End The Chore War With Your Teens
Like most people, I was a much better parent before I actually, you know, had children. I had tons of experience with kids and I read a lot of books, too. (Go ahead and laugh.) I knew that it's important to counterbalance privileges with responsibility, and there was no question in my mind that my special snowflakes would be raised to pitch in… well, if not cheerfully, at least with a sense of loyalty to the household. I knew that children are naturally eager to be like Mom and Dad, and that "me do it!" can be parlayed into a routine of ever-increasing self-sufficiency and household contributions. My children would never complain about chores!
And then… I had kids. Ahhh, hubris.
So the thing is, children have their own personalities and foibles (who knew?) and what works for one may not work for the other. My bag of tricks from my nannying days—which totally worked with my charges, back then—wasn't the panacea I'd planned when it came to convincing my own offspring to please, for the love of God, pick up this pigsty. We've been through years of different approaches, treating both kids exactly the same, treating the kids differently, being militant about expectations, backing off and seeing what happens, and the results have been mixed. Sometimes what worked for a while stopped working when the kids got older. Sometimes revisiting a failed approach later on yielded success. Here's the only thing I know for sure: As my children hurtle towards adulthood, my goal is shape them into both self-sufficient and helpful humans. Anything that gets us closer to that goal is a win.
Here's what I've learned about Teens and Household Chores:
Fair doesn't mean equal
This mantra applies to so many facets of life, but I find myself repeating it quite often with respect to chores. There's no such thing as everyone in the house doing the exact same amount of work. I work from home, so I cook dinner a lot more often than my husband because it's easier for me to do so. But he does way more yard work than I do. Etc. Yes, son, you unload the dishwasher more often than your sister, because you're homeschooled and you're here. She, on the other hand, is older and tasked with a multitude of chores we've never even had you attempt, yet, so it's our belief that at the end of the day it's more or less fair. But don't look for equal, because that's not happening. (Pro tip: teenagers just love it when they complain about perceived inequality and you respond with, "Comparison is the thief of joy.")
Assignments vs. pitching in
I know some families chart out weekly chores so that there's no mistaking who's responsible for what at any given time. I'm not knocking this method—it works well for some—but when we tried to legislate every task this way, a certain debate-loving teen of mine refused to do anything that wasn't already on the chart, because "That's not on the chart this week." Through trial and error, we settled on a workable combination of "these are tasks we expect to be completed every weekend" and "these are things we may be asking you to do throughout the week." So, for example, the kids' laundry must be done by Sunday night, but anyone could be asked to do the dishes after dinner on Wednesday or vacuum the family room on Monday.
By any means necessary
By the time the kids are teens, ideally we parents can back off some on how/when tasks are completed. I used to assign chores and that was that; nowadays, I present expectations and leave the kids to work out the details between themselves. My daughter will often pay her brother to do her chores. That's up to them, and as long as stuff gets done, I don't care. Similarly, at one point they swapped their "regular" chores with each other, then asked if that was okay with me. Sure! These are actually very adult skills, I think, learning the value of time vs. money and how to collaborate with others. (Obviously this doesn't apply if you only have one child, but if it makes you parents of "onlies" feel better, my kids also bicker endlessly, so there's that.)
Raise and lower your expectations
On the one hand, older kids can do more, and can do better than littler kids. On the other hand, you have to pick your battles. If the folded laundry is sloppy, is it worth a confrontation? Probably not. Is the demand that rooms be kept spotless the hill you're willing to die on? The trick to ratcheting up responsibilities is to relax your standards on the things that don't matter all that much. So yes, as my youngest moved into teen-hood we started working on skills like hand-washing pots and pans in addition to dishwasher loading, but if he wants to leave dirty socks all over his room, eh, it's not my problem (until laundry day, when he knows he's expected to round up his mess). But dirty socks in communal living areas are not acceptable. Also, remember our foray into creating cooperative kids? One of my favorite tricks from there is the sacred phrase, "When can you have that done by?" Giving your teen that flexibility/power tends to pay off in compliance.
Display and cultivate gratitude
Chores aren't really about chores; it's about shaping our kids into helpful and responsible adults. Even though I expect chores to be done, that doesn't mean I'm not grateful for the effort. I make a point of saying not just, "Thank you for doing that," but also things like, "I appreciate you" and "That was so helpful" and "You doing that for me made my day easier." My husband and I also make similar remarks to one another ("Thank you for making this delicious dinner," "I appreciate all the work you put in on the lawn today"). I believe the kids are picking up this "attitude of gratitude" by osmosis, even if it's sometimes obscured by periods of extreme teenage 'tude.
None of this is to say we don't still have the occasional chore battle, here, but I still think (hope!) we're winning the war on teenage entitlement, one boring household task at a time.

You know at 8 and 5 I already expect a lot of them, and I particularly like the whole 'contribute to the family household' thing rather than chores. And we did so well in the summer! Suddenly hockey season started, school is back on next week (here in Toronto) and as if by magic the whining has begun. WHY, I ask? It's just so unfortunate. And I find myself returning to the person I do not want to me (honestly, I try not to yell and sometimes I even succeed but why does this have to turn into a challenge when we did so well?)…
It truly is an endless battle.
Lucky for me (us) we can blog about it and commiserate, er, I mean, cheer each other on.

My kiddo is a happy helper, right down to her very soul. She truly wants to make you happy and if cleaning the basement will do that, well, then, so be it. She's eleven now and she still likes me a lot! I'm holding on to that as long as I can. For the future, when she's less likely to do things just for the greater good, we have instituted a rewards system that includes money, sometimes manicures, trips to the dollar store, etc., all dependent on the level of chore being completed. She understands and was taught the value of doing a thing because it's the right thing to do, helps mom, easier to find things in a clean room, etc. This system is also very easy to keep going as she is an only child. In my grown up life, there is a paycheck I bring home, a bonus structure for meeting certain company goals, and events held like Food Truck Friday to boost morale. I hope to echo that with my child, as well as teaching her to help for the sake of helping.
I'm pleased that my 8yo has taken to his weekly chore with no complaining (collecting/taking out the garbage) and his 5yo sister is now willingly helping me set the table, and wants to "wash" dishes. It's fun to let them accomplish stuff like that, even if they do it somewhat badly, and for them to see how nice helping out can be. I have hope for their teen years. Wise, Mir, thx for the advice.

Yes yes YES! To the gratitude thing. Oh my gosh. The, "why should I praise my child for something that's expected" thing grates on my nerves so much. Expectations without gratitude is what's known as "taking for granted." You don't like it, why would your kids?
Autumn Aug 30 at 12:55 am Reply
This also works with husbands. I'm transitioning back to working more now that our kiddo is older and day care is more school how than eat sleep poop and I missed working too. Anywho, he's having a heck of a time dealing with me not being able to do all the household stuff I could get done with kiddo napping for 4 hours a day. (Good sleeper, thank the dear Lord, which scares me from having another). Getting him to take ownership and me to let go has been a good challenge. And the kiddo's fear of vacuum is an obstacle to him carrying out responsibilities as planned

Mir, you have a great sense of humor! The article was helpful in dealing with my ever changing household. My kids at home are 15-22. I"m really struggling with fairness since two of them have jobs. We live on a small farm, and there is so much to do!

Niue Set To Receive Additional Firefighting Resources
WELLINGTON, New Zealand (Radio New Zealand International, Nov. 28, 2012) – As Niue continues to battle dry conditions the island's fire fighting resources are to be strengthened.
A refurbished fire engine, funded by Australia and New Zealand, is to be provided to Niue's international airport in January.
One of the two airport fire engines, which are also used to fight fires away from the airport confines, was wrecked in a crash earlier in the year.
Meanwhile Niue has been in the grip of a drought for several months and the Secretary of Government, Richard Hipa, says there are plans now for a full fire ban on the island.
"We are calling on the people to use their commonsense and hence the Cabinet paper that will go into Cabinet next week - we are considering under the National Disaster Council of putting in a fire ban on the situation at the moment, because there have been some fires over the weekend."

Schedule wellness checkups for your pet every six months
A wellness checkup, also called a "wellness exam," is a modified version of the traditional annual veterinary examination. Updated to reflect the changing nature of pet care, wellness checkups take into account 1) pets age faster than humans and 2) are living longer lives. Notable health changes in pets can develop in a relatively short period. Also, as pets live longer, the risk of potential health conditions steadily increases. Reducing the interval between examinations increases your veterinarian's ability to detect, diagnose, and propose treatment options in a timely fashion. In this way, regularly-scheduled wellness checkups play a significant role in improving the quality of your pet's life.

So we were expecting that Facebook will launch a new Email service but we were wrong (Not completely). Facebook think Email is too slow for communication and that's why they have launched new features call
According to Facebook stats, almost 350 million users are using Facebook messaging system. According to Mark Zuckerberg, next generation messaging needs following element:
He emphasize more on one on one messaging more than one to many. One point which I liked the most in his announcement " When you send a SMS people are likely to open it but it's not the same with Email."
Today Facebook introduced three new features which will be start of next generation messaging.
Three new features added by Facebook today are:
- Seamless Messaging
- Conversation History
- Social inbox
Seamless Messaging:
Seamless messaging option will let you communicate via different ways like messaging, IM, SMS and Email. Zuckerberg added this is not email but still it will handle Email. People are going to get facebook.com Email address.
Conversation History:
Do you use an iPhone? Unlike other mobile phone (Nokia, Samsung), it puts all the SMS history with one person under one SMS thread. This is more like the same but will have all the history under one box.
Social Inbox:
Social inbox let you see Email you have received from your social network. More likely from friends on friend. From people you might know. This way you will receive less or no spam at all.
I'm not sure about this, but your Facebook privacy setting is going to play a major role here.
Here is an official video from Facebook team about this new Facebook messaging system:
What Next?
Facebook is launching IMAP support which is going to be real killer. As you can have all the conversation on your desktop using any IMAP supported Email client. Also an updated Facebook app for iPhone is coming with all these features integrated within it.
What will be your Facebook Email address?
I know Zuckerberg is saying he has not launched Email service but it's more or less an Email service. Now the question is what will be your Facebook Email address. If you have setup a username for your Facebook profile (read: How to set up Facebook Profile username?) , you will have an address like: http://www.facebook.com/harsh.agrawal
So your Facebook Email address would be : [email protected]
I hope to see this new feature soon for my Facebook profile so that I can test and comment more on this new Email feature of Facebook.
I will keep you posted more about the latest updates on all new features launched by Facebook. You can join us on our Facebook fan page to keep your self updated.

Where There's a Will - Recap
<-- Previous Episode
Next Episode -->
The scene opens with Peter taking Neal along, for assisting him in authenticating tycoon Nathaniel Rowland's will. The tycoon's sons Josh and James are disputing which of two is accurate. On further investigation it turns out both are forgeries. During the investigation process, Peter bonds with James' daughter. Further tests are needed, is what is concluded by both Peter and Neal. Meanwhile, Mozzie positions a closed circuit camera on the treasure so they can both monitor it. He discusses plans to sell a Degas painting from the collection. Meanwhile, Peter tells Neal that Rowland forged the signatures on the wills himself, using his left hand for the fictional witness names which are anagrams. One of the names spells out the 15th century astronomer Tycho Brahe. Seals on the two wills appear to form a map.
Later a strange woman is in the office to meet with Peter. Based on her bag, Neal determines she must be with art crimes department in D.C. Peter tells the art crimes agent, Melissa Matthews, about the manifest. After she leaves, Neal pretends to be someone outside the building and tells Matthews he's looking for Peter. Peter and Neal tell Rowland's sons about the puzzle. Neither seems interested in following their dead father's clues, all they are interested in, is acquiring his wealth for themselves. Peter gives Neal permission to look into it. Later, Neal and Mozzie look at a sundial while Peter and Elizabeth have lunch. Eventually, puzzle nerd Peter can't stay away from being a part of the investigation process. He and Elizabeth show up to meet the guys. The four of them use some mirrors and determine the clues point to three letters: BSH. Jones calls Peter to tell him James's daughter Savannah has been kidnapped.
Meanwhile, Savannah is being shown live and well on a website, the person wants $6.4 million (the amount James was left in cash) in four hours. The feds can't trace the web signal. Josh is brought in. He assures them he loves Savannah. He tells them BSH means Big Sky Hunting, a reference to Manhattan's planetarium. They tell Josh to work on getting his niece back while they focus on the will. Meanwhile at the planetarium, they learn that the generous donor Rowland last visited the building in December, signing in under Brahe with the note "happy birthday to me." After looking at the astrological image from Brahe's birthday, the guys determine the clue must be in a note Brahe wrote to his deceased twin. The letter is at the planetarium, donated by Rowland. Unfortunately, the book is sealed in half-inch glass and the pages are mechanically turned each day. It will be several days until the book gets to that page and the planetarium can't gain access. Peter focuses on finding Savannah.
Neal is now in charge of figuring out how to access the relevant pages of the book. Neal and Mozzie figure out that the alarm system for the book is the same as the rest of the building. They come up with a plan to gain access to the book; it involves Peter and Elizabeth's dog, Satchmo. Meanwhile, the team has found a man named Brett who setup the security system for Rowland and it turns out, has a relationship with Savannah. They start looking at other homes where he's done security. Mozzie pretends to be blind. He tricks a security guard into letting him look over his shoulder as he enters the access code. Neal enters the code, opens the bottom of the case and begins changing pages. Meanwhile, four homeowners Brett has worked for are on vacation. Peter sends the team to watch those locations, as he doubts that something might transpire in one of them. In the meanwhile, while working on the book, Neal tells Mozzie he plans to pay Matthews a visit before she leaves town.
Mozzie is selling the Degas that night. The book refuses to stop on the correct page. Frustrated, Mozzie drills a small hole in the glass, so as to gain a quick access to the exact page they require to. Unfortunately to their utter dismay, as soon as air hits the book, it disintegrates. When informed about the fiasco, a furious Peter tells Neal the planetarium is going to sue. Neal is confident the book wouldn't have been that delicate. It must have been a fake, he infers. This was Rowland's plan, is the most obvious conclusion that can be drawn from all that has transpired. Meanwhile, it turns out that, symbols remaining on what's left of the book match those on Savannah's ankle bracelet. The plan is to lure Brett out by saying the money is tied up in the treasure hunt. Later, Posing as James' attorney, Neal tells Brett about the importance of Savannah's ankle bracelet. Neal tells Brett they know who he is. The only way to get his money is to meet them with the bracelet. Brett hangs up.
The countdown clock on Savannah's website goes to zero and the screen goes blank. Meanwhile, James is panicking. The homes Brett has worked on turns out to be a dead-end. Peter tells Diana and the team to go through his home looking for any other clues. Meanwhile, Brett arrives at Rowland's home with the bracelet and a pocket video showing Savannah is okay. She will stay that way provided he isn't followed when he leaves. James and Josh tell Neal the charms on the bracelet point to a picture of the three of them taken on Christmas when they were young. Brett is bitter, he divulges the reason. Rowland didn't help him a year earlier when he had money issues. Meanwhile, Diana directs Peter to a likely location for Savannah. It is discovered that, the picture was cut in two pieces, one each on opposite sides of a room divider. Brett orders them to break in just as Peter and his team bursts in and rescues a perfectly fine Savannah. Brett is arrested.
Later, Savannah is reunited with her father. They decide to see what is in the wall. Inside are the real will and the original copies of Brahe's manuscripts. Later, at the office Peter tells Neal, "it's good to be back to normal." Neal "runs into" a slightly drunk Matthews and pretends to be an Interpol art crimes agent who met with Peter for the exact same reason. He gets her to reveal Peter has part of the manifest. If any of the pieces of art is sold, they will have their thieves. The episode ends with Neal excusing himself, calling Mozzie and telling him to not sell the painting, as that would mean the both of them falling in trouble; although disappointed Mozzie sees the logic in it and agrees. The episode ends.

One of Kate
Middleton's' favored designers, Daniella Helayel, showcased a collection of
printed chiffon kaftans, woven jacquards and geometric patterns.Models
wore thick jackets with shearing and fur linings, accessorized with wide brimmed
hats and eagle feathers in a collection inspired by the rugged landscape of the
Navajo Indians."There are lots of feathers, lots of feather prints, it
was also inspired by rugs, different textures and body paints," Helayel,
designer for Issa London, told Reuters backstage after the show.With
buyers from 39 different countries in attendance, the British Fashion Council
estimates orders of more than 100 million pounds ($155.23 million) are placed
during London Fashion Week each season.The five-day event blends
emerging talent with veteran designers such as Vivienne Westwood and is best
known for its cutting-edge talent and avant garde trends.HOUSEHOLD
NAMESCoral pink mohair bags and oversized green coats pinned at the
waist with matching belts featured in John Rocha's collection.John
Rocha, a household name in Britain who designs a high street collection for
department store Debenhams, said he took his inspiration from the countryside
surrounding Dublin, where he has lived for more than 20 years."It's
based a lot on the Irish winter countryside, so almost like tree barks, or
roses, it's all about trying to mimic the color I see outside," Rocha told
Reuters after the show."I'm just trying to bring all these things
together and make something that's beautiful."Earlier in the day, on a
pillar box-red stage, boxy Sixties silhouettes in canary yellow and shocks of
fluorescent orange burst into the packed show of British designer Jasper
Conran.Earthy olives muffled loud neons, while cloche hats in matching
shades added a feminine finish to the collection, which was viewed from the
front row by actor Richard E. Grant."There is a hell of a lot of bright
color, which is balanced off with dark aubergines and blues and chocolate browns
... really in your face," Conran told Reuters before the show.Conran,
who also collaborates with Debenhams, said Britain should see garment
manufacturing as a business opportunity."China is going to be a huge
emerging market for this country, and they want things that are made in Britain.
We don't have a manufacturing industry but that doesn't mean we can't create
one," he said."TOTALLY OVER THE TOP"Julien Macdonald offered up
his modern interpretation of glamour with a dazzling array of evening dresses in
gold, silver, canary yellow and emerald green.Longer gowns featured
hand-sewn mirrors, chains and metal embellishments while sequined fringing
embellished the minimal hemlines of shorter dresses."The dresses are
totally over the top, they're glamorous - there are party dresses and cat suits.
There's lots of knitwear made in super sophisticated sexy shapes, traditional
lace with incredible embroidered techniques," Macdonald said.Moschino
Cheap And Chic and House of Holland were a hot ticket for London's pretty young
things.At Moschino, black-lipped models sashayed in alternate direction
through a runway maze lined by masses of buyers, celebrities and admirers;
showcasing monochrome stripes black trousers with punk inspired silver
studding.Black rockability style blazers and buttoned up shirts were

Los Angeles voters of all political persuasions want more local solar powering their city; in fact they want lots more. So says a new poll on L.A. attitudes toward renewable energy conducted by the public research firm Fairbank, Maslin, Maullin, Metz & Associates (FM3) for Vote Solar. Along with our fellow advocates, we're urging city and utility leaders to take note and keep taking bold steps to expand solar investment at LADWP, the nation's largest municipal utility.
"Sunny Los Angeles has enormous potential to lead the state in solar energy, and in recent months city leaders have done a commendable job of putting L.A. in a position to harness that homegrown renewable resource," said our own Southwestern Solar Advocate Susannah Churchill. "Our poll shows that this is the kind of solar progress that Angelenos overwhelmingly want to see in their community."
The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) accounts for 10 percent of California's electricity demand. The utility currently gets less than 1% of its power from solar generation, falling behind much of the rest of the state. Their online power content label actually has solar power at 0% of their portfolio. Right now, L.A. solar is a rounding error. Clearly, sunny L.A. has a whopping untapped local solar opportunity.
Looking to put that rooftop potential to good use, Los Angeles has recently taken steps to expand its use of local solar power. In September 2011, LADWP reopened its Solar Incentive Program with a goal of installing 125 megawatts (MW) of net metered solar to meet on-site power needs at homes and businesses. And in April 2012, the City Council and Mayor authorized LADWP to move forward with a new feed-in tariff program called CLEAN LA that will add 150 MW of rooftop solar power to the city's electricity mix. It's the biggest municipal feed-in tariff in the country – pretty exciting! Together these programs will result in about five times the amount of solar currently installed in L.A. and generate enough electricity to power more than 60,000 homes.
"Local solar power puts our energy dollars to work building a healthier and more prosperous L.A. An expanded solar program would put more boots on roofs and create more jobs in areas that need them most," said Bill Gallegos, Executive Director of Communities for a Better Environment (CBE), a leading environmental justice organization. Poor communities often get the worst of the fossil fuel energy system. It is only fair that they enjoy the environmental, health, and economic benefits of the clean energy system.
"In addition to proving hugely popular among L.A. residents, expanded use of local clean energy can reduce the city's dependence on out-of-state dirty coal power," said Evan Gillespie Sierra Club, America's largest grassroots environmental organization. "City leadership has set an exciting goal of getting LADWP off dirty coal. It just makes economic and environmental sense to harvest our homegrown solar resource, creating more local jobs and economic development for Angelenos.
Which brings us back to the poll: findings confirmed that Los Angeles voters stand behind the kind of solar leadership recently demonstrated by the city and would support further solar investment. An overwhelming majority feels that the city should have its eyes on the target of 1,200 MW of solar – that's LADWP's share of Governor Brown's statewide local clean power goal. 1,200 MW of rooftop solar would generate enough clean, reliable electricity to power more than 260,000 homes and make Los Angeles a real solar powerhouse.
Key poll findings:
- A large majority of voters want LADWP to use more electricity generated from renewable sources like solar (87 percent) and wind (79 percent).
- In fact, a large majority want LADWP to use MUCH more renewable electricity: 73 percent want at least half of the city's electricity mix to be renewable.
- Three-quarters (76 percent) of respondents specifically feel that LADWP should be doing more to expand the use of local rooftop solar in Los Angeles.
- Four out of five (81 percent) support LADWP increasing its local solar goal to 1,200 megawatts, LADWP's portion of Governor Brown's statewide goal for local clean power. Support for this goal remains strong across the political spectrum, with majorities of Democratic, Republican and Independent voters all expressing support.
From March 14-18, 2012, FM3 completed 400 telephone interviews with registered voters who are Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) customers. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of +/- 4.9%.
A memo detailing the survey and findings is available here.

Tax center scheduled to open Jan. 23
January 12, 2012
By Cursha Pierce-Lunderman, Fort Jackson Leader
FORT JACKSON, S.C. -- Taxpayers have two extra days to file their income tax returns this year, and Fort Jackson is ready to help Soldiers and their families meet the April 17 deadline with free preparation and filing at the tax center.
The center will open 10 a.m., Jan. 23 in a new location at 3390 Magruder Ave.
The new location will be equipped to handle the needs of Soldiers and family members alike.
"There is a waiting room and a small play center for children, because we know people may need to bring their children," said Capt. Adam Wolrich, officer in charge of the tax center. "The key is for the Soldiers and families to have all of the documents needed for filing with them and ready because we value privacy and cannot save information or leave a file out to be completed later."
Taxes will be prepared by Fort Jackson Soldiers who volunteered for the opportunity to serve others.
"We have a well-trained group of Soldiers who are excited about helping people with their taxes this year," said Staff Sgt. R.J. Morales, assistant noncommissioned officer in charge of the tax center. "Soldiers volunteered for the training but had to make it through an interview process before being selected as part of the team here. Then, we all went to VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistant) training done by the IRS on basic level, intermediate level and military tax preparation."
The VITA training covers many areas of tax preparation, but some income situations are too complex for the Soldier volunteers.
"We won't be able to prepare the taxes for some families if they own rental property or their own business, for example," Morales said. "It is best to call our tax center, then we can talk about specifics and make sure we can help with the filing."
The staff of the tax center encourages families to have a few discussions before their filing to help ease the preparation process.
"We'll have Soldiers filing their taxes for the first time this year and we need for them to find out if their parents will claim them as dependents before we do their taxes," Wolrich said. "Also, if there is a married couple filing jointly, both of them need to come for the appointment, which should take about an hour. We are open until 7 p.m. so that we can help after regular business hours."
There will be eight Soldiers available to prepare taxes on a walk-in basis at the tax center every weekday from 10 a.m. until 7 p.m. The center will also be open on select Saturdays during the tax season.
"This tax center is just a great example of how Soldiers help Soldiers here on post," Wolrich said. "Our goal is to help as many people as possible while we are here."
For more information, call 751-JTAX (751-5829).

Bill O'Reilly: "We Have a Muslim Problem"
In Bill O'Reilly's appearance on Don Imus's radio show yesterday morning, O'Reilly bemoaned having to say that "Muslim extremists attacked us on 9/11″ instead of just Muslims. When Imus stood up for the principle of being "clear and concise" with the words we use, O'Reilly pushed back.
O'REILLY: It isn't extremists–that marginalizes the problem. This is a Muslim problem.
To his credit, Imus strongly disagreed with O'Reilly and pushed back on his accusations. Imus brought up his friendship with a Muslim family at his son's school, pointing out that O'Reilly's logic would unfairly implicate and slur them as somehow responsible for violence.
O'Reilly's admission is a brazen display of bigotry. Most of the time when pundits complain about "politically correctness," I assume they're upset at being misinterpreted as biased because they dispense with hypersensitive euphemisms and "speak the plain truth."
But here, O'Reilly states clearly that he's not complaining about being inaccurately accused of bigotry–he's offended that his actual, sincere bigotry isn't accepted by everyone else.
Bill, when even a Fox News "shock jock" with a lengthy record of courting controversy is encouraging you to temper your rhetoric, maybe it's time to reconsider.

There are specific guidelines for spacing on various types of envelopes. Please refer to the following link on the United States Postal Service website at http://pe.usps.gov/text/dmm300/002_OCRreadarea_t.htm to see the optical scanning area for placing addresses on letter size envelopes. The postal machinery reads from the bottom up so there should be no markings or text either below or to the sides of the box area. Problems we've encountered with the scanning areas include slanted labels, color labels, color envelopes, addresses not showing in window envelopes and addresses either below or above the box area.
Please refer to the following link for Business Reply Mail at http://pe.usps.com/text/dmm300/507_BRMformat_t.htm. There are several scanning areas which should be free of any text. We prefer that you put your name and mailbox number in the upper left hand corner in the permit holder's area. It is also acceptable to put your information directly above the ECU return address line on the #9 envelopes we sell at our office. We need this information to know which account to charge for postage when the envelopes are returned to campus.
The type of mail you bring to our office determines whether or not the envelopes need to be sealed. Those that need to be sealed include foreign mail, student mail at the Bookstore, postage attached (including Business Reply Mail), card size (e.g. thank you notes), bulky envelopes and manila envelopes. Most of the ECU #10 letter size envelopes can be left unsealed if they are being sent as bulk mail or outgoing departmental mail that needs postage. We ask that you paper clip or band together bundles of mail and put your departmental mail code in the upper left hand corner of the first envelope. Please keep sealed and unsealed envelopes in separate stacks. We prefer that you moisten the flaps when sealing your envelopes. If you use tape, please secure the ends and middle portions of the flap to keep them from getting jammed in the postal machinery.
Many offices buy their envelopes from off-campus vendors but they need to be light in color to show the postage indicia and avoid the large triangular flaps because our mail machine is designed to seal the smaller flaps. For manila envelopes, buy those without the metal clasps because they will need to be removed before mailing. New postal guidelines place surcharges for bulky or metallic items in envelopes to include alligator clips, bindings, pencils, pens, coins and keys. You should never place staples on your envelopes because they can catch on the machinery and present a health hazard to personnel handling the mail. You should instead seal the envelopes using the flaps or reinforcing them with a clear strapping tape approved for mailing.

For years, I have held it together on those first days of dropping off my kiddos at preschool or day care or elementary school. It was easy with my oldest Zoe who happily skipped into classrooms. My youngest Ryan was sometimes OK and sometimes clingy and crying. But although I might weep privately once I got in the car, I faked the cheery bye-bye hugs and, as advised by preschool teachers, walked away without looking back.
Besides, I loathe crying in public, and I rarely do it because I dislike all-eyes-on-me attention.
But the other morning, on Ryan's big first day of kindergarten, I messed up. Big time.
I had managed to bury the big lump in my throat as Ryan eagerly and excitedly got ready for his momentous dive into independence: Squeaky-clean from a bath, he dressed himself in his new shorts, new underwear and new glow-in-dark shirt. He decided to wear a hat and I let him even though I wanted nothing to obscure his beautiful face. He packed his backpack with appropriate school supplies as well as $2.39 in change, a dollar-store mini-trophy, fruity Tic-Tacs and a ginormous golden box decoupaged with Raggedy Ann and Andy that he snagged from my mom's house.
Ryan ate his strawberries and peanut butter for breakfast without complaint and was ready to go 45 minutes before we had to leave.
When we got to school, he was happy and could barely contain himself:
I was still managing. I squelched tears during the obligatory first-day-of-school photos (although people close to me will recognize my "smile" and know that I was seconds away from an emotional meltdown…and although Ryan's face looks like he might be sad, the sun was bothering his eyes and he was impatient with the picture-taking because he wanted to go-go-GO to kindergarten):
Ryan, big sister Zoe, my husband and I all accompanied Ryan to his classroom. And while the three of them walked Ryan inside, I lost it in the most ungraceful way possible.
I'm talking loud blubbering and gushing tears and snot on my face and mascara running and odd gesticulations in failed attempts to stop the waterworks.
It took me a good two to three minutes of standing in the hallway to semi-compose myself before walking into the classroom and losing it all over again.
I know my boo-hooing made at least one other mom cry. And another mom understandably had to avert her eyes so she wouldn't start crying.
Worst of all, my sadness affected Ryan. Remember how happy and excited he was? After watching my dramatic episode, my boy's smiles turned to this:
I hugged him and, still crying although not as embarrassingly so, said, "I'm only crying (sniff, sniff) because (sniff, sniff) I looove you so much…"
At that point, the kind kindergarten teacher handed me a box of Kleenex and my husband told me it was time to take Zoe to her class and I manically waved good-bye to Ryan and reluctantly left.
Of course, my wailing and Ryan getting sad and teary made this milestone harder for both of us (and other parents). Not only are teachers correct in advising parents to fight the tears, say a quick good-bye and confidently walk away, BUT they're also right in that a kid may cry but, once you leave, the child is almost always fine, even happy.
I know this was the case for Ryan because I secretly went back to spy, jumping up-up-up to peek at him through the high basement-like windows and ducking down, as if my life depended on it, to avoid being spotted by Ryan (and the teacher).
So if you have a baby, a preschooler, a kindergartener or even a college kid, please take my advice and, whatever you do, fight those tears and smile with confidence. Fake it until you make it, as they say. Your child, the teacher and other parents will all thank you for it. (For more tips on kindergarten success, please read Harvard University's 12 Ways to Help a Child Make the Transition to Kindergarten).
How do you feel about the first day of school? Anyone have a similar boo-hooing story to share? Or maybe tips for keeping it together?

BlackBerry-maker Research In Motion released Twitter for BlackBerry smartphones that is considered to be the first endaevour of the company at a mobile Twitter application. But still only beta-testers can experience the app any way it is possible to look for it by means of unofficial channels.
You are provided with a list of shortcuts for RIMs new Twitter for BlackBerry app.
Wile in a message list:
1. In order you want to reply to a message, press R
2. In order you want to reply to a message and other Twitter users that have an @ symbol, press L
3. To send a Direct Message to the highlighted Twitter user, you have to press C
4. To jump all the way to the top, click T
5. To occur in the bottom of the message, you are to click B
6. If you want to repost a specific users tweet, click F
7. To page down, it is better to click the Space Bar.
One can admit the BlackBerrys retweet shortcut is based on Twitters new annoying retweet format because of which you are not able to alter the text you want to retweet, moreover, you are unable to add your own text to reposted messages. It would be better of RIM to let users to change the text they want to post.

passing like an after thought
"Oh we just got a report that building seven went down in that same block, but moving right along". What fascinates me was that the day before this happened on September 10th another headline news was reported in passing, do any of you remember when Donald Rumsfeld made a startling announcement that about 2.3 trillion dollars was missing from the pentagon? That is more money than what some third world country as a whole are worth. If it was cash in hundred dollar bills it would overfill the pentagon. So how the heck can something that much go missing? But please don't take my word on it, research it yourself. No one knows where it went? The next day that part of the pentagon where the investigation was held over the missing trillions conveniently got hit by one of the hi-jacked planes and how soon we forget when we got distracted with this crushing event.
This year marks the Hundredth anniversary of the Federal Reserve, the institution that prints our money, also the bureau of internal revenue which later became known as the I.R.S. were both enacted at that time, a century ago during Christmas time on Dec. 22nd, Ever since it came into existence America has had a great depression, two world wars, Vietnam war, a bunch of covert little wars and now the middle east. The fact is wars makes money for the banks and they finance both sides of the war so they can't lose.
Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy had lots of things in common but the three main ones are 1. they were presidents of the U.S. 2.they both were assassinated and 3. they both issued new currency away from the banks. Lincoln created the Greenbacks, And Kennedy with his silver certificates, if enough of these notes were circulated it would of eliminated the federal reserve notes and put them out of business. Are you starting to see a pattern?
So how does the pentagon and the twin towers, and the events from 9/11 play into this? After 9/11 gold and silver went up in stocks. That's because the two building were holding a lot of gold and silver, from other foreign banks or private investors. Earlier there were reports of underground trains being loaded up with cases. Could this been a gold and silver heist? One of the biggest in history? and no one would ever know because the evidence melted away, which is another reason that building seven "got pulled" there were evidence that had to be erased. But the most obvious one is using this event to go to war but ironically it was with Iraq not Afghanistan to hunt Bin Laden. Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11 they sold it on a bad lie and threw Collin Powel under the bus playing the blame game, and as a bonus the insurance policy on the two buildings being attacked by terrorist got the owner billions of dollars. Remember I am only asking the question of motive and who really benefits from this event and the list keeps growing that profits the banks.
A wise old man came to my sale once and rather than spend money, which he didn't have much of, he wanted to barter because he was trying to make a difference, he explained to me that we had to break the illusion that money is the end of all needs where in reality it has no nutritional value nor any physical value (it is a fiat currency that is not backed by anything) it represents a debt that makes the few bankers rich while the middle class goes extinct. By using it you support the wars, the monopolies, the jobs going over seas, the bullying of third world countries and our bill of rights slowly eroding and taken away. If everyone stopped using it he explained, yes it would be an inconvenience but the world would be in a better place.
I am starting to understand him now. He grows food at his house and raises chickens, he seems way ahead of this game which may explain why the administration frowns upon doomsday preppers. I don't know what are your thoughts on this?

WILMINGTON, Ohio, Oct. 19, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NB&T Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq:NBTF), parent company of The National Bank and Trust Company ("NB&T"), Wilmington, Ohio, announced net income for the third quarter of 2010 increased 22.7% to $1.2 million, or $.36 per share, from net income of $992,000, or $.32 per share, for the third quarter of 2009. Average earning assets for the third quarter of 2010 were $639.7 million, compared to $506.8 million for the third quarter of 2009. This increase is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of Community National Bank ("CNB") in December 2009 and American National Bank ("ANB") in March 2010. These acquisitions also contributed to net income for the first nine months of 2010, increasing to $8.1 million, or $2.38 per share, from net income of $2.5 million, or $.79 per share, for the first nine months of 2009. The increase in net income over the same nine months of last year is primarily due to the bargain purchase pre-tax gain of approximately $7.6 million in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") assisted acquisition of certain of the assets and liabilities of ANB, as well as a $4.5 million increase in net interest income largely offset by a $3.5 million increase in non-interest expenses, and a $3.1 million increase in income taxes. In addition, the Company realized a pre-tax gain of $1.4 million on the sale of its insurance agency in January 2010.

Patrick Donovan
Patrick Donovan was born in Hampshire, England, in 1944 and brought up and educated in Dorset, on the English Channel coast. He specializes in marine and military subjects using watercolor, oils, pen, ink and pencil.
He served ten years in the British Royal Air Force as a member of the Mountain and Desert Rescue Service, painting, sketching and cartooning whenever the opportunity arose. In 1970 a serious climbing accident forced Patrick into premature retirement from Service life and led to the start of a successful painting career. Since then, he has held numerous one man exhibitions in Kent and North Wales and his paintings of traditional French shipping have been exhibited in several venues in France including a one man show in Etaples.
For the last eight years the Royal Society of Marine Artists has accepted Patrick's paintings for inclusion in their Annual Exhibition held in the prestigious Mall Galleries, London. Since 2006 he has been exhibiting at the Maritime Gallery at Mystic Seaport, in Mystic, Connecticut in their exhibitions; "Modern Marine Masters", the International Marine Art Exhibition" and the annual Holiday shows. He is a Signature Member of the American Society of Marine Artists (ASMA) and his paintings are also to be found in many military establishments, museums and private collections in the United Kingdom and abroad. One of his images was used for a civic birthday card for Her Royal Highness the Queen Mother's 80th birthday. His work has also helped raise funds for two Royal Air Force memorials: The Battle of Britain Memorial is on the north Embankment of the Thames near the Houses of Parliament; the second, commemorating those Service Personnel who have died on duty serving with the Royal Air Force Mountain Rescue Teams, is in the Church of St. Clement Danes on the Strand, London.
He devotes considerable effort to research for historical or modern commissions as he endeavors to be as technically accurate as possible. Preparatory work often finds him spending time armed with a sketchbook and camera on a variety of coastal and deep sea craft, including lifeboats. Research for a recently completed period painting necessitated many hours of scanning through periodicals and newspapers of local shipping events in the 1800's.
Patrick and his wife divide their time between Kent and Boulogne, in northern France, renowned for its deep sea-fishing fleet and rich maritime heritage.

This is in regard to the matter of Lincoln Police and Fire Mid-Management Supervisory Bargaining Unit.
I just wonder why (Lincoln Councilman) Gabriel Hydrick was the lone dissenting vote (Nov. 15 News Messenger front page, "Public safety package approved").
The bargaining unit negotiated what they thought was their best shot. When the other units starting mediating, the negotiator representing the city of Lincoln should have followed that example to negotiate the other four bargaining units but he didn't. He did a very poor job of representing the city and the council should never have caved into those demands, they should have sent the negotiator back to the table.
But they voted yes! With the lone vote of no coming from Gabriel Hydrick! Did the council even figure out where this money would come from??
The mid-management supervisor unit understood the city didn't have the money but since the other four units got it, they figured, well we should get it too. Sounds like sibling revelry to me. And they did get it. That is a 4.95 percent pay increase. Who gets pay increases in this economy? I guess the answer is the city of Lincoln! Council, it is your job to say no. Please join Gabriel Hydrick in watching out for our money!

Amazing Infographic Shows Where the World's Greenhouse Gases Come From
Posted By Timon Singh On June 11, 2013 @ 1:00 pm In Environment,global warming,Green Graphics & Packaging,Innovation,News | 2 Comments
It's hard to keep track of all the greenhouse gases [1] that are steadily collecting in the atmosphere – from auto emissions [2] and coal plants [3] to methane emissions [4] from cattle and landfills. Fortunately, Ecofys [5] has created an easy-to-understand infographic [6] that breaks down the source and sector of the world's largest greenhouse gas emitters.
Photo via Shutterstock [7]
Ecofys [5]' infographic shows that many sources of greenhouse gas emissions can be reduced if the world's governments decide to take energy conservation and renewable energy [8] seriously. One of the biggest culprits is global coal use, which is still strong in the US, China and several developing countries, which utilize it for steel production. If renewable energy funding increases, then clean alternatives like wind and solar power will help to lessen this footprint. Scientists and inventors around the world are also working to mitigate the other major sources, which include deforestation [9], building emissions [10], methane waste [11] and fossil fuel-powered transportation [12].

Big Bold Unabashed Color
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
Big Bold Color. It demands space to empower a room. These stunning examples of large splashes of pigment speak to simple gestures, not letting the space get too busy but rather placing sculptural, singular elements of focus in the room. So dramatic, and full of energy. Notice how the floors are used in this color scheme? All planes (walls, ceiling and floor) play off each other to become part of the composition. These spaces work so well because the saturation of hues are balanced.
"Designed by Gisbert Pöppler, The Hansaviertel Project is a full renovation of a private apartment owned by a prominent writer for the popular German television show "Verliebt in Berlin". The property is tucked in the corner of a large modern apartment building, designed by Walter Gropius for the 1957 Interntational Building Exhibition, "Interbau". As if intentionally planned to coincide with this important milestone, the renovation was completed just in time to celebrate the 90th year anniversary of this now classic modernist BAUHAUS experiment in urban living." architectonic

DIY Wall Art
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
I am a huge fan of displaying everyday objects in our living spaces. This creative, colorful and stunning presentation of colored pencils is Art. Organized in gradation of hue, the color blocking paired with the linear and repetitive nature of the material creates a unique and useful focal point for the room. Easy to make and install, and one less thing to store in the closet. An all around great idea.

DIY Spring Inspiration
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
The promise of spring and the color of the season is beginning to poke through the remaining blanket of snow. The vibrant tulip fields are a welcome image and inspiration, reminding me to bring color and texture indoors as well. This interior artwork is a great example of positioning a colorful display as the primary focus in a room. Demanding attention, and filing the space with energy, I love the the way this room reads. The furniture remains neutral, allowing the walls to change, creating a dramatic impact on the design. This composition could be easily created with painted cardboard boxes, mounted on a series of panels. Easy to install and remove on a whim with the change of seasons.

Color Block
Posted by Cynthia | Filed under Musings
A startling display of color. This Spanish building demands the attention of the passerby as it jumps out from its neutral surroundings. Although the use of Color Blocking is visible in modern day architecture, the use of bold blocks of color is not new. Take the groundbreaking example of the work of Charles and Ray Eames below. The Eames House, also known as Case Study House No. 8, is a landmark of mid-20th century modern architecture. It was constructed in 1949 by husband-and-wife design pioneers Charles and Ray Eames to serve as their home and studio.
Similarly, these two examples express their modularity and create a dynamic visual punch. Of late, it's a colorful modern expression being seen all the world around.

The Effect of Women's Anger on Men
Anger isn't often righteous, it's usually stupid, petty and irrational. If one feels angry all the time, or bordering on being angry all the time, then one is teetering on the edge of constant irrationality. If that's not enough to give you pause about giving into anger at every opportunity or even glorying in it, well, there's not much point in attempting to speak reason to you, is there, since you're nothing but an irrational creature capable of nothing but being emotionally manipulated.
And living in fear of such a one is rather like being a well-trained dog. Face the fear, let the anger come and then note how little effect it has on you once the shouting is done. And once the angry realize how little effect their anger has on you, they'll either cut it out or their passive hatred for you will go active. Either way, you'll be much better off.
I understand Vox's disgust with anger and irrationality and his subsequent advice for men--just face the anger, which is certainly better than being afraid of it. I have certainly seen men who are so afraid of a woman's anger that they will "Yes, dear" her to death. Bad move--it teaches the woman nothing about how to control or constructively use her anger--and reinforces her anger which, in turn, will ensure that she will do it again. What an unpleasant dynamic.
But I don't agree with much of what Vox says. Anger is not always stupid, petty and irrational; sometimes it is a legitimate response, a way to tell us that something is wrong or that we need to become more aware of what we are feeling and why. Women are not irrational creatures, but actually very rational at times and their angry behavior, even in a passive aggressive form, is not always about being emotionally manipulated.
It is often about not understanding how to display anger in a constructive way--instead they often react by being passive aggressive, which is a tool of emotional manipulation against others, not necessarily against oneself. In passive aggressiveness, a woman can get back at her object of anger, yet psychologically avoid responsibility. It is not an irrational strategy, only a sometimes ineffective and psychologically helpless one. Also, does women's anger really have no effect on men? To say it does not seems to me to be a cop-out. One that makes sense, of course, but a cop-out nonetheless.
Which brings up my next question; the real point of this post is just kind of wondering aloud to myself and my readers: what is the effect of women's anger, both directly and indirectly on men and their later emotional well-being? We ask so many times how anger is felt by women or how women are affected by men's anger or the anger of other women, but I would really like to know how angry women affect men. It's always funny in our culture to see women lash out angrily at men, hit them, call them names and act in passive aggressive forms towards kids, husbands and male colleagues, and many men take the abuse, but at what cost? Does the anger of women toward the male sex and males in general effect the male psyche and in what way?
If you are male and have had an experience with women and anger, either with family members, female colleagues, or others, what was the emotional toll on you or was there one? I would love to hear from you, either in the comments or by email.

Writers! Time to judge a "clever" long copy ad.
This ad for book and films shop Papercut was written by DDB Stockholm copywriter Magnus Jakobsson. He writes all the Papercut ads, and he writes them in this...breaking the 4th wall (or is it the 3rd or 5th wall?) style. I've mocked two of his previous Papercut ads (here and here). Unlike me, Magnus is thick-skinned and good-natured, and took my mostly fake-harsh words well. (here's his reply.) So: what do you wordsmithies think?

The University of Houston signee and St. Louis Cardinals draft pick will sign with the major-league team. The Cardinals drafted him in the third round of the major-league baseball draft in June.
KRIV-TV first reported McElroy's decision, and University of Houston officials confirmed it Tuesday.
The 5-foot-10 McElroy played center field for Clear Creek High School. He hit .488 with five homers, 20 RBI and stole a school-record 33 bases as a senior.
McElroy's father, Chuck, played in the major leagues from 1989-2001.
