How early is to early for my newborn to try standing?
My son is two and a half months old and tries walking. He uses his legs to stand and can support himself if your hands are under his arms for balance. His older sister, during their playtime together, will hold his arms and let him take a few steps on his own. My mother is saying it will mess up his bone development in his legs letting him walk this early and my mother-in-law is saying that it won't hurt him, just build up his strength sooner. Should I cut out the walking?

I've been letting my son try to stand since he was a couple weeks old.(I would support him by putting my arms under his) I dont see the harm in it. I've always heard it's good for them to gain strength in there arms and legs. Now he loves to stand and play with his mommy. And I started doing tummy time, also,so he can get some arm strength too. He first rolled over at 2 and half months,from his tummy to back and around 3 and half he rolled over, from his back to tummy. What I'm doing now is putting a stack of pillows around him and stand him up and then which everway he leans he just lean on the pillow. (At the same time i still have my hands around him so he doesnt jerk his head when he falls on the high stack of pillows.) He loves it! Everytime you stand him back up he starts to laugh and cracks up when he lands on the pillows. Even though its fun for him it starting to teach him balance and more strengthposted 09/25/2007 by babygyrl008
If left to develop naturally a baby will not sit before they crawl on their hands and knees and will not stand until they are able to pull into standing. Babies often are placed in standing at very young ages and are often able to support themselves with assistance in these positions, but is this optimal? If you look carefully at your infant when you place them in standing you will notice that they stiffen their legs and their trunk. They use what is actually reflexive movement rather than controled movements to maintain this position. When an infant is put in this position continuously these movements of stiffening their legs and trunk become habits and make more efficient, skilled, refined movements less available. It is optimal to not place your baby in standing until they begin pulling up to stand themselves.posted 05/06/2012 by lisaninlb
I think it is fine to help you baby stand up. My daughter loves to stand and she is only 2 and a half months old. She has een standing with helkp of course since she was just a few weeks old. The only advice I have for you is that you know your own baby better than any one and if you believe that it is fine and not harming your son then go for it. And have fun with it..posted 05/15/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
my son is standing and trying to walk at 6 weeks and I believe it completely normal that they want to try that young.posted 04/15/2014 by ColtonMyBaby
My son did this as well. No it is a myth that it will hurt his legs or cause bow leggedness.. My son is just fine lol. He is 6 months old and sits up on his own, crawls, pulls up on furniture and has started taking steps while holding onto the furniture. Your baby is just fine it just shows that he is ready to learn his new skills :)) and is intelligent :) Good luck on your mom journey its a blast!!posted 07/22/2012 by Brellyxo

The Lutheran ChurchMissouri Synod and the ELCA
published Criminal Justice Ministry: A Congregational Handbook for Jail
and Prison Ministry, which is for those interested in and experienced
with prison ministries. It contains information on preparing the
congregation and training volunteers.
To order, contact Augsburg Fortress, Publishers, (www.augsburgfortress.org; 800-328-4648; #6-0001-6905-1; $6 per copy, plus shipping and handling).
Do people in your congregation or community
have a family member in jail? Look carefully. Out of shame or
embarrassment, they may keep it quite hidden. Once you've found them,
here are ways to help:
• Pray.
•Provide transportation, meals, even lodging, for family members to visit loved ones in jail. Today's prisons are likely built in remote areas away from cities.
•Pay for long-distance phone calls so children and spouses can call a loved one in prison.
• Buy Christmas toys for children of inmates.
•Help pay for day-care for children in families with a parent in jail.
• Encourage parishioners to be big brothers or big sisters to children of inmates.
• Form mentoring teams or support groups for inmates' spouses.
•Tutor children of inmates or offer homework workshops.
•Offer enriching after-school activities for children of inmates.
•Provide children's books, cassette recorders and tapes for inmates to 'read' to their children.
Like thousands of inmates released from U.S. jails each year, Charles Miller walked out of prison after 23 years with no resources to begin a new life as a free man. He had only a bus ticket, the clothes on his back and $65 to secure housing and tide him over until he found a job.
But unlike thousands of other ex-offenders who face such long odds, Miller found compassionate help from Project COPE, an ecumenical ministry run out of Immanuel Lutheran Church, St. Louis. The program pairs individual offenders with church-based committees that assist the paroled person with guidance, housing, clothing, furnishings, employment, budgeting and other services for one year after release.
"If it wasn't for COPE, I'd be out on the streets," says Miller, adding that it's more likely he would be back in jail. "They gave me a place to live and helped me out for the first month until I found me a job." Miller lived for a year in one of Project COPE's two apartments near the church.

Haswell GT3e Pictured, Coming to Desktops (R-SKU) & Notebooksby Anand Lal Shimpi on April 10, 2013 7:21 PM EST
One of the worst kept secrets is Haswell will have four different GPU configurations: GT1, GT2, GT3 and GT3e. As with Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge, higher numbers mean more execution units, with GT3 topping out at 40 EUs. The lowercase e denotes an embedded DRAM part, with some amount of DRAM on the Haswell package itself (not on-die).
In an awesome scoop, the folks at VR-Zone managed to snag a photo of what looks like a quad-core Haswell die with GT3e graphics. The small package to the left should be the Lynx Point chipset (8-series), while the dual-die package on the right is Haswell + DRAM. The big square die should be Haswell itself with its 40 EU GPU, while the smaller die is the DRAM itself.
Intel hasn't officially acknowledged the existence of GT3e, but it did demonstrate performance of the part at CES earlier this year - targeting somewhere around the speed of NVIDIA's GeForce GT 650M. The DRAM size, operating frequency and bus width are all unknown at this point. I've heard the DRAM itself should be relatively small (~128MB), looking at the chip shot we get some indication but there's no confirmation of the specific type of memory we're looking at here (which obviously impacts die area).
Haswell GT3e will be available both in notebooks and desktops, however neither will come in socketed form (BGA-only). The desktop parts will carry an R suffix. This will be the beginning of Intel's socketed/soldered strategy on the desktop, which as of now is set to work sort of like tick tock - with the first chips on any new process being sold exclusively in BGA packages. Haswell will have socketed desktop SKUs, Broadwell won't, Skylake will, etc...
GT3e use in notebooks will be limited to larger designs it seems. Don't expect to find this level of graphics performance in a low wattage Ultrabook part, but it will likely surface in bigger notebooks - perhaps those driving ultra high resolution panels.

Special Report
The Unsustainable Cost of Local Pensions
Wisconsin and New Jersey are just the starting point in the escalating war to clean up this mess.
You wouldn't think that Erie County, Pa., epitomizes the least visible yet most insidious aspect of the nation's pension crisis. With just 280,566 residents, the county is better known for its once-grand status as being the hub between the Rust Belt metropolises of Pittsburgh, Cleveland, and Buffalo, for the sandy Presque Island State Park, and for being the site of one of the few battles won by the Americans in the War of 1812. But these days, Erie County taxpayers are learning plenty about the high cost of pension and retiree healthcare deals struck over the past five decades by politicians and public sector unions.
In the county seat of Erie, taxpayers have seen the city's pension deficit increase by a 12-fold between 2003 and 2007 to $22 million. Given that the most recent audit by Pennsylvania's state auditor only accounts for pension costs from four years ago -- and doesn't account for the last decade's financial meltdown, the current economic malaise, or new deals such as a new contract with the city's firefighters' union that forces it to hire 20 more hook-and-ladder men -- the cost to taxpayers is probably even higher.
Residents in nearby Millcreek Township -- where police officers and other civil servants get free healthcare -- must cover $5.4 million in pension deficits; residents in the city of Corry struggle with a $2 million tab.
While Erie County residents must struggle with a $30 million pension tab for its municipalities, they also face even bigger costs from the county government. The county's pension is underfunded to the tune of $23 million, while the county has set no funds to cover its $69 million in unfunded retiree healthcare costs. And those costs are increasing rapidly. This year, taxpayers will shell out $5 million to cover immediate pension costs -- a 41 percent increase over the costs paid out three years ago.
Erie County residents aren't alone. The $3 trillion tab faced by American taxpayers for state civil servant and teachers' pensions has captured much of the public attention -- and has been the driving force behind heated battles in states such as Wisconsin, Ohio and New Jersey between school reform activists and public-sector unions. But taxpayers must also worry about the nation's 2,329 local pension systems and retiree healthcare benefits, whose deficits are growing thanks to generous public employee deals, feckless fiscal management, and overly optimistic investment assumptions.
Taxpayers in Central Falls, R.I. -- which is now using bankruptcy to deal with $80 million in pension deficits -- have seen the consequences of fiscal incompetence. So have residents in dusty Vallejo, Calif. (which is emerging from its own bankruptcy) and Benton Harbor, Mich., whose government is now under the control of a state-appointed emergency manager. (The American Spectator discusses more about Benton Harbor's fate and that of other Michigan towns in its September issue.) And even more taxpayers are finding their cities heading toward similarly dire straits.
Residents in rugged Baltimore find themselves on the hock for at least $940 million in deficits for its three pension plans; the real tab may be as much as $3.7 billion, according to estimates by University of Rochester professor Robert Novy-Marx and Joshua Rauh of Northwestern University in a study on municipal pensions released earlier this year. With pension costs increasing by 23 percent between 2008 and 2010 -- and facing a $155 million budget shortfall last year -- Baltimore officials enacted a series of modest reforms, including increasing the number of years police officers must work before they can retire from 20 to 25. But the city's public-sector unions, looking to keep the generous benefits (including annuities equal to 60 percent of final salary), are suing to overturn the moves. And the cuts only forestall the inevitable.
Facing even tougher odds is San Diego, which is still struggling with a decade-long pension scandal involving the city's move to divert its share of pension contributions to finance a stadium for its Major League Baseball franchise. The combination of overly generous benefits -- some 487 city employees collect annuities of more than $100,000 a year -- and investments losses have nearly doubled the pension deficit to $2.7 billion. The city paid $229 million in annuity costs this past fiscal year, marking a 48 percent increase over 2009-2010. Those costs accounted for 8.3 percent of the city's budget versus 5.2 in the 2004-2005 fiscal year. San Diego officials are now pushing for a ballot initiative next year to close the pensions to new employees -- and finding themselves in a fierce battle with the city's public sector unions.
Meanwhile in Chicago, deficits for the city's five pensions have increased by 30 percent between 2005 and 2009; the teachers' pension deficit increased by 48 percent during that period alone. New mayor (and President Barack Obama's former chief of staff) Rahm Emanuel now has to wrangle with $15 billion in pension deficits that his predecessor, Richard M. Daley, ignored for nearly all of his two decades in office, all the while battling the city's public-sector union leaders. Those leaders have already won such sweet deals as the ability to buy service credits that they can use to boost their annuity payouts; six union officials now stand to earn an additional $12 million in annuities during their retirement after putting down just $1 million for the privilege.
Municipal pensions are likely underfunded to the tune of $574 billion, according to Novy-Marx and Rauh; this includes a whopping $53 billion pension deficit for both the city and the county of Los Angeles, and an even bigger $122 billion for New York City. Given that the current assets aren't enough to cover all the future costs, cities will eventually have to dip further into their budgets to cover payouts, crowding out spending on public safety, parks, and other activities. Novy-Marx and Rauh estimate that Boston would have to devote 27 percent of projected revenues to covering pension benefits once assets are depleted in 2019; for Philadelphia, whose assets could likely run out in the next four years, it would be 19 percent.
But those numbers are only half the story. Cities, suburbs and school districts are just finally starting to account for billions more in retiree healthcare costs and "Other Postemployment Benefits," for which they usually have no reserves. In Rhode Island, municipal governments have $2 billion in unfunded retiree benefits obligations, according to a state senate report released earlier this year. Taxpayers in Pittsburgh face a $489 million retirement tab (which doesn't include their share of the $906 million in retiree burdens for Allegheny County and its transit authority).
The very same feckless dealmaking between politicians, school districts and public sector unions that have led to the massive state pension insolvencies are also driving the fiscal crises at the local level. Starting in the 1980s, municipalities sweetened payouts through the creation of so-called deferred retirement option programs, or DROPs, in which a government employee forgoes raises and incremental pension contributions in his final years of employment in exchange for a lump-sum payment upon retirement. This resulted in curious situations in which city workers could collect multimillion dollar checks upon retirement -- and still collect six-figure sums. Practices such as "double-dipping," or allowing teachers and other public sector employees to collect annuities and still work for school districts and local governments, have also contributed to the problem. In Chicago, 54 police officers are collecting $2.5 million in annuities and picking up another $2 million in full-time salaries.
Meanwhile, state and local government assessments of their stocks and other investments have been overly optimistic given the historic volatility of the stock market. Local governments took advantage of those inflated assumptions to help boost payments to civil servants while still avoiding paying out those costs directly from budgets. But financial meltdown, along with current economic malaise in which even Fortune 500 companies are socking away cash in low-interest savings accounts, is now forcing municipal governments to admit that the promises weren't even worth the paper on which they were written.
The costs of this Ponzi-scheming aren't borne by local taxpayers alone. State governments, reckoning with their own pension bungling, have to step in to help. Pennsylvania taxpayers shelled out $200 million in local pension relief in 2009 alone; last year, they doled out $5.7 million just to offset Erie County's local pension deficits. Michigan's own state government is taking more direct action. It has seized control of five local governments (including Detroit's stupendously failing school district) over the past two years and could take over 107 more.
States are also bearing local costs through their teachers' pension systems. And this is where things often get worse, because it allows for two of the biggest players in state politics, the NEA and the American Federation of Teachers, to protect the deals that have made teaching the most lucrative profession in the public sector.
In California, school districts have helped boost annuity payouts to teachers and administrators through the practice of spiking, or offering double-digit pay raises. This is one reason why the state's Teachers Retirement System faces a $56 billion deficit. But fixing this problem has proven to be difficult. A proposal to end such pay raises was approved by the state senate but the NEA's Golden State affiliate, along with CalSTRS, has stalled passage of the law in the assembly.
It will take some fierce battles -- like the kinds we saw earlier this year in statehouses in New Jersey and Wisconsin -- just to begin solving this fiscal mess.

Mozilla Firefox has become a browser benchmark, a direct competitor of Microsoft Internet Explorer. Derived from Mozilla , Firefox shines with its lightness, simplicity, compatibility with most major operating systems. It has everything to seduce and quickly became indispensable for one who decides to take the plunge. Firefox does not include e-mail client but the pages load faster and a lot more standards-compliant, to finally see the pages as webmasters have thoughts. His numerous extensions also allow you to customize the software at will, with many gadgets more or less well thought out. Firefox has truly everything to please those who want to browse before any on the net, in the best conditions. This open-source browser also has advanced features such as blocking pop-up ads functions or tabbed browsing. Firefox has long proven to be more than an alternative to Microsoft's proprietary browser.
Google Chrome
Google Chrome is the open-source browser created by the development teams Google to compete with Internet Explorer and internet famous Firefox .
Based on the same WebKit engine as Apple's browser, Safari, Google Chrome offers fast execution of web pages, and stripped with the dynamic tabbed interface, smart location bar (suggestions as you type, historical, favorites …), Safe Browsing, and a private browsing mode to surf in discreetly.

Competitor excellent Firefox , Opera is a famous browser to be both faster and more efficient than the embedded Internet Explorer on Windows. Particularly preferred managing multiple tabs and the integration of a handler emails with integrated spam.
Internet Explorer
Here is the new version of Internet Explorer. It contains many improvements and changes and makes this particular most secure version.
Many features have been added such as:
– "Accelerators" that allows quick connection to a mapping service.
– The "InPrivate Browsing" which prevents Internet Explorer from storing your browsing memory (cookies, temporary files) making navigation more discreet.

K-Meleon is a web browser using the engine of Mozilla . Like Firefox in its infancy, the goal of K-Meleon is to create a free, lighter and more efficient than alternative Internet Explorer . One might therefore ask: why K-Meleon when there is Firefox ? The main advantage of this software is its lightness. According to the official site, it would be possible to run the browser on a Pentium with 32MB of RAM … and it shows, the browser starts almost instantly and takes up very little memory even after a day of sailing. Could believe that the software is obsolete functionality level and is intended for older PCs … But make no mistake. K-Meleon has everything a modern browser: tabbed management, skins, RSS feeds, the ability to add plugins, ad blocking: pop ups, etc. We also appreciate the presence of a bar of "life Private "which allows you to lock in one click a Java application, a pop up or flash animation. You can also create tab groups or even to get K-Meleon to another browser such as Opera offers. The interface is minimalist but very nice. Open source and French , K-Meleon is ideal if you want to change the air.

TCL > July 2004 Issue > Louis G. Isaacson
Louis G. Isaacson
by Bradley A. Friedman
Bradley A. Friedman, Denver, is a lawyer and grandson of Louis Isaacson. He serves as Director of Endowment and Planned Giving for the Endowment Fund of the Allied Jewish Federation of Colorado.
by Bradley A. Friedman
Stanton Rosenbaum is a senior partner at the firm that continues to bear the name of Louis Isaacson: Isaacson, Rosenbaum, Woods & Levy. As Rosenbaum tells it, "In all the years I knew and worked with him, I never heard anyone call him Lou; it was always, Mr. Isaacson. He commanded respect simply by his presence. He was a big man, with a wonderful voice and a memory like no one I've ever known." Certainly, he was one of Colorado's greatest attorneys, as well as a fine human being.
Early Years and Mentoring
Some men succeed because they are destined to, but most men because they are determined to.
Louis Isaacson was born in Denver, Colorado, on February 26, 1910. In 1929, he graduated from the University of Colorado, which he attended on an academic scholarship, and received his law degree from the University of Chicago in 1932. He was admitted to the Colorado Bar that same year. After graduation, he went into private practice. On June 14, 1935, he married Henrietta "Hank" Freund, in Chicago. Later, they had two daughters, Ellen and Linda.
For nearly thirty years, Lou Isaacson employed and trained many of Colorado's most outstanding lawyers and judges. Lou said, "I was a one-man band, doing everything. But it was the trial work that was fun. It was the happiest time of my life."1
Supporting Civil and Legal Rights
In respect of civil rights, all citizens are equal before the law. The humblest isthe peer of the most powerful.
During the early 1950s, Senator Joseph McCarthy brought attention to the alleged communist threat. Seven people were arrested in August 1954 "in the shadows of the Colorado State Capitol" by the FBI and charged with conspiring to teach the violent overthrow of the United States.
Isaacson went to the "large" law firms in town, none of which at the time had more than fifteen lawyers, and asked each to contribute a lawyer on a pro bono basis.
For six months, the attorneys worked full time on the case. The trial then lasted two months and, at its conclusion, all the defendants were found guilty. The attorneys were paid by their own firms, but the firms were not compensated by the federal courts. All the defendants appealed, the case was reversed, and the defendants were tried a second time—and found guilty. They appealed again, the case was reversed again, and this time the U.S. Attorney did not press for a third trial.
Living and Working As a Lawyer
I would rather have clients thanbe somebody's lawyer.
In 1960, Lou founded Isaacson and Pfeiffer. His colleague, Jack Pfeiffer, remembers him as his mentor. "He taught me how to sleep nights—always be honest, forthright—and be so with your client. He was really quite a guy."
Miller says, "Lou was at ease with everyone he ever met. He was a tremendous negotiator, and ethics were very important to him in every aspect of his life." His clientele was diverse. He loved to travel because it provided him with the opportunity to meet new people. In those days, attorneys dictated to a secretary who took shorthand and then transcribed the dictation, using carbon paper to make multiple copies of a document. It wasn't easy to make revisions. "Lou was so intelligent; he could almost always dictate an entire contract, from scratch, in final form. Things got done quickly," says Miller.
Miller describes Isaacson as a "counselor" to his clients. He had a tremendous grasp of the law and a keen eye and mind for the business decisions his clients needed to make. He knew how to apply the law in a beneficial way to get the deal done in the best interest of his client. "In those days, it wasn't unusual for an attorney to make business decisions for his clients. Lou had tremendous business sense and was responsible for the success of many of his business clients," said Miller.
Lou Isaacson had a well-developed ethical code, business sense, keen legal mind, and fervent desire to assist those less fortunate than himself. He also had a memory for restaurants. "Wherever we traveled, Lou always recommended the best places to eat," Miller recalls. He was a man of many talents and tastes.
Service and Honors
In 1954–1955, Lou Isaacson became president of the DBA and, in 1959–1960, was vice-president of the Colorado Bar Association ("CBA"). For the DBA, he also served on the DBA Judiciary Committee, Precedent & Procedures Manual Committee, Advisory and Planning Committee, Public Relations Committee, and the Committee on Committees. For the CBA, he served on the CBA Judiciary Committee, Conference Committee with CPAs, Mental Health Committee, Executive Committee, Judicial Ethics Committee, and the Corporate and Business Law Committee.
In 1973, Isaacson received the DBA's Award of Merit, its highest honor. In 1982, he also was honored by the DBA on the completion of his fiftieth year of law practice. That was the year I, his grandson, graduated from Colorado College and decided to attend the University of Denver College of Law. I wanted to follow in the very large footsteps of my father, Sheldon Friedman, and my grandfather.
A Respected Role Model
Lou Isaacson not only was my grandfather, but also my mentor. Although he retired in 1989, my "mentoring" really began when I was 5 years old and he let me have a few sips of the scotch he was drinking. He then walked me around the block several times to keep my mother from finding out I was intoxicated.
In public and private, Lou was a man people respected. He worked hard and played hard. Whether he was in the courtroom, negotiating a business transaction, on the golf course, or at the card or craps table, he was a man of integrity. He lived his life as an example to be followed by everyone who came in contact with him.
When the use of timesheets became popular, and later automated, I recall numerous conversations in which he lamented that timesheets were the beginning of the end of the legal profession he loved so dearly. In his day, at the end of each month, he would take out his client list. He would go down the list, client by client, and note the tasks he had performed and the results he had obtained. He would then determine a fair price for his time and effort and send a bill.
He believed the use of timesheets was going to spoil the personal relationships he had with his clients and erode the trust he had spent years building with each individual for whom he worked. Gone were the days of doing deals with a handshake. He was worried that clients would become afraid to call or meet personally for advice because they might be billed in six-minute increments. Nevertheless, for the last several years of his active career, he did his best to adjust to the changing times and even dictated his timesheets so clients could be billed accurately for the work he did on their behalf.
A Trusted Trustee
If a man be gracious and courteous to strangers, it shows he is acitizen of the world.
I remember many important clients of my grandfather's and even more amicus briefs and pro bono cases. But one of Lou Isaacson's most important contributions to the legal profession was his service as a trustee of the Waterman Fund. The widow of Colorado U. S. Senator Charles W. Waterman (a member of the Denver Bar for more than forty years) directed in her will that income from her estate go to the DBA to be used
for the sole and only purpose of relieving the financial necessities, assuaging the hardships and lightening the financial burdens of aged, infirm or otherwise incapacitated members of the Colorado Bar in good repute and standing who shall have practiced law in Colorado for a period of at least 10 years.
Until 1983, Lou was the only person to have served as a trustee of the Waterman Fund since the trust was created in 1963. He was quoted as saying, "We have tried to live up to the mandate in the Waterman will in assisting attorneys of good repute who have encountered financial difficulties to get relief, or in many instances to get on their feet and lead a life of accomplishment and pride."
Community Service
Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is whatwe think of, the tree is the real thing.
Throughout his entire career, even in the years building his law practice, this man of great character gave of himself to the community. As a founding trustee of Rose Memorial Hospital, now known as Rose Medical Center, Lou Isaacson served as president for three years and on the board for many years thereafter. "I recall the years when Lou was president of Rose Hospital because he had to squeeze in his law practice and time with us junior lawyers between hospital functions and board meetings," said Jack Pfeiffer in a 1983 speech he gave while presenting Isaacson with an award from the Anti-Defamation League ("ADL").
Isaacson's service to the ADL is legendary. He was a chair of the Denver board of directors and served on the National Community Service, Law, and Civil Rights Committees. His name also is on a number of amicus curiae briefs, including Green v. Continental Airlines,
In addition to his service with the Waterman Fund, the ADL, and Rose Hospital, Lou was on the board of his synagogue, Congregation Emanuel, and was instrumental in its growth and relocation to its present site on Grape Street. He also was a long-time member of the board of directors of the Jewish Community Center and the board of Green Gables Country Club. He was proud of his Jewish heritage and felt strongly that Jewish people, as well as all minorities, should have the same benefits and rights others enjoyed.
Isaacson was happy to be involved with Rose Hospital, which provided a place for Jewish doctors to work, and Green Gables Country Club, a country club that welcomed Jewish members. He worked hard to extend the rights of everyone. His life was devoted to others; he touched and deeply affected those he worked with and for. Many attorneys, and others, have been the direct or indirect beneficiaries of his service to the community.
Personal Life
Lou Isaacson was a deeply devoted husband and father to two daughters. Also, he and his wife liked to travel. They enjoyed meeting other couples on the golf course and playing bridge. Wherever they traveled, there were friends waiting to spend time with them. They were devoted to their four grandchildren. Spending holidays with family, as well as traveling with their children and grandchildren, was important to them.
All the grandchildren were treated to a trip to Washington, D.C. when they reached the ages of twelve or thirteen. They were given extensive tours of the Capitol, White House, and monuments. Because Lou had friends in Washington, they rolled out the red carpet when he arrived. I still have the journal my grandmother made me keep from that trip, describing all the places we visited, things we saw, people we met, and food we ate. That was an experience never to be forgotten.
My father, attorney Sheldon Friedman, recalls Lou Isaacson this way: "He was my father-in-law, my teacher, and my partner. He was always careful to see that these three paths never crossed. We rarely talked business at family dinners. He raised the bar for every attorney he ever worked with, making us all better attorneys than we ever could have been without his influence. He worked hard and led by example. He was the best of the best—a brilliant attorney and counselor. He was the finest of men."

Can clomid make you miss your period?
I took the clomid challenge test last month and this month I missed my period. Currently, I am 21 days late. All HPTs I took were negative. I have never missed a period or even been late. I called the doc's office to ask, and am still waiting for a response. Is it normal to miss a period following the clomid challenge test? Has anyone experienced this?

My family Dr. told me that fertility drugs can do crazy things to one's body. I had 3 cycles of chlomid with ovidrel injection in hopes that an IUI would work but it did not. I missed my last period, July was the last time I had any fertility drugs. I took 2 HPT & they were negative. I also had one taken at the Dr. office which was also negative. I'm holding out waiting for my period to come someday. It's disappointing because we had hoped that during this "break" between the previous fertility treatment & the next step of IVF that I would magically get pregnant. Well............that's not gonna happen if I'm not ovulating now BECAUSE OF THE CHLOMID/Ovidrel!posted 09/12/2012 by a BabyCenter Member

Lawyers Against Hunger
Lawyers Against Hunger will be distributing Turkeys and pantry boxes to over 2000 families this year. There will be 1000 turkeys given out in Oklahoma City, 500 in Norman, and 500 turkeys along with a pantry box in Tulsa. The turkeys will be given out in Oklahoma City on Thursday November 17, 2011, and in Norman and Tulsa on Friday November 18, 2011.
This year Lawyers Against Hunger raised over $60,000 to purchase Thanksgiving meals for those in need. Lawyers Against Hunger partnered with the Eastern Oklahoma Food Bank and Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma to purchase the food to hand out. Co-founder and attorney Noble McIntyre commented that "I've never missed a Thanksgiving meal and don't expect too many of my lawyer friends have either. This was one area we could give back and make a difference. Last year's event provided food for more than 4,500 hungry Oklahomans. This year's event will be even bigger."
This year Lawyers Against Hunger had a competition between Tulsa, Oklahoma City, and Norman to see which group of attorneys could raise the most money. It came down to the wire and Tulsa narrowly beat Oklahoma City with Norman trailing in at third place. "There are no losers in this competition, only winners from each community where we raised funds to help feed the hungry" said Hugh M. Robert, co-founder of Lawyers Against Hunger. "All funds raised by lawyers in the respective competition cities are staying in those cities. We partnered with Iron Gate to help identify those in need and include many deserving groups such as Emergency Infant Services, Veterans groups, Youth Services, and many more," says Robert.
Robert went on to describe "one of the many reasons why we had such a great response from Lawyers and many other groups is that we all recognized the significant need after seeing Oklahoma ranked as the fifth hungriest state in the country with many of the hungry being children."
"It is very fulfilling to give back to the community," said co-founder and Norman attorney David Bernstein. "Thanks to donations from attorneys and local businesses in Cleveland County to Lawyers Against Hunger, as well as the invaluable assistance, we are receiving from the Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma, we have expanded the turkey giveaway to Cleveland County to make sure local families do not go hungry on Thanksgiving."
The turkey will feed 10 or 11 people and the pantry box is designed to supplement a family of 4 for an entire week. This is the third year lawyers have raised money to help provide Thanksgiving meals and the number of families fed has more than doubled each year.

I typically don't post on Sunday however, I thought it would be fun to post a witch every day until Halloween, when my most favorite witch will be posted!
So, why in the world did I take pictures of my friends as witches? One entirely amazing and creative friend of mine hosts a "Witches Tea" every year where we dress as witches and then feast upon the most delectable of foods. This year a few of the items on the menu: brie with grape chutney, savory pumpkin bisque, grilled apple salad, panini milano, and pumpkin cakes.
So here is Adrienne, who I will appropriately entitle "the masquerade witch".
Also, I have been posting a lot of black and whites lately but I cannot wait to share what I shot last night. Imagine a beautiful girl coupled with beautiful light and color. Boy, I can't wait to share these babies!

Beautiful wallet, slim and sleak
This wallet is light, not bulky. Beautiful leather. Changing to this wallet did force me to carry less gift/loyalty cards than I have in the past, but it's always good to simply my life! I also no longer have room for my check register, but this is okay. I'm not writing as many checks these days.

Spikes and studs for a punk rock look are dominating this season
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Sugar and spice and everything nice? Not when it comes to fashion trends for tween and junior girls this season.
Gone are the watery romantic pastels of fall/winter 2012, the prim 50s silhouettes and the hyper-feminine details such as the delicate floral prints, ruffles and lacy inserts. Just try to find a ruffle or anything lighter than neon pink this year.
Fall/winter 2013 features a tough rocker girl styling with lots of attitude and spunk.
It's a triumphant rebirth of 80s style punk rocker and early 90s grunge rocker look -- a style formerly reserved for ruffians and rebel-rousers. The elements dominating this season's hottest fashion trend are black leather, metal studs and spikes, graphic tees and combat boots.
Jewelry is similarly tough and edgy: spiked and studded bracelets and earrings, chunky metal "dog chain" style necklaces, and long and dangly cross pendants.
Naturally, for any rock 'n' roll or punk rock look, the color black reigns supreme. Accent colors this year are the more gothic shades of claret, steel gray and army/camouflage green. The sacred tartan plaid of the London punk rocker is back, usually in the traditional red and black, but also in royal blue and black, and the fabric is frequently embellished with metal studs.
Also, no punk rock or grunge look would be complete without an army green piece in the wardrobe, preferably a cargo jacket or slouchy moss-colored sweater.
One essential part of this look is a leather or faux leather motorcycle jacket or bomber jacket. That this is the "must-have" piece should not be a surprise to even the most casual mall-goer. Nearly every junior store in Charleston Town Center, even those known for more conservative looks, is carrying a variety of faux leather jackets now.
If you can find a jacket with studs or spikes, such as those featured in this story, all the better. For the more adventurous types, try faux leather tights with stud or spike detailing on the legs. Conversely, those seeking a more "restrained" version of the punk look (if there is such a thing) should choose a sweater or blouse with leather accents.
Graphic tees with fringe elements and/or asymmetrical hems are another key item for this look. They are typically longer and worn knotted at the side and layered over knit tanks. Popular graphics now are retro-inspired, featuring popular punk bands from the 80s and 90s. Also hot are tees featuring tigers, animal prints, glittery abstract diamond shapes, and Masonic images such as pyramids, stars and crosses.
As for bottoms, the printed legging and jegging (jeans-legging) trend continues. The rock 'n' roll style legging will be printed with tribal or geometric graphics, or a tartan print, which looks particularly great with a leather jacket. Very Vivienne Westwood, for you fashion historians.
The skinny jean is still the most popular denim silhouette this season; however, the waist is getting higher and the jean is acid washed and/or metal studded. Distressed-styled jeans continue to be hot right now and work particularly well with the punk rock look.
Also, shorts! While most of us tend to think of shorts as being strictly for summer and have already packed them away with those gauzy sundresses, they can be worn in fall and sometimes even in the winter.
This look is a staple in Southern California, but wearing shorts out of season on the East Coast requires different styling. Here, choose shorts with a heavier fabric and in a dark color, and wear them with printed or cable knit tights. Fall and winter shorts also should be worn only with boots or booties.
Which bring us to another VIP in every fashion trend: footwear. For the rock 'n' roller look, it is boots, boots, and ... oh ... boots. Lace-up combat or field style boots, Doc Martens and motorcycle boots with lots of metal hardware are the essential type of footwear this season.
For those girls who prefer the laid-back, West Coast, grunge look of denim and graphic tees, high-top Chuck Taylor's sneakers are a great alternative.
While these looks are not for the timid, what teen girl is anymore?
It's the era of the strong, confident and independent-minded girl, so it is only fitting that this trend would emerge. For those of us who wore these looks when they first came out and the goal was primarily to create shock and awe, the irony of seeing punk rock as the "in" fashion inspires an energetic fist pump in the air.
Now, off to find those old Doc Martens I used to own.

China's Post-Tiananmen Model Is Faltering
Perry Link, Foreign Policy
AP Photo
Deng's succession blueprint, and his decision to use lethal force to quell the 1989 massacre of unarmed protestors, were both shrewd, long-term political calculations. Deng's police could have cleared Tiananmen Square using billy clubs. It had been done when the government cleared the Square of a similar large demonstration on April 5, 1976 that grew out of mourning for the death of Premier Zhou Enlai; that repression, although violent, resulted in only a few injuries and apparently no deaths. Water hoses and tear gas could have worked against the students in 1989, too, but Deng chose tanks and machine guns. His calculation that a dramatic show of force would buy him about two decades of popular docility all across China was correct.

I was like that to, I know they say when that baby is ready he will come, But I was ready so I did a lot of research on home remedies on natural inducers. Have your partner give you a foot massage there are curtain pressure points on the bottom of the foot that can encourage labor, jumping can help, they say sex can help. I tried Castor oil, I took the advise if my mother to try to drink the whole bottle. Eww it was so nasty and I was up all night with the worst stomach cramps and pooped my brains out all night. But a couple of days later got my foot massage and next day my water broke 4 in the morning. Love my son unconditionally but a week later when I was exhausted and up all night I wished he was still safe and quit in my belly LOL good luckposted 08/07/2010 by Barnes9_85

While you may have answered "No way!" to the snob question, some recent articles say otherwise about organic shoppers. Check this out. The May 15, 2012 online issue of Social Psychological and Personality Science published a study by Kendall J. Eskine, Ph.D., psychology professor at Loyola University New Orleans, suggesting that choosing organic foods actually affects people's moral behavior (1). And, it's not for the better.
When you consider your health, the first thing that comes to mind probably is not your ears. However, these vital sense organs need their share of TLC, and with these easy tips and information on common ear problems, you can keep your ears alert and healthy for years to come.
When my kids were growing up in the 1970s, my wife could always consult the teachings of our friend, pediatrician Lendon Smith, M.D. His advice helped us through many of the problems common to children of all eras. Mothers can always use the good advice of seasoned pediatricians who are also well educated in orthomolecular medicine as well as conventional medicine. Pediatrician Ralph Campbell, M.D., has taken the time to pass along some of his sage advice to today's mothers in his new book, The Vitamin Cure For Children's Health Problems.
There were 20 of them, cute and innocent as could be. The farmer raised his shotgun and pumped one shot after another into each one of them, killing every last piglet, and their mothers too. This was heart-wrenching for the farmer, but he knew he had no choice since the State of Michigan was about to descend upon him with a SWAT-style team intending to arrest him as a felon if any of his pigs were found alive on his property. His crime? Harboring an animal that the State had designated as an "invasive species". And this farmer's tragedy was not the only one to play out in the State; there were thousands of others facing similar dilemmas.
No one wants to receive a warning letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). But, the fact of the matter is that they are a normal part of how many industries, including ours, are regulated.
Most Americans do their shopping once a week, a frantic day filled with yellow plastic bags. Whether your shopping list gets stuck to a slab of steak or you drop the eggs, it's always a day full of surprises. Fortunately, there are ways to make this a better experience for both you and the environment; one of these ways is reusable bags.
A few years ago, we had a couple cases of a flesh-eating bacteria bringing fear to many in my part of the world. Two local citizens died and an acquaintance's life was finally spared after a heroic battle that included having his right leg amputated. At the same time, other neighbors died of sepsis.
Not too long ago, I was at the Clark's Nutrition store in Palm Desert, CA. Well-stocked and so clean you could eat off of the floor, this store had another equally impressive side to it that caught my eye: a Value Added Information Center. Not only could you buy what you needed for your body, but you could also get what you needed to nourish your mind.
If you're a veteran of Natural Products Expo West, you know attendees are looking for samples, special show pricing and product information. But perhaps another motivation for Expo West attendance could surpass the urge to stockpile these three resources: finding exciting, new products.
