et al., 2007 note that if the first system, for some reason, does not regulate and people have an outburst then we can mitigate the action. Emotion regulation itself, the authors note, occurs by reducing the intensity or duration of the outburst. As it turns out though, sometimes even two regulating systems are not enough. If that is the case then an apology may be in place.

The ribs look divine! Do you serve the traditional potato salad and baked beans with them, or do you opt for something a little more "exciting?" Thanks for sharing. I think this will be our Father's Day entre' for tomorrow.

I have to add our "manly" household favorite. Your lasagna recipe is my husband's go-to special occasion request.

Nice roundup, Steph! Hope you're having fun at the water park and will still have your hearing when you get back home. ;-)
We love bacon cheese chicken, but I didn't know you'd made it in the crockpot. Must check that out for sure! Hubby is away this Father's Day, but I'm wondering if I should make some and take it to my dad. He'd probably love me even more than he does now. LOL

Once charging begins, the display may be blank for up to two minutes before one of the low-battery images appears.
Check USB connections
Connect iPod nano to a USB port that is built into the computer instead of the keyboard or an external USB hub.

- Tap Reset, or tap Cancel if you change your mind.
- Tap your language, then tap Done.
If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into a working electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting the iPod while it is connected to power.
Third-party software conflicts
Some third-party software (such as security and anti-virus software, or webcam drivers) may prevent iTunes from recognizing your iPod nano. You may have to update the third-party software, adjust the software settings, or temporarily disable the software. Windows users should refer to iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues for guidance.

CANTON - They are not Amish, but the Douglass family lives a lot like the Amish do. For instance, cutting huge chunks of ice out of a nearby pond is just another winter chore that allows the family of six to live off the grid of electricity and oil consumption.
Instead of using a refrigerator, which is one of the largest users of energy in the home, this method of storing the ice in a sawdust bunker keeps their food chilly all summer long. This enables them to have refrigeration at no cost at all to the Douglass family and their Amish neighbors, who share the homestead.
From 9 a.m. on on Saturday interested people can spend time on a completely off-the-grid, non-electric homestead, that uses horses and human power as well as a water-pumping windmill, and learn more about the time-honored skill of hand-cutting ice from a pond for a root cellar or icebox storage.
If the weather is not agreeable for this free work party event it may be postponed, but anyone who signs up will receive the rain date information.
This is a family-friendly event and all ages, skill levels and abilities are welcome to participate. Bring a bag lunch if you like, though homemade soup will be provided.
If you wish to learn the skill of hand-sawing, retrieval, and proper storage, it is best if you can commit to the full day, but not necessary. Appropriately dress for the weather and rugged, working conditions is suggested.
This event is near Canton, and is free and open to the public. An RSVP is necessary for the exact address. To register please email email@example.com or call 315-347-4223 and note the attendee names, home and cell numbers and email contact information.
Confirmation and location will generally be sent within 24 hours. Look for more fun and educational upcoming events in the spring line-up of Rural Skills Workshops from the Local Living Venture at www.SustainableLivingProject.net and at the upcoming Local Living Festival on April 27.
