This beautifully decorated medical spa in Charlotte, N.C., not only has a full-time onsite cosmetic surgeon, but Jon Ric Medical Spa and Wellness Center's primary focus is on total body wellness. Combined with a clean, modern décor and lavish services — it's safe to say that this is not your typical spa.
In addition to being brand new and beautiful, Jon Ric Medical Spa is conveniently located in the center of three prominent areas: Dillworth (bungalow-style homes and stately oak trees line the residential streets here, while a diverse mix of shops and restaurants compete for attention in this area), South Park (one of Charlotte's largest business and residential neighborhoods), and Meyers Park (one of the city's most prestigious addresses). Being nestled in the middle of these three areas brings in a diverse clientele allowing the spa to cater to individual needs, combining expertise in the medical world, with practitioners in nail and skin care fields — a true mixture of health and beauty.

An iPod charger delivers less power than the iPad's own charger does - does the iPad's own charger not work ? You should still be able to charge the iPad with an iPod charger, but it will take a lot longer, and you may need to leave it in sleep mode and not use it whilst charging
You could see if it charges any quicker after the iPad has restarted : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.)

stupid ? for you guys. Went down some local dirt roads tonight. noticed the back end moving around a lot. The road was a little rocky but not bad. I need a new rear tire but have not got one yet. Would a new tire make it not move around as much or is it just the road?
Also where is a good place to get a rear tire put on?

I just for curiosity felt my cervix today, and its very very soft and open enough that I could put my middle finger inside almost halfway to the first knuckle without even pushing. Is it supposed to be like this at 32 weeks, or is this an early warning for preterm labor? I don't have a doctor's visit for another week. Should I move it up? I'm not having any contractions, no bloody shows, everything seems same old pregnancy stuff.
Being a FTM, I get very very worried about every unexpected symptom of my pregnancy. I'm hoping people will tell me that this is normal and I don't need to worry.

The Emacs extension markerpen.el (link text) allows you to hightlight arbitrary regions in your buffer. With this extension, the added highlighting is lost once you kill the buffer though. However, it would be nice to be able to highlight arbitrary regions of a file in a "persistent" way -- in the sense that the added hightlighting is not lost after I close the file.
Do you know of any way I could have such a "persistent" highlighting?
Thanks very much.

I've been dealing with this issue for more than a month. I don't know why their programmers can't get with apple to find a workaround. Some people are able to create a playlist and that works, but mine just creates greyed out titles with download symbols next to them. It may work for two or three files, but then it goes to grey. Arrgghh! This has occupied so much of my time. I'm trying to listen to a 24 part book and have resorted to carrying around my old laptop in the car. Lame! I wish they could make it so wma files could download just like the mp3s. I'd even pay a yearly fee if I could do it wirelessly without these hours and hours of downloads.

I just tried reloading Overdrive and it seems to be working better now. I also downloaded the app for my iPod touch and it works quite well. I have even listened to it in overdrive and it works. I recommend redownloading Overdrive and see if it works. I have to go into the file on my iPod and change it to an audiobook and then it is in my books. Try that and see if it is a universal solution or if I just lucked out... I hope it works for you.
Puertokelly Nov 17, 2011 6:12 PM
in response to bubm
My problem is not with the app, but with the transfer of wma files to my iPhone. Overdrives advice was to download one part at a time. Ridiculous! It still isn't working for me though. Sigh!

I find this totally unacceptable. I purchase one of the most popular audio playback devices and they blame Apple???
Maybe the ADA and othe rights organiztions should be made aware that the City and Universities that all subscribe to Overdrive are not friendly to the physically challenged!!
Puertokelly Dec 31, 2011 5:57 PM

Have you heard any more from them Seattlezoid? I am still struggling with downloading audiobooks. 1part at a time doesn't even work all of the time. It has been MONTHS. Why doesn't this work better yet?
Seattlezoid Jan 2, 2012 7:45 AM
in response to Puertokelly
I have not heard anything new about this problem. I don't think Overdrive Media support cares that thousands of Apple devices now don't use the Audiobook function of the device.
Loosing bookmarks and not putting parts in proper order is not acceptable. This has got to
be fixed by Overdrive not Apple!!!
bubm Jan 2, 2012 3:48 PM
in response to Puertokelly
Have you tried uninstalling and then reinstalling Overdrive? That is what I had to do. I also just recently did a complete restore on my computer and I still have not had any problems. If you try it make sure to go online and download the newest version of it.
DMenc Jan 6, 2012 6:17 PM
in response to bubm
I can't get my library audio books to transfer either. I am using
Windows 7
iTunes 10.5.2.11
iPod Nano 3rd Gen.
I updated the Windows Media Player for some security patch. Oh and btw, had to do that in IE because the button won't click in Firefox!
When I try to transfer an audiobook file (even just one) I get this error message:
iTunes could not copy "Book-Part01" to the iPod because the file could not be found.
If I do nothing I get the following error message from ODM:
OverDrive Media Console Transfer Wizard is not able to connect to iTunes. If you intend to transfer content to the iTunes Library and/or a supported Apple device, please note that iTunes v9.0.2 (or newer) is required. If your system meets this requirement, please close any open iTunes dialog boxes then attempt to transfer again. (error 0x80080005)
If I click "OK" on the iTunes error message before getting the ODM error message the transfer appears to complete; I can see the playlist below my device in iTunes. But when I look on the physical iPod, the playlist isn't there.
One other note: My husband has sucessfully transferred a book to his iPod (same model as mine) using ODM and iTunes. The difference is that he is still using XP.
DMenc Jan 17, 2012 7:40 AM
in response to DMenc
I solved the problem and this may work for others who are having similiar problems. ODM suggests that you change the Import Setting in iTunes to "spoken podcast" to reduce the size of the files. I didn't care about that so hadn't made the change. As it turns out that is crucial because at the higher quality setting ODM takes so long to convert the file from WMA to AAC that iTunes gives up and concludes that the file couldn't be found. Once I changed that setting I was able to import library books onto my iPod. Now my only complaint is that when I re-sync my iPod all of the books go away even if they haven't expired on ODM.
robin 10 Feb 17, 2012 5:22 PM
in response to DMenc
I was so excited to see your solution... Unfortunately, it didn't work for my iPhone 4.
I may end up purchasing a Kindle for my audiobooks seeing as there doesn't seem to be any desire to fix this problem by either company. The frustration of trying to download these books has me steaming! I need them for my daily commute so I keep trying and trying and trying.....
Puertokelly Feb 18, 2012 3:37 AM
in response to bubm
Robin, I have the 4S too. Here's wha I've been doing. Well, I am downloading wma books, but it is super time consuming and annoying. First, shut off genius in your preferences in iTunes. Also change to spoken podcast for speed. Then, you start to transfer from Overdrive. It will create a playlist with your book title. Open up books though because you need to keep an eye on it. It may download like three parts and then you may have a grey one. When you get the grey, cancel the transfer, delete the greyed part, exit iTunes, re-enter iTunes, and then try to download the remaining book parts. I usually have to re-enter iTunes three or four different times during a book. When your book is downloaded, all black and none grey, open up the playlist folder and double check that all parts made it in there. If not, carry them from the books folder to the playlist and then move it into numerical order.
Re non bookmarking problem. I now have a new habit of checking what part I am on before i shut off my phone or switch to another book. It does save where you were, it just doesn't show you. For instance, if I start part three and then play music, and then go back to the book playlist, it will appear as if we are back to the beginning, but if I go to part three, it will start up from where I was. So, just start checking and then it is easy. I am flabbergasted that no other proper solution has been offered by Overdrive. This has been a problem since October. I also wish they would acknowledge the problem on their website as well as post what version number of update they have. I have 22.214.171.124 and think that's current. Does anyone have newer than this. Good luck, and happy commuting!
An easy, quick workaround is to plug external speakers into your laptop and take it with you in the car. A bit unwieldy, but I can't commute without books.
robin 10 Feb 19, 2012 10:42 PM
in response to Puertokelly
Puertokelly - Thank you! That actually worked! It took a while, but my entire book is loaded. I am soooo happy to have a book for tomorrow's drive.
Thanks also for the info on bookmarking. I had the same frustration with losing my place when I listened to music - it's great to know it's not totally lost, and I just have to know the part to open. I had noticed that myself - by accident, but hadn't really thought it through as a consistent solution....
Thank you so much!
Happy commuting to you too.
Seattlezoid Mar 8, 2012 9:32 AM
in response to Seattlezoid
Unfortunately the new apple ios 5.1 relased yesterday did not fix the empty audio book
features of the ipod.
Books still load as a playlist so you loose your bookmark if you play another playlist and try to go back to where you last listened....very annoying. Come on folks at Overdirve please fix your BUG!!!!!!
SkyQueen Mar 10, 2012 4:16 PM
in response to bubm
Ok - This is wierd. I was having the same issue of new books (WMA) loading (with Overdrive) going to playlists not books. Well, I tried to load a chapter using my husbands pc instead of mine. The new chapter loaded to playlists just like before...but when I looked at the books that had been in playlists, they had magically appeared in books. How did that happen?

No reports of overdosage with GlucaGen® have been reported. If overdosage occurs, the patient may experience nausea, vomiting, inhibition of GI tract motility, increase in blood pressure and pulse rate. In case of suspected overdosing, the serum potassium may decrease and should be monitored and corrected if needed. If the patient develops a dramatic increase in blood pressure, phentolamine mesylate has been shown to be effective in lowering blood pressure for the short time that control would be needed.
GlucaGen® is contraindicated in patients with:
- Known hypersensitivity to glucagon, lactose or any other constituent in GlucaGen®
- Pheochromocytoma [see WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS]

The roadway is now clear, after an overnight accident causes a semi to tip over. It happened on Bobby Jones -- between Gordon Highway and Deans Bridge Road. Our crew headed to the scene a little after three this morning. The semi driver we talked with, says a car was in the middle of the road with its lights off. He tried to swerve, and ended up on the side of the road. Richmond County dispatch is not giving us any details at this time. But they do say an ambulance went to the scene, but authorities are not sure if there were any injuries. Continue to log on, for the latest updates.

Jann Wenner: Obama 'Needs to Make Some Course Corrections'
"I realize he's got a hard job," the 'Rolling Stone' founder says.
In a thoroughly rah-rah feature Sunday, the Times praised Rolling Stone for "hitting its journalistic stride" as of late, citing the recent McChrystal piece as well as last summer's Goldman Sachs take down. The Times notes that the resurgence of Rolling Stone's critical eye — its "more antagonistic tack" — comes under a president the magazine (and founder/editor Jann Wenner) enthusiastically supported, timing that is not lost on Wenner.
"Mr. Wenner said he had been emboldened by what he described as a sense of disappointment over Mr. Obama's first 18 months in office. 'I'm for Obama, but I think he needs to make some course corrections,' Mr. Wenner said. The unforgiving and hard-nosed publisher then mustered about as much sympathy as he could and added, 'I realize he's got a tough job.'"
And to think just a few years ago the two were kicking back and chatting about Deadheads and their favorite Dylan songs.

SWCA Environmental Consultants said Wednesday that it is opening an office in Baton Rouge to meet the needs of energy and other clients with operations along the Gulf Coast.
The office will provide environmental permitting, regulatory compliance and planning services, the Phoenix-based company said.
Richard Greig will manage the office's team of environmental specialists.
"We have done work in Louisiana since 1998 based out of our Houston operation," said Texas and Gulf Coast Senior Principal Brian Fairchild, who has managerial oversight for the new operations.
"Now, formally establishing a Baton Rouge office allows us to expand our presence in oil and gas markets in Louisiana and along the Gulf Coast. Baton Rouge's strategic location also positions SWCA to provide environmental consulting services for coastal restoration and state and local government projects in the region."

Jerusalem expands campaign to take out homes of militants
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip An Israeli missile ripped through a two-story home in Gaza City on Sunday, killing at least 11 civilians in the single deadliest attack of Israel's offensive against rocket-firing Islamic militants.
A similar scene unfolded elsewhere in the city early today, when an airstrike leveled two houses belonging to a single family, killing two children and two adults and injuring 42 people, said Gaza heath official Ashraf al-Kidra. Rescue workers were searching for survivors under the rubble.
Israeli military officials said the attacks were focused on homes where militant leaders or weapons were believed to be hidden.
Ismail Haniyeh, the prime minister of the militant Hamas faction that rules Gaza, condemned the attack Sunday as a "massacre" that "exceeded all expectations."
Brig. Gen. Yoav Mordechai, chief spokesman for the Israeli military, said it was "examining the event."
"The wanted (militant) in this case was responsible for firing dozens of rockets into Israel," he added. "I do not know what happened to him, but I do know that we are committed to the safety of the citizens of Israel."
While the airstrikes relentlessly targeted militant rocket operations, Israeli gunboats unleashed heavy fire at militant facilities on Gaza's coastal road.
The bloodshed was likely to raise pressure on Israel to end the fighting, even as it pledged to intensify the offensive by striking more homes of wanted militants. High numbers of civilian casualties in an offensive four years ago led to fierce criticism and condemnation of Israel.
In all, 81 Palestinians, nearly half of them civilians, have been killed in the five-day operation and 720 have been wounded. Three Israeli civilians have died from Palestinian rocket fire and dozens have been wounded.
President Barack Obama said he was in touch with players across the region in hopes of halting the fighting.
Beginning an Asia visit, the president said he supported Israel's "right to defend itself," but also said "if that can be accomplished without a ramping up of military activity in Gaza, that's preferable." And he described an urgent international effort to secure a cease-fire, saying, "We're going to have to see what kind of progress we can make in the next 24, 36, 48 hours."
U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon urged the two warring parties to achieve an immediate cease-fire. He said he was heading to the region to appeal personally for an end to the violence, but no date was given in the U.N. statement for his arrival.
On the ground, there were no signs of any letup in the fighting as Israel announced it was widening the offensive to target Hamas' military commanders.
The Israeli military carried out dozens of airstrikes throughout the day.
Palestinian militants continued to barrage Israel with rockets, firing more than 100 on Sunday, and setting off air raid sirens across the southern part of the country. Some 40 rockets were intercepted by Israel's Iron Dome rocket-defense system, including two that targeted the metropolis of Tel Aviv. At least 10 Israelis were wounded by shrapnel.
Israel's decision to step up its attacks in Gaza marked a new and risky phase of the operation, given the likelihood of civilian casualties in the densely populated territory of 1.6 million Palestinians. Israel launched the offensive Wednesday in an effort to end months of intensifying rocket fire from the Gaza Strip.
In Sunday's deadliest violence, the Israeli navy fired at a home where it said a top militant was hiding. The missile struck the home of the Daloo family in Gaza City, reducing the structure to rubble.
Rescuers, bolstered by bulldozers, pulled the bodies of children from the ruins of the house, including a toddler and a 5-year-old, as survivors and bystanders screamed in grief. Later, the bodies of the children were laid out in the morgue of Gaza City's Shifa Hospital.

KKR 'Obvious Choice' Among Buyout Stocks
TheStreet) KKR & Co. (KKR - Get Report)shares are the clear standout among those of publicly traded private equity companies, according to a report published late Thursday by Oppenheimer analyst Chris Kotowski. Kotowski maintained his "outperform" rating on KKR and "perform" ratings on The Blackstone Group (BX - Get Report) and Fortress Investment Group (FIG - Get Report) . Also on Thursday, he initiated coverage on Carlyle Group (CG - Get Report) and Apollo Global Management (APO - Get Report), giving both stocks a "perform" rating. While he argues it is "still a little too early to be broadly bullish on the group," Kotowski sees "great potential over a three- to five-year term" for the sector.KKR is the "obvious choice on a number of fronts," Kotowski argues. Particularly attractive, he states is that, unlike the other buyout firms, KKR has no return hurdles it must clear before generating performance-related fees. Kotowski's report made no mention of an investigation by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman accusing several private equity firms of tax evasion, including Apollo, KKR, Carlyle and Blackstone. Those firms are also named in a private antitrust lawsuit filed in a Federal District Court in Boston in 2007 that continues to generate headlines. Publicly-traded private equity firms' shares are different from those of many other public companies. Investors in the companies, for example, cannot throw out management if they are unhappy with performance. -- Written by Dan Freed in New York. Follow @dan_freedNEW YORK (

Featured review from the reflective viewerRed Velvet

It is called improv but is actually a mix of 70 percent skits and 30 percent improv. Given I generally find thought out comedy better than shoot from the hip this was a good choice. 5 or 6 players are quite good even though labeled as Next or backup. A couple are first rate and none less than good.
The first half of this show was shaky with some failed improvs and some barely coherent skits but enough clever moments and songs to do fine and the second half was shorter and much better written. Given the good value and great neighborhood it seems an easy choice for an impromptu night of Improv.

Fun show, comfortable seats, nice atmosphere. Will definitely go again

The show is a mix of planned skits and improv. Some were very quick, others seemed to go on a bit too long. Some were funny, some so-so, some just "out there". Atmosphere is high energy.
These performances are not recommended for those age 16 or younger.

In a letter released this week and coordinated by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) and other major trade associations, nearly 300 U.S. state and local organizations urged swift action to renew Trade Promotion Authority (TPA). The organizations that signed the letter represent millions of companies and workers from every sector of the economy, and every state in the country. Read More
Improving border security is an essential part of immigration reform for the United States. Our current system incentivizes illegal immigrants to remain in the U.S. while providing few opportunities for them to engage in the legal immigration system. As a matter of national security we need to know who is coming into our country and if they pose a threat. Creating a truly functional immigration program for lesser-skilled workers is the most effective way to achieve this important goal. We need to take away the incentive to come to and stay in the United States illegally and the best way to do that is to create a legal framework to manage it. By creating a legal system, we can be assured we know exactly who is here as well as allow temporary workers to return to their native country instead of being forced to live in the shadows for years on end. Under the current system, or lack of one, workers are incentivized to obtain false documents and unable to return home for fear that they will not be able to get back to in the US. Read More
Unless or until it's stopped, the National Labor Relations Board regulation that denies employees time to consider whether to join a union by putting union elections on an inappropriately fast track will go into effect on April 14th. This is troubling to manufacturers because there is scant evidence anywhere that the union election process needs to be sped up at all and the regulation would force employers to turn over closely guarded personal information such as an employee's cell phone number and work schedule.

Enough is enough. We're all for an honest debate, but a small group of trade critics are putting out some whoppers in an effort to derail the momentum behind Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), a longstanding procedural partnership between Congress and the Administration that enables the United States to conclude and implement new Free Trade Agreements (FTA) that open markets for our manufacturers.
Groups like Public Citizen, however, are promoting distorted information about our country's manufacturing trade surplus with its 20 FTA partners. Read More

From The Hill, "Business groups likely to align with president in debt-ceiling fight":
"We have been very upfront. We support an increase in the debt limit. We need to meet our obligations," said Dorothy Coleman, vice president of tax and domestic economy policy for the NAM. "There is a huge downside to default."
NAM remains neutral on the question of attaching a long-term deficit-reduction plan to the debt-ceiling vote.
"We have been neutral on how it gets done. Our interest is that it does get done in a timely fashion," Coleman said.
The National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) today launched a campaign to put a human face on the unprecedented expansion of federal regulations coming from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Manufacturing is leading the way in America's recovery, adding thousands of jobs every week. But the flood of regulations pouring down from the EPA will mean higher prices for energy and impose enormous costs throughout the economy.
Manufacturers pay utility bills like everyone else. When residential energy costs go up, families have less money to buy things like clothes and groceries. When energy costs go up for manufacturers, we have less money to invest – and to hire people.
We're releasing these new ads as Congress considers legislation to block the EPA's proposed regulating of greenhouse gas emissions. No federal agency should have the authority to simply mandate such a radical, nationwide restructuring of energy use – and force people to pay higher energy prices – without a vote of the elected branch of government, Congress.
Manufacturers already have invested billions of dollars to comply with federal regulations. We embrace common-sense approaches to ensure a clean and healthy environment.
Unfortunately, the EPA's greenhouse gas regulations are only the biggest, most economically damaging of its many proposals. Whether it's mining, transportation, farming, or manufacturing, the EPA is rolling out mandates that make it tougher for businesses in America to compete in the global marketplace, and tougher for people to make ends meet.
As our ads asks, "Manufacturing has always provided good jobs that support our local economies. But times are tough. So why is the EPA pushing new regulations that could force businesses to close, making times tougher, increasing costs and prices for goods and services?"
The NAM's new TV and radio ads are just the beginning of a sustained educational campaign about the EPA's excessive regulations and their effect on the U.S. manufacturing economy.
To learn more about this campaign and the damaging effects of the EPA's proposed regulations, please visit www.NoNewRegs.org.

From the news release announcing the creation of the Bi-National Manufacturing Coalition, "Bi-National Manufacturing Coalition Praises Leaders on Border Vision":
WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLOMBIA and OTTAWA, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – Feb. 4, 2011) – Leading U.S. and Canadian manufacturing associations have announced the formation of the B3 – Businesses for a Better Border – a manufacturing coalition to advise both governments on policies for perimeter security, regulatory compliance and economic competitiveness.
Manufacturers, and their integrated supply chains, face growing transactional compliance hurdles when shipping goods across our shared border. This threatens manufacturing competitiveness, dampens export growth, and stifles job creation in both countries.
Today's announcement by President Obama and Prime Minister Harper on their shared objectives is an important step forward in addressing the needs of manufacturers in the integrated Canadian/U.S. economy. B3 applauds the two governments for their announcement today of a shared vision for perimeter security and economic competitiveness.
B3 is steered by the American Automotive Policy Council (AAPC), Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters (CME), Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers' Association (CVMA), and the U.S. National Association of Manufacturers (NAM). As one can tell from the membership, a major focus will be the integration and effective cooperation of the automobile industry on both sides of the border. Good time to build a new connection between Windsor and Detroit — the Gordie Howe International Bridge sounds good.
Also, from the White House on Friday, "Joint Statement by President Obama and Prime Minister Harper of Canada on Regulatory Cooperation":
Today, President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Stephen Harper have directed the creation of a United States-Canada Regulatory Cooperation Council (RCC), composed of senior regulatory, trade, and foreign affairs officials from both governments. In recognition of our $1 trillion annual trade and investment relationship, the RCC has a two-year mandate to work together to promote economic growth, job creation, and benefits to our consumers and businesses through increased regulatory transparency and coordination.
From The Business Roundtable, "Business Roundtable Names John Engler President":
Washington – Business Roundtable, an association of chief executive officers of leading U.S. companies, today announced that it has named former Gov. John Engler as its President, effective January 15, 2011.
Engler currently is President and CEO of the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), the largest manufacturing association in the U.S. A former three-term governor of Michigan, Engler has been NAM president since October 1, 2004.
As NAM president, Engler has been a leading advocate for the nearly 12 million Americans employed directly in manufacturing, educating the public and policymakers on issues that affect this critical sector of the U.S. economy. Under Engler, the NAM has had unprecedented growth and has boosted its dues revenues by 28 percent.
"As a Governor, John forged progressive public policy. As the NAM's President, he has been an effective, articulate spokesman for manufacturing. He has championed U.S. competitiveness around the world – often working arm-in-arm with Business Roundtable – and has tirelessly advocated policies that create jobs in the U.S. Respected in Washington on both sides of the aisle, John has spurred NAM to grow in both size and influence, even as its members faced difficult economic times. His leadership skills, policy expertise and broad background in both the public and private sectors uniquely qualify him to be BRT's new president.

Ok i want complete honesty here. I know people say how there's still hope til AF shows and stuff but it seems that, at least from what i can tell, most people who get a bfp and test with a FRER get a BFP..even if its very faint..by 10 dpo. I tested yesterday at 10 dpo and it was stark white negative...i could even see the indent line and it was solid white. It was the only test in the box (left over from last month). Is there really any use in buying another box at this point or should i just wait for AF to come? Does anyone really ever get a total BFN on FRER at 10 dpo then go on to get a BFP that cycle? This is marks one year ttc #1 and while i know that's not nearly as long as many of you ladies on here i am starting to get really discouraged and just need some hope i guess.
FRER BFN 10 dpo
Or just mount him. See what he does. There might be a tazer, or he might let you stay on. Worth the gamble 100% -SmilingSparkling

If I were you I would just wait a few more days if AF doesn't show up in a couple days then it maybe worth checking again. I'll KMFX she doesn't show up but as hard as it is to accept I would agree with you, I would think a FRER would show up as a BFP at 10DPO. Although maybe you aren't exactly 10DPO maybe its too early, i guess there is always hope... GOOD LUCK

I'd just wait until the expected AF date before buying another test. I've tested with FRER early, like day 10 & 12 and gotten nothing, only to get AF a day or two later. When I got my BFP with DD I was 2 days late on an FRER and had a faint line, so I guess it is possible to have very little hormone detectable at 10 dpo, but in terms of should you pick up another test, I'd probably wait until I was late if I were you.
Well I have seen lots of ladies get BFN at 10DPO and then get BFPs later...I know its tough. Seriously, I feel your pain! But MAYBE just MAYBE you implanted later than you think...so there is still a chance! Hang in there hun. It really isnt over until the red witch makes her visit!

I used FRERs when I got pregnant with DD. First one I took, I was 10 DPO and it was BFN. I took another after AF was 2 days late and BFP! So don't give up hope yet!

Just to tell you, I couldn't get a BFP until 14 dpo with all of my pregnancies. So, I would try again in a few days. Good luck

Ok thanks girls. AF is due Sunday so i guess i will hold out then and see what happens. Every month i say i'm not gonna test early and every month i do anyway. I am staying away from all stores till Sunday! Lol Thats the only way i can do it. I'd rather see AF than another BFN anyway...they are so heartbreaking.
Or just mount him. See what he does. There might be a tazer, or he might let you stay on. Worth the gamble 100% -SmilingSparkling
With my DD, I had a neg on a FRER at 10 DPO and a pos at 12 DPO. It was so faint of a line I didn't believe it until I took another one at 14 DPO that was darker. With this baby, I had a clear pos at 11 DPO. Hope that helps!

It all depends on when implantation happens. It can happen as late as 12 dpo. It then takes 3-5 days to show on a hpt.

Embryonic Stem Cell-Derived Hemangioblasts for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Reconstitution
Blood diseases and cancers can in some cases be cured by transplantation of the stem cells that develop into the various types of blood cells. At present stem cell transplantation relies on the use of donated cells from the bone marrow or umbilical cord blood, but locating and obtaining suitable donated cells is in many cases difficult or impossible; this problem is especially prominent in some minority groups. This project aims to explore methods that may lead to the use of human embryonic stem (hES)-derived blood stem cells as a substitute for donated cells in blood stem cell transplantation. Preliminary work demonstrates that cells with the characteristics of blood cell precursors can be isolated from hES cells that have been allowed to differentiate in culture, but we need to know much more about these cells before their use in patients could be considered. We will carry out a series of investigations of these cells, as an approach to the goal of using them in clinical stem cell transplantation. Because the current methods of deriving the stem cells from hES cells are cumbersome and small-scale, we will work to develop methods that will allow large-scale preparation with simplified procedures suitable for clinical work. We will investigate the development of a variety of marker proteins on the surface of the stem cells as they develop, thereby aiding isolation of subtypes of cells, and also helping us to understand how they may interact with the immune system of the recipient individual. We will use an established model in which human blood cells can develop in the mouse in order to assess the ability of the hES-derived cells to develop into the many types of blood cell. Work to date has focused on one type of hES-derived blood cell precursor. In order to expand the possible utility of these cells, we will seek new types of blood cell precursors in populations of cells derived from hES cells. This proposal has the potential to lead to the production of cells that can be used in clinical blood stem cell transplantation, which would transform the procedure and make it available to many more individuals.
Very large numbers of individuals in California are afflicted with diseases that can be cured or ameliorated by transplantation of blood stem cells; these include, for example, sickle cell disease and leukemia. Nevertheless the application of blood stem cell transplantation is limited because stem cells must be donated by individuals, and because it is necessary to match certain characteristics of the donor's and host's immune systems. Blood stem cells can be derived from human embryonic stem (hES) cells. Such hES-derived cells could become a substitute for donated stem cells, but before this is possible it will be necessary to know much more about their characteristics, and to develop means of producing them in quantities sufficient for clinical use. The experiments we propose are an approach to the goal of making hES-derived stem cells that can be used in clinical blood stem cell transplantation. Successful completion of these experiments will allow us to make judgments about the feasibility of using these hES-derived cells in patients, and may thus contribute to the goal of making blood stem cell transplantation available to a much broader group of patients.

De La Jolie Musique, led by songwriter, arranger and multi-instrumentalist Erwann Corré, make lush, orchestrated music in the vein of Jean-Claude Vannier, Francois de Roubaix, Eumir Deodato and John Barry; think violins, brass, plopping 70s Fender bass, choirs and wah-wah guitars.
Plein Soleil, one of the highlights from the album Memoire Tropical, is particularly Melody Nelson-esque thanks to the use of choir, trumpet and a long, long intro. It might be raining outside, with this beautiful music, the sun sets every night in a golden haze.

Chained CPI idea is out of touch
One of the worst ideas to surface in Washington lately—and that is saying something—is the proposal to cut Social Security benefits by changing the way the cost-of-living is calculated.
This plan, the so called "chained CPI," is often portrayed as just a technical fix. In fact, it would cut our hard-earned Social Security benefits substantially, leaving us seniors with less protection against increasingly expensive health care, prescription drugs and utilities. The only thing that is "cheap" is the talk of all the politicians who promised they would not cut Social Security benefits for current recipients.
The chained CPI breaks that pledge, cutting benefits for current seniors, and does it in a way that the longer we live, the more we lose.
In Mississippi, almost 600,000 of us are Social Security recipients. Of these, 33.9% rely on Social Security for 90% or more of their income and 58.2% rely on Social Security for 50% or more of their income.
The CPI already fails to take into account that seniors spend more on health care, which is rising much faster than overall prices. And this proposal assumes, wrongly, that when prices go up, seniors can simply plug in a less expensive substitute. But seniors spend much of our money on basics such as drugs, utilities and health care, which don't have lower cost substitutes.
A chained CPI is out of touch with our daily lives. Let's keep it out of the law.
Bruce W. Brice, Sr.
AARP Mississippi State President
