Saving builds a foundation. The first step in investing is to secure a strong financial foundation.
Start with these basic steps:
- Create a "rainy day" reserve: Set aside enough cash to get you through an unexpected period of illness or unemployment-three to six months' worth of living expenses is generally recommended. Because you may need to use these funds unexpectedly, you'll generally want to put the cash in a low-risk, liquid investment.
- Pay off your debts: it may make more sense to pay off high-interest-rate debt before making investments that may have a lower or more uncertain return.
- Get insured: One of the best protections against financial loss is having adequate insurance. Review your home, auto, health, disability, life and other policies and increase your coverage if needed.
Setting goals is an important part of financial planning. Before you invest your money, you should spend some time considering and setting your personal goals. For example, do you want to retire early? Would you like to start your own business soon? Do you need to pay for a child's college education" Would you like to buy or build a new house? In addition to these, there are several other considerations that can help you and your financial professional develop an appropriate plan. Contact us today and we'll help you get started or help you review your current investment strategy.

text: Gr 2-4--Fueled by interest from the film, children will appreciate this biography by the daughter of the famous African American baseball player. Readers will immediately understand the significance of how a young black ballplayer broke the racial barrier and helped desegregate Major League Baseball. Because of the author's careful delineation of the restraint Robinson needed to maintain his composure, children will understand and have empathy for this player who was yelled at from the stands yet persevered and played on with determination, becoming an American hero. Rather than focusing on a single episode in Robinson's life as in Testing the Ice (Scholastic, 2009), the author gives a brief overview from childhood, to marriage, to death while showcasing myriad black-and-white family photos. This book can prompt discussions whenever bullying topics are introduced. It is worth replacing older biographies with a fresher look.--Blair Christolon, Prince William Public Library System, Manassas, VA[Page 107]. (c) Copyright 2013.

The Republican-led House has given its final support to a $21 billion spending plan for North Carolina government that once again garnered several Democratic "yes" votes.
Seven Democrats joined all but one Republican voting 77-35 on Friday for the budget adjustments starting July 1. A similar outcome occurred Thursday when the plan received preliminary approval.
The measure now returns to the Senate, which approved its own plan and is sure to reject the House version, setting up negotiations. The two chambers will craft a final budget for Gov. Pat McCrory.
The House plan raises teacher salaries by 5 percent on average. Rep. Tricia Cotham of Matthews is a Democrat who voted for the plan. She says the budget isn't perfect but teacher pay increases are very important to her.

There is a local railway station just opposite to the Airport ( Walking Distance)..From there you may board a local train (of which service is very good ie. every few minutes) to Nungambakkam Station..The fare is Rs 5..Once you reach Nungambakkam Rly station you may walk to the Institute (10-15 min Walking Distance) or may opt for shared Autos..
PS : I am a fellow aspirant..This is how I reached IFMR when I visited the campus.
How to reach the campus from the Chennai Airport ?
mrvsmanian SaysBy when should we submit the personal deails form ? And wat is the format for the fitness certificate.. Pls help..
Anyone from pune joining IFMR ?
Expect the result on 18th May .All the results in this year(also many times in past few years) have been declared on 18th of the respective month.
I saw the details of 'Seminar on INR/USD Exchange Rate' on IFMR website.
So are these seminars free for the IFMR students.
kriti1d SaysMail your DD details to the management and send them a self addressed envelope now
What Nishant wants to say is that-
According to the Director Sir, a separate placement process(only for FS students) will be conducted for FS just like the Retail Mgmt course.So in any case whatsoever,the FS students will not be allowed to sit with the PGDM students.
He also mentioned that if the company specifically wants F.S. students along with the PGDM students(which may be a very rare case),only then F.S. students will be allowed to sit with the PGDM students.
So,I fear that the average package of FS might just be around 4-5 lakhs, just like the RM students.
Earlier, before the last date of form filling,it was said that-
"The FS students will sit with the PGDM, IB and MMS students for the placements".
This was the fact that really propelled us to go ahead and fill the form.
Obviously from this statement one can easily infer that one would not be allowed to sit for the marketing & operations profiles.But it also infers that we would be allowed to sit for all the companies that offer the finance profiles.
But now this statement, which was the sole base for many of us filling the form, is being denied by the Director and being defended by you.
Now,in layman terms what you to say is that-
1. Except the companies needing only PGDM or IB or MMS students,
2. Except the companies coming for roles of marketing,operations,etc.
"During the placements, the FS students will be allowed to sit with the PGDM students for all the finance profiles offered."
So,kindly confirm the above statement and clear the air.
Also,please mention the above statement on the website so that it can be easily believed. Please help us in taking the right decision.
PGDM-FS placements will NOT be conducted alongwith with flagship Programs PGDM & PGDM-IB. It will be a seperate procedure. However, if a company comes with a requirement of PGDM-FS students alongwith students of flagship programs, then PGDM-FS students will be allowed to sit in PGDM placements.
Has anyone applied for credila loan?

Ethiopia's stone carrying donkeys
Once overloaded, overworked and underfed, a new Brooke project is bringing welcome welfare changes to Hossana's construction donkeys
Working towards better wound management and feeding
Construction is becoming big business in Ethiopia, especially in the country's growing cities like Hossana, where the Brooke's southern office is located.
Newly built apartments, government buildings and shopping centres are increasingly common. Many are built using local stone brought in by donkeys from a quarry in Ajjo village, some 4km away.
For years, life for many of these stone carrying animals was hard. Often over-loaded, they were underfed and under watered. If they became sick or wounded they were often left to fend for themselves. No surprise then, that their work-life expectancy could be just two years.
But without their donkeys, owners cannot make the 40-60 birr (US$2-$4) a day per animal, needed to feed their families.
"Having understood the significance of donkeys to families and the poor welfare of many animals, the Brooke started to provide training in wound management and feeding to owners of around 1000 working equines in and around Hossana," says community development officer, Mulugeta Mekonnen.
Aklilu Menberu is just one person who has benefitted from this approach. His customers include contractors, house builders and cemetery stone masons.
He has 4 donkeys named Bulla, Tsyem, and Merkeb. The forth one is not yet named since it has recently joined the group. He earns about 60-100 birr (US$4-$6) a day, enough to support his family of eight.
"Before the Brooke, we used to load 6-7 times a day, 3-5 km for each round which approximately 18-30km travelling per day, carrying 50-60kg of stone."
"There was no tradition of feeding or watering them during the day, they were just put out on overgrazed pasture at dusk, where they were exposed to hyena bites.
Changed behaviour:
"But these are all history now. We have learned how to treat wounds with water, salt and Vaseline which are available locally. We also use saddles that help prevent wounds and feed the donkeys properly with wheat bran treated with edible oil."
Aklilu said they had learned to cultivate different forage seeds just for donkeys and understood the symptoms for common ailments.
"Now, we know the symptoms before they get sick, we treat them well and give them the rest they need," he said.
"As I have four donkeys, I can give the working donkey a rest and use the others. Previously, I have never used a working donkey for more than a year. But now, I have my donkeys for more than 3-4 years."

All this week, Film School Rejects presents a daily dose of our favorite articles from the archive. Originally published in September 2011, Ashe Cantrell pulls back the curtain on the Hollywood conspiracy machine…
You may already be a film industry cynic. Maybe you think Hollywood is a barren wasteland, devoid of creativity and originality. Maybe you're sick of seeing talented people get ignored and vapid hacks get splashed all over the trades. Maybe you're tired of 3D everything and having to re-buy your movies every five to ten years.
I'm not here to dissuade you of any of that. Hell no, I'm here to make it worse. Get ready, because this is some of the rottenest shit of which the film industry is capable. These are the things so terrible that Hollywood has to cover them up, lest God see their sin and smite them accordingly (and keep various government entities and lawyers off their backs, of course). If you still had any kind thoughts toward Hollywood, I suggest you prepare yourself for crushing disappointment.
But first, I'd like to give a very huge shout out and thank you to writers C. Coville and Maxwell Yezpitelok for their help on this article. You guys are great!
And now back to the shit storm, already in progress:
6. Tricky Hollywood Accounting
Here's a basic example of Hollywood Accounting: A studio makes a movie. The studio distributes the movie itself, and although the distributor is technically a separate company, they both belong to the same parent company. Also, the distribution arm sets whatever fees it wants. If they want to charge themselves eleventy quintillion dollars for distribution, they totally can. Then, even if the film earns billions of dollars in box office receipts, they're still technically in debt (to themselves) and thus haven't turned a profit.
Sound ridiculous? It happens all the freaking time. David Prowse, the guy who was in the Darth Vader costume in the original trilogy of Star Wars (before being ousted by that douche Hayden Christensen in the special edition) has never been paid for Return of the Jedi because it hasn't turned a profit after nearly 30 years. That's after dozens of home video and theatrical re-releases. (All the merchandising money goes to Lucas directly, of course.)
Similarly, someone leaked Warner Bros.' accounting sheet for Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix onto the internet, showing that the film that had grossed about $1 billion worldwide had lost $167 million on paper.
Winston Groom, the writer of Forrest Gump was told that the film based on his work wasn't profitable. Of course, he got the last laugh when they came to him asking if they could turn the sequel, Gump and Co. into a film as well, and he reportedly told them, "I cannot, in good conscience, allow money to be wasted on a failure." In other words, "Go fuck yourself."
And then there's Art Buchwald, whose spec script got stolen by Paramount (remember that, it's going to come up later), and got turned into Coming to America. When he took them to court and sued for a percentage of the profit, Paramount was totally cool with it, because according to their books, it hadn't made any kind of profit, so they didn't owe him one red fucking cent. The judge later ruled that it was "unconscionable" for Paramount not to pay Buchwald something in a settlement. Otherwise, he'd have to ask Paramount to open their books for the courts to review. Paramount quickly backed down and settled with Buchwald instead.

Date Published: February 28, 2014
"Everyone has heard of the 'Clemson Family,' and I like to describe the Honors community as my immediate family within that larger group. My best friends, most influential mentors, and advisers are all in Honors."
Ross Beppler, a senior electrical engineering major from Johns Creek, GA, has made the most of his Honors experience at Clemson. He currently serves as an Honors Ambassador for the college, and shares his experiences with prospective students as a way to give back to the organization that has afforded him so many experiences. Ross traveled to Nicaragua during winter of 2011 with Engineers Without Borders leading a project to add a building to an existing school.
As Vice President of the Blue Key Honor Society, Ross aids in organizing campus events such as "Tigerama," a student-run pep rally, as well as "The Pursuit," an Amazing Race-style fundraiser supporting the Student Emergency Fund. Outside of his academic and Honors commitments, Ross volunteers as a soccer coach at the local YMCA and with the City of Clemson. For him this is a way to unwind from his studies while giving back to the Clemson community.
Most notably Ross completed research with Dr. Leidy Klotz on topics including engineer decision-making and sustainability. He will conclude his collegiate career with a Departmental Honors research project with Dr. Elham Makram on transmission planning. Upon graduation, Ross will pursue either a career or graduate degree in engineering public policy.
Advice: I realized is that it's much more important to find things that are meaningful and enjoyable and give 100% to those endeavors. Building relationships is just as important as building a resume.

I have had a problem! The last two years something strips all the leaves and new shoots off my plants. Roses are dead now and it is now happening to my Dahlia`s even thou all the old plants have been dug up and soil tilled with new bark chips put on top? Whatever it is loves the roses new shoots very much. I can not see any bugs thou and have tried ant and slug pellets /powder.Even sprays! Can someone help before my new Dahlia tubers come!
I'm not clear - is this something that's happening now or did it happen a while back?
It sounds as if it might have been sawfly damage on the roses.
Please explain more about your dahlias - you say they're being eaten although you've dug them up
It is happening now and the past.Not just roses but Dahlia`s and clematis climbers.
After the roses got stripped this summer the area was dug up and turned over to prepare new bed. I planted a new Dahlia and the leaves are almost gone now again.The roses at first looked like something was eating the leaves but as a new bud came out that also was eaten. Even the old leaves eventually.
Slugs and snails will eat dahlias, but we've had several frost now so dahlia foliage will be dieing down anyway.
Just a thought - whereabouts in Mid Suffolk are you? Any chance there are any deer getting into your garden?
In Bramford,just outside Ipswich but no deer. The last Dahlia that is going has only been caught by the frost yesterday and the leaves have been eaten before this. Just the leaves not the stems or anything else. Have tried everything.slug pellets.salt,ant powder, rose spray, malathian spray. What ever it is seems invincible to everything I have tried. First the new leaves then the older ones and in the mean time any new buds and finally there is nothing left except stalks? Then death... Mystery
I was wondering if you have earwigs, I've had a big problem with them over the past couple of years in the garden and the greenhouse. They're difficult to spot and they're good at hiding. They do strip off a lot of the leaves and petals. Look out for them, they're an absolute nuisance. Good luck.
Is there any defined shape to the 'nibbling'? What does a half-eaten leaf look like?
I am sure I can show everyone plenty of eaten leaves! I have heard about earwigs? Never thought they would do that to a garden thou? Anyone know if there is a way to get ride of them. I want my garden to look nice for my wife who loves roses and dahlia`s but they have to have leaves!
Photos of the damage might help narrow down the culprits
Click on the little tree icon on the toolbar above where you type your post, and follow the instructions to upload an image from your pc.
Might be worth trying something specifically for earwigs. I tried a powder, sprayed on the leaves, it worked well, it was brilliant to see the new leaves forming. Not sure about this time of year though, I don't know whether they hide in the winter.
When digging up some potatoes today, I found an earwig about 4 inches down in the soil in a little 'pocket' it had made for itself. I assume t was a female overwintering, ready to lay it's eggs in the Spring.
Think I will try some for earwigs. Didnt really think they ate leaves? Oh well must get the buggers.
For next year try earwig traps....e.g. Plastic cup stuffed with paper upside down on a cane. They hide in there. Earwigs prob worst pest of dahlias and their flowers
Ok thanks Verdum. Will try that and also get some killer if I can. Have ordered about 12 from Thompson and Morgan for a special bed I am making and dont want the buggers to eat them all!
I found earwigs on my buddleia leaves, eaten completely, pot of strawberries, in the greenhouse, on my apples, especially where two apples are very close together. Oh, you name it they've been there. As I said, I used a powder puffed on the plants, it made a big difference.
Maggie Can you remember what powder it was? Not sure if our local B & Q would have too much but we do have a garden center,good one, in Needham Market.
Hi Mark, I used something by Doff, I found it in my father-in-laws shed, don't know how old it was but it worked. It was labelled Ant Killer, also for cockroaches, earwigs and all crawling insects. I'm sure that there are a lot of products out there that will do the job. My only concern would be if it was to be used on anything that you might want to eat. I can't believe how far ranging those darn things were, they seemed to jump out from anywhere!
Yea tell me about it. Literally ate all my rose plants in the back garden last year so got to find something to stop them. Killed beautiful big rose bushes completely.
Provado ultimate bug killer will work on earwigs or any systemic pest killer. Wouldn't bother now though. Hmmmmm! Not too happy dusting with powder though.
Not sure about powder. Got 6 cats and they may get into it? Will try provado once spring comes.

I made this map more because I needed to get the idea out of my head but I started it and I liked it. I had the idea to make a map out of actual Japanese kanji.
Every icon is the kanji symbol for what it is representing. The mountains are the kanji for mountain the hills are kanji for hills etc. The landmass is based off of the kanji for island, even the way the other kanji icons are placed they outline the island kanji.
The only kanji that I really had to mess with was the kanji for river, but I think it turned out okay.
I still need to label everything and I might do a few more things.

thank you, i find she needs to eat ever 2 hours and at 11 and 4 i give her baby food. The last time we visited with our doctor she already was 20 pounds. I just hope im doing the right things. I hope im not over feeding her :sposted 11/03/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
My son stopped nighttime feedings around 6 months, but breastfed pretty often during the day - similar to how you're describing. It's tricky with breastfeeding because you're never sure exactly how much they're getting, but it's also extremely uncommon for a breastfed baby to overeat. As long as you're feeding on demand and not force feeding, and your baby's weight gain is appropriate you're doing fine.posted 11/02/2012 by neneface

Kottaras, 30, played in 46 games for the Royals last season, making 29 starts behind the plate. The left-handed hitting catcher batted .180 with five homers and 12 RBI. He also drew 24 walks, which led the Major Leagues among players with 150 or fewer plate appearances. His .349 on-base percentage ranked sixth among American League backstops that played at least 40 games.
Royals add Jason Vargas to 40-man roster, designate George Kottaras for assignment
The Royals announced have added left-handed pitcher Jason Vargas to the 40-man roster. To clear a spot on the Major League 40-man roster, the Royals have designated catcher George Kottaras for assignment. Kottaras was KC's backup catcher in 2013. He recorded five home runs and 12 RBI in 46 games.
Royals claim catcher George Kottaras on outright waivers from Oakland

Bucking the insistence of judges to "sing younger," Connecticut's Katie Stevens, as part of the Top 12 this week on "American Idol" was saddled with a Rolling Stones theme night.
"I have no other choice but to be old," the 17-year-old from Middlebury told host Ryan Seacrest.
But she took on one of the most durable of Stones ballads, "Wild Horses," and got universal praise from judges for her performance on a crucial week.
Randy Jackson admitted they had given her a lot of "misdirection" and conflicting advice in past weeks, but admired the song choice. "I thought you sang that really well," he said. "I thought it was a very strong performance."
Ellen DeGeneres said it started pitchy but once she got into it, "you sounded amazing. And what a great song. Good choice."
Kara DioGuardi said "it's never technically perfect with you" but added that "where you were going was the right direction and that shows your talent." She also said it was better than her performance last week.
Cowell said, "I would say this is the only week where you've actually chosen a really strong song. That was a very, very clever choice. I recorded that song with Susan Boyle, so I know that song really well. I didn't like the second half of the song because I thought you lost the emotion. But this is the first time where you've connectied with a song and more importantly, you made a difference, you gave it 100 percent. So well done."
It was a night where each of the Top 12 told their stories of growing up and Stevens described Middlebury as "a very small town in Connecticut where there's not a lot to do. It's not a city but I loved growing up in Middlebury."
Her mother said she was a happy child growing up and "she was a ham - she wasn't shy. She'd dress up and dance around the house." And she played a tape of Katie and her brother singing "From This Moment" at a wedding when she was just 8. It embarrassed her: "Oh my god mom, I couldn't even stay in pitch," she said.
Of her "American Idol" experience, she said, "This is something so huge. Hopefully it will put Connecticut on the map."
In her interview with Seacrest before her performance, Stevens said she chose "Wild Horses" because "the lyrics really spoke to me in this moment: This is my time and this is what I really want to do. Wild horses couldn't take me away."
It certainly fit the situation when she began: "Childhood living is easy to do..."

Would of returned but the expense of postage and return cost didn't seem worth it Lucy Lilybet's response: I am so sorry that your bag was faulty. We did have a couple of bags that had patchy faults in the fabric and I thought that we had discarded all of these - it looks as if this bag slipped through unnoticed. As the bag was faulty , we would of course have refunded you for any extra postage charges to send it back to us. Once again, I hope you will accept our sincere apologies for this error on our part.

When I'm working with clients, I always get asked about the META tags we see on websites.
META tags are a way of search engines understanding the content of a page and act as brief notes to sum up what the page is actually about. This is also prime real estate for keywords so when adding text, do some research and find the best keywords to add. There can be some large differences in two similar keywords so experiment.
The 3 META's
- 1-2 short and snappy sentences to summarise the page. If you were to tell someone about this page, what would you say? Add it in here,
- This is the snippet you see on Google >
- Again a sort and snappy title similar to the introduction. As in the above image, this needs to be the main title of the page BUT don't forget to target some keywords.
- Google don't really use this section of the META data. In the early days of the web they did but now, there are more valuable ways of evaluating the content of a page (see this video). So my recommendation would be, add the top 5 keywords of your page and leave it there. You might as well make the most of your opportunities in SEO but the focus should always be on top quality content.
FACT: Do Not Stuff Keywords. Search Engines penalise this so keep it relevant. Less is more and so is quality so keep it short and to the point.
So don't forget META data. Now focus on creating quality website content on-page.

Samsung Isocell technology promises better image quality from mobile device sensors
Theano Nikitas | Published: Sep 25, 2013 at 17:56 UTC9
Samsung recently revealed information about its new Isocell technology, which is designed to deliver better image quality from CMOS sensors despite the physical constraints of mobile device sensor size. As evidence of the need for technology to counteract small sensors with higher resolution, Samsung cites market research firm Techno System Research's findings that about 66 percent of smartphones produced in 2014 will be equipped with 8 megapixel or higher sensors.
According to Samsung, Isocell technology creates a physical barrier "between neighboring pixels," which enables each photodiode to absorb additional photons and, at the same time, minimizes electrical crosstalk between pixels. Samsung estimates that Isocell technology decreases this crosstalk by about 30 percent compared to BSI (back side illuminated) sensors. The end result is said to deliver more accurate color rendition and sharper images, particularly when captured under low light conditions, as well as broader dynamic range.
And, finally, with Isocell's estimated 20 percent wider chief ray angle (CRA) camera module sizes can be kept small enough to fit within slender mobile device designs.
Samsung's first Isocell imager — the S5K4H5YB 8-megapixel sensor — is scheduled for mass production in Q4 2013, so it's likely we'll see how this new technology performs before the end of the year or early in 2014.

The food giant is considering applying the umbrella name to low-carb versions of some of its flagship products, such as Baked Beanz, Ketchup, Salad Cream and its ready meals.
Heinz has registered the Carb Check brand for use in the UK, although a Heinz spokeswoman declined to say how it would be used.
The initiative follows Heinz's launch of One Carb Ketchup - a low-carb version of the original product - in the US last year, which was created in response to growing demand for low-carb products.

U.S. oil glut stirs up political dilemma
Industry says export ban dating to 1975 no longer makes senseJanuary 4, 2014

WASHINGTON - As a new year dawns in the nation's capital, the Obama administration and Congress find themselves grappling with a scenario that was unthinkable just a few years ago: What to do with the domestic oil flowing out of West Texas, North Dakota and other states?

In contrast, MASC can photograph and measure tens of thousands of snowflakes in a single night, Garrett said. Already, two MASC cameras in use at the Alta Ski Area are generating results that suggests wind and snow interact differently than weather models predict.
Garrett and Cale Fallgatter have formed a spin-off company to sell MASCs to interested parties. Fallgatter Technologies, officially spun-off six months ago, has already sold a camera to the U.S. Army, which is using it to improve avalanche prediction.
Besides being useful, the camera is also just plain fun to use. "It's very exciting to be able to look at the snowflakes every day as they're falling. I saw some fog up in the mountains, and wondered what kind of snowflakes this fog would produce," Garrett said.
Then he logged on to Alta's live feed and found out. While that day the snow was producing very regular, six-sided snowflakes, "the range is tremendous," he said. "When people say no two snowflakes are alike, that is very true. They are dissimilar in ways that I did not imagine prior to starting this project. The range of possibilities is immense."

When the Political Is the Personal
Jim Burroway
March 25th, 2013
Those of us who have been out for a very long time can sometimes forget what a daunting chore coming out can be. Sen. Rob Portman's (R-OH) son, Will Portman, was eighteen years old and a freshman at Yale when he decided to come out to everyone. The biggest chore was to his parents, then he went down a checklist of friends and relatives, some of whom he came out to in person, others via letter, email, phone call or Skype. And to add to that, imagine the pressure of being eighteen and having the emotional difficulties of having your coming out wrapped up in national politics:
I started talking to my dad more about being gay. Through the process of my coming out, we'd had a tacit understanding that he was my dad first and my senator a distant second. Eventually, though, we began talking about the policy issues surrounding marriage for same-sex couples.
The following summer, the summer of 2012, my dad was under consideration to be Gov. Romney's running mate. The rest of my family and I had given him the go-ahead to enter the vetting process. My dad told the Romney campaign that I was gay, that he and my mom were supportive and proud of their son, and that we'd be open about it on the campaign trail.
When he ultimately wasn't chosen for the ticket, I was pretty relieved to have avoided the spotlight of a presidential campaign. Some people have criticized my dad for waiting for two years after I came out to him before he endorsed marriage for gay couples. Part of the reason for that is that it took time for him to think through the issue more deeply after the impetus of my coming out. But another factor was my reluctance to make my personal life public.
Now that Will Portman is twenty and a junior, most of that reluctance appears to have melted away, if this essay in the Yale Daily News is any indication. Will is rightly proud of his father for handling his coming out the way he did. It can be complicated for any young man to navigate, and given the larger picture it seems to me that father and son handled it pretty well. "It has been strange to have my personal life in the headlines," Will writes, of which we can only imagine. I wonder how many other nineteen year old sons of U.S. Senators would be able to go through all this pressure.
As for how that impacted the Romney campaign's decision not to go with Portman for the number two slot and carry with it the key swing state of the election, that story hasn't been told. But every campaign has its Primary Colors and Game Change, and its only a matter of time before this story gets written as well.

Today marks the first day of World Breastfeeding Week, and National Breastfeeding Month. This month means a lot to me, as I've devoted every day of the last 26 months to breastfeeding. Not a single day has gone by that I haven't nursed my children.
It's hard work, and every day that passes feels like a huge achievement. It is an achievement, and I'm proud of myself.
I talk about breastfeeding a lot. I can't help it. It's one of the things that takes up a huge amount of my day. I chose to breastfeed my toddler as long as I have. I chose to tandem feed my toddler and my infant. These are my family's choices, and I'm happy with them. Let me repeat: These are my family's choices. I don't judge what others do, nor would I. I'm not part of their family.
It's sad that mothers feel the need to justify their choices in the matter of breastfeeding. Yes, in an ideal world, we moms would all breastfeed our babies to the recommended guidelines, we'd all have great supply, great support, and whatever else is necessary for moms to do so. This is not the world we live in. Some moms can't make enough to feed their babies, many moms have to work full-time, some moms have health issues that prevent them from breastfeeding, some moms find it difficult to keep on nursing through the pain of bad latches, teeth, thrush, and anything else.
Moms, it's okay! Stop justifying these reasons to the world. You did your best, and you should be proud to have a thriving little one, no matter how they got there.
So here's to the moms that nurse their babies, and to the moms and dads that cuddle their babies and give them bottles.
Here's to the moms and dads that sacrifice their sleep to feed, and rock, and love their babies in the night.
Here's to the moms that pump tirelessly to feed their little ones.
Here's to the moms that fought through the pain, because even pain can happen when you're doing everything right.
Here's to dads and partners that support their baby's mother in her decisions.
Here's to the moms that donate their milk so that other babies, who would otherwise not have milk, thrive.
Here's to the moms that put aside their pride when things just weren't working and gave their babies donated milk or formula instead.
Here's to the moms that don't feel guilty about their choices, and feel their confidence building at every smile their baby gives them.
Here's to the moms that tried, whether for a day, a week, a month, a year, or beyond.
Here's to you, moms and dads. Your baby thanks you for loving them enough to do all of the things that you do for them every day.

Earlier this week I posted a video of tennis great Roger Federer knocking a soda can off a guy's head with a tennis ball. I thought he could have knocked out the guy's eye with that serve, but he didn't, and the video, filmed at a shoot for a Gillette commercial, went viral, getting more than 1 million hits in 48 hours, according to a Reuters report.
Now, it seems that Roger's stunt was just that -- a stunt.
After his opening match at the Cincinnati Masters last night, he was asked directly whether the video is real.
"Not saying that," was his reply. Then he added, "A magician doesn't tell how his tricks work."
I'm sure Gillette doesn't mind the publicity. But Henry Blodget of Business Insider says he's buying a Schick next time.

DUI Checkpoints for Los Angeles and the greater surrounding area.
Extra Avoid the 100 DUI patrols will be dispatched across Los Angeles County.

People frequently ask me, "Kajon WTF? Why do you post the locations of DUI checkpoints?"
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that when well-publicized sobriety checkpoints were conducted, alcohol-related crashes and fatalities decreased by more than 20 percent.
"Sobriety checkpoints are one of the most critical tools available for law enforcement to deter drunk driving," said Mary Klotzbach, public policy liaison for MADD California Klotzbach states,
"Sobriety checkpoints send a message that if a motorist chooses to drive drunk, he or she will get caught."
A 20% decrease in crashes and fatalities is a number too high to ignore and my goal is help, not hurt. Here is the link to a post where this very question has been explored extensively. http://blogs.kcrw.com/shortcuts/should-dui-checkp…
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), checkpoints have provided the most effective documented results of any of the DUI enforcement strategies, while also yielding considerable cost savings of $6 for every $1 spent.

Bioresonance is one of the oldest electric treatment modalities, developed almost 50 years ago in Germany. One of the main premises of Bioresonance technology that has not changed since its beginnings is that there are harmful frequencies in the body that can be neutralized by measuring them and feeding their inversed form back to the body... neutralized by measuring them and feeding their inversed form back to the body... Just like today Noise-reduction headphones work.
However this unquestioned assumption has many defects. First nobody has ever seen or shown reproducibly electric frequencies, even with the most sensitive oscilloscopes. Manufacturers usually explain this by saying that these electric vibrations are too subtle and are immersed in the electric noise that is in our environment... WE ask: How is it possible that they can work with something that they cannot even measure?
Second the very basis of simply inversing naturally occurring frequencies, if they exist at all, is highly questionable, as this is the idea of allopathic medicine, as their philosophy is about inversing. Inversion of high temperature, high blood pressure, acidic stomach terrain and so on... And we all know it does more harm than help. However we have to realize that the philosophy of bioresonace comes from that time in which allopathic thinking was at its height, so inverting frequencies just was making sense.
Many bioresonance treatments however have good results which we understand at Inergetix as the known beneficial effect of electric frequency therapy in general. Inergetix went one step further and developed an informational process of measuring reproducibly resonant frequencies and also supplies the electronic means to feedback any waveform and frequency that is most suitable in real-time, with its Arbitrary Wave Generator.

Mayor Bloomberg Recognizes 10 Starchitect-Designed City Projects That Change NYC for the Better
Posted By Lori Zimmer On July 31, 2012 @ 11:55 am In Architecture | No Comments
Earlier this week, NYC's Design Commission Awards for Excellence recognized [3] some of the most innovative city-commissioned projects that are changing the face of the 5 boroughs for the better. Mayor Bloomberg invited press to the Frank Gehry-designed [4] 8 Spruce Street School and called attention to 10 outstanding projects that are helping to bring more sustainable architecture to the city. From the Squibb Pedestrian Bridge in Brooklyn to the Three Carriage Houses for the Staten Island Historical Society, these game-changing projects bring beautiful, modern design to the communities they're located in. Click through our gallery to see them all and tell us in comments which inspires you most.
One of the projects honored was the fifth phase of Riverside Park South [7] by Thomas Balsley Associates [8] and Sage and Coombe Architects [9]. The green glass pavilion is slated for construction soon, and will be enjoyed by Manhattanites on the waterfront.
Rice and Lipka [10]'s Carriage Houses [11] for Staten Island Historical Society are a series of curvilinear structures capped with red glass. Complementing this project is Mary Miss [10]' "The Passage: A Moving Memorial," which is unique in its recognition as the only project from the Cultural Affair's Percent for Art Program.
HNTB [12]'s Squibb Pedestrian Bridge will connect Brooklyn Bridge Park [13] to Brooklyn Heights in a zig zag pattern, giving walkers ease of mind to cross without dealing with cars while East Elmhurst's library addition by Garrison Architects [14] adds important space for the busy library hub, utilizing sustainable materials, and energy saving design. In the Bronx, the Cary Leeds Center for Tennis showcases an array of outdoor tennis programs designed by Peter Gluck Architects.
Three projects highlighting community park space and gardens [15] were also recognized; the Flatbush Avenue Entrance and Terrace Café, Governors Island Park and Public Spaces, and the Central Park Conservancy Plan, whose overall work has developed a richer, more public friendly park for tourists and locals alike.

Rocklin delays garbage rate hike
By: Jon Brines, Placer Herald Correspondent
The Rocklin City Council is delaying action on the proposed 2.6 percent garbage fee increase for Rocklin residents and businesses. During the public hearing last month, Mayor Scott Yuill said he wanted to delay action because every council member needed to be present to vote on the issue and he wanted more information on how much other cities are charged for their garbage collection. "It seems to me there is some missing analysis here to come to any conclusion on rates," Yuill said. The city runs a public/private partnership with Recology Auburn Placer, the company that takes out the trash for city residents. They are proposing an increase that amounts to about $0.45 more a month in some cases. Rocklin resident Gordon Havens told council even though he could afford the fee increase, he considers it a tax and didn't think it was fair during the economic slowdown. "It's a nominal increase but it's bad timing," Havens said. "The city is laying off people, people are having their homes foreclosed and we have unemployment. I wonder if it is a good time to tell people you want to raise their garbage fee." Michael Murphy, who is a candidate for city council, told the council he was concerned the rate increase would make people start dumping their garbage on city property. "They just don't want to pay the fees at the dump and then end up dumping it and break the law," Murphy said. "They start dumping garbage behind the (city's) corporation yard. Why is it that public services are going up while everyone is cutting back in every way, shape and form?" Murphy said he thought the partnership with Auburn Placer amounted to a monopoly. Officials with the company said the increase is the first in four years and is needed to accommodate garbage workers' negotiated cost of living increases. If this increase is approved, the company is not ruling out another increase next year. The contract with the city allows them to make rate change requests on yearly basis. This year's proposed rate increase is expected to be across the board and would apply to seniors as well. Some residents were concerned about the lack of awareness about senior discounts associated with garbage pick-up. Right now residents, who are age 62 or older, can apply for a rate discount that will drop their monthly garbage rate from $24.11 to $19.84. According to the company, seniors need to apply for the discount at city hall, and provide proof of age. The proposed increase was to take effect in October but now that will be delayed. The council is expected to take up the matter by November. At that time, the public will be invited to discuss the matter at the council meeting.

I wrote this post last week about Seven Wrong Reasons To Date A Guy—so I wanted to write this one to balance things out! :-)
#1 - "She's Hot!" - So is hell! (Ripped that off from Mark Driscoll!)
#2 - "I'm bored & lonely!" - So, because you want "entertainment" you are actually going allow yourself to play games with the heart of a woman that you are not interested in at all? Suck it up and get some friends! Go and fill your life with great work, great friends and great experiences! No woman worth having wants a dude with no life!
#3 - "She Is So Interested In Where I Am & What I Am Doing All The Time And Contacts Me Around 10 Times A Day Just To Check In" - Congrats, you are either dating your mother or a very insecure person—neither one is going to work out for you.
#4 - "She Dresses To Attract Rather Than Dressing Attractive" - There is a HUGE difference! Women can dress attractive; however, when a girl dresses as to purposefully draw your attention to either her butt/boobs you can bet there is going to be trouble. (Check out Proverbs 7:6-23, the picture of what an ungodly woman looks like…notice what Scripture clearly says about the way she dresses in Proverbs 7:10—if she's dressed like a prostitute she has "crafty intent!")
#5 - "She Was Aggressive In Coming After Me!" - Once again, Proverbs 7:6-23 says a lot about the "ungodly woman"...but pay special attention to Proverbs 7:13-22, she came after him, kissed him first, pursued him and flattered him…and it led to a place that none of us want to be! Men, if you want to find a wife then FIND A WIFE (see Proverbs 18:22), YOU should pursue…not her!
#6 - "I Have The Opportunity" - I teach this as a leadership principle…but is applies here as well, OPPORTUNITY DOES NOT EQUAL OBLIGATION! Just because you have a chance to date someone doesn't always mean you should.
#7 - "My Friends Say That She's Perfect For Me" - Unfortunately, sometimes our friends care more about our social status than what is best for us! This is not to say that your friends cannot be a good resource for you…just make sure you are listening to God more than your friends!
#8 - "All My Friends Are Getting Married And I Am The Only Single Guy Left" - Yep. think about that…maybe you're the problem. and you know what, you can do something about it! Ask God to make you the man your future wife is praying for, and then respond in obedience when he gives you some direction. get busy living, man! Don't blame God for not providing a wife for you if you're in debt, out of shape, and undisciplined. Thank him for protecting his daughter from you! If you really love your future wife, you'll listen to her heavenly Father and build a life worth following!
AND…starting THIS SUNDAY we're beginning "Adam & eve"—a series designed to challenge men to STEP UP and become the man God has called them to be (check out more info here) - CAN'T WAIT!
(A special thanks to Shane, Lee, Brad, Cristin, Katie & Suzanne for input on this post!)

Prixin was a traditional Talaxian multi-day holiday that celebrates family.
Prixin was a joyful time for family and friends to gather and enjoy delicious meals. A traditional food served at Prixin was fruit compote served in root nectar, which was typically aged for several weeks before the first night of the holiday begins.
Prixin was celebrated annually aboard the USS Voyager.
The traditional salutation of Prixin (abridged) is "We do not stand alone. We are in the arms of family: [an extensive list of family members is read]. We gather this day to extol the warmth and joy of those unshakable bonds. Without them we could not call ourselves complete. On this day we are thankful to be together. We do not stand alone." (VOY: "Mortal Coil")

AUGUSTA, GA. – (Oct. 25, 2007) – University Hospital's Vascular Lab has received re-accreditation in five areas of vascular testing by the Intersocietal Commission for the Accreditation of Vascular Laboratories.
University has the only vascular lab in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina to receive accreditation in all five areas of testing. During the accreditation process, every aspect of the lab's daily operations and its impact on the quality of health care provided to patients is assessed and reviewed. The accreditation is for three years.
"Participation in the accreditation process demonstrates the laboratory's attention to a high level of patient care and quality testing for the diagnosis of vascular disease," said Shelly Burns, technical manager for the commission.
Vascular labs like University's that are fully accredited are successful in early detection of the leading causes of death and disability in the world.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States, costing society nearly $84 billion each year in health services, medications and lost work time due to disability. Stroke, a disorder of the blood supply to the brain, is the third leading cause of death and disability in this country, with 500,000 new strokes occurring annually.
One American dies every 32 seconds of cardiovascular disease, disorders of the heart and blood vessels. Each year, 2 million people in the United States alone develop deep vein thrombosis, or blood clots in the veins. This affliction becomes life threatening for 500,000 of those people when the blood clot breaks loose and travels to the lungs.
"Early detection of life-threatening vascular diseases is possible through the use of noninvasive vascular testing techniques performed within these vascular laboratories," Ms. Burns said.
ABOUT THE COMMISSION: The ICAVL is a non-profit organization established with the support of 11 medical societies including physicians, technologists and sonographers that represent medical specialties including cardiology, neurology, radiology, vascular medicine, vascular surgery, neurosurgery, internal medicine and biology.
