"I was thinking how complicated life is and how there are no simple roads or paths. We are a fabric of mistakes and hurts; a family tree of fumbled attempts, successes and failures."
― Belinda Jeffrey
There's been some discussion and comments about the use of genograms and I thought I would make some time to look at the use of genograms generally. There's a great deal that can be said about genograms and I should be clear that not every person, whether clinician or lay person, uses them in the same way or for the same purposes. So this post then, is a general discussion of genograms and how they can be used in therapeutic work. Maybe I will write another post about the specific value of using genograms for estrangement work, however I suspect even a broad discussion will make the value of genograms clear.
What is a genogram?
A genogram is a family diagram, which can be thought of as an elaboration of the family tree. Genograms provide a way of mapping family patterns and relationships {structural and functional} across generations. Genograms provide a visual representation of family structures like family trees do, however, they also show intergenerational patterns of relationships, communication, connection / disconnection, quality of relationship, and significant life events of family members that influence families across generations.
Who uses genograms?
A genogram is a part of many professionals work. Medical professionals might use a genogram to highlight health patterns and problems across the family, intergenerationally. An addictions therapist might use a genogram to trace patterns of substance use and abuse. A therapist might use a genogram to trace any number of factors including things like emotional and behavioural patterns across the family system, through time. Social workers sometimes undertake genograms to capture the same things other therapists are interested in, but also to explore broader social factors that impact upon families ie. migration, economic stability and poverty, institutional involvement {ie. criminal justice, family court, adoptions, removal of children, hospitalizations, education, religion etc.} and systems of support accessed by family members {eco-mapping} and also to look at "family" {how family is conceptualized and socially constructed} more broadly when it is important and useful to do so.
It's also not uncommon for individuals to start working on their family geneology {family tree} and to begin to develop it more fully to include relational patterns and themes. In short, anyone who has an interest in assessing the overall background of a family might find undertaking a genogram to be a useful exercise.
Limitations of genograms
Firstly, a genogram is generally created through the viewpoint of an individual and as such, reflects their view of the family, family members and family dynamics. Other family members might see the genogram differently. They may know different things or emphasize different relationships, patterns or themes. Genograms sometimes change across time as family circumstances change, perspectives change and additional information becomes available. Sometimes genograms fail to capture the different views of family as expressed by different cultures – this comes down to the experience and understanding of the person undertaking the genogram, and their ability to create a 'living record' that best expresses the family as understood by the individual.
Benefits of using a genogram
From my perspective there are so many benefits to creating a genogram. I am sure that I will capture some and miss others. The benefits of creating a genogram may change across different clients and families – something that is of critical importance to one person, may be of less importance or interest to another. Here's some general advantages to using a genogram:
1. A genogram is a visual representation of a family – it provides a broad "birds eye" view of the family. A genogram can be very illuminating as it provides a great deal of information that is easily "seen" as opposed to writing a family history which may take many pages of text.
2. A genogram seeks a holistic overview of the family. As individuals we tend to emphasize certain relationships, patterns and themes and may easily miss or overlook others. We might not see aspects of relatedness that may be subtle {or not so subtle} yet exert a great deal of influence on the family. Most importantly, a genogram helps us to look at family as a "system".
3. A genogram facilitates the ability of individuals to see commonalities and uniqueness in family members. It can pinpoint emergent identity collisions and can be an excellent tool for identity development work.
4. A genogram helps explore connection and relatedness in an explicit and visual manner, not just between the individual and family members, but across the family system and intergenerationally. It provides relational context and a visual language to bring patterns of relatedness to light.
5. A genogram can assist individuals to explore communication patterns across the family. How do people in the family communicate? How is emotional intensity expressed? Who does the talking? Who is quiet or silent? What is being said? What goes unsaid? Is there a price for speaking about certain things? Who pays the price?
6. Genograms break down the isolation experienced by many people within their family system. Family problems are seen in a broader context and individuals are not scapegoated. Problems can be expressed as personal problems, inter-relational problems {between certain family members but not others}, family problems {appearing in many relationships across the family system}, intergenerational problems {appearing across the generations} and socio-economic/socio-political problems {problems which are "bigger than" individual family members or the family as a whole, but impact upon the family in significant ways.}
7. Genograms make emotional and behavioural patterns explicit across the family system {intergenerationally}. We have the opportunity to see the "trickle down" effect of many family and relationship problems. However, genograms don't just illuminate the things that are not working in a family system. Genograms also highlight family strengths, resilience, enduring bonds and positive ways of maintaining connection. Genograms can show us where a family is doing well. We can begin to see why people may behave as they have done, why we behave the way we have. We see the ripple effect of patterns and themes across the family.
8. Genograms help clarify options for movement and change. They help identify patterns and themes which are impacting upon individuals and often pinpoint areas for personal development and growth. Sometimes genograms provide great insight about what is likely to change and what is not.
9. Genograms facilitate alternate interpretations and "stories" of family experiences. This is very powerful when individuals are "trapped" in retelling a story over and over, without broader and more compassionate vantage points, for themselves and others.
10. Genograms can show how much we don't know about our families. A genogram can show missing people and relationships, highlight unknown or untold stories and histories and makes breaks in relatedness and connection more explicit. For people who are estranged, a genogram can be the first place where we really "see" just how many 'cutoffs" there have been across our family system.
11. Genograms allow for a visual representation of how families "come together" through marriage or other connections. They let us see commonalities and differences between our birth family and our family of choice and allow exploration of how we carry our family of origin experiences into other relationships. This lets us see the strengths and challenges that individuals bring into their relationships together, and express through our own parenting.
I'm sure there are a variety of other benefits to using genograms I haven't captured in this "off the top of my head" discussion of genograms. However, I think the 11 reasons above make it abundantly clear that genograms have a place in doing family and relational work.
There are certainly people who are resistant to undertaking a genogram and for whom the effort seems unnecessary or just not useful. Some people feel that they "know enough" about their family and are not interested in learning more. Some feel that to undertake a genogram may mean they will need to change their perspective or ways of thinking and feeling about their family. Some people worry that there is an expectation that they will need to understand or "forgive". Some people think undertaking a genogram is too much work, takes too long, or they simply aren't interested in their family members. Others quite simply aren't ready or willing to see the patterns or themes expressed across their family, and by themselves.
The short reason for doing a genogram for me as a therapist, is it provides very clear, concise information that allows me to understand a client's family in context. It helps me to see what is being focused upon, and what might be being overlooked. It lets me hear what's being talked about and what isn't. It shapes the therapeutic experience, and allows for more directed, compassionate and insightful interventions.

We only have cell phones. We only use adult sitters though (we don't have family in the area, and all of the kids in our sub are too young), so they all have their own cell phones. When my parents are in town and watch him, they have cell phones as well.
We do have friends that have a land line, because her parents do not have cell phones, so when they are in town visiting, they need to be able to call if there's an emergency.
Honestly, even if you do use a younger babysitter, they are still going to be in high school, and most teenagers have cell phones.
All that being said, if you feel more comfortable with a land line in the house for emergency purposes, then by all means get one. You can always get just the bare minimum plan so that it is truly an emergency use only phone.

Or you could get a prepaid phone and just leave it plugged in all the time so it's always charged and the sitter will always know where it is. Make sure the sitter knows it is not for personal use because the minutes will run out.
The other option is to get phone service through your computer like Vonage.
We have a land line. While cell service is usually fine at our house, in the event of an emergency, I'd rather have a land line. Cell calls to 911 don't always work for them to do GPS tracking, and if the sitter is the one in trouble, I'd rather that the EMT can get there without him/her telling them what is wrong (or having to rely on my 3yo for information).
We've talked about getting our land line number ported over to a 'house' cell phone because it would definitely be cheaper and then there would always be a phone at the house...but there is that emergency issue as well. I live far enough out of GR that there is only one tower covering my home area--it goes down, and so does our service. Plus, I personally hate talking on my cell phone (sound quality is always an issue), and would rather talk on a land line. With our service bundle from AT&T (land line and internet, soon will also include our cell service), we get free long-distance on our landline, so it's not like it really costs us that much more to have it.
Mama to Lulu (Oct 07) and Turtle (Sept 09)
We looked into this new Net Talk that has been advertised on TV. It's like Vonage, but you don't have to leave a computer running for it to work.
I kind of like the prepaid cell idea though too!

Recently I've been to some parts of eastern Cambodia. I have seen and learned about some developments negative to the future of our nation, and I have talked and continue to talk about them to fellow countrymen. I have suggested and continue to suggest strategies to neutralise or counter such developments. Some sage in the past said that a small and weak country should not ally itself with a bigger and more powerful country, especially when the latter is its nextdoor neighbour. One strategy to colonise other countries is called "oil drops on paper". Let's beware.

Easy Listening Audio Tapes for KidsPosted by admin
Aug 1
We live in a predominantly visual world. Television, the Internet and hand held devices offer an endless array of entertainment, ADT Home Security, information and even education. The effects are clear. Children have an increasingly shorter attention span, and have a hard time absorbing information. Most significantly, they don't need to use their imaginations as much. This is where listening comes in. Rather than letting your kids watch a video when you are on a road trip, how about getting a book on tape for them? The number of books available in an audio format is phenomenal. From traditional tales from all over the world to full length teen targeted novels, you can pick something everyone would enjoy. Folk tales are particularly appropriate to this media since they were always meant to be shared verbally. Let your children imagine sitting at the village fireplace in the evening, listening to the local storyteller as you drive along. Listening doesn't only have to be entertaining, it can be educational too. History really comes alive when you hear stories about world shaping events. Vocabulary improves rapidly, because you get to hear new words in context. Stories are a great way to learn about new cultures. The next time you and your children are heading out for a trip, stock up on audio-books and enjoy some time listening to the same stories. Even your teen-ager will have something to talk about at the next rest stop.

I had to make do with my immigrant mother's helping me piece out the headlines letter-by-letter in the Forvertz, the Yiddish paper that showed up in the mailbox every week. I can still hear her reading the tearjerkers in the advice column to my grandmother. (Even then I knew they weren't exactly great literature.)
If only I'd been given some Yiddish education, I might now be able to read Sholem Aleichem, the creator of the Tevye stories, as in "Fiddler on the Roof," in the original. Not to mention I.L. Peretz, the brothers Singer, and, well, a whole literature and therefore world. Yiddish may be a small, even diminutive, language, but there are those who love it.
Still, I'm grateful that, once I entered public school, it was conducted in English, including the tests. The monolingual may not believe it, but it seemed perfectly natural to switch from Yiddish at home to English in school and then go on to Hebrew School in the afternoons.
A child's sponge-like mind can do that. Kids in Spanish-speaking homes all over the country are probably changing languages just as naturally today whenever they walk in and out the door.
Rather than water down the tests, let's invest in intensive language training for the kids who are still struggling with English, whether they're Chinese in San Francisco, Cajun in South Louisiana, Portuguese in Boston -- or Hispanic in Arkansas.
Because they're all American, and one can scarcely be American without knowing English, or what passes for it on this side of the Atlantic -- whether the dialect being spoken is Maine Yankee or Arkinsaw Suthuhn.
What's the best approach to take toward kids without much English?
Well, I've been reading about a fifth-grader at the John Tyson Elementary School in Springdale, Ark. His literacy instructor, Therese Thompson, isn't about to wait the estimated two years it's going to take for the ESL establishment to come up with alternatives to the regular tests. She notes that the state's next standardized exams will be given in April. "We've got all of December, January, February and March to get him there," she says.
That's the spirit. What's needed is not non-English tests, or tests that use "simplified" English, but more Therese Thompsons.

The record
Gillibrand has said she is running her campaign based on the record of her freshman year in the House. When asked to identify the high points of her term, she immediately identified 2007's "Farm Bill," which she claims is "the best farm bill in the history of upstate New York." It offered support for dairy farmers and made grants available for organic farming.
She said she fulfilled a promise to run an open and receptive office, pointing to more than 50 "Congress on Your Corner" events she held around the district to directly interact with her constituency.
When asked what Treadwell would change about Gillibrand's office, campaign spokesman Peter Constantakes criticized Congress's recent bill to expand drilling for oil.
"The Congresswoman and her colleagues passed a sham drilling bill," he said. Treadwell would work toward a bill that allows greater access to offshore drilling, said Constantakes.
Dollars and sense
Whoever is selected to represent the 20th District in Washington will, like it or not, be part of the process to solve the ongoing fiscal crisis. Weeks ago, Gillibrand voted against both versions of a government bailout bill, citing a lack of oversight and regulation for the industry. Treadwell said that he would have done the same. As the problem has continued despite the bailout, the two have different ideas of how to act now.
Constantakes said that the problem would hopefully be addressed before his candidate reaches Congress but that several approaches have been examined.
"There are a lot of good ideas out there," he said. One would be a moratorium on earmarks, with the $20 billion distributed to the states, based on population, used to help close budget gaps.
Constantakes also said the Treadwell campaign believes a suspension of taxes on unemployment benefits should be considered " an idea supported by both presidential candidates " as well as doubling the personal tax exemption for middle class families to $7,000.

in response to captainKCFI have not analyzed your formula or tried to think of a better way to do what you want but I think you need to replace ISBLANK with ISERROR for it to work. If it does not find the name in one of the tables, the result is an error, not a blank.
jaxjason Mar 14, 2011 11:20 AM
in response to BadunitI also think replacing the IF's with IFERROR's would make the whole thing more readable.
=iferror(vlookup1,iferror(vlookup2,iferror(vlookup3,"Not found")))
captainKCF Mar 14, 2011 4:13 PM
in response to jaxjasonThanks for the quick response! That makes sense. So it partially worked too. I can now query a name from the first 3 worksheets, but if I query one from the 4th I get FALSE.
It appears that whatever query is in the "middle" gives the false. I added in one more worksheet, placed it as the last IF and now my 4 original work but the 5th wont.
Any ideas?
Thanks again!
Newest function:
=IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data E::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data F::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data G::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data H::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP($A3,HMS Data::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),VLOOKUP($A3,HMS Data::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data H::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data G::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data F::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE)),VLOOKUP($A3,Lincoln Data E::Student Grades :: $A$1:$I$26,COLUMN()+1,FALSE))

in response to captainKCFThe IFERROR idea would be cleaner and shorter I think.
But, to answer your question, starting in the middle of your formula you have
...IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(...HMS DATA...)), VLOOKUP(...HMS Data...),...
In other words, if the lookup is an error, you do the lookup again (which, of course, will be an error). This is where the FALSE result should be, not at the end of the formula.
...IF(ISERROR(VLOOKUP(...HMS DATA...)), FALSE, VLOOKUP(...HMS Data...),...
I recommend the cleaner and shorter IFERROR version posted by Jason. It requires half the lookups and is much easier to add onto.
captainKCF Mar 15, 2011 4:50 AM
in response to BadunitThanks! The IFERROR is much cleaner now. I am glad to understand why my original wasnt functioning on all cylinders.
Is this limited to 5 internal calls?
KOENIG Yvan Mar 15, 2011 6:12 AM
in response to captainKCFIt seems that there is a limit to the length of a formula.
I guess that it's linked to the size of the dedicated buffer receiving this one to parse it.
If I am right, using shorter table and sheet names may be efficient.
I guess that you don't rule teachers's grades so maybe you may replace "Students Grades" by "Grades"
In the names of sheets, I guess that you know that they are storing datas, so maybe you may remove this word.
You may also replace the ranges descriptors $A$1:$I$26 by the shorter ones $A:$I.

in response to jaxjason
Could someone please clarify Jason's forumula?
=iferror(vlookup1,iferror(vlookup2,iferror(vlookup3,"Not found")))
I tried to model after it, and it returns a syntax error.
Here is mine.
=IFERROR(VLOOKUPE2,'raw data—table123 6-27-13' :: Campus Id,IFERROR(VLOOKUPE2,raw data GR EAP—table124 :: $E$2:$E$3,IFERROR(VLOOKUPE2,'table125 intnl org 6-18-13' :: $D$2:$D$19,"Not found")))
E2 is the current table's cell used for matching.
Thanks in advance!
Jerrold Green1 Jul 1, 2013 2:46 PM
in response to Barry Fass-Holmes
I couldn't defend Jason's formula. It's a rather unconventional one.
What is it that you are trying to do?
Barry Fass-Holmes Jul 1, 2013 3:29 PM
in response to Jerrold Green1
Hi Jerry,
Thanks for your posting.
The goal is to match the value in a worksheet's cell E2 with the values in a specific column (ID) in three other worksheets in the same Numbers file.
Hope that clarifies.
Yellowbox Jul 1, 2013 7:59 PM
in response to Barry Fass-Holmes
Hi Barry,
I think Jason's formula contains some shorthand. VLOOKUP1 is not a function. I think Jason was implying that is the first VLOOKUP.
So, in your model, VLOOKUPE2 should be:
VLOOKUP(E2,<columns range>,<return column>,<close-match or exact-match>)
The Function Browser in Numbers
Barry Fass-Holmes Jul 2, 2013 9:38 AM
in response to Yellowbox
Hi Ian,
Many thanks for your post.
Yes, I understood that Jason's posting contained pseudocode.
Thanks for the helpful pointer to the Function Browser, which reminded me that I left out components in the formula.
An additional problem with my formula was that it needed a close parenthesis (set in red typeface below) after each of its components. Without those close parentheses (in addition to the three after "Not found,"), the formula returned an error.
The following revision worked properly. E2 is the cell value in the current worksheet to be matched with the three other worksheets that are in the same Numbers file.
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(E2,'raw data—table123 6-27-13' :: $G$2:$G$1204,1,0),IFERROR(VLOOKUP(E2,raw data GR EAP—table124 :: $E$2:$E$3,1,0),IFERROR(VLOOKUP(E2,'table125 intnl org 6-18-13' :: $D$2:$D$19,1,0),"Not found")))
Thanks again!
Yellowbox Jul 2, 2013 10:18 AM
in response to Barry Fass-Holmes
Hi Barry,
Thanks for the feedback. Oh, matching those parentheses! I prefer to break long formulas into small bites in separate Columns. That makes it easier to track the errors. Hide the intermediate Columns when it works.
I seem to recall that when using HyperTalk scripting in HyperCard, the editor refused to automatically indent a line in the script if there was an error. But that was a long time ago. 20/20 hindsight through rose-coloured glasses...

omg i'm using this right now! its right next to me! ha! lol.
anyways, i REALLY like this. a lot more than the plain burt's bees chapstick. it actually moisturizes (for a while at least) and i love the color. the color is not too dark but still noticeable, which i love. overrall, 4/5 lippies only cuz i wish it would moisturize for a longer time.
Age: 25-29

i am obsessed with this lip balm! i got the four pack (containing two minty ones, and one each of honey and pomegranate) from target for $10.00, making it a great value. the replenishing lip balm with pomegranate oil has a faint scent that is reminiscent of pomegranate but isn't quite as tangy and sharp as the fruit. it leaves my lips very soft and tinted faintly red. it's different from the usual minty tingle i get from burt's bees lipbalm. this is a definite re-buy for me.

Smells great and makes my lips so much softer. Tinted red which is great for my daytime look. Would purchase again.
Age: Unknown
Skin: Oily, Olive, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Black
This lip balm smells really good. I like it a lot, but wish it was the red color it is in the tube on your lips, since my lips have little pigment. I'd then give it a 5. There is a very tiny bit of color. My favorite remains the tingly Beeswax lip balm, will buy this forever. I need that tingle, It is pretty addictive. lol
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Other, Other
Eyes: Green
I'm not crazy about this lip balm. I find it kind of dries out my lips more than anything and it feels pretty waxy. It's not very cheap either. It does smell good, so I will use up my tube, but will not re-purchase.
Age: 25-29
Skin: Acne-prone, Dark, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Kinky, Coarse
Eyes: Brown
I love the way this product glides onto my lips. It leaves them feeling really smooth. It also gives off a tint of redness. The color does come off when something goes on my lips like spoon, a glass or whatever. For a chapstick, I guess its kind of pricey at $2.99 for a .15oz tube. Overall, I love it.
Age: 36-43
Skin: Very Oily, Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Black, Other, Other

Burt Bee's Replenishing with Pomegranate Oil
This lip balm goes on very smoothly and it is not drying on my lips. It has a very subtle reddish tint and shimmer. It looks very pretty and natural on the lips. My only gripe with this balm is the scent. I think it is awful. If this were unscented I might give it another chance.
Age: 19-24
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Straight, Medium
Eyes: Brown
My utmost favorite lip balm of all time.
The product smells slightly sweet and fruity, it's not an overwhelming kind of smell and I find that it eventually becomes unnoticeable. It leaves your lips feeling moisturized without being sticky or greasy or anything like that. It also has a slightly tint of color and this is my favorite feature because I tend to skip lip gloss and lipstick more often than not.
I suffer from dry lips so I use this every day to keep them soft and healthy.
Age: 30-35
Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Cool
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Fine
Eyes: Blue
love the texture and moisture - find the smell a little odd. my husband HATES the scent. (but whateva:) i also really like the tint of color. cheap price - does the job.
Age: 18 & Under
Skin: Normal, Fair, Not Sure
Hair: Brunette, Wavy, Medium

pretty much the same as the original without the menthol tingle. I like the smell :D. my mom hates it (for whatever reason)

text: This is such a great hotel- it is right across the street from the beach. The hotel arranges for your chair, towel, and umbrella. The roof bar and meditation garden are so great. Drawback is that bar closes at 6. We were there poetry month and poems are left on your pillow each night. The walls are filled with photos of writers and artists. The staff is great. Highly recommend

Yo Real Talk, Son....
Had a great time at the Chinese restaurant! But umm....it's time for DH and I to start taking DD to "upscale" restaurants. She's use to family type places like Longhorn, Chili's, Applebee's, Red Lobster......
This place was really really nice and this child asked the waiter for biscuits and butter. Lawd, I was so embarrased! And she ate her food like it was no tomorrow. And she asked what type of lemonades they had.....and she asked for a bigger cup for her green tea.....that she didn't drink.
Parents need to fill a child's bucket of self-esteem so high that the rest of the world can't poke enough holes to drain it dry.
Anybody wanna guess what I'm doing?
Yup...You guessed it...DRANKIN'!

Sanchez misses KO but gains respect
Updated: March 4, 2011, 9:13 PM ETBy Franklin McNeil | ESPN.com
LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- Diego Sanchez and Martin Kampmann promised to give everything they had Thursday night at the KFC Yum Center, and they stayed true to their words.
Sanchez and Kampmann put on a welterweight fight that MMA fans will be talking about for a long time. They threw caution to the wind and punched and kicked each other for a full 15 minutes. When the final bell rang, Sanchez's face was a bruised and bloody mess. But the look on his face didn't sway the judges against him in any ...

Mark Sanford on Free Trade
Republican SC Governor; previously Representative (SC-1)
States' commitments under CAFTA:
Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) compiled a list of the status of each of the 50 states with regards to CAFTA procurement. For states that have rescinded their commitment, we infer that the incumbent governor strongly opposes CAFTA (because the state made a commitment and then un-made it). For states that declined to commit, we infer that the incumbent governor somewhat opposes CAFTA. For states that committed, we infer that the incumbent governor supports CAFTA.
CAFTA is the Central American Free Trade Agreement. CAFTA expands NAFTA (the North American Free Trade Agreement, between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico) to five Central American nations (Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Costa Rica and Nicaragua), and the Dominican Republic. It passed Congress on July 27, 2005.
Opposition to CAFTA procurement rules (by Public Citizen): Should an international trade agreement determine how we are allowed to spend our domestic tax dollars? Prior to the passage of CAFTA, the majority of state governments agreed: Subjecting decisions about how to spend state taxpayer dollars to second-guessing by foreign trade tribunals is a bad idea! As a result, a bi-partisan group of governors withdrew their initial agreement to bind their states to comply with CAFTA's procurement rules. Many other governors simply avoided binding their states to CAFTA's procurement rules in the first place. Common state economic development and environmental policies are prohibited by trade agreement procurement rules include:

A DISCOUNT store has created 40 jobs at a North Lanarkshire retail park.
The posts will be based at Discount UK Home Store's new outlet at Airdrie Retail Park.
The store will offer over 8000 products including homewares and big-name branded groceries, cleaning items and toiletries.
Other departments will include pet care, stationery, baby and toys.
Chris Edwards Junior, trading director at the chain, said: "Airdrie is a great town and we're very pleased to be opening a new store here.
"Discount UK Home Store will help families who are seeking better deals and bigger savings to combat the rising cost of everyday living."
The Airdrie site is the chain's 40th store in the UK. It already has branches in Paisley and Kilmarnock.
The news came as fast food chain McDonald's announced the creation of 40 jobs in Glasgow as part of a nationwide commitment to bringing 2500 new positions across the UK by the end of 2013.
A total of 200 new posts will be created in Scotland as McDonald's increases its UK workforce, which currently stands at 91,000.
Last year, 70% of the new positions were given to people aged under 21. McDonald's says it has added more than 20,000 people to its workforce during the last five years as a result of its sustained business growth and long-term investment in recruitment and training.
Andy Gibson, who owns eight McDonald's restaurants around Glasgow, said: "In 2012 we added some fantastic crew from the local community to our team, many of whom were starting out in their first job.
"As a local employer, I believe it's important for all those who can, to continue giving young people in particular the chance to get workplace experience.
"I'm confident that in the year ahead there will be the same level of enthusiasm and talent from candidates in Glasgow, and I'm looking forward to employing even more young people in my restaurants."

I don't know if this will answer all of your questions....
I use the walgreens brand ovulation kit. You have to collect urine to test and you place a test strip in it. I usually collect the second time I go to the bathroom or first, I always get the same results. I've used this bran 2 times and I've gotten pregnant both times. I usually buy one after we had been trying for a few months. I get this brand because for the amount of money you get a lot of test strips. Hope this helps even a little :)
:) Wendy, Dawson James was born 9/29/11!! :)

I used wonfos and collect in a cup. I find them a little hard to read, honestly, so I have a box of CB, too. If wondfo looks like it might be pos. I check with CB. The little smiley face is so much more obvious, but they are pricey. I test 2x per day. I just get a positive yesterday. :) Good luck!

I use Wondfos. I ordered them from Amazon, and got 50 lh and 20 hcg strips for like 30 bucks. I mainly use them because I have strange cycles. Some 30 day, some 42 day. So its hard to know when I will ovulate. Towards the beginning CD 14 or so, I start testing once a day. I have a fade in pattern, so as it gets darker, I start testing twice a day.
I test in the morning even though they say not to... and its still worked for me. So when I do 2 a day, I do morning and evening.
I collect in a glass that I just keep in the bathroom for this purpose. I think they are easy to read.

Have you ever been so miserable at a job that you just stopped caring? It wouldn't be hard to imagine Lane Kiffin reaching that point right now: you got blown out by Denver in the season opener, and your owner is a senile old coot who probably smells of menthol and Old Spice and tried to get you to resign in the off-season.
Maybe he's already there. The SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE has Exhibit A: Kiffin washing his hands of the defense and their lack of blitzes (three all game) in their 41-14 bashing by the Broncos. According to Kiffin, the defense is handled by his coordinator Rob Ryan and walking corpse Al Davis, and he has little to no input in it:
"I'm not going to really get into, 'If I was the defensive coordinator, what would I do?' because that doesn't really matter," Kiffin said. "I'm the head coach, I oversee everything and I control what I can control."
Yeah, because why should the head coach be responsible for overseeing the entire team? If the Raiders want that, maybe they should hire a manager or something like they have in baseball.
If Kiffin is just focusing on the offense, that's not working either: they only had two garbage time TDs in the fourth quarter after they were already down 27-0. More likely, he spent the off-season doing what most people phoning in their job do: hours of games of Minesweeper on his computer, followed by the occasional scan of the Craigslist ads for "Head Coach Wanted: Experience Not An Issue" listings while staring out the window and crying.
Basically, Lane Kiffin has turned into a young, white version of Stanley from The Office. If you see him doing a crossword puzzle during the second half of this week's game, you'll know he's too far gone.

Between injuries and poor play at various positions, the Bears need people. At quarterback. At linebacker. Short-term, they hope, but no less critical, because if there is falloff, the season will be lost by the time Jay Cutler and Lance Briggs return from their injuries.
Three general methods of personnel improvement are available to the Bears, although the first one in particular is very unlikely.
Trade winds
The trading deadline was moved back this year but chances of the Bears availing themselves of that tactic are minute. Something obviously can always happen. And general manager Phil Emery has used trades in building the team to this point.
[RELATED: With 9 games to play, no time for Bears to feel down]
But Emery has myriad positions to address next offseason, already has had to pass up draft-day prospects because of being without 2012-13 third-rounders because of the Brandon Marshall trade. Mortgaging the future for a player another team didn't want, and presumably just for the balance of this season, is not a serious solution.
"Trades aren't dependent on injury perspective," Emery said. "Trades are dependent on getting correct value in the exchange. That's the most important thing — to not put your club in a position that you lose value while trying to gain a player.
"We've worked trades here the last couple of weeks, we just haven't found the correct combination of value and player exchange."
Street guys
The Bears are going this route for quarterback help with Jordan Palmer to back up Josh McCown. Palmer is not your typical street free agent, however.
"Based on what he did in the training camp and the preseason, No. 1 he became very [fluent] in our offensive language very quickly," said coach Marc Trestman. "He's very motivated on his own to get himself ready because we were getting ready for a season at the time we were getting ready to play the last preseason game. You know how that works. He impressed us. He was very efficient running the offense when he was in there on very short notice. So that's where we'll start. We feel good that he's available and we can bring him in to back up Josh."
[MORE: Briggs will miss at least six weeks with shoulder injury]
The New York Giants got something out of Peyton Hillis in their Monday night win over the Minnesota Vikings. Hillis scored on a short run but netted 36 yards on 18 carries and is not looked upon as a linchpin of any winning-caliber running game. If the Giants were looking for that, the Bears might have answered a call regarding availability of Michael Bush, who isn't being used at this point anyway.
And the reason why Hillis was in a uniform was because stop-gap Brandon Jacobs lasted exactly one game (against the Bears) before going inactive with a hamstring injury.
There is always a reason why certain players are not in helmets come this time of year. The Bears made a move bringing in defensive tackle Landon Cohen, who's made some plays, and Palmer is a natural fill behind McCown. McCown himself was a quality emergency addition once upon a time.
[ALSO: McCown: 'I'm heartbroken for Jay']
The Bears found Robbie Gould on the street but kickers are a different situation. And starting linebackers, defensive linemen or just about every other type of position player are not out of work at this point of a season.
Practice squad'ers
The Bears have found some help on other teams' practice squads, which offer players at least in some sort of current NFL shape. It may now be the best source of talent to help immediately.
Linebacker Nick Roach was on the San Diego practice squad in 2007 when the Bears found him. Defensive tackle Matt Toeaina was signed off the Cincinnati practice squad in 2007 and played immediately.
Linebacker Jerry Franklin was signed off the Dallas practice squad last December. Defensive end David Bass was ticketed for Oakland's practice squad prior to the start of this season. The Bears signed him to the 53-man roster where his playing time has been on the rise.

Evoke classic Hollywood glamour this festive season
BY Frankie Graddon | 22 December 2013
Photo: Rebecca Pierce
The look: Glossy finger waves with a statement brick red lip.
Make-up artist Angela Davis-Deacon prepared the skin by applying Clinique Turnaround Concentrate Radiance Renewer (£35, clinique.co.uk ) all over the model's face. This leave-on serum is perfect for dry skin as it gently exfoliates leaving it beautifully smooth. She then moisturised with Trilogy Ultra Hydrating Face Cream (£24.50, trilogyproducts.com ) which is suitable for sensitive skin.
Angela wanted a sheer cover foundation to let the natural skin texture show through so she blended Shu Uemura Face Architect mousse foundation (£34, shuuemura.co.uk ) over the face. This gave a naturally flawless finish. Blemishes were covered with Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer (£18.50, bobbibrown.co.uk ).
Angela created subtle luminosity by sweeping RMK Control Colour N 01 in silver (£25, beautybay.com ) over the cheek bones, bridge of the nose and cupids bow. For an extra glow try mixing a pea sized amount into your foundation. Angela then applied a thin layer of Lucas' Papaw Ointment (£5.25, pawpawshop.co.uk ) onto the top of the cheek bones taking it up to the outer edge of the eyebrow creating a crescent shaped highlight. This product can also be lightly dotted onto the eyelids for a pretty sheen.
Angela then swept Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Sheer Powder (£38, houseoffraser.co.uk ) under cheek bones to contour the face.
A sultry eye was created using MAC eye shadow in a fawn shade, we love Mystery and Cork ( maccosmetics.co.uk ). Starting at the inner corner of the eye Angela brushed the shade over the lid blending it to the outer corner. The eyelashes were kept mascara free, try curling then with Shiseido lash curlers (£18, houseoffraser.co.uk ) for some extra lift.
Angela finished the eye by brushing up the brows and setting with clear gel. We love Miss Sporty's Just Clear 101 mascara (£2.99, superdrug.com ) a great value product that can be found in many make-up artists' kits.
A dramatic lip was the finishing touch for the glamorous look. Angela used a matte brick red lipstick applying it all over the lip with a lip brush. She blotted the first layer with a tissue and then applied a second coat for an intense hit of colour. We love Bobbi Brown creamy lip colour in Raisin Berry 11 ( bobbibrown.co.uk )
Hair stylist Antonio de Luca styled the hair into retro finger wave curls for a timeless evening look. He started by spraying Bumble and Bumble thickening hairspray (£21.50, bumbleandbumble.co.uk ) onto damp roots and then applied Wella Professionals Perfect Setting Blow Dry Lotion (£7.50, lookfantastic.com ) to the ends before drying smooth with a hair dryer. He then created a low side parting and starting a few inches from the top of the head took thick sections of hair and wrapped it around medium barrelled heated tongs to create a kink. He repeated this down the length of the hair securing each wave with a long grip. We love Trevor Sorbie's rubberised sectioning clips from boots. A liberal spritz of hair spray set the style, try Wella Professionals Dymanic Fix (£12.25, lookfantastic.com ).
A deep red manicure exudes after dark glamour. We love Chanel Rouge Noir. File the nails into a natural oval, apply a layer of base coat then two of colour allowing each coat to try fully. Finish with a glossy topcoat.

Down, Not Out? Branch Count Shows Shift in Service Delivery
In the call to bring out your dead, don't be so quick to toss branches on top of the heap of abandoned projects.
"If you look purely at the number of credit union branches in operation, there has been a steady decline that is likely to continue into the future. This is being driven by an increase in the number of banking channels to which members have access, including online banking, mobile banking and peer-to-peer lending," said Michael Downs, vice president of marketing at Momentum, a design firm based in Seattle and Pittsburgh. "However, the branch is far from dead."
"As a member-owned cooperative, we believe we have an obligation to try new things to support our members' financial wellness," Sponem said. "We know that visual reminders of goals and engaging environments support commitment and stimulate new thinking and action. The inspiration branch helps to build cooperative value for all our members as they envision and realize their dreams."

Surgery Left Phil Collins Unable To Play The Drums
The 58-year-old musician was quoted by Hamburger Abendblatt on Monday as saying the only way he could drum is if he were to "glue drumsticks to my hands."
But that's not stopped his recording aspirations. He told the newspaper he plans a new CD that will feature covers of 30 songs from the Motown label in 2010.
"I want the songs to sound exactly like the originals," the paper quoted him as saying.
Collins, who lives in Switzerland, was in Hamburg to celebrate the first anniversary of the debut of "Tarzan" the musical. The show features music Collins composed for the 1999 animated Disney film, including the Oscar-winning song "You'll Be in My Heart."

The Human Resources Department has restructured its "compensation", "recruitment" and "staffing" functions to align them with the University departments they serve. In doing so, we have created teams of Human Resources Generalists that in addition to being responsible for filling positions, serve as the "point of contact" for Schools/Colleges and administrative staff on all HR related matters. This model enables the HR Generalist teams to better understand the operations, needs and concerns of their client departments and supports a partnership between the two units.
Each team has a Director or Senior HR Generalist overseeing all Human Resources functions for their assigned areas. By utilizing a "team" concept, you will be able to get information from any team member if your HR Generalist is not available. We have provided a complete listing below of the HR Generalists along with a short "bio" explaining their areas of expertise:
Karen Ward, SPHR, Assistant Vice President, 215-204-3317
Karen is responsible for all of the HR Generalists and the Offices of the President, Provost and Sr. Vice President Financial Administration.
Michael Robinson, Director - Community Outreach, 215-204-0677
Michael manages employment outreach and job readiness training for community residents.
