Defining Mixed
These groups are all mixed in their heritage.
The numbers
Intermarriage among people of different races is increasingly common. In 1980, just 7% of all marriages in the U.S. were between spouses of a different race or ethnicity. In 2010, that share has doubled to 15% of all new marriages in the U.S. Hispanics (26%) and Asians (28%) were most likely to "marry out," compared with 9% of whites and 17% of blacks. – Pew Research
Marrying Out
If two people of mixed heritage marry, does Pew Research count that as an intermarriage?

Parenting and internalised racism
...in our efforts to compensate for racism, we socialise children into injustice, compliance and complicity and instil a sense of inferiority in them. In doing so we may limit children's scope to be themselves. We may reduce our capacity to respond to them with compassion and kindness. We may attend to stereotypes of what our children could be or could be seen as, rather than attending to them as unique persons. In a nutshell, we may contribute to racism's self-fulfilling prophecies, perpetuate racial inequalities and more worryingly, may increase their risk of psychological distress.

"When I was little, I didn't have one that looked like me, so I couldn't connect with her in that way. But getting to visit the Mattel offices and see Barbie's vision for the future…I was able to see how they plan to diversify, broadening the horizons and the image of Barbie, and make it more, you know, open. I left the office feeling it was definitely something I wanted to be a part of."

Memorial Day weekend will find my family and I memorializing our time in Minnesota as we close this chapter of our lives and start the Colorado one. It's exciting. It's terrifying. The day I found out (Friday) I spent the entire afternoon laying in my bed weeping and watching a Call the Midwife marathon. (If you ever feel like your life is bad try watching a destitute British prostitute from the 1950′s have a baby with no meds, get sent to a convent and then have her baby taken away for adoption. Oh, and did I mention the girl is 15? There are problems and then there are Problems. But don't let that scare you off the show – it's as beautiful as it is gritty! Lots of babies! Coming out of very anatomically correct places! See – you totally want to watch this now!) Moving makes me sad. Babies make me happy. Both make me cry! There was a lot of crying Friday. My kids thought I'd lost my mind. And I kinda had.
I'm in the mourning phase of moving. Like I explained to my ecstatic-to-have-a-new-job husband, it's not that I'm not excited or happy, it's just that first I need to be sad about all the amazing, wonderful, one-of-a-kind people we're leaving behind. We made friends that are like family to us and, let's be honest, leaving all my Gym Buddies/Turbo Buddies is going to be wrenching. It's so bad, I can't even think about it right now without getting slightly hysterical. These girls have got me through some seriously crazy stuff and I love them all like sisters.
Yet I know I'll love Colorado when I get there. And I know this because I've loved every place I've ever lived (Okay, with the exception of west Philadelphia. Ugh.) and that's been a lot of places. Because I'm a mover. And my husband's a mover. After reading through all the replies on Facebook to my announcement I've decided that people are either movers or stayers. The latter group has stayed in one place for most of their lives and can't imagine why anyone would want to leave such a great thing. The former never stay in any place long and can't imagine why anyone would want to stay in one spot when there are so many great things to be seen. And there's nothing wrong with being a Mover or a Stayer. But, and I'm totally over generalizing here, it seems as if you're either one or the other. Even if you're a mover who ended up staying somewhere, you still have that attitude of "Wouldn't it be fun to go…" And if you're a stayer who got moved around a lot, you still feel that inexorable pull towards home. Maybe that's the main difference: Stayers have a physical home. Movers have more of a conceptual home. One is tied to geography while the other is tied to a feeling. Both are good. Both are bad. Both have a hard time understanding each other, frankly.
But all of that is neither here nor there. The real issue at hand is that my husband's first day of work is the day after Memorial Day which means we have THREE WEEKS to get all our crap in a van, do a quick headcount of the kids and head for the hills. It's fast. It's stressing me out. This blog is going to suffer. Sorry, I really wish I could keep all my balls in the air but at the moment I'm about to be crushed by one very huge, immediately pressing circus ball: The Move. I can't think about anything else. All my spare anxiety has been relocated from my thighs to finding a good school district for my kids. (Which is probably a good thing, actually.) I'm going to do my best but I just wanted to warn you in advance. There might be silence. There might be an onslaught of crazy. There might be panic attacks and emotional eating and overly personal confessions. Or it might all go totally smoothly and I'll look like a dork for worrying so much. I don't know.
All I do know is that I've got to get out of bed, stop crying and get to work.
Saturday morning was a good way to do that. Gym Buddy Allison picked me up bright and early for the Run or Dye race we'd signed up for together months ago. Even though I've stressed myself into a nasty cold, I wasn't going to let her down and miss our last race together. It was a riot. We got colored powder dumped all over us.
We froze our tushies off (30 degrees. IN MAY. It's like Minnesota is trying to make me move.).
We may have bogarted the start line after we waited in the cold for an hour and 20 minutes and still couldn't even see the start line. (Seriously, this race was SO poorly organized that I don't even feel the tiniest bit bad for sneaking around the barriers and dropping into the pack like a paparazzo after Kate Middleton.)
We ran. We took a bunch of pictures (the whole point anyhow right?).
And then we added an extra mile to our run because Allison's car was over its time limit on the parking meter so we couldn't wait for the shuttle or else she'd end up with a $100 fine for a race souvenir.
Then we did this:
That was a well-earned pedi!
Lastly, Allison told me she learned the "cups" song from Pitch Perfect ("You're Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone" by Anna Kendrick), using the cup and everything! So when it came on the radio, it seemed fittingly bittersweet. And I'm not going to lie: I had tears in my eyes listening to her sing it.
I am going to miss you when you're gone. So so hard.
So don't be shy, tell me your Number (of moves): are you a Mover or a Stayer? What's your favorite place you've ever lived? Have you got in on the color run trend yet? What did you think? Lastly, if anyone has any advice for me on where to live in the west Denver metro area, pleeeeease tell me!
One last q: Should we bring the cat with us? We love her to death and I'd never leave her except that it appears we are going to have to live in corporate housing (that doesn't allow pets) for a few months and I'm worried that taking her on an 18-hour car ride, dropping her at a pet sitter and then relocating her to our new house will be altogether too traumatic for her. (Also, like that I'm worrying about this over my cat but not my kids? My kids are awesomely resilient. My cat is brittle.) UPDATE: A couple of people thought this means I'm considering abandoning our cat or dumping her at a shelter. We would never do that – she is part of the family 100%. I was just concerned that all the moving would be too traumatic for her but it seems from the comments it seems that she'll probably do fine. If anyone has ideas for what to do with her while we are living in corporate housing for three (ish) months that would be great.

We live in a world where "enough" is never enough. Whether we realize it or not, there is a constant pull on our hearts toward materialism and covetousness.
But it's not just adults who fight these battles. Our children are bombarded with the offer of more. They need more friends on Facebook. More style in their wardrobe. More entertainment. More money. More fun. More…of everything.
Of course, more isn't always bad. But it is harmful if we can't be satisfied without it.
In today's materialistic society, however, it's not difficult to see why our kids struggle with contentment. Children ages two to five see more than forty thousand commercials on television a year. No wonder they need more. (more…)

Egypt to Hezbollah: We'll Strike Back if You Attack Us
Asharq al-Awsat: Hezbollah agent told Egyptian interrogators cell plotted attacks on Israeli targets.
Egypt relayed a scathing message to Hezbollah, demanding that the Lebanon-based Shi'ite organization publicly vow to respect Egypt's sovereign territory and to disclose specific details of its clandestine activities inside the country, the editor of the Egyptian newspaper A-Shuruk revealed Monday in an interview to Al-Arabiya television.
The Cairo government threatened to act against Hezbollah if the group does not meet its demands. Egypt passed the message along to the Lebanese government and not directly to Hezbollah, according to the editor, Abd el-Azim Hamad.
A-Shuruk was the first publication to report on the Israeli air strikes against weapons smugglers in Sudan. Hamad said that Egypt's demand that Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah use caution in his words and refrain from attacking targets inside Egypt was unequivocal.
A Hezbollah agent arrested in Egypt last week told investigators his cell was planning attacks on Israeli targets to avenge the killing of terrorist mastermind Imad Mughniyeh, the pan-Arab daily Asharq al-Awsat reported Monday.
Sami Shehab, the Hezbollah operative, said his cell surveilled tourist sites in Taba, Dahab and Sharm el-Sheikh and tracked Israeli ships passing through the Suez Canal, according to the newspaper.
Shehab was one of 49 alleged Hezbollah agents arrested by Egypt last week on suspicion of planning attacks aimed at destabilizing the country.
Egyptian police are tracking down 13 members of an alleged Hezbollah cell believed to be hiding out with Bedouins in the Sinai peninsula, a security official said Monday.
The men are thought to be 10 Lebanese and three Sudanese - part of a group of 49 members of an alleged Hezbollah cell that the government announced is plotting to attack Egyptian institutions and Israeli tourists.
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media, said the men had taken shelter in the central Sinai town of al-Nakhl.
Mughniyeh, Hezbollah's second-in-command, was assassinated in a February 2008 car bombing in Damascus. Hezbollah blames Israel for the killing, and has threatened to carry out attacks to avenge it. Israel denies involvement in the assassination.
Nasrallah, meanwhile, has rejected Egyptian the accusations but confirmed over the weekend that it had dispatched an operative to Egypt - a rare acknowledgment that the Lebanese militant group was operating in another Arab country.
Nasrallah said Shehab was arrested Nov. 19 along with other Egyptian and Palestinian citizens on charges of smuggling arms and equipment to Gaza through the Egyptian border.
Late Sunday, Egypt's attorney general added espionage to the charges against 49 alleged Hezbollah agents.
Abdel-Meguid Mahmoud told Egypt's state run news agency MENA that the alleged agents, including Lebanese, Palestinian, Egyptian and Sudanese nationals, have been spying for a foreign group intending to carry out terrorist attacks in Egypt.
Members of the Hezbollah cell were said to have bought ingredients to make explosive devices at a Cairo market, which they smuggled into the Gaza Strip and Israel along with terrorists, according to reports in Arab press.
Shehab, a Lebanese national, was apparently Hezbollah's main operative in Egypt. According to reports, he smuggled arms into Gaza and often presented himself as a Palestinian residing in Syria.
He fought against Israel Defense Forces soldiers in southern Lebanon, according to the Al Hayat daily, and took on intelligence and logistical assignments after being wounded in fighting.
In his first comments on the affair, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak told Lebanon's prime minister in a phone call on Sunday that Egypt "will not allow anyone to violate its borders or destabilize the country."

This multi-act show features original interpretations of material from Harry Smith's Anthology of American Folk Music. This concert will be held in Harry's place of birth, Portland Oregon, and will serve as a proper tribute to one of the most important creative minds in history.
The Anthology of American Folk Music was put together by Harry Smith for Folkways music and was originally issued in 1952 in three volumes of 2 LPs each, with a total of 84 tracks collected from old records. It is said that this collection played a seminal role in the folk music revival of the late 1950s and early 1960s, influencing and inspiring the generation of Bob Dylan and Joan Baez. Smith stated that he wanted to create a cultural change with music, and he did. His vision represented not a limited traditionalist point of view based on maintaining the status quo and retaining songs the way they were then. Smith believed in the eternal progression and morphing of the songs themselves. The songs were archetype forms to build upon, not hold up behind bars in a museum.
It is like looking back in time, sort of like the Hubble telescope, only we are looking at images from our own human heritage, and perhaps ourselves. a "genetic code" for modern music.Map & Directions

LAS VEGAS — Kenosha's Laura Marie Kaeppeler sang her way to victory Tuesday night at the Miss America pageant.
The classical vocalist, who is the reigning Miss Wisconsin, edged 17 other women in her preliminary group that competed in the first of three rounds of talent competitions.
Kaeppeler, 23, who began voice studies in the fourth grade and majored in vocal performance at Carthage College, is the first Miss Wisconsin to win a preliminary talent award since Tina Marie Sauerhammer of Green Bay won the award with a classical cello solo in 2003.
However, it was another Wisconsin contestant who won a Miss America preliminary talent award that inspired Kaeppeler to sing "Il Bacio" ("The Kiss Waltz)" by Italian composer Luigi Arditi.
Prior to winning the Miss Wisconsin crown on June 18 in Oshkosh, she took vocal lessons from Miss Wisconsin 1999, Mary-Louise Kurey. Coincidently, the Brookfield woman used the same operatic song to win a preliminary talent award and later placed among the 10 finalists.
Kaeppeler is seeking to become the second Wisconsin contestant to win the Miss America crown. In 1972, Terry Anne Meeuwsen of DePere was named Miss America 1973.
Joining Kaeppeler as a preliminary winner Tuesday night was Miss Utah, Danice Elizabeth Olsen, 21, of Tooele, Utah, who won the preliminary swimsuit prize after posing in a red two-piece suit. She wins a $1,000 scholarship while Kaeppeler earned a $2,000 talent scholarship.
Those winning preliminary awards are not guaranteed a place among the 15 semifinalists; however, it is a strong indicator they are scoring well, especially the talent winners as talent is worth 35 percent of the overall score.
Kaeppeler will answer a question on stage tonight during the second round of preliminary competitions, and will compete in preliminary swimsuit on Thursday evening.
The only Kenosha County women to compete in the Miss America pageant:
— Christina Anna Thompson of Pleasant Prairie in 2008, who placed among the eight finalists.
— Joya Josephine Zamora of Kenosha in 2000, who won a non-finalist talent award.
— Kimberly Totdahl of Racine in 1989. She was the only Miss Kenosha to have won the Miss Wisconsin crown.
Miss America 2012 will be crowned at the conclusion of the pageant telecast at 8 p.m. Saturday on ABC.

My self-summary
Write a little about yourself. Just a paragraph will do.
I'm not the best when it comes to trying to explain myself in a profile, but bear with me. I have an easy going and goofy personality and I like to make other people laugh. I'm down to earth and mellow. I like having a good time and I like others around me to have a good time. I'm very non-judgmental and I respect different opinions and beliefs. I love sports. My teams are the Angels, Lakers, and Florida State (for college sports). I'm also a fan of horse racing and love going to the track to watch the races. You should give it a try sometime. I'm open to trying new things. I'm not the best dancer (not good at all haha), but I'm always willing to give it a try
What I'm doing with my life
Don't overthink this one; tell us what you're doing day-to-day.
I work an 8-5 job and I love the people I work with. I'm trying to save to eventually buy a house.
I'm really good at
Go on, brag a little (or a lot). We won't judge.
Treating people with respect and remembering things that no one else can remember. I also know a bunch of useless sports facts. I might know more than you know about your team.
The first things people usually notice about me
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
You tell me
Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
Help your potential matches find common interests.
Pretty much all music. Pulp Fiction, Fight Club, Big Lebowski and many more. Dexter is awesome.
The six things I could never do without
Think outside the box. Sometimes the little things can say a lot.
Depends on the day
I spend a lot of time thinking about
Global warming, lunch, or your next vacation… it's all fair game.
What I can do to keep improving in life.
On a typical Friday night I am
Netflix and takeout, or getting your party on — how do you let loose?
Going out to bars, watching sports, or staying in and relaxing
The most private thing I'm willing to admit
I'm an empty essay… fill me out!
I'm on a dating website.
You should message me if
Offer a few tips to help matches win you over.
You want to get to know me and go out and have a good time. If you like horse racing and going to the track it's a huge plus.

Fall is in the air, and that means jeans and sweaters, pumpkins and hayrides, but most of all it means chili. It is time for the Animals Best Friends annual Chili Supper and Bingo Night. This is one of our most popular fundraisers, and volunteers work hard each year to make sure it doesn't disappoint.
Fall is in the air, and that means jeans and sweaters, pumpkins and hayrides, but most of all it means chili. It is time for the Animals Best Friends annual Chili Supper and Bingo Night. This is one of our most popular fundraisers, and volunteers work hard each year to make sure it doesn't disappoint.
This fun-filled event will be held this Saturday at St. Mary's Catholic Church, 600 N. Liberty, Independence. For $7, guests can enjoy a bowl of chili, crackers, drink and dessert and receive one bingo card. Additional bingo cards may be purchased for $1 each. Raffles will be going on throughout the evening, with tickets available for $1 each. We will start serving our guests at 6 p.m. and the Bingo/Raffles begin at 7 p.m.
This event, like all ABF fundraisers, helps us keep our rescue facility going so we can place kids like Butterscotch. Butterscotch is a 4-year-old domestic medium-haired cat. He has beautiful orange and white markings and a little brown spot on his nose. He is playful and very loving and as adult cats go, he would make a great pet. He hasn't been around infants, but would do fine around older children. If you are looking for a cat and think Butterscotch might be a good fit, please go to our website at www.animalsbestfriends.org and complete an application.
In the meantime, bring yourself, your friends and your appetite to the ABF Chili Supper and Bingo night this Saturday and enjoy supporting our homeless animals.

When Top Shanghai first opened back in the day, their food was amazing! I didn't even mind the super insanely long wait. The past 3 times I've tried to go there, it was a crazy zoo! I think it was a relatively quiet Monday night, but the place was packed as usual. I took a number and waited patiently. There was no one in line with me at all. I saw 2 tables of 4 finishing up and after the extremely rude waitress told me that she didn't know how long the wait would be, I just assumed I'd be the next one for one of those tables. But no, someone "with a reservation" got those tables. After another 10 minutes, she still couldn't tell me how long. It was ridiculous! Then by the time the next party arrived, it was clear that they too didn't have a reservation, but got seated before me! Did I miss the passing of some kind of money between her and the waitress? Alternatively instead of taking wishy washy reservations, they should just seat in order of arrival, and know how long the wait is and communicate that to their customers, rather than be snotty about it. I agree with a previous post that they shouldn't be called Top anything. You're better off going to Shanghai House or Shanghai River. The food and service is way better!
The best Shanghai food around, and I live in Burnaby just to go to this restaurant. If you like spicy food, they have a large selection of food that would most likely fall into your liking. Personally, I enjoy their hot and sour soup, the large is actually really large! If you can speak canto or mando, you will have no trouble speaking with them.
Food: ordered a variety of dishes and some were good and some were on the not so good side. There was a soup not translated (the first on the menu) and it was just vinegary and nothing special. Drunk chicken was good, pan fried buns were overly doughy and not enough meat, shanghai noodles were good, special fried rice was interesting with the sauce on top so not bad, deep fried rice with sweet and sour sauce was disgusting (looked like manufactured bright red nuclear goop), beef with onions was okay and ribs with honey were good. There was no complimentary dessert at the end of the meal.
Service: Absent and it was difficult to flag someone down. Long line ups but since we had a reservation, we didn't have to wait. After some spilled tea, a waitress did change the overly large plates that were making the table cramped and difficult to maneuver. We were given hard wooden stools as they ran out of chairs. Staff were terrible at directing people at the door - throngs of people just stood in the doorway making a cramped restaurant even worse.
Value: Large portions but too bad the taste was missing. Again, no complimentary dessert that other restaurants offer.
Ambiance: Cramped. We had our chairs pushed several times. To be honest, I've been at worse hole in the wall joints with more space than this place.
Overall, I would never return to this place as there are other Shanghainese restaurants with far superior food and service in Richmond. Definitely not the top as the name suggests. Hasta la vista Top Shanghai!
Over an hour to get all of our food. They took our tea pot away half way through lunch to refill it. Or at least I thought that's what they were doing. It never came back. Should have sent out search and rescue. No one really came by our table at all over the course of a couple of hours.
Beware, when it come to paying the bill, ALL THEY CAN FOCUS ON IS THE TIP. When I said I wasn't a going to leave a tip, they suddenly showed up at our table. Finally, some service. Oh wait, it was only to ask for a tip again. When I told him about our problems, all I got I was a half hearted, "we're busy". No apology, no real explanation, nothing. When he figured out that he was t getting a tip, he gave me THE FINGER. Yes, a very classy person. Wonder if he learned that in ESL. Oh wellie sure they have enough business without me ever returning. But if you look at other review sites, their sucky service is well noted.
You can find other places with just as good food but with much better service. Please let this place die.
This restaurant is located in the Save on Foods mall, and has plenty of free parking, which is not so easy to find in Richmond. There were only 2 of us, and after waiting about 10 mins we were asked to share a table with 3 other small parties. It wasn't something we'd normally do but since we were hungry we sat down. We got handed an order sheet written only in Chinese...neither of us read Chinese but the servers were all so busy we did our best to order according to the menu. Our food arrived fairly quickly. The juicy buns were good, only one of them had broken and leaked out the juicy goodness. The Chinese donuts were disappointing, very small and not too fresh tasting. The onion pancake was really oily, and you only get one. We also ordered the vegetarian pastry just to try it. They forgot our order, but the waiter was polite when we told them and promptly told the kitchen. When they arrived however, they looked neither vegetarian nor pastry like. They were fried dumplings filled with what looked like crumbled meat and bits of veggies. On closer inspection, we decided that it was probably some sort of fake meat. Not something I'd try again.
Besides the juicy buns, the rest of the dishes were nothing special. The closeness of the tables and lack of English made me uncomfortable enough to probably not return. There are other Shanghai restaurants around I'd rather spend my money on.
Top Shanghai is my favorite Shanghainese restaurant in the lower mainland by far.
The restaurant is not elegant or high-end, and you shouldn't come and expect it to be. The place is in a small strip mall on no.3 road, so it's quite cramped. The doorway doesn't have a lot of room, so often people are crammed at the entrance trying to get a seat. The place is ALWAYS packed and noisy any time I go, but you won't hear me complaining. It's no different than most Chinese restaurants.
If you're going to Top Shanghai, go for the food and only the food. The steamed juicy buns are unbelievably good. I'm from Shanghai, and only at one place in Shanghai have I had better. Other favorite dishes are Szechuan beef noodle soup, fried rice with dried scallops and egg whites, crispy chicken in soy sauce, crispy rice with soup on top.. I could go on and on. If you're interested in trying something very different, I'd recommend the cold cut mutton. It may be an acquired taste, but it won't be like any western methods of cooking lamb you've tried. Everything is also really cheap! It's so much better value (and taste) than Shanghai River without being pretentious.
The service at the restaurant really isn't horrible. The waitresses are just overworked due to the constant busy volume, but I've never seen them be rude. Ordering in Mandarin / Cantonese / Shanghainese will probably help a bit for them to get your orders right or get the bill to you faster, but even in English I've never had any real problems there. Table sharing is sometimes necessary unless you always go with large groups, but they don't force you to share a table. If you don't want to, then they will let you wait until a smaller table frees up.
It's a great restaurant and there's good reason it's always so packed. Try going at non-peak times if you're trying it for the first time.
The food at Top Shanghai is quite good. I loved their potstickers and soup buns. The crispy rice was very tasty too.
But the service is weak, even by the lower standards I use when dining at chinese restaurants (its a truly rare chinese restaurant that boasts excellent service).
This place is very busy (and noisy), and if you show up without reservations, be prepared for a long wait. They're good, but not so good, that it's worth waiting 45-60 minutes for a table.
We have been here quite a few times and each time this place is packed! If you don't make a reservation you can expect to wait several hours so you might as well eat somewhere else.
The service is slow and probably due to the fact that they are under staffed. However the food is good and the prices are reasonable. This is one of the reasons why it's so packed all the time and why I frequent this place more often than not.
This is one of the better Shanghai restaurants to eat in Richmond.
I've eaten at Top Shanghai twice and both times, the food was fantastic. I love their juicy pork dumpling. I like how they put thin slices of daikon underneath the juicy buns, so the dumplings don't break when you picked them up.
After reading all the old reviews, I was not expecting good service at all. I just went for the food as I was craving xiao long bao. Surprisely, the service was good.
I didn't rate the ambiance high because I didn't like how the restaurant had cramped all the round tables together so closely. There was no square tables at all to seat 2 to 4 people. Overall, the restaurant is quite clean as well as their washroom.
Will return for their xiao long bao.
Not sure about the other reviews for this place but IMHO this is probably the best for Shanghainese as you can get ! Top notch for Siu Loong Bau and crazy busy on weekends for lunch. Prepare to wait if you're going for lunch or make a reservation. Food is excellent, service and ambience is decent !
Great food...not the best (Cause I've been to China/TW/HK, and I've really experienced the best). But very good compared to other shanghainese restaurants in the lower mainland.
All their dishes are fairly decent, and you can't go wrong with their signatures.
Biggest downside here is the service and ambiance...the actual service once you get a seat isn't bad...but its the organization while waiting for a seat that is horrible. Before you get a seat, you have to fight over the other dozens of people trying to budge in line. If you go during off peak hours though, this won't be an issue.
The Ambiance...well...its cramped...its very loud...you get the idea...
Overall worth it for the food!
I came here for dinner on a Friday night with 2 of my girlfriends. We had a reservation but we still had to wait about 20 minutes or so.
The restaurant is super busy and they try to fit as many tables in the restaurant as possible. There's actually a table right by the entrance/waiting area so whoever walks by could easily brush against the person sitting there. I felt bad for the people sitting at that table. We didn't get that table, but we got the table closest to the bathroom. Seating wise, it's very cramped and I felt uncomfortable as the walking paths are very narrow.
Service was typical of a busy chinese restaurant, but the wait staff is a bit cocky IMO. When we asked them for recommendations, they made a lot of sarcastic comments.
Despite the bad service and uncomfortable seating, the food is really good which is why the restaurant is so busy. They have a wide variety of unique dishes and the portions are quite big. We ordered 3 dishes and we had leftovers. Special mention to their Xiao Long Baos which is one of the best I've had.
Would I come back? I am torn. Their food is good but everything else sucks. Maybe I'll do takeout.
Food: Had Tan Tan Noodles, which tastes like they got some peanut butter, thinned it out with some water, and then put it on top of some noodles as a sauce. Not exactly tasty. Also had Red Bean Paste Steamed Buns, could taste that they were frozen before (i.e. not fresh) as bun was hard and chewy and middle was still a bit cold. Onion pancake was a so greasy that there was actually a pool of oil collecting in the middle of the pancake visible as the dish was put on our table. Pancake texture was also off, chewy like rubber.
Service: none, not even when you walk in: no one asks you if you want a table and for how many. Bad even for a Chinese restaurant of this kind.
Value: prices are ok but not really worth it for the quality or the portions.
Ambiance: maybe the best thing about this restaurant but that's not saying much. Place is cramped. Diners in small groups frequently have to share one big table with other small group diners.
Not returning and not recommended.
I've been to both the Shanghai River and Top Shanghai--I would not return to Shanghai River unless I had to because of the pretense that SR puts on (as a high-end establishment) and makes their customers pay for more than the bill--customers have to suffer their service with attitude and all-round poor service.
Top Shanghai does not purport to be fancy. You will find here delicious food and "efficient'" service, at good prices. We've never found service to be rude, but rather customers who just because they are in a high-volume inexpensive restaurant, they treat the servers in a certain manner.
The unfortunate part about Top Shanghai is that they have VERY FEW 2-person tables. Most likely you will need to share tables, or prepare to wait! This restaurant may not be for everyone, but there nothing wrong with their food or service.
This place is always packed and even when you do make reservations during the weekend, you're still probably going to wait 15-20min for your table.
FOOD: The food is really good and authentic here, we always order the crab with soybeans and rice cakes, the shanghai dumplings, the drunken chicken, and their soups are really good too.
SERVICE: Unfortunately, this IS a chinese restaurant, so the service can be very poor, and the servers can be even worse at this restaurant.
VALUE: GREAT value for your money, we usually have about 8-9 people when we go here and it can be under $150 and that's including ordering crab.
AMBIANCE: The restaurant is not huge, but it's very cramped b/c they maximize the space they have by having way too many tables and chairs, and their entrance is really tight.
We come here regularly, b/c they have great food at a great price, despite the bad service. The servers know us now and they treat us o.k.
I've been to this place many times. Usually it involves a REALLY LONG WAIT and them rushing you to leave.
I think it servers the best Shanghai food in Vancouver but I think it involves a lot of MSG. There were over 500 unique food items to choose from the menu.
The service usually sucks - no body tries to greet you when you stand at the door, no one taking orders or bills or what-so-ever. Until one month ago there was a dramatic change to that. Suddenly they were all polite and stuff, I don't know why but it certainly is a good thing if they keep it that way.
On November 12, 2008, at 1:30pm I went to go buy take out food from the Top Shanghai Cuisine restaurant for me and my 3 year old son. While the restaurant was preparing my food for take out, I went to Save On Foods to buy groceries. I picked up the take-out at 2pm. I ordered a bowl of fish-soup and buns. After arriving home, I fed the soup to my son, who ate some of the soup. At around 5pm, I was eating the leftover soup and I felt something unusual in my mouth. I spat out the food and discovered a mesh wire similar to those that are used for pot scrubbing. The mesh wire was around 2cm in length. I looked into the plastic take-out bowl and I found a longer mesh wire approximately 5-7cm long. After discovering the mesh wires in the soup, I contacted the restaurant. The restaurant said that they could refund me for the soup or do an exchange. They also said that I could get a lawyer to speak with them because they have insurance for matters like these. That night I felt discomfort in my throat and around midnight my son started complaining about stomach pain. The pain subsided shortly after so I did not take my son to the emergency room. The next day (Thursday), we went to see a doctor at the Aberdeen Health Clinic. The doctor examined me and my son. X rays were taken for my son and me. I am still awaiting the results. I contacted the restaurant later that day again, and spoke to the manager of the restaurant. He told me to keep all of the medical examination and treatment records relating to this incident and to get in touch with them again afterwards. On Friday, I called the restaurant back again, and I was told that the manager whom I spoke to no longer worked there and that they have no managers at the moment. I requested to speak to the owner of the restaurant, but they refused to provide me with any contact information. They also denied of having any knowledge about the soup incident. It seems to me like the restaurant is avoiding me on this issue.
Regardless of the poor service of the restaurant, the food taste appears to be "so delicious" because of MSG. After dinning in Top Shanghai, my friends and I have to drink a lot of water to release feeling thirsty. That's one sign of absorbing too much MSG. Someone we know working in the restaurant also confirms that chefs there are the heavy users of MSG. We understand that almost all Chinese restaurants will use MSG in their dishes. But Top Shanghai is just using too much. For your sake of health, just leave it.
When I go out to eat, I would expect a certain level of service. Otherwise I might as well stay home. The food here is OK, but not enough for me to come back again. The service is terrible. The waitresses, like all the previous reviews, are generally very curt and borderline rude. I had to share my table with two other parties. If the place is as small as this one, then they should not put in so many big 8-10 people dinning table. Since there are so many other better restaurants in Richmond, I don't need to suffer through the bad service for a meal.
I agree the food is good at Top Shanghai Cuisine. However, I received the worst service in my life that I wouldn't re-visit this restaurant. It's just not worth it! We ordered different dishes and it was supposed to be obvious that some dishes should come before other dishes but that was not the case in this restaurant. We were 3 ppl and the whole meal took us almost 2 hours, no matter how many times you reminded the waitress(es) that we're still waiting for our dishes, the answer was the same - THEY'RE ON THEIR WAY. Forgot how much we paid for the meal but we also left less than $1 tips! Don't go there cuz it'll ruin your mood of the day!

Rep. John Kline gives the Weekly Republican Party Remarks
Hello, I'm John Kline, chairman of the House Education & the Workforce Committee.
As you may know, millions of student-loan borrowers could soon see their interest rates double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent. This rate hike, which will take effect on July 1st if nothing is done, would apply to new subsidized Stafford loans issued to undergraduates. With time running out, the House of Representatives is the only chamber of Congress that has acted to solve this problem.
(Scroll down for video of these complete remarks.)
Our students deserve better. We're in this predicament because politicians put themselves in charge of setting interest rates, guaranteeing exactly this type of down-to-the-wire uncertainty for students and their families. What we need is a long-term solution that gets Washington out of the business of setting rates altogether.
Fortunately, President Obama agrees, and in his budget, he offered a plan for long-term reform by tying interest rates to the market. Heartened by that proposal, Republicans put together a similar measure — the Smarter Solutions for Students Act — and the House passed it last month, weeks before the deadline.
But Senate Democrats have actively blocked the president's plan and refuse to consider ours. In fact, they have yet to pass a solution of any kind. If I didn't know any better, I would say they are content to let rates double.
Still, Republicans have pressed ahead in good faith, and what we need to move forward now is more leadership from President Obama. This week, Speaker John Boehner sent a letter to the president asking him to step in. I myself have reached out to my Senate colleagues, and am urging members of the Obama administration to take action. Because of our efforts, there are finally signs of progress toward a bipartisan plan for a long-term, market-based solution, but we need to finish the job — and do so soon.
This 11th-hour scrambling is a perfect demonstration of why we need to take the politics out of student loans once and for all. We should now seize the opportunity before us. I urge President Obama to get engaged so we can stop this rate hike and deliver the kind of long-term solution our students and their families deserve. Thank you for listening. ####

Works very well, it's the first thing I grab when my children are showing signs of sickness.
We do not like to give tylenol for fevers in our family. So thankful for this alternative!
Every time I've used this for a fever, the fever was reduced by a full degree in just 15 minutes!
Very happy with Yummy Yarrow and am ordering the large size. It is something to give when they just don't feel right. And when they are sick, they stop complaining after given a dose. I'll keep a small bottle in our travel kit. Our kids seemed to get fevers with teeth coming in, so this a safe alternative to use.
They say fevers aren't necessarily bad, but it was getting difficult for all of us when my son had a lasting fever due to an ear infection. This formula, along with some Lympha Rub, seemed to really alleviate some symptoms and discomfort due to his fever and his appetite also returned!
A great substitute for Tylenol which we do not like to use. Really helps with fevers and overall flu like or inflammation and a hey symptoms. Another product I like to have on hand at all times.
We received Yummy Yarrow in the mail right before my daughter came down with a stomach virus. I gave her a few doses between her throwing up and she only vomited 2 times total. I continued a few more doses the next day and she claimed it helped her tummy settle. I feel like it shortened the virus and made it much more manageable. Great stuff!
I'm lucky that my daughter wasn't ever sick for 16 months, but then she got Hand/Foot/Mouth disease and had a pretty high fever for a few days (up to 104 at one point). I know a fever can be beneficial so I was letting her ride it out, but once it got above 102, I was a bit concerned. I don't like to use acetaminophen or ibuprofen so I wanted something natural. I remembered that I had Yummy Yarrow that I had (thankfully) never used yet and decided to try it. Within 30-40 minutes, her fever was lowered from 104 to a safe and healthy 102! I was so impressed with the results. We ended up giving only two doses and her fever broke the next day. I'm so glad I decided to stock my medicine cabinet with Trilight Health products to keep our family well!
So thankful to have another option other than Tylenol! So glad I purchased it. The shipping has always been impressive from this company as well.
I really like this product! My daughter tends to get fevers easily, and since she is allergic to ibuprofen, we've always had to give her acetaminophen. I gave this product to her the last time she got sick with a fever. Her temp never got over 101.5 and was back to normal after 2 days. I feel so much better giving her a natural product rather than drugs!
My son has a tendency to get fevers at the drop of a hat. When he was a newborn we had to go to the hospital because of his fever/age. I think it was likely just a cold, but we were admitted to the hospital and he had lots of tests and lots of antibiotics - not what I wanted for my newborn! I got a small bottle of the yummy yarrow and was impressed that his fever went away so quickly the first time we tried this.
I was pleased with the fast effectiveness yummy yarrow had on my 2 yr old's high fever. He usually runs high fevers for days; but this time, using yummy yarrow, it was all done and gone in 24 hrs! It also helped him get better sleep than any Tylenol/Motrin combination ever did!
We have lots of tummy aches. I feel this is a great tummy soother for my kids.
I love this product! It is so effective and I am going to make sure I have it around at all time! My daughter is very prone to high fevers (like my husband) and even Tylenol and Motrin don't always work very well with her. I've given her this on 2 different occasions and it brought the fever down quickly both times! Thank you so much!
I will now be keeping this one on hand at all times. It brought down my 3 year old's fever very quickly. Her illness lasted only a day and a half. I am very impressed.
This stuff is amazing and we highly recommend it. Our 2-year-old had a very high fever and we used this over the course of a couple of days until she got through the virus that she had that kept causing the fever. This stuff is the best and we plan to keep it on hand at all times!
This is my favorite product. When my daughter was up night after night coughing from allergy issues I tried yummy yarrow and it calmed her body and she was able to sleep.
I just used this for the first time with my children. Seemed to work quite well. And as always, they love the taste and ask for more medicine!
I love this product. I have always given it to my son whenever he has had a fever. It feels so good to know that I can give him something that is helping his body to heal instead of masking symptoms.
I like to give our kids Yummy Yarrow when they have the flu rather than working to get them to drink a cup of Yarrow tea. All of our children like the taste of the Tri-light herbals, so its very easy to get them to take what they need. They've actually stood in line, with their mouths open, waiting for their dose. (My husband gets a kick out of watching this.)
Another TriLight formula that we've learned to always have on hand. This formula has worked extremely well for us in stopping a cold in its tracks and reducing the pain and severity of fevers. We have tried other products with similar ingredients throughout the years and never had the same results as we've had with this formula. The tinc tract process is truly impressive. Thank you for offering our family such fine products.
I really like this product as an alternative to Tylenol. Whenever one of my 5 guys has a fever or general malaise I start dosing this. It helps make the fever productive and settle tummies. It works great alternating with viramune. This is probably one of my most used herbals.
Fights fever effectively and fast. Good product.
I use this when my daughter has a fever, and often after, to fight off infections. I usually give it to her ever 3 or 4 hours, along with other herbs, for several days/ to a week straight, and it kills off most if not all of her sickness in her body. Great product

Perfect for a visit to London
The Fielding Hotel is in the most perfect setting for theatre land, Covent Garden, & river trips on the Thames.
We booked our stay at The Fielding Hotel late on and I was a little concerned by the web site, looking a little dated, but we were not disappointed at all. We were given a very warm welcome, we arrived early and were able to leave our bags in a secure place until our room was ready. We were kindly given a complimentary room upgrade and our room was at the top of the hotel which was very quiet considering we were in the centre of theatre land. The staff were helpful and very friendly, we are already planning our next visit. If your looking for a 5* hotel with lots of facilities then maybe this hotel is not for you, but if your looking for somewhere that is central, surrounded by fabulous restaurants and all that London has to offer, then I don't think you will be disappointed.

Great location, great staff and lovely little hotel
Picked the fielding as we were just on a night away and it's location for covent garden is ideal.
Only real issue for us was the mattress was overly firm (personal preference I know), and the top window rattled all night despite it being locked.
Staff were great, really friendly and really helpful.

Quiet hideaway in the heart of London
Friendly receptionist.
Great room. Clean, plenty of toiletries.Warm but not too warm. My single grump is no lift. We were on the 3rd floor, climbing those typically narrow victorian stairs. Otherwise - fab. Will be back.

Great location
We wanted a hotel in central London.
And this one was perfect for Covent Garden and the theatres. Naturally there are numerous cafes, restaurants, & bar's with in easy walking distance. With its great location you won't need a tube pass either as nowhere is a great distance to walk. We were concerned that it could be noisy at night but there were no worries on that front as we slept well and uninterrupted. Would definitely use again when visiting London next time.

It's a tall order to design a world class mountain-biking course. I always knew that. Then I interviewed Greg Martin. He's the course director for the USA Cycling Cross Country National Championships that were held in Sun Valley this past July. He laid out the specifics of building challenging terrain for me. In short, it's more work than you think.
Here's the dirt on everything that went into this year's course in Sun Valley. (And next week I'll have an interview up with Greg—stay tuned.)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about sign language. For hand music, see Manualism (hand music).
Manualism is a method of education of deaf students using sign language within the classroom.[1]
While working at Gallaudet University in the 1970s, William Stokoe felt that American Sign Language was a language in its own right; with its own independent syntax and grammar. Stokoe classified the language into five parts which included: handshapes, orientation, location, movement, and facial expression, in which much of the meaning of the sign is clarified as well as the grammar of the sentence expressed.[2] Some sign languages, such as American Sign Language, have been promoted as the traditional way of communication for deaf people.[3] Manualism is combined with oralism as the contemporary technique for the education of deaf students.[4]

at what point can lo go longer between feedings?
Comments (9)
For most of your time breastfeeding you'll still be nursing every 2-3 hours most of the time. You just won't nurse as much at night. That means that you still have to get in about 8 feedings or 30 ozs during the day.
Mom to Isaac (February 2012)
Expat work from home mama to
DS (4/10) didn't BF until 3 months old
DD (4/12) born in the car
m/cs 12/08, 3/09 & 8/11
Most of the time, your baby will continue to nurse every 2 hours; however, your baby will get more efficient. Now, it probably takes a good 30 minutes for your baby to nurse, but 4-5 months from now, your baby may only need to nurse for 10-15 minutes. This will make a big difference and seem to make things easier.
Solids really won't have much of an effect on nursing because solids are really just for experimenting with different tastes and textures until the age of 1. Babies still need the fat from BM before then. Like PP said, solids should be started around 6 months or so, and you'll still nurse before each meal. The amount of nursing won't change much, but you'll add in a meal or 2 of solids in addition to the nursing. My DD only had 1 meal of solids until she was 9 months. Then, we added in dinner. She didn't have solids for breakfast until she was 1.

Mine is almost 10 weeks and he goes 2-3.5 hours during day with a long stretch at night. He has become more effiecient in the last 2 weeks, only nursing for 15 or so minutes during the day. At night and he comfort sucks sometimes and often overeats.
I'm going to choose not to misinterpret that.
My daughter used to nurse every 1.5-2hrs till week 7. now she nurses every 3-4hrs. At night, once she falls asleep, the next feeding is usually 5hrs apart from previous feeding. then it's every 3hrs. I've noticed that as she grew older, she eats more than before which makes her go longer between feedings.
At night he goes 3-5 hours usually. Once or twice a week he's really nice to mommy and goes 7 hours between feedings :)

'Ex-Deutsche banker left notes'Comment on this story
London - A former senior manager at Deutsche Bank, William Broeksmit, killed himself after leaving several suicide notes for family and friends, an inquest concluded on Tuesday.
Broeksmit, 58, who had close ties to the bank's co-Chief Executive Anshu Jain, was found hanging in January at his Kensington home by his wife and pronounced dead at the scene.
Coroner Fiona Wilcox said there was "clear suicidal intent" in several notes written to friends and family but did not give details of their content.
The inquest at London's High Court heard written medical evidence that Broeksmit was "very anxious" in the summer of 2013 about authorities investigating areas of banking in which he had worked.
He had retired from the bank in February 2013.
But by the last time he was known to have seen a doctor, in December 2013, he had not appeared anxious or depressed, the hearing was told. - Reuters

'30 Rock' heroine Liz Lemon to wed this month
NEW YORK (AP) — Liz Lemon is getting married and you're invited.
Fans of "30 Rock" might have reasonably assumed that Lemon, the harried TV producer played by Tina Fey, would ride out the series' seventh and final season as a perennial bachelorette unlucky in love. But Fey, who is also the creator and producer of the NBC comedy, clearly thought otherwise.
In the "30 Rock" episode airing Nov. 29, Lemon will wed.
Who's the lucky guy? He's Liz's latest fella, Criss Chross (played by guest star James Marsden), a Peter Pan-ish would-be entrepreneur who hatches ventures such as an organic gourmet hot-dog truck.
On Thursday, NBC made the grand announcement that Ms. Elizabeth Miervaldis Lemon, 42, would be presenting herself to be married to Mr. Crisstopher Rick Chross — "But not in a creepy way that perpetuates the idea that brides are virgins and women are property."
The invitation also specifies that guests (i.e., you viewers) should plan to "bring your own snacks."
No preview of the episode has been made available.
The series, which airs Thursdays at 8 p.m. EST, will conclude early next year.
"30 Rock" is the saga of Lemon, the overextended producer of a fictitious comedy show loosely inspired by "Saturday Night Live" (where Fey toiled for nine seasons as cast member and writer). Liz is surrounded by kookie comrades like company boss Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin) and Tracy Jordan (Tracy Morgan), her boisterously unhinged star.
A recurring theme of "30 Rock" has been Lemon's comicaly flawed love life. Short-lived boyfriends have included quirky airline pilot Carol Burnett (played by Matt Damon), immature businessman Dennis Duffy (Dean Winters) and dimwitted pediatrician Dr. Drew Baird (Jon Hamm).
But clearly there was something special about Criss, who first arrived on the scene last season.
Even before meeting him, Donaghy was disapproving: "Lemon, I have said 'Good God' to you before," he huffed, "but I don't think I've ever MEANT it until now: Good God!!!"
But Criss is different, Liz insisted: "I'm more relaxed around him. My jaws stopped popping. And for once I'm not overthinking everything."
Jack wasn't convinced. He noted that Criss is a puppy-dog-eager dork who carries a Sunglass Hut credit card and owns a ukulele plastered with an Obama sticker.
