|Tom Hoefling launches 99 county tour; after one week, no response from Gov. Branstad on Hoefling debate challenge
|News Releases - Politics & Elections
|Written by Tom Hoefling
|Wednesday, 26 March 2014 08:25
Republican gubernatorial candidate Tom Hoefling today announced the launch of a 99 county tour of Iowa.
"We have already worked very extensively in several dozen counties during the petitioning process, so all we will really be doing is continuing the work of taking this grassroots campaign directly to the people of our state," he said.
Details are being finalized, and will be made available daily on the campaign website. (http://www.tomhoefling.com)
One week ago, on March 16th, Tom Hoefling challenged incumbent Governor Terry Branstad to a series of five debates in the run up to the June 3rd primary.
Hoefling said, "In seven days, we have heard nothing back from the Governor or his campaign. As the challenger, I've done my part. Now the ball is in his court."

Blog: All Things Olympics
John Meyer and fellow Post reporters post analysis, notes and minutiae on this blog devoted to the Olympics.
BOISE, Idaho —Evelyn Stevens of Boulder won the Exergy Tour following a final-stage breakaway, cementing her claim to a berth on the U.S. Olympic team for the London Games.
Stevens took second place in a sprint with Germany's Claudia Haeusler after the 46.7-mile stage. But the 29-year-old Stevens finished far enough ahead of the pack to beat Amber Neben, of Lake Forest, Calif., for the overall title.
Stevens, a former Wall Street associate, takes home $10,000 for the overall win. She bought her first racing bike in 2008 and then became a cycling phenomenon.
"It's an honor to race here and it's an honor to represent the United States, hopefully," Stevens said. "I'm a little bit later to the sport of cycling, so hope- fully people can hear my story and realize it's never too late or never too early."
USA Cycling makes its selection June 15. The United States likely will field a team of four riders, two of whom will ride the London time trial.
"I kind of just did everything I could this offseason," Stevens said, "and this race season, I put my head down and let my legs do the speaking. If they have done enough speaking, to get me the spot, great. If not, then I think we have amazing women in America that can represent the U.S."
After the victory, Stevens said she had no regrets about leaving the investment fund where she worked until 2009.
"This is a lot better than investment banking," she said.

Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the Madrid Super Saver: El Escorial Monastery and Aranjuez Royal Palace Day Trip from Madrid. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.

Duayne K
El Escorial is a beautiful structure.
The Valley of the Fallen is something you have to see to understand the scale of the place, it is enormous.
It is hard to think of the majesty of the setting and the grander of the basilica, and know that it was all done on orders of Franco, for his mausoleum, and was done with concentration camp labor. Truly a place to see and to contemplate.
The Aranjuez place is magnificent
The sights are fascinating. The guide also knew her stuff. However she was very impersonal and fairly patronising and condescending to the tourists
This trip actually is a two-part excursion provided by two different guides in two different buses. El Escorial itself is impressive but they take straight into the building. The scale of the building is so immense that it can be viewed only from some distance. The tour operator should adjust this visit to give tourists full impression this grandiose monument. Aranjuez is a jewel for those into baroque and palace architecture although the premises of the palace are run down.
Poor quality, disorganized, no time for pics, it was always running from this to this to that, do not book tours with this particular local tour operator, horribleeeee
Nice places to visit, with some drawbacks
1. This is a combination of two different tours, so you will spend two extra hour getting back to Julia's office in Downtown Madrid, waiting for the next departure and leaving again the congestion of Downtown
2. The departure to Escorial was a bit disorganized and we left 20 minutes late (not because any passenger was missing)
3. The driver had no idea where to go, he was constantly getting lost, taking wrong entrances...he almost took a wrong way when we exit Valle de los Caidos
4. The guide was a very unpleasant woman. She was shouting to the driver all the time, in front of all of us. Actually she was so mean that all the passengers were laughing.
5. She said she could not do the guide tour inside the Basilica at Valle de los Caidos for some political prescription, but there were another guide tour inside.
6. They did not give us time to walk around the gardens of El Escorial, which seems to be beautiful
7. The visit inside El Escorial was too fast, we were almost running. She kept repeating that we needed to be back in MAdrid because some passengers needed to go to some lunch before their tour to Toledo.
The Aranjuez tour was much better, the guide was a nice laid back guy, with better attitude and a lot of humor.
The places were definitely worth the visit. Poor communication at Julia's travel. Guide did her best to work with a large group. We were the only couple who spoke English and part of the on- time minority. Most of the communication was in Spanish.
Two problems. First, I booked a full day tour that was supposed to included lunch, only to discover at noon that my wife and I were not to be given lunch and would have to find a place to eat by ourselves. Second, the guide at Aranjuez was bored and boring, and responded with dismissive and annoyed arrogance to a very simple question (I looked up the answer myself after our return home, and found that I was right and the guide was wrong.)

If you are a fan, the idea is to get as close to the basket as possible. And on Thursday, $596 won't get you very close. That's the cheapest price the Warriors were selling — or, more accurately, re-selling — a ticket to the opening game of the NBA Finals. For that money, you get a seat as far away from the basket as it is possible to get while still being, at least technically, inside the arena. It's in the 16th row of the upper deck, back in the corner. And that doesn't include the "service charge" of $98.34. The most expensive seat currently on the market, at courtside, is close enough for Stephen Curry's sweat droplets to be included at no additional charge. The selling price is $32,315. Few people on planet Earth could even afford the $5,331.98 service charge for that one, let alone the actual ticket. (It was not immediately clear why it would cost 54 times more money to "service" one ticket over another.)
Tickets Rumors
The Cavs have been inundated with media requests for next Thursday's opener. One team executive estimated tonight that the requests have surpassed the Dec. 2, 2010 game that was LeBron's original return game to Cleveland as a member of the Heat. Now the Cavs are scrambling to find places to house all the media, since they can't use their normal postseason media seating. That requires eliminating seats, and fans have already purchased tickets for those seats for Thursday night. Regardless, it should be a special night for the city and Cavs fans. I'll see you then.
Although the Lakers are a marquee, a ticket to one of their games on the secondary market is not the most expensive in the NBA. According to national ticket marketplace Vivid Seats, the New York Knicks have the "highest median ticket price on the secondary market at $200." The Lakers are second at $180, ahead of the Oklahoma City Thunder ($170) and Chicago Bulls ($165).

And all the flies were finally able to go home.
I will not zoom in. I can't afford therapy.
Clearly the Superficial's most faithful posters are either catty, jealous girls or gay men. So much hostility toward the fine female form!
I'm a catty and jealous straight dude is that OK?
I remember a time we were just called dicks and cunts. I miss the 80's.
Settle down there, Tony.
Man that's prime stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't always sit on top of cars with my legs open, but when I do, I prefer to have photographers nearby.
"The least interesting woman in the world." Lol, nice one.
Her contract with the Vajazzle people expired a little while ago.
Fortunately she was able to quickly enter the General Lee and speed off…evading Boss Hogg and Sheriff Rosco Coltrane once again!
Fuck you my friend.
So her other car has a Confederate flag on top?
I would fuck the crazy out of her. I have a lot of free time.
Or just fuck her like crazy?
Now this boys and girls is the picture of the week!!!
Looks like someone is finally waking up from another successful date. Once the dizziness goes away, she'll be off to pick out engagement rings.
Wider , Wider , please
Kicked out of yet another guy's car for asking him what kind of wedding cake he prefers on the first date.
This is only one of three vagina's she has picked out
Moderately funny comment but let down by being an apostrophe tard.
What the hell is she doing climbing around on the tops of automobiles? Is it some sort of new celebrity pastime or something?
Sad. After all that vajazzling talk I kind of was expecting her uncooked cookie dough area to look like a disco ball.
Dude, I thought that was Posh Spice at first. Then I thought to myself, "Wait, I don't see any icicles."
♫ ♪ ♪♫ You're body was a wonderland. ♪♪ ♪♫
You are body was a wonderland? Doesn't make sense.
So the Internet doesn't get subtlety. Check. I'll go back to my regular comments.
You guys know you want to bite that!!
what exactly is she doing?
It looks like she might be maneuvering her way over a car that is in a tight parking space.
Something I wish she would do often!!!
How sad…. resorting to a staged upskirt just go stir some interest.
caught her in mid dukes of hazard car slide! Nice!

A Family Road Trip with healthy snacks from Mott's!
Embarking on a family trip always seems like a good idea but getting out of the house is never easy. See how this busy mom manages to keep her little ones happy on a family road trip!
We always take a good variety of snacks and food on family road trips. I will have to try these Mott's ones next time!
She gave some great tips. Portable, healthy snacks are great.
My son is older and he is not a fan of squeezble snacks, but the video had some good ideas.

Beyonce Knowles has been named People magazine's World's Most Beautiful Woman 2012.
Beyonce Knowles has been named People magazine's World's Most Beautiful Woman.
The 30-year-old singer took the top spot on the US publication's annual list ahead of stars including Jennifer Lawrence, Kristen Wiig, Michelle Williams, Jennifer Hudson, Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman and says becoming a mother in January has made her feel more beautiful than ever.
She said: ''I feel more beautiful than I've ever felt because I've given birth. I have never felt so connected, never felt like I had such a purpose on this earth.''
Beyonce - who has been married to rapper Jay-Z for four years - says she is thrilled at being a mother because she now leaves a ''legacy''.
She said: ''The best thing about having a daughter is having a true legacy. The word 'love' means something completely different now. She's just the cutest thing.''
The Duchess of Cambridge, who celebrates her first wedding anniversary this weekend, also made it onto the list.

New Nissan Note to battle Honda JazzComment on this story
Nissan has launched the European version of its new global compact car, which will be sold as the Note on those markets.
Though it's less MPV-like than the previous Note, its design still appears more practical than spunky and it's biggest rival is likely to be the Honda Jazz.
Nissan SA has confirmed that the Note won't be coming to South Africa this year, but our contact says "we are still in discussion with our international product planning teams regarding our plans for 2014 and beyond." They haven't ruled it out, in other words.
There are no fireworks under the bonnet and the emphasis here remains focused on economy. Not only is an idle-stop system standard, but both petrol engines have just three cylinders. The two 1.2-litre units are available in normally aspirated 59kW/110Nm and supercharged 72kW/142Nm forms. A 66kW Renault-sourced 1.5-litre turbodiesel will also be on offer.
The Note will offer a suite of safety gizmos that are usually only found in larger segments, notable examples being Blind Sport Warning, Lane Departure Warning and an advanced Moving Object Detection system. What's more, it's the first car in its segment to offer the multi-camera Around View Monitor, which serves as a 'helicopter view' parking aid.
Nissan promises that the cabin will be particularly spacious, as well as versatile thanks to a sliding rear bench and a dual-height boot floor.

If you're looking to keep ypur film ultra fresh, a fridge is good, but unless you've got it in the glovebox of a car in the sahara, keeping it at normal room temp is what is usually expected, and won't do any harm.
Really old colour film can be expected to colour shift a bit, and prehaps lose a little speed. XP2 super won't colour shift in the conventionally accepted way, but may lose a bit of speed. XP2 super can have a bit of a cast anyway (which is usually lost with a decent minilab) so nothing to worry about.
No store I've ever used has refused to process a film thats a year or two past its "best". The only problem would be if you shot something Really old like Kodacolor II which uses chemistry thats not used any more (C22 in that example)
So basically load up, and shoot. May be worth metering at ASA200 if you are worried about it being very old, but thats about it

I'm not too sure where to put this post but I think this is a good spot.
Ok so I love to read horse books of all sorts, and latly i've been reading books on being a better rider and how to properly traina horse.
In these books some things don't agree and I need some big help since I don't have a riding instructor at the moment.
When the books tell you how to make a "perfect circle" one will say :
"if making a turn to the right place your right leg behind the girth and your left leg on/infront of the girth."
And the other book will say:
"If making a turn to the right place your right leg on/infront on the girth and your left leg behind the girth."
Please give me some judgment on how to make a perfect/decent circle.
Another question I have is when a book talks about jumping releses *spelling?* I don't seem to understand how to do them so could someone help me with this also?
Thank you for reading and commenting in advance
P.s.: sorry about my spelling i've never been great at it.

Prior Review and Limitations
Some drugs require more than a provider's prescription in order to be covered by BCBSNC.
This page provides details regarding the following:
- What You Need To Know: General information regarding your patient's plan and associated formulary (i.e., drug list)
- Utilization Management: You may need to give BCBSNC additional information for your patient to receive specific drugs under their benefits. This allows all of us to work together to provide the safest, most effective and cost-efficient drugs.
- Drug Benefit Limitations: Some drugs are subject to specific limitations.
What You Need to Know:
Member benefit plan and formulary
Your patient's benefit plan and the associated formulary, or drug list, will help you determine which requirements apply to your patient when accessing their pharmacy benefits. The type of plan your patient has is printed on the front of their member ID card. The ID card also identifies the type of formulary, or drug list, with an Rx and a letter on the bottom-right corner of the card. These letters represent a formulary, or drug list, as follows:
Rx A, B, E, F = Enhanced Formulary
(both Enhanced 4 and Enhanced 5 tier plans have the same requirements below)
Rx C = Basic Closed Formulary
Rx D = Basic Open Formulary
You can access your patient's formulary, or drug list, by taking the following steps:
Step 1: Go to the provider page BCBSNC.com and Click on Pharmacy Program.
Step 2: Under Prescription Drug Information, click on the link "search." This will take you to "Find a Drug".
Step 3: Select the member's formulary name [see Member Benefit Plan and Formulary].
Step 4: Enter the drug name and dosage information. Once this information populates, you will see "Related Documents." Click on the pdf with the name of the formulary. This document lists drugs that are on the formulary along with specific requirements like prior review. Definitions of possible terms you might see are located here.
Utilization Management
Some drugs need additional information from you before BCBSNC will cover them. A list of these drugs is provided below. While we try to keep this list up-to-date, this list changes due to new drugs coming to the market. In order to know for sure if these requirements apply to a particular drug, search the formulary for the specific drug name in question. The requirements for approval will be listed under the criteria of each drug listing. For steps on how to access your patient's formulary see Accessing the Formulary above.
If a drug on the Basic Open Formulary indicates a requirement for prior review and step therapy (PA, ST) but is not in the list of drugs below, please have your provider use this criteria. If your patient meets the criteria, submit the completed form to the fax number on the bottom of the form.
Some drugs are not included on the Basic Closed Formulary. If a drug is not listed under "Find a drug" for the Basic Closed Formulary and another drug cannot be used in its place, please use this criteria. If your patient meets the criteria, submit this completed fax form to the fax number on the bottom of the form.
PLEASE NOTE: If your patient changes benefit plans, you may need to verify again that your patient has met our clinical criteria under that new policy.

Explanation of terms in Drug Search
- Criteria - This tells you what conditions must be met for your patient to receive the specific drug under their BCBSNC benefit.
- The different types of review:
- Prior Review (PA)*:You will need to review BCBSNC clinical criteria and verify that your patient meets the requirements so they may receive the drug prescribed.
- Quantity Limitations (QL)*:You will need to review BCBSNC clinical criteria and verify that your patient meets the requirements so they may receive the total amount prescribed. Your patient can still receive the medicine without BCBSNC review and approval, just not over a set amount.
- Restricted Access/Step Therapy (RA/ST)*: You will need to confirm that your patient has tried specific, non-restricted access medicines first and that it was ineffective or harmful to them in the past (and you believe it will be ineffective or harmful again) before your patient can receive the other, non- restricted access medicine.
Nonformulary Exception: This type of review only applies to members on the Basic Closed formulary. You will need to (1) determine that the nonformulary drug is medically necessary and appropriate for your patient's condition; (2) notify BCBSNC that your patient has tried drugs available on the formulary and that they were ineffective or harmful in the past (and you believe they will be ineffective or harmful again); and (3) prescribe the drug in accordance with applicable BCBSNC clinical protocol or have it be approved as an exception through BCBSNC's exception process.
The benefits for any nonformulary exception approvals will be as follows:
- Generic drugs will be subject to tier 2 non-preferred generic benefit
- Brand-name drugs will be subject to tier 4 non-preferred brand-name benefit
- Specialty drugs will be subject to tier 5 specialty drug benefit
- Specialty drugs*: Drugs classified by BCBSNC which generally have a unique indication or use, require special dosing or administration, are typically prescribed by a specialist, or are significantly more expensive than alternative therapies. These drugs are limited to a 30-day supply and must be obtained through an in-network specialty pharmacy in order to receive in-network benefit. In-network pharmacy options will vary based on your plan specific benefits.
*For more information and plan definitions, please see "Covered Services" and "Glossary" in your benefit booklet.
Submitting Requests to BCBSNC
Your patient may start a request for a drug by phone, or by downloading a fax form by searching for it in the Drug Search section. However, in order for the review process to be completed, you must give all necessary information on each fax form, including your signature. We have found the most efficient way to accomplish this is for you to submit the forms directly to us. This can be done in the following ways:
Electronic (preferred): We have teamed with CoverMyMeds to offer electronic review submissions, which allows for fast processing, and for some drugs to be immediately determined. If a drug is approved through the system, the pharmacy will have your authorization in less than 2 hours.
Fax: Faxes can be sent to the fax number on the bottom of the form, or 1-800-795-9403.
Once BCBSNC has all information to make a decision, your provider will hear back from us within three business days. If there are questions about submitting a review, or its status, we can be reached at 1-800-672-7897.

|Abstracts on Global Climate Change
May 2007
Reconstruction of solar total irradiance since 1700 from the surface magnetic flux
Krivova, NA Balmaceda, L Solanki, SK
Context. Total solar irradiance changes by about 0.1% between solar activity maximum and minimum. Accurate measurements of this quantity are only available since 1978 and do not provide information on longer-term secular trends. Aims. In order to reliably evaluate the Sun's role in recent global climate change, longer time series are, however, needed. They can only be assessed with the help of suitable models. Methods. The total solar irradiance is reconstructed from the end of the Maunder minimum to the present based on variations of the surface distribution of the solar magnetic field. The latter is calculated from the historical record of the sunspot number using a simple but consistent physical model. Results. Our model successfully reproduces three independent data sets: total solar irradiance measurements available since 1978, total photospheric magnetic flux since 1974 and the open magnetic flux since 1868 empirically reconstructed using the geomagnetic aa-index. The model predicts an increase in the solar total irradiance since the Maunder minimum of 1.3(-0.4)(+0.2) Wm(-2).

Nokia contest just might make my dreams come true

I dunno about you guys but I feel like my dreams just might come true.
And by the time I am finished, I am sure quite a few of you would join me.
I am a mobile application developer, I always wanted to give back to the society and I am dying to work with an industry leader.
And Nokia has presented an opportunity where I just might get to do it all.
Nokia has launched a contest for mobile application developers in three categories
Eco-challenge � applications which help make the world a more environmentally friendly
Emerging markets - applications which help empower the people in developing countries
Technology showcase - applications which reflect the truly cutting edge mobile technologies
And if you win the contest Nokia will distribute the winning applications through its own channels (besides a hefty cash prize and a trip to Mobile World Congress 2009 in Barcelona.)
So I get to something which I do for living and get a shot at doing something for the society which just might make the difference besides (the grandest of all prizes) I just might have Nokia as my distributor.
Enough of daydreaming, gotta work hard and fast to actually get all that organized because the last date of submissions is just round the corner - December 15, 2008.
Details of the contest are available at
An opportunity to work with Nokia is just too tempting to miss, no?

Okay, my DD is only 6 months old and has only been in daycare for 3 months so I am new to this whole daycare thing. We go to a home daycare and my provider just gave me her new contract for 2011 and I am very frustrated regarding her time off/paid time off. So her contract states she gets 10 days paid vacation, 5 days unpaid vacation plus 4 personal paid days and paid holidays which she has listed equal 10 day. So basically she is asking for 6 weeks of time off, five of it is paid. I think this is quite excessive. I have worked at my job for 5 years and I don't even get that many paid days off so I am trying to figure out if this is normal for home daycares or if she is a little excessive. To top it off her three requested weeks off are all the weeks around Memorial, Fourth of July and Labor day where she has asked for the friday before the holiday through the next weekend equalling 9 days in a row off. I work in healthcare and we have to frequently work holidays so there is no way I can go to my boss and has for all that time off close to holidays. I asked her if there was anyway she could take some of her time off not around the holidays so maybe we could coincide some of our vacations but she said no. I think I may need to look for another provider. What is everyone elese thoughts.
Home daycare paid days off??
Melissa married to my DH, Matt (May 5, 2007)
DD born May 28,2010
Every provider does things differently. When I was doing hdc I had paid holidays (the main ones - not MLK day or anything like that), plus I had 5 paid vacation days. I also granted my dcf's 5 free days to take as they wanted, but they couldn't use their days on days I chose as paid and off. Some providers here (in my area) don't offer any free days to their families, and some only do so after a family's been with them for a year. Some take paid vacation days, paid holidays, and paid sick days. The # each takes varies.
*I* think 5 wks paid is a bit much, but that is just me. She's her own boss, so she can pick as many paid days as she wants, and she can take them whenever she likes. She's being nice by stating now when her days off are so parents have plenty of time to figure out back up care. If you don't like it, you're right, it may be you need to look for other care. But don't be surprised to find other providers in your area taking a good chunk of paid time off, too.
She probably chose so many days off around main holidays because many families go on vacation during those times. I know a LOT of people that are gone to the lakes and such around the 4th of July, Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc.. Those are big holidays. I can see why she said 'no' to changing her schedule. This is her business.
You may need to save some of your PTO, if you have any left over from the birth of your son, to use during her time off and figure out what else to do with your s/o (if you have one - I don't assume), or get family/friends to help out if you want to stick with her. Days a provider closed is/are one of the downfalls to using a hdcp for sure, because it does put parents in a bind at times.
Tanja - Mommy to Peanut (1.05), Bean (3.10) and Chicken Nugget due 09.26.12!
Having kids is a lot like being pecked to death by a chicken.
As a PP said, every provider is different. I had NO paid days off, I was not paid if a kid got sick and the parent cancelled a day, and I took Christmas Eve and Christmas Day and New Year's Day off, and that was it. I worked Memorial Day, Labor Day, Veteran's Day, etc.
That said, I was pretty unhappy and felt underpaid/underappreciated often (I made $2 an hour before taxes and provided all food and drinks, 10-12hrs a day).
If I were you I'd find a provider with a happy medium, who will not be overworked and perpetually stressed. I think 1 week paid vacation is enough, and work some holidays--the small ones like Labor Day.
Even M I R A C L E S take a little time.
Paid holidays=completely standard. Everywhere. 10 days seems pretty standard too. I take all the major holidays off as paid. If they fall on a weekend I take the closest week day off.
Paid vacation days=depends on where you live. Some areas it's standard, others it's not. I know there are several HDCP's on this board that take that much paid vacation. In my area it's not standard, so I don't take paid vacation. Plus I don't feel comfortable asking my parents to pay me while they pay an alternate caregiver.
Personal days=again, depends on where you live. I take 4 paid personal days off that I usually use for vacation/sick days. This year I used 3 of them (2 sick-1 vacation). Next year I plan to schedule all 4.
Also look at the benefits you get and if those benefits equal out to make things the same as if you were going to another daycare. Do you get discounted vacation time? Does she charge less than other HDC's in your area? Is the food provided at no cost? Look at everything together, not just what she's getting, but your benefits as well.
Mama to 2 wonderful kids
Krystal said what I was going to say.
I take the 10 paid holidays, 5 paid vacation days, 5 paid personal days, and 2 paid sick days. That is what I had when I had a desk job and I just carried it over. I think that is pretty standard. That is 22 days. How many days off do you get with your job?
I would have her suggest a backup provider or find one now so you can interview and be comfortable with them. You could also ask DCP if you could pay your vacation days monthly so when it comes time it is prepaid. My parents pay like $20 per month if they term before I take vacay they still paid their portion.
Happily married�since 9/30/2005
Mom to Michael born 1/15/07 and Richard 9/8/09
I have 2 weeks vacation time, NOT paid, all major holidays off paid and if they fall on a weekend I take either Friday before or Monday after. No personal days. I am open for the "silly" reserved holidays. I do get paid for child sick days/personal days etc. I give parents 1 week vacation time at half the weekly rate with each week after at full rate.
Hope that helps..
Krystal pretty much covered what I would say as well.
I get 5 sick days / personal days, the main holidays (not MLK, Veterans Day etc) and I get 2 weeks vacation at 1/2 tuition but so do my families but they still pay 1/2 even if it is a week I decide to close - like next week, only 2 families were going to need care (and one was 2 days a week part time) - the others were all on vacation, so I decided to close then as well and give me some extra family time.
I take holidays off and vacation, but I don't charge them for when I plan on being closed. I figure that they have to pay someone else to watch their child that day, it's not really fair for them to pay me too! My DH doesn't get paid holidays with his job. He gets 5 vacation days, and 2 sick days. I think taking 3 to 5 weeks off PAID is a bit excessive for a home daycare provider. If you don't like paying her for 5 weeks that she won't be watching your LO, then you are free to shop around for a daycare that is a better fit for you. I do hand out a list of days I plan to be closed for the year on the first of January, but I don't charge for those days.
ETA - I do charge when they take sick days though...I just don't charge if I am the one planning on being closed.
Mom to: Raquelle - 3/5/06, Titus - 4/19/07, and Keziah - 10/29/08, Annabelle - EDD July 21, 2011
Did she have the same amount of paid time off in the previous contract, or is this new? I can see being upset if she is all of a sudden springing all of these new paid days off on you.
I take 9 paid holidays a year and 2 weeks (10 days) unpaid vacation. I don't think what your provider is asking for is unheard of. I know many providers in my area take some paid vacation. Have you checked with other providers in your area to see if this is typical?
I take all major Holidays off paid and 10 paid vacation days but I also give the parents 10 vacation they can use anytime other than when I'm closed. I think the amount of time she takes off is quite a bit and would be hard for most parents. I think Holidays off plus 2 weeks vacation and maybe a few sick days is pretty standard but anything more than that is too much. If it doesn't work for you then I would start looking for another provider.
It seems excessive to me. But it is her business. You'll have to decide if she's worth it. Different areas have different standards. Around here providers get paid $125/week, yet I see on here that some providers get double that. It just depends on the area.
I take unpaid major holidays and 10 unpaid personal days - which would include any sick days. I give them 10 personal days if full-time.
I previously had it in the contract to have paid holidays and two weeks vacation, which seemed standard. It came time to enforce it and I just couldn't. I have very low income parents who work hourly with no vacation time. They choose me to care for their kids even though I charge more than others. That means a lot to me. I felt so much better when I changed the policy.
Your child is 6 months old. Do you feel safe and completely confident with your provider? To me, thats a gift that I would pay dearly for personally.

David Clark and his crew on Fifteen have held onto their overnight lead in the 2010 Etchells New South Wales Championship to win after wrapping up the three day series with two races today.
Dave Clarke and his Fifteen crew - Etchells NSW States Championship 2010
After a delayed start, which held the fleet onshore for two hours, the race committee set the race course just inside Sydney Harbour heads in the Sound.
The top two boats from the first two days of racing were separated by one point and the two races held today meant competitors were able to drop their worst result. The breeze settled from a South East direction at 10 knots as the fleet made up of teams from New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland and South Australia lined up.
After accepting the winners tropy this after Clark said 'We've had a great event and being able to get offshore to the track were the 2012 worlds will be raced has been very important to us. I've sailed with my crew for the last two years and we are preparing for 2012 here in Sydney. We've learnt that at this time of year we need to be prepared for all weather conditions. Our plan was to do well in this event so we have managed that, we like to chip away up the middle of the fleet and I think the fact that we were able to be consistent in the top five places in most races helped'.
Tom King's Iron Lotus has sailed a consistent regatta with only one race result out of the top ten and this consistency helped King's team finish second overall.
'We really enjoyed the racing today in the harbour and we had a bit of luck today and managed to finish on a good note winning one of the races today. Fifteen and Dave's team are definitely the boat of the regatta they sailed a great series and deserved to win. It's been great to have so many boats racing and interstate teams travelling to compete in a strong class', commented King.
Dual Laser World Champion and Beijing Olympian Tom Slingsby, who is back steering an Etchells after a 12 month hiatus, completed the podium of overall places finishing in third with the team on Steampacket 7 and winning the last race of the series earlier this afternoon.
Slingsby, who sails with another one Design class the Farr 40's, remarked, 'It's been great to sail with Bruce and Guddo for this event. It's been tricky and challenging conditions and I finally figured out how to steer a Etchells again by the end of the regatta. Steering the boat for this event has been very beneficial and I am returning to my usual boat with John Bertrand for the Etchells Worlds in Ireland later this year'.
Final Results – Top 10 places:
1 Fifteen David Clark CYCA 18
2 Iron Lotus Tom King RSYS 39
3 Steampacket 7 Tom Slingsby RPAYC 43
4 North Star Julian Plante RPAYC 44
5 Absolute Pearler Peter McNeill LMYC 48

SAN ANTONIO (January 29, 2012)—Reese Pearis, 21, who was wanted in a home invasion and robbery involved an exchange of gunfire, was jailed Sunday in El Paso after he was arrested by a fugitive task force, the U.S. Marshals Service said in a press release.
He's awaiting transfer to San Antonio, where he's accused of taking part in the home invasion with two unidentified people at an apartment complex and exchanging gunfire with the apartment's occupants.
The Lone Star Fugitive Task Force, which involves several law-enforcement agencies, developed information that Pearis had fled to El Paso and located him there.

Everyone loved this casserole! I think when I make it again I will try making a sauce with red raspberries though...for some reason I associate that more with Monte Cristos than strawberries. I left out the parsley. Thanks for the recipe!
Great stuff! My kids all loved it (11, 10, 6 & 3 yrs.), as did my husband. Quick & easy, results were delicious! Thanks for posting!
Oh my gosh, what a great casserole. My husband and I are both Disney fanatics and love the Monte Cristo at the Blue Bayou. This is the closest I have ever found to the real thing! Thanks for sharing this recipe. This will definitely be used in our house!

"Our visit was prompted by the sudden and stunning loss of our daughter, E. We had no idea what to do or what to expect, but Friedrich-Jones Funeral Home was beyond helpful and understanding. You were so patient with us and let our son run all around the facility. We are grateful for how your group handled everything — so many things we had never thought about. Truly, we were blindsided and we thank you for helping us through these tough days."

Comments Thread For: George Groves: Next Time I Will Ruin James DeGale!
British/Commonwealth super middleweight champion George Groves expects a future rematch with rival James DeGale. Last Saturday at the O2 Arena in London, Groves won a twelve round majority decision over DeGale with scores of 115-115, 115-114 and 115-114. DeGale's promoter Frank Warren would like Groves to grant his boxer an immediate rematch. Groves is going in another direction but he does predict a rematch in the future, where he plans to put a serious hurt on DeGale.

pretty gracious apart from the ruined comment.
But I can imagine a circumstance where Degale becomes a world champ, Groves falls by the wayside a bit.
DeGale rematches Groves....................and loses, again.
I'm not sure DeGale should bother with Georgey. He clearly has something over him, that he really shouldn't.

groves was the one who looked like he could have been ruined by some of Degale's shots. he boxed beautifully, and nothing wrong with him getting the nod, but to me he didn't really "win" that fight.
i wasn't that impressed with the fight all in all, degale was good enough to keep groves from picking him completely apart, and groves was good enough to keep degale from being more aggressive. it was a stalemate. i think the fight will play out the same about 75 times out of 100.

Good win for Groves man .I bet he doesn't want any more of Kenny Anderon either lol man .He was hurt in that fight but hat off to him came back good .I was watching his footwork today in that fight pretty good but on the backfoot the whole fight and Anderson hardly took a step back .One of them fighters who just keep going forward .Ricky Burns's trainer said Anderson's one of the hardest puncher if not hardest at 12 stone so no shame on Groves either man .Hope Anderson gets active man and some championship fights

Groves is only 23. He is improving a lot and showed how adaptable he can be e.g. his defence in the DeGale fight, which was his supposed weakness.
DeGale is a phenominal athlete, but reminded me a bit like Audley in the pure sense that he didn't really let his shots go. He lacked the killer instinct and wasn't willing to take risks, even after Warren implored him.
Still, both will rise to the top over the next couple of years

Groves will be a 168lb Champ in the future.DeGale needs to reassess his style.
Groves should try and get a fight with Brian MaGee,Enrique Ornelas,Allan Green,Aurthur Abraham,Sakio Bika.All very good pros that Groves can learn how to master his craft against.

Although I love a steak or a burger hot off the grill, it's vegetables that I really prefer cooking over flames. They cook quickly and are so delicious with just a hint of smoke from the fire. Plus you don't have to panic about whether they're over- or underdone in the middle like you do with meat. In most cases, you can tell if they're ready just by looking at them.
Don't Miss: 9 Great Vegetables to Cook on Your Grill
Here are my tips for perfect grilled vegetables:

I am guilty of letting some things "go" in my fridge. I don't finish all my salad greens, so they wilt and I throw them out or I find blue fuzzy mold in the sour cream, so I toss it. A little waste here and there feels harmless, but I certainly wouldn't ever throw dollar bills in the trash can and, in a roundabout way, that's what I'm doing when I throw out rotten food.

I have a small kitchen that doesn't have a lot of storage space. Because of that, my refrigerator looks more like a pantry—a very full, disorganized pantry. After one of the shelves on the door broke off for about the 100th time under the strain of every condiment known to man, I decided to finally do something about it.
Don't Miss: How to Stock Your Pantry
Some items needed to leave the fridge. But what? After some research, I learned a few things that made me feel a little better about my fridge situation—amongst the chaos, there were indeed some foods that truly belonged. Here are 5 surprising foods you might want to refrigerate:
1. Natural Peanut Butter

Macaroni salad is one of those dishes that you just have to have at a Memorial Day gathering. The ingredients are cheap, it's easy to make (and make a lot of) and has a wonderfully creamy texture and mild flavor that everyone loves.
But if you think your typical macaroni salad is harmless, think again. Right when you're about to squeeze back into that bikini, good old macaroni salad will make that task a little more difficult. A typical 1-cup serving packs 370 calories and 22 grams of fat. Yikes.

Ever heard of yonanas? It's a one-ingredient frozen dessert made with ripe bananas that has the texture of soft serve ice cream without any added fat or sugar. Sounds pretty good to me, except that I'd have to purchase a $50 machine to make it and I've made a commitment not to buy single use appliances. But I am curious to try this wonder dessert.
With a little searching it appears as though you don't actually need the machine to replicate this fruity soft-serve-like goodness. (You actually don't need an ice cream maker to make creamy frozen yogurt either—your food processor does an excellent job of finely blending berries with yogurt. What about your blender? Although blenders can get a finer texture, blending thick frozen berries with yogurt is difficult. Air pockets form over the blade and you're left...read full post »

On the Rise: Seasoned SF musicians lay claim to chilly synth with Forever
When is the cover better than the original? When the original is by newbie/vitriolic web backlash victim Lana Del Rey, and the cover is a sensual send-up by seasoned San Francisco duo Silver Swans (silverswans.bandcamp.com [2]). The local act split open the pop song — "Video Games" — slowed it down, and filled it with chilly synth floating below breathy vocals.
But we're not here to debate Del Rey's musical ability; we're here to keep a glossy superhero eye on Silver Swans. Formed by Las Vegas-born vocalist Ann Yu and Jamaica-bred effects wizard-DJ Jon Waters in 2007, the band has delivered a lovely catalogue — most recently 2010's Secrets EP and the upcoming LP Forever (Feb.7) — of heart-wrenching synth pop and shoulder-dancing, Manchester-evoking icy club rock. It's high time they get their international due.
Description of sound: Someone else said it best: "tropical synths and stuttering 808s" wrapped in ambivalent romance and bittersweet longing.
Like most about the Bay Area music scene: The Bay Area music scene is both sophisticated yet charming. So many amazing bands come out of SF, yet you can still create your own place here and find people who appreciate what you do. In that sense, it's still fresh here. The scene isn't jaded and over-saturated, there's charm and new inspiration everywhere.
What piece of music means the most to you and why: This is a hard one, so many songs have come into my life and forever changed me, the first mixtape I got had a song on it called "So Said Kay" by The Field Mice and I think I could have listened to that song on repeat for days reading into every lyric and just taking in the voice. It made me sad too, and just made me feel exactly what I wanted to feel at the time. It was one of the first songs to inspire me to write and also tap into that unknown territory where you don't care about how unique or difficult a part is write, you just let yourself get carried away in the moment of the song itself and let it almost write itself.
Favorite local eatery and dish: El Metate Mexican Veggie burrito, the vegetables are roasted and always fresh. Everything there is delicious and on the cheap, right down to their alfajore cookies, I fully endorse the entire menu.
Who would you most like to tour with: Karin Dreijer Andersson -- Jon and I are both admirers of everything she does. She is a true artist, and I get lost in her songs always.

Dr. Robert Love treats complex diseases and disorders of heart and lungs, including cancer
MAYWOOD, Ill. - Prominent cardiothoracic surgeon Dr. Robert B. Love has begun caring for patients at Loyola Center for Health at Homer Glen, 15750 Marian Drive, Homer Glen.
Love, professor and vice chairman of thoracic and cardiovascular surgery and surgical director, lung transplant, Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine, Maywood, is available for consultations on a variety of diseases and conditions that affect the chest.
âPeople in the Homer Glen area will now have access to higher-level care because Dr. Love specializes in treating complex disorders of the heart and lungs, including cancer,â said Paul K. Whelton, MB, MSc, president & CEO, Loyola University Health System. âHeâs going to be a real asset to the community.â
Love is a recognized leader in the field of lung and heart transplantation and is a tireless advocate for organ donation. Love also performs thoracic surgery for lung and esophageal cancers; minimally invasive thoracic procedures; and heart surgery, including coronary-artery bypass surgery, heart valve repair and replacement, aortic aneurysm repair, heart transplant devices and treatments for patients with congestive heart failure.
Love is board certified in general surgery, critical care surgery and thoracic surgery by the American Board of Surgery.
An accomplished researcher, Love is currently working to better understand the building blocks of chronic rejection, the most common reason for transplant failure. He is hopeful that the findings will result in new treatment options that combat this problem and improve survival for all transplanted organs beyond 10 years. Love has served as principal investigator for numerous basic and clinical research studies over the course of his career and is a sought-after presenter at scientific meetings in the United States and abroad.
He has accepted an appointment from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) to serve as surgical lead faculty on HHSâs Organ Transplant Collaborative group.
Love was brought up in the Chicago area, attending Glenbard South High School in Glen Ellyn, Ill. He graduated from Rush Medical College, Chicago, in 1982. He completed an internship and general surgery residency at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, and was the director of the lung and heart transplant program there from 1992 until joining Loyola.
Love also cares for patients in clinic at the Cardinal Bernardin Cancer Center and at the Center for Heart & Vascular Medicine, both located at 2160 S. First Ave., Maywood.

(This is functional).
Eric McLean was diagnosed with AML at age 18 and fought over a half a dozen relapses over the last decade. He is now 28 and has a final terminal diagnosis. He's posted a video blog since 2009 and has now posted his final video.
Please get the word out. Prayers and support for his family as well as donations to cancer research using L.I.F.E. and also registering to become bone marrow donors.
Thanks. PAN me if you have questions. His final video is heart wrenching. Be warned...
