Diaper Rashes...I need an answer:) !!
I can only use wash clothes (with water and or mild soap and water) to prevent diaper rash for my now one year old. 1.) Is there a certain ingredient in even sensitive baby wipes that is the main cause for iritaion? 2.) How come we can use mild soapy water with wash cloth but not a sensative wipe...? Do the wipe companies making sensitive wipes have it wrong? 3.) Is it maybe the chemicals to preserve the wipes???? 4.) Is it the texture of the wipes- which doesn't seem right since a washcloth seems so much more abbrasive than a smooth wipe? Any answers anyone can give could really help me out. Thank you.

the best thing to do for a diaper rash is to put your child in the bathtub(luke warm water) and a cup of cornstarch and let them soak in it for about 10 mins. then when you put on the diaper sprinkle some cornstarch on the babys skin and diaper and you we see a diffrence within that day. I am a mother of 3 and have used this method for many years it works!!!!posted 10/24/2007 by baby brehana
I don't use wipes when my baby has a rash, I keep a bottle of water and cotton balls and use that instead, works a lot better anyway, also never ever wipe always tap... and I use boudreaux's butt paste, is awesome. I buy it here; http://www.buttpaste.com/posted 10/18/2007 by limsahar
For me this is great! : Sterilize some water, add baking soda and disolve. When the water gets warm, wash the rash area with it and then pad dry. Powder with Mexana powder or cornstarch baby powder. Do this until the rash is gone. To prevent diaper rash, use lots of vaseline after each change, this is to isolate the skin from urine or poopoo. Vaseline, baking soda, zinc based ointments and cornstarsh are great for rashes. Wash your baby's laundry with Ivory or All for babies detergent and doble rinse their laundry. Good luck to all of you. Grandma Gloriaposted 01/01/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
Cornstarch is the way to go! I have a 5 month old and I fought a terrible diaper rash for almonst a month. I tried every kind of cream and they didn't work. My mother recommended pure cornstarch and my sons diaper rash was noticably better in one day.posted 01/03/2008 by Jeanoo
My 6 month old daughter had a diaper rash for over 3 months. I tried two pediatricians, three prescriptions and every over the counter cream. I changed her food, wipes, cream, diapers and nothing worked. I finally took her to a dermatologist who wrote a prescription and within a day it started to clear up. After 3 months of trying every avenue I finally had something that worked! It is called alcometasone dipropionate ointment. So, for someone who had tried everything, and I mean everything, this worked. Also the dermatologist said soaking a baby's bottom in water can sometimes make the rash worse. Good luckposted 02/02/2008 by amybaby77
One word..BLOW DRYER!It seems you have the right start with mild soap and clear warm water, then use the blow dryer(of course on a low setting).This was wonderful advice that my pediatrician gave my mother for me when I was a baby and had chronic ear infections with antibiotic treatment then lots of diarrhea..this kept my bottom raw and rashy..so she started using the blow dryer on my ears following baths to prevent ear infections..then blow dryed my bottom..and it truly works. My baby girl is 6 mos old and hasn't had any ear infections or diaper rash..we use sensitive wipes with all diaper changes..we make sure she is dry and we only use A&D..we tried the ButtPaste and hated it...her bottom has stayed beautiful since she's been here..you don't have to blow every diaper change unless baby is rashy...when cleared, 3-4 times a day will keep them clear..also..if baby is taking juice, give him diluted cranberry juice in his bottle..this soothes and heals it!(Dilute 1/2 water/juice) Beccaposted 05/17/2008 by a BabyCenter Member
I have to rinse out the wipes with water when she has a rash and I use A & D ointment-works like a charmposted 09/26/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
The best thing I've found is putting your baby in an Aveeno Oatmeal bath, luke warm for about 10 minutes. It healed my daughter over night.posted 01/29/2008 by ally052706
It seems like my two year old had a rash from birth. First it was an allergy to a diaper brand. then we had stomach virus after stomach virus. DO NOT WIPE. Imagine wiping any rash...OW! We rinse in the sink or tub, no matter how gross that sounds. Then we apply corn startch or bordeaux's butt paste... MUCH BETTER! One of my older patient's remedies, old wives tales are not all crazy!posted 09/24/2010 by crewsa
we have not been able to use pampers sensitive wipes. after use, my son almost immediately gets a severe diaper rash -bleeds. we tried several creams and vaseline almost to no avail. we quit using the wipes and everything cleared up quickly. we are able to use huggies sensitive so far without a rash but our doctor has recommended only water and a wash cloth. our doctor didn't think it was so much the texture but the chemicals, such as alcohol. he recommended finding alcohol-free wipes for use when we are away from home.posted 04/17/2008 by JessiNBoys

Looking toward another divisional game on the road Sunday, New Orleans Saints Coach Sean Payton said Monday his team must seize its second comeback win of the 2011 season as a building block.
"I think you can take something from a win like yesterday," Payton said Monday after a morning-after tape review of New Orleans' 30-27 victory at Carolina. The Saints came from behind with a nearly seven-minute fourth-quarter drive to seize the lead with 50 seconds remaining.
"When we talked earlier, we talked about, 'Hey, what type of team do you have?'" Payton mused. "You know, you begin to develop a personality each year, and it's a little different from year to year. And a win like yesterday can do a lot, in that it was hard-fought, you had to come back. And you become somewhat resilient and you gain confidence from that. I think all those things are important."
The Saints now travel to Tampa Bay for the final installment of a three-game road swing ending with back-to-back divisional matchups. New Orleans is neither fretful nor surprised by that sort of schedule, Payton said, noting the Saints take pride in being solid performers on the road. The Saints will face a Buccaneers team that has crisscrossed the nation the past two weeks and is coming off a dispiriting 48-3 loss at San Francisco on Sunday.
New Orleans (4-1) holds a one-game lead in the NFC South over Tampa Bay (3-2). Carolina (1-4) is in the divisional cellar, and the team projected to be the Saints' key rival, Atlanta (2-3), lost to the visiting Green Bay Packers on Sunday night.
It's an unadulterated good thing when your team wins and every other team in your division loses, Payton acknowledged Monday while labeling anyone in the NFL who rebuts that common-sense opinion a liar. But the season is young, and Payton was quick to dismiss the notion that a win over the Buccaneers would put the Saints in a commanding position.
"No, I don't. I would disagree with that," he said. "I don't think there's anything commanding at week five of the regular season because you have 11 games left. But I think we certainly try to place a value and understand the importance of games in the NFC and more importantly games in your own division. There's still no light at the end of the tunnel, there really can't be. I think that begins to take shape at the latter part of the season for the whole league."
As if to reinforce his point, Payton said everything was not praiseworthy in the Saints' win at Carolina. Some things must be corrected, and basking in the glory of the team's second fourth-quarter comeback in the past three games would only "sugarcoat" issues he declined to specify.
"Just as important, though, is us being able to make sure we look and say, 'Hey, we were up 10 in this game. What kept us from separating at that point that it became a closer game?'"
Saints' players did revel in their record Monday while noting they expect a tough outing Sunday afternoon against a Tampa Bay team looking to avenge its recent drubbing.
"If they prepare well and we don't prepare well, they're going to beat us," cornerback Tracy Porter said flatly. "They're a talented team. Playing on the road, all the odds are against you. We look at it as adversity. We're pretty good at playing against adversity. And our fans travel good. That helps a lot."
In particular, Payton pointed to quarterback Josh Freeman, who has many of the same physical attributes -- size, speed and arm strength -- that make Panthers signal caller Cam Newton such a formidable force, while also having considerably more experience in the professional game. Consequently, at this point in their careers, Freeman is a more dangerous opponent, Payton said.
Still, for all the obligatory talk about moving on to the next game and understanding no win comes easily in the NFL, there was little question the Saints approach their Buccaneers preparation week with an infinitely better mental attitude giving their clutch comeback in Charlotte, N.C.
"You can't put too much pressure on yourself because it's a division game," offensive tackle Jermon Bushrod said. "(4-1) feels great. We'd love to be 5-0, but right now we'll take 4-1."
INJURY REPORT: Payton said the Saints came out of the Carolina game with largely a clean bill of health.
There were no serious injuries, he said, although the NFL doesn't require him to release a more detailed injury report until Wednesday. The team's focus now will be on getting a handful of previously nicked players healthy, he said.
The team has been short two starting offensive linemen in tackle Zach Strief and center Olin Kreutz, although center Brian de la Puente has proved a fine replacement in the middle of the line, and second-year tackle Charles Brown played virtually all of the Panthers game in anonymity, a sure sign an offensive lineman is doing something right.
Tight end David Thomas also has missed two games with a concussion suffered in week three against the Houston Texans. The emergence of tight end Jimmy Graham as one of the most explosive tight ends in the league has overshadowed Thomas' absence, but the team needs a reliable backup there to spell Graham.
SHOCKEY APOLOGIZES: Panthers tight end Jeremy Shockey, who played for the Saints for three seasons before getting cut after the 2010 season, took to his Twitter account Monday morning to apologize for running off the field Sunday afternoon without shaking the hands of his former teammates.
"I hold myself accountable. It was a classless move by me. No one takes losses worse than me," Shockey wrote on his Twitter account.
In another entry he wrote: "All the rings I won from high school, college, and in the pro level really means nothing. Competing means everything!!"
Shockey had three catches for 21 yards against the Saints but was animated throughout.
He also posted this Monday morning: "I have offended God and mankind because my work did not reach the quality it should have. Need to get more chances to help my team win."
Graham, Shockey's replacement, had eight catches for 129 yards. He has had three consecutive games with 100-plus yards receiving, the first time that has happened since 2000, when Tony Gonzalez had four consecutive games when he was with the Kansas City Chiefs.
BY THE NUMBERS: Through five games (not counting Monday night's game between the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears), here is where the Saints rank in some key NFL categories:
Total offense: second.
Rushing offense: 14th.
Passing offense: second.
Total defense: 16th.
Rushing defense: 15th.
Passing defense: 16th.
Third-down efficiency: first (44 of 75 for 58.7 percent).
The Saints also rank first in opponent's punt return average and third in net yards differential: Saints have 2,260 yards of offense while their defense has given up 1,773 yards.
The one category in which the Saints are lagging is in turnover differential. New Orleans is ranked 23rd at minus-3.

Jessie J is an accomplished songwriter, having penned tracks for Miley Cyrus (the mega-hit "Party in the U.S.A.") and Britney Spears (the never-recorded "Being Britney" ). Now the sassy British songstress is showing off her own pipes on Who You Are, her just-dropped debut album.
She worked with a number of A-list talent for the project, including B.o.B on "Price Tag" and producers and songwriters like Dr. Luke, Toby Gad and Claude Kelly to compile a raucous, empowering set of tunes that are loud and proud.
"It's been an incredible few months. It feels like I've had 10 years [of a] career in one week," she told MTV News. "To be accepted and also understood as well, I think people are really getting my music and getting me. It's the best feeling ever."
One of the feelings she's aiming to convey on the record is a feel-good one. The big message on Who You Are is to love — you guessed it — who you are.
"For me, I love being an influential role model, especially with young people who feel like they don't know who they are and aren't comfortable in their own skin," she explained. "I've kind of had to fast-forward and go, 'I don't care if I look stupid.' You have to believe in yourself before anyone else can believe in you.
"I had to struggle as everybody does," she continued. "Everyone has their own struggle. The last six years haven't been easy [as I was trying to put this album out]. You have to find opportunity. I think, for me, empowering songs stand the test of time. They never get old. It's something you always need. Everyone needs a lift. I just hope that I can bring a little light to the world."
Her sassy first single, "Do It Like a Dude," is a bold way to greet the pop masses, but it certainly gets the point across.
"At the end of the day, it's a business, and you have to create controversy, and I knew it would get their attention," she said. "It's funny, 'cause the lyrical content is raunchy, but it's not sexist. It's controversial without being offensive. It's actually quite empowering. It's very, 'We're all equal.' It's very much my humor, and the reason I wanted to put it out first is because it doesn't give anything away."

Looking for something that can be quickly prepared and looks elegant at the same time? Mushroom Rolls are suitable as hors d'ouvres or for a quick (and nutritious) snack on the run.
Mushrooms contain many nutrients, including niacin, thiamin, riboflavin, folate, phosphorus, iron, panthothenic acid, zinc, more potassium than bananas, copper, magnesium, vitamin B6 and vitamin D. They contain more Selenium (important antioxidant) than any other produce. Mushrooms are high in protein and fiber, contain no cholesterol and are low in fat, calories and sodium. They boost the immune system, have anti-inflammatory properties, and cooking the mushrooms makes the nutrients that they contain more bio-available to you. What more could you possibly want?
The Spice Rack at 2nd Street Market has great local butter and dried tarragon, Mr. Garber has green onions and you can check with Hydrogrowers to see if they have mushrooms currently.
These Mushroom Rolls are quickly and easily made with just a few ingredients, and are tasty hot or cold -
Mushroom Rolls
- 1# minced mushrooms
- 2 Tablespoon butter
- 2 chopped green onions
- 2 T flour
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
- 2 packages crescent rolls
Melt the butter in a skillet and add mushrooms, onion and seasonings. Cook until the liquid is absorbed, then stir in the flour and blend. Stir in the milk a little at a time and stir until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. When cooled, spread on the unrolled crescent rolls, and roll up. Place on greased cookie sheets and bake at 375 degrees for ten minutes or until the rolls have browned.

What's Your Price?
Except for those times when clients either dictate your rates (which means you walk away) or have set rates (magazines), you're going to be asked what your fee is. Show of hands - how many choke and don't know exactly what to say? How many balk because if you're too high, the client may disappear? I used to be like that, too. Then I learned that the clients who don't pay what I'm worth aren't my clients.
So, how do you answer that question? It isn't always easy to know what a project will cost. So here are some suggestions on what to say:
I charge $XXX an hour. Just say it. Own it, too. Don't say it as though you're expecting that nun with the ruler to slam down across your knuckles. Say it as though you're already earning it and have no troubles continuing to do so. If you've done your homework, you've determined what hourly rate will cover your bills and give you the profit you're aiming for.
May I ask what your budget is? It's as fair a question as what your rates are, yet how many of us shrink away from it? Don't. If you're to build a partnership with this client, you both have to be upfront about what you can and cannot accept in terms of cost and fees. Neither of you are buying a used car - no need to be dodgy or vague.
Can you send me more project information? Suppose the client says she wants a "smallish" e-book edited. You have it in your head it's no more than 50-80 small pages. However, once the contract is signed you realize she's talking about a 400-page, single-spaced tome with 8-point font. And she expects you to double check every quote and fact, of which there are hundreds. Get as much information on the project as you can before quoting the price.
Here's my price based on XX number of hours. It's okay to give an estimate that may not be an exact representation of the final cost. That's why it's called an estimate. If you think it will take 25 hours to complete, but you're not sure, say so. Mention your flat fee at that point along with your hourly rate for any work over that estimate.
How do you answer the "What's your price?" question?
7 comments:
- Wade Finnegan said...
I like doing it the estimate way. I pencil out how long I believe it will take me and then quote a price. I also learned to "pad" the time a little, because most of the time clients will add to the workload not lessen. If I over estimate then I could offer more service or maybe an incentive for further work. I have written a couple articles that paid per word, but they were on the low end.
Another writer friend of mine just told me a former editor asked if she could write a lengthy article due in about a month. She did the math, and they were offering roughly 17-18¢ per word. Probably less than they paid her 10 years ago.
She asked me if I thought she'd done the right thing by saying she'd need more. Of course I said she did the right thing. Now she's waiting to hear if they can find it in their budget to come closer to her rock-bottom prices.
To me it boils down to: They approached her. They know she's good. They must remember what they paid her for previous articles. So why offer a lower rate than they know she deserves?
BTW - I also sent her a link to Lori's blog, noting this post in particular.
- Wade Finnegan said...
That is borderline insulting. I understand the economy is bad, but undervaluing an individual's worth taints the relationship. I'm not starving, so I could turn that down, but it might be difficult if you need to put food on the table.
- allena said...
I learned to pad my estimate in the first year of freelancing. Back then it was needed because I grossly underestimated. But now I just do it to shake the tree a bit.
I go straight to my hourly because I think it's most helpful for people to position me on the grand scheme of things.
- Victoria @ My Daily Cuppa said...
I recieved an email from someone looking for an article writer. They were referred by a previous client, which made me feel great. However I had worked for him using an introductory price. I actually felt bad writing what price I normally charge because I was worried about losing the gig. But just like you said, if a person doesn't want to pay the price, then they were never going to be your client anyway.
I didn't get the gig but I am glad that I didn't feel pressurised to work for less that I am worth. I have to keep reminding myself of this point.
- Lori said...
Good idea on padding it a bit, Wade. I've found my estimates aren't always right on, either. About 20 percent more for a new client is usually closer to the reality.
Paula, she did the right thing from this chair, too.
Wade, I agree. It's insulting to offer substantially lower without explanation or even an apology. I did have an editor come to me with a lower rate and explain why, as well as apologize for it. I accepted because it wasn't all that much lower and it still made financial sense to me. But significantly lower? And they came to her? They need to revisit their practices.
Good practice, Allena. Your hourly is a great foundation to use since you've clearly done your homework on the price you need.
Victoria, that gig wasn't for you. It was for someone who didn't mind compromising too much for too little in return. Good for you for passing on it. I had a similar experience, and it taught me to price at or close to my usual rate every time.

The company's handling of the incident will be in the
spotlight at a crisis and reputation management seminar at
Massey University in Wellington next week.
School of Communication, Journalism and Marketing senior
lecturer Dr Chris Galloway will be at the course to speak
about reputational damage and how to handle crises in the
wake of MH370 and the Fonterra botulism scandal.
Dr Galloway said today he was "empathetic" to the airline,
whose biggest mistake was choosing to focus on what it
"didn't know".
"Had I been advising them I would have suggested that the
focus should have been on what efforts were going on to
locate the plane ... rather than stressing all the unknowns
which has helped to create confusion and doubt in people's
minds, and has lead to media indulging in what has been ...
at times harmful speculation."
Authorities had felt under pressure to "feed the beast" and
produce information, he said.
"There's a temptation to try to say something even when there
is not much to say."
Dr Galloway defended the carrier's decision to inform
families their loved ones hadn't survived in a text message.
"[Malaysia Airlines] no doubt made the calculation that the
one and only means available to them for reaching everybody
... quickly was to send a text. So even though that might
have seemed insensitive, how else could they have done it?"
Time restrictions would have prevented contacting more than
the 1000 relatives by phone before speculation mounted, he
Crises as unprecedented as a vanishing jet couldn't be
planned for in entirety, but there were things that could be
done to ease the situation.
One of these was preparing an offline information "dark site"
that could be made live as soon as a crisis broke - something
Malaysia Airlines did right.
"Part of the URL for [Malaysia Airlines'] information website
had the words 'dark site' in it."
Australian research showed a quarter of all organisations
that failed to manage a crisis successfully "disappeared"
within 12 months, Dr Galloway said.
The The Massey University Professional Development Course,
Reputation Management and Crisis will be held at Massey
University's Wellington campus next Friday, April 11.

How can you set rate limit access to API using Iptables. Tried to set limit using port 80, but I don't want to set limit to the web access entirely. Is there a way to specified a subdomain rather than port. Example: set rate limit to api.example.com not example.com?
If there is no way to set rate limit by subdomain, what is the suggested rate limit access to port 80 without risking blocking a legitimate web user? One connection per second would be enough?

If you're using a 2.5 gallon per minute showerhead, which is what most people are using, water savings is about 40 percent after replacing that 2.5 gallon a minute with the High Sierra 1.5 gallon a minute showerhead. And you're also saving about that much in the energy to heat the water.
According to David Malcolm of High Sierra Showerheads®, "fresh water in even in good years in California is scarce". Malcolm said, "We never have more than we need". With California facing another drought year, and currently feeling the pinch with only five percent of California's annual rainfall, water usage has made its way to the top of the news.
California's government officials have begun to ask water users to conserve their water by up to 40% in the Central Valley, with neighboring areas expected to follow. Malcolm said, "My recommendation to everybody is upgrade their irrigation systems to use more water efficient type sprinklers, and in the case of showers retrofitting with High Sierra Showerheads®".
Malcolm said. High Sierra Showerheads® are made to fit existing hoses and shower head assemblies. "Right now we are just making showerheads, but down the road, I think it would be really neat if we were able to offer an entire package to people," Malcolm said. "We can offer the State of California hundreds of thousands of gallons in water savings". After irrigation, water used in the home is with the showerheads.
The showerheads cost from thirty to seventy dollars depending on the type of showerhead and the accessories that come along with them. Malcolm explains, "I have been in the irrigation business since the 1980's, as I followed my dad into the business".
Malcolm's father was a product designer for major sprinkler manufacture who later started his own business making sprinkler heads for irrigation. Malcolm said, "He always used new ways to help conserve energy and water". Malcolm inherited his business sense from his father and began to focus on ways of conserving water through new designs and technology redesigning showerheads.
"Back a few years ago I came up with a unique nozzle that creates a spray at a very low pressure stream of water," Malcolm said. The pressure behind the showerhead is its technological design that focuses a small stream of water into a nozzle and then creates a spray. Malcolm said, "It's important when you are creating a spray for a showerhead that those droplets be large".
The spray then goes through the nozzle at a very low pressure, in turn which creates a spray from only a gallon and half a minute and breaks that stream into large droplets. Those large droplets are what make it feel like more water than what it really is. Malcolm said, "It's very, very low pressure. But it feels like high pressure because of the large droplet size".
Several designs have been introduced since his inception and design of the 15 psi nozzle High Sierra Showerheads®. The handheld is simply a High Sierra Showerhead® mounted onto a wand.
"What I noticed when I first introduced the handheld when I installed it I noticed that it didn't spray at an angle that would allow you to take a shower in its holder standing there beneath the showerhead. I thought that would be really cool if you could hang it up in the holder and use it as a regular showerhead or take it down and use it as a handheld. So, this new one that I just introduced this month does exactly that. It points almost straight down when it's in the holder. It serves two purposes. It's a dual purpose showerhead. It's handheld. And it also works like a fixed showerhead."
If the drought continues much longer, there is not going to be enough water for everyone. It takes years to construct a new dam or an aqueduct to move water here to there. We really only have one option, and that's to conserve. I offer and manufacture water saving showerheads, so that's my recommendation is the first thing you do, and really it's the easiest thing out of everything you can do replacing your sprinklers is a lot of work. "Replacing a toilet is very expensive. Replacing a showerhead has so much more bang for its buck," Malcolm said. "It doesn't cost too much money, and the return on the investment is very fast".
The average time a person is in the shower in this country is 5-10 minutes. With a High Sierra Showerhead you're not going to have to increase that amount of time, you're not going to have to decrease that amount of time you're in the shower to save water. There is pressure on everyone in the State of California to save water.
"Everybody is going to be different, and that's why I got three basic models, the basic we call it the classic model which is one that we originally introduced a few years ago," Malcolm said. "We have come out with a new model Tenaya that's five inches in diameter". The showerhead is translucent so users can match different colors to the interior of their bathroom.
"For those people who prefer a handheld because it works so well if you just set it in the holder and stand under it or use it in your hand or move it around up and down your body," Malcolm said.
The heavier weight of the showerheads is because they made of metal. Most hand held's used today are made of plastic. If you drop them once, they can break. The handheld High Sierra Showerheads® is mostly made of metal with a porcelain grip. "It's not going to break," Malcolm said. So it's going to last a long time.
High Sierra Showerheads® offers a thirty day satisfaction guarantee/warrantee for those who purchase their showerhead from their website. There is also a two year warranty for the showerhead. If for any reason you don't like it you can return it in thirty days. You can send it back to High Sierra Showerheads® and they will repair it at no cost to you. And if they can't repair it, they will then send you a new one.

Like Winter Break, Spring Break represents both an opportunity for downtime and an opportunity for exploration. While enjoying peace and quiet can be a valid and wise decision, it is likewise easily abused. Before you decide upon a vacation that solely features your couch and TV, consider the three options below. Each is fun, as well as liable to increase your academic capital.
1. Learn a new subject virtually
Developing faculty in a subject previously unfamiliar to you need not be dull or overly time-consuming. In the vast majority of cases, it need not even tether you to your hometown. If you intend to accompany family or friends on vacation, strongly consider this option to enhance your Spring Break. It is convenient and effective, and the possibilities are as limitless as you imagine them to be.
Simply do the following—open the Apple, Chrome, or Google Play store on your computer or mobile device. Browse! Often, such app databases list programs by subject. Navigate to the education section to locate apps that are specifically designed with self-instruction in mind. Certain apps are even available for free. Star Chart, for example, is a lovely (and local) introduction to astronomy, while BioDigital Human is an anatomy primer. It is even possible to learn foreign languages and music!
2. Participate in an extracurricular excursion
It is not necessary to abandon all notions of exploring new places—as certain students are lucky enough to do each year—in order to maximize the usefulness of your Spring Break. Instead, combine this desire with the creation of a unique extracurricular detail on your Common Application or a meaningful paragraph in your admissions essay. Colleges and universities value prospective students who are deeply engaged in personal interests.
Attend a regional debate conference. Lend a hand in a Habitat for Humanity construction project. Travel to a museum or a scientific installation with a mathematics or physics club. Select a field you are truly passionate about and then search for opportunities on the internet, or speak to your guidance counselor or extracurricular advisor. Excursions like those mentioned above take place in a wide variety of locations. It is very likely that one will be exciting and unfamiliar!
3. Visit prospective colleges and universities
Perhaps the best academically minded use of your time this Spring Break is to arrange a trip to personally evaluate those schools that interest you most. While this is of special importance to seniors, who must select a college or university by April or May, freshmen, sophomores, and juniors can likewise benefit from an admissions road trip. (It is also an excellent way to bond with parents, siblings, and those friends who are dearest to you.)
Determine the number of schools you will visit, with an eye toward practicality (i.e. twenty colleges in one week is not feasible). Then call ahead—arrange campus tours, schedule meetings with admissions representatives and students. Do not underestimate the importance of planning your trip, as many individuals visit schools at this time of year. Request to sit in on a class, if possible, and draft a list of questions. Just as with studying for the SAT, your preparation will pay off!

The iconic Tervis Tumbler is crossing into new territory with its partnership with the movie Draft Day. In many situations, movie characters grab a disposable bottle of water. In the new movie Draft Day, there is an underlying green message. Instead of consuming multiple bottle of water, the characters will be grabbing a Tervis Tumbler.
The new movie, Draft Day, stars Kevin Costner. He is the manager for the NFL's Cleveland Browns. The story focuses on the team's decision regarding the upcoming NFL Draft.
Tervis Tumblers is a perfect partner for a movie on the NFL. With licenses with 60 different sports teams and entertainment outlets, each fan can show his team pride. Customers can also customize their glasses with a variety of designs. Most importantly, these glasses can keep cold drinks cold, hot drinks hot, and have a lifetime guarantee.
The product placement in Draft Day is a new venture for Tervis. While the Tervis Tumblers enjoy a very loyal following, the big screen placements gives the brand a broader exposure.
To building on this new venture, Tervis is sponsoring a special giveaway at http://www.tervistoppick.com/. One winner will receive a trip to Day 2 of the NFL Draft. The giveaway includes tickets to the draft, airfare, hotel accommodations and $500. The contest ends on April 16, 2014. Please visit http://www.tervistoppick.com/ for complete contest rules and to enter.
Grab your favorite Tervis Tumbler and head to the theater to watch Draft Day with Kevin Cosner. How many Tervis styles will you spot?

This presentation shows how re-constructing individual stories from members of this community and building a digital archive/exhibition contributes to preserving Chene Street's heritage. During my internship at the Chene Street History Project, I focused on Chene Street's Polish and Jewish legacy. I developed content for an on-line presentation concerning life stories of two Polish and Polish-Jewish immigrants — Zofia Legowska and Jennie Levenson. I will show how the Archives provide not only insight into the community life and immigrant experiences on Chene Street, but also its role as a resource for researching World War II memories. .

I slipped - But I never lost my Spark
Wednesday, January 06, 2010
I'll try not to make this too long but I think its time to confess my sins!
I started slipping away at Halloween time. My school ended up getting very demanding and work even more demanding. The restaurant I work for - helped open - and have devoted my life to for an entire year is struggling to stay open. The stress of feeling like the success of the restaurant rests on my shoulders had me so stressed out. Everyday turned into me trying to think "what can we do better". These thoughts completely replaced my healthy habit thoughts. I was too exhausted after work and school to go work out, and I had spent all day cooking and it made me not want to cook at home.
Then the holidays hit. I lost my grandmother about 3 years ago. She is the reason im a chef today. She taught me how to cook and she inspired me to cook. After leaving her house after family events all that could be said was ''grandma is such an amazing cook''. Nobody had ever been highlighted as an ''amazing cook'' in my family aside from my grandmother - until me. Now IM the amazing cook. Since the holidays were the only times my grandma really cooked there are traditional recipes. Since my grandmother died - I felt obligated to not change the recipes. It would be a tease to say ''these are Minnies famous bacon buns..now with turkey bacon!" Now that im becoming a successful chef the pain of losing my grandma is becoming more real. I wanted my family to see me succeed but I always dreamed my grandma would be there when I opened my own restaurant. Now she wont be and these thoughts just were upsetting me more and more. Im proud to say I will be attempting to start my own catering business this year and I will most likely be calling it Minnie's after my grandmother. So hopefully getting over this obstacle and realizing why I was over-eating over the holidays will help me push forward. I want to start perfecting my recipes for my own business but im going to start getting myself healthy first. If I start working out and eating better then I wont be so compelled to try everything I make.
Im really going to need all my spark friends help to keep me on track. I gained about 6 lbs over the holidays which Im aware could be so much worse but it still upsets me alot. If anyones willing to be a texting buddy i definitely need someone to remind me all day to not give into picking at food and that once I get to my goal weight I will be a healthy chef..not the cliche fat chef.

Wow. I never knew this about your grandmother, I am so sorry. You are extremely strong to be able to admit all of this, and to face them. No matter how busy you are, you still want to think of yourself and take care of yourself. I will be more than happy to be your texting buddy :) . I did leave you a comment the other day asking if you had a personal email, that way we could become closer friends for this journey.

I can understand wanting to cook the traditional recipes, I think it is great that you are carrying on your Grandmother's traditions. Your family must be so thankful that you can continue with the family recipes. I find food and scent is such a memory inducer.. more than anything else.
You look great in your chef jacket. Don't worry too much about the 6 lbs - that can be undone just the way you did before. All I can suggest is continuing to make yourself active on Spark through blogging and the Spark Pages. Whenever I start to get off track I have to find time to put myself back in the Spark loop and then it gets addictive once again.

EUGENE – After completing the first leg of its nine-day six-match road swing in Arizona, the Oregon women's tennis team now heads to UNLV for a quick non-conference match at 10 a.m. (PT) on Wednesday, March 26. The Ducks then head to Los Angeles for a pair of matches against No. 12 USC on Friday, March 28 at 1:30 p.m. and will conclude their road trip with No. 2 UCLA on Saturday, March 29, at noon.
Saturday's match against the Bruins will also be televised via the Pac-12 Networks. To find what channel the Pac-12 Network is for your cable provider, click here.
Oregon opens the second leg of its nine-day six-match road trip with UNLV at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, March 26. The Ducks will face the Lady Rebels for the first time since head coach Paul Reber took over the program in 2006.
UNLV comes into the match 7-7 on the year and 1-0 in the Mountain West Conference. The Lady Rebels have enjoyed success when playing at home at the Fertitta Tennis Complex, posting a 7-3 mark at home.
Lucia Batta has been a rock for UNLV all season, posting a 21-7 singles record with a 10-4 mark in dual play at the No. 1 singles slot. Batta was recently named the MWC player of the week for the ninth time in her career, tying the school and conference record for most awards in a career. Batta, who is ranked 58th by the Intercollegiate Tennis Association, earned her ninth POW honor after going 7-1 last week in the top spot in both singles and doubles for UNLV.
Santa Shumilina is the only other player on the Lady Rebel roster with double-digit wins, 11-10. Shumilina has split her time in at different positions since the start of dual play.
UNLV has been most successful at doubles No. 1 thanks to the play of Batta/Shumilina who have gone 8-3 in dual play and 9-5 overall.
The Ducks will face some of the nation's best tennis players when they head to Southern California for a 1:30 p.m. contest on Friday, March 28. The 12th-ranked Women of Troy are 12-4 on the year and 3-0 in conference play while boasting a 5-2 mark at home. Its two losses at home have come at the hands of UCLA in a non-conference match up and Baylor, both of whom are currently ranked in the top-25 of the ITA rankings.
USC boasts four players ranked in singles action according to the ITA. Sabrina Santamaria is ranked 15th in the nation with a 10-6 singles record and 4-4 mark in dual play while Zoë Scandalis comes in at No. 26 on the ITA singles rankings with a 14-6 singles record. Giuliana Olmos, who is ranked 69th, is 13-8 on the year while Zoë Katz, who is ranked 90th, is 11-7 on the year to round out the last two players ranked in singles play for USC.
The Women of Troy also boasts three doubles teams that are ranked in the top-25 according to the ITA. Scandalis and Olmos is the highest ranked pair for USC, coming in at No. 7 with 22-7 doubles record. Brynn Boren and Katz come in at No. 12 in doubles play thanks to their 20-6 mark in doubles play and 8-2 record in dual play. Kaitlyn Christian and Santamaria – last year's NCAA and Pac-12 doubles champions – check in at No. 22 with an 11-3record.
The Pac-12 conference is filled with tough opponents up and down its list and UCLA is no different coming in at No. 2 on the ITA rankings. The Bruins are 15-1 on the year with a 3-0 record in Pac-12 play and posts an impressive 8-0 mark at home. UCLA has blanked its opponents in 10 of its 16 matches this year.
UCLA's Robin Anderson (No. 4), Chanelle Van Nguyen (No. 11) and Jennifer Brady (No. 16) are all ranked in the top-25 and have a combined singles record of 53-14. Six of the Bruins 10 players have double-digit wins in singles play while the team as a whole is 100-41 on the year.
The Bruins have the top-ranked doubles pair in the nation in Jennifer Brady and Robin Anderson, who are 17-1 on the year and 8-0 in dual play at No. 1 singles. The pair is also 10-0 when against nationally ranked players. UCLA's duo of Catherine Harrison and Kyle McPhillips is also ranked in the top-five, coming in at fifth in the nation with a 13-1 doubles mark. The two are 8-0 at doubles No. 2 and 3-0 when playing in the No. 1 slot.
For the first time since the 2010 season, Oregon will have five freshmen on the roster. Lina Åkesson, Allie Hueffner, Kadie Hueffner, Marlou Kluiving and Maja Salibasic look to compete with the six upperclassmen for one of the six spots in singles action.
Åkesson hails from Bunkeflostrand, Sweden, where she compiled a 23-19 mark in the ITF junior girl's circuit and reached as high as No. 562 in rankings. Allie and Kadie Hueffner come to Oregon having won back-to-back OSAA State Championships their junior and senior year in doubles play. Allie also compiled a 21-18 record in singles play competing in multiple United States Tennis Association matches while Kadie had a 23-15 mark.
Kluiving, a native of Eext, Netherlands, joins the Ducks with experience in the ITF circuit as well as experience with the Dutch National Team. She was ranked No. 46 in singles play and No. 40 for doubles in the Netherlands. Salibasic rounds out the group of freshmen for Oregon, hailing from Lukavac, Bosnia and Herzegovina. She was once the top-ranked junior player in Bosnia and Herzegovina in the 10, 12, 14 and 16 under categories in addition to her experience in ITF tournaments.
The Oregon women's tennis team will have a nice mix of upper classmen and underclassmen representation this year with a trio of seniors and juniors and five freshmen. Lana Buttner, Lana Buttner and Rabea Stueckemann represent the senior class while Sofia Hager, Nicole Long and Jasmine Minor.
Head coach Paul Reber announced the signing of five-star athlete Alyssa Tobita of Mililani High School. The Mililani, Hawaii, native is a three-time Hawaii High School Athletic Association champion. Tobita also led the Trojans to their sixth-straight Oahu Interscholastic Association title last spring, her third since attending Mililani. She enters the 2014 season, her senior campaign, seeking her fourth-straight singles title.
In front of a crowd of over 200 friends, family, teammates and members of the UO community, the Oregon men's tennis team hosted a court dedication ceremony in honor of Alex Rovello on Nov. 9, 2013, at the Student Tennis Center. The program officially named the center court on the north side of the facility the Alex Rovello Court, a fitting tribute to the remarkable career and life of Rovello, who passed away in a diving accident

The quip was fitting.
The Park City High School boys' golf team did it again Thursday afternoon, winning an unprecedented fifth-straight 3A state crown at the state championship tournament in Roosevelt.
Now, head coach George Murphy has a state title ring for his lonely thumb.
"I wouldn't say it's getting old, but it's a cool thing," he said. "I'm excited for these guys."
The Miners finished with a two-day combined team score of 603, shooting 303 in blustery conditions Wednesday and 300 on the final day of the tournament Thursday. They finished 12 strokes ahead of second-place host Union. Pine View High School finished third overall with a total of 647.
"It's sweet," said senior Jack Egan. "Hopefully they'll be able to continue the tradition. It's been an honor to be part of this team."
Fellow senior and defending 3A individual state champion Justin Shluker protected his crown, finishing with a two-day total of 146, shooting 73 each day in Roosevelt. Shluker, one of three seniors on this year's team (with Egan and Adam Eisenbarth), said leaving the program on a high note is something he'll never forget.
"It was a crazy couple days and we ended up on top. It's been crazy," he said. "I don't even know what to say. It's better the second time.
"That hasn't been done that many times in the state of Utah," Murphy said of Shluker's back-to-back achievement. "To be able to do that two years in a row, as a senior, it's a pretty nice thing."
Park City's domination this year on the links wasn't attributed to just one or two golfers and it showed throughout the season. Freshman Mitch Schow turned out to be the biggest surprise on the team, pushing defending champion Shluker for the overall Region 10 title. Transfer Jalen Roberts, a sophomore, proved to be a vital addition to the team and junior Harry Hanskat finished third in region this year. Hanskat will no doubt be considered a leader for the 2013 edition of the Miners.
Park City had the top three golfers in the most difficult region in 3A this year and had four in the top 10 at the 3A state tournament. Following behind the champion Shluker were Schow, who finished fifth in Roosevelt (150), Hanskat (152), who tied for sixth and Roberts (155), who came in eighth. Egan and Eisenbarth each cracked the top 20, finishing tied for 18th overall.
Murphy said when he looks back on this crew that delivered title No. 9 to Park City, he'll remember the sheer dominance the team had 1 through 12. This year's Miners set the all-time Region 10 record for scoring, Murphy added.
"We had so many solid region scores throughout the year and I think this was our most consistent year ever," he said. "I think that's one thing that maybe sets this team apart is we had different kids going low in different weeks."
Park City must now face the task of replacing its three seniors in Shluker, Egan and Eisenbarth.
"We're losing a huge part of a team with our three seniors who have played at state for us, and those are going to be big shoes to fill in our program," Murphy said. "We've got some youth and some kids who are excited and who want to do the same thing as these guys. That'll be our goal, to take state again and work as hard as we can and get these guys tournament ready. We'll come back and go for another one."
Shluker said he hopes his legacy with the program will be for those already on the team and those who aim to be, to see how his hard work paid off.
"I just hope the younger guys have somebody to look up to," he said. "I hope I'm the role model coming into the program for those guys and I hope they can say, 'I want to be like him when I'm done.'"
Eisenbarth said it's Murphy's tutelage and spirit that helped keep this team atop the 3A world and his ability to simplify arguably the most difficult sport was the difference.
"He's been great for all the players and especially me," he said. "He's just made it a joy. I don't know if I would have stuck with golf without him. It's crazy how he combines golf with life lessons."
Park City learned Thursday, once again, that it has the best 3A team in the state and the dynasty is alive and well.
"In the end, we can still look back and say we did ourselves proud," Shluker said.
Just as they've done now five years running.

Just before President Barack Obama delivered a speech on Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2014 urging Congress to extend unemployment benefits for long term jobless Americans, the Senate with the help of some Republicans passed the bill's first procedural vote 60 to 37. President Obama gave his speech in the White House's East Room, where he was joined by 18 Americans that have recently lost unemployment benefits, because the extension was not passed before its Dec. 28, 2013 expiration. Republicans failed to include an extension of the 2008 law in the bipartisan budget bill that passed both the House of Representatives and the Senate in December, which the President signed into law on Thursday, Dec. 26, 2013.
The Senate has a bipartisan plan which would extend unemployment benefits for another three months. Sens. Dean Heller, R-NV and Jack Reed, D-R.I. are the authors and sponsors of the extension plan; the Heller-Reed bill. The President approves of the short-term plan and would sign such a bill if it passes the House and Senate. On Monday, Jan. 6, Obama spent a part of his day phoning Republican Senators encouraging them to vote for the extension.
The Emergency Unemployment Compensation Extension Act will cost $6.5 billion, but Heller and Reed did not outline how the costly extension would be paid for, besides contributing further to the deficit. A majority of Republican oppose the major because of its price tag.
Six Senate Republicans voted with the 54 Senate Democrats on the cloture vote to end the filibuster stage and pass the bill's first major hurdle leading to the debate stage. The six senators that broke from party ranks were; Kelly Ayotte, N.H.; Dan Coats, IN; Susan Collins, ME; Dean Heller, NV; Lisa Murkowski, AK; and Rob Portman, OH. The Senate vote was originally scheduled for Monday, Jan. 6, but was delayed because of the cold and stormy weather plaguing the country.
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is also against the bill expressing on Tuesday; "There is no excuse to pass unemployment insurance legislation without also finding ways to create good, stable, high-paying jobs - and also trying to find the money to pay for it. So what I'm saying is, let's support meaningful job creation measures, and let's find a way to pay for these UI benefits so we're not adding to an already unsustainable debt."
President Obama delivered his speech at the White House primarily urging the Republican House of Representatives to extend the benefits minutes after the Senate's first vote. Obama praised the Senate's actions; "The good news is this morning the Senate took a very important step in that direction. We've got to get this across the finish line without obstruction or delay, and we need the House of Representatives to be able to vote for it as well. Voting for unemployment insurance helps people and creates jobs, and voting against it does not."
At the event part of a week-long push to get Congressional Republicans to pass the bill, Katherine Hackett, an unemployed mother of two sons in the military from Connecticut introduced the President. She lost her benefits in December and discussed the difficulties to survive without them including wearing a coat and barely heating her home and cutting down on food.
The President's speech primarily urged Congress to pass an unemployment extension, but also described the bill, its impact on affected Americans and the economy, mixing in anecdotes from those unemployed that were at the White House while he gave his speech, all the while wishing for a bipartisan convergence to pass the bill.
President Obama in his speech emphasized the impact of not extending the benefits describing; "If this doesn't get fixed, it will hurt about 14 million Americans over the course of this year. Congress should pass this bipartisan plan right away and I will sign it right away." On Dec. 28, 2013 1.3 million Americans lost access to benefits, and each week about 70,000 Americans will lose benefits. Obama continued; "We've got to get this across the finish line without obstruction or delay. And we need the House of Representatives to be able to vote for it as well."
Obama explained the ways the benefits helps Americans each day in their quest to find a job; "A lot of our friends, a lot of our neighbors have lost their jobs and they are working their tails off every single day trying to find a new job. As the job market keeps getting better, more and more of these folks will find work. But in the meantime the insurance keeps them from falling off a cliff. It makes sure they can pay that car note, so they could go to that interview. It makes sure they can pay that cell phone bill, so that if someone calls back for an interview they can answer."
President Obama responded to Sen. Rand Paul, R-KY, who has spoken out against extending the benefits because it does not motivate the unemployed to find a job as long as they have access to benefits. Paul again stated his position on Sunday morning, Jan. 5 on ABC's "This Week" explaining; "I think it's wrong to borrow money from China or simply to print up money for it. But I'm not against having unemployment insurance. I do think, though, that the longer you have it, that it provides some disincentive to work, and that there are many studies that indicate this."
The President in his response slammed Paul saying that Americans prefer working; "I really want to go at this for a second. That really sells the American people short. I meet a lot of people as president of the United States and as a candidate for president of the United States. … I meet a lot of people. And I can't, I can't name a time where I met an American who would rather have an unemployment check than the pride of having a job."
Speaker of the House John Boehner, R-OH would push for the bill if there was a source to pay for the extension. House Republicans believe spending cuts should offset $26 billion cost for the extension this upcoming year. Boehner reiterated on Tuesday his position again about the bill; "One month ago I personally told the White House that another extension of temporary emergency unemployment benefits should not only be paid for but include something to help put people back to work," Boehner said in a statement released by his office. "To date, the president has offered no such plan. If he does, I'll be happy to discuss it, but right now the House is going to remain focused on growing the economy and giving America's unemployed the independence that only comes from finding a good job."
During the 2008 recession when Republican George W. Bush was President the government enlarged the Federal Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) program to extend unemployment benefits beyond the 26 weeks that the states give. During the recession the "combined" state and federal benefits gave unemployed Americans 99 weeks of relief. The federal government provides "47 weeks" of extended benefits averaging "$300 a week."
President Obama concluded his remarks, wishing for a bipartisan effort to pass the bill that it might lead to further bipartisanship in Congress; "Hope is contagious. When Congress passes a bipartisan effort starting here, right at the beginning of the new year, who knows, we might actually get some things done this year."
Although the Heller-Reed bill passed its first step, the Senate still has to pass the bill as well as the Republican House, who still lean against the bill and its costs. The President will have his work cut out for him to get this bill passed, if he does maybe he will get his wish of a more bipartisan and productive Congress to work this midterm election year.

Hi ladies. Found out at today's 32 week ultrasound that I will be having a c-section (unless something drastic changes) due to baby B being completely breech & also heavier than baby A. It will be my first c-section as DD was vaginal. I'm reading stories that say an emergency c-section is way harder of a recovery than a planned one. Why would that be? As my options are now a) go into labor on my own and need an emergency c-section or b) make it to a scheduled date & have one, I'm just trying to know what to expect.
I'm at 1cm dilated & cervix is shortening. OB said they typically don't schedule c-sections until 37 weeks and he was pretty sure I wouldn't make it that far. So I'm really trying to understand what could cause a hard recovery with an emergency c-section. Any stories, advice, ladies who've had one of each?

Date: January 22 2013
Germany's centre-left opposition has beaten Chancellor Angela Merkel's ruling alliance in a cliffhanger state poll eight months before a national vote.
The Social Democrats and the Greens eked out a one-seat lead in Lower Saxony, beating the incumbent coalition of Dr Merkel's Christian Democrats and the Free Democrats.
After a suspense-packed night with broad implications for the September general election and Dr Merkel's bid for a third four-year term, the centre-left camp said it aimed to use its victory to create fresh momentum.
''It shows the race until September is far from over,'' said Peer Steinbrueck, the Social Democrats' embattled leader. Dr Merkel has a strong lead in national polls.
