My Husband and I experienced the one night package and it was amazing. The people are so nice and the Inn is gorgeous. The Pkg deal is well worth it! The dinner was delicious, the breakfast was great. It was all in all one of the best mini vacations we have had. Looking forward to going back, hopefully soon. Definitely passing our experience on to our family and friends! The website is exactly what the Inn looks like, rooms and all. Incredible!!! Treated like a King and a Queen in an actual Castle!!!

CloudSlice for iOS
CloudSlice is a new app that aims to protect each photo stored on an iPhone or iPad by not only encrypting the photos but "slicing" them among multiple cloud storage accounts. "Stories abound of instances in which photos are stolen and used without permission, with the most threatening being cases of 'digital kidnapping' in which photos of children are republished for either marketing purposes or by those who publish them on their own blogs or social media as pictures of their own children," the developers say. "Potentially more common is the farming of photos and their metadata for marketing purpose – enabling marketers to target consumers based on information gleaned from their photos." CloudSlice uses the security of multiple cloud storage services and slices each photo so that it can be divided into as many as five different cloud storage accounts in order to protect it from hackers. The app is easy to use: to slice and upload photos, users simply tap the + button on the main screen and select which images they wish to protect. To retrieve a stored photo, they just tap on its thumbnail. The photo slices will be instantly fetched and displayed in CloudSlice. The app is available for $4.99 on the App Store.

"The ColorMunki Display gives you the control; Macphun Intensify Pro gives you creative freedom. It's the perfect combination." Available across Europe, the offer is available until stocks last.
BitTorrent Shoot
BitTorrent have released a new app, which allows users to move a big batch of photos or a large video directly from one mobile device to another, without going through the cloud. As the BitTorrent Shoot app is available for different operating systems including Android, iOS and Windows Phone; it enables cross-platform image transfers. "If you've ever experienced a situation where you're on iOS and a friend next to you has an Android phone, sending something like a big batch of photos or a long video is a challenge," says Erik Pounds is Vice President of Product Management for BitTorrent Sync. "The Shoot app was developed to make this easy." With Shoot, your first three sends are free, and a $1.99 in-app purchase enables unlimited sending. Using BitTorrent Shoot is entirely free for the receiver.
Piccure+ 2.5
Intelligent Imaging Solutions have released an update to their piccure+ software, billed as "a revolution in computational photography." Version 2.5 brings a 30–70% decrease in processing time thanks to the new imaging kernel "Kestrel." Furthermore it is now possible to use the software as a plug-in to DxO Optics Pro and Capture One (Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements and Photoshop Lightroom were already supported the previous version). "It is our goal to seamlessly integrate piccure+ into the workflow of any professional photographer," says Prof. Dr. Hanns Ruder, CEO. "It was thus extremely important to speed up piccure+ and to make it directly accessible through a wide variety of image editing programs. The update is free of charge for all users and re-emphasises the team's commitment to its customer base and the technology."

Cascable for iOS
Cascable is an iOS-based remote control app that works with a number of Wi-FI capable Canon digital SLR cameras. "Whether you're on iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch, your primary exposure adjustments and focus/shutter release are front and centre," Cascable says. "Advanced autofocus, timer and drive controls are just a tap away. " Unlike other apps, Cascable supports downloading and exporting full resolutions photos — including raw files — from your camera, and with second screen support via AirPlay or HDMI you can view your photos on the big screen. Other innovations include an Apple Watch app that puts your camera's shutter right on your wrist and a set of calculators to help with the tricky exposure calculations needed for astrophotography and neutral density filters. Cascade is currently available on the iTunes App Store for the promotional launch price of $19.99.
HDRsoft Photomatix Essentials Plugin Edition
HDRsoft have released the plugin edition of Photomatix Essentials. Providing all the power and simplicity of the standalone edition, the new plugin is tightly integrated with Adobe Photoshop Elements. Adding the ability to process photos that have already been opened in Photoshop Elements, the Photomatix Essentials Plugin is designed for photographers who want an easy-to-use introduction to HDR imaging. The plugin is available for Photoshop Elements version 10 and above on both Windows ( XP / Vista / 7 / 8) and Mac OS X (Mac OS 10.7 or later).

Crawle is a sandbox dungeon-crawler with a focus on realistic survival featuring mechanics such as sanity, hunger, thirst, energy and diseases.
Crawle will be released on Saturday 8th December! There's also some information about the upcoming 0.5.5 and 0.6.0 patches.
This is basically a FAQ about Crawle's release and Crawle's future in general.
Just a quick update on two new systems in Crawle: ranged combat (and charged attacks) and building.
It's been a while! There've been a lot of new changes and some of the major ones are documented in this article.
Another massive nightly! Most of the changes are to help new players including a tutorial world, a more in-depth tutorial and for the hardcore players...
Some information on the upcoming nightly and its new tools and features to help new players get right into the game.
Farming has been added into the game along with new ambient music and sounds and death menus and durability.
Today is Crawle's first birthday! This build includes a new menu system, a way to stop bleeding and seeds!
Nightly 6 is out! It completely revamps the dungeon system and makes it room based. It also adds the ability to craft fishing rods and makes the game...
Crafting is finally here! You can now craft your first tool and actually progress through the game a bit more. We've also added key rebinding.
PVP has finally been added to the game along with the first items to start you off with your crafting - sharp rocks and sharp bones.
This nightly is mostly bug fixes unfortunately but it makes the game a lot smoother. There's also combat music!
The second nightly build! This build includes a brand new birch tree texture and the ability for trees to die.
The first nightly has finally been released including multiplayer, world generation improvements and lots of optimisations.
After about a week of developing multiplayer I'm finally in the position of putting out a stable release and nightly builds to follow. As I said in a...
Woah, multiplayer is almost ready for testing! I'm also looking for a few people to help me stress test the server.
Multiplayer is almost ready! I just need to port over some of the client-side features over to the server for some security. Also nightlies start soon!
I'm finally facing my greatest fear of all - multiplayer! The server will be fully open-source and I'm thinking about putting out nightly releases.
Loads of news on the new PTV including the massive changelog, an explanation on the improved combat system and more!
The first real news post about Crawle where I talk about the new Health System, the improved World Generation, future Patches and the Community.
Some information on the right-click menu and an update on the new health system.
A load of development news on skills (fishing & woodcutting for the moment), new tutorials, the new health system and quick saving.
We're finally back after 11 days (that's just disgraceful!) with a load of new on NPCs, diseases, world generation and plans for the future.
Progress! I've been working on the inventory functions a bit more recently just to finally finish it off. The main thing I've added is the ability to...
We're not dead! We're working on some... stuff. Anyway as I did promise that there would be a load of big things in 0.5.0 here's the building system that...
Woohoo! 0.4.0 is out! Simply open up your updater and let it patch!
Just a fairly few necessary things that should've been in the game a while ago have been added today.
I tried to do quite a lot today, ended up adding quite a few new things but not as much as I wanted (but those things will be added very, very soon).
I thought I'd work on Holes and the whole dungeon system a bit more today. Oh and I made the game roughly 10% more dickish and wrote the most beautiful...
I'm finally back with a load of new updates including a new biome, a new dungeon theme, better world generation and loads more!

My ds who turned 3 yrs. old in July weaned himself the month before (in June) and he was only nursing 1-3 times a day at that point, sometimes once in the middle of the night. Is it normal to be able to express colostrum from my breasts almost 4 mos. after he has weaned himself??
I googled it and I read that it could be a sign of a pituitary gland tumor! I never would have noticed but my son was having a "melt down" and I picked him up to take him to his room and managed to put his knees together around my breast and then proceeded to pull away from me, ouch! I noticed a wet mark on my shirt (I was not wearing a bra at the time) and thought it was maybe just because he injured me but then I thought for the heck of it would see if it came out of my other breast and sure enough I was able to express the same thing from the other breast. It looks just like colostrum!
Can anyone tell me what this could be, is it normal? Thanks!
I can't tell you if it means anything or not health-wise, but DD weaned a year ago and I can still express colostrum.
I have Stiff Person Syndrome and my other car is a candy apple red Rascal. Feel free to ask me about it.

I've been commuting to work now for almost three months, mostly along the Hudson River bike path. I intend to keep it going through the winter, but I'm a bit confused as to what changes in gear I should make. I have a handle on clothing changes; my job entails working outdoors about 50% of the time so I have long since learned the value of layering and having the proper gear. My questions are more about changes to my bike. I have seen it mentioned that many people prefer to have a separate beater for winter given the harsher environment, but having two bikes is not an option for me for both financial and lack of storage space reasons. So my question is about what changes I should make to my commuter (7500fx) to winterize it.
This will be my first winter cycling regularly. What are the conditions on the Hudson bike path like in winter? Does it get plowed regularly? What would people say is the best tire for urban winter?

To those who have/are potty training
Comments (9)
Will you be having holiday activities/guests during your Christmas break? I was told to not even bother with any potty training until after the holidays since it tends to be a busy time with schedule disruptions and new toys to distract the kiddos from the plan. Just a thought.

I am right there with you. Hallie will tell me she "Poops" when she does or when she has gas. Today she looked at me and said "I pee pee". I think its time to start potty training, but not sure where to start either.
Hallie Lynn born 2/4/11
Leah is at the exact same stage your LO seems to be at. After her nap, I noticed that her diaper was dry, so I asked her if she had to go pee pee and if she wanted to go potty. As I was lifting her out of the crib, she must have peed, because by the time she got to the potty (right next to the crib), she was wet. I put undies on her for the rest of the evening and EVERY SINGLE TIME I asked her if she had to pee, she chose that moment to pee, so I'm almost positive that word triggers her.... tomorrow I'll wait til she's ON the potty to say it : )
I think the cloth training pants are nice because they get wet so she knows what that feels like, but they hold it in enough so that it doesn't all go on the floor.

My DD is in the same boat. She tells me when she has gone and hates being in a dirty/wet diaper. She will bring me a new diaper when she needs one. She will sometimes sit on the potty but she seems to be scared to actually go. Not sure how to start getting her to want to go. but she definitely seems ready.
I don't even think mine is ready yet. For a while when we had the potties out she would sit on them when she tried to poop, but she doesn't really "hold it" for potty, though she was telling me for a while we she had gone. Anyway, I'm keeping in mind what our ECFE teacher told us that it should take 5 days to train if they're ready. Not sure what others have heard.

I started potty training my LO 6 months ago but it wasn't till 3 months ago that she really got it and we got serious. I got her some undies and started the day off with her sitting on the toilet and every ten minutes thereafter. I would give her lots of liquids and I would set a timer and make a big deal out of going to the bathroom when it went off and we would run there. I put a stack of fun books by the toilet and we just read until she went. If she threw a fit I would say okay and just set the timer a couple minutes short till she went. After a week of this she could hold it a little longer and started telling me more when she had to go. Now she can go hours without going and tells me 95% of the time.
If you want to start, I would start now so she is used to the potty breaks and it's not that big of a surprise when she is playing with her new toys. You also have to be very dedicated since it can be very time consuming.
Good luck to you.
Wife to Keegan since 03 Aug. 01
Mother to Austin (14 Sep. 02), Savanah (12 May 06), my angel Mackenzi (15 Jan. 10) and Makayla (21 Jan. 11)
I gave her lots of water and dialuted juice, as soon as she started peeing, while she was peeing I would litteraly carry her and sit her in the potty, and even if if was only ten percent that fell on the potty I would say " yayyyyyyy and sing and dance pipi in the potty, pipi in the potty" and then give her a treat or sticker.
After the second day she started doing it a lot better, by fourth day is was great but then she went thru a regression and stopped wanting to go for a few days but then got back on it.
At night well a lot of people say its to hard but I decided to try to do it all at once, so from day one of potty training I also night trained, I just put some pee wee pads under her blanket to protect the mattress and she peed her self for 4 days straight in till the 5th day she woke up in the am and started saying " pee pee, pee pee" and then she peed.
Yes, lots of laundry those four days, yes it was gross, but I think she hated feeling wet so decided to wait from me after the fourth day.
It's frustrating, overwhelming etc, but it takes time just like any other milestone.
The group here at bbc helped me the most ( nuts and bolts of toilet training)
Good luck

If you are not satified with the system Apple has a 14 day No Questions Asked return Policy for Full Refund. Take it back and get another and test that one. If you don't like that one do it again. If you can't find one you like after a few tries buy something else.

School band association celebrates 75th year
The Southern California School Band and Orchestra Association brings together music educators and provides not only in-service and conference opportunities for the educators, but also performance opportunities and honor groups for the benefit of the students.
This is a special year for SCSBOA, as it is celebrating its 75th year. The group held its Diamond Jubilee Conference the last weekend of January at the Disneyland Hotel.
The Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District has always been well represented in the leadership of SCSBOA. Past band directors Wayne Nelson and Rich Watson are honorary life members, along with former Visual and Performing Arts Coordinator Linda Owen.
The first vice president of SCSBOA is Yorba Linda Middle School's Music Director Dan Methe. Methe, who has served as SCSBOA's jazz education coordinator for the past four years, oversaw and coordinated this year's conference. It was his idea to coordinate the Jazz Honor Bands with the National Association of Music Merchants show at the Anaheim Convention Center.
Recognizing that music teachers and their students are the target audience for their efforts, NAMM opened its doors for SCSBOA to host its annual conference alongside the convention. NAMM provided numerous meeting rooms and staff for SCSBOA to provide professional growth opportunities to its members, as well as space for the Jazz Honor Groups to rehearse and perform. It proved to be a huge success.
"This has been a yearlong project," Methe said. "We had to make decisions on everything from the color of napkins and food choices to live performances and busing.
"This is a very meaningful activity and it is such a great feeling to be a part of something that affects music in such a positive way," he added.
During the conference, three of our district's music teachers – Phil Mortensen, Rita Watson and Dave Friedrichs – presented a session titled "Vertical Alignment – Bridging Elementary, Middle, and High School Music."
These three award-winning teachers explained how the district provides growth opportunities in each level. They also showed how the district's music teachers meet regularly to organize functions such as the District Band Pageant, as well as sharing best practices and discussing best music choices.
Every year, SCSBOA recognizes the achievements of its members and their contributions to music education by presenting the Gold Award of Recognition. Recipients are required to have served as a festival host, adjudicator, clinician and/or adviser. They must also have taught at one or more levels from elementary to high school and have produced quality musicians in their program. The recipient must have also served as a music educator and/or music administrator in Southern California for 10 or more years.
This year, Phil Mortensen was selected from a membership of more than 1,000 members to receive the honor. Mortensen has been involved in music education for 25 years as a high school band director, high school orchestra director, music administrator and, most recently, has stepped in to teach the concert bands at Kraemer Middle School.
Emily Deiters, who we previously reported is heading off to Europe in July with the People to People Student Ambassador program, is conducting a fundraiser for the trip.
With the Teddy Bear Adoption for the sick children at the Ronald McDonald House, Deiters will individually wrap each bear and attach a card that introduces the bear. Each bear is $10 and you can even name it if you wish.
The bears will be hand-delivered in batches to Ronald McDonald House of Orange County, where they will be distributed to children staying there and at Children's Hospital of Orange County.
If you would like to help Deiters and make a sick child smile, contact her at 714-693-3423 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Edgy Exegesis
Cowardice and Courage: Reflections on Palm/Passion Sunday
Since the coming king brings peace, Jesus' entry into Jerusalem is the perfect occasion to ascribe praise to God, the author of peace. In Luke 19:38, as the Hosannas fill the air and ascend upward, there is the ephemeral hope that "they get it!" and the sense that there is peace in heaven between God and humankind as a result of their exaltation of Jesus as king (Marshall, p. 716).
Tell Your Disciples to Be Quiet!
Some Pharisees have a different interpretation of the scene. They fear that it will lead to a messianic demonstration that will endanger Jesus' life and possibly their own safety. Luke notes several instances in his gospel of good turns done by Pharisees to Jesus, dinner invitations and warnings (Luke 7:36; 11:37; 14:1; 13:31-33).
The warning they give Jesus is only found in Luke: "Teacher, order your disciples to stop" (Luke 19:38).
Jesus replies, "I tell you, if these were silent, the stones would shout out" (Luke 19:40). In rabbinic writings there is a theme that stones cry out against those who do evil. In this context, the stones will cry out against the disciples for the sin of keeping silent. (Marshall, 716)
Appealing to the stones to cry out when the disciples fall silent is Jesus' way of affirming that God is on his side. Surely he has a strong inkling that many of those who say "Hosanna" today will be heading for the hills before long. There is a saying variously attributed to Franklin Delano Roosevelt and Nelson Mandela that "courage is not the absence of fear but the willingness to move into a challenge, fear and all." Then there is another saying: "When the going gets tough, the fickle get going." Ok, I made that saying up, but it fits this occasion. There is courage, embodied by the steady, sure course of Jesus' mission and there is cowardice, exemplified by the desertion of the disciples we can expect over the days of Holy Week. People are only fickle when they don't get what they want. If Jesus would be a real king, if he would promise military victory, good fortune, good health and good luck to all his backers, everyone would keep filling the skies with praises all day and all night, all week and all year.
Luke 19:37 tells us that the crowds were "praising God for all the deeds of power that they had seen." They were, I assume, talking about healings and feedings and exorcisms. They hadn't signed on for the slash of a whip or the pounding of a nail. Deeds of power didn't equate in their minds with a spirit of servanthood and humility that would lead to a cross.
It is much easier to pop in for Palm Sunday, and then pop out for Maundy Thursday and Good Friday before popping back in for the trumpets, the lilies, the new clothes and the candy on Easter Sunday. But somebody needs to stand by Jesus this year. Somebody needs to hang in there with him. Somebody needs to stay at his side as he is humiliated, beaten, mocked, and killed. Holy Week is our annual opportunity to choose courage over cowardice, to choose to be a shouting stone rather than a silent disciple. If we don't have the courage to stand by Jesus, who will? I don't know. Maybe we can find someone who will do so in our place. If we choose to be a silent disciple this year, lackadaisical in our devotion and lukewarm in our compassion, who will continue to praise Jesus to the skies? I don't know. Maybe we can find a stone, some brave person, who will shout hosannas to the King while every other voice mocks his name and he hangs, almost completely deserted, on a hill.

Additional Information
About ADIMLocated in Central America, ADIM is a small microfinance institution with a strong social focus.

Founded in 1989 by a small group of Nicaraguan women, this institution has remained true to its initial goal of providing its clients (90% of which are women) with an opportunity for economic growth, in addition to personal and professional empowerment. Supporting an ADIM borrower means contributing not only to the continued offering of the socially conscious services it provides, but also to the sustainable growth of a truly unique microfinance institution.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

April 2, 2011
TUCSON -- Washington State competitors won seven events and racked up 20 lifetime-best marks Saturday at the Jim Click Shootout Track and Field meet at the University of Arizona's Drachman Stadium.
In the men's team scoring, Ohio State won with 161 points followed by Minnesota with 157, Arizona with 156 points and Washington State with 151. Arizona claimed the women's team title with 176 points followed by Ohio State with 169, Washington State with 162, and Minnesota with 155.
"I am very proud of the way our team competed against the University of Arizona and the two Big Ten teams. We were leading at a certain point on both sides and we accomplished what we came here to do," WSU Head Coach Rick Sloan said. "We had some spectacular marks and some people really made significant improvements today."
WSU's Jeshua Anderson was a double winner taking the 110m hurdles with a wind-aided personal-best time of 13.86 seconds, and winning the 400m hurdles with a time of 49.33. He also anchored the winning 4x400m relay (3:10.07). In the intermediate hurdles, J Hopkins was the runner-up in a PR time of 51.23 and Dana Wells took fourth place with a PR time of 52.96.
Andrew Gonzales won the men's steeplechase with a time of 9:21.61 and Andrew Kimpel took third with a time of 9:43.68.
Holly Parent won the women's high jump with a PR leap of 6-feet, 3/4 inches (1.85m) which is the fourth-best height all-time for a Cougar woman high jumper. Arizona's Brigetta Barrett, the 2011 NCAA Indoor champion, finished second after also clearing 6-0 3/4 but missed on her first attempt at the final height as Parent cleared on the first attempt. WSU's Christine Rice took fourth place with her PR leap of 5-10 3/4 (1.80m) which is the eighth-best high jump in WSU history.
Marissa Tschida and Courtney Kirkwood went one-two in the women's javelin with Tschida, the defending Pacific-10 Conference champion, throwing 171-0 (52.13m) and Kirkwood finishing second with a throw of 169-5 (51.64m). The defending Big Ten Conference champion, Ohio State's Maggie Mullen, placed third with a throw of 152-9 (46.55m).
Anna Layman won the women's 800m in a season-best time of 2:06.95 and Courtney Zalud finished third in a time of 2:10.13.
Other top scorers for the Cougar women were Ashley Kenney taking second in the discus with a PR throw of 164-2 (50.04m), Kelsey Bueno and Kendall Mays finished second and third respectively in the pole vault after both cleared 12-0 (3.66m), and in the 3000m steeplechase, Caroline Austin was second (11:03.03) and Amanda Andrews third (11:35.07). Shawna Fermin's third place time in the 400m was a PR of 54.39 and ties for the eighth-best time in school records. Chanel James' 100m dash time of 11.82 (fourth) is tied for the fifth-fastest women's 100m time in WSU history.
Cougars scoring high on the men's side included Joe Abbott's second place in the 800m in a time of 1:49.16 while Matt Cronrath ran a PR time of 1:51.42 for third place. Brett Blanshan placed second in the 200m with a PR time of 21.07 and third in the 100m with a wind-aided PR time of 10.45. Nate Washington also had a good day in the sprints placing fourth in the 200m with a PR time of 21.30 and fifth in the 100m in a PR time of 10.51w. Kyle Stevens was the runner-up in the javelin with a toss of 199-11 (60.94m).
"I felt this was a great event. Fred Harvey and his staff at Arizona and Jim Click, the sponsor, really put on a great show. It was a great track and field meet under very warm, sunny skies," Sloan said. "We would have liked to have won but we had some great team performances and both the men's and women's teams have moved to base camp two on the summit of Everest. We have moved to a different plateau. We are ready to take that as our base platform and move to the next one."
The Cougars track and field teams will compete next weekend at the Texas Relays in Austin and at the Oregon-Washington Clash III hosted by Community Colleges of Spokane.

Dude. That is a freaking cool spider; reminds me of a gargoyle.
...Not a camera fan I guess. lol
Such a creepy looking bugger but such an amazing photo. A perfect moment for a spider photo! And as always, the details are amazing. I love how you can see it's beady little eyes (and quite creepy they are, I might add).
Love the colours too. The spider contrasts nicely against the purple flower.

Superb colors and a very scary spider make this photo hard to not fave.
What kind of spider is that? As long as it dosent live in Norway, i`m happy
Great shot

This is an crab spider or flower spider. I'm sure they do live in Norway not this color form maybe but they live, and they are totally harmless for humans.
really good composition & posture

State settles with debt collector on payday loans
New York state Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said the state settled with Forster & Garbus which agreed pay $10,000 in costs and penalties.
New York's attorney general has announced a settlement with Forster & Garbus, a Long island-based debt collection firm, to ensure it doesn't file court claims against New Yorkers to collect on so-called payday loans for small amounts at high interest rates.
State officials say such loans are illegal in New York, where the top legal interest rate is 16% for most lenders not licensed by the state.
Attorney General Eric Schneiderman says a company called NCEP, LLC placed consumer debts with Forster & Garbus for collection that included payday loans.
Under the agreement, the firm may not file to collect against a New Yorker without obtaining a copy of the loan document and determining it's not a payday loan.
It will also pay $10,000 in costs and penalties.

Secrets of Success
I was able to beat the snow. Thank Goodness.

Monday, December 09, 2013
Sunday night the Acupuncturists wife called and asked if we wanted to drive to Waterville 25 miles away from here on Monday morning. I knew we were expecting snow later in the morning but I still said YES PLEASE.
I was awake off and on, mostly because of our son's situation with his DW in the hospital and it is not going well. She had asked for pain pills and one nurse was just not being nice to my DDIL. on several occasions so needless to say DIL had to speak up. That brought a Dr to her bedside and there is a problem and now she has to go to back and do the procedure again tonight or tomorrow morning.
DH and I took off early today to go to my appointment and when I got back home it was just beginning to snow heavy in our area. We had not been in long when DDIL called and she told us this was going to happen. She sounded beside herself. Yesterday she was told she could go home but this new development means she will be staying in the hospital much longer.
Our grand kids and our son have to go to an out of town Dr today after work it was arranged that way so DIL is alone. This is not going well.
She always has their house decorated for Christmas she feels she has things to do and the stress level is just not good.
She was dreading the next surgery after the Holidays but now it is imminent she is so very upset. I was talking with her and I just wished I could hug her. She and I are in a place far away from family and just like myself I did almost everything with just our own family while DH worked very long hours. I know just how it is to be in that situation and I know that is what is disturbing my sleep, I should be able to help but I can not.
I send people cards just because they send them to us, happily they are all done.
I wish I could go to her but I know it is out of the question. I cannot talk to DH about this because it will just upset him because he can not drive for long in the snow. So here I am telling my Spark friends my thoughts.
There is no point calling over seas to my family we have rarely been back home and my family has never even seen her or our grand kids. It is written and I am reluctant to send it but I know I will have responses coming back to me so I will send it. When I get encouragement from my spark friends I will be able to think through what I need to say to our son and the grands. They will be out of town for a couple of hours and I feel sure our son has not even thought about eating or picking up medications for the grands. I sure wish I could get to them to pick up the slack but the weather alone is a Major deterrent from Maine to Upstate New York is simply out of the question with the weather outside..
My computer has a letter missing I hope spell check will add it for me. It is the first letter in the word --question --0uestion-- so we will see if spell check can help me out here. NO that does not help at all.
I found the word question elsewhere and cut and pasted it in . At least my brain is working.
Thanks it is time for me to make supper so my mind will have something easier to think about. Thanks Spark friends, Pat in Maine.

I remember one Christmas when my parents were having a hard time. The car had broken down and money was short. Mom said there would be no tree because there was no way to get one and no money to buy one. There was a local group that had trees for sale about a mile from our house. My brother and I got into our piggy banks and went there. It was only a few days until Christmas so the trees were pretty picked over and on sale, but we got one and carried it home. Sometimes adversity brings out the best in kids and Christmases to remember. I will always remember that scraggly tree. Your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

I hope things can look up for everyone. Hugs to all of you.

Priorities are not decorations.. Perhaps the kids will look back and remember this Christmas as the one that they realized just how much their mom does for them and the household.
Remember, there are two whole weeks until Christmas eve,, however ill these kids are that they are unable to decorate or help dad, maybe they will feel better soon. Prayer is the biggest gift anybody can give them when they are far away.
We can provide that for you and them.
remember, everything happens at a specific time FOR A REASON...

I am sorry to hear about your DIL's illness and know you feel bad that you can't be there to help out. Your son and children will be fine and things will get done as they have time. Yes, you have to take care of your eye so just hang in there and send prayers and talk to them on the phone, send them messages.
We had a dusting of snow last evening temp's have risen to the mid 30'sF. I am hunkered down for the duration, well stocked with food. This is a good day for a pot of chicken soup. The chicken is cooked and in the freezer so the soup won't take long to make.

Stay Safe you two....YOur son & DIL & Grandkids will work things out. I think DIL is getting help from you just being able to call you and use you as a sounding board~~maybe so she does not have to voice her fears & worries to your son?
So in a different way...YOU are helping Pat~

Remember you can only do so much. Do what you can, when you can and when you can't be there or do anything about the situation you just have to turn it over to others and pray about it. My thoughts are with you. This too shall pass.
Report Inappropriate Comment
Sorry to hear of your DDIL's illness. The weather has certainly been rough the last week or so and driving through the mountains is not a good idea in this weather. Try to keep in touch as best you can. You might consider whether taking a bus (assuming one goes that way) would work for you to get there. You wouldn't have to do the driving, but could still get there to help.
Otherwise just offer support as best you can and know that they surely have friends who will offer some support to them.
Take care and get some rest. Once you are able to travel you want to be healthy yourself in order to help out when you can.

so worrying for you having family sick & not being able to help out as much visited Plattsburgh once many years ago went by bus from NY. Please do not stress over not being able to help out as you want to pray it all works out

I must have missed what you said was wrong with your DDIL but I hope things get better for her. Have you thought about looking into flying there? Maybe you can talk to a travel agent or AAA to see how you can get there. Maybe the snow will stop soon and clear up so you can get there.

Pat, my heart goes out to you. It is so awful when you can't help especially those you love. I am praying for her and I will include the family. Stay strong. HUGS, Terry

Sorry to hear of your daughter-in-law going through all this. I know it is stressful for you to be away from your family at times like this. Our closest child & her family are still 5 hours away by car and over the mountains, so I understand.

These things happen sometimes. Just be there for your DIL on the phone.
Your son and grandchildren should be fine. they are growing up. Your son can put up decorations in place of her. Ifen if she came home she would not be able to decorate. I will say a prayer for your DIL.

I'm glad that you got to the acupuncturist.
Please try not to worry. I know that you want to help your son, DIL, and grandkids but sometimes it just isn't possible. You did a good job of raising your children and they will be okay.
I'm 70 miles from Ian and have to depend that he will take care of himself the best he can. I won't always be around and can't always help him. He may not do things the way I have but he chose to move away for economic reasons, like your children did. He lost his support when he did but that it is part of life. We often lose something to gain something else.
If things get really bad I would hope that your children would move back to Maine so that you can help them. We have told Ian that if he needs us we are here and he can always move back home if he needs to and I'm sure your children know they can as well.

Sure do hope life gets better for you.

Pat, honey, do what you can do and turn the rest over to God or whatever religion you believe in. Continue to offer love & support through prayer, cards or calls, whatever you feel comfortable doing. We will always listen.

This is a very difficult situation for you, I know. There is no way you can get to your DDIL or your son so you just have to accept that for now. You need to keep in touch with them and see if there is anything you can do from where you are. Plus, you need to be careful of your eye. Let them know you love them and will do what you can. They understand. they love you. They don't want to put you in jeopardy.

Pat, this weather is terrible and there is no way you and DH should be on the road. I'm trying to figure out how to get up to see mom and dad. This time of year is not easy. So sorry that things have not gone well for her. With the holidays here that has to make it even more stressful for everyone. Are there any friends nearby that could give them a hand?
Thinking of you and your family and sending extra hugs and prayers.

You know you cannot go to your daughter in law right now so try not to stress over it. I know that is easier said than done but we don't you making yourself ill over something you have no control over.
I'm glad you are home safely from your own appointment.
Report Inappropriate Comment
Try not to stress yourself, Pat. Much as you would like to help, there's no way you can get there. If they have lived there for a while, perhaps there is a neighbour who can help, or some kind of social service agency they can call on. visiting nurses or home care?
Glad you were able to get home from your appointment before the snow started today. Driving in the winter is no fun.
Take care, and try to rest,
Hugs, Gail

Nagging minor injury has me frustrated, so trying to cheer up with a new build. Haven't ridden it yet, so sizing not dialed in. I had plans to paint it, and still might, but I don't mind the matte black... even if it is being done to death by dudes on their luxury/exotic cars.

The banking was ridiculous. Kissena's gonna feel dull after this.
Yeah, that's why I phrased it so weakly. It is probably more just new bike phenomenon, not dialed in perfectly yet. And to be honest, the session today I didn't notice it like the first session. I retract the assessment until further review.

This is a long thread, so I just read the OP.
I totally get what you are saying--it can be rather annoying.
But, for the same reason they are here asking those silly questions, they do not realize they are silly. In my life as a programmer I have met at least hundreds of people who have the "next killer app" idea and offer to let me in for a tiny slice if I'll just build it for them.
It might be more polite, respectful and effective to intervene during new-member sign-up with a statement about our ethos and some examples of what we consider contribution vs. spam.
People ignore that kind of stuff. For example, look at the big stickied post in the for beginners forum. It specifically states to check the FAQ, but it's obvious no one actually reads it before posting.
Otherwise I agree.

FSX Co-Pilot
Posted 16 June 2008 - 05:54 AM
This is my first post on this forum.
What i am looking for is a program that acts as a co-pilot in FSX. What i would like to be able to do is say "Gear down" and the program put the gear down and then respond "Confirming gear down" or something like that.
What programs out there would you recommend?
This would be much appreciated as i use this as a training aid and sometimes it gets a bit much doing everything.
Thanks for your help

Though IYP is a sure shot and possibly the better engine in its kind, there has also a new Check List Manager program from Jan 2009. Looks interesting but only few payware aircrafts are supported, not the default ones.
It looks okay Ben, but it's not really close to IYP in functionality.
IYP is a voice-controlled application that will literally fly the AC for you from start to finish (if you want it to, but that's optional, and you can use IYP as a co-pilot if you'd like to share the cockpit duties). In fact, it's now possible for people of limited sight (or even blind) to use it. As far as I know, that's never been done before, and prior to IYP, it would have been considered an impossible task.
IYP will even show a newbie how to fly the aircraft and which switches (are where they are located) to push. It's really in a league of its own and I don't know of any other program that will do as much as it does.

I particularly like the very realistic auto-pilot dialing. I downloaded and installed the free demo, and it works well, only thing i am not sure is support for PMDG aircraft.

Posted 31 January 2009 - 08:39 AM
All the others are either performing only part of it, or perform 'cosmetic' things such as (repetitive) cockpit and/or passenger background noises (something that IYP doesn't do). None of them let you fly the plane BY your co-pilot with you commanding her/his actions... hands-off as it were, which is the maximum that IYP can do for you. And just about anything else from there to having you in fullcommand with the co-pilot just gazing out of the side window

Demonstrating my hammerlock on the obvious: stuff that's dependent on Snow Leopard is not viable, nor is core software that's no longer maintained by the vendor. Apple isn't particularly known for offering AppleCare past three years, hardware parts past five or seven years, and maintaining software more than one OS X release back.
Escalate this to your manager, and encourage your management chain sort this out. (These are the decisions that management gets paid to make, after all.)
Whether that's operating as a guest in VM as an interim measure pending an application migration (with trackpad issues or not), or acquiring older Mac systems as an interim measure, or the eventual platform migration....
The trackpad behavior might be an issue with the VM; certainly worth a question to those folks.

It has already been posted and waiting a reply on the Parallels support forum...

Guess What!
I managed to install OS X 10.6.8 on my MacBook Pro Retina by booting it in Target Disk Mode from my MacPro desk top model and installing from there. It will boot as an external drive and run my Mac Pro, But will not boot on its own and run the MBP Retina. So this just proves that the hardware in the MBP Retina is not suitable for the Snow Leapard OsX.
This is really frustrating for me too as I have a Avid Mbox 2 audio interface that will only run in OsX before Lion and Avid are really dragging there heals in updating the Drivers for the Mbox 2 rto work in Mountain Lion. I want to use my MBPR for mobile recording and I don't want to have to buy a new Audio Interface. It would help if Avid were to give a release date but they haven't yet. Does anyone know if the Mbox will work with VM ware on the MBPR?

I also would like to run Snow on one of the new Macbooks, because I don't like Lion or Mountain Lion, and because most audio manufacturers are slow to upgrade drivers for new Mac operating systems. To have my audio setup in Snow with a quad-core would be nice. I run Logic 9 in Snow thru an M-Audio Firewire Solo. A Hackintosh is another possibility to run my audio setup in a quad-core but stability issues might become a plague. Other users are right to point out vitrual solutions; however, these are rarely acceptable to audio needs.
