The Great Debate Over Housing Plans
Posted By Jason Sahler On August 15, 2008 @ 2:00 pm In Architecture,Green Building,Prefab Housing | 1 Comment
Earlier this summer we introduced you to Freegreen [2] and their efforts to bring green prefab design to the masses. Recently Lloyd Alter [3] from treehugger [4] conducted an excellent interview with David Wax from Freegreen and architect Greg La Vardera whose smart modern home designs can be found on Houseplans.com [5]. Lloyd looks at the issues facing consumers who decided to go the prefab route, exploring the different approaches to design taken by David and Greg. The interview elicits some great responses from each participant, and sums up what their respective design paths mean for consumers. Head on over to treehugger [4] to check it out!

The AA Customer Reviews
First Class Windscreen Service from the AA
As a busy mum I know how important it is to keep my windshield as clear and clean as possible. My windscreen recently got a chip in it and I needed to have it fixed as soon as possible so I called the AA. Their service was great and they helped me to have the problem resolved without spending a lot of money on it.
When I noticed the chip in the windscreen I thought I would have to replace the entire item. I cringed at the thought of paying so much money to have the windscreen replaced and I wasn't looking forward to it. When the AA told me that I didn't need to replace the entire item I was very happy. They said that they could fix it and, even though the windscreen wouldn't look perfect, it would be safe and sound.
While I was having my windscreen fixed I asked about the dangers of having a chips windscreen. Apparently the cracks can get larger until you have one large crack that could shatter in a moment if it is hit by a small rock or stone. This is not something that I wanted, especially with children in the car. Another problem is that the crack was damaging my windscreen wipers and, if left long enough, these too would have to be replaced.
So I am glad that I had the problem fixed when I did. Leaving it for too long might have led to a range of other problems and these would have cost me a lot more money. I am very happy with the service that I received.
Driving lessons helped build my son's confidence
My 17 year old son just got his provisional license, and he was a nervous driver to say the least. My husband took him round the car park a few times at the Tesco after hours, and after walking in and declaring he'd never go out in the car with Jake again, I thought it was time to arrange proper lessons. I went on The AA's website and read all about their driving classes and decided they were the best option for our son. I really appreciated all of the info they provided to ease my mind about what's offered, and I was able to get the prices and book everything right from their site. Jake had his first lesson after school yesterday and he came home beaming with pride. Turns out he's not as terrible a driver as we thought, and I have The AA to thank.
Wonderful service from AA patrol man - Daniel
On Tuesday October 10 I had cause to call the AA for assistance when my car refused to start. The service I received was absolutely splendid and the Patrol man who came to my aid could not have been more helpful and cheerful.. He took away the anxiety, escorted me home and made sure the car was safe. His name is Daniel and his number is 78649. I cannot praise him highly enough

The town of Shallotte has set impact fees for Internet sweepstakes establishments. The fees are similar to those for other businesses such as doctors' offices.
At last week's pre-agenda meeting, the board of aldermen voted to set fees of $1,100 for sewer and $365 for water for each toilet, after town staff recommending setting higher rates more closely aligned with restaurant impact fees.
"I can't imagine it comes near putting the same burden on facilities as a restaurant," alderman John Kinlaw said.
Fewer doses of H1N1 influenza vaccines have arrived at the Brunswick County Health Department than first expected, and children and pregnant women remain at risk for contracting H1N1.
Brunswick County Deputy Health Director Fred Michael said the county has received about 1,200 doses of the originally anticipated 9,000 does of H1N1 vaccine in recent weeks. Another 1,400 doses are expected Wednesday or Thursday.
After Wake County Sheriff's deputies arrested Danny Thomas Goldston Jr. on Oct. 26, for allegedly breaking into construction sites around Wake County, detectives tied him back to Brunswick County.
Brunswick County Sheriff's Office Detective Mike Murray said he was in the process of charging Goldston, 22, with a string of break-ins and robberies in the Leland area Oct. 24.
But what Goldston, who lives in Wendell, just outside of Raleigh, was doing in Leland, detectives say they don't know. Murray said Goldston rented a U-Haul truck in Apex on Oct. 5.
BOLIVIA—Brunswick County Commissioners approved a less stringent background check policy for the 300 or so people who volunteer each year with the Brunswick County Parks and Recreation Department's youth and special populations programs.
Jim Pryor, the county's parks and recreation director, said the county commissioners adopted the criminal background check policy for volunteers in 2007 to, "Make sure they are socially fit, and to make sure they can work with our kids and our programs."
SUNSET BEACH—New rules for allowing motorized vehicles on the beach for the handicapped were approved Monday night by town council.
Council members had previously discussed allowing only motorized wheelchairs on the strand, in addition to town vehicles, but decided similar vehicles or even golf carts could be allowed with restrictions for handicapped use.
The draft proposal approved Monday allows handicapped persons to operate on the beach strand factory-manufactured motorized wheelchairs or a similar vehicle not exceeding 600 pounds.
SUPPLY—Surrounded by family and friends, Danny Grissett and Samuel Causey reached a milestone in their recovery from drug abuse as they graduated from Drug Treatment Court last week.
Grissett and Causey join the program's first graduate, Scott Milligan, who graduated in August, as graduates of Brunswick County's rehabilitation-focused Drug Treatment Court.
CALABASH—Incumbent Bill Dixon, former town commissioner Jody Nance, and write-in candidate Mary Knight have each claimed seats on the Calabash Board of Commissioners.
Unofficial election tallies from Tuesday's municipal election in the seafood capital showed Dixon and Nance with 151 and 135 votes respectively and 133 votes for a write-in candidate, compared to 116 votes for incumbent Emily DiStasio and 112 votes for incumbent Cecelia Herman.
Running unopposed for re-election, Ocean Isle Beach Mayor Debbie Smith received 118 votes in this year's municipal election and will serve another two-year term.
She has served as mayor since 2003, and served as a commissioner from 1983-1995 and 1997-2003.
"It makes you feel good that people hopefully think I'm doing a good job, and I will continue to try and do that," Smith said Tuesday night.
Smith said her goal for the next two years is to keep the town fiscally responsible and keep the beach nourished.
Voters in all 19 municipalities in Brunswick County get the chance to decide who will run their towns in municipal elections today.
Polls are open until 7:30 p.m.
In addition to deciding among three candidates for two town commissioners' seats, Carolina Shores voters will have on their ballot a referendum asking whether the town "should return to a Mayor-Council Form of Government, as opposed to remaining in its current Council-Manager Form of Government?"
A groundbreaking for a wastewater collection system for the Sunset Beach mainland is set for 1:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 6.
The event, orchestrated by Brunswick County in conjunction with the town of Sunset Beach, will take place in the common area at the intersection of Oyster Pointe Drive and Oyster Bay Drive.

Utah Chapter Launches Wasatch Back Network
by Amy Mills
The Utah Chapter has added to its three local Groups (Glen Canyon, Ogden and Salt Lake) a new Network for Sierra Club members and supporters in Summit and Wasatch Counties. A Network is similar to a Group, but is less structured and operates on a more casual basis. The Utah Chapter Executive Committee appointed Marion Klaus as the Network leader. Marion comes to the Network with many years of leadership and hands-on experience in the Utah Chapter, as well as on national Sierra Club environmental campaigns.
There are currently 1,145 Sierra Club members and supporters in Summit and Wasatch Counties, locally known as the "Wasatch Back." With this impressive number, and the range of environmental issues accompanying population growth in the area, our hopes are high for raising local issue awareness, promoting environmental involvement, and building a Sierra Club presence through the Wasatch Back Network (WBN). The Network will also have representation in the Utah Chapter, and benefit from Chapter support for local issues, campaigns, outings, and social activities.
The WBN held its initial organizational meeting on June 24, 2013. We discussed various local issues, such as the proposed SkiLink gondola between Canyons and Solitude resorts, increased tanker truck traffic on SR-40 and I-80 generated by the increase in oil and gas development in the Uinta Basin, as well as other issues in Utah such as the Greater Canyonlands National Monument proposal. An initial survey of members' interests in future WBN activity showed strongest interest in air quality, climate change, wilderness, wildlife, and water conservation and quality.
Three WBN-sponsored presentations have followed: On November 12, we hosted speaker Mary Closser of the Climate Reality Project who provided an update on climate disruption, and Matt Abbott of Park City Municipal Corp. who briefed us on the "Low Carbon Diet" and what we as citizens can do to reduce our carbon footprints. On January 8, 2014, Marion Klaus addressed the Newcomers' Club of greater Park City with a presentation on Sierra Club activities in Utah and the intermountain west, with an emphasis on the new national Our Wild America campaign. Then, on February 11, 2014, we sponsored a presentation by local nutritionist Teri Underwood, who spoke about the interrelationships among US eating patterns, agriculture, and the environment.
Future presentation topics may include water conservation and impacts of oil development. Check the Utah Chapter web site (Utah.sierraclub.org) events listing and local media (Park Record, KPCW.org calendar) for announcements. Our listserve provides email notices of meetings and other local environmental activities to our members. To be added to our listserve, contact email@example.com, or follow the directions below. As the WBN grows and members volunteer, we hope to branch out and provide more opportunities for education, involvement, and hands-on projects.

Learning a new language at any age is an enormously rewarding experience in many ways. While language learning is an enriching experience for all ages, children have the most to gain from this wonderful adventure. Quite simply, starting early offers the widest possible set of benefits and opportunities.
Higher test scores: Numerous reports have proven that students who have studied a foreign language perform much better than their monolingual peers on many standardized tests, including all sections of the SAT. In fact, the 2007 College Bound Seniors report, issued by the College Board, which administers the SAT, vividly demonstrates the significant benefits of studying a foreign language. The report shows that students with 4 or more years of foreign language study score on average 140 points higher (out of 800!) than students with half a year or less experience on the Critical Reading section, and almost another 140 in the Math section and over 150 points higher on Writing.
Better and more advanced reading skills: A study undertaken by York University in Canada suggests that bilingual children's knowledge of a second language gives them an advantage in learning to read. Their ability to apply the insights and experiences of one language to the other as well as their wider experience of language gives them a big leg up. As they grow older, this advantage continues and grows. Plus, being able to read two languages is pretty impressive all by itself!
Greater confidence: Children are always discovering new things, but learning a new language is a uniquely rewarding experience—at any age. For children, the feeling of accomplishment that comes with their first steps toward a second language can spur them on to a deeper and broader passion for learning in general. And because children are at a special "window of opportunity" in which language learning is intuitive and natural, the ease and pleasure of the experience may boost their confidence and their desire for new discoveries.
Gives brains a boost: In a recent article in The New Yorker, Malcolm Gladwell quotes James Flynn, a renowned scientist, as saying "The mind is much more like a muscle than we've ever realized… It needs to get cognitive exercise. It's not some piece of clay on which you put an indelible mark." Research into the effects of bilingualism on children suggests that exposure to more than one language is an excellent way of flexing those brain muscles—and building them up too! Bilingual children in one study reported in Nature showed a significantly larger density of "grey matter" in their brains. And those who had been exposed to a second language from an early age proved to have the most grey matter of all. Grey matter is responsible for processing information, including memory, speech and sensory perception. And if it can be increased by exposure to a second language, then language learning would be just like taking your brain to the gym!
Natural-sounding, native-like accent: Children are always mimicking what they hear, and are surprisingly good at it! They are uniquely attuned to slight differences in tone and sound. Their sensitive ears help them pick up on and duplicate the tricky sounds adults and even adolescents often stumble over.
Window of Opportunity Brain researchers have discovered that a window of opportunity exists for optimal foreign language acquisition which diminishes after the age of . Children are endowed with an innate gift that allows them to learn languages and their pronunciations with ease. Unfortunately this gift fizzles as we grow older, and as adults, we struggle. Whether at age 8 or 10 or the onset of puberty, at some point we lose their ability to absorbs and produce the full range of human sounds. For example think of Henry Kissinger, Nobel Peace Prize-winner and former US Secretary of State. Despite having lived in America for the last 72 years, he still speaks English – and perfect English, at that – with a strong German accent. Meanwhile, Walter, his less-known brother, today sounds like a native English speaker. How is this so? When The Kissinger family emigrated from Germany to New York in 1938, Henry was already 15 years old. Walter was only 13. This age gap affected how the two brothers would speak English until this very day.
What a difference two years makes!
Greater opportunities for college and careers: Colleges now place an increasingly high value on knowledge of more than one language. As the admissions process becomes more competitive across the board, knowing a second or a third language adds a new dimension to an applicant's resume. And as the economy becomes more and more globalized, English-only becomes less and less of an option.
Bigger view of the world: Traveling abroad is an experience which can benefit anyone, offering not just new sites to see, but new frames of mind and new perspectives. But going abroad and feeling comfortable in the language of your destination means you're doing more than just traveling—going from your home to another place, and then back home. You can feel as if you're a part of the culture and the life of this new world, as if you aren't a total stranger just visiting. Like reading a poem in another tongue you know, you will hear more than just the language—you will hear the music behind it as well, and the life.
Greater grasp of one's first language—including a bigger, richer vocabulary: Most of the time we use our first language with little thought to grammatical rules or constructions. This is perfectly natural, but the experience of learning a new language can bring greater understanding and perhaps even better grammar to our first language. Knowing the way another language works encourages us to examine our own language's mechanics in a positive way. By being able to compare the two, we learn more than we ever would as a monolingual. Or as Nancy Rhodes, Director of Foreign Language Education at the Center for Applied Linguistics in Washington, DC says, "The more children learn about a foreign language, the more they understand about their own language." Children use what they learn in one language to reinforce concepts and terms they've learned in the other. They can solidify their gains in their native tongue by matching them to their new adventures in another language.
Building and keeping cultural connections: Some of us are lucky enough to have a relative who still speaks their mother tongue frequently. To be able to communicate with them in that language builds a bridge—not only to that person, but to the heritage and history they represent. To maintain that connection keeps alive so much—memories, stories and traditions—and brings to life new memories, stories and traditions as well.
An all-family activity: Modern life is hectic; its demands are frequent and often contradictory. Learning a language together as a family provides a unifying activity which doesn't require you to drive your kids anywhere, and doesn't make it necessary to be in ten places at once. Starting this process early with your child or children provides your family with an activity and an experience it can return to and grow with over the years.
Your child and your family will benefit—in these ways and others—from learning a second language. You will find new and even unique uses, opportunities and ideas open up as you adapt your language learning process to you and your child's needs and aspirations.
Starting now means the possibilities are wide open!

PARIS (AP) — France's government is asking Air France to suspend flights to the largest city in Sierra Leone in response to the Ebola epidemic in the region that has killed more than 1,400 people.
The government said Wednesday that the epidemic's growth — notably in Liberia and Sierra Leone — prompted its request. It also recommended that French citizens leave the area.
Air France had no immediate comment on the request.
Most regional and major airlines have suspended services to the three most affected countries, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea. The U.N. has warned that the lack of flights is making it increasingly difficult to bring in supplies. Even U.N. flights to bring humanitarian workers to Guinea, Liberia and Sierra Leone have faced restrictions.

Decade of Dominance
posted at 1/8/2011 10:08 PM ESTJust watched this great special on Comcast Sports. 60 minute special, not ONE SECOND OF THE BRUINS. Let's face it, we've all been DUPED. I've been a season ticket holder for years; next year - I will not be renewing. With a core of Chiarelli, Julien, Chara and Savard; this team won't ever win. The Chara contract will go down about as bad as Dipietro's. The Bruins management is content with just getting in as the 7th or 8th seed and bowing out. The fact that the idiot GM actually states their goal is to be 'a tough team to play against' is absolutely pathetic. I'm tired of buying into this garbage. The Bruins haven't had a consistent effort in over 2 years. The PR move this offseason to bring people in was all about Tyler Seguin? WHERE IS HE? The Bruins are killing his career. Can't wait until he tears it up elsewhere. The fact our best player is a goalie in his late 30's is a joke; the Bruins are pathetic, hope everyone else realizes what has been going on the past few years

posted at 12/19/2008 7:43 AM ESTLots of talk about scott leaving the Patriots for the GM job in Detroit or Kansas City. I for one, don't believe that Bill and Bob would let him go and furthermore, why would he want to go? I hope he doesn't leave for vanity reasons. I don't think that the dollars would be too much that Kraft wouldn't pay it to keep him.
Any thoughts?
posted at 12/19/2008 8:28 AM ESTOn the surface, that all makes sense. But we don't know what happens behind closed doors. I can't imagine that working for BB is easy. Although it must be VERY gratifying to see him use the tools you give him to such a great end. I would think that in just a few more years SP and BB would have to be considered the best Coach/GM/Player personel tandem ever..
Lets hope that BK and BB make it very dificult for SP to even think of leaving..
posted at 12/19/2008 8:32 AM ESTI agree Jamerson no way they let him leave nor do i think he would leave NE for a lackluster job like the Lions.
posted at 12/19/2008 8:37 AM ESTPioli has had better offers in years past then Detroit or KC. The guy seems to like his situation, no reason to disrupt your life if you are happy.
posted at 12/19/2008 11:21 AM ESTA GM job with full control over personnel (much like the Tuna got in Miami) would be considered a "promotion". They could not stop him from leaving in that case. Only if it is a parallel move does his contract have to be considered. I certainly hope he likes it where he is and decides not to move on (he's done so before). I'm sure Kraft would match whatever salary he may be offered.

posted at 12/19/2008 12:29 PM ESTnobody thinks of pioli as that guy in NE.
posted at 12/19/2008 12:31 PM ESTRot?
Are you mentally imbalanced?
In the salary-cap era, what Pioli and the Patriots have accomplished is beyond amazing. Longevity is the exception rather than rule in this day and age and maintaining a franchise at the top of the league year-in, year-out speaks to the wisdom of keeping together a system that works. Pioli has nothing to prove to anyone but himself, and he may well take a rebuilding job where he has more control -- but nobody who knows anything about football refers to Scott Pioli as "that guy in New England."
You're an idiot.
posted at 12/19/2008 12:32 PM ESTOne of the advantages about going to detroit is that even if you suck, you won't get fired. The worst part of going there is that it is detroit
This post has been removed.
posted at 12/19/2008 1:45 PM ESTwhy would the patriots executives let Dimitrioff go if they were not allready discussing a long term deal for SP...
i would think that Pioli and Kraft sat down before the team elected to watch Dimitrioff walk...
i understand SP could tell kraft one thing and do another but that would not make sense for a GM to burn bridges like that in any situation, because down the road these front offices..., expecially the ones out of our division like detroit and KC would need to talk...
the detroit and KC job will be retained by GMs with minimal influences due to the economy... when you have a coach like Herm Edwards who has a great vision and passion for the game i would think you could hire a young pup as an interum GM and save the coin...???????????
these teams are dumping pay roll i do not think they will be replacing it with big dollar executives

Woman denies drug trafficking chargeApril 16,2014Woman denies
trafficking charges
A Brandon woman who told police she opened her home to a New York drug dealer to support her own addiction denied two felony charges in Rutland criminal court Monday.
Jamie L. Trinci, 28, pleaded innocent to counts of possessing crack cocaine and heroin trafficking. Judge Nancy Corsones set bail at $50,000 for Trinci, who was not listed on the states online inmate locator Tuesday night.
Trinci, who could face up to 35 years in jail if convicted of both offenses, was arrested in February after police executed a search warrant at her home at 43 Carver St.
In the home, Brandon Police say they seized 32 rocks of crack cocaine weighing a total of 12. 5 grams and 380 bags of heroin weighing a total of 12.12 grams.
During her arrest, Trinci allegedly told police that she had been hosting a drug dealer from Brooklyn, N.Y, at her home since she moved into the residence in November.
She said the dealer, who goes by the street name BL would package drugs at her home and give them to her to sell to people she knew.MORE IN This Just InWHITE RIVER JUNCTION A New Hampshire man is expected to spend nine months in jail in his home...

help! need some sleep
Lacey (26)+ Dusty(26) married 04/08/06
Comments (5)
Mine has issues too. She fights sleep then once she falls asleep she will wake up in the middle of the night to use the bathroon and try to sneak into my room and bed. It is the same struggle every night. We got her one of those light animals and she has a stuffed frog that she has to sleep with. I wish she would sleep and be okay in her own bed.
Would you be open to letting her sleep on a mattress on the floor of your room? Would that make her comfortable enough to get the sleep that her little body needs (& you too!)?
I have a had 2 friends I can think of who had kids that really struggled to sleep and this was the solution both of them went with. For both of them, it solved the sleep problem and then they worked slowly on getting their kids to sleep in their own room. One just recently decided she was ready to sleep in her own room, at 7.5 years old, the other often comes to his parents room and sleeps on the mattress in the middle of the night. He starts in his own room, but doesn't always stay there. I know many people think that is absolutely crazy, but sleep is a way bigger priority to me than where someone sleeps, so I'd do it if I needed to. My one friend has a chart and her kid earns rewards for staying in his own bed X number of nights in a row...he's getting there slowly. He is almost 7 and he sleeps in his own bed much more often than he did when he was 2.

When we moved last year my son had a HORRIBLE time sleeping in his new room. He would bring his comforter, blanket, & pillow into our room and sleep. We ended up bringing his matress in because something was going on with him that we couldn't fix...and sleeping in our room actually had him sleep! I hated it, but I'd rather have a nice boy than a cranky sleepy boy. He eventually went into his room. THOUGH...currently we are having a little bit of trouble at bed time. He wants to start out in our bed then we move him into his room. I'm not sure if it's because my husband now works nights so our son is more comfortable in our room until daddy gets home.. Hubby doesn't like it but I'm not fighting every night for hours getting him to sleep in his own room. I'd rather carry him over to his room when hubby gets home (or hubby does it) lol.
I've heard of moms still laying with their children for half hour or more to get them to sleep in their own room... I have an infant as well so for me this isn't really an option the majority of nights.

After a few weeks of sleepless nights, we went out and bought the dream light pet. It's not always a fix but I tell her to turn it on when she wakes up. Also I put books beside my little ones bed and let her know that she doesn't have to go to sleep but she has to stay in her bed quietly.

If they changed the level cap, they would have to change the way effort values worked and are distributed, i mean no harm by saying this but if your one of the people that dont ev train it doesnt mean they dont exsist and arent a staple game mechanic to what is leveling and stats in pokemon.
But... i also see a way they can even further extrapolate the species count...
The newer post 800 species regions would have to be newspecies/new region locked. Leaving you to catch only the 100-150 new species pre elite four. Then offer up a hundred or so close region species post elite four and layer with what ever legendaries they feel are trendy or purposeful at the time.
But.. this would also create an insurance for the fans... multiple remakes for every generation of system compatibility... which seems to be considered the most far fetched thing since planet earth was said to be round and not exsisting in a ferment.. to people on this thread atleast...
The point im always so vigilantly trying to make is there is no limit to what game freak has in store but one thing is certain... the more generations the more remakes... especially if the best argument is towhy we wont get an rse remake is fulfilled compatibility

Top Chef fans who insist the show is more concerned with cooking than controversy may have to reconsider their position after reviewing the just-released list
Top Chef fans who insist the show is more concerned with cooking than controversy may have to reconsider their position after reviewing the just-released list of Season 10 cheftestants.
Among the chefs who competed for Top Chef status in Seattle was John Tesar, a talented 54-year old who D Magazine last year named the "Most Hated Chef in Dallas." The story lead anecdote neatly conveyed the Mansion alum's legendary volatility: When a top Dallas restaurateur dropped by Tesar's new burger joint, the evening ended with Tesar shouting after him, "You're a fucking pussy, Nick. Fuck you"--and a manager calling 911. Sounds like great television. (As best as I can tell from public records, Tesar apparently avoided any run-ins with the law during filming.)
Tesar isn't the only Dallas chef on the contestant list: Two veterans of Stephen Pyles' kitchens also participated in the Seattle circus. Other chefs from the U.S. Southwest include Kuniko Yagi; Brooke Williamson; Carla Pellegrino and Micha Fields. Another three chefs hail from Colorado. The East Coast is also well-represented, with three chefs from Washington D.C.; two chefs from New York (including Gina Keatley, a dietician and founder of a nutrition advocacy organization); and two chefs from Boston.
But none of the 21 chefs have ties to the Pacific Northwest. Napa resident Lizzie Binder, a native South African who cooked at Chez Panisse and The French Laundry, comes closest to serving as a regional representative.
During Top Chef's last season, a trio of aspiring winners from Seattle were axed during the first episode. Bravo has not yet revealed whether the elimination process will follow the same format this season.
The first episode airs Nov. 7.

Bill Cosby Gets Schooled on Dinosaurs by a 4 1/2 Year Old in 'Kid's Say the Darnedest Things' Video
It started with Art Linkletter, then Bill Cosby and if they ever bring it back I think Jimmy Kimmel should host; Kid's Say the Darnedest Things. Kids have incredible imaginations if you just let them run with it. This particular video had me laughing so hard I was crying and then my asthma kicked in and I started coughing and wheezing. But after the week of storm tragedies we've had I think a good belly laugh is in order for the Friday.

Epidural or not?
I want to try to have the baby natural, without any drugs. Please help me to understand what I will go thru..and I know every person is different, but who has had a drug free labor? and what was it like? how did you deal or focus? - This is my first

I went into labor on the 29th of September 2007. My water broke and I didn't feel any pain but they induced my labor. At 3 cms i decided to get the epidural because i was really scared to feel a painful contraction (although i didn't actually have pain). I had my son the next morning and by the afternoon i noticed that the numb feeling wasn't wearing off like the dr. had said. I would suggest NOT getting the epidural because now i have nerve damage in my lower spine. The numb feeling still hasn't wore off and i have little to NO control over my right leg. I really regret it now because it is so hard to take care of a new baby when you are physically handicapped now. Im 20 years old and this was my first child. I look back now and wish i had just suffered with the pain. Everyone is different though i would just like to let you know what im going through so you really think about what you are getting yourself into. Good luck and i wish you and your new baby the best.posted 01/06/2008 by Ur_Lil_Secret
I had my first 2 without the epidural, expecting my third in May. I just went into every labor telling my Dr, my husband and myself that I would do what I needed when the time came. I think it is important to be ready to do what is needed and not what you think should be done before you are there. I was lucky to have quick and "easy" labor both times, so I didn't need any medicine. But, I think for people who have long labor, the fatigue makes it much more difficult to deal with the discomfort and medicine is a real life saver. For me, the most difficult part is dilating from 7-10, that is like crazy intense cramps and it goes on for a little while (about 30-40 min for me). Then the pushing of the head burns a lot (tear or not, first time I had a tiny tear, second time none), but for me, that part is so fast and then you are so relieved and its pretty much over.posted 03/08/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
As for focus, I tried to focus on staying calm so my labor would progress more quickly. In the beginning stages, I find that it is helpful to have family present to distract me, but as I start having trouble following conversations, I send the family out and labor with just my husband. (My husband has the most soothing presence--he is always calm under pressure and his ability to relax, helps me relax--whoever is that person in your life, have them with you.) Breathing exercises don't help with pain, but they do give you something else to concentrate on. I get really quiet and squeeze my husband's hand on the really bad contractions. When it is time to push, I close my eyes, and concentrate all my energy on pushing so I can get my baby out quickly so the pain will end. When you scream, you waste energy and you don't push down, so it doesn't help you at all. The calmer you are, the more you will enjoy your experience.posted 08/24/2010 by jdepriest
I too wanted a drug free birth mainly because I don't know what the long term effects of these drugs will have on my LO. I get freaked out with those class action lawsuit commercials that come out 20 years after drs. Said the drug was completely safe. Having said that, I got way too impatient when my DS was late. I agreed to be induced at 6 days late. Long story short I finally gave in when I was 8 cm dilated and got a dose of Nubain. It didn't help at all, it just made my eyes heavy and doped up look in the after pictures with baby. I totally regret it. The second time I went in with the attitude that I would wait to let things happen naturally. I went into labor when I was 6 days late. Since labor is MUCH harder when being induced, I didn't even think I was in labor. I took our labor teachers advice and didn't call the doctor until it ?hurt?. Because of that - got to the hospital just in time. No time for drugs, so it was perfect. Totally doable and great!!! You can do it!posted 06/20/2011 by Mom2B31
You really don't know until you are in labor whether you will need meds or not. I had my first two babies all natural (mind you I really prepared by reading books and taking classes). It was a wonderful experience both times! My third I decided to get an intrathecal injection since my baby was "face-up" and labor was much more painful. I hadn't planned on it but I couldn't bear the pain--and it was also a wonderful experience. So I have had both natural and pain relief and there are pros and cons to both. Research all your options thoroughly. And remember this: You will fear what you don't understand, and the more you fear, the more you will be in pain. Really learn and understand what your body will be going through during labor. You will be less afraid and better able to cope with the pain. And whatever you end up doing during labor, don't feel guilty. Just focus on delivering a healthy baby, whether you used pain relief or not. Best of luck!posted 04/16/2009 by Mommy 2 Isaac
I had my baby this August naturally, without any drugs, after 15 hours of intensive labour and about an hour of pushing. To this day I do not recall that experience as painful. Some things that I think are important: (1) If it's an option in your area, consider homebirth with midwives. If not, choose an environment where you would have no distractions, and you would not have to deal with any strangers (nurses you don't know, doctors you haven't met, etc.) Refuse ALL forms of intervention, not just drugs. IVs, induction, etc. (2) Give yourself a little prep test. Do 200 crunches or lunges. Don't stretch before or afterwards. Then wake up the next morning. Your muscles will most certainly hurt, and you most certainly would have to deal with some "pain'. But the knowledge that this pain is not from something being fundamentally wrong with your body, not from some part of you being injured will cause you not to SUFFER from this pain. Birth is like that. It hurts, but it's a "good" hurt.posted 12/12/2010 by Anansy
There is no right or wrong choice - both have benefits and negatives. I've done both - epidural with the first baby and then no pain medication for twins. My advice would be that pitocin made the cramps much more painful. For me I'd choose an epidural any time pitocin was considered to be an option. Natural birth for me felt like the worst menstral cramps ever - comibined with pain equivalent to smashing a finger in a car door while stubbing your toe very hard.posted 12/01/2008 by stephnlisa
I have had a natrual labor and an epidural assisted labor. It really is your choice. Both have negatives. My natural labor did not take as long but it seemed like it took longer to recover. I had more pain and swelling than I did with my epidural labor. I think the epidural may have slowed things down and that was good for me and my body. I did have a pain where the epidural went in for a few days but not a big deal compared to the pain and swelling from the natural. I am going to have a third baby in about a month and am having an epidural. I think we should support each other as women either way we choose. I do not think if you have an epidural it makes you weak or taking the easy way. I might have felt superior after I had natural but I am so over it after I had the epidural for my second child and had a much easier time and recover.posted 01/27/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
There was NO way I could have gotten through my Labour (Im a New zealander and thats how we spell 'labor' by the way) without an epidural! I always had in the back of my head that I would try and go 'natural' but when it came down to it I would have been in absolute no state to deliver a baby with the pain I experienced with the contractions! As they say each woman is different, it's a fact! I thought I had quite a high pain tolerance but OMG nothing is quite like those of my contractions, I was sweating, vomitting, couldn't talk, was crying, couldn't stand or sit. As soon as the epidural kicked in I felt SO unbelievably relaxed. So don't struggle through without an epidural if you think you need one! If you have a headache do you take an asprin? ... probably yes. Well it's not much different. I am planning for another baby in the near future and I will definitely opt for an epidural should I need it.posted 11/18/2010 by sarah_19_nz
My first child was born by emergency c-section, so I had a spinal. I did not experience any labor pains. My second child I was able to deliver vaginally and after having about 4 hours of contractions, I was more than happy to get the epidural. I had no complications with it. I am know expecting my third, and believe me, I have signed up for the epidural again. There are going to be pros and cons on both sides, just remember it is YOUR choice. You are the only one that knows your body and the only one able to make that decision. Good luck!!posted 04/16/2009 by smjones01

Vegetables provide a simple addition to this cheesy frittata that's ready in 20 minutes. Perfect if you love Italian cuisine.
Roma tomatoes are a variety of Italian plum tomatoes. Shaped like small pears, they have less moisture and consequently have a more concentrated tomato flavor. Italian plum tomatoes are used for recipes where less liquid is desired.
Parmesan cheese can be used in place of Romano cheese. Both are Italian hard cheese; Romano has a sharper flavor than Parmesan because it is made with goat's milk. Parmesan is made with cow's milk.
Substituting 8 egg whites for 4 of the whole eggs will reduce the cholesterol by about 215 milligrams and fat by about 5 grams per serving of this recipe.
This frittata is perfect with melon wedges and tall glasses of iced tea.

Microsoft Gives Up the Grail
(GOOG - Get Report), Apple (AAPL - Get Report) and Salesforce.com (CRM - Get Report) were named. Microsoft seems to be using a Salesforce.com-like, on-demand, CRM product as an anchor for its business side. Reviews have been mixed to date, but Microsoft is using its close relationships with large companies to win over new users.Speaking about the CRM potential, Ballmer said, "That's a product that I think is just a gem most people don't even think much about ... But again we're kind of No. 2 or 3 in trying harder; we're not the No. 1 guy in the market, which again I view as an upside opportunity." Which got me wondering: Of the three rivals it's watching, one of them has a much smaller market cap than the others. Google, at $144 billion, is half Microsoft's size, while Apple, at $73 billion, is again half as big. But Salesforce is valued at only $5.6 billion. That's less than what Microsoft spent on R&D last year. Microsoft has enough cash ($7 billion) to take over Salesforce at a 23% premium to its current value, which would take it from third place to first overnight in a key growth area. Combining Salesforce's technology with Microsoft's client base would arguably help both companies. And it would cost $7 billion, a pittance for Microsoft. Remember, that's how much it cost shareholders when Ballmer opened his mouth last week.More immediate gratification came Thursday when Ballmer said that Microsoft would push down its operating-expense growth to be slightly slower than it was in 2006, easing pressure on margins and possibly allowing for more room at the bottom line for dividends. Ballmer said Microsoft would stay the course in both dividend payments and stock buybacks. Still, there was talk of faster-growing rivals: Google

Agastache cana Rosita
Rosita Hummingbird Mint
Details24" tall x 18" wide (cutting propagated). An exciting new form of Agastache cana that appeared as a single outstanding plant in a group of garden plants grown from habitat collected seed. 'Rosita' has been the subject of much comment in our Santa Fe display gardens because of its profusion of dense, deep rose-pink flower spikes and extremely bushy semi-dwarf growth habit.
Earlier blooming than regular Agastache cana plants, 'Rosita's spikes have about 50% more flowers per spike than is normal; the effect is striking and noticeable from a great distance. Plant in well-drained garden soils, and water deeply but infrequently once established.

Tips for growing Agastache
Agastache are sun loving plants with aromatic foliage and flowers. They bloom from mid-summer into early fall and are resistant to rabbits and deer.
Agastache need lean, well-drained soils, prefer gravel mulches, and appreciate deep but infrequent watering after their second growing season
- Provide a fast draining soil that's naturally low in fertility, Don't plant into clay soils.
- Plant in full hot sun.
- Just a few handfuls of compost in the planting hole is enough. Don't plant into a rich, highly amended soil..
- Fertilize the Agastache just once in fall with Yum Yum Mix and Planters II.
- New transplants need regular irrigation their first growing season to establish themselves. Watering can be reduced greatly during the second growing season when the plants have matured.
To improve winter-hardiness, and encourage re-seeding, leave the stems intact over the winter. In mid-spring, remove old stems just above the new foliage, about 4 or 5 inches above ground level.
If your conditions don't lend themselves to growing Agastache in your garden, they do well planted in containers.

USDA Hardiness Planting Zones
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
- If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will survive the winter temperatures in your area.
- If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).

Gorgeous dress!
I bought this to wear to my baby shower. It is beautiful on especially flattering if you are pregnant. Pre-preg I am 5'1, 105lbs, I wore this at 7-9 months and size small fit great. It's long but I just got it hemmed.

love em
I absolutely love these boots! I am usually in between 5 and 5.5. Super tight first time you put them on but I kept the 5.5 but feel like they are starting to stretch out and are almost big even with socks. They fit kind of strange in the back of the heel which makes it feel too big. The sizing is right but awkward. They are super cute though so i don't care.

Redeemer of Light

"Reedeemer of Light" is a fictitious religious figure invented by the con artists Dala and Mobar. While they were posing as clerics from a hermitic sect, they told a story about orphans at Narva. They claimed to make a pilgrimage each spring to Narva in honor of the Redeemer of Light.
Dala once told Neelix that he resembled the Redeemer of Light. Neelix was flattered. (VOY: "Live Fast and Prosper")
