BabyCenter Editors' review*
What it is:
The Snuza Trio Plus delivers ultimate parent peace of mind. It features an excellent video monitor, complete with voice-activated display, night vision, and a camera that pans, tilts, and zooms. The breathing detection device securely and unobtrusively clips onto the front of your baby's diaper and vibrates to stimulate him if it detects no abdominal movement after 15 seconds. After another five seconds with no abdominal movement, it sounds an audible alarm. (It can be used on the back or side of your baby's diaper, but this may result in false alarms.) Both monitors are portable and can be used together or independently, so you can continue to use the video monitor well into the toddler years.
What to watch out for:
The breathing monitor is most useful for infants who aren't yet flipping onto their stomach. Parents with an older baby might want to seek out a video monitor sold separately to save money.

The One with the Ballroom Dancing
Episode Reviews (7)
Gay innuendo.
This episode was pretty funny with all of Joey's gay innuendo. I like how the janitor left Joey in the end after Joey started liking it. Phoebe's plot was okay, sort of a filler on her behalf but was pretty funny. I like how the guy ended up having a wife & Phoebe ends up getting fired after 4 years! Hopefully she doesn't go on the streets again. Anyways, the best plot out of all of them which is so true in any sort of club you go in to was Chandler quitting the gym & Ross ends up joining. A very good episode.moreless
Another superb season four episode.
This episode is okay. Many storylines pushed together but mainly focusing on Joey and his dancing experince with the super. I felt that Rachel and Monica weren't there in this episode but I liked Phoebe standing out for ounce. Phoebe tries to ignore her sexual urges when she massages a very attractive man and Chandler and Ross try to quit the gym and close their bank accounts but fail due to their own sexual urges. It's funny how everything is foucused around sex and how gorgeous people can be so persuasive and in my oponion the characters in friends having no control over themselves in these situations is a very funny thing.
Another very good episode yet it dosen't really do any good to long term story and by that I mean it dosen't really connect events with each other which we can look forward too in the next episodes.moreless
In order to save his friends from eviction Joey takes dancing lessons with the super. Chandler tries to quit the gym. Hillarious.
I don't really like when writer make up a habit of a character to make a story work. In this case the story line depends of the constant crying of Rachel. But as you can see - she does this very rarely. But this time I can forgive them fully.
I think it is the first Friends episode written by Andrew Reich and Ted Cohen. They didn't try to bring the main story forward, they just made three nice sketches of everyday situations. Well - not really everyday situations , but not as unusal as giving birth to you brother's triplets. Have you ever asked yourself why there is still space left in gyms, while everyone seems to be member of at least one gym? This episodes eyxplains everything - the gyms have their special methods to keep their clients. Ross and Chandler work great together to explain this mystery. Joey srews up and provokes the super. In order to make it up he has to do ballroom dancing classes with the full figured Mr Treeger which culminates in a hillaroius ballroom dancing on the roofs of New York. Phoebe got a story line too, but her part is not as intersting as the adventures of the boys. She is in love with an massage client and gets fired. Nice, but not great.moreless
gym and ballroom dancing
Chandler wants to quit the gym but can't. He ends up getting the support from Ross but Ross ends up joining the gym. After Mr Treeger makes Rachel cry Joey goes down to talk to him and ends up being told that Monica and Rachel have illegally subletted their apartment and he will say something but Joey tells him he will be his dance partner.
a funny episode
rachael upsets the janitor at the apartments so gets joey to sort him out. joey then has to teach ballroom dancing to him so he wont tell the landlord that monica is living there illegally as a sublet. pheobe is attracted to her massage client and gives him a 3 hour massage. they go out for about 1 minute. and finally ross helps chandler try to quit his gym but ends up also joining then they try to close their bank accounts and end up getting ajoint account. so all in all a very good episode. lol ha ha ha.moreless
Joey ballroom dances with the maintenance man.
While Rachel attempts to shove a pizza box down the garbage shoot, the maintanance man, Treger, snaps at her because he just finished unclogging the shoot when she comes along and is about to clog it up again. He calls her a princess who has to call Daddy and makes her cry. She goes back to her apartment crying, and Joey decides to pay Treger a visit because no one makes his friends cry. Upon confronting treger, He threatens to get Monica and Rachel kicked out of the building for subletting their apartment illegally. Joey goes to tell them they might get evicted and Monica tells him to suck up to treger like he's never sucked before.
Joey goes back to see if their anything he can do to get treger to change his mind. Treger tells him that he wants Joey as a partner for ballroom dancing. Treger is going to a ball and wants to impress another female supervisor with his dance moves, but is too shy to dance with a girl and needs to practice. Joey agrees, and they dance. Joey seems to really enjoy it and is bummed to find out that Treger doesn't need to dance with him anymore. But he offers Joey to come along to the ball because he can dance with the lady supervisor's friend, whose just about his size. Joey smiles and gracefully declines.moreless
This episode is so funny!!!
In this fantastic episode, Mr. Treeger makes Rachel cry. Joey is mad that Mr. Treeger made Rachel cry, so he goes to make him apologize to Rachel. But when Joey is arguing with him, Mr. Treeger says that he's going to tell the landlord that Monica and Rachel are living in their apartment illegally. Now the only way Joey can get Treeger to not tell the landlord, is if he becomes Treeger's ballroom dance partner. Meanwhile, Phoebe is having trouble trying not to be attracted to one of her massage clients. And Chandler is having a very hard time trying to quit his gym, so Ross goes along with Chandler for moral support.
I think this episode is so hilarious. I absolutely love this episode!moreless

The week has come...now we can go head to head and see who comes out the winner.
I think it will be a close game. One of us will remain at the top of the pile. Who will it be?
I guess it all depends on whether ole man Farve has a good game still in him ...
Yep...it is all sitting in favre's hands now.
OK, Hammerhead ... I see it's time for some serious head banging ... I'm up for it, are you down with it ...
:D I am ready.:DQuote:

Of course I am impressed. Anyone who is on top deserves to pound away at anything they can come up with.Quote:

I am feeling good about this weeks match up, so beware adarian. I don't think old man favre is going to save you this time. Wilkins, Jackson, and Holt might do pretty well for you though and I can't root against them. Hopefully Palmer, E James and the Jags all step up and play for me this week. I hope they don't start pulling starters and relaxing before the playoffs.
Good luck to all in the playoffs.
Who could have imagined that barely half-way through the weekend, I would be beaten into submission? My only hope now is that there is a turn-around and I get to 69 points. With that kind of point total I'm sure I'll still be in the game ...Quote:

So that's what it's like for you to be on top? Couldn't have asked for a better fit ... :)
Wow, a typical male comment coming from you adarian. I am a little surprised, but it is ok. Do what you need to do to accept defeat from a woman.Quote:

The sniff of green leaves and dry leaves, and of the shore and dark-color'd sea-rocks, and of hay in the barn,
Walt Whitman connects with his audience by drawing on their shared experiences in the natural world. He describes the smell of "green leaves," the sea, and "hay of the barn" to further emphasize the connection between man and nature. Both Whitman and the audience have smelled these elements of nature and through describing this experience, Whitman is able to help his audience relate to him and his view of the natural world.

Help support your Meetup
I am forming this group to provide hiking and event experiences that seniors canenjoy and master. HIkes would be Easy to Moderate 4-6 mile hikes.. Maybe a nice lunch or a picnic after. I will advise on what to bring based on the hike ( pets, water etc..) By no means are younger folks excluded but wanted to post the group to appeal to over 55 to 100 year olds (Ha!). Hiking and walking are great ways to enjoy nature, get to know others and feel great when the day is done.
AS this group has developed, we have found common interests outside of the hiking so I am expanding the focus of the group to include occasional outings and festivals. If this is the only area of interest to you that is fine, but we will most likely be picking active events to attend.

LangaLanga Chalkboards
This very special range of chalkboards has been manufactured under a fair trade agreement and are handmade in Kenya. All people involved in the production of these boards are given good working conditions and paid a fair price for their work.
Boards are suitable for both outdoor and indoor use, however given the nature of the materials used they need to be placed undercover outdoors in order to ensure longevity.
All of the chalkboards are made from 6mm MDF.
Each board is produced by hand individually, meaning that each one is unique! All paints used are non-toxic and lead free. Boards are pre-drilled but do not include fixings.
Animal Chalkboards
This friendly group of animals will brighten up any outdoor play area. Why not place together to make up your own band of 'wild' animals.
Each animal has white paint detailing, but still incorporates plenty of space for budding artists to try out their talent.
Why not utilise for other areas of your school - the fish makes a great original menu board.
Rhino - Size: 90 x 56cm
Hippo - Size: 90 x 52cm
Elephant - Size: 90 x 58cm
Fish - Size: 90 x 67cm
Shapes Chalkboards
These shapes are great for reinforcing your maths principles.
Ideal for use both outdoor and in, they are large enough for 2-3 children to use simultaneously.
Square - Size: 80 x 80cm

Becoming one of America's most recognized artists is the dream of many, but most often remains merely a dream -- rarely does it become a reality.
Dale Chihuly made it to the top, but the journey getting there was not always an easy one.
Chihuly was a student of interior design and architecture in the early 1960s. By 1965, he had become captivated by the art of blowing glass. He enrolled in the hot glass program offered by the University of Wisconsin. The program was founded by Harvey Littleton; the father of the Contemporary Studio Movement in America.
In 1968, Chihuly was awarded a Fulbright grant to study glassblowing in Murano, Venice. It is often said his inspiration for his glass designs came from his experiences there. After Venice, he traveled to see the Libenskys in Czechoslovakia. Their workshop was known for their heavy cast glass sculptures. From there he went to Germany to visit one of his favorite glass artists, Erwin Eisch.
Chihuly received a degree in sculpture, and then entered the ceramics program at the Rhode Island School of Design. It was there Chihuly founded the schools glass program which has produced numerous recognized artists.
Chihuly didn't stop there. He co-founded the Pilchuck School in Washington in 1971. The Pilchuck School has brought together artists worldwide into the program. It has also helped place the area on the map as a mecca for contemporary artists.
In the fall of 1975, Chihuly was scheduled to lecture at a University in Ireland when tragedy struck. He was in an automobile accident that took one of his eyes. This could have been the end of a career for most artists; but not Chihuly. With the struggles of losing his depth perception came new collaborations. He now was less tied to the actual blowing of the glass, and could spend more of his efforts drawing and photographing his latest creations.
In 1978, Chihuly was offered a solo show at Renwick Gallery (part of The Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D.C.) This was a huge career move for Chihuly.
Since that time, Chihuly's works have traveled to museums all over the world. Documentaries about his life and his works air regularly on PBS. His dream of blowing glass had made the move from the Rhode Island School of Design, to Chihuly Inc, a multi-million dollar a year company creating glass for corporation, museums, and collectors worldwide.
If you've not had a "Chihuly" experience yet, you can find his works currently on display at:
City Center -- Las Vegas, NV -- now through December 2010
Frist Center of Visual Arts -- Nashville, TN -- now through January 2, 2011
For a list of permanent exhibits visit their website.

Reviews summary
Based on 2 reviews
Some time during the past decade, phones stopped being just phones and turned into all-purpose multimedia devices. But that doesn't mean that you can't buy models that are made mainly for calling and texting anymore just like in the good old days. Consider the Samsung Chrono 2. It's a basic budget phone that comes in the clamshell form factor.
Although billed as a no-frills entry level handset, it does offer a few useful extras. It boasts a 1-megapixel camera with a bunch of special features which include night mode, multi-shot, white balance, and self-timer. It also comes with Bluetooth connectivity and microSD card support. And it uses a 2.2-inch QVGA panel for its main screen which, when paired with its large alphanumeric keypad, makes messaging easy and straightforward.
The best thing about it is the fact that it's sold at a very affordable price point. It may not be tough as nails, but if it ever breaks, it'll be easy on the wallet to replace.
Need to Know: Samsung Chrono 2
1. Available at a very affordable price. (The Good)
2. Uses a large screen for its size. (The Good)
3. Camera performs poorly. (The Bad)
4. Only available in one color variant. (The Bad)
Specs summary
The Samsung Chrono 2's screen is 2.2 inches with 240 x 320 pixels resolution.
The phone runs on the Other operating system (OS).
Internal memory is No. An external, MicroSD, MicroSDHC (up to 32 GB) expansion slot is available for increased storage capacity.

Jade harley atom template by KimiGoOikaketaYumWatch
©2013-2016 KimiGoOikaketaYum
How to use:
options 1) use the full atom however you wish
option 2) (what I did) use the partial atom
-print out and cut it from a sturdy material (I used cardboard)
-set it onto the t shirt (I put the circle down first so I knew where exactly I wanted the center to be)
-outline in your paint or pen or whatever you want to use (I use Jaquard's fabric paint)
-when outlining, outline the little lines on the side, except the the ends
-turn your template so the singular oval thing matches up with a set of your extra lines and outline again
-turn again for the final set and outline that
-when you're done outlining, you can take the template off and color it and voila! Your Jade Harley atom is complete.
hope this is helpful
Jade Harley is from Homestuck

Old Hat New Hat (1970)
by Stan Berenstain, Jan Berenstain
No current Talk conversations about this book.
A good story considering how few words are needed in order to tell it. Also has a bit of an environmental message, or at least a consumer one: Sometimes there's nothing wrong with what you already have.
The Berenstain Bears are Out shopping, the Bears look at frilly and silly hats, bumpy and lumpy ones. This book presents an opportunity to present the concepts of sizes and shape to children using humor.
A bear with an old hat goes into a store after seeing a shiny new hat. After trying on several hats, he decides that his old hat is "just right". When he says that the store clerk is shocked that he would pick his old, worn hat over a brand new one. He decided's to keep his old hat and not buy a new one.
This book great for beginning readers because it is filled with short, easy, rhyming words. It is about someone looking for a new hat who visits the perfect hat store. He goes in and tries on dozens of hats but none seem to be as good as the old hat he came with.
Didn't realize the Berenstain Bears went this young. Anyway, here we have a fantastic vocabulary-building tool that shouts out its textures (fuzzy! holey! crooked! etc.!) and gives the adult reader a chance to do some fun prosodic and voicing stuff reading out all the different kinds of hats.

"Pretty Is What Pretty Does"
Event Dates and Times

LNT Safe Haven is a pre-crisis family and domestic violence awareness coalition. LNT Safe Haven was established to provide prevention services to families and individuals who may be experiencing violence but have not endured a crisis or disruption in the family setting. LNT defines domestic violence/family violence as a pattern of coercive behavior characterized by the domination and control of one person over another. Domestic violence generally occurs within intimate partner relationships. Family violence occurs within the family and can be adult against child, child against adult, adult against adult, or child against child. Domestic/Family violence can be physical, psychological, emotional, verbal, sexual, and/or economic abuse.
The curriculum we offer takes a total of 8 weeks to complete. There are 8 modules that take a total of 45 minutes to an hour to complete. This curriculum can be offered on a one-on-one basis or in a group setting. Each module has an expected outcome goal the individual must accomplish. As advocates, we will assist our consumers in understanding the definition of domestic abuse, how to maintain a healthy relationship, the warning signs, and how you can help another individual. We will conduct the group classes over at 119 South Foster Street Dothan, Alabama Suite 104 staring Jan. 2016. Each individual will receive a certificate of completion when finished with the curriculum and there will be a social gathering twice a year to celebrate the individuals who have completed the program. We have collaborated with Christina Kelley, the founder of ACTS Counseling Services for those consumers who need continual services after completing our program. We are very excited about this collaboration.
LNT Safe Haven will begin providing weekly family mentoring/educational support groups in January 2016. These support groups will be eight weeks long, lasting for one hour each week. We plan to hold four sessions throughout the year. The intention of this group will be to educate families on how to prevent further incidents of violence within the home. We are making plans to begin holding monthly support groups for women currently experiencing violence or those who have survived and are looking to move past the pain they've experienced. LNT Safe Haven will host "Pretty Is, As Pretty Does" on March 5, 2016. This event will be held at the George Washington Carver Interpretive Museum located on North Foster Street in Dothan. The purpose of this event will be to empower, uplift, and encourage women who are experiencing family violence. This event will be limited to fifteen women and their children in the community. Those interested in participating in this event can register through our Facebook or webpage, LNTSafeHaven.org. Registration will begin December 1, 2015 and continue until February 16, 2015. Early registration is recommended. We are currently seeking sponsors who are interested in supporting the first Wiregrass Domestic Violence walk. We are tentatively planning this event for October 2016 and would like to reach out to community leaders and other agencies who are interested in making this walk a success and continuing as an annual event.

And Two Become One: The Convergence of Social & Mobile
By Oracle Social Cloud-Oracle on Nov 18, 2014
Author: Amy Sorrells, Oracle Social Cloud
By now everyone should understand the importance of all things mobile. Yesterday at the annual WOMMA Summit, Terry City from BuzzFeed said the following that quickly garnered lots of Twitter love: "If it doesn't work on mobile, it doesn't work." And with every new smartphone sold this becomes increasingly right on.
(Image courtesy of WOMMA Summit)
The shift to social media being consumed on mobile devices is very real. But many brands' existing strategies are based on the wrong assumption that social is still a desktop/laptop thing. Do people still use desktops and laptops for social networking? Of course they do. It's just that social media usage is rising and it's being driven by the proliferation of smartphone adoption.
And it is not just social activities; mobile is driving changes across many behaviors from shopping to service to search.
Comscore says we in the U.S. spend 52% of our "digital time" on mobile apps. Mobile comprises 60% of digital media usage…a percentage that's rising at a rapid clip. Social, along with games and music, dominate mobile app usage, with Facebook the clear #1 for audience size and time spent.
When you drill down to how the individual social networks are predominantly engaged, 98% of the time U.S. users spend with Instagram is on mobile. For Pinterest it's 92%, Twitter 86%, and Facebook 68%. So taking these kinds of statistics into consideration, an aware social marketer would have no choice but to start thinking about social solely in terms of how it plays out for users on mobile.
Brands and advertisers start doing damage to their company when they don't stay in step with real changes in consumer behavior.
And here's what that behavior looks like: There are more people in this world that own smartphones than own toothbrushes. Four out of five consumers use smartphones to shop. 52% of Americans use mobile for in-store research. 70% of mobile searches lead to online action within an hour. People that find you on mobile convert at almost 3x the rate as those that find you on desktop/laptop. Those using mobile are out and about, living their lives and ready to socially engage.
Smartphones aren't just lighter laptops. They are enabled with innovative and valuable opportunities—think sensors, beacons, location-based recognition. They can bring hyper-local targeting, personalization and context marketing to life.
Mary Meeker's State of the Internet report brought us some curious figures that illustrate a disconnect between where the public is spending their media time, and how much ad spend goes there. For instance, print usage is at 5% and dropping, yet the spend by advertisers comfortably jogging behind consumer behavior is 19%.
Looking at overall mobile ad market trends, however, things look like they're heading in a reasonably right direction. BI Intelligence says it will grow the fastest amongst digital options, going over $32.6 billion in 2018 with social leading the way. eMarketer thinks mobile ad spend will surpass desktop PC advertising by 2016, then TV advertising by 2018, with Facebook controlling at least 71% of the mobile ad market.
Today businesses need a strategic social paid, owned and earned strategy – and it needs to be a mobile-first strategy. Do you forget about desktop/laptop usage? Of course not, you are still reaching and engaging there, but it's dwindling. Mobile must take priority. The relationships you're building with your customers on social, using the data they're handing you via social + other enterprise data, with content served up at a time and place of convenience and high relevance, targeted and amplified with mobile ad options, is the increasingly obvious path to pursue.

Aquarama 2015 to Include Public Aquaria Program
According to the organizers, Aquarama is the leading biennial international ornamental fish, aquatic plants, invertebrates and accessories trade exhibition in the world. It started back in 1989 and has attracted exhibitors, trade and public visitors from all corners of the globe. The next exhibition that is scheduled to run from 28-31 May 2015 is said to be an affair not to be missed! The organizers and a specially convened public aquarium committee are launching a program of sub-events aimed specifically at public aquarium personnel. This committee, consisting of Scott Dowd (Senior Aquarist at the New England Aquarium, Boston, USA), Ramon Barbosa (Senior Curator at the S.E.A. Aquarium in Sentosa, Singapore) and Rob Jones ('The Aquarium Vet' and veterinarian at the SEA LIFE Melbourne Aquarium, Australia) and co-ordinated by Aquarama Consultant, John Dawes, is devising a program of activities tailored to the needs of the public aquarium industry, as well as the fostering of closer links between the home aquarium industry and public aquaria.

Our Favorite Fish That Made an Appearance in 2012
Over the past 12 months, we have written all about new aquarium equipment releases from a whole bunch of different manufacturers, and we would be remiss if we didn't talk about all of the exciting rare livestock that showed up this year. After all, it's the livestock that is the driving force in this hobby. So, we've compiled a year long roundup of some of our favorite fish that we wrote about in 2012. Some of the fish in our list are showing up as one-of-a-kind aberrant individuals, while others are just so rare in the hobby that their presence is deserving of our attention. Either way, the list is full of fish that we'd only be lucky to see in a public aquarium or in a video online. Read More… More:

HAMILTON striker Stevie May says Accies have nothing to lose when they face Partick Thistle this evening.
Billy Reid's side head into the Firhill clash on the back of a frustrating derby draw with Airdrie on Saturday that saw May rescue a point in the dying seconds of the game.
Accies have beaten the Jags twice this season, both at New Douglas Park, and head to Glasgow aiming to improve on a 4-0 defeat earlier in the campaign.
The Lanarkshire side have a busy schedule coming up but May is relishing the challenge as they look to climb the Irn-Bru First Division standings.
He said: "I am happy to be getting goals but I think three points on Saturday would have been the main thing.
"Goals are what strikers are judged on and I am happy with my goal tally so far.
"We are all looking forward to the Thistle game although we know it is going to be tough.
"We will be there to fight. We had a good outing against them the last time so they will probably be wary of us and we have nothing to lose.
"We are playing Saturday and Tuesday but as a footballer you just want to play in as many games as possible.
"There will be a lot of tired legs about but you would rather have that than having a week between games."

To clarify the effects of adenosine on pain signals, we tested intrathecal adenosine injection in two neuropathic pains (spinal cord compression and chronic constriction of sciatic nerve) and postoperative pain (plantar incision).
In all three kinds of pain models, significant shortening of withdrawal latencies to thermal stimulation were detected from 24 h to 1 week after the surgery. Significant improvements of pain sensation were observed in all three models after intrathecal injection of Cl-adenosine 24 h after surgery. At 72 h after surgery, intrathecal Cl-adenosine injection inhibited hyperalgesia in the two neuropathic pain models but not in the postoperative pain model. Adenosine A1R messenger RNA (mRNA) expression significantly decreased in the plantar incision model. Adenosine A1R protein levels also decreased compared with the other two models and normal control.
These results suggest that adenosine effectively inhibits pain signals in neuropathic pain but is less effective in postoperative pain because of the decrease in adenosine A1 receptors.

David Cameron's attempt to gatecrash the Olympic party has backfired spectacularly
Team GB have an enjoyed an Olympics beyond their wildest dreams. Team Cameron, on the other hand, have had a bit of a shocker.
Yesterday Jessica Ennis, the recently crowned queen of British athletics, was asked if she agreed with the Prime Minister's comments about needing to introduce a more competitive attitude to sport. "You don't want it to be too competitive at the start," she responded. "It's all about the love and enjoyment of the event". Cue attempts by certain members of the Downing Street press office to grab gold in the hotly contested final of Putting Your Foot Through The TV.
Before the Games started, there was lots of talk about using our summer of sporting success as a "firebreak" to contain the Government's political woes. Swept up in the moment we would forget all about cuts and double-dip recessions, giving ministers a much needed breathing space, and the opportunity to return from the summer recess refreshed and emboldened.
And as strategies go, it wasn't a bad one. Except that for reasons best known to themselves, No 10 have decided not to pursue it.
If you want to build a firebreak it's important to ensure you're standing the right side of it. But Downing Street have done precisely the opposite. Instead of attempting to use the Olympic party as a distraction from the Government's political problems, they've instead tried to get the Government to gatecrash the heart of the Olympic party. And it's backfired.
You don't have to be a genius to work out what discussions were taking place between David Cameron and his senior advisers in the weeks leading up to the games. They've effectively unleashed operation John Terry. "OK PM, we're going to win lots of gold medals. If we can get lots of pics of you cheering on Tom Daley and Mark Cavendish; maybe sort a couple of minutes with Clare Balding, we're laughing. Oh, but one thing. No showjumping."
Sadly in the first few days of the games the Prime Minister proved to have the Medusa, rather than the Midas, touch; gold medal chance after gold medal chance vanishing before his increasingly frustrated gaze. But even if we'd won every gold, and the nightly news bulletins had been filled with our PM blubbing tears of patriotic joy as God Save the Queen echoed around the Aquatic Centre, it wouldn't have made any difference.
The great British public aren't interested in politicians at the moment. In fact most people are heartily sick of them. And they've enjoyed the fact the Olympics has, for most part, been a politics-free zone.
The most effective way for David Cameron to build a genuine firebreak across the first half of his omnishambolic 2012 was actually to get people to forget David Cameron even exists. Tempting though the glittering photo opportunities may have been, ministers should not have used the Olympics to try and boost the Government, but to draw a veil over it.
"Show don't tell" should have been the approach: let the PM appear at the opening ceremony, let him appear at the closing ceremony, and in between let everyone know he's sure the Games are going to be a fantastic success, and that we should all enjoy them while he stays working diligently at his desk, tapping away to the occasional burst of Mariachi music from the Whitehall beach volleyball. Then when everything has been a spectacular triumph, we all turn round and say "Oh look, that's David Cameron standing next to the Queen and getting on down to George Michael. Dave's actually done quite a good job of organising all this hasn't he?"
But instead of "show don't tell", we've had "show ourselves up". What genius decided the middle of the Olympics was the moment to announce the Coalition was falling apart at the seems over Lords reform and the boundary review? If someone really thought Super Saturday was the perfect day to bury Nick Clegg they need to get the their head examined; preferably by that doctor who gave Algerian runner Taoufik Makhlou his sick note.
Over the last fortnight David Cameron's managed to get himself embroiled in rows about competitive sports, rows about the selling off of sports-fields and rows about Olympic ticketing. For heaven's sake, the guys supposed to be First Minister, not First Ticket Tout.
Yesterday we even had the spectacle of George Osborne touring the TV studios in response to Mervyn King's latest gloomy prognostications on the state of the economy. What's that supposed to achieve? The Chancellor currently has the same feel-good factor as the Grim Reaper; and who seriously bothers to take notice of what Mervyn King says anymore?
Someone suggested to me this is all prompted by Downing Street's need to counter the "Boris Effect". Well good luck with that. The Olympics are Boris's time, and the Stratford stadium his manor. If David Cameron and his advisers thought he could out-abseil, out-cheerlead and out-glistening-otter the People's Mayor then he really is in trouble.
We still have a couple more days of our glorious Olympic summer left. And the Prime Minister would be well advised to sit back and leave us and our Olympians to it. There's almost three years to the next election, which leaves ample time to construct an effective firebreak. Though next time he should take better take care over on which side of it Downing Street sits.

I really hate my job. I'm sitting here trying to pep-talk myself into putting a smile on my face for my shift that starts in about an hour. I dread going into work. There is a never-ending list of responsibilities that seems to stretch out into forever every time I go into work. I have to deal with obnoxious family members who interrogate me, watch me like a hawk, and criticize my coworkers to me constantly. My back aches and my feet hurt all the damn time. I don't get paid for 30 minutes of every shift because I'm supposed to get a break to sit down for a minute and eat something, but that never happens. No breaks. I'm tired of being slapped/punched/kicked/spit on/scratched/cursed at for trying to help people who need it. Not to mention trying to do laundry, empty all the trash cans, and mop and sweep in between caring for my residents.
Every time I have to go into work, I get teary and panicky, and all I can think is, "Please, not today. I just can't do another day." And then I go, I paste a smile onto my face, I sweat my ass off and bust my butt to get everything done, and I go home only to have nightmares about work as I sleep. I don't understand why I hate this job so much, and I wish I didn't. I wish I could be psyched (or at least neutral) about going into work every day, but this gut-wrenching dread that makes me feel like I'm going to puke has got to stop. UGH! I don't want to quit because a) the place needs more hands, and I don't want to leave them short-handed and b) I need some experience in the field, but...this is so exhausting. I don't know how long I can do this for.

How to Choose the Best Bathtub
Replacing your bathtub is a relatively simple way to upgrade the look of your washroom and should be a part of any major bathroom renovation. But with the huge variety of bathtub types available, you might find it confusing to balance price against the need for longevity and customization.
Here's a rundown of some of the most popular tubs and how they stack up.
Porcelain on steel tubs
Porcelain on steel (PoS) bathtubs come at the lowest cost — $200 to $400 — and new home builders favor these tubs because they're easy to install. They're stamped out of a solid steel piece and coated in porcelain, which makes the tubs resistant to abrasion during thorough scrubbing. These models don't have a substantial lifespan, however, and you may need to replace them every decade or so.
RELATED: Pros and Cons of Walk-in Bathtubs
Fiberglass tubs
Another cost-effective option for a new tub is fiberglass, which range from $200 to $500. Also known as FRP, these tubs are made by spraying polyester resin into a mold, which hardens into a durable, scratch-resistant coating.
Fiberglass is composed of interwoven glass strings that turn into a gelatin-like substance when heated, allowing the product to be spread over a mold. Once dry, the finished product is popped out of its mold and shipped. These tubs are among the lightest you can purchase, but their color may fade over time.
How to Update Your Bathroom for Less
Acrylic bathtubs
Costwise, the next step up from fiberglass is acrylic, which typically costs $1,300 to $1,500. These tubs start as a large piece of acrylic that's heated and pulled over a mold. They're then vacuumed tightly onto the mold, reinforced with fiberglass and resin and removed. Although they cost more than fiberglass bathtubs, they're easy to clean, durable, and difficult to scratch. Potential drawbacks in their construction include thin spots near tub corners if the acrylic was pulled too tight.

Cast iron tubs
These tubs are among the most expensive, costing $2,000 or more, and normally weigh two to three hundred pounds. Considering these factors, you'll want to hire a pro for any cast iron bathtub you install. They're made by pouring molten iron into a mold and are nearly impervious to dents, scratches or chemicals.
Cast iron tubs can be either built into a bathroom wall or come as classic standalone models with metal claw feet and a glossy porcelain finish. Low noise, reduced vibration and superior heat retention are all characteristics of these tubs, and most manufacturers offer a lifetime guarantee for as long as you own the tub. Bear in mind, however, that customization options are limited here. Most cast irons aren't more than five feet long, and you can't install extra features like whirlpool jets.
RELATED: Top Kitchen and Bathroom Remodeling Trends for 2015

Americast options
An alternative to cast iron is the Americast tub made by American Standard. In 1988, the company introduced the Americast material, which has half the weight of iron but is just as thick and durable with excellent heat retention. The company makes three models: the Stratford ($1,000), which is a whirlpool, the Princeton ($700), which has several luxury features, and the Cambridge ($500), a standard five-foot model.
The variety of types available on the market lets you pick and choose the best bathtub for you. Cost, durability or customization are all possible depending on how much you want to spend if you prefer a DIY or professional installation.

This part of Don's answer follows my thoughts exactly:
"You want to deal with a professional person that is selling you a bath that was not working as a cashier a few months ago."
Do you go to the gracery store and ask for someone to cook your steak? Of course not. So why would you go to a building supply store and ask for someone to remodel your bathroom? Rarely will you see a legitimate contractor take jobs from a retailer. Why? Because they don't pay much. Speed is the most important thing to them, along with getting it done cheap so they can maximize profit. About 10 years ago I worked on a few contracted structures (sheds, garages, etc.) from Home Depot. They contracted to another company who then contracted people to build them. At that time they paid a flat $250 for a contractor to pick up the supplies, build the structure on site, paint it, and use their own tools. By the time the cost of a helper, fuel, tools, etc. was factored in there was nothing left for the contractor. Anyway, the point I'm making is that the guy who will eventually show up to do the work will be so far down the line that everyone else has already taken the profits (Home Depot, ReBath, possibly someone else, and finally the guy working) that he probably isn't going to care what kind of job he does for you, quality or not. He likely won't have much experience due to a high turnover rate and any experience he does have will probably be limited to his teachings at that job. He probably can't answer any building code questions or identify other hazards once things are taken apart and he certainly won't do anything he doesn't have to while it is apart.
Another problem I've heard of repeatedly is that if (when) there is a problem there is always someone else you need to speak to. You might have to talk to 4 or 5 different people before you can even get to someone that can address the problem. Now multiply that due to having (at least) two separate companies involoved. "You need to call ReBath." "No, you need to call Home Depot."
You hire a general contractor for a reason. We learn, understand, and keep up on building codes. We are the one point of contact for all questions and issues on a project. There is no manager in some other store, state, etc. to call. You contract a GC and deal directly with that GC, or a site supervisor in some cases. There isn't a huge chain of command to get through to reach the main decision maker for the business. In a bathroom remodel you need someone who can do the plumbing, repair and/or move any electrical, install tile/flooring, drywall and paint, trim carpentry, and someone to coordinate all of that. Sometimes you can find a qualified contractor to do all of those things and sometimes he will sub-contract out certain components (especially due to licensing laws) but you will always have that one definitive person to go to for any questions or issues. A salesman in a store doesn't visit your home throughout the project to check on the status. Even if he did, he likely wouldn't now what he is looking at. The same goes for a retail manager.
Hire someone who specializes in taking care of your home. Hire based on reputation & knowledge/experience. You are right that not every customer can be happy so an occassional bad review can be found on just about any business. Read the reviews, not the grades (they are always biased). Look to see if the contractor attempted to rectify the problem, not ignore it. Lastly, unless you want cheap, sloppy work and a whole heap of other troubles, don't hire based on a low price.
You gave a good description, but without seeing some photos and maybe even the space itself it would still just be a guess.
A few years ago we replaced a significant load bearing beam to raise it up a foot in the new kitchen. It was nearly 17' long with a new LVL beam. For us this was pretty reasonable. The LVL was about $250. And maybe 12-15 2x6s, to temporarily support the ceiling joists, were probably like another $75. The labor was $800. There was also some finish work done afterward, but that was worked into a much bigger job for the entire floor.
Technically speaking, it is likely that you need to have something spec'd out by an engineer or architect, to calculate load, etc. I don't know your area but in most places "a mere contractor, GC, or carpenter" is probably not allowed to just rip out a load-bearing wall without someone who is qualified to do the load calculations (which will be VERY conservative. A brand new LVL will be VASTLY stronger than it really needs to be, but it won't be expensive. The typical contractor will be like "hey we'll sister up two 2x12s", and not really know if that'll do the trick or not. I'm not saying that all guys are like that, but ... it is what it is.
What you are talking about is probably at least a bit more involved and I'd love to give a good estimate but it's hard to say without a better understanding of the space.
You may be looking at $1500 - $3500? It depends on too many specifics that we just can't know without a bunch of photos, and maybe even opening up a wall or ceiling to see exactly how temporary supports could be installed, and where the permanent beam/header could be placed and properly supported. Your span isn't all that big so if at all possible I would do it without columns - it'll be much nicer.
If I were you I would first have a quick consultation with a "professional engineer". They are qualified to calculate load etc - and cost a lot less than a full architect. In my experience, an engineer just wants to provide a quick, proper solution without a lot of extra BS. My experience with architects has been less than favorable. Too much drama and expense and he actually spec'd things wrong and my carpenter had to pick up on it.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck!!!
Our companie's policy is to prime the area with any bonding primer. This will seal the hairspray in and not let it affect the next coat of paint. It would also be a good idea to lightly sand the area first.
Our recommendation for primer would be Zinsser's BIN Spray (red can) and can be bought at most paint stores or home improvement stores. Other than that, any thing that specifically says "bonding" for a primer should be adequate enough.
