How does your feeding schedule look?
How to transition from formula to cow's milk
How does your feeding schedule look?
Comments (6)
I'm just about to start and I have no idea how to do it. I'm particularly uncertain because we do baby-led weaning and so I never know exactly how much my LO is eating. I guess it will be a bit of an adventure.
Happy mom to Neville Fenton, June 2012 & Leif Fischer, April 2014.
I am excited to start this as well. Lo turns 1 on the 19th and his 1 year apt is the 25th. I want to consult with the pedi before i start. Im really looking forward to not purchasing formula but a little apprehensive because some days he seems to eat like a bird and i feel like he still needs the nutrients from formula. I have heard horror stories about toddlers that never except the milk and end up on toddler formula. What a financial nightmare
I started cow's milk at 11 months. LO has a 3pm snack that is finger foods. After he'd eat about 3/4 of his food I would give him a sippy cup (he likes the straw ones best) to practice with. I only give him about 4-6 ounces per sitting. Once he was doing great at snack time I would offer it after he was 3/4 of the way through breakfast. Then lunch, then dinner. He now sucks down milk like it is the best thing ever. We still have a night time bottle. I'm too nervous to give it up :)
I asked my pedi and he recommended Hemp milk as it has more fats and protiens than cows milk and takes no adjustment like Cow's milk could. We also drink coconut milk. I would definately consult your pedi before you switch, you want to make sure that they will still be getting all the nutrients they would have been getting from formula/breastmilk.
just transitioned lo. he was a milk allergy baby early on though so our transition was slow.i would ask your pedi. i know a lot just say to switch em over. inittially milk does cause a lil constipation though...however this is how we transitioned lo...he actually loves his milk more. 8- )
but we did 1tsp in one bottle for the first day and 2tsp in one bottle for day 2...the 4tsp, then 8tsp...then 1oz, 2oz, 4oz, one entire bottle...then the next day you alternate bottles until lo is on milk fully...
Cora gets formula at school and breastmilk at home and weekends, but she takes less now that she likes table foods.
Dr said treat cow milk like other new food, try it today on it's own to see how she likes it and check for reactions w/in 4days. She did fine on milk based form and is growing well, so he was not concerned
He said if she doesn't like taste at first I can mix half form or bm and slowly lower the ratio
Hope that helps!

At almost 5-feet, 11-inches tall, Michelle Obama gives tall women a new sense of victory. Instead of cowering in the corner, trying not to stand out like a sore thumb, she has become the epitome of grace and style, standing proudly in front of crowds and next to her 6-foot, 1-inch-tall husband.
POWER PLAY: Just like the kitten heel, Mrs. Obama has brought an appreciation back to the ballet flat that allows tall women to be comfortable and stylish all remarkably at the same time.

7 Math Mistakes to be Aware Of
April is Math Awareness Month, and some things to be aware of this month — as well as the whole year through — are common math errors. Here are seven that show up frequently.
Incorrect Addition of Fractions. It's common for kids to add fractions as follows:
And while that algorithm works for batting averages in baseball, it doesn't work in most other places. More importantly, this mistake is often unaccompanied by reasoning. For example, a student who claims that 2/3 + 4/5 = 7/9 doesn't realize that with each addend greater than 1/2, then the sum should be greater than 1. That lack of thought bothers me.
Cancellation of Digits, Not Factors. While it's true that 16/64 = 1/4 and 19/95 = 1/5, students who think the algorithm involves cancelling digits may also argue that 13/39 = 1/9, and that just ain't right.
Incorrect Distribution. This one takes a lot of forms. In middle school, kids will say that 4(2 + 3) = 8 + 3. As they get older, they apply the distributive property to exponents and claim that (3 + 4)2 = 32 + 42 or, more generally, that (a + b)2 = a2 + b2.
The Retail Law of Close Numbers. A large portion of the population will buy a shirt for $19.99 that they'd pass up if it had a price tag of $20.00. Even though the amounts only differ by one cent, a lesser digit in the tens place makes the price feel much lower. Crazy, but true.
Ignoring the Big Picture. If you are a driver who is interested primarily in speed (and less concerned with price, looks, fuel efficiency, or other factors), would you rather have a vehicle with 305 horsepower or one with 470 horsepower? If you chose the latter option, congratulations! While the owner of a sweet 305-hp Ford Mustang will be sitting at home and sipping a mint julep on his front porch, you'll still be doing 30 mph on the highway in your Sherman tank.
Correlation Implies Causation. As ice cream sales increase, the number of drowning deaths increases, too. But that doesn't mean that having an ice cream cone willl make you less likely to swim safely, even if you failed to heed your mother's advice to wait 30 minutes after eating. It's just that ice cream sales and swimming-related deaths increase in summer, both of which are to be expected.
Just because two things happen to coincide doesn't mean that one is the direct (or even indirect) result of the other.
Percents Don't Work That Way. A 20% decrease followed by a 20% increase does not return you to the initial value. If you invest $100 in a company, and it loses 20% the first year, your investment will then be worth $80. If it gains 20% the next year, you'll now have $96. Uh-oh.
What common math error do you see frequently, and which one bothers you the most?
Two Simple Math Games
In his article "What Is the Name of This Game?" author John Mahoney discussed the mathematics of the following game:
Cards numbered 1-9 are placed face up on a table. Two players alternate picking up one card at a time. The winner is the first player who has exactly three cards with a sum of 15.
You can play this game with nine cards removed from a deck of cards, or you can play online by going to http://illuminations.nctm.org/deepseaduel. The online version is a one-player game, but it has modifications that use different numbers of cards, different values on the cards, and different required sums.
Can you find the winning strategy for this game? (Hint: The strategy is described in the linked article above.)
Here's a modification of the game that seems interesting, too.
Use cards with the following numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36. The winner is the first player who has exactly three cards with a product of 216.
The optimal strategy for this game is different than the strategy from the original game. Can you find it?
Note: For the original game, there are eight sets of three cards with a sum of 15:
{1, 5, 9}, {1, 6, 8}, {2, 4, 9}, {2, 5, 8},
{2, 6, 7}, {3, 4, 8}, {3, 5, 7}, {4, 5, 6}
For the modification, there are 36 sets of three cards with a product of 216.
Perhaps that fact will help you identify the optimal strategy.
What is Your Favorite Number?
The WordPress Post-A-Week Challenge sends me a daily topic idea to consider for blog posts. Often, the prompts are not appropriate for a math jokes blog. For instance, some recent prompts have been:
- Grab the nearest book (or website) to you right now. Jump to paragraph 3, second sentence. Write it in a post.
- How do you find your muse?
- If you could bring one fictional character to life for a day, who would you choose?
But today's prompt landed in my wheelhouse:
What is your favorite number, and why?
When Art Benjamin appeared on the Colbert Report, he said that 2,520 was his favorite number when he was a kid. When Stephen Colbert asked him why, he replied, "It was the smallest number that was divisible by all the numbers from 1 through 10."
Tonight, I asked my twin sons Alex and Eli what their favorite numbers are.
Eli: 5, 15, 55, because my favorite number is really 5, but 15 and 55 are triangular numbers that have 5's in them.
Alex: 21, because my favorite numbers used to be 1 and 2, and because it's the number of cards you deal when we play Uno (3 players, 7 cards each).
My favorite number is 153, for lots of reasons:
- It is the smallest non-trivial Armstrong (or narcissistic) number — that is, it is an n‑digit number that is equal to the sum of the nth powers of its digits: 13 + 53 + 33 = 153.
- Its prime factors are 3 and 17, and my birthday is 3/17.
- It is a triangular number. (Consequently, it's the sum of 1 + 2 + 3 + … + 17.) As 351 is also a triangular number, 153 is also a reversible triangular number.
- It is the sum of the first five factorials: 1! + 2! + 3! + 4! + 5! = 153.
- The sum of its digits is 9, and the sum of its proper divisors is 92.
- It is one of only six known truncated triangular numbers, which means that 1, 15 and 153 are all triangular numbers.
Mathematician John Baez claims that his favorite numbers are 5, 8, and 24.
Got a favorite number? Share it, as well as the reason it's your favorite, in the comments.
Fun Factor
Two numbers were having a conversation about their social lives.
28: Did you hear that 284 broke up with 220?
6: I'm not surprised. He's far from perfect. But at least their break-up was amicable.
28: Yeah, well, I heard she started seeing 12.
6: Really? He doesn't have abundant charm. Don't you think 10 would be a better match for her?
28: I don't know. He seems so solitary!
Speaking of factors, I learned a neat trick this weekend for finding the sum of the factors of a number. Before I share that, consider the method for determining how many factors a number has. Take the number 12, for instance. The prime factorization of 12 is:
12 = 22 × 3
The following array can be used to generate all of the factors of 12:
It's obvious from the array that there are six factors. But the trick is to notice that each factor in the array is made from a power of 2 times a power of 3 — that is, each factor is equal to 2m × 3n, where 0 ≤ m ≤ 2 and 0 ≤ n ≤ 1. Since there are three possible values of m and two possible values for n, then there are 3 × 2 = 6 factors of 12.
In general, if the prime factorization of the number takes the form ap × bq × cr, then the number of factors is (p + 1)(q + 1)(r + 1) for exponents p, q, and r. (The process could obviously be extended if there are more than three prime factors.)
But look at the array again. The sum of all factors of 12 is equal to sum of all products that occur within the array. However, there is an easy way to find that sum, by taking advantage of the distributive property. The sum of the powers of 2 along the top is 20 + 21 + 22 = 7, and the sum of the powers of 3 along the left side is 30 + 31 = 4. Consequently, the sum of all factors of 12 is equal to:
(20 + 21 + 22)(30 + 31) = 7 × 4 = 28
In general, if the prime factorization of a number is ap × bq × cr, then the sum of the factors is:
(a0 + a1 + … + ap)(b0 + b1 + … + bq)(c0 + c1 + … + cr)
And again, this could be extended if the number had more than three prime factors.
Cool, huh?
Confounding Factors
My colleague Julia is preparing a talk about factoring for an elementary audience, and she created the following problem to use as a warm-up:
Take a two‑digit number ab, and find the least common multiple of a, b, and ab. For example, if you take the number 35, then LCM(3, 5, 35) = 105. For which two‑digit number ab is LCM(a, b, ab) the greatest? (The notation ab is used to indicate the two‑digit number with tens digit a and units digit b, which is equal to 10a + b. This notation is used to distinguish the two‑digit number ab from the product ab.)
Here are some math jokes about factors:
What do you call an amount that exactly divides a recipe for a sweet confection?
A fudge factor.
What do algebra equations and British television have in common?
An X Factor.
Sadly, both of those are my original jokes. Sorry. To cleanse your palate, check out one of Randall Munroe's original jokes about factoring:

Do You Like the Name Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner Picked for Son Samuel?
Though Violet, 6, and Seraphina, 3, were pushing for a Disney-themed moniker for their baby brother ("They suggested Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse Affleck," Garner joked), when it came to naming the newest addition to their family, Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck opted for something a little more traditional.
PHOTOS: Look back at Jen's pregnancy
"We are happy to announce on February 27, Jennifer gave birth to a healthy baby boy, Samuel Garner Affleck," proud papa Affleck, 39, shared on Facebook.
PHOTOS: Garner's life as a Super Mom!
Samuel -- a Biblical name with Hebrew origins -- translates to either "name of God" or "God has heard." The name has also consistently ranked in the top 50 most popular boys' names in the U.S., and was the 24th most popular choice for boys born in 2010.

And that is reason enough. You and I are the improbable winners of the most miraculous intergenerational lottery: After uncounted generations of human beings, we have the unique privilege of living in a time when man has the capacity to travel to other worlds. Anyone who can remain unhumbled by the majesty of the enterprise, dead to the transcendent promise of his own time, should have his citizenship in the twenty-first century revoked.

Re: Three potential itineraries through Sweden and/or Denmark (all ending in Goteborg)
I think you have three fantastic options no matter which route you take. Its more like if you wanna se Stockholm or not, Oslo or not (the same question and answer).
You have a lot of beautiful thing to explore in Halland (between Skåne and Gothenburg). Varberg with it's castle, Falkenberg with the beach, etc.
To end up a coulple of days in Gothenburg is though a brilliant suggestion :-)

Two Cases Expected to Turn on First Amendment Rights ABORTION: SUPREME COURT ARGUMENTS
Robert P. Hey, writer of The Christian Science Monitor, The Christian Science Monitor
AFTER a year of hefty political presence, of marches and countermarches, the emotional issue of abortion climbs the long marble steps of the United States Supreme Court building tomorrow.
Inside the august building lawyers in two similar cases will argue their positions before the nine justices. It will be the only public discussion of the cases, thus far the only two concerning abortion that the court is considering this term.
Like other Americans on both sides of the abortion question, legal scholars wonder whether the result of these two cases will be to leave the 17-year-old national right to abortion largely unaffected, to abridge it with another in a recent series of restrictions, or to overturn it entirely.
The Supreme Court likely will not give its answer for months. Each alternative is possible, legal experts say.
The two cases are Rust v. Sullivan and New York v. Sullivan. Both challenge as unconstitutional regulations issued two years ago by the US Department of Health and Human Services. They forbid any medical clinic that receives government funds from any mention of the option of abortion to a pregnant woman.
Both cases are complex; they involve not only abortion, which advocates say is rooted in constitutional guarantees of privacy, but also issues of the First Amendment's guarantee of free speech and the intent of Congress.
"What makes these cases different" from other abortion-related cases that the court might have decided to consider "is the First Amendment angle," says Prof. Lea Brilmayer of the Yale University Law School.
Plaintiffs argue that physicians who work for government-funded clinics have a First Amendment right to be able to give pregnant patients a complete picture of options available to them, including abortion. For government to prevent them violates their First Amendment right to free speech, they say. Free-Speech Question
"The real question is whether the regulations violate the free speech of the care provider," says Prof. Suzanna Sherry of the University of Minnesota Law School.
There also exist "the First Amendment rights ... of the patient to get some information" on all possible options, says Prof. Erwin Chemerinsky of the University of Southern California Law Center.
Prof. Laurence Tribe of Harvard Law School will argue for the plaintiff in the Rust v. Sullivan case before the court. He says, "The case really is more about free speech than abortion."
It is also about the intent of Congress, plaintiffs insist. In a 1970 law that provided money for public health services Congress said none of the funds "shall be used in programs where abortion is a method of family planning." Eighteen years later the Reagan administration issued the regulations now being challenged in the Supreme Court. …

In a competitive field of great programs, there's not always a guarantee that our favorite shows will see the light of another season.
However, fans of "Shameless" and "House of Lies" can breathe easy- Showtime has extended both projects for at least 12 more episodes.
Keeping an eye on the hottest new trends, a smattering of famous females descended on the Carolina Herrera runway presentation at Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week Fall 2014 today (February 10).
Getting a great view at some of the hottest upcoming styles, a few famous faces dotted the front row of the Monique Lhuillier show during New York Fashion Week 2014 on Saturday (February 8).
Celebrating the ladies who make it happen on the small screen, ELLE hosted their annual Women in Television Celebration on Wednesday evening (January 22) in West Hollywood.
With the fourth season of her hit series "Shameless" underway, Emmy Rossum garnered herself a little added exposure by covering the February 2014 issue of Complex magazine.
Treating herself to a swanky evening out, Emmy Rossum attended Antonio Berardi's private dinner party at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills on Tuesday night (January 7).
The "Shameless" stunner looked gorgeous in a sparkly green dress teamed with a black clutch and strappy heels as she waited patiently for her valet to retrieve her car.
Inspired by Gisele Bundchen's multitasking mama photo, Emmy Rossum staged her own breastfeeding photo on Wednesday (December 11).
On Tuesday, the blonde model posted a photo of herself being made up as she lounges in a robe breastfeeding her daughter Vivian. The caption reads, "What would I do without this beauty squad after the 15 hours flying and only 3 hours of sleep #multitasking #gettingready."
With the fourth season of her hit Showtime series "Shameless" slated to premiere on January 12th, Emmy Rossum scored a feature in the January 2014 issue of Esquire magazine.
While baring it all for the James White-shot spread, the "Beautiful Creatures" dame shared detailed stories about her pets and discussed being a star in Hollywood.

I'm glad it makes you laugh. It's not a declaration, though, it's an observation: a "power of love" ending is a situation where a problem is instantly solved through the magical properties of love. It's a deus ex machina device where feelings are used as a pseudo-justification for a quick and underserved resolution.
That's not what happened here at all: two creatures were in love, and they were reunited. Love was their

So no, I don't agree to disagree. If you think I'm wrong and you want to talk about it though, I'm here.

KU Symphony Orchestra
- Categories: Community, KU calendar, Classical, Music | Holiday
- Event posted: Aug. 10, 2009
- Last updated: Sept. 16, 2014
Event details
- Friday, Oct. 30, 2009, 7:30 p.m.
- Lied Center, 1600 Stewart Drive, KU campus, Lawrence
- Cost: $5 - $7
- Age limit: All ages
The KU Symphony Orchestra will celebrate All Hallow's Eve with a performance on Friday, October 30, 2009, at 7:30 p.m. at the Lied Center of Kansas.
The concert will feature works by Gustav Holst, Engelbert Humperdinck, Hector Berlioz, Paul Dukas, Camille Saint-Saëns, Richard Wagner and Modest Mussorgsky, with the orchestra decked out in Halloween attire. David Neely, conductor of the KUSO and Director of Orchestral Activities at KU, states:
"This concert promises to be a fun, family-friendly event. We strongly encourage everyone, especially kids, to come wearing Halloween costumes!"
Holst: "Mars, Bringer of War" from The Planets
Although Holst's orchestral suite The Planets does not immediately put one in mind of All Hallow's Eve, its first movement, with pounding ostinato in 5/4, wild brass fanfares, and masses of brutal orchestral sound, is terrifying (it is interesting to consider that it was composed during the final stages of the first World War). Holst, who had been introduced by a friend to the then newly fashionable study of astrology, intended the suite to depict the individual planets' influence on the human psyche.
Humperdinck: Witch's Ride ("Hexenritt") from Hänsel und Gretel
In 1890, Humperdinck sat down to compose some children's songs for a home performance of a play his sister had written based on the fairy tale, Hänsel and Gretel. By the time he was finished, however, his Wagnerian enthusiasm had given birth to a wonderful full-length opera with large orchestra and requiring mature singers. Richard Strauss conducted the premiere in Weimar in 1893. The excerpt you will hear this evening is an adapted concert version of the prelude to the second act, and depicts the flesh-eating ogress "Rosine Leckermaul" (Raisin Yummyjaws, in this author's translation). Trivia: In Germany, Hänsel und Gretel it is almost always performed at Christmas time and is usually the first opera German children see.
Berlioz: March to the Scaffold ("Marche au supplice") from Symphonie Fantastique
Berlioz' Fantastic Symphony, a revolutionary five-movement programmatic work dating from 1830, tells the story of an artist who has poisoned himself with opium out of desperate, unrequited love. In this movement (the fourth), he sees himself being lead to the guillotine for killing the object of his desire for having spurned him. At the moment before his execution, his thoughts turn to her (depicted by a wistful clarinet melody that is the symphony's "idée fixe") before the plunging blade interrupts his reverie. Tip: During the concert, listen for the quiet sound of his severed head hitting the ground.
Dukas: The Sorcerer's Apprentice ("L'apprenti Sorcier")
Written in 1897 and immortalized in the 1940 Disney film "Fantasia," the story of Dukas' orchestral tone poem, based on a ballad by Goethe, is well known. The apprentice, expected to fetch water while the sorcerer is away, casts a spell on a broom to do the work for him. Things go well until he realizes he is unable to stop the broom when the work is done. Finding an ax, the desperate apprentice cleaves the broom into shards. The solution is merely temporary, however; for, from each of the shards grows a new, water-carrying broom. A massive flood ensues and only the returning sorcerer can break the spell.
Mussorgsky/Rimsky-Korsakov: Night on Bald (Bare) Mountain
A staple of the concert repertoire, especially since being featured in Disney's Fantasia, the path from Mussorgsky's original concept of an opera to be titled "St. John's Night," to the tone poem now called "Night on Bald Mountain" is a dark and convoluted one. Suffice it to say that Mussorgky's musical ideas went through many incarnations before Nicolai Rimsky-Korsakov was able to piece together, from what he claimed was by then a work for solo piano and orchestra, the strictly orchestral piece we now know.
Based on a Slavic legend, the tone poem tells tale of Chernabog, the black god, and a Walpurgis-Night or Witches' Sabbath atop a mountain barren of trees. Chernabog conjures up monsters and demons for the purpose of terrifying the poor mortals of a nearby town, displaying prodigious pyrotechnic skill in the process. But he is too late--a morning church bell and the first light of day put an end to the festivities.
Saint-Saëns: Danse Macabre
The title of this piece is borrowed from the pan-cultural "mortal dance" image of a skeletal death-figure leading individuals from all walks of life to the same inevitable end. Saint-Saëns' work is a seductive minor-key waltz that features a detuned (scordatura) solo violin with an open-string "devil's interval" tritone and some bone rattling orchestral effects.
Wagner: Ride of the Valkyries (Walkürenritt) from Die Walküre
This well-known excerpt is from the second evening of Richard Wagner's immense fourteen-hour, four-opera cycle "The Ring of the Nibelungs." Without attempting to describe the circuitous plot of "The Ring," let it be noted that the Valkyries are the illegitimate daughters of the chief Norse god Wotan and the earth-goddess Erda. We first encounter these nine helmet-wearing, spear wielding warrior women on the field of battle, indulging in their favorite pastime: collecting the souls of fallen mortal heroes for the purpose of bringing them to Valhalla, the heavenly abode of the gods. This they do with joyful abandon, hailing each other with exuberant cries of "Hoyo-to-ho." Almost as frightening as this image is the frequency with which this music has been appropriated in modern advertising, film, and, um, Halloween concerts. (program notes by Professor Neely)
This concert is $7/general admission and $5/students and seniors. Tickets can be purchased at the Lied Center Box Office, 785-864-2787.

Oh, there were seven or eight good episodes - stories only "matter" if they're
, not because they fit into and advance some kind of "arc." It doesn't help that the metastory in B5 was mediocre, derivative and ended in a sham climax ("Get out of our galaxy!").
My biggest disappointment with
Babylon 5
--and I love the show--is that it didn't deliver on JMS's early promise that this would be the show where all those science-fiction writers could come to write those stories they couldn't do on Trek.
As the seasons progressed, B5 got too bogged down in the metastory. (Yes, yes, I know all the production reasons.)
I had hoped that there would be a stable of revolving writers each season who would take advantage of the locale and universe to tell challenging SF stories. Alas, as JMS took the reins completely, there wasn't much room for that.
I still think that if there is a B5 revival that it should drop the arc and become a more anthology-like series, telling stories of the different kinds of people going through the station. Thus allowing all sorts of writers to write the scripts.
JMS compared B5 to the "naked city" -- that there are thousands of stories to be told there. However, we only got the main story as told through the handful of characters we watched week in and week out.
Lindley wrote:
Everyone always focuses on that line, which entirely misses the point of the ending. I wish JMS hadn't put it in there.
I felt that was JMS writing too much for Boxleitner's own speech patterns.

As of September 2006, the end of the federal fiscal year, the site had cost $172 million to clean up, $33 million of which had gone toward shipping waste out west.
In April 2006, the engineers had cleaned 80 percent of the site when they hit a large pocket of Uranium 238 contaminated soil. Engineers estimated that roughly 600 cubic yards of soil would have to be removed. By the time they had cleaned the parcel, they had dug up 3,000 cubic yards and found themselves with no additional funding to ship it off site.
It was the second such hurdle for the dig. In 2004, engineers ran into another deposit of contaminated soil nearly double what they anticipated. It set work crews back nearly a year.
Working from west to east, workers remove contaminated soil from half-acre sites at a time. In total, about 200,000 cubic yards of soil has been removed.
It has been a long time coming for Colonie, said Kevin Bronner, a town board member who will not seek re-election this year for a third term on the board.
Bronner said he is pleased to see the site clean. For him and his family, the cleanup of the National Lead site, a half-mile from where he grew up in Albany, has been something of a personal mission.
Bronner grew up on Rosemont Street in Albany. His father, David E. Bronner, an Albany area attorney, began looking for answers about the site after some urging by neighbors.
"My father theorized that a lot of people on our street were dying predominately of cancer," said Bronner. "It's never been proven."
The number of people suffering from various forms of cancer in the area of the site surprised his father, said Bronner. He and another prominent Albany attorney, Stephen R. Coffey, took the state and federal government to task. Their fight started in the late 1970s and came to an end when initial steps toward cleanup began in 1984.

If your Christmas and holiday season was as happily memorable as you have made all of last year for me, that means you've just completed the most rewarding and peaceful year of your lives. I hope you will continue to enjoy and appreciate every precious day of life on our lakeshore, and I wish you the best New Year ever.
Bell-ringing was a beautiful experience, as it's always been. When kids who can barely toddle stop to plunk in 26 cents (give or take a quarter sometimes) and then hear from mom or dad how much that will do for others not quite so lucky in life, it's beyond heartwarming to see the little squirts get smiley and wide-eyed because they're helping make a difference.

At the Exxon off of Texas Avenue and University Drive, people are trying out their luck with the Powerball jackpot. For some it's the first time.
Alonso Robles, a first time player has set up plans just in case he wins.
"A nicer car and maybe get a bigger house for my folks or something like that, but other than that I'm gonna keep quiet if I do win."
He's not the only one with big plans.
"I could set up all my grandkids for college and everything. I could retire," said Charles Paties
Charles Paties says it's his first time playing in Texas.
"Every once and awhile I buy a ticket I don't buy it regularly, but when there's a big, big pot I buy one."
But some customers choose not to spend their money on the lotto.
Store owner, Hyder Mohammed says so far in one day people have spent hundreds on Powerball.
"I have seen new faces coming in. They're buying Powerball all day long," said Mohammed.
Right now the jackpot is over 500 million dollars and growing.
"As people buy more it will go up by to maybe 600 million by the end of the day," said Mohammed.

Red Lobster's biscuit was once touted as the most searched-for clone on the Web, and then a recipe wound up on Bisquick boxes. Here's my take on how to get a batch of the satisfying confection as if you'd ordered an entrée.
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
In a medium-sized bowl, combine the Bisquick with the Cheddar, milk, 2 tablespoons of the butter, and ¼ teaspoon of the garlic powder. Mix by hand until well combined.
Drop approximately ¼-cup portions of the dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet using an ice cream scoop. Bake until the tops of the biscuits begin to turn light brown, 15-17 minutes.
When you take the biscuits out of the oven, combine the remaining butter, garlic powder, and parsley flakes in a small bowl. Use a brush to spread this garlic butter over the tops of all the biscuits. Use up all of the butter.

Plasticity of DNA methylation in mouse T cell activation and differentiation

Circulating CD4+ T helper cells are activated through interactions with antigen presenting cells and undergo differentiation into specific T helper cell subsets depending on the type of antigen encountered. In addition, the relative composition of the circulating CD4+ T cell population changes as animals mature with an increased percentage of the population being memory/effector type cells.
Here, we report on the highly plastic nature of DNA methylation at the genome-wide level as T cells undergo activation, differentiation and aging. Of particular note were the findings that DNA demethylation occurred rapidly following T cell activation and that all differentiated T cell populations displayed lower levels of global methylation than the non-differentiated population. In addition, T cells from older mice had a reduced level of DNA methylation, most likely explained by the increase in the memory/effector cell fraction. Although significant genome-wide changes were observed, changes in DNA methylation at individual genes were restricted to specific cell types. Changes in the expression of enzymes involved in DNA methylation and demethylation reflect in most cases the changes observed in the genome-wide DNA methylation status.
We have demonstrated that DNA methylation is dynamic and flexible in CD4+ T cells and changes rapidly both in a genome-wide and in a targeted manner during T cell activation, differentiation. These changes are accompanied by parallel changes in the enzymatic complexes that have been implicated in DNA methylation and demethylation implying that the balance between these opposing activities may play a role in the maintaining the methylation profile of a given cell type but also allow flexibility in a cell population that needs to respond rapidly to environmental signals.

Golden Flashes football kicked off October 30th, 1920, but when Trevor Rees took the reins as head coach in 1946, the team really began making headlines. Rees coached for 18 seasons, and during his time, Kent joined the Mid-American Conference (1951), made its first bowl appearance in the Refrigerator Bowl (1954) and posted thirteen winning seasons.
In 1972, three years after the team's current home, Dix Stadium, was finished, the Golden Flashes had their most successful season, winning the MAC Conference title and advancing to the Tangerine Bowl. Much of the success came on the backs of Nick Saban—yes, that Crimson Tide Nick Saban—and Pro Football Hall of Famer Jack Lambert. Don the Blue and Gold with this instant-classic and gear up for another action-packed season at Dix Stadium. Fight on, Flashes!
With a century of hooping it up on the hardwood, your Golden Flashes joined the MAC in 1951 and have established a dominant tradition in the last three decades. Beginning in 1998, your team has been dominating the boards with 20-win seasons from 1998 through 2008, and during the tenure, they've won the MAC five times and made it to the title game five additional times. Whether you're watching your Blue and Gold trounce the Zips front-and-center at Memorial Athletic and Convocation Center or cheering from afar, flash your eternal allegiance in this super-soft classic.
There is only one original Frisbee® Disc—picture this one sailing high and flying true above the Commons!
An old favorite featuring a rolled-over cuff and pom on top. Perfect for those chilly days at Dix Stadium.

US based Satellite telephone company Iridium Communications failed to give New Zealand rescuers details of a dramatic final message from a missing yacht Nina until the US State Department intervened, a detailed review of the search effort has revealed.
In this undated photo provided by Maritime New Zealand, the yacht Nina is tied at dock at a unidentified location.
The report, released this week into the search for the vintage American yacht Nina, which disappeared in the Tasman Sea in June 2013 with six Americans and one Britsh sailor aboard, said the entire dynamic of the rescue operation would have changed had the message been delivered earlier.
The critically important message was a text sent on a satellite phone by crew member Evi Nemeth to NZ meteorologist Bob McDavitt on June 4 revealing Nina had shredded her storm sails after being caught in a strom force winds.
An extract from the report, shows just what could have been.
McDavitt is a well-known and respected meteorologist who retired in 2012 from the NZ Met office where he had responsibility for marine and aviation weather forecasting. Now as a consultant he provides services to cruising yachts, providing weather forecasts and voyage forecasts. (www.metbob.com.)
On Monday 3rd at 1500 June that Evi Nemeth called Bob McDavitt indicating that they were experiencing some rough weather and requested a weather forecast and best passage advice.
Evi Nemeth and Bob McDavitt made a number of text and email exchanges through Monday 3rd and and Tuesday 4
The critical messages are detailed below.
0930 – Tuesday 4th June
text message via satphone Evi Nemeth to Bob McDavitt:-
Any weather for Nina – S33 54 E165 18
1125 – Tuesday 4th June
Bob McDavitt replies:- Stay hove-to until around 6pm Wednesday. SW wind peak at 45 to 60 kts was
around 6am today. Peak swell 8 significant around 9pm tonight
1150 – Tuesday 4th June – Evi Nemeth replies to Bob McDavitt and or possibly
Thanks storm sails shredded last night, now bare poles. Going 4kts 310 deg.
Will update course info at 6pm.
THIS 1150 MESSAGE WAS NEVER DELIVERED TO BOB McDAVITT AND OR OTHERS. IT REMAINED IN THE IRIDIUM SYSTEM UNTILL FINALLY RELEASED BY IRIDIUM TO RCCNZ ON WEDNESDAY 3RD JULY
The Search and Resuce authorities the Australia-bound yacht was merely running late due to rough weather as Iridium did not pass on the text revealing it was in trouble, despite a June 15 request from RCCNZ for all relevant data regarding the Nina, the review said.
As concerns about the yacht mounted, the operation moved into 'distress phase' on June 27, meaning aerial searches were stepped up amid grave fears for the lives of the Nina's crew.
But the review, written by former Australian maritime rescue chief David Baird, said Iridium still did not pass on the message until July 3, after the RCCNZ asked US authorities for help in dealing with the Iridium, a US based company.
'Even if this message had remained undelivered but its contents provided to RCCNZ when they first contacted Iridium on 15th June, then the whole dynamic of the search would have started at another level and the distress phase would have been declared much earlier,' it said.
Nina - new satellite image
No trace of the Nina has ever been found, despite a search that Baird found was thorough and professionally conducted.
'It is my firm view as the reviewer that this unfortunate result cannot not be attributed to any lack of action, commitment or effort by (New Zealand rescuers),' he said.
He called for better information sharing from satellite phone operators in search and rescue operations.
In what many observers would see as a statement, which has world wide search and resuce impications, Baird writes.
'RCCNZ needs to engage with Iridium and other service providers to explore ways in which information on communications can be provided without having to resort to engaging police and other authorities such as the (US) State Department,'

Bright red lipstick has long been the symbol of a sexy glamorous girl. It says something strong about the girl!
When we wear a really bright red lipstick we are saying look at us. It does just attracts attention it demands attention. It makes us stand out from the crowd we are in.
Hair and Facial Skin Conditioning Tips For Women Of Color
What are your personal thoughts on beauty? Do you view everything you can on the subject and try to improve upon your own physical beauty? There are numerous resources available, such as magazines, videos, books and shows. So where do you begin with your own regimen? Try going through these tips to find your starting point.
Drink a lot of water if you prefer to clear up your skin naturally and want to save money. Hydration with nature's basic element, water, has the ability to cleanse your pores and release toxins that have accumulated in your skin. This internal cleansing can lead to healthier and clearer skin.
Choose products appropriate for your skin type. When it comes to facial products for example lotions, toners and/or cleansers you definitely need to make sure they are totally appropriate for your particular skin type. Just using the right skin products can make fantastic improvement. always combine it however with a good quality full face mask every week.
The accumulated foundation under the cap of your bottle makes a great concealer. Use that concentrated product in place of concealer. The concealer is a great solution to covering up any imperfections.
You know those pimples that always come up when you don't want them. Dab on a green colour camouflage concealer. I know that sounds weird but that green colour effectively neutralises the red tone so my normal foundation and concealer can be applied with no red showing through. That also works great for rashes and rosacea as well.
Applying Liquid Eye Liner.
I used to find that I could see a very uneven almost wobbly line around my eye. A great tip a friend (who is a professional make up guru) said I should always keep my eyes fully open and start with three separate lines. The first in the corner of the eye nearest the nose. The second in the middle then the last one on the other corner. only after that going back and connecting the shorter lines to make it look like one long one.
If you have discovered little white bumps under your eyes, know that these are called Milia and are quite common. They are a harmless form of a cyst caused by dry, dead cells being trapped under the skin. You can try exfoliation or use a moisturizer that includes an exfoliant with vitamin A to help them disappear, and prevent them in the future.
If the urge to cry strikes, tilt your head forward so that your tears drop straight down instead of running down your face. This will minimize the effect that your tears have on your makeup.
Using Lipstick Tips
I swear by using a lip balm every single day to keep my lips looking beautiful all the time. Simply apply it before going to bed at night and then again straight after breakfast the next day just before adding your normal bright red lipstick. You can be certain your lips will always stay looking young and full. No need for botox later.
If you are able to afford it, try buying two of all beauty products, no matter if it is lipstick, hand cream, or foundation. Keep these in a place that is convenient, like your purse or at work. This way you'll be prepared if you forget to apply your makeup, or run out of time before going to work.
Did you know that a bright red lipstick with a slight blue undertone whilst maybe looking a cool colour also helps to make your teeth look whiter. A lipstick with an undertone of orange will do the opposite and make your teeth look more yellow. Which do you think makes more sense and improves that sexy smile?
A soft matte lipstick even a pink colour will take the attention away from imperfections. This can help take away from puffy eyes or blemishes.
Did you buy a lipstick that is just too bright? Almost impossible but there are times when your normal bright red lipstick is just too much for some occasions. Try this idea to tone it down a little to match your skin tone. Put the lipstick on the back of your hand. Mix in some of your facial skin foundation and then apply it to your lips. A perfect and effective solution that saves buying another lipstick.
Lip liner is frequently used by women to give shape and definition to their lips. Please, please don't make the mistake of using lip liner to "draw" your lips on, completely independent of your actual lip shape. You are far better off using lip liner to define your lip's natural shape, filling in with lipstick. An artificial lip line is clownish, unsubtle, and unflattering. If your lips are thin, stick with a fresh color that's not too bright – a berry tone, for example. You could even try a soft extra creamy lipstick.
Running short of time and in a hurry to go out. You can save tons of time and still look good. Use some of that waxy type of lip balm on one fingertip. Add your normal dark eyeliner to it and smear over your eyes. Then all you need to do is finish off with your mascara and lipstick and job done and your are away on time again. Try a Diamond sparkle lipstick to get a glamorous effect that makes your lips look like you took absolutely ages.
Now that you have an idea on where to start crafting your own personal beauty regimen, are you ready to start experimenting? Are you ready to apply what you have read to your body? Can you start bettering your appearance properly and smartly? If you can, then have fun! If not, make sure you go back through the tips again.
Now get out there with your bright red lipstick and really enjoy yourself.

A characterization of harmonic foliations by variations of the metric
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: In this paper it is shown that a harmonic Riemannian foliation of a Riemannian manifold can be characterized as being a critical point of the energy of the foliation under certain variations of the manifold's Riemannian metric. These variations are those induced by the flows of vector fields on the manifold.
