A lot of improvements! There are a few areas where changes are needed:
1. There is no longer a means of making discrete changes to a element in a layer, such as changing a specific line colour or style. Useful when a layer needs a hidden line or centre line.
2. Blocks generated in one layer do not seem to be embedded in a new layer when inserted. Turning off the originating layer causes the block to disappear from the current layer.
3. When moving to a new command, the previous command is maintained active. which is useful sometimes. Would prefer to see the feature selected in a set-up menu.

'Black Mamba' leads Derby over Seymour
SEYMOUR — Derby senior running back Tyrae Small calls himself the Black Mamba, taking after University of Oregon speedster De'Anthony Thomas.
Monday night in Seymour, Small took on characteristics of both his favorite player and their namesake lethal snake.
Small helped Derby dig out of a two-score hole in the third quarter and rushed for a career-high 279 yards with four touchdowns as the Red Raiders knocked off the Wildcats, 49-28.
Of Small's four scores, three of them came in an 11-minute span in the second half to help the Derby (5-3) comeback. He emerged after the break to run for 200 of his yards, seemingly lying in the weeds before slithering through any hole he could find.
"He lives up to (his nickname)," Derby quarterback Mike Kreiger said. "He had a phenomenal game tonight. He's finally decided to pound it rather than be a scat back and use all 190 (pounds) of him to roll over guys. He did a great job tonight."
Facing a 21-12 deficit after Seymour's (5-3) Joey Salemme caught a 60-yard touchdown pass from Mike Conlan 76 seconds into the third quarter, Small took over the Red Raiders' offense.
His 53-yard run on a third-and-2 from the Derby 44 gave the Raiders a first-and-goal. On the next play, he punched it in from 3 yards out to make it a 21-20 game.
John Piazza recovered a Seymour fumble on the next drive. Small busted a 44-yard touchdown run on the following play to give Derby a 28-21 lead, one it held for the rest of the night.
"We really showed our immaturity and youth there," Seymour coach Tom Lennon said. "We went up nine and looked great but we gave up the big run when we lost our discipline. Then we turned it over right away and the wheels started to come off."
Meanwhile, the Red Raiders' wheels kept on turning. After another defensive stop, Kreiger tossed a 32-yard touchdown pass to Dillon McMahon on a fourth-and-11 play with 47 seconds left in the third quarter.
A Duane Jones sack on the next drive set up another Seymour three-and-out, after which Small added his last touchdown run, a 4-yarder early in the fourth quarter to make it a 42-21 game. Small also had a 9-yard touchdown in the first half.
"We showed that it's not just a two-man team," said Small, referring to Kreiger and McMahon usually being the focal points of Derby's offense. "When we play as a whole we can win every game."
Small, who doubled his season touchdown total with his four touchdowns, became the go-to player in the second half and showed his career-long progress to Derby coach George French.
"He's just learning. He's only played football since his freshman year so he's gotten a lot better," French said. "He made some really nice cutbacks off of reads. He's come a long way and tonight he just felt it. He was in a groove so we just wanted to keep feeding him."
The senior back mixed up his runs between pounders up the middle and burners around the edge.
"I feel like I use my power in short situations and when we need a long run I can use my speed," Small said. "We just tried to push the ball down the field and make some open holes."
Derby's defense also came through after giving up three touchdowns in the first 25 minutes of the game. Seymour held a 14-12 lead at the break on two short touchdown runs by Conlan but French said the Raiders' defensive adjustments made the difference.
"We wanted to get some more guys into the box and pressure them to throw the football," he said. "We wanted to shut down the run and make them uncomfortable. And we gang tackled. We drove them back instead of them driving us forward."
Derby is a victory away from securing its first winning season since 1996. The Raiders host Crosby on Saturday night.
"We want it pretty badly," Kreiger said. "We're going to go out in our last two games and work hard. Hopefully we end up with two more wins."
French, a Red Raider through and through, wouldn't allow himself to speak to the importance of the team's potential achievement. But the pressure is on.
"The Derby guys have been waiting for it for a while," French said. "With the proper prep, we'll be ready to go."

I'm drove!
And I suspect I'm not alone.
While September had its fair share of sunny days and mild temperatures, I feel like I've been living in a 30-day long tornado. And there is no low pressure system in sight.
Since the school year began, we've been in a constant spin of registration fees and scheduled activities. The magnetic calendar on the side of my fridge is more complicated than the project plan for the construction of the Long Harbour Processing Plant…seriously.
My husband and I have become nothing more than a parenting tag team:
"I'll do pick up if you can get home ahead of me and start supper."
"We have to get all homework done tonight because the next three nights are booked solid."
"We need to miss 1 out of 2 tae kwon do classes to fit in 2 out of 3 soccer practices."
"I'll trade you a cadet night for a music lesson and raise you a dance class."
I wish I were exaggerating.
The sad part is, no one is to blame for this madness but ourselves. Somewhere in our quest to raise well rounded, active, healthy children, we've completely lost our minds.
When you and the other well intentioned parents spend half of your kids' soccer practice complaining about how much of a toll (both financially and otherwise), their activities are taking, it is clearly time to press "pause." So we did. We made the conscious decision NOT to let our kids try out for the all-star soccer team this fall. (Was that a collective "gasp" I just heard?)
In our family, we believe everyone has their "thing." That special talent or gift that they possess. Some people are lucky and figure it out early in life. Some spend their whole lives searching for it. If I felt soccer was their "thing", I would have gladly made the commitment. Likewise, if either of my children were passionate about the sport – even if I was not convinced - we still would have been all in. But neither of these things were true. So we decided to pass.
Initially, when our children started getting involved in structured activities, we would decide on a budget for the season, pick an activity (or two) for each of them, and carry on. Life was relatively simple. As they've gotten older, the number of activities has grown to at least three each and the budget has grown right along with it. It's so easy – as one of my clients so eloquently put it – "to just keep on keeping on." But if we are truly being honest with ourselves, at some point we have to admit that, "We've tried that. Doesn't seem to be your thing. Let's move on." Or, "OK. You can swim/skate/whatever now. That's good enough for us." Or, "We have allocated this much money for activities and we've hit our max. We're done."
When I was growing up (and I'm not that old…really), only the well-off kids took private piano lessons. You learned how to play most sports by actually playing. I'm worried that we are not only raising a stressed out, over scheduled generation, but that we are willing to bankrupt ourselves to give our children some type of fictitious "edge."
A parent commented to me recently, "I'm lucky. We can afford it."
Here's another thought: "Just because we can, doesn't mean we should." I get that we are invested in our kids, in ensuring that they have every opportunity available to them. But sometimes I think we need to pause, assess and give ourselves permission to say, "Enough already!"

There are others, but the point of this is to tell you one thing: MIND YOUR BUSINESS! Why do we judge EVERYONE for their choices with their children? Seriously. I mean, it's one thing to show your opinions or give facts, but sometimes, ladies, we can be straight up rude.
Let's remember something. We all survived much worse than whatever we're "supposed" to be doing for our babies. So let's try to be civil to each other and stop being big b words. I mean, pregnancy hormones can only be blamed so many times...
There's only one wrong way to be a parent: to do nothing at all. If someone posts something, it's not to be completely bashed, but to seek honest, thoughtful opinions of us. So just play nice. Let it be.
And I <3 you all, even though you can be beeches sometimes. :)
(This is not directed at any particular anything. I just thought of it after a few posts I read and comments made.)
Feel free to add your own things to my list. I try not to judge. To each her own, no?

Advocacy Teaching: A Cautionary Note
70.Though I have spent the previous pages talking about the "lessons" to be learned from the Holocaust, I must admit to significant discomfort. As should be clear, I have no doubt that there are significant lessons to be gleaned from these events. Yet, as an historian and a university professor, I believe it is inappropriate to impose these lessons upon my students. To do so would be to cross over from teacher to preacher, from pedagogue to ideologue. I am wary of advocacy teaching, irrespective of the cause one is advocating. My responsibility in teaching about the Holocaust is to educate my students about this event not to determine the conclusions they should draw from it. Some may draw conclusions which are different than mine for there are many areas of the Holocaust which are open to debate (see below), e.g. some may conclude that the Allies could have bombed Auschwitz while other may conclude that it would have been a tactical impossibility and a strategic mistake.
71.Moreover, as someone who has been teaching for close to thirty years, I have learned that when students are allowed to make their own connections rather than have the lessons drawn for them, the impact is far greater than when one "tells" them what lessons they should grasp. Consequently, I studiously avoid telling my students, either in the classroom or outside of it, why I think teaching the Holocaust is important.

Gypsum's expansion of LEDE Reservoir is going to cost about half a million more than budgeted.
The good news is that construction work was suspended over the summer due to the drought, so there is unspent money and the town has time to budget for the extra cost next year.
The permitting process with four agencies is the biggest contributor toward the extra expense. Finding agreement with the U.S. Forest Service and the Army Corps of Engineers seems to be the crux.
"The Forest Service has been great to work with but they're slow," said Gypsum Engineer Jim Hancock at Tuesday's town council meeting. "It's been tough to get the Army Corps of Engineers on the same page, though."
LEDE has a current capacity of 473 acre feet of water. The latest plans are to expand it to 947 acre feet. The expansion will submerge some small wetland areas that are around the reservoir at its present size and the town has plans to compensate for that loss by replacing the wetland areas with new ones. Those plans are mainly what need approval from the Corps of Engineers and it's unclear if that will happen.
"We might want to get some other plans in the works if it looks like they're going to fight us on these," said water attorney Ramsey Kropf. "Then again, they might fight us on anything we propose."
Costs were also bumped up in 2010 when the latest plans for the expansion were approved by Gypsum Town Council. Council members opted to expand the reservoir to 947 acre feet instead of 680 acre feet as originally planned. That budget presented the town with a $680,000 funding shortfall. However, the larger option was a much better value per acre foot.
At that point, the project was estimated to cost about $4.5 million. Now that number is just over $5 million, leaving a difference of $536,000 to scratch up.
There is $3.7 million left in the 2012 project budget, so that helps.
"We held off on construction this year because we would have had to drain the reservoir to work on it," Hancock said. "By holding off, we were able to save water for the drought, which was a good thing because we ended up getting calls for it from ranchers. That illustrates the need for a bigger reservoir right there."
LEDE is slated to be ready in 2013. That is also when the town will have to start payments on a $3 million, 30-year-loan from the Colorado Water Conservation Board. The loan carries an interest rate of more than 4 percent. Hancock said they'll look into renegotiating that rate.
Council member Tom Edwards suggested using the extra sales tax revenues from Costco next year, when the town's revenue sharing agreement with Eagle expires.
"That's an extra $400,000 right there," he said.
The problem with that idea, attorneys told him, is that money goes into the general fund and would have to somehow be transferred into the town's water enterprise fund, which is dedicated for projects like LEDE.
Another option might be to sell shares of the water rights but council members said that was the last solution they wanted to pursue.
There have been some financial partners so far, such as Eagle County, but no water rights have been sold. Eagle County paid Gypsum for advance water tap fees.
"The town prefers to keep as much of the water right as possible," council member Tim McMichael echoed. "Water is the new gold."
With that in mind, the town of Gypsum will be looking under sofa cushions to come up with the extra half million and hoping for permit approvals as 2013 approaches.

Despite turning the ball over a record nine times, Campbellsville University rallied in the final four minutes of the game to pull within a touchdown of the University of Pikeville in a 37-30 upset at Finley Stadium's HIG Field Saturday.
"It's hard to beat anyone with nine turnovers, but I thought defensively, we played a pretty good game," CU head coach Perry Thomas said.

After Sandy, Celebrating Any Way They Can
By Josh Dawsey, Jackie Bischof, Jennifer Maloney and Lisa Fleisher
For almost five decades, Lorna Spiro has cooked a traditional Thanksgiving meal for her family at her home in Long Beach, N.Y.
But her house near the beach on Long Island was so ravaged by superstorm Sandy that her family won't be able to return for months. So this year, instead of having a loud, baby-filled celebration there, Thanksgiving dinner will be at Mitchell's Diner in Oceanside, where they made reservations to be sure to get a seat.
"It's the first time in a very long time it won't be in my house," said Ms. Spiro, 67 years old. "And it makes me feel very sad. But otherwise I'm thrilled everyone is healthy, and we'll be together, meeting at the diner."
Across the region, the annual celebration of gratitude and abundance will be a significantly altered holiday for the families upended by Sandy. Some are making do with what little food they have on hand, while others are joining forces with neighbors for communal dinners or turning to charities for help.
The bottom floors of the Gravesend Houses in Brooklyn's Coney Island neighborhood were inundated with floodwaters. The kitchen walls had to be cleaned of mud and mold, and many pots and pans were ruined.
But preparations are under way this week for a makeshift Thanksgiving dinner. Deborah Carter, president of the city-owned public-housing complex, said volunteers from the buildings are planning to crowd into a ground-floor kitchen and prepare a meal for at least 350 residents.
Ms. Carter, 57, is hoping to pull together a spread of turkey, stuffing, potato salad and other favorites. "I make the best homemade pineapple coconut cake," she said. "I'm trying to find the Presto self-rising flour to make it for everyone."
As they do every holiday season, food pantries, soup kitchens and charities are stepping in to help those in need — but three weeks after a disaster that left thousands homeless, the need is even greater. The American Red Cross, in just one massive example, is planning to serve 35,000 hot meals to New Jersey and New York residents affected by the storm. And Lowe's stores will distribute more than 22,000 Boston Market meals to families in hard-hit areas Wednesday.
Smaller organizations are mobilizing as well. Some 1,300 parishioners from Liquid Church in Morristown, N.J., will descend on Staten Island's hard-hit neighborhoods to serve holiday dinners. On Long Island, meanwhile, Oceanside Community Service has moved its annual dinner to the town's high school in anticipation of a large turnout.

Even some nonprofit groups devoted to providing Thanksgiving aid found themselves slammed by the aftermath of Sandy.
City Harvest, a food-distribution charity, had to implement a last-minute turkey rescue after the post-storm havoc threatened to ruin their holiday provisions. A Long Island City facility holding 10,000 frozen birds lost power in the flooding, leaving the organization five days to find working freezers before the turkeys defrosted.
Volunteers are also coming up with unexpected ways to make the holiday special for survivors. After her daughter's home in Brick, N.J., was damaged, Jennifer Kaufman, 47, of Washington Township, set up A Place at the Table, an online resource where those holding Thanksgiving meals can sign up to host a displaced family or out-of-state utility worker for the holiday.
So far, about 400 families around the tri-state area have signed to host someone for the holiday. Ms. Kaufman has promoted the effort on Facebook and is relying a free Google tool to connect people . "Hopefully I'm doing a small part," she said.
For some families that were lucky to come out of the storm unscathed, having a lavish celebration doesn't seem right.
Judy Casanova of Long Beach feels so fortunate that her parents, Regulo and Judith Celis, survived in their home four blocks from the ocean that her family is planning to serve meals at a citywide feast at the local ice-skating rink, followed by a small meal at home.
"We're definitely not having turkey this year," Ms. Casanova said. "Maybe some chicken and rice and a salad."
Patricia Straub of Freeport, N.Y., is contemplating ravioli for Thanksgiving. She and her 81-year-old mother still have no power or heat in their home. They can use the stove top of their gas stove, but not the oven, said Ms. Straub.
Their holiday dinner will be modest. "We'll give thanks, I'm just not sure how," said Ms. Straub, 52. "A lot of people have it so much worse. They have little kids, a lot of people are homeless."
Some displaced families are still deciding how to spend the day. Roni Anderson of Far Rockaway, Queens, who has been stuck at an airport hotel with her three children, had been considering trying to get funds together for a dinner at Sylvia's restaurant in Harlem. Or she might try to pull something together at the hotel, which charges around $15 per night for a mini fridge or microwave.
Her family's traditional meal features macaroni and cheese, collard greens and other Thanksgiving staples, like a cheesecake with cherry pie filling that was a favorite of her late mother.
"Not this year though," said Ms. Anderson. "We're just lucky to be alive."

CORPUS CHRISTI - The summer baseball season is coming to a close across the nation, and it was a successful one for several members of the Texas A&M - Corpus Christi baseball team.
A trio of Islanders were major contributors for the Hornell Dodgers this summer. Jeramie Marek, who was named a New York Collegiate Baseball League All-Star, finished the season at .318 with a team-high 22 stolen bases. In playing 44 games, mostly at shortstop, Marek also posted a .957 fielding percentage in helping the Dodgers go 22-22.
Omar Garcia also had a strong offensive summer for Hornell, hitting .313 with six doubles and a home run. On the mound, Bryce Zak was impressive as well, going 3-1 with a 3.33 ERA in 10 starts. The Angelo native punched out 54 batters to just 20 walks in 51 1/3 innings of work.
There are still a couple weeks left in the Northwoods League season, and Adam Hoelscher will look to continue to impress. A late addition to the Rochester Honkers, Hoelscher has punched out 15 batters in 15 2/3 innings with a 2.30 ERA. Elsewhere in the league, Michael Boyle has struck out 16 in 12 1/3 innings for the Waterloo Bucks, while Jumpy Garcia and Bobby Buckner had their seasons in the Northwoods cut short by injury.
Trevor Foss has had a solid summer for the Denver Cougars in the Rocky Mountain Baseball League. Foss struck out 41 batters to just 11 walks in 40 innings of work, and posted a 4-4 record. The Cougars went 23-11 and finished in third place in the RMBL.
Back in Texas, Weston Montgomery has helped the Blue Jays of the Dallas Amateur Baseball Association to a postseason berth. In the Karl Young League, Drew Vest and the Sand Crabs sit atop the standings with a 16-8 record. Alex Jack and Santiago Ruiz still have two weeks remaining on their summer with the Victoria Generals of the Texas Collegiate League.

Dutch graphic design legend Wim Crouwel now has his own iPhone app! Commissioned by the Design Museum to accompany their current retrospective of the typographic master's work, the app is an animated alarm clock featuring numbers designed by the man himself (naturally) and even features Wim himself saying phrases like "keep your grid straight today"! Brilliant!

Hi there, i am 35 years old and play in a recreational league and a competitive leage....i tore my ACL and Medial Meniscus on June 6, 2008....did treatment on the injury for 3 months straight, twice a week....September i stopped my treatment, met with an orthopedic surgeon, did my MRI in October and surgery Dec. 1, 2008...i am now just over 3 months into my rehab, my goal is to be back playing in june for my outdoor season...I miss it sooooo much...by the time i get back to playing it will be exactly a year.....IT SUCKS....it's a long process but one thing i can say, with the rehab program i am on, i will be fitter then i've ever been, and my legs will be stronger then they've ever been. I go to rehab three times a week, 3 hours each time i am there, and i feel AWESOME....pain, yes, still there, weakness, yes still there, but i think i;m doing pretty **** good for three months!!! All i can say is if you are determined to get better, and if you are consistent with your rehab program and work hard, you will get better, and you will be stronger and fitter then ever before....i know it's frusterating...there are days that i say, i just can't take it anymore, this really SUCKS!!! But on those days, i just think about my teams, the tournaments i've played in, the wonderful rush i feel when i get onto that field and believe that SOON i will be back to playing the sport that i LOVE....my passion.... Good luck to all you out there recovering from reconstructive ACL surgery!!! CHEERS!
I had a similiar accident before about 3years backs. I had to lay off footie for nearly 3 months.One piece of advice though, if you are not feeling 100%, don't push it. When I had mine, I thought I felt better and went back to play for about 10 minutes, I felt the pain again and that set back probably caused me to take longer to completely heal. Take your time, I bet you will be back to your best again in no time. Patience is key....

My favorite sports site
My daughter was 15 when she tore hers it was a nightmare first she was misdiagnosed and then the second doctor wanted to wait for the growth plates to set. Big mistake. She played for 1 whole year with the kneebrace but she was only 50% and in a lot of pain. Finally decided to look for a third opinion. This new doctor (young and he's specialty is ACL pediatric recostruction) he told us that it is possible to do the surgery around the growth plates. We did it and my daugfhter is now on her 4th month after surgery and counting the days when she'll be able to get back. She is already running (light jog) but she is happy she is finally touching the ball, for that same reason she doesnt want to loose her foot skills, so even when she is sitting down watching TV shell have the ball between her feet. Your son is young so my opinion is you should get it over with now before he starts getting serious about college. Good luck and keep me posted.
Unfortunately yes, I have been there. All of the negativity an discouragement is only usual. Like you, I was also a soccer player but I was just out of high school when i tore my acl and Meniscus. The problem with that injury is that it takes so freaking long to heal! So as months go by and your still feeling weak let me tell you that it's only normal. The stupid therapy sessions that seem to never end, the constant reminder that your injured due to the extreme halt in your soccer career. It's all very discouraging. Let me give you some advise and some things I wish I would of done differently.
Although the Physical therapy sucks and its probably a half hour drive everytime. Stick with it! I ended up giving up on mine after 3-4months into it. I just couldn't take it anymore(or so I thought) and it eventually caught up with me. My recovery took much longer and I'm still not and never will be 100%. It led me to becoming a couch potato and I regret my desicion even 2-3 years later. Hang in there! You still got half your varsity career left and you'll shine the most your Junior an Senior years anyways. The annoyance is much better then the regret. Trust me.
Never play sports again? Sounds familiar. Well let me just tell you right now, if you want to play sports again you will, unless you let the injury get to you mentally. I've finally picked my butt up and started playing again and it feels good, but I waited too long and lost the edge I used to have. Don't wait! get back in there a soon as your therapist says your ready to go! Go to an empty field and get your shot back and practice you touch. You'll be surprised on how much of your skills you DIDN"T lose. It took me a solid 2 years to get back on the field and even then I still had a good shot or two in me.
The guy or girl who goes into a 50/50 ball the weakest will always come out with an injury if there is one. So if you let your injury get to your head and you start playing conservatively you WILL get hurt . If you go in playing and have the same aggression and hunger as you did before you'll be fine. Keep in mind this injury is sort of like a freak accident for soccer players.Your knee had to be planted at the perfect time, and it had to be knocked in such a way that would provoke this injury. You became a statistic not by choice, but by luck of the draw. lightning never strikes in the same place twice, Unless your holding a ten foot steal poll. Go in there with the same heart you left the game with, and prove not only to your older teammates but to yourself that a bad dealt hand wont keep you from playing the next round. Your best High school soccer years are to come, so buckle up and do what you have to do. It will be as satisfying when your done as your first Varsity start.
My 11 year old son tore his ACL last Sept. He had surgery that didn't touch the growth plates. He is back practicing again 5 months later with a brace. The biggest factors he is dealing with now are conditioning/fitness. He was basically inactive for 5 months and now he is lagging behind his team in fitness. He was a very fit kid before. The fastest in his school. I'm planning to work with him this summer doing some running, etc. so hopefully he will be back in much better condition come fall. He is young, but I fear he will tear it again and basically be finished with soccer. I just want him to be able to do whatever he wants as a young boy and not be handicapped by this. I guess we just need to let him play. The doctor cleared him to play, but the fear is still there. He was playing up on an older competitive team. It is just a very sinking feeling as a parent to have a kid who is very athletic and competitive, and then to have them injured in such a way that may take away a big part of things they enjoy doing.
Baby steps I guess. One day at a time.
like many here on the replies, I have torn my ACL.Both of them, 4 years apart. Played at SClara '81-'85 and had 2 major injuries ACL right after. Posts about "you'll be playing before you know it" are dead on. But be patient and work hard.
Funny thing is: 20 years later, it's not my kness that are goin out, it's my ankles from the 100 times I had turned my ankles, sprained, swollen , taped up and went back out-and not cared enough to the future to rehab them correctly. Now, I am a mom of 4, had to quit playing, that killed me, but I have taken up biking and treading water, since my cartiledge is completely toast. I'm having stem cell procedures done (take bone marrow out of hips and reinjected into ankles to try to rejuvenate the cartiledge thats left...). The moral to my post here is: do your rehab. Do it like you play. Do it, complete it, and even tho it may take a bit longer to get back, you won't be a poster-child like me that touts "do your rehab".
My other reason for posting: anyone transfered their love of competition to a sport completely different to the one you left? Any words of wisdom?
I'm struggling with how to manage my love of one sport, being UNABLE play it, and also unable to live normally because of the pain, and trying to find my way into biking...

The New Year is a great time to work with your child on setting goals. From customizing a responsibility chart, to documenting New Year's Resolutions, children across all ages can explore and enjoy the concept of setting goals and priorities for the year ahead.
Our guest blogger Julie, from ayearwithmomanddad, shares a simple and charming way to engage your preschooler in goal-setting for the New Year in her recent blog post. In it, she includes a "Stars & Wishes" printable: A concept she used in her own classroom.
Here's how the activity works:
1) Ask your child to reflect on their "Star" moments for the year
2) Look ahead and anticipate all you "Wish" the New Year will hold for you!
Using the free printable, your child can practice some letter writing, or dictate their "Stars & Wishes" to an adult to help document.
Check out her complete blog post for tips on helping your child discover their "Starts & Wishes" such as:
– Asking the child to talk about their "firsts" from the year
– Naming key or significant events
– Asking the child what they would like to do again
– Using arts and crafts to create a list with pictures, photos, and more!

Very good apartement - also with kids, nice hood and good connections to public transportation.
Ben's apartment is a really fantasic place, which is very centrally located. we really enjoyed the beautiful view of the TV tower from our balcony and the open kitchen. the bedroom is equipped with a nice big bed. the kitchen is in a slightly worn condition with few kitchen items, but all in all I would definitely recommend Ben's apartment!
This was a lovely apartment located in a very convenient place! Both my boyfriend and I have been and lived in Berlin before, and knew this was a very good location, right around the corner from the M4 tram, and a short walk from U/S-bahn stops. Gorgeous view from the top floor of the apartment, quiet location. The kitchen and bathroom was perfect for two people, although the outlets in the bathroom were not working. Ben was very easy to work with and contact. Picked up the keys from the spati downstairs, and had no problems accessing the apartment and checking out. I highly recommend this apartment for a couple.
Very nice apartment, with great lightening and furniture. Walking distance to Alexander Platz and easy to find. Easy to catch the train just outside the frontdoor. If you come by car, it's difficult to find parking spots. We had to park 2-3 km from the apartment in a parkinghouse.
Great apartment - spacious, lots of sunlight through the many windows, great view on balconies, elevator to the 7th floor, wifi included.
The location is 10 minutes Walk from Alexanderplatz.
We had a very nice stay in Berlin. We could pick up the keys at a lokal shop as we arranged.
The appartment was clean and pleasant. There were fresh towels.
The appartment was on the top floor, so during the summer it can be hot. The view was beautifull.
Accross the appartment there was a very nice parc! Perfect for a walk, or just sit and relax.
Beneath there was a pizzeria and a shop where you could buy bread and so.
The contact with the host was only through email, but that did not boughter me.
I recommend this appartment.
We really enjoyed our stay in this appartment. It is bright, clean, nice and cosy. All of us slept very well, two of us in the bedroom and three in the livingroom. It is situated closely near one of the largest parks of Berlin. It is also very close to various options of public transport (bus 200 and tram M4), which have a direct link to the centre of Berlin, Museum Insel etc.
Hemos estado 10 días en el apartamento, nos ha encantado, es tal cual aparece en las fotografías, luminoso, céntrico y bien comunicado. Hemos realizado también con ellos los servicios de transporte del aeropuerto al apartamento y todo sin problemas. volvemos a Berlín
sin duda volveremos a ese apartamento
Die FeWo hat eine hervorragende,verkehrsmäßig sehr gute Lage,sie ist zweckmäßig und gut eingerichtet.Etwas mehr an Küchengeschirr wäre angesagt.
Der gegenüberliegende Park Friedrichshain lädt zu schönen Sparziergängen ein.
Der Vermieter ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit,die Betreuung der Wohnung und die Schlüsselübergabe haben gut geklappt.
Kurzum,wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Chicken Deviled Eggs
When I read that today was national deviled egg day, I rejoiced not only because I love deviled eggs, but because I was blessed with inspiration. Without going into the entire mental battle of which came first, the chicken or the egg, I was pleased to be able to combine them both in one recipe. See? No fighting, no arguments, and as long as no one asks why the chicken crossed the road, this blog post is coming together without a hitch.
By the way, you're going to notice a lot more of this type of recipe in the next month or two. I'm all about appetizers, mayonnaise and cream cheese when Thanksgiving and Christmas roll around. And with that info, let me advise you to mark your calendars for the opening day of Cream Cheese Season, which officially starts on Thanksgiving Day and runs through New Years Day. And unlike deer-hunting season, there's no limit! Go cream cheese yourself to your heart's delight!
Chicken Deviled Eggs
6 hard boiled eggs, peeled
1/2 cup chopped, seasoned and cooked chicken breast meat
1/4 cup Miracle Whip salad dressing
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp yellow mustard
1/2 tsp dry mustard
3/4-1 tsp hot sauce (I used sriracha)
Pulse chicken in food processor until finely crumbled. Slice eggs in half, lengthwise, and place yolks in food processor with the chicken. Process until finely crumbled.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Add mixture to food processor and process until smooth.
Fill egg whites with mixture and garnish with paprika if desired.

Deviled eggs are a perennial favorite. I always reach for them first on a buffet table! Never have made them with chicken though. Will try these, Mags!

I know where you are coming from, and there are some days you want to make an old stand by!
Mmmmm...I love deviled eggs too. I would make these with the sriracha, I love it, but not the Miricle whipp. It would have to be mayo!

Mmm these look delish, and twisted at the same time...there seems something very wrong with stuffing chicken meat into a chicken egg, maybe that's just me still in the Halloween spirit :).
LOL re: cream cheese season. So true.

I do love deviled eggs. I've never had chicken in them, but it's a natural combination! They sound yummy!

My deviled eggs consist of the egg and mayo(not very adventurous). These are very gourmet, especially with chicken! You go, Mags!

- The Mom Chef said...
There's chicken in there? Cool. Makes it all go even farther. You know, a friend of mine once actually commented that she didn't know paprika had a flavor. She thought it was just something people used to make deviled eggs colorful. (Big ole' eye roll.)
- November 3, 2010 at 12:46 PM
- Jen @ My Kitchen Addiction said...
Wow... Fun idea to add chicken to the deviled eggs! I know how you feel about menu block... I've been suffering from that a lot lately.

Don't Bank on 'Great Rotation' Into Stocks Just Yet
All of a sudden investors love stocks.
That's one way to interpret the fact that cash has flooded into stock funds to kick off the new year. But as the chart shows, take the latest figures with a grain of salt. One strong week of inflows doesn't even come close to erasing the massive amount of outflows that have taken place since the financial crisis.
Whether this past week was an aberration or a sign of things to come remains to be seen. Some market observers are skeptical the "great rotation" is underway. Our colleague Patrick McGee offers details:
JPMorgan credit strategist Eric Beinstein says talk of a rotation from equities to bonds looks a bit premature, despite $19 billion flowing into equities this week and inflows into high-grade ETFs coming to a halt. "Credit managers report ongoing demand, new issues are well bid, and spreads have rallied YTD, so [there is] little actual evidence of a reallocation," he says in a report.
In other words, stocks will need to see quite a few weeks of big inflows before people really start believing that this trend is here to stay.
Investors poured $18 billion into U.S. equity funds and ETFs this past week, according to data provider Lipper, far surpassing the biggest week of inflows last year. Michael Hartnett, chief investment strategist at BofA Merrill Lynch, explains in a research note that this week's figures mark the biggest weekly cash influx into stocks since June 2008 and the fourth-largest inflow since 2000.
Here's WSJ's analysis of the latest fund-flow data:
The rush comes after stocks hit five-year highs in the first trading week of 2013, juiced by news that Congress reached an agreement to avert a wide raft of tax increases and spending cuts. It also comes after the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index notched a 13% gain in 2012, its best year since 2009.
Cash flows into bond funds remained healthy but were overshadowed by the rush into stocks.
"Investors are starting to get the idea that you're not going to see the kind of return in bonds that we have recently," said Michael Rawson, an analyst with Morningstar.

Nov. 22, 2011 -- Though toy makers have made major safety strides in recent years, many hazardous toys can still be found on store shelves or online, a consumer watchdog group says in a new report.
Toys with small parts are choking hazards, and some toys contain toxic chemicals, including lead, according to the report, "Trouble in Toyland," by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group (PIRG).
According to the report, many toys are too loud and could lead to hearing damage. Others may pose choking risks, including balloons, which cause more choking deaths than any other product for kids.
The organization did not rank toys in terms of degree of danger, but listed nine as potentially toxic for containing lead or chemicals called phthalates:
- Funny Glasses, manufactured by Joking Around, due to phthalates.
- Sleep Mask, made by Claire's, for phthalates.
- Little Hands Love Book, made by Piggie Toes Press, for lead.
- Whirly Wheel, manufactured by LL, for lead.
- Spritz Medals, manufactured by Spritz, for lead.
- Hello Kitty eyeshadow/keychain, Hello Kitty/Sanrio, for lead.
- Tinkerbell Watch, Disney Fairies, for lead.
- Peace Sign Bracelet, Family Dollar, for lead.
- Honda motorcycle, Honda, for lead.

Note: Published op-ed.
I�ve just read a news item about a 16-year-old girl who violated a court order by Tweeting the names of two boys who sexually assaulted her at a party last summer. The boys� lawyers filed motions that she be held in contempt of court and she could theoretically have faced jail time.
Theoretically, let�s get real. The judge�s gag order would almost certainly have been overturned, if it ever got that far. But she faced them down and the boys� lawyers blinked.
The young lady has identified herself, but I won�t use her name here. If you wish to find out about the case, google the title of this column. The case is in Kentucky.
Firstly I have to say I admire the young lady�s courage and outspoken defiance, and I totally agree the two boys got off easy with a plea bargain. I personally favor a public flogging � and I do not mean that figuratively.
I have to say that firstly, because a lot of people are going to be very angry with what I have to say secondly.
According to the article, what happened was the girl passed out drunk at a party. Two boys, both students at a prestigious private school, neither with a criminal record, partially undressed her, took unforgivable liberties with her body while stopping short of the strict definition of rape, and took pictures with their cell phone cameras. The victim knew the boys but only slightly, according to the news accounts.
The girl woke up the next morning not knowing quite what had happened, and only found out about it months later when she heard rumors of the existence of the photos.
I always read of such cases with a sense of despair.
Despair, because this kind of trauma is so easy to avoid, because so much pernicious nonsense is written about it, and because talking sense about it will get you accused of �blaming the victim.�
So who am I to talk about it?
I am, like the mother of the victim, a single parent of a little girl who will all-too-soon be a beautiful young woman. I have close friends who are rape victims. I am a ranked instructor in two martial arts, with intermediate to advanced training in about a half-dozen others, and a certified instructor of military combatives. And I just avoided a rape attempt when I was about 11 years old.
When cases such as this get media attention notes go up all over Facebook about how we live in a �rape culture,� and
�Rather than teach girls how not to get raped, we need to teach boys not to rape.�
Nonsense on stilts. Who the heck teaches their sons to rape women in this country?
Rape in our country is, thank God, relatively rare compared to theft and simple assault, and stranger rape is the least common.
Precautions against stranger rape are cheap and simple, essentially identical to the precautions one would take against robbery. They involve good locks, security systems, situational awareness, and avoidance strategies far more than carrying a gun or spending years in martial arts training to become a �human weapon.�
That�s the good news.
The bad news is, sexual assault, like simple assault and murder, is mostly committed by a perpetrator the victim knew, at least slightly, while engaging in high-risk behaviors, such as passing out at parties surrounded by strangers.
Again, IT IS NOT BLAMING THE VICTIM to say certain behaviors put one at risk. A very old friend of mine was raped by a hitch hiker she picked up while she was driving alone. When she told me the story, the tears I saw in her eyes tore my heart out � which does not change the fact that picking up a hitch hiker was a serious error in judgment for a woman alone.
More of us than ever before are raising children alone, which no matter how devoted we are limits the time we can supervise them. Alcohol is, face it, easy enough for teens to come by. And cell phone cameras are in the wrong hands a terrible weapon for casual humiliation.
The greatest weapon we have to protect our children is neither guns, nor martial arts, but information. Fortunately,
it is available for free here:

Some of it is disturbing, and the advice therein excites a fair number of critics. Just go there. As it says, �We�re about prevention, not damage control.�
