1. TCU (No. 28 in U.S.)
26 signees 25 HS, 1 JC
Fortunately for the rest of the MWC, most of the new Horned Frogs won't play until the Rose Bowl champions move to the Big East in 2012. Keep an eye out for LaDarius Brown, ranked by Rivals.com as the fourth-best athlete nationally. Gary Patterson landed the only two four-star rankings in the league.
19 signees: 18 HS, 1 JC
The Broncos never get the love on signing day, then contend for the top 10 on the field annually. The MWC newcomers have 11 Rivals.com 3-stars, led by Jimmy Laughrea, the 18th-ranked dual- threat QB.
23 signees: 23 HS
Rocky Long held on to the class after half the staff left for Michigan with Brady Hoke. As usual, SDSU did well at a key position, landing Micah Jeffries, ranked 10th nationally for pro-style QBs. Boasts 13 three-stars as Aztecs look to fill the Utah/BYU void.
26 signees: 25 HS, 1JC
Solid running back and defensive line class.
24 signees: 20 HS, 4 JC
Look for Adam Pittser, a three- star QB from Illinois, to step in after the abrupt departure of two-year starter Austyn Carta- Samuels. Cowboys scored a coup in Colorado with Rangeview's Eddie Yarbrough, the 31st-ranked linebacker nationally.
23 signees: 15 HS, 8 JC
Is second-year coach Bobby Hauck already hitting the panic button by going the juco route? QB of note Nick Sherry originally was a Colorado commitment.
19 signees: 14 HS, 5 JC
Lobos coach Mike Locksley, who has won two games in two seasons, still has contacts for D.C.- area talent.
Because of the academy appointment process, names of recruited athletes are not released until they arrive on campus this summer. Potential recruits sign a certificate of intent, which is a nonbinding agreement that signifies an athlete's commitment to follow through with the appointment process.

The other thread made me think of all the discussions and forums I've read about gender disappointment, and it seems like usually, it's disappointment about having a boy instead of a girl. There's a recent article I can't find right now about a clinic that specializes in gender selection, and the doctor said that 80% of the couples are selecting for girls. I thought it was interesting considering how in some other cultures, it's boys who are highly desired.
Why do you think this is, that a daughter is wanted so badly? I've read various explanations/theories but am curious to see what ya'll think, along with those who have felt this way and can share their insights.

TCL > October 1998 Issue > Voting "No" On Judges = No Justice
No, Boss, that isn't the way we do it!
It's Disturbing
In 1996, did you notice those yard signs popping up like late summer dandelions? Their message: VOTE "NO" ON ALL JUDGES. If this happens in 1998, please don't just drive by, cuss under your breath, change the radio station, and forget them. Very few people understand how judges are selected and retained. In an earlier article,1 I told the story of the judge whose nephew, voting for the first time, proudly told him that he voted for him and against all those other judges. We, as lawyers, have to explain over and over to everyone we know, including our friends and family, how our system works. What is even scarier is the story I heard a few weeks ago wherein a respected lawyer with a well-known firm said, "I always go in the voting booth and vote 'no' on all the judges, just to keep them honest."
The number of voters who vote "no" on all judges is increasing. In 1980, I was a member of a CBA Judiciary Committee. We took it for granted that 20 percent of the electorate automatically vote "no" on all issues, including the retention of judges. The average retention rating for a judge at that time was 80 percent. We became concerned in 1992 when the percentage dropped to between 72 and 74 percent. Based on the 1996 election, we have an even greater concern in that, in the Denver metropolitan area and at the Supreme Court and Court of Appeals levels, no judge or justice running for retention received greater than a 65 percent affirmative vote. The percentage had dropped by approximately 8 percent in a four-year period. This means that an individual judge who failed in a bid for retention was not voted out by greater than 50 percent of the vote, but by 15 percent of the available 65 percent. It also means that we are getting closer and closer to a time when that percentage may fall under 60 percent, and possibly under 50 percent. If this happens, it would mean that a judge who is not retained would not be voted out based on his or her lack of merit. The thought is really scary.
The concept of voting "no" on all judges for whatever reason destroys the very basis of our retention system. Most of our judges do a superb job—they are conscientious and work very hard. To vote those judges out indiscriminately, along with those judges whom the public really wants out, debases the retention system. To lose some of our competent judges based on an unthinking negative vote makes no sense.
Retired District Court Judge Bob Fullerton followed a practice of asking jurors why they vote "no" on either all or some judges. The responses he received were: (1) they vote "no" when they are not adequately informed; (2) dissatisfaction with the judicial system; (3) the fact that judges aren't tough enough in sentencing; (4) they are unhappy with large verdicts; and (5) like the aforementioned lawyer, they vote "no" to "keep judges on their toes."
What Can the Bar Do?
What can we, as a Bar, do about it? First, we can talk about the system and urge people to, of all things, discriminate. Remind your neighbors that the Blue Book sent to all voters before the election will contain the Performance Commission ratings, and, thus, voters will be given pertinent information on which to base their choices. There will be articles in the newspaper. Take any opportunity you can to spread the word, and do it in terms that people can understand. Participate in the speaker's bureau that encourages members of the Bar to talk to various civic and religious organizations.2
Judges can participate in the process by making themselves more visible and letting the public see them as they really are. They can point out, as can the Bar, the misconceptions that exist in the public's mind, i.e., that the judges are responsible for large verdicts (in fact, judges act as a restraint on large verdicts in the form of remittitur, citing the MacDonald's case as an example), that there are other methods of keeping judges on their toes rather than an across-the-board "no" vote, and educating the public as to the factors that go into the criminal sentencing process. All of us, collectively, need to get the word out so that a judge is rated on his or her individual merit, rather than generically grouping judges based on uninformed judgments. We must foster an informed electorate. It is only by taking an active role in the judicial retention process that we can ensure the continuance of the high quality of our judicial system.

Make sure it's set to "relative" or whatever. and the width should be about 800. Somewhere in that range is good.
Generally, I use 800 x 1030. But it doesn't have to be exact. It all depends on what you draw on too.

The former Arleta Library, known as the Wikman Building, moved one step closer to disposition today as the county re-opened the property for potential sale to a private developer.
By a 5-0 vote, the Multnomah County Commission moved to reissue a Request for Proposals (RFP) for the property. Although the terms of the RFP have not yet been determined, demolition and/or redevelopment remain in play.
The 1918 building was an original Carnegie library and was built on property purchased with contributions from local residents.
When the current library branch at 79th and Holgate opened in the 70s, the title to the old library was transferred to Multnomah County for $1. Since then, the county has used it for various purposes, including most recently as their Juvenile Justice Center.
For more than two years, local neighborhoods have worked with ROSE Community Development to create a plan that would preserve the building and continue it in some kind of public use. Lack of onsite parking has been an obstacle for most uses of the property.
At today's hearing, Commissioner Judy Shiprack described her "triple aim" for the property, which she described as "receiving the appraised market value, keeping the historic nature of the building, in other words not selling it to a developer who would scrape it and build high-density apartments or other uses that would not be positive, and also to keep a public access, public use for the building."
But clearly, the county's primary interest is in selling the property, which has been assessed at $260,000. The county spends approximately $30,000 per year to maintain the empty building.
Various public forums over the last two years have identified community uses such as an Arts Center or small business incubator as the local preference for the building's future.
Those plans would require local fundraising to cover the purchase of the property, rehabilitation costs and eventual operating expenses.
Commissioner Shiprack and county staff acknowledged the significant groundwork laid by ROSE in particular, who voluntarily shared their predevelopment and rehabilitation work with the county so that it can be used to inform their future discussions of the property.
County facilities manager Mike Sublette described the county's next steps, which include an open forum early next month to get input on the terms of the RFP, with selection of the winning proposal this spring and sale of the property as soon as this summer.
He also indicated that he hoped to create a scoring committee for assessing the RFPs, and that he'd like to include members of the public as well as someone with expertise in redeveloping historic properties.

Residents oppose Frog Hollow Road project
Friday, August 23, 2013
Climbing costs and other concerns are leading some residents to ask the city to reconsider the Frog Hollow Road project.
At the Jefferson City Public Works and Planning Committee on Thursday, Bill Ratliff spoke against the planned project, voicing a number of concerns and noting "there's a lot we don't know" about the project.
Ratliff, who owns a property on Frog Hollow Road, said the cost has increased on the project, which has caused no one to reconsider.
"Nobody is even blinking at the cost of this project," Ratliff said.
The estimated cost for the project, which will widen Frog Hollow Road and add access from Creek Trail Drive and Frog Hollow to Mission Drive, is nearly $3.5 million. The project is a cooperative venture between Jefferson City and Cole County governments.
In December 2012, it was announced that the Frog Hollow project would change the alignment of the road near Tanglewood Drive to soften what is now a sharp curve. The project begins at Edgewood Drive, where Frog Hollow Road will be widened, and curbs, gutters and sidewalks will be added. The main part of the project is to replace two old, narrow bridges on Frog Hollow Road over Wears Creek.
The streets project also will extend Creek Trail Drive to meet up with Frog Hollow Road and create a new intersection.
Ultimately, Frog Hollow Road will connect to the roundabout on Mission Drive, just north of the new St. Mary's Health Center already being built and scheduled to open in 2015.
Ratliff, who attended the meeting with several other nearby residents, said the road was going to be moved onto his property, along with a sidewalk he said nobody wants and he would be responsible for.
Interim Public Works Director Matt Morasch said the city has received both positive and negative feedback on the project, which is slated to start construction in the spring as long as the city can get the needed right-of-ways.
"We're trying to upgrade this roadway to more of a city standard," Morasch said.
Ratliff urged committee members to reconsider the project before it begins.
"It's hard to fight City Hall," Ratliff said. "Do we really need this at this time? ... We hope you'll say no."

I can t say I know exactly what you're going through but I know its a struggle and i'm 20. and those who try to talk down to you, ignore them cause at the end of the day though the sex may have been a mistake but your child isn't. every child is a blessing. so with that being said keep your head up and don't let peoples words bring you down cause you are your babys hero and you are everything to her and shes going to love you no matter what.posted 05/23/2013 by Mykahsmommi
hello again and yes that's what I want to do and be a good role model and well if you give me your email I can message you my information?posted 05/24/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
Its not a problem. I know what its like to struggle and want so much more for your child. at this point you finish school and do what you gotta do to give your daughter the best life possible, like I say again she looks up you and you are her hero. let me know where to send them I will. preferably a post office cause you don't want your info out on the internet.posted 05/24/2013 by Mykahsmommi

I do g t school infact I will be graduating next year a year earlyposted 05/15/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
Call around to churches in your area. Alot of them give out free clothes or know who does. Also, food banks are good places to call because they know where all the free clothes are. I am sorry I can't send you any as I have all boys. Womens care center, Wic office, Pregnancy help centers, salvation army, homes for unwed mothers are also places you can ask. Not to be nosey, but why did your mother move and leave you behind? Are you living with you bf? There isn't a snowball chance in h*ll that I would leave my juvienille daughter. It isn't even considered legal and she is still respondsible for you. Good luck, and many blessings.posted 05/14/2013 by sisxs3
I feel sorry for your baby. This is exactly why teen moms shouldn't have babies. They can't provide for themselves. How dare your parents leave you. You and your baby are their responsibility. I would never allow my child to be away with a newborn. You shouldn't be looking for a job. Just try public assistance. Go back to school do something with your life. You are the role model for your child so do something good.posted 05/15/2013 by a BabyCenter Member
So public assistance is being a good role model? She should call child protective and find a good foster care for herself and her child. It is criminal to leave your child at 16 years old to fend for themselves. If you do not have a secure living arrangement, then foster care would be better. You could finish high school, have a family enviroment, and people who are invested in your success.posted 05/15/2013 by a BabyCenter Member

Job No. 1 for New Microsoft CEO: Fix Mobile and Windows Business
Fixing Microsoft's weak mobile business will be Satya Nadella's top job as Microsoft's new CEO.
Microsoft has already taken a number of steps in this direction — putting one person in charge of Windows and Windows Phone, moving the two operating systems to a common core and, of course, announcing the big Nokia purchase.
But that's just the beginning.
For all the effort Microsoft has invested into Windows Phone over the past couple of years, its global market share remains in the single digits and it continues to be an afterthought for most mobile developers who are focused instead on iOS and Android.
Even on Microsoft's traditional home turf of the PC, the company faces increasing pressure. The Mac has been gaining share for years now and Google has started to make some inroads with Chromebooks, especially with schools and businesses.
"There's a challenge in mobile computing," Bill Gates acknowledged in a video released on Tuesday.
None of these issues are new for Microsoft. Terry Myerson, who led the Windows Phone efforts, has been in charge of both the phone and PC businesses since a reorganization last year and has been focused on creating a plan to address these challenges.
It will be very interesting to see what Microsoft has to say in April when it holds its Build developer conference in San Francisco, where the company typically talks about the future of its operating systems and where it wants Windows to go.
For the moment, Microsoft has three mobile and PC operating systems: Windows Phone, Windows RT and Windows 8. Windows devices executive Julie Larson-Green made comments last year that were widely interpreted to mean that even Microsoft thinks that is too many flavors.
Windows 8 runs on traditional PC processors while both Windows RT and Windows Phone can run on the kinds of ARM-based chips typically used in phones and tablets. Windows RT, which is used on Microsoft's Surface and Nokia's Lumia 2520 tablets, has been poorly received in the market and can only run the kinds of new-style Windows apps that debuted with Windows 8.
Windows Phone, meanwhile, has won critical praise, but lacks the scale to attract full attention from developers. Consolidating the mobile operating systems could make the combined platform more attractive to developers.
Nadella, meanwhile, is also about to inherit the challenge of integrating Nokia's phone business into the company. With Nokia, Microsoft will gain a whole lot of experience making and selling phones. It also has the opportunity to more tightly integrate its hardware and software efforts.
However, Microsoft appears not to want to go too far in that direction, insisting it needs and wants support from other phone makers. It remains to be seen how appealing that is to phone makers such as Samsung, HTC, Sony, Huawei and ZTE. Microsoft rival Google, for instance, is in the process of jettisoning its phone hardware business Motorola.
The most important task for Nadella, Myerson and the rest of the Microsoft team is to once again create software and devices that consumers, and not just IT administrators, actually want to buy.

Thanks to the chemistry of our writers and the magic of the internet, readers might not realize that CliqueClack isn't based in just one city. In fact, except for Keith and Deb (spouses), Deb and Bob (siblings) and a handful Clackers on the east coast (who I've been assured talk about the rest of us), the majority of the CliqueClack crew members have never met each other in person.
This is why, when our very own Jay Black mentioned to me a few weeks ago that he'd be in Fort Wayne (a few hours from my house) for his stand-up tour this past weekend, I didn't hesitate in accepting his invitation. Even if the universe imploded from the two of us being in the same room, I knew I couldn't pass up the opportunity to meet one of my fellow Clackers.
Jay and I talk on Twitter all the time (@jayblackcomedy and @justplaintweets), so meeting each other in person wasn't as awkward as it could have been. He and I got along swimmingly. We talked about the normal stuff — Star Wars … sexy girlnerds … Bronson Pinchot's role on Step by Step … the slow, unabiding march to death that is life itself. You know, the basics. Sometime in the middle of our conversations throughout the night, I realized that even after the night was over, Jay and I would be continuing these discussions online as if nothing had changed. My Little Pony is right — friendship is magic.
Now, he wasn't just in Indiana to see me; he was performing at Snickerz Comedy Club, with Zach Rody and Matt Bergman as the opening acts (who were both very funny). I'll be honest — just like I was with Jay after the show — I wasn't sure what Jay would be like on stage. I was completely prepared to give Jay some gentle, polite comments: "It was really interesting," "You know, the acoustics were really off," etc. (Jay suggested, "You look really comfortable on stage," when I mentioned this after the show). Luckily, I didn't have to use these because he was great! Did you guys know Jay Black is actually hilarious?
Jay was expecting the first show to be the less rowdy/drunk crowd, but he couldn't have been more wrong. Thanks to a woman celebrating her birthday, her date/someone she picked up at the bus stop was completely wasted by the time Jay got on stage. The man had the word "Redneck" tattooed on his torso and pulled up his wifebeater to show Jay. Jay took it in stride and ended up making it still pretty funny (how can you not respond to that?), but he was pretty bummed that I didn't get to see his full routine because of the distraction. So … I stayed for the second show. And it was fun to see him not have to deal with the drunk redneck … although one audience member shouted out the details of his wife's lactation (I really wish I was making that up). My favorite part of the second show is when he talked to me for a moment from the stage without any explanation to the audience. Oh, and the oral sex jokes were funny, too.
We got to talk and drink after the show, but since the club's drinks were pretty damn weak and Jay had unlimited free drinks for being "the Talent," he got to partake in more of the happy juice than yours truly. Jay was a sweetheart and bought both me and my boyfriend a drink, but I was still pretty much sober. Of course, if I was sober and still laughed at Jay's act he must be really funny, right? We had so much fun that I ended up staying up in Fort Wayne a few hours longer than I had planned. I got home late at night/early in the morning, exhausted but very happy about the whole evening.
So, what have we learned today, children? For one, the universe will (in theory) remain intact even when badass bloggers meet each other in person. For another, Jay Black is fucking hilarious. The Podclack — like porn — is online, free and highly enjoyable in itself, but if you ever have the opportunity to see him perform in person, I would highly suggest you do so. And let him know the weird ladynerd sent you.
I won tickets for Snickerz this passed weekend. My husband and I were so glad that we did not pass on these tickets! We were there Saturday evening and his show was with out a doubt the BEST we have seen yet!! We had a great time!!
Jay's shows are fantastic… I agree! So glad you got to meet the real deal and didn't have to continue judging him solely on the Raunchy (yet sometimes delightful) podclack. Then again Jay is raunchy and delightful in person as well. Hopefully Jay's schedule will open up so we can do some summertime podclacks!

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Earnings volatility began in afterhours trading on Oct. 28 when Apple (AAPL - Get Report) beat EPS estimates but traded down to my annual pivot at $510.64 as some analysts nitpicked some details of the report. Then on Wednesday in afterhours trading Facebook (FB - Get Report) spiked to my weekly risky level at $57.65, but this pop would not be sustained as the company reported lower use of the social network by teenagers.On Oct. 28 I wrote A Closer Look at Apple, Google and 5 Really Big Stocks Over $200 where I provided my buy-and-trade guidelines for seven popular stocks that trade above $200 a share.

Employee Assistance Programme What's New this month?
The Partnership Group began investigating the possibility of providing staff with an employee Assistance Programme in June 1999. As a starting point the Group agreed the Policy and Procedure for the Employee Assistance Programme and it was agreed that an external service provider would be preferable to internal provision for an Employee Assistance Programme.
We have recently reviewed our Employee Assistance Programme and have decided to change our provider to EAP Consultants with effect from 1st March 2014. The Employee Assistance Programme (EAP) provides free and confidential professional counselling and information services which are available to all employees of National University of Ireland, Galway and members of their families/households. The service is provided by EAP Consultants, a firm of external consultants who operate independently of management. The EAP offers help in the following areas:

36 weeks and cramping
I'm 36 weeks and 3 days. I had a ton of contractions on Friday the 28th and then yesterday morning I had quite a few. Some were 10 min apart and lasting for a couple of minutes. This morning, I'm having period like cramping on top of constipation like cramping but I know I'm not constipated because I went yesterday. Which is also something weird that's never happened, I've went poop the last 3 days when my regular cycle is like every 2 days. I also noticed that my discharge is very runny like water almost but with somewhat of a consistancy of an egg white when you first crack an egg. I noticed some globs of mucas plug this morning too. I guess my question is, is labor approaching? I'm supposed to go out of state this weekend (just a few hours away) but I didn't want to take the chance of going into labor there. I have my weekly appointment on Friday before the trip. What are your alls opinions? Thanks! I've also had some nausea.

How can we prepare our toddler for a sibling?
I have a 20-month-old daughter and I'm pregnant with our second child. Everyone asks if we've told our daughter about the new arrival, but I just don't know how to explain it to her. We point out babies and talk to her about them, but she's just too young to understand. Any ideas on how we can prepare her for a sibling?

I would have to say I agree with all the women, I think the introduction of a new sibling is very important, my daughter was two when her sister arrived and we just didn't bring the baby home she was at a neighbors house and she came to the hospital the following day and I inroduced her to her sister name by name and she held her kissed her and song to her, and as far as a big helper let them help my daughter did and was a big help with bath time and diaper changing, and we have even done the next big step with the newest member of the family coming, I put my oldest daughter in her own room to make her feel like a real big girl and the little and the baby will share a room to give the baby a chance to feel like a big sister, and yes they rub my belly and kiss and talk to the baby so they are aware that something is inside but just can't wait till it comes out so we are all excited, the sex is still undertermined but we are so hoping for a boy, but we shall see...posted 05/03/2004 by preciouskisses
I have a 15 mth old and am due in 10 weeks with my second (both girls). Ever since I found out I was pregnant, I started reading to my daughter about being a big sister. I'd point to my belly and say baby, and now that we know what we are having, we try to use the new baby's name, whenever we talk about her, so that "Big Sister" can get used to it. She now pulls up my shirt and says baby, gives my belly kisses, hugs, and raspberries. She is going to be a great big sister.posted 05/03/2004 by laurtho
We have a 19-month old son and have a baby girl due in a little over a month. I just kept talking to my son about the baby in my belly and how she's growing and how she will be coming out soon so we can finally meet her, and though he's young he seems to be excited about what's going to happen. He likes me to draw pictures of our family for him and now wants me to include a drawing of "Sosie" (Sofia) when I make one. I found it helpful to show him real pictures of babies in books and talk about how they cry and nurse alot and how we need to be very gentle with them. I also make sure to tell him how much we love him and will always love him no matter what. My son loves to help me with little chores around the house, like putting his clothes in the hamper and getting out or putting his books away and I try to encourage that behavior right now with lots of praise and tell him what a great helper he will be with the baby. Regardless of what you think your child will be able to understand about the new arrival, I think it's helpful to talk about these things regularly so at the very least your daughter knows to expect some sort of change, though there is little way of telling how she will react when the baby is actually born. I got a great book out of the library called "The New Baby at Your House" and it has pictures of babies and talks about what they look like and do and how it's okay to have a lot of different feelings toward the new baby. I actually didn't think my son would be old enough for it and it was kind of a long book for a 1 1/2 year old, but he would sit through the whole thing, pointing at the pictures of babies, especially the ones crying! (He seemed very concerned for them) Also make sure your daughter knows you're going to have to go to the hospital for a bit and make sure whoever is staying with her knows her routine well. We had my mother spend almost a week with us recently so she could really get a handle on my son's daily routines and activities and now he's very excited to have his "MM" come to visit while we're away. Good luck!posted 04/13/2004 by kbawlz
My daughter turned three when I found out I was pregnant with my second. I am now 15 weeks and my daughter tells people we are expecting a new baby. She has always loved little babies. I think the most important thing to do is explain to them that there is going to be a new baby coming....they understand more than some people give young kids credit. My daughter love to watch a baby story even though she always says the mommy has a tummy ache. So far I've learned that even though we may think they are too young to understand the concept of a baby...they do. I've found out buying some books that show how you take care of a newborn helps them to understand. She grabs her baby doll and rocks her and feeds her a bottle like they show in the book. I wish eveyone the best of luck!!posted 02/18/2004 by SarahBug
I have a 16 month old daughter and now I have a new baby girl. We did no preparation with her on the arrival of her sister because we felt she was to young to understand throughout the pregnancy. She was only 6 months old when we got pregnant. One thing we did do when her sister was born was give her a baby doll of her own. We definately deal with bouts of jealousy (temper tantrums are regular in our house now.) When she starts to act out because I am nursing the baby and not playing with her, I tell her to go get her baby.(She also has a PlaySchool nursery set with a crib, highchair and changing table) She enjoys that and it controls her tantrums somewhat. Try to include her in changing and bathing the baby. Have them bring you the diapers or stand on a chair next to the sink when you bath the baby. It makes them feel special and helpful.posted 11/01/2003 by kriskoc
I realize that the original post is several years old, but perhaps there are still those out there that might be wondering the same thing! I am currently 5 months pregnant with my second child; my son is currently 22 months. I do worry a little that he'll be jealous, but the most common response to this concern that I've received is "Jealousy is normal...just be sure to make special time for your first-born and it will all be okay." We're currently teaching our son that there is a baby in mama's belly. I'll say, "Where is mama's baby?" and he'll point to my belly. Lately, he likes to play peeks with my belly and kiss the baby--he thinks it's hilarious! In addition, we have two nephews that are younger than he is. He is so sweet with them, always giving them hugs and kisses. The way I see it, the more exposure he has to younger babies, the better! Of course, I won't be able to know whether or not these practices worked until after our 2nd son is born, but I'll keep you all posted.posted 12/18/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
I did the following with our 1 1/2 year old daughter for 1/2 a year before her baby brother was born: - showed her pictures of herself when she was a baby and how much she had grown up - read (daily, usually several times)_I'm a big sister now_ and the baby einstein board book _babies_ - talked a lot about what babies were like (don't talk, cry a lot, sleep a lot, take a lot our time, and we need big sister to help) - emphasized that this was OUR baby, and how much she would love it - bought her a baby doll with bottle to feed it (didn't show much interest) - despite concerns, we specficially never talked as if we were worried about her reaction to the new baby, especially in front of her, we acted as if it was the most natural thing in the world for her to love andthe new one - told her that we were having a new baby so that SHE could have a brother or sister, and that this brother or sister would be for her to take care of/love They are now 3 1/2 & 1 1/2 and are very close!posted 12/14/2009 by charms_
Our son is 19 months old and our new baby is due 11 days after his 2nd birthday. We started very early explaining to him that "he" is going to have a new baby and how exciting it will be. I let him touch my belly and he will give baby kisses and hugs. We have even given him two baby dolls to play with, and he took to them very well. He will even give the doll HIS blankey to wrap up in. We all can't wait for the new baby, even though we are preparing him we know it will be very hard for him also. I suggest the dolls and introducing your daughter to your tummy, include her in everything you possibly can for the new baby.posted 12/28/2008 by a_victoria77

Shooting during the "golden hours" - The hour after sunrise and the hour before sunset are considered the golden or magic hours! At these times the sun is low in the sky creating a soft diffused light. Shoot continuously during this time as the light drastically changes by the minute.
Play around using the sun as a rim light, shooting into the sun for lens flare, or capturing the shapes that silhouettes create. Pay attention to the ground too, as this is when shadows are long and interesting.
You can easily track the sunrise/sunset times daily on weather.com!
Continuous or Burst Mode - This is a great function that both DSLRs and most point-and-shoots have. It makes the camera take several shots in a row as you hold down or release the shutter. This function is especially useful for capturing fast pace sports. Start clicking when your child is about to be in action and you will have a higher chance of capturing the perfect action shot.
Use this technique to create a series of expressions your child makes and display them in a gallery side by side. This is a cute way to document your child cracking up at a joke you told, or the process (and meltdown) of getting told "no!"
Keep in mind that this mode will fill up your memory card and drain your battery a bit quicker so be sure to have extras!
Freelensing - This is a fun (and inexpensive) way to turn a standard 50mm into a tilt shift or macro lens. It involves a little risk as you detach your lens from your camera and hold it out in front of the sensor, but it creates such dreamy and artsy images. This type of shooting and focusing can take a bit to get used to, but the mistakes created with freelensing are what make the images so unique.
If you are trying to capture something motionless, you can attach your camera to a tripod to give yourself an extra hand when focusing!
I hope that these tips inspire you to create amazing shots of your own children!

Many of us have heard about, in some way have an opinion on, or have commented on the rape case in Steubenville, OH where two young men were just sentenced to at least one and two years in the juvenile detention facility for the rape of a classmate. Investigators put together what happened that night through a series of text messages; painting a scene that should give all of us pause and challenge us as parents and community members about the conversations we are having and not having with our kids.
We live in a world that is too often preparing the worst and not the best for our children. This incident in Ohio speaks to parenting issues, abuse of alcohol, valuing athletes over morality, the use of social media, sexual abuse, and the inability to be unpopular and right. How do we talk to our children to prepare them to not just survive but thrive in a world that has traps around every corner?
1. Be more afraid of your kids being un-equipped than you are of the issues that make you uncomfortable. They are going to get if they don't already have bad information about stuff your afraid to discuss. Make sure they have good information to balance the foolishness they get from everywhere else.
2. Be more proactive, finding consistent spaces to have conversations about sex, alcohol, friend's behavior, relationships, and social media vs. reacting to stories on the news or actions from your kids.
3. Tag team em'. Raising healthy kids is not something you can do successfully alone. Single parents, this is not a jab. Even the best single parents know that the help of a teacher, aunt or uncle, family friend or other helps us get the messages into our kids heads that need to be there. They may not receive from me what they do from you.
4. Empower your girls to protect themselves AND not be predators. The young lady that was rapped was drunk to the point that she doesn't remember what happened to her. She should have never been in the position to be taken advantage of. While this doesn't excuse the brutality of these boys, lets prepare our daughters to not be physical or emotional victims without sending them out to take advantage of boys in the name of getting over.

Evercool HPL-815 and Transformer 3 Review
Reviewed by: airman
Reviewed on: October 20, 2011
Price: $29.99
Evercool is a very well-known manufacturer of computer/processor cooling products and has been for almost two decades. Since the days of the 386 processor, Evercool has been part of the game developing cooling for products for our beloved computers, keeping them cool and in good health. Since starting out in OEM coolers for Intel, Evercool progressed into developing its own product line for retail sales in the enthusiast market — how we know the company today. Since jumping into the retail side of things, Evercool now manufacturers not only CPU coolers and case fans, but also laptop cooling pads, fan filters, grills, and more. In this review, we will be taking a look at some of Evercool's latest additions to its product lineup.
The two heatsinks in the spotlight today are the Tranformer 3 and the low profile, super short HPL-815. Both coolers have completely separate features for two highly different needs, but that alone showcases the wide variety of coolers offered by Evercool. Surfing over to its website, you'll find these two coolers mixed in with a plethora of other coolers varying in size, shape, color, compatibility, and more. Many, like the HPL-315, are suited for use in 2U server cases, and more on top of those are suited for even 1U server boxes. The HPL-815 is a perfect fit for something in a small HTPC (Home Theater PC) or other tight spaces with someone who doesn't require a huge heat load from overclocking or extensive gaming. Small coolers can only be pushed so far, but they also have their advantages. On the other hand, the Transformer 3 is meant for heavy duty work. It employs three copper 6mm direct contact heatpipes on an aluminum, tower-style heatsink with a chromed-out fan. The plastic/chrome look reminds me of the T-1000 from the Terminator movies. It does appear that Evercool's naming scheme for the Transformer line pulled a bit of a "Star Wars", in which it started with number 4 and a 6 several years ago, and now we're down to 3. The numbers don't have anything to do with chronological order, but rather the amount of heatpipes on the product!
Anyways, enough of the silly anecdotes — it's time to get started on testing these two heatsinks. In this review, I will provide a full overview of the two Evercool heatsinks: the low profile, space-saving HPL-815, and the low-cost, performance-style Transformer 3. I will start with unboxing the heatsinks, taking a very close look at their features and construction, and then going through a rigorous testing session to see how they compare to some of the latest hardware when subjected to high heat loads. Without further ado, let's get started.
Closer Look:
The two coolers are packaged slightly differently from the other. The Transformer 3 is in a black cardboard box with a window on the front showing off the chrome, reflective fan and a little bit of the heatsink itself on the other side of the blades. The Evercool logo appears in the top-left corner and an isometric view of the cooler appears in the bottom right. The low profile, HPL-815 is packaged in a plastic clamshell-like package, with the black and red fan showing through on the front. The back of the HPL-815 is hidden behind a black piece of glossy paper giving an introduction to the cooler and lists some features.
The Transformer 3 cooler reminds me a lot of some other heatsinks that I have had my hands on, mainly due to its slender but tall form. It's only about 30-35mm thick without the fan, which is also slim for a fan at only about 15mm thick. Having such narrow dimensions this way, it will leave a lot of room around the CPU socket for access to memory, plugs, etc. Looking at the HPL-815, my first thoughts on this is that it's incredibly tiny! It wouldn't quite fit in a 1U setup, but I could see it working in a 1.5U and a 2U setup as well as in mini-ITX or micro-ATX form factor cases. Neither are supplied with a lot of accessories, but they are simple enough to not require a substantial amount of hardware. The mounting hardware between the two coolers are very similar, but not interchangeable. The Transformer 3's hardware includes a universal Intel bracket and supporting hardware, an AMD socket hold-down clamp and hardware, thermal paste, rubber fan clips and a user's manual. The HPL-815's hardware is the same, with both AMD and Intel hardware, thermal paste and user's manual, but doesn't include the rubber fan clips since the fan is already attached to the cooler. With both coolers out of the box, it's now time to take a closer look at the individual coolers and offer my thoughts on each.
Closer Look:
As I am taking a combined look at both of these coolers, I will take separate pictures of each cooler for clarity since they are not closely related in form or function since their purposes are widely different. I will keep explanations separate and in alternating order, but still on this same page. First up is the Transformer 3. As I pointed out on the introduction page, it is a rather slim but tall design. There are three, direct contact copper heatpipes that snake up from the base and up into the fins of the cooler in a V-shaped pattern. The V-shaped pattern helps increase airflow around all of the heatpipes, as other linear designs would cause the rear heatpipes to receive less airflow as they are blocked by the ones in front of it. At its worst,(from both ends of the mounting hardware) it stands at 78mm thick. Even with two fans on the cooler in push/pull, my math gives it an overall, thickest possible dimension at just under 95mm. While I'm on the topic of dimensions, the Transformer 3 stands at 130mm wide and 161mm tall and weighs in at 630 g. Already in place on the Transformer 3 is the Intel mounting hardware, which will save me a little bit of time with its installation since I won't have to fiddle with it.
Now moving onto the HPL-815, we find that there isn't any mounting stuff already attached, but the fan is already in place — as we found out by looking through the front of the package. The fan is held down by four wire clips which grab onto the standard holes in each corner of the fan and through holes going through the fins. At full attention, the HPL-815 measures in at less than 2" tall and weighs only a mind-blowing 320g. Even in its small form, it still manages to use four 6mm direct-contact heatpipes in a nicely-ground base. The fins have a raised pattern on them, which from a heat transfer perspective could increase the turbidity of the air flowing through the fins and raising the overall heat transfer coefficient. I truly can't see this feature adding a noticeable amount of performance increase to the cooler, but to each his/her own. I also will point out that with such a small size, I don't expect that this cooler will blow away a stock Intel unit, but I do believe that it will out-perform it on a load test. I don't know what will happen when it tries to deal with a highly overclocked i7, but we will find that out soon enough!
The Transformer 3's base is protected with a clear, plastic film with red lettering cautioning the user to remove it before use. It's only there to protect the integrity of the surface finish on the base, and will NOT help temperatures at all! For a sub-$30 cooler, I will admit that I expected less from the base of the Transformer 3. Not only is it machined to a smooth finish, the gaps between the heatpipes and the base itself are quite small. Typically with low-cost HDT (heatpipe direct touch) coolers, I'll find a poorly machined base and large gaps in the base — this was a relief and a nice surprise. The base is also noticeably flat as I can tell from the reflection is provides. It's not a mirror reflective shine, but it isn't "warpy" like a circus mirror would be. This points out that it is indeed flat. The other end of the interface is also quite good, being the area between the heatpipes and the upper side of the base. A lot of times they can be messily glued in place and not have a lot of good metal-to-metal surface area which is important for heat transfer. The heatpipes come out through both sides of the base and go up into the fins as I explained earlier. The ends of the heatpipes are capped off decoratively to excuse the shiny, aluminum/chrome look of the cooler from the generally "ugly" ends of a heatpipe.
On the HPL-815, I see similar machining and surface finish quality that I did with the Transformer 3. The difference is in the number of heatpipes, four here versus three on the Transformer 3 (hence the digit in its name) and the fact that the HPL-815's heatpipes terminate at the base and in the fins. We can assume that with the three heatpipes that have both ends going into the fins that it acts similarly to six heatpipes. The arrangement on the HPL-815 still remains as four effective heatpipes since only one end of each heatpipe end up in the fins.
I'm going to be rather blunt here and point out that even though the Evercool Transformer 3's fan is chrome and cool-looking in photographs, in person it's rather ugly. It's just cheap looking and reminds me of the cheap paint on play guns from the 80s that just begs to be flaked off at the slightest bit of scratch. Aside from that, it is a generic 120mm fan with a sleeved cable and 4-pin PWM connector that should be long enough to reach anywhere nearby. To mount the fan, four of the rubber clips are popped through the mounting holes on the fan, and the other ends slide in through the cutouts in the fins. I like metal clips better even though this method may be quieter, it can be very difficult to install/get the fan free from the heatsink while it's inside of the case. That's just a personal preference, but I'm sure a good bit of folks would agree with my feelings towards these rubber things.
Turning now towards the HPL-815's fan, we see that it is a tiny little 80mm fan that's black with red blades. I like the scheme of this fan a lot better than that of the Transformer 3's, despite the fact that I haven't seen an 80mm fan in probably 5 years. That aside, it's meant to be a small and compact cooler. Being as low-profile as it is, Evercool may have determined this to be the limitation on certain motherboards since it doesn't have the height to "tower" over memory modules, VRMs, etc. What we'll find with an 80mm fan is most likely a bit more noticeable noise level, but with PWM capabilities it should stay quiet most of the time. As I pointed out earlier, the fan is held on by metal clips on both sides. I like this a lot better than the rubber parts used on the Transformer 3 as they are easier to use when it comes to getting the fan on and off while the cooler is still inside of the case. With the fan removed, it's clear how short the physical cooler is by itself!
As I pointed out in the introduction while looking over the mounting hardware, the mounting methods for the two coolers are slightly different. For the Transformer 3, a jam nut is threaded onto a screw coming through the back side of the motherboard, separated by a plastic washer, onto which each baseleg of the Transformer 3 will be held by each of the four thumb screws. For the AMD crowd, the only thing needed is the crossbar that clamps onto the stock, plastic mounting bracket. No backplate is required for either. The HPL-815 actually works slightly opposite. The Intel folks will need to attach the Intel baselegs onto the cooler with the supplied screws, and secure the standoffs in each of the corners in the correct position depending on socket (775, 1156, 1336). No backplate is needed here on the HPL-815 either. Four screws will pass through the motherboard and into each of the standoffs on the four corners of the cooler and will be evenly tightened down. Although this method is cheap and simple, I've had past difficulties in getting having even pressure applied to the processor with these types of hold-down methods. I generally find one core (aka one corner) is upwards of 10°C higher than another, and that "hot spot" can be shifted around to different cores by changing the amount of tightness on each screw. Hopefully I won't run into that here, but I can almost always expect it compared to a sprung hold-down mechanism of higher-end coolers. First, I'll show the installation of the Transformer 3 with the motherboard inside of the case:
And now for the HPL-815:
Now having demonstrated the installation of both coolers, I will now share the manufacturer-provided specifications and features of each. Following that, stay tuned to see how these two coolers hold up to the OCC stress test in both stock and overclocked scenarios.

Testing and Setup:
Testing of these heatsinks will involve applying a load simulated by Prime95, using small FFTs in stock and overclocked scenarios, where both idle and load temperatures will be recorded. Load temperatures will be the maximum value displayed in RealTemp after running eight threads in Prime95 for one hour, and idle temperatures will be the minimum recorded value by RealTemp with no computer usage during a period of one hour. The temperature values for each of the four cores will be averaged and displayed in the graphs below. The ambient temperature is held at a constant 23 °C throughout testing of the Transformer 3, HPL-815, as well as the comparison units. All the data shown in the graphs below is in degrees Celsius. The included thermal paste from Evercool will be used during testing and thermal pastes on other heatsinks from their respective manufacturers will be used. The fans on each cooler will be run at full speed for these tests.
Testing Setup:
- Processor: Intel Core i7 920 - Stock and @ 3.44ghz, 1.27v
- Cooling: Evercool Transformer 3 and HPL-815
- Motherboard: MSI X58 Platinum SLI
- Memory: Mushkin Blackline PC3 16000 9-9-9-24 1600MHz
- Video Card: XFX HD6970 2GB
- Power Supply: Mushkin 1000 watt Joule Modular power supply
- Hard Drive: 1 x Seagate 1TB SATA
- Optical Drive: Lite-On DVD-RW
- OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
- Case: Corsair Graphite Series 600T
Comparison Heatsinks:
- Stock Intel heatsink
- Cooler Master Hyper 612 PWM
- Cooler Master GeminII S524
- NZXT Havik 140
- Corsair H60
- Noctua NH-D14
- Noctua NH-U12P SE
Well we see here that the Transformer 3 does quite a good job at keeping the processor cool while idle, and this is probably thanks to the very well-finished, direct contact heatpipe base. The load temperature actually ties the H60! The HPL-815, did a good bit better at idle than the stock Intel unit does, but once it started to get some heat on it the performance tapered off. In fact, it allowed the CPU to pass 100°C on the overclocked load test.
So we see here that the Evercool Transformer 3 actually does quite well in a stock scenario and actually matching the performance from that of a Corsair H60. The high-quality, direct contact base is probably to thank for that since it helps the heat from the processor to be removed quickly, and then the rest is the easy job of the fins being cooled by the fan. On the other hand, the higher-load performance didn't correlate to what we saw in the Stock testing, and that's most likely due to it's lower weight. Lower weight directly means a lower heat capacity, so as soon as the fins and fans cannot keep up, the temperature increases until it reaches a higher equilibrium. For stock situations, this cooler does very well. As far as noise goes, I can't say that I really noticed anything louder than other coolers.
We know that the HPL-815, on the other hand, is meant for a very space-saving purpose. Therefore, it is very small and very light. Even though it's noticeably shorter than the stock Intel unit, I'm going to consider it being what the Intel unit is — but with heatpipes. That being said, it does a better job at cooling a stock i7 in both idle and load testing by 11°C. Even at overclocked idle, it still has an 11°C over what the Intel unit can do. However, once loaded, the temperatures rapidly climbed past 70°, 80°, 90°. The rate of the increasing temperature was leveling off, but once it passed 100°C on the processor, I pulled the plug on the test since that is the TJ Max of the i7 920. I did remove the cooler, reapply thermal paste and reseat it, but the same result occurred. My only explanation to why this happens is because of how small it is. However, this cooler is not meant to be a heavy breather and big performer like the $70 and $80 coolers that are out on the market. When it comes to cost, it's more of a particular "need" type of thing where a small cooler is not an option. At about the same price as the Transformer 3, it'd only be a reasonable move if space limitations were great. For noise on this one, it's certainly noticeable especially at full speed. It's understandable though, an 80mm fan can only do so much before its easily detected by its noise.
To conclude this review, I will make it clear that these two coolers have two completely different purposes. The Transformer 3 is a budget, tower cooler that is compatible with pretty much everything that's still laying around today, and does a pretty good job at cooling for what it's worth. On the other side, the HPL-815 is a very low profile, space saving design where its overall application is not going to be overclocked very much, if at all. This is a cooler that I would put into a 1.5U or 2U rackmount if I still wanted slightly lower temperatures, or an HTPC that I have in a mini-ITX case that's literally not much bigger than a DVD ROM drive. Even though the HPL-815 "failed" the overclocked load test, it'd still be something good to have if it's ever needed.
Pros: (Transformer 3)
- Quiet
- Simple installation
- Rubber fan mounts for quiet operation
- Higher quality direct contact base
- Some may like the "chromed" fan
Pros: (HPL-815)
- Extremely small, will fit anywhere
- Installation is easy and fast
- Decent quality base
Cons: (Transformer 3)
- Low level of mass doesn't handle heavy loads well
Cons: (HPL-815)
- Price to overall performance is high

Beautiful, passionate, vibrant, full of life, witty, an unforgettable smile and a wicked sense of humor are all things friends and family reference when remembering 24-year-old Jessica Ghawi.
Jessica loved sports, especially hockey, and she aspired to be a successful sports reporter. She interned at 104.3 The Fan and Mile High Sports Radio, two Denver-based sports radio stations - the morning show host of the latter recalled how much she wanted to help others, such as those victimized by the Colorado wildfires. For her on-air career, Jessica went by the last name Redfield.
Jessica's brother, Jordan, who flew to Colorado just hours after the shooting said in interviews he wanted his sister remembered for everything she was, and not the tragic circumstances which surrounded her death.
"I want people to remember that heart and remember the good things that she's done; remember that smile and what her possibilities, what her prospectives, what she could have done in the future."
An active blogger and user of social network Twitter, it was only fitting that Jessica's boyfriend, Jay Meloff, would use twitter to express his emotions.
"Every experience in life was amplified beyond my wildest dreams with you"
Meloff is a junior league Hockey player out of Toronto whom Jessica had met over Skype while she was doing a story. He added the following, through another tweet.
"140 could never do you justice. Nor could all the words in this world. Never wanted to fall asleep because it meant missing time with you."
140 being the limit to the number of characters you can include in a single tweet.
Having avoided, by minutes, the shooting in a Toronto mall, Jessica had survived an experience which gave her a unique perspective regarding how random acts of violence can impact the way lives are lived. As she was an avid blogger, we can do no better than let her words speak for themselves.
"I was shown how fragile life was on Saturday. I saw the terror on bystanders' faces. I saw the victims of a senseless crime. I saw lives change. I was reminded that we don't know when or where our time on Earth will end. When or where we will breathe our last breath. For one man, it was in the middle of a busy food court on a Saturday evening.
I say all the time that every moment we have to live our life is a blessing. So often I have found myself taking it for granted. Every hug from a family member. Every laugh we share with friends. Even the times of solitude are all blessings. Every second of every day is a gift. After Saturday evening, I know I truly understand how blessed I am for each second I am given."
- Jessica Ghawi, June 5, 2012.

Taiwan's Agricultural Trade Goodwill Mission to visit U.S. to sign letters of intent
Post Date:2005/9/8
An Agricultural Trade Goodwill Mission from the Republic of China (Taiwan) is scheduled to visit the United States from September 11 to 23, 2005, with a stop in Washington, D.C. from September 12 to 15.
An Agricultural Trade Goodwill Mission from the Republic of China (Taiwan) is scheduled to visit the United States from September 11 to 23, 2005, with a stop in Washington, D.C. from September 12 to 15.
While there, the Mission will sign letters of intent to purchase as much as $3.1 billion worth of U.S. agricultural products over the next two years. After leaving Washington, D.C., the Mission will split into three groups: the soybean & corn group, the wheat group and the leather group. The soybean & corn group will visit Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, and Missouri, while the wheat group will visit North Dakota, Montana, and Idaho. The hide group will visit Texas and Kansas.
This Mission, led by Dr. Hsi-huang Chen, Chairman of Taiwan Grains and Feeds Development Foundation, consists of 17 members representing different agricultural interests in Taiwan. The Mission demonstrates Taiwan's continuing interest in U.S. agricultural products, the quality of which has long been appreciated by Taiwan importers and consumers.
While in Washington, D.C. the Mission plans to visit the Department of Agriculture, the U.S. Grains Council, and the U.S. Wheat Associates, and call on members of U.S. Congress. On the morning of Wednesday, September 14 at Capitol Hill (Mansfield Room, S 207), the Mission will sign the letters of intent to purchase in 2006 and 2007 up to 14.5 million metric tons (equivalent to 559 million bushels) of U.S. wheat, soybeans and corn with U.S. grains exporters, as well as up to 6 million pieces of wet salted and wet blue cattle hide.
When the last Taiwan Agricultural Trade Goodwill Mission visited Washington, D.C. in 2003, it signed letters of intent to purchase 15.1 million metric tons (approximately 581 million bushels) of U.S. wheat, soybeans and corn, and 4 million pieces of hide, with a total value of close to $2.87 billion in 2004 and 2005. As of June 2005, Taiwan had already purchased 10.5 million metric tons (equivalent to 404 million bushels) of U.S. grains, along with 3.0 million pieces of U.S. hide in 2004.
Taiwan consumers have long appreciated high-quality American farm products. Between 1978 and 1993, Taiwan sent 18 procurement missions to the United States, resulting in the purchase of U.S. agricultural products worth $11.6 billion. These missions were discontinued in 1993 after trade liberalization measures rendered them unnecessary. Since then, Taiwan's private importers have imported even more U.S. agricultural products. In 2004, Taiwan was the 7th largest overseas market for U.S. agricultural products.
In terms of per capita consumption, Taiwan is the world's 2nd largest consumer of U.S. agricultural products. In particular, Taiwan is the 3rd largest overseas market for U.S. corn, the 5th largest for U.S. soybeans, and the 8th largest for U.S. wheat. In fact, U.S. grains account for 95% of Taiwan's total grain imports.

Pie Crust Bag (14") from Harold Import Company
Harold Pie Crust Bag (14")
The inventive folks at Harold Import Company have come up with a novel approach to forming perfect pie crusts from scratch: with the Harold Pie Crust Bag (shown here in the 14-inch model), simply place a pie dough into the clear-plastic zippered bag, then roll out the dough into an even, near-perfect circle. No need for cutting! Helps keep hands clean and dough sanitary. A 14-inch pie crust will accommodate a pie 10" to 12.5" in diameter.
Please note that this product may arrive under a different name than is advertised (Beyond Gourmet, e.g.). This is normal. Harold Imports owns and distributes for a large family of brands.
