Parents with children that have/had tubes in their ears, wwyd and how was your experience as well as your child's exprience?
Too many ear infections for my DS
Parents with children that have/had tubes in their ears, wwyd and how was your experience as well as your child's exprience?
DS#1 had 10 ear infections by the time he was 10 months old...2 of them landed him in the ER....we opted to get the tubes put in! He had 2 mild ear infections after the tubes were in and by age 3 the tubes had fallen out and he has not had an ear infection since.
The only PINK in this house of BLUE !
Two of my children had chronic infections and what really worked for us after 3years was to cut out dairy, it worked great! It seemed to cut down on mucus, etc. We reintroduced dairy when they were older. Also,(I don't know if you do)but DONT smoke anywhere around your child or let him be exposed it REALLY causes problems for infection prone kids.
ODD had ear infections from the time she was 5mths old until she was about 3yrs old. Non-stop. She had tubes put in at 10mths. They did nothing except relieve the pressure and show us when her ears were infected again. She was on maintenence medication and that was helpful for a while but she became pretty much immune to normal doses of antibiotics and had to take massive amounts to clear infections.
The ENT wanted to take her adnoids out and put new tubes in when they finally fell out. I opted to not do those surgeries but I do wish I'd had her adnoids out now that she's older and still gets EIs.
My son got tubes at two years old and his ear infections stopped. He also immediately began to talk. Yes, they can still swim. There are special wax ear plugs to keep water out of the tubes.
I wish that I had done it sooner! Tubes have changes a lot in the past 20-30 years since I was a child and although daughter did not experience any hearing/speech improvements (because she was not behind to begin with) there was a night and day decrease in the number of infections and random illnesses she was getting. Procedure took 10 minutes (we actually missed the doctor because we literally ran to get a cup of coffee) and she was totally normal within a few hours. We didn't even get the lazy recovery day that I was looking forward to. I regret taking my time with the decision hoping that she would outgrow the need for tubes all the while continually putting her through the pain of ear infections and poor sleep for weeks/months at a time. Why would a parent want to consider not doing a simple procedure to improve a child's health and make them feel better, YKWIM?

This sucks.
I am an adult and I have tubes in my ears. My mom opted not to do it when I was younger and I now am starting to suffer from hearing loss and other problems due to the scar tissue that has built up from so many infections. They have ear plugs you can use to still be able to swim. Get the tubes.
They can't eliminate ear infections on their own, what they do is eliminate pressure and help the air flow through the ear which helps eliminate infections, etc. For me the relief from the pressure was immediate when the tubes were put in.

"Holes are not supposed to be in people!!!!" ~ Dawn Mertise
ok same situation DD had lots of ear infections in a row, one ENT dr said right off the bat tubes go in after the next infection, I really didn't like him so I switched, THE BEST thing ever! the next specialist a regular ENT, looked at my DD and really listened and did some tests, he recommended putting DD on alergy meds, he said with her alergies the fluid was running into her ears instead of her having a runny nose and causing the ear infections, so on meds she went and we haven't had an issue since except the time we ran out of her meds and let it slide for a wk, she got one within a couple of days. maybe something to mention to ur dr and see if could work
together with DH since 01 married in'04.
DD born 01/01/06
DS born 10/06/09
so we have had 2 successful tubes and one that hasn't helped at all.
If I were you I would have them put in. Chances are it would help. Its slim that it wouldn't like in our case
Everyone knows how to raise kids, except the ones that have kids

One killed in crashComment on this story
Durban - One person died and another was injured in an accident involving three minibus taxis on the N3 near the Sherwood off-ramp outside Durban on Friday morning, paramedics said.
A taxi broke down in the fast lane and another stopped to help. A third taxi then crashed into the two, before veering off and smashing into a concrete barrier, Netcare 911 spokesman Chris Botha said.
Botha could not confirm if the man who died was the taxi driver or a passenger. The injured man was treated on the scene before being taken to a local hospital. - Sapa

AIG's ILFC Unit Plans $1 Billion Sale of 10-Year Debt
American International Group Inc.'s aircraft-leasing unit plans to sell $1 billion of 10-year notes, according to a person familiar with the transaction.
International Lease Finance Corp. may issue the debt at a yield of 8.375 percent, said the person, who declined to be identified because terms aren't set.
ILFC, which has sold $7.15 billion of debt this year, is tapping the corporate bond market for the third time in 2010, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The offering follows a $2 billion, two-part sale by AIG on Nov. 30, the New York-based parent's first since before its 2008 rescue by the U.S. government.
Proceeds from ILFC's sale may be used for general corporate purposes, including repayment of debt, ILFC said today in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Standard & Poor's assigned the notes a grade of BB+, one step below investment grade, it said in a statement.
ILFC faces $5.3 billion of debt maturing next year and $6.2 billion coming due in 2012, the company said in the filing, which didn't specify the size or timing of the offering. Barclays Plc, Deutsche Bank AG, JPMorgan Chase & Co. and UBS AG are managing the sale, according to the filing.
ILFC last sold debt on Aug. 11, when it issued $4.4 billion of bonds in a four-part offering, Bloomberg data show. The $500 million unsecured notes due in September 2017 that were part of that transaction traded at 106 cents on the dollar to yield 7.71 percent on Nov. 30, according to Trace, the bond price reporting system of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority.

U.S. Diplomat, Close to Saakashvili, Plays Key Role in Conflict
When Russian tanks rolled out of South Ossetia and into Georgia proper Monday, triggering fears of a full-scale invasion, a man began furiously shoving U.S. diplomat Matthew J. Bryza around the lobby of the Marriott Tbilisi, the capital's fanciest hotel.
"It's your fault too," shouted Georgy Khaindrava, a former Georgian minister for conflict resolution. "If you hadn't propped up Misha Magariya [Misha the strong], we wouldn't have tanks here now," he said, referring to Georgian President Mikheil Saakashvili.
Mr. Bryza, who is in his mid-40s, is a household name in Georgia, closely identified with U.S. support for Georgia and for its pro-Western president, Mr. Saakashvili. When he goes out in the street, people sometimes ask to take their picture with him. They ask for his autograph. And, like Mr. Khandraiva, a fierce critic of Mr. Saakashvili since being fired, some of them get mad.
In this conflict, which threatens to rewrite U.S.-Russian relations, the Stanford and Tufts University-educated Mr. Bryza has taken a central role, despite his title. A deputy assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs, he has been Washington's point man on territorial disputes in the Caucasus since the beginning of President George W. Bush's first term.
He also oversaw U.S. efforts to break Moscow's stranglehold over Central Asia's oil and gas supplies to Europe, a project for which Georgia is essential. That project suffered a setback after Russia apparently tried to bomb oil pipelines in Georgia.
The affable Mr. Bryza has developed a reputation as a hard-liner on Russia's actions towards the former states of the Soviet Union and a staunch defender of both Georgia and the 40-year-old Mr. Saakashvili, with whom he has a close personal relationship.
Critics say that has complicated the U.S.-Georgian relationship, possibly diluting State Department warnings to Tbilisi against engaging in a military confrontation with Russia. Some say there were signs for months that Russia was laying a trap for Mr. Saakashvili.
Lt. Col. Robert Hamilton, who headed the Office of Defense Cooperation in the U.S. Embassy in Tbilisi until last month, said Russia took a number of steps that appeared designed either to spark a war or force a "creeping annexation" of the two disputed provinces at the center of the conflict.
Col. Hamilton said he was particularly concerned about Russia's deployment in April of hundreds of "railroad workers" to reconnect transportation links between Russia and Abkhazia, which U.S. officials now believe was preparation for the conflict.
"In every case, Georgia appealed for international assistance," he said.
Mr. Bryza said Washington has been firm with Tbilisi. He said that for at least four months, he and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice as well as other U.S. diplomats had repeatedly delivered the same message to Mr. Saakashvili: that the Georgian leader should "avoid an unwinnable confrontation with Russia."
Though he acknowledges a close and long relationship with Mr. Saakasvili, Mr. Bryza says his diplomatic role is not about friendship. "This is not about any one leader, it's about democracy," he says.
He noted that in November, when Mr. Saakashvili cracked down on opposition protesters using tear gas and rubber bullets, shutting down an opposition television station, he was the one who took a "very tough" message to the Georgian president.
"We'll support you as long as you are a democrat," Mr. Bryza says he told Mr. Saakashvili.
This time around, he has expressed firm public support for the Georgians. Arriving in Tbilisi Monday to try to negotiate a cease-fire, Mr. Bryza blasted Russian forces for what he said were their premeditated military actions in South Ossetia and Georgia. He also challenged Russian claims that Moscow's offensive inside Georgia was akin to Washington's 2003 invasion of Iraq, essentially an act of self-defense.
"Saddam Hussein was not a leader who transformed his country into the world's leading economic reformer," Mr. Bryza told reporters at Tblisi's international airport. "President Saakashvili and his government are democratically elected."
Mr. Bryza, who speaks fluent Russian and Polish, was based in Poland from 1989 to 1991. From 1995 to 1997, he served in the U.S. Embassy in Moscow and monitored the Russian legislature and the Communist Party as a political officer.
The U.S. diplomat must manage a widening crisis with a Georgian leadership remarkably short of international experience. Defense Minister David Kezerashvili is just 30 years old, and many of Mr. Saakashvili's other top aides have yet to hit 40. Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin is 55.
"You had this massive generational change in Georgia's leadership in recent years that gave young officials enormous responsibilities," says Cory Welt, who directs Georgetown University's Eurasian Strategy Project. "This can lead to mistakes."
In recent days, Mr. Bryza and Ms. Rice, who visited Tbilisi Friday, have worked to safeguard Georgia's democratic transition by trying to hammer out a cease-fire agreement between Russia and Georgia and a plan for the deployment of international peacekeepers into disputed regions. The U.S. has also worked to ferry humanitarian supplies into Georgia as international relief agencies say there are now more then 100,000 displaced peoples in the country.
Mr. Bryza says there may be a silver lining to the conflict. "This need not be the defeat that many people in Georgia perceive it to be," he said. "The situation is serious, make no mistake," he added, but with Russia's international reputation "back on its heels, Georgia has an opportunity to reshape the international mechanisms around the frozen conflict zones."

I'm getting on a plane on Thursday, and with the latest ban on what you can carry onboard, I've gotten completely lost. If I use a sleek totebag, can I call it a purse and take it on the plane with me? Is it only on flights out of the UK that you can carry virtually nothing?
------�Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and it annoys the pig.� -Robert Heinlein and Ann's father. Thanks for the reminder, Ann.
Where are we going, and what am I doing in this handbasket?
Matthew 25:40 (New International Version)
The King will reply, 'I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
Would you believe that my son had a flight out of here Thursday morning? Just hours after they annouced this stuff.
Do I have a story to tell - - needed two stiff drinks when I got home.
He was allowed to take a backpack. No fluids (acutally didn't even give him any to begin with - - that's what the flight attendents are there to provide.)
You might want to look into nude flying. I know it exists but you have to book it through specialized travel agents.
Be prepared for lines, lines and more lines. Also very stern stressed out security personel (though I must say one was very very kind to me and helped me deal with a big problem.)
One "complaint" I heard on the news is that the rules are not consistant. The security personell have a lot of discretion. Personally I think this is a good thing. Whenever we have iron clad rules, rules that can be counted to to be enforeced to the letter, well that's just what the terrorists need in order to plan around them.
Hi Karla,
I think the new rules vary quite a bit, and will vary more depending on your place of departure and destination.
What has been reported on CBC in Canada is that you can only take travel documents, wallets, necessary medications, sanitary supplies, baby food and supplies, I think that was it. You have to either be able to fit these items in your pockets or you will be given a clear plastic bag to carry them in.
Absolutely no electronics, including key rings. No phones, computers, ipods, etc.
Having said all of that I also heard that the restrictions will be eased fairly soon.
I would plan on not carrying anything, but bringing a novel, small wallet and hoping for the best.
I do not anticipate flying overseas for at least 18 months, it will be interesting to see what is allowed then.
------Proud parent of a Dwight International School Honour Roll Student
Flew last Thurs. and security was not too bad - I removed all liquids/lotion, etc. I had my laptop, 2 cells. Didnt have a problem. When boarding the plane, there was spot checking of baggages. I had a rolling bag and a small backpack. Will fly out of CA Mon and I don't know what the restriction is, they seem a bit stricter.
Karla - Whenever I fly, I am worried about lost luggage and not having my clothes. Nothing in a mall fits me --- why I sew. I have to fly in September and if we're not allowed a carryon suitcase I may have to wear 4 days worth of clothes at once. The "layered' look?!
What am I saying??? I have to fly in 10 days! Yikes. -- Edited on 8/12/06 1:55 PM --
------ iPad's auto-correct is my enema.
That's my main reason for always choosing non-stop flights! I want to minimize the chance of having my luggage lost. It's happened only twice that I remember - once when it didn't make the connection in Charlotte, and once when I didn't pay attention when they tagged my luggage. It went to LaGuardia with the passengers who check in just before me, and I went to Orlando; wish it had been reversed....
I've always carried my makeup, a change of underthings and a non-wrinkly tunic-y top and a scarf on the plane, figuring that even if my luggage gets lost for a day, I can still go out to dinner that night. But now? I guess I'd better wear the tunic-y top to travel in and hope the restaurant lights are dim enough to disguise a lack of makeup. The counter-terrorism measures are really hitting me where it hurts....
Doris, If you're rally worried, consider shipping some clothes to your destination. Less to carry on a plane, and two different methods of shipping ("with you"--at least on the same plane--and separately via FedX) means at least one of them ought to get through on a timely basis! Separately, make sure you have your name/address, etc. plastered all over your bags, both inside and outside.
Don't even consider wearing that many layers of clothes when you fly...they make you practically strip for the security screening anyway (at least down to a single layer (sweaters, jackets, belts, shoes, overblouses, vests. All off!) That's bad enough, but then you have to put whatever it was you took off back on again!
If you're shipping to a hotel, ship for arrival the day you arrive at your hotel, and be sure to consult w/ the hotel about how it should be labeled--you don't want the package refused. There was a lot of Fed-X shipping of luggage just after 9-11, so most hotels should have a system down for dealing w/ shipped luggage. You just want to make sure you work within their "system"!
Good luck w/ your trip!
I'm flying back from OK next Sunday and wasn't planning on checking my luggage. I guess I'll be doing it now since I have my good Mary Kay skin care with me and don't want to have to throw it out. My Dsis came from Tucson on Thursday and wasn't even supposed to have chapstick. They threw it out. No toothpaste either.

Ohgoodgrief! DH had to fly Thurs to the bay area in Calif. He's getting home today, thank God! I talked to him on the phone yesterday & he said they made him check his carryon!
He had to borrow toothpaste from my DSis where he stayed.
As I've been bragging for months now about my trip to Ireland in Sept., it's hard to admit I'm really having second thoughts! The thing is the amount of money I've put out since making the plan -- not just the airfare which in not refundable, but the advance payment to the tour guide/chaffeur! (*Yikes*)
Bottom line, I hate like he** to let these lunatics win! If we all give-up our freedoms & quality of life, they win! Da**** if I'm going to let that happen.
I've had my baggage take a different trip than mine so many times that for the last 8 or 9 years I *Always* take a carry-on with a complete change of clothes as well as jammies & toilletries. My DSis & I are flying into Shannon via what else, Heathrow! Of course any profiling will go tilt for both of us since our parents were both born in Co Galway, Ireland. Do we have relatives there? Of course!
Oh well, let's hope they consider us two doddering little-old-ladies!
Da**** if I'm going to let "them" win!

If I don't have time to do it right, when will I have time to do it over?
I flew Continental in mid-July.
I had a packet of hand sewing needles as I intended to do some last minute sewing in my hotel room. I told the security guard about them in my carry-on and asked if I should throw them away or if they were okay. She asked to see them so I took them out and promptly spilled them all over the floor!
Imagine that happening this week! Oooh, I shudder to think.

Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

I'm pretty easygoing, low maintenance, and have a positive outlook on life. I don't dread Mondays, and don't count days until vacation. I look at a glass that is halfway empty and see it as mostly full. I believe life needs to be filled with adventure, and I want to find a companion who shares that belief.
I tend to be more silly than serious and I'm looking for someone to share many laughs with. She should also be passionate about life and the people in it -- the type of person that realizes that getting lost while driving is just another opportunity to explore. But while exploring, she needs to know how to use Google maps in a pinch.
I'd like to meet people that thrive on outdoor activities and can crack a joke with the best of them. I'm looking for someone who's confident, creative, silly, and has a relaxed approach to life -- she doesn't stress out over much and rolls with whatever happens. I like women who physically take care of themselves, but personality is most important.
I don't send out many messages here, perhaps one every 3-4 months. I am a young 47 year old that stays quite active (recently completed Ironman Boulder in August 2014 and usually exceed my fitbit goal). So I'm not very compatible with the person that has a list of TV shows a mile long, I don't even have cable TV. I'm not looking for someone that "loves hiking" but has gone only gone once in the last three years. I'm looking for someone that likes living her life herself, not watching others do it on TV. I'd be more interested in the person that wants to go for a hike, bike, run, or hit the batting cages.
Another single parent would be great, unless your child is the crazy kid that taunts lions at the zoo or puts the puppy in the dryer. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree you know.
If you think there may be a connection, please drop me a line. I'll look forward to reading it.

Exceptional story! Thank you for writing it! Sooo... how about writing one for Max and Elsa? They deserve a happy ending too! (And they are two of my favorite characters).
| augiesannie chapter 27 . 7/30/2013
Just wanted to thank you one more time for this lovely story. Those last few chapters came on so fast I barely had time to review - and I don't know anything about Anna/Bates, although you have inspired me to find out. Anyhow, I really enjoyed the way you built up the tension, and how each of them had to overcome doubts and fears, and how sweet was the ending. I will really miss your TSOM stories - you are one of the stalwarts - hope you will come back soon. And even if you don't write about TSOM for a while, I hope you'll come visit and review. (and maybe join our fan group?)
| login password chapter 27 . 7/29/2013
You ended this story in the most perfect way possible. I'm glad Rolf and Liesl, and Mina and Friedrich now have closer relationships with each other. And I am elated that Maria and Georg were able to marry and become one before arriving to America. Everything turned out wonderful. I am looking forward to your next story!
| Mie779 chapter 27 . 7/29/2013
Imagine that... got around to read your story in one day... :P yaaah... and what a great read it have been... I love how they confessed their love in the garden... and even though I have never seen DA I must say I love the Bates couple...
Must say I'm a little sad to see you leave TSOM universe, at least for a while (I hope;), your stories in here have been amazing to read and follow... thanks ;) , ... while saying this I must admit that I'll also stray off to another fan world... at least for a while... ;)

| Michelle285 chapter 27 . 7/27/2013
I'm being lazy and don't want to log it, but I love this story! I absolutely loved the garden scene and this epilogue was just so lovely. I can't help but be just a tad upset that this is your last SoM fic, because I love Georg and Maria so much. More than that though, I am practically In Love with the way you write them! It's just all so perfect. On the other hand though, I'll have to start watching Downton Abbey, everyone says it's great. Anyway, totally off subject now. I love love love this story and I can only hope you get inspired again soon! Until then...I will miss you in the SoM world!

Texas 5, Kansas City 3
August 14, 2007
AP - Aug 14, 10:59 pm EDT
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) -- Gerald Laird and Michael Young homered and Kevin Millwood struck out nine in seven innings to lead the Texas Rangers to a 5-3 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday night.
The Royals had taken a 3-1 lead in the sixth, scoring twice on Rangers first baseman Jarrod Saltalamacchia's double error. But the Rangers answered with a fourth-run sixth capped by Laird's three-run homer.
Nelson Cruz's RBI single in the sixth chased starter Kyle Davies (1-1) and pulled the Rangers within 3-2.
David Riske relieved with runners on first and second and Laird ripped a 1-0 pitch into the seats in left field for his seventh homer and a 5-3 lead.
Millwood (8-9) gave up three runs -- one earned -- and four hits in his longest outing since July 13, when he went seven innings against the Los Angeles Angels.

5 trillion pieces of plastic floating on World's oceansPublished At: 2015-04-26 00:20 - (1201 Reads)
A recent evidence-based study has been released which estimates the amounts of plastics floating on the oceans. The study is based on extensive surveys from 24 expeditions across the five major rotating ocean current regions (known as ocean gyres) of the sub tropics as well as coastal Australia, the Bay of Bengal and the Mediterranean Sea. The study estimates ("our estimates are highly conservative") there are in the order of 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic weighing around 270,000 tonnes currently floating on the surface of the oceans. As around 8 million tonnes of plastic waste is added to the World's oceans annually the majority of it sinks to the ocean floor. Plastics take in the order of 5 to 40+ years to break up and degrade/decompose in the oceans, depending on their chemical and physical composition. Some are ingested by marine life and some eventually find their way into the food chain for human consumption. Every year around 100,000 marine mammals and turtles are killed by plastic litter. A second recent study takes available data on plastics entering the oceans from major sources and models the dynamics of how the plastics are flushed from these land sources into the major ocean regions and demonstrates the subsequent transport of plastics by wind and current around the World. Together these 2 studies provide new, more robust estimates of the global situation.
Does rapid Arctic warming cause extreme weather in mid- latitudes ?Published At: 2015-03-22 15:57 - (1086 Reads)
This article investigates the conjecture that the rapidly warming Arctic is more important in determining Northern Hemisphere weather patterns than conventional climate dynamics theory holds. We have discussed a previous 2009 article in which Jennifer Frances and colleagues investigated correlations between summer ice extents in the Arctic and broader Northern Hemisphere weather patterns(see Extent of summer Arctic sea ice may help predict Northern Hemisphere weather patterns). In this 2012 paper Jennifer Francis and Stephen Vavrus propose a mechanism by which Arctic amplification affects broader Northern Hemisphere weather patterns. They provide evidence that a rapidly warming Arctic weakens the pressure gradient between the Arctic and mid-latitudes which slows the jet stream and increases its waviness. Increased waviness in the jet stream has been statistically linked by recent independent studies to extreme weather in the mid-latitudes. This research is still in its early stages and the detailed mechanism proposed in this paper has not yet been widely accepted.
Jennifer Francis, Stephen Vavrus, Evidence linking Arctic amplification and extreme weather in mid-latitudes 2012
Extent of summer Arctic sea ice may help predict Northern Hemisphere weather patternsPublished At: 2015-02-26 01:57 - (1159 Reads)
The Arctic Ocean, which is a small body of water compared to the Pacific or the Atlantic oceans, is not considered to be a major determinant of global weather patterns. But in 2009 Jennifer Francis and her colleagues published a paper presenting evidence that the recent faster warming in the Arctic, called Arctic amplification, is changing broader Northern Hemisphere weather patterns. The authors hypothesize possible mechanisms by which the Arctic could influence broader weather patterns. The most controversial of these is the suggestion that decreasing ice extents reduces the temperature gradient between high and mid-latitudes which results in slowing the jet stream which has important implications for Northern Hemisphere weather patterns. A potential application of this research is that summer sea extents could be used to predict Northern Hemisphere weather in the following autumn and winter which would be of value for weather forecasting in the Northern Hemisphere.

The cryosphere and climate change - An EC perspective on the evidence presented in IPCC's 5th Assessment ReportPublished At: 2014-11-16 11:08 - (3913 Reads)
The term cryosphere refers to those parts of the Earth's surface where water is in solid form. This includes ice in glaciers, ice sheets and sea ice as well as permafrost (frozen ground) and snow. The cryosphere plays a major role in the global climate system and impacts such critical environmental factors as sea level, the water cycle, surface energy budgets and methane production. The IPCC 5th Assessment Report (AR5) focuses on the cryosphere as one of its main themes. The report (AR5 chapter 4) concludes (with high confidence) that over the last two decades glaciers have continued to shrink almost worldwide, the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets have been losing mass and Arctic sea ice and Northern Hemisphere spring snow cover have continued to decrease in extent. The report also concludes that multiple lines of evidence support very substantial Arctic warming since the mid-20th century. In addition there is more data every year indicating a continuing increase in permafrost thawing (which leads to the release of methane). IPCC AR5, Chapter 4 - Cryosphere
This article is one of a series of eight providing an EnvironmentCounts.org (EC) perspective on various aspects of IPCC's AR5. Each article focuses on the primary data and related evidence presented and specifically excludes coverage of projections, as per EC's editorial policy and guidelines.

How to Worry About Ebola
The little-known black market driving the virus' latest outbreak
of adventure, connection, and change making.
The little-known black market driving the virus' latest outbreak
We need to stop using the term "bush meat". The "bush" is a problematic geographic reference that juxtaposes "civilization" from "uncultivated wilderness" unworthy of the attention of anyone of social standing (derived from a colonial, Victorian, deeply racialized and class-driven sense of space) to enter, enjoin, or critically engage. The term "bush meat" only reifies the idea of ineffable jungle, beyond the pale of understanding the localization of cultures, group clusters, spatially-specific economies and experiences that are more than, as the author puts it, a "local penchant" for, really, any(/)thing associated with the space writ large. Using the term "game" and contextualizing it as meat gleaned from non-agrarian sources, specifically citing bats, cane rats, primate meat and other localized sources of Ebola would do a great deal to treat African experiences like they are more than Victorian monoliths. Clearly, that's the shakeup this article, and it's uninspired worldview, needs.
That's a perspective I haven't run across before, Yemi. I'm really interested in the alternative you're offering. I posted this a while ago about how Western media ignores positive stories from Africa: http://www.good.is/do/change-africa-s-image-in-the-western-media-by-sharing-positive-facts-and-news
I think you're highlighting another part of the same disaster pornography phenomenon. I hadn't ever thought of this, but of course it now makes perfect sense. I wasn't able to find much online about the origins of the term, but I did find that a 2000 UN resolution eschewed it in favor of "wild meat."
I'll make sure your suggestion reaches the author of the piece.

Re: I hope for more traditional space battles
Ovation wrote:
You don't appear to be taking into account the frequent attempts by filmmakers to provide the audience with a cathartic experience. Even films that are overtly trying to "make a statement", like Unforgiven, provide a moment of cathartic release (in that particular case, through the very thing the movie spends most of its time criticizing). Trek had no such aspirations, so it's cathartic moment was of a piece with the events depicted. Whether you personally found it agreeable is up to you, of course, but the fact it occurred at all, especially given current social attitudes (something reflected in pop culture all the time), should not be surprising.
I accept you point but I am not protesting the use of a cathartic experience. Merely the poorly thought out circumstances, IMO, of the one employed in ST09. The black hole was giving Nero his comeuppance anyway and that was the result of Spock's actions.
I don't feel it is unreasonable to expect that the way the "heroes" defeat the villain should be, if not completely "honourable", then at least necessary (and the necessity in this case looks less likely of late). It is true that Prime Kirk has played hard ball in the past and I am not criticising that, when it was required.
These kind of problems don't just detract from, but actively oppose the traditional notion of Star Trek (TOS) optimism in my view. Its unfortunate because it doesn't seem like the small change I advocated would effect the movie's bottom line either. I can't see anyone missing Kirk's unfortunate "Me too" moment. Did anyone really miss Kirk not shooting Khan dead in person in TWOK? Later events over-took such potential regret anyway of course.

My husbands wants to leave it at one and done. I agreed at one point. After the pregnancy and emergency c-section and all the trouble we went through to get this healthy baby here, I wasn't sure I would ever want to go through it again.
I have been thinking a lot recently after the death of my father how I don't know how I would have made it through my life and ended up in the awesome place I'm at if it hadn't been for my sister. I was the oldest and the only child for 9 years. Having a sister made my life so much more awesome.
My husband was the youngest and loves his sister, but thinks being an only child would have been just fine. They don't have the same kind of connection I have with my sister, apparently.
Having been the big sister, I really feel like I want my son to be a big brother.
How do I convince my husband I am right and he's wrong and we should have another baby when the boy is out of diapers?
ETA: Note the bold. I don't mean this week, this month or even this year. I would want my son to be at least 2 if not older, but because I'm already 33, I'd want it to be not too much longer.

Thirteen acquitted after rapes in CongoComment on this story
Goma, Congo -
A court has acquitted more than a third of the defendants in a rare trial held after mass rapes took place in eastern Congo.
Thirteen of the 38 men charged were acquitted, with the court citing a lack of evidence.
The judge, however, sentenced two soldiers to life in prison in connection with the mass rapes.
Other defendants received sentences ranging from 10 to 20 years on lesser charges.
Authorities say at least 135 women and girls were raped in and around the town of Minova in eastern Congo in November 2012.
Witnesses said that for days, the Congolese army raped, killed and looted in anger and disarray after their defeat by rebels, before discipline could be re-established by army commanders. - Sapa-AP

Medric Mills' Children Grill Fire Chief Over the Death of Their Father
The children of Medric Mills confronted Fire Chief Kenneth Ellerbe at a community meeting Thursday night, demanding to know why no one has been held accountable yet for their father's death and why they still don't have more answers.
Mills, 77, collapsed and later died across the street from a fire station along Rhode Island Avenue in Northeast on Jan. 25. But, despite pleas for help on the street and someone actually going to the fire station asking for aid, no rescue workers from that station ever came to his rescue.
"My family is looking for definite answers," Mills' son, Medric Mills III, said last night, repeatedly adding that there is a total "lack of compassion" within the department. "I have yet to see anyone held accountable for not doing their job. What are you going to do to get this rectified?"
Ellerbee attended the Greater Rhode Island Community Meeting last night at Mary McLeod Bethune Public Charter to hear residents' concerns about the fire department in the wake of the high profile Mills case. During his presentation, the chief hardly referenced the case or the circumstances surrounding it. (It's a pending investigation, so he is prohibited from talking specifics.) Instead he largely talked about the department's new ambulances and what he described as his hold-everyone accountable leadership style. He also defended the cadet training program. On Jan. 25, it was a cadet who was manning the front desk and was unsure of what to do when someone came to the firehouse looking for a rescue worker to help Mills.
"We want to give these young people an opportunity, this [cadet] program provides our young folks an opportunity to come back and serve our city," Ellerbe said. "I'd fire a whole class before I let them mess up the process."
But during the question and answer portion of the evening, things got more heated as residents pinned the tragic death of Mills to lapses in the department. One woman said several families have been let down by the fire department and went as far as saying that Mayor Vince Gray lost Tuesday's election in part because of Ellerbe.
Others came to the chief's defense, saying he has been used as a scapegoat and this single tragedy shouldn't reflect on the entire department.
"Washington, D.C. is one of the meanest, toughest political environments that any political appointee can exist in," Ellerbe said.
But the most emotional part of the night came when Mills' adult children grilled the chief.
"I'm hearing more and more horror stories about Fire and EMS than I care to hear," his daughter, Maria Mills, told the chief. "My father wasn't the last."
Both Mills' son and daughter asked why the media and public weren't allowed to attend a recent trial board hearing for the lieutenant who was in charge of the nearby fire station when Mills collapsed. Ellerbe wasn't the one who made the call to close the meeting—that was the head of the trial board's decision—but his office did send out a press release the day before the hearing started to the press, telling them to attend the trial board. (The release did note that there was a possibility that the meeting would be closed to the public.) When the press arrived and wasn't allowed in, the story became about the trial board shutting the media and the Mills family out of the hearing.
Last night, Ellerbe acknowledged that his office doesn't typically send out releases about trial board hearings, but did so this time because it was a high profile case and he wanted the public to have access to the meeting.
Ed Smith, the president of the D.C. Fire Fighters Association, the local fire union, said it was "inappropriate" for the department to send out the press release. The union, which had representation at the trial board hearing, has long had tension with the fire department.
"They should have probably weighed out the possible outcomes as not to cause the family or the public anymore discomfort," Smith told City Desk this morning. "There should have been more forethought into it before they sent that press release."
The trial board's decision as to what disciplinary actions the lieutenant should face is still pending, and the chief said he has no control over when that verdict will be issued.
Mills' son angrily left Thursday's meeting before it ended and would not talk to reporters. Before he left, he told Ellerbe that he would like to speak face-to-face with the firefighters involved in his father's death.
"My mother doesn't have a husband. My sister doesn't have a father," the younger Mills' said. "This is the nation's capital, and it's supposed to be the flagship of everything this country stands for and it's not. "
Ellerbe did not respond directly to that request, but at one point said; "It's not easy for me [to be here,] trust me."
"For our department to not render service is something that I found unacceptable," he said.

As of Thursday, October 3, 2013
© Copyright 2015 Albany Herald
ALBANY — The Georgia Professional Standards Commission (PSC) has issued rulings in regard to 11 teachers and a former principal with the Dougherty County School System _ most of them concerned CRCT decisions in regard to DCSS employees caught up in the 2009 CRCT cheating scandal.
Six teachers, Debra Warren, Debora Anderson, Trina Faulkner and Elica Davis, all of Alice Coachman Elementary, Katrice Kegler of Jackson Heights Elementary and Betty Phelps of Sherwood Acres Elementary had their records cleared by the PSC decision. All but Phelps, who resigned resigned in 2011, remain as teachers within the DCSS.
The PSC also issued a reprimand to former Monroe High Principal Valerie Thomas, who remains employed by the DCSS as a parent coordinator.
The commission also suspended the certifications of former teachers — Patricia Alexander, Robert Bowman while Ebony Dawson received a reprimand — who are no longer with the system.
A state investigation into the CRCT exams administered to first- through eighth-graders in Atlanta and Dougherty County began in August 2010 at the direction of then-Gov. Sonny Perdue. At issue was an unusually high number of erasures on 2009 exams in which wrong answers were corrected.
State officials were concerned that at some of the schools there were too many of those corrections and eventually focused on Atlanta and Dougherty County.
The findings of state investigations into Atlanta's school districts were announced in July of 2011. Among other things, the governor's report found cheating in 44 of the 56 Atlanta schools examined and said that 178 teachers and principals in the schools had been involved in the cheating or should have known it was going on.
A preliminary probe in February of 2011 flagged the 56 Atlanta schools. Dougherty County had the state's second-highest number flagged with 14 of the system's then 16 elementary schools falling under suspicion . In all, 49 DCSS principals, administrators and teachers were named in the governor's report.
The probe led to massive resignations, firings and reassignments at the DCSS.
The school system eventually turned over all 49 case files to the PSA, which has reached decisions on many of the cases, leaving more than 25 yet to be decided.

Atheists Put Their Faith in Backlash of Politics; Fear of Radical Islam and Bush Policies Cited
Byline: Julia Duin, THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Not since the April 8, 1966, famous "Is God dead?" cover of Time magazine has atheism been the topic du jour.
"Atheism has come into vogue in cycles pretty reliably for the past 300 years," said Nick Gillespie, editor of Reason, a libertarian magazine. "These days, at least you won't get burned at the stake, and you might get a New York Times' best-seller."
A flood of post-September 11 books on the topic have done quite well. Among them are "Breaking the Spell" by Daniel Dennett, Michael Shermer's "Why Darwin Matters," Michel Onfray's "Atheist Manifesto," Sam Harris' "The End of Faith," Ibn Warraq's "Leaving Islam," biologist Richard Dawkins' "The God Delusion," and journalist and critic Christopher Hitchens' "God is Not Great."
Reasons for the surge range from a backlash against radical Islam to a general unhappiness with the Bush administration.
"The rise of militant Islam revived questions as to where does faith lead people?" Mr. Gillespie said. "It all proceeds from September 11, which in many profound ways was a religious act."
Plus, he added, the current administration has given religion-friendly policies a bad name.
"To the extent that this administration has been seen as a complete failure," he said, "on the right, you'll see a reach for a new kind of conservatism. It will have more in common with atheism that says religion should not be part of politics."
According to the American Religious Identification Survey, conducted by the Graduate Center of the City University of New York, the share of American adults who do not subscribe to any religion increased from 8 percent in 1990 to more than 14 percent - about 30 million people - in 2001.
"Forty-three percent of Americans don't attend church," said Paul Kurtz, founder and chairman of the Amherst, N.Y.-based Center for Inquiry. "A lot of people realize they don't believe in religion, and they don't want the state to meddle in private belief. They're looking to literature, ethics or philosophy to get guidance. …
