Proctor Silex Durable Blender 50125
The retro-styled, bright red Proctor Silex Durable Blender has 10 speeds with push buttons. A value buy, it will make decent smoothies and margaritas, but expect to stop and scrape around the blade to mix ingredients during blending and to find a few icy chunks in your drinks. Additionally, there was staining on the 48-ounce jar from making tomato sauce. Crevices between the buttons can make thorough cleaning a challenge.

Thai bus plunge kills 27Comment on this story
Bangkok - At least 27 people died and more than 20 others were injured late Monday when a bus careered off a hillside road and into a ravine in northern Thailand, police told AFP.
"The toll is now at 27 dead and 24 injured - they are severely injured from what I can see," police captain Sittichai Panyasong of Mae Tho district in Tak province said, revising up an earlier toll.
The accident took place at around 8:40 pm local time (1340 GMT) in Tak, which borders Myanmar.
A local hospital confirmed the number of dead at 27, adding most died at the scene.
"The brakes failed as the bus came downhill on a hilly road and it crashed through the concrete barrier and fell into 150 metre-deep ravine," Sittichai added.
The victims are all believed to be Thai local government officials on a work trip to neighbouring provinces, he said.
Thailand's roads are among the world's deadliest and accidents are common, especially on buses travelling late at night.
A recent report by the World Health Organization said Thailand saw some 38.1 road deaths per 100,000 people in 2010 - behind only the Dominican Republic in the Caribbean and the South Pacific island of Niue.
That compares with an average of 18.5 in Southeast Asia as a whole.

anybody agree? maybe 3 big sticks and 5 or 6 solid players.

vaughn was a big contributor that year but He struck out alot. another one of my favorites was jeffrey hammonds He would always get a clutch hit when we needed it.
We have no RH hitter like that on this current roster. If Ludwick of Frazier step it up it could be similar, but it would take an incredible second half to match Vaughn's numbers. Guy was a beast for us, imo.
Kinda, sorta. But that '99 team had a couple of guys that had unbelievable career years. Pokey, Eddie Taubensee, and Steve Paris come to mind. Casey had his best power numbers year as well. They also had a very deep bench. All that being said, I hope this team matches that team's win total.
...and this one belongs to the Reds.

Rep. Steve Cohen Jealous of Sarah Palin's SNL Invite
Last night, Saturday Night Live celebrated 40 years on the air, presumably because, given the ten more years required to reach a real milestone, everyone's pickled livers would have given out, rendering the show forced to celebrate it's awkward 1980s downturn instead of it's 1970s heyday. In attendance were some of the show's brightest stars, celebrities who've made multiple hosting appearances, iconic musical acts and Sarah Palin.
It's understandable, of course, that the show would welcome it's most famous target, especially since Tina Fey's Sarah Palin impression is almost inseperable from most people's idea of who Sarah Palin actually is. Sarah, for her part, wore her daughter's dress and poked fun at herself in a way very few politicians are able to do. But while her appearance generally suprised and delighted audiences, at least one sitting Congressional representative was incensed that she snagged an invite while his got lost in the mail.

Fav salad dressing
I mix grainy mustard, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, and a tbsp of flax seed oil for a nice dressing.

Here's one that I made a couple of weeks ago, and really liked:
1 cup of fat free plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup of skim milk, and 1 packet of dry Hidden Valley Ranch dressing mix. Whisk until lumps are gone, it thickens up after being in the fridge a while. According to Recipe Builder, the ENTIRE recipe is 5 pp. 2 T is 0 pp, and 4 T is 1 pp.
2 kiddos: 4/28/10 & 9/8/89
Marie Callender's Yogurt dressings are my absolute favorites. 2 pt for 2 TBSP!! And they aren't sweet like most FF dressings. The ranch and the parmesan caesar are my favorites. They are in the refrigerated section near the produce usually.
Miso Dressing (Sesame Seed )from Galeos. There are several of them and are delicious. It's only 1pt for 2 tbsp. THey are a little pricey at $6.00 or more a bottle but so worth it. Enjoy!

Southside's Josh Strauch runs the ball as New Palestine's Brian Wagner tackles him. Southside fell 53-0 to New Palestine in sectional football Friday at Southside.
- Filed Under
First-year Southside football head coach Wenstone Nash told his players before kickoff Friday that their game was about more than just the present, it was about every player who preceded them in wearing the Rebel jersey.
"I just said, 'Leave everything on the field because this very well could be the last time you wear that jersey on this field as a Southside Rebel,' " said Nash, a Southside alum.
His players did just that, but it didn't make a difference on the scoreboard. Vastly superior New Palestine scored 47 points on the Rebels in the first half and cruised to a 53-0 Class 4A Sectional 21 ...

As stated previously - roller transport machine.
First clean the machine. Take out the rollers, then the turbulator plates - those are the flat plates that the chemicals are pumped over to make a thin laminar flow of chemicals. The will either be stepped or have small "pins" that stick up.
Take the end caps off of the stainless portion of the turbulators and look down & make sure there are no obstructions and that all of the holes in the stainless diffuser arre open.
Clean the rollers, clean the turbulator plates. I like to use a weak PhotoFlo in water solution and a very soft nylon brush on both the plates and rollers. There may be some silver plating on the roller after the developer tank and inside the developer tank. That's okay - not much you can do about it.
Rinse the tanks out with warm water & make sure the drain hoses are not plugged. Put everything back together & fill it with warm water. Turn the machine on and make sure you have water flowing over the turbulator plates.
Put the top back on the machine and let it run for 30 minutes. Check the first tank (developer) to make sure it is at 80F - 83F. Now you will know if the heater is working.
I like to run the chemicals at 85F. You can easily adjust the temperature. If you are facing the loading door end of the machine with the cover off, there will be a small cap on the top, left side of the machine. Pop the cap off. You will see a screw driver adjustment on the end of a small rod. That's the temperature control. Clockwise = hotter. You won't have to adjust it much to get it to 85F. Let the machine run with the top on again for about 20 minutes to make sure it's at 85F.
The three tanks are: developer (1), bleach (2), fixer (3). They each take 2 liters. Purchase the chemicals as the P-30 kit.
When you are ready to print, mix up the chemicals and load the tanks. If you're careful, you can take the top off and pour them directly into the tanks - don't splash or you can contaminate the chemistry.
Put everything back together - turn it on and wait 30 minutes for the machine to warm up and stabilize the chemistry temperature.
Expose the paper - load it into the machine emulsion side down. Once the paper is pulled into the loading area. You can close that door and turn on the lights - it's light tight.
Wait for the machine to spit the prints out at the other end. Wash the print for 5-7 minutes, squeegee off BOTH sides. Dry with a hair dryer (work prints) as the print will change color. Dry BOTH sides. The print will look red in the shadows until dry. If the back of the print is wet there will be a light magenta cast to the wet area.
The chemistry will process 32 8x10 inch prints (or equivalent in square inches). The chemistry will actually work better after about three 8x10's are run because the developer needs some silver in it. Run test prints at the beginning, run good prints in the middle (prints 4 - 20), run more test prints again at the end - the colors will shift very slightly towards the end of a run (about 5cc red) so you want to be doing exposure tests and basic filtration tests at the end of a run.
You can leave the chemistry in the machine over night - I wouldn't leave it longer than that - the developer oxidizes.

No Use for a Name, a cornerstone band of Fat Wreck Chords, needs no introduction. Back in 2007, we compiled All the Best Songs, a collection of tunes commemorating the band's illustrious career up to that point. Since that time, of course, the band came to an end after the tragic passing of their singer and songwriter, Tony Sly, but not before releasing what would be their final album, the resurgent and critically acclaimed The Feel Good Record of the Year. So in order to fully encapsulate the band's career on FAT, All the Best Songs has been thoughtfully updated to include tracks from that 2008 album. With brand new artwork and massive photo collages, All the Best Songs is now the definitive NUFAN collection. Additionally, All the Best Songs will be getting its vinyl debut, so be sure to check back as we'll announce the pre-order soon! If you missed our FAT 25 SF bash, check out this video of the amazing set from No Use and Friends.
Our "Fat Tuesday" series concludes tomorrow night when Strung Out makes their late night TV debut on NBC's Last Call With Carson Daly! Tune in at 1:35AM (12:35C)!
Alright. What is the deal here? Did we not pay these people off enough? What's with all these 4.5 outta 5 and 9.5 outta 10?! We want the other half a star, goddammit! But seriously, we are thrilled folks are digging the new Night Birds album, Mutiny at Muscle Beach, as much as we do. Night Birds kick off a string of record release shows today in Chicago, supporting Dillinger Four no less. And if you happen spot these dudes in an airport this weekend, buy them a drink! They'll be touring off and on the rest of the year, including FEST 14! Head over to Spotify or Bandcamp to listen to the album then order your copy today! Check out what vocalist Brain Gorsegner had to say about their latest effort below:
Punk rock is still alive and well in 2015, and we're excited to be a part of it. We hope you get some decent mileage out of this little platter and you feel it was worth your hard earned dough. We started off wondering if we could make a third album at all, but I believe the end result to be our best output yet and I'm really proud of the time and effort we put into it. Thanks for checking it out and we hope ya dig it. We are going to be all over the map over the course of the next 12 months so come out to a show and say hi!
So a blog for a Pacific Northwest
football soccer team is raving about a New Jersey-based hardcore surf-punk band and their new record, not ironically calling them "the greatest punk band that you have possibly never heard of." We've either entered into some sort of twilight zone or Night Birds and Mutiny at Muscle Beach really are just that fucking great. So we're super stoked to finally be able to share the new album with the entire universe, courtesy of Impose! The album is a full on assault of the senses, an experience that demands to be followed by the visceral experience of a Night Birds live show. Lucky for all of you, Night Birds head out with Dillinger Four this weekend for the first round of record release shows and will be properly supporting the record for the rest of 2015 and all throughout 2016. Vocalist Brian Gorsegner explains, "We're basically just gonna try to destroy ourselves in the next 12 months," he concludes. "This is what we do for fun and to keep sane and mentally balanced. It's the only thing we really know how to do. If somehow punk rock finds a way to be 1994 again and make us money, that's cool, but if we expected that stuff to happen, we'd stop playing in bands 10 years ago. It's a nice balance of trying to keep myself sane doing what I've done since I was 14 and not letting my baby starve to death." If you haven't checked out their latest video of "Mutiny at Muscle Beach" do yourself a favor and watch their blood run dry. Then, grab a copy of their new full-length today!
It's official, Lagwagon is goin' south next year! Their long-awaited return to South America will commence on February 26, 2016 in Brazil. Check out the full tour schedule, including where to grab tickets, right here! Read what Joey Cape had to say about returning to South America below!
"Very excited that Lagwagon is coming back to South America in late February, early March. We'll be touring with the bands Belvedere and Mute. We're coming to Chile, Argentina, Peru, Brazil and for the first time, Columbia. Come hang out with us!"

Many of you will know about my love for Khan's Bargain Ltd. It's one of the best shops in Peckham; so good in fact that I felt moved to write a whole post about it. Recently, a reader left a comment on that post saying that Mr. Khan has sadly passed away. I went down myself to verify this and sure enough, there was a sign behind the counter. The man who gave his name to such an endearingly chaotic shop is no longer with us.
I considered ways to pay tribute to Mr. K and his Emporium of Random and it seemed fitting to create a sandwich à la Khan's because there have been oh so many over the past few years. I've stuffed them with various bits of cheese or vegetables depending on my mood; creamy labneh with slender crisp slices of baby cucumber perhaps, a slick of muhammara or a dollop of baba ganoush. Always a big handful of fresh herbs.
The sesame speckled flat breads they sell are incredible, so soft and moist. I split one and layered it with aleppo pepper paste (a spicy blend made almost entirely from aleppo pepper and chillies), silky fried aubergine slices, pan scorched halloumi and plenty of coriander. It was a cracking sandwich; base chilli heat, juicy aubergines and salty cheese is a winning combo. Some of the best Khan's ingredients all together. I didn't know Mr. Khan personally, but I know his shop inside out; it's one of the reasons I fell head over heels for Peckham 5 years ago and it's one of the reasons I continue to relish shopping here. Rest in peace, Mr. Khan, your customers remain loyal and your shop, the most charming ramshackle arrangement of groceries, home wares and plastic animals on Rye Lane.
Sandwich à la Khan's Bargain Ltd. (makes 2)
2 round soft flat breads
Aleppo paste (if you can't get this, use another spicy paste, such as harissa or make a paste with red peppers, chilli and oil)
1 packet halloumi cheese
1 large aubergine, sliced into 2cm sliced
Very finely sliced red onion
Plain flour
Oil, for frying
A handful of fresh coriander leaves
Heat some oil to a depth of about 1cm in a heavy based frying pan. Spread some flour out on a plate and dust each aubergine slice in it, then drop into the hot oil. You will need to do this in batches so as not to crowd the pan. Keep the cooked aubergine slices on a plate covered with kitchen paper in a low oven while you finish cooking the rest. When all the aubergines are cooked, keep them all in the oven while you fry the halloumi.
To fry the halloumi, slice it thickly then drop into a dry pan until golden on both sides.
Warm the flatbreads briefly, then split them in half and spread with pepper paste. Layer on the halloumi, aubergines, onion and fresh coriander. Serve immediately.

Aleppo pepper paste! Is this available in Khans? If so I need to brave the 37 bus and get me to Peckham asap.
RIP Mr Khan Sounds like a lovely and delicious way to remember him.
I've never heard about Mr Khan, but this sadwich seems delicious. I will test it. RIP Mr Khan.
Aubergine, tick. Halloumi, tick. Flatbread, tick. Coriander, tick. That is one ticketyboom sandwich. RIP Mr Khan.
After reading the first Khan post and this one, I now feel quite sad about Mr Khan.
But still, what a fitting sandwich to honour the memory of Mr Khan.
I love Khan's so much. And this might be the sandwich to sway me to aubergine that hasn't been blended with other stuff. I'm not wild on the texture generally…
I don't know why I've not thought to combine aubergine and halloumi in a sandwich before. Brilliant.
They do look wonderful; as it happens, I'm craving flavours like this at the moment; maybe it's the hint of sun we've been enjoying. I love making flats and this just gives me more inspiration. Thanks!
That's sad news that Mr Khan has died. feel certain his emporium has now taken on a life of its own and will memorialise him and his magpie tastes in goods. Sandwich sounds excellent – love those giant flat breads they sell. never tried the Aleppo sauce and definitely need to get my hands on some next time I'm there.
What a brilliant, moving article. I am sure Mr Khan is smiling to himself and that his family, friends and staff who see this article will be moved too. Not a great aubergine fan myself but I know I would enjoy the rest of the sandwich!
Sounds like Mr.Khan will be missed. What a brilliant sandwich you have created, I bet his family would be proud! x
RIP Mr Khan. Safe travels to the great, vast, sprawling random shop in the sky.
RIP Mr Khan – Ah I think it's sweet dedicating a sandwich in tribute… I shall revisit your old posts and go to Peckham ASAP. I liked Persepolis for starters.
Lovely tribute to Mr Khan. That sandwich looks amazing – you had me at aubergine.
Oh hello, I think there's a bit of halloumi at the back of the fridge who's fate has just been sealed.
PS I made your beef goulash for the mother-in-law at the weekend, serious brownie points
PPS …and I had that sizzling prawn dish from AOL for on Saturday too, brilliant to enjoy in the garden with a cheeky lunchtime beer.
What a fitting memorial – those flat breads look gorgeous.
Tara x
What a lovely post to remember him by. And a lovely sandwich too.
Hope the shop is taken on by family members, and is able to remain in business going forward.

Article: Successful pregnancy after intracytoplasmic sperm injection with testicular spermatozoa transported only under refrigeration[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: PurposeThis case report describes two successful pregnancies after intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) with testicular spermatozoa that were transported under refrigeration. MethodsTwo first-time couples consulted our clinic concerned about their primary infertility. No sperm were present in the semen samples from either of the husbands and they were referred to the urology department (UD) of a neighbouring hospital. At the UD, seminiferous tubules were obtained by testicular sperm extraction. The tissue samples were put in a centrifuge tube with phosphate-buffered saline at 6°C and placed with refrigerant in a cushioned styrofoam box that was then transported to our clinic. Immediately upon arrival at our clinic, testicular spermatozoa were extracted. On the same day, ovum pickup was performed and mature oocytes were extracted that were then inseminated by conventional ICSI. Fertilized eggs were cultured for 2days, and then cleaved embryos were cryopreserved. In one case after 4months and in the other case after 2months of cryopreservation, the frozen-thawed embryos were transferred. ResultBoth patients became pregnant and normal, healthy babies were born. ConclusionsThese results suggest that cases of obstructive azoospermia can be treated with ICSI by refrigerated transport of the seminiferous tubules, in cooperation with a UD, in a small single departmental obstetrics and gynecology clinic. KeywordsIntracytoplasmic sperm injection-Obstructive azoospermia-Refrigerated transport-Seminiferous tubules-Testicular sperm extractionReproductive Medicine and Biology 09/2010; 9(3):173-177.

Okafor deserving of top billing
Eric Bossi
Rivals.com Basketball Recruiting
Over the weekend, Chicago powers Simeon and Whitney Young partnered to help make the first ever Chicago Elite Showcase happen.
Overall, the results in year No. 1 were very good. We learned a lot over the weekend and one of Chitown's finest, Jahlil Okafor, played up to his top billing.
Deserving of No. 1
There will certainly be plenty of competition as the class of 2014 makes its way to the finish line. For now, though, Jahlil Okafor is the nation's No. 1 player in the class of 2014 and he showed why at the CEC.
What we are seeing with Okafor is the type of player that we just don't see very often. There just haven't been many center prospects over the past 5-6 years that have the same combination of size, hands and back-to-the-basket scoring ability that the 6-foot-10 junior has to offer.
Playing at highly visible Chicago (Ill.) Whitney Young, the lights are shining on Okafor and he proved again over the weekend that he's capable of delivering.
His 35 points and nine rebounds against Hyatsville (Md.) DeMatha came with ease. Never out of control, never forcing things, Okafor did his work with physicality and skill.
Duke, Illinois, Michigan State, Ohio State, Arizona, Kentucky, Kansas and many others would love to land the junior who is projecting as an impact player in the low post.
Wherever Okafor goes, he's got the early lead in the race to be the top player in 2014.
Needing time
In the state of Ohio, and around the country, there are already very high hopes for freshman V.J. King.
A 6-foot-5 wing at Akron (Ohio) St. Vincent-St. Mary, King is an impressive-looking prospect who has both skill and athleticism. King can handle the ball pretty well, is an excellent jump-shooter off the dribble and has a natural way about making plays on both ends of the floor.
King has an ideal frame for a wing and is pretty good laterally. But again, he's just a freshman and our hope is that expectations for him don't get out of control even though he looks likely to be five-star prospect.
King will need to learn to attack the rim a little more and to not settle as much for deep jumpers. But, the feel for how to attack defenders and mix things up will come with time and his instincts are great.
So far, King reports scholarship offers from Ohio State, Wisconsin, UNC Greensboro, Charlotte and Iowa State and more are likely to come.
With those offers will come more expectations but hopefully people will be reasonable and remember that while talented, King will still have some growing pains.
Tough guy
A lot of guys talk about toughness on the floor. They say they like creating contact and playing with physicality. The fact is, there just aren't many high school players who truly embrace a physical style of play.
Eric Mika of Highland (Utah) Lone Peak is one dude who does.
Headed to BYU the four-star senior is a well-built 6-foot-8 interior player. A fine athlete who runs from end to end and has good hands, Mika has skill and isn't just some brawler who cleans up the garbage in the lane.
However, it is Mika's willingness to brawl -- within the rules of the game -- in the low post that makes him so fun to watch. He makes sure that his opponent always knows he's there and he plays with fire and confidence.
Ranked No. 72 in the class of 2013, Mika will be a welcome addition in Provo.

Eastside students invited to join Senate page program
December 26, 2014
NEW — 6 a.m. Dec. 26, 2014
Students between the ages of 14 and 16 are invited to participate in the Senate page program, where each year hundreds of students from throughout Washington state get a firsthand look at how the legislative process works.
"The page program is an incredible educational opportunity and a great chance to learn from other students from different parts of the state," said Sen. Steve Litzow, who represents Mercer Island, Bellevue, Beaux Arts, Issaquah, Newcastle, Renton and Sammamish. "Being able to participate directly in the legislative process can inspire our state's future leaders."
Legislators improve attendance in legislative, special session votes
July 16, 2013
In the 2013 legislative session for Washington, state Rep. Jay Rodne was No. 7 on the list of most missed votes of state lawmakers.
WashingtonVotes.org tabulates and reports the information annually. The nonpartisan, nonprofit organization has been doing so every year since 2002.
Six local legislators missed fewer than three sessions.

Lawmakers to discuss dollars for schools at forum
January 15, 2013
The public can hear from top education and budget leaders in the Legislature about the funding challenges facing public schools Jan. 22 at a League of Education Voters forum.
The organization, a statewide education advocacy group, invited a Democrat, state Rep. Ross Hunter, and a Republican, state Sen. Steve Litzow, to discuss competing visions for education funding in Washington.
Residents can listen to the Eastside lawmakers — Litzow is a Mercer Island resident; Hunter hails from Medina — at the King County Library System Administration Building.
The incoming Senate Early Learning & K-12 Education Committee chairman, Litzow, represents Issaquah and other communities in the 41st Legislative District, a suburban swath between lakes Washington and Sammamish.
Democrats dominate Issaquah voters' choices
January 1, 2013
Strong get-out-the vote operation boosts candidates
Democrats dominated Issaquah in the November election.
City voters chose Democrats for every federal and statewide office on the ballot — sometimes by a broad margin and others by a handful of votes.
Issaquah overwhelmingly supported Democrats in the races for president and vice president, U.S. senator and U.S. representative, and every statewide office. Only incumbent Republican Steve Litzow, a 41st Legislative District state senator representing about half of Issaquah, earned support from a majority of voters inside city limits.
How did Issaquah vote?
January 1, 2013
City-level results from the November election show Issaquah voters followed statewide trends on some issues, or occasionally chose another direction.
Issaquah legislators receive key commitee assignments
December 26, 2012
NEW — 6 a.m. Dec. 26, 2012
Local lawmakers received or retained influential committee assignments — and the ability to shape state policy on education, transportation and other priorities — in the next legislative session.
Recent changes in how the state Senate operates changed prospective roles for local legislators. Though Democrats claim more members in the Senate, Republicans announced a plan in early December to instead put a bipartisan caucus in place to run the chamber.
With help from Sens. Rodney Tom, D-Medina, and Tim Sheldon, D-Potlach, Republicans received a 25-24 majority. Under the proposal, Tom is poised to serve as majority leader and oust Democrats' chosen majority leader, Sen. Ed Murray, D-Seattle. (Until redistricting last year, Tom, a former Republican, represented some Issaquah neighborhoods.)
In local legislative contests, outside spending reshapes races
November 27, 2012
Issaquah Democrat Mark Mullet raised $315,166 in the race to represent Issaquah in the state Senate and garnered 36,630 votes throughout the 5th Legislative District.
The total raised amounts to about $8.60 per vote for the ubiquitous campaign mailers, yard signs and TV spots, and online advertising in Mullet's successful race against Snoqualmie Republican Brad Toft.
Toft collected $306,599 and received 30,683 votes districtwide — or about $9.99 per vote.
How much did Issaquah legislative candidates raise?
November 27, 2012
The candidates to represent Issaquah in Olympia raised a combined $1.5 million to fund legislative campaigns.
Steve Litzow, Marcie Maxwell prevail in 41st Legislative District
November 13, 2012
Incumbents triumphed in the race to represent Issaquah and other 41st Legislative District communities.
Steve Litzow, a freshman Republican state senator from Mercer Island, outpaced Mercer Island Democrat Maureen Judge. Renton Democrat Marcie Maxwell, a state representative elected in 2008 and re-elected in 2010, cruised to commanding victory against Issaquah Republican Tim Eaves, a novice candidate.
Issaquah's Cougar Mountain neighborhoods and North Issaquah fall inside the district, a suburban swath stretched from Mercer Island to Sammamish.
Litzow said the outcome reflected the district's moderate character. Redistricting last year removed part of Renton and added part of Sammamish to the district.

Hi Everyone,
Even though my wife is due in June with our twins boys, I would like to get the ball rolling with ideas for a "push present"! Does ayone have any good ideas that would be very special? Price doesn't matter...
Hi Everyone,
Even though my wife is due in June with our twins boys, I would like to get the ball rolling with ideas for a "push present"! Does ayone have any good ideas that would be very special? Price doesn't matter...
My BF just got her diamond upgraded in her engagement ring. I thought that was a great idea! Especially if you aren't too worried about price. If she already has a huge rock though, maybe some diamond studs?
( . )( . ) Double Platinum!
It is basically a present for saying she rocked it during labor!
I have no idea what a push present is. However, I am going to make my husband a present that I would love to receive. It's going to be a book of "Our Love Story". I think there are places online (including walmart) where you can create a book - write your own story, upload pictures, etc. I'm going to write the story of how we fell in love, etc. up until the baby comes. I have no idea if this fits the idea of a "push" present, but if not - it's a good idea for an anniversary, valentine's day, or just any time.
DS born July 2009 and DD born Nov 27, 2011
My husband is getting me this:
He asked my opinion of it this weekend and I told him that I love it!! I have a ruby ring from my first baby who was born in July. I love that this ring has the pearl (June birth stone) and also has the pink for our baby girl!
Nicole - mama to J ('07), G ('09), G ('12) & A ('15)
DH got me diamond earrings with DS#1. It was my c-section present...hahaha.
I think jewelry is the best because it does last a lifetime. Especially if you get inscribed with something.
I'm gunning for a pearl ring. I've wanted one for a while and it's fitting that it will (probably) be her birthstone.
I think I am getting an "anniversary band" for the other side of my diamond engagement ring (wedding bands on the other side). And it's not a "push present" it's a delayed Mothers Day gift. My husband thought the push present title was tacky.
I'd go with jewelry if I were you. :-) Is she a jewelry person? I think something with the baby's birthstone would be perfect.

A Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc., manufacturing facility in North Carolina has geared up to produce pandemic influenza vaccine made from mammalian cell lines, rather than from the traditional hen egg-based methods that have been used for more than 50 years. The plant, open since November 2009, was dedicated in a December 12 ceremony after Novartis submitted a Biological License Application for the vaccine to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. The cell-based system and production methods are similar to those that have been licensed and used for seasonal influenza vaccine in Europe since 2007. More
It's National Influenza Vaccination Week, and we're taking a look back to 1918, the time of the "Spanish" influenza pandemic. When the illness emerged, several useful vaccines had already been developed: smallpox, typhoid fever, and rabies, for example. Scientists and physicians tried many different approaches to develop influenza vaccines during the pandemic even though the cause of influenza was not clear. We look at several of them below.
No other epidemic has claimed as many lives as the Spanish influenza epidemic in 1918-1919. Worldwide, at least 40 million people died as this virulent illness swept through city after city (some estimates put total deaths closer to 70 million). Newspaper reports described people dying within hours of first feeling ill. The case fatality rate was highest among adults under age 50, who were, for unknown reasons, particularly vulnerable to serious disease resulting from this strain of influenza.
The first reported cases of an unusual influenza appeared in U.S. Army camps in Kansas in early spring 1918. Later that spring, officials reported large numbers of cases from Europe, though this flu did not seem particularly dangerous. However, influenza became more deadly in late summer. Soon waves of infection moved through towns, nations, and continents, overwhelming hospitals and medical personnel. Because of wartime censorship, reports of influenza were not widely distributed, but news from Spain continued to flow. The name Spanish influenza came from the devastating effects of the flu in Spain in autumn 1918. More
Nearly a year ago, the History of Vaccines blog covered the introduction of MenAfriVac (PsA-TT) to the African meningitis belt, an area stretching from Senegal to Ethiopia, where epidemic waves of meningitis occur and can last up to three years. In the largest of these epidemic waves in history, meningitis killed more than 25,000 people from 1996 to 1997. MenAfriVac, a vaccine against the Group A type of meningococci bacteria that causes 80 to 85% of meningitis cases in the African epidemics, was the result of a collaboration between the World Health Organization (WHO) and PATH. The first vaccine developed specifically for use in Africa, it was introduced last year in Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger, with almost 20 million people aged 1 to 29 (the age range most at risk) being vaccinated.
In June, the History of Vaccines blog reported that all three countries were reporting record lows in confirmed Group A meningitis cases during an epidemic season. Now the vaccine is being introduced to three more African countries: Cameroon, Chad, and Nigeria. More
Rubella vaccine developer and History of Vaccines advisor Stanley A. Plotkin, MD, appeared on CSPAN's Washington Journal on Thursday, 11/3/2011, to discuss the history of vaccination and the government's role in regulating vaccines. Dr. Plotkin described the long history of vaccination (and early immunization practices) in colonial America and United States, beginning with smallpox variolation. A number of callers then phoned in with questions about vaccine safety, how vaccines are tested, and whether Andrew Wakefield's work attempting to link MMR vaccination to autism has been vindicated. He also countered one caller's claim that new childhood vaccines are not tested as part of the complete immunization schedule by describing concomitant use studies that ensure that safety and immunogenicity are not compromised with the addition of new vaccines. More
Stanley A. Plotkin, MD, vaccine developer and History of Vaccines advisor, will appear Thursday, 11/3, on C-SPAN's Washington Journal around 9:15 am EDT. Dr. Plotkin will be discussing the history of vaccination and the role of the governement in supporting research and regulating vaccine production. You can watch live on C-SPAN, or live online at http://www.c-span.org/Series/Washington-Journal/. This is a call-in program, so please phone in to ask Dr. Plotkin questions about the history of vaccines. The program will be archived at the Washington Journal website, so if you miss the live show, you'll be able to view it later. More
The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine has been recommended as part of the routine vaccination schedule for girls aged 11-12 since 2006 for the prevention of cervical cancer. In 2009, the FDA licensed the vaccine for use in males aged 9-26 years for the prevention of genital warts caused by two types of HPV, but the vaccine was not yet recommended for boys as part of the routine immunization schedule.
Meeting today at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices voted to recommend routine immunization against HPV for boys at age 11-12. ACIP members, experts selected by the Secretary of the United States Department of Health and Human Services, develop the recommendations that are used in the U.S. Recommended Childhood, Adolescent and Adult Immunization Schedules.

On October 12, the Philadelphia Neurological Society held one of its regular meetings at The College of Physicians of Philadelphia and invited Paul A. Offit, MD, to speak to the membership. Offit, chief of infectious diseases at The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), vaccine developer, and advisor to The History of Vaccines, greeted the membership with his first slide and title of his talk: "Why are neurologists scared of vaccines?" Though Offit's title was tongue-in-cheek, it spoke to a tension he has perceived between neurology and vaccinology. More
A study published in the October 3, 2011, issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology reveals a startling rise in the rate of head and neck cancers related to human papillomavirus (HPV). The study looked at specimens from 271 throat cancers (specifically oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas, or OPSCC) collected over 20 years. The researchers found that HPV prevalence in the cancers increased from 16.3% during 1984 to 1989 to 71.7% during 2000 to 2004. They note that "The overall rise in OPSCC incidence during 1984 to 2004 is largely explained by the increasing incidence of HPV-positive cancers, whereas incidence of HPV-negative cancers declined." The decline in non-HPV related oropharyngeal cancers, which are usually related to tobacco or alcohol use, is likely a result of lower tobacco exposure. The HPV-related cancers, as opposed to the non-HPV-related cancers, were more likely to occur in younger, male, and white individuals. The authors speculate that the increased incidence "perhaps arises from increased oral sex and oral HPV exposure over calendar time." More
In honor of World Rabies Day, we'd like to draw attention to two rabies vaccines recently found in the collection of the Mütter Museum of The College of Physicians of Philadelphia. Museum curator Anna Dhody recently alerted us to a box of vaccines and other medical supplies she found in a little-visited storage area in the museum basement. The box belonged to a collection of medical equipment donated by James G. Kitchen II, MD (d. 1998), who was a Pocono Lake, Pennsylvania, physician and fellow of The College of Physicians of Philadelphia. Dr. Kitchen stocked the vaccine in his office supplies to address what was probably a fairly uncommon need in his practice: post-exposure rabies prophylaxis in humans. More
Going to the movies is a time-honored way of getting away from the vagaries of work and home life and inhabiting a different and exotic place. I don't know if car mechanics can really enjoy chase movies or cowboys can appreciate Westerns, but as a specialist in Infectious Diseases, I rarely get a chance to see someone plying my trade inside the multiplex. There are spoilers ahead, so read on cautiously if you have not yet seen Contagion and plan to go.
The new Steven Soderbergh movie, Contagion, is a fairly realistic guesstimate of what might happen if a highly contagious, new infectious agent started moving around the world and destroying people willy nilly like a marauding tornado. While there has never been an infection quite like "MEV-1" as depicted in Contagion, the question of how we would respond as a medical community and as a society is a worthy one to address. Whether the answer is right or wrong – well, let's hope we never find out.
From an Infectious Diseases angle, the infection in Contagion is crafted to be highly transmissible and fatal. This would be like a hybrid of the 1918-1919 pandemic flu, Nipah virus and SARS. The end of the movie shows the mechanism via which MEV-1 began to infect humans, and it is highly reminiscent of Nipah and SARS. Thus has some built-in credibility as it builds on diseases that we already understand. It is also eerily reminiscent of the most recent big flu outbreak (A/California/2009 H1N1) where the virus contained elements that came from birds, pigs and people. The rapidity of spread lends the movie much of its terror, but is not far off the rapidity of spread of influenza. Similarly, the incubation period and time to death is also reminiscent of the 1918-1919 pandemic flu. So the film-makers have done their homework and created a plausible disaster scenario. More

That's gotta hurt! Kanye West's $750,000 Lamborghini, a birthday gift from girlfriend Kim Kardashian, was hit by her electric front gate in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
According to TMZ, the 35-year-old rapper wasn't driving the luxury vehicle at the time of the incident, which was caught on camera.
PHOTOS: Why Kim and Kanye are the perfect match
The Lamborghini Aventador LP 700-4 was being delivered to the home by a driver after getting serviced, when the front gate began closing on the car. The high-end automobile was smushed on both sides before it pulled inside the driveway.

TMZ reports that a repair shop quickly sent a mechanic to the home to check out the extent of the damage.

The mishap comes several days after the "Mercy" rapper sustained an injury himself. On May 10, West was photographed accidentally walking into a street poll while house-hunting with Kardashian, 32. But his pregnant girlfriend -- demonstrating her maternal gifts -- gave him a kiss on the forehead.

The Team of 18,000 made its feelings known Thursday night.
Antii Miettinen concurred.
"They were right," he said. "It was deserved."
Coach Jacques Lemaire also concurred.
"Yeah, the crowd," Lemaire nodded. "And the players, too, and the coaches."
Jacques was booing, too?
"Let's say I was yelling," he said.
The object of everyone's displeasure was Minnesota's power play, which was awful. Just awful.
"Like I didn't know," Lemaire said.
The Wild went a ghastly 0 for 10 while with a man advantage. They even had almost four full minutes with a two-man advantage. Once, the Montreal Canadiens had two men in the box serving penalties and another waiting to serve a penalty, because you can't play five on two. Not that the Wild could have scored while five on two. But it's against the rules.
And yet the Wild floundered and lost 2-1. If they had scored just once with the extra man it might have been a different story. The crowd was ticked.
It was like the old days, when I'd drink three or four cups of coffee in the press box and then wait for the Wild to go on the power play before using the men's room. That way, I knew I wouldn't miss anything.
"We waited a little too long sometimes," Miettinen said. "Other times we could have waited a little longer."
Which just about covers it. When the Wild did get a good shot while on a power play, they often missed the net. Sometimes, they missed by a lot. I thought the organist was going to put on a helmet, just to be safe.
Afterward, Mikko Koivu was steaming. He took a penalty right off the faceoff to cancel what would have been yet another Wild power play. And now that I think of it, that probably was a good thing. He also was involved in a couple of ugly scrums near the Montreal goal.
"We just couldn't score," he fumed. "When things aren't going like you want them to, it's always frustrating. It's not any excuse. If you can't get the puck on the net, it's tough to score. We have to work on that."
After three instances of five on three and nothing to show, the cash customers were fed up. A pat on the back wasn't spurring the team to a better performance. So they tried a kick in the butt.
"Especially after the five on threes," Miettinen said. "We did not do a very good job on that."
The question is whether this is an isolated incident or whether it's a symptom of a larger problem. The Wild have lost two in a row. What's for sure is that Lemaire needs a second scoring line. He can't keep getting the vast majority of his goals from the Miettinen-Koivu-Brunette trio. But with Owen Nolan injured and Marian Gaborik still out, he doesn't have a lot of possibilities.
It has been seven consecutive games with no sign of Gaborik, not even during hard practices. His "lower body" injury is complicating everything. There always are scouts on hand at Wild games trying to envision Gaborik in their home colors. How would he fit in? With which center would he play? So far, all they can do is envision him not in the lineup.
More immediately, Lemaire needs him to take the pressure off the aforementioned trio. Plus, Gabby would have looked really good on the power play Thursday night. Doug Risebrough says we'll all be seeing Gaborik soon.
"I think he's going to play," the Wild's president and general manager said. "He's getting close."
But it's a tricky situation. If Gaborik comes back too early and reinjures himself, then everything is screwed up. The Wild can't play him, and they won't be able to trade him. That's a lose-lose deal.
"I'll know more tomorrow," Lemaire said after the game. "Right now, I think you know more than I do."
All I know is that I'll never see another 0 for 10 on the power play as long as I live. It's just so hard to do. In fact, the Wild tied a team record with their futile performance last night.
The Xcel crowd really said it best: "Booooooo."
