AMID tears of joy and flashes of frustration, residents of Indian Kashmir yesterday made the first phone calls to the Pakistani side of the region in 15 years, desperate to find out what had become of family members caught in the massive earthquake earlier this month.
"I am very satisfied that I was able to speak [to my uncle]. I have been on tenterhooks all this while," said an overwhelmed Abdul Ghani, tears rolling down his cheeks. He had travelled 37 miles from his home town of Bandipora to call his uncle in Muzaffarabad, the capital of Pakistani Kashmir.
The Indian authorities have set up four centres providing free calls, but say they will be open for only two weeks.
Two of them are in the towns of Uri and Tangdhar, the worst-hit in Indian Kashmir, where the 7.6-magnitude quake on 8 October killed more than 1,300 people.
The families of many Kashmiris were torn apart when the territory was divided by a ceasefire line following a war between India and Pakistan in 1948.
India cut communications between its Jammu-Kashmir state and all of Pakistan in 1990 in an effort to stem an Islamic insurgency. Pakistanis, however, could still make direct calls to Indian Kashmir.
Distrust of the Indian government runs deep in Kashmir and some disaffected callers claimed the new phone service was a propaganda ploy. "It is useless. Most of us haven't been able to talk," said Imtiyaz Ahmad, who, along with many other would-be callers, left the Srinagar centre disappointed.
Indian Kashmir's separatists - who had been demanding the restoration of telephone links since the quake - welcomed the move but demanded the phone service be made permanent.
"The government should make this facility permanent and people should be able to call directly from their homes," the separatist leader, Umar Farooq, said.
Meanwhile, regional officials in Pakistan say new figures have pushed the death toll to nearly 79,000, although the official government toll stands at 47,700.
A strong aftershock measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale jolted the region yesterday, unleashing landslides and alarming survivors of the main quake.
The first aftershock caused a landslide in Balakot, one of the cities hardest hit on 8 October. Debris covered the road to nearby Mansehra, but it was quickly cleared. A landslide also blocked a road out of Muzaffarabad, but it was expected to be cleared later.
In Indian-held Kashmir, the new tremors startled thousands of people in relief camps, including those in the Uri and Tangdhar districts, near the boundary with the Pakistani-held territory.
Despite regular sorties by helicopters delivering aid to quake victims, an estimated 500,000 survivors, many of them in Pakistan's portion of Kashmir, have yet to receive any help.

Deadline Now: Toledo Mayor Mike Bell
Friday, January 13, 2012
Toledo Mayor Michael P. Bell looks back at his first two years in office, and looks ahead to challenges and opportunities for the city. Claudia Boyd-Barrett, staff writer for The Blade, joins host Jack Lessenberry for the conversation.
Here are Jack Lessenberry's Final Thoughts for this edition of Deadline Now:
Mayor Mike Bell had one perfect moment this year in which everyone agreed he was a hero who had done exactly the right thing.
Driving home one evening in November, he saw a frightened and lost little boy aimlessly walking the streets near Monroe and Talmadge. Turns out the child had been left behind after a party at Chuck E Cheese's. The mayor rescued the boy and helped reunite him with his family.
Most everything else that happened in 2011 was much more complicated. Some of the city's problems are clearly not the Bell administration's fault. They didn't cause the economic downtown.
Nor can the city's budget problems all be pinned on this administration, regardless of who is to blame for most of the deficit. But it is clear that the neighborhood department scandal is a black eye for this administration, however it turns out. When the mayor rescued the little boy, one major problem was that the parents had failed to teach the six-year-old his address and phone number.
What seems painfully clear is that whoever is ultimately most at fault, there was not sufficient oversight in the neighborhoods department. Any system where a vast amount of contracting work seems to have been improperly steered to a partnership between a shadowy felon and a disbarred lawyer has failed. President Harry Truman used to have a sign on his desk that said, "The buck stops here." In the case of Toledo, that sign belongs on the mayor's desk.
But regardless of how all this turns out, the major problem the city faces continues to be the economy -- and how to adapt to a world where the automotive industry can no longer be counted on to produce vast numbers of good-paying jobs for unskilled labor, Nobody can deny the mayor has done his best to court new jobs and investors from overseas -- and has already scored some successes.
Whatever your politics, you have to hope this bears much more fruit in the coming year.

Girls and Self Esteem
Hi ladies,
Did you have high self esteem as a young girl?
If you could give young girls advice about reaching their full potential, what would it be?
I had my ups and downs with my self esteem. When I was a young child I had no problems with it, but in high school things changed. I got picked on a lot and I had bad acne so I never really felt great about myself. All that changed when I got out of high school and into the real world, I realized everyone has their insecurities to deal with. I needed to find my strengths and let them shine through. After high school I found out that a girl I went to school with looked up to me and strove to be like me. I couldn't believe it, I was really shocked. What I have in bold is what I would tell young girls.
ETA: There is really so much more I want to add but I don't want to start preaching. lol
Same here, only it was my mom who torn it to pieces. My dad always called me beautiful. If only he had gotten custody instead of my mom. But of course my life would be drastically different than what it is, and I wouldn't trade my children for anything.
Quoting mandapanda21:
Growing up, I had VERY low self esteem. Lets just say my dad was a complete jerk. I married the man of my dreams, my hero almost 5 years ago and I feel a lot better about myself. He tells me I'm beautiful all the time, it just feels good to hear it.
I very rarely bother to check a board twice, so debate, get mad, or whatever it is that'll make you feel better, if you don't like what I have to say, because it won't bother me :)
I had abusive parents and literally no self esteem; so when the first boy paid attention to me at only 15 years old, I eloped with him when I was 18, had baby at 19, he left us when I was 21. I've struggled always with bad self esteem, but my good looks and success in business helped, but all I wanted was a nice family life. Now I'm 53, my company went out of business, I'm chubby and I'm right back to where I was when I was a kid. Sounds silly, but those parent tapes in my head play over and over.
I was picked on big time by the other kids because I was so tall and skinny and smart. Not only that but I was a top tennis player as well. I never cared about the other kids. I knew they were jealous. I had a plan and I stuck to my plan. I got a full scholarship to a university to study and play tennis and I left all the haters behind. I never really cared if people liked me or not.
Now that I have three girls, I never really thought about self-esteem issues. My girls are very busy playing tennis and studying. They play about 6 hrs of tennis a day in the summer and about 3-4 hours a day when school is in session. I think sports really helps girls with self-esteem. They learn so much when they compete.
I model self love and confidence. I run daily, eat healthily and take care of myself. I am fit and strong and when people try to bully me, I address the issue right away. This way they see how to deal with conflict and adversity. Once another mother told my 8 year old that my 11 year was a cheater (on the tennis court). I got on her face right away in front of my 8 year old and demanded that she apologize immediately to my 8 yr old for her very inappropriate comment. Stuff like that.
Beign this way, does not come easy. I have read lots of books and articles on confidence and self-esteem, etc. I am still learning and doing the best I can. But it helps that I am not a follower, but more so a leader. And I don't believe the crap that people tell you. My PE teacher in elementary school told me I was slow and could not run fast. Idiot! I have run a 5:30 mile as a 36 year old. As a kid, I won a 200 m race once. If you want it badly enough, you will work hard to achieve your goal.
Anyway, I teach these concepts every day.
I had VERY low self worth growing up. I was Bullied K-12th grade. I was Bullemic. I was called "It" to the point where being refered to as a "she" has become a compliment. LOL Pathetic, I know.
That is the LAST thing I want for my girls. I tell then everyday how beautiful and special they are. I'm trying to teach them that they can grow up to be whatever they want to be if they are willing to work hard enough. I'm busting my butt getting through Nursing School, hoping to be a positive example for them.
I had bad self esteem growing up. I now tell my daughter kids are mean and as long as she is polite and kind no matter how hard it is now it will be all different when she is out of school

This week marked the 50th anniversary of the 1964 Brazilian military coup. The coup remains divisive in Brazilian society: Colin M. Snider notes a recent disruption in the country's congress when a right-wing politician's supporters hung a banner celebrating the military's actions because 'thanks to you Brazil isn't Cuba.' Pablo Uchoa remembers the torture of his father, torture Brazil's military is only beginning to investigate. In an intersection between politics, memory, and social media, the social media team of Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff — herself tortured by the military regime — recently changed her page's Facebook profile picture to an image of her at the time.
As violent political unrest continues in Venezuela — the death toll from ongoing protests reached 39 this week — President Nicolás Maduro attacked the opposition in a New York Times op-ed as seeking "to reverse the gains of the democratic process that have benefited the vast majority of the people"; the message is notable for attempting to speak to a US audience, a possible indication that the government fears the prospect of US sanctions. Last week Thomas O'Donnell looked at the government's economically-risky strategy of pulling out the stops to alleviate shortages in the short-term.

In the wake of an ugly incident in Bangui where Chadian soldiers killed 30 civilians in disputed circumstances (via Laura Seay), Chad is pulling its forces from the African Union force in the Central African Republic in protest of claims they have aided mostly-Muslim ex-Seleka fighters. Via Jay Ulfelder, the UN now hopes to evacuate 19,000 CAR Muslims from regions where they are threatened by anti-balaka militias.

He says he's a dog lover, and Michael Vick has an answer for anyone who questions his assertion.
"I know it may seem contradictory, but that's just the person that I was," he told Piers Morgan in an exclusive interview Tuesday night. "On one hand, I loved dogs, and on the other hand, I was in love with the competition behind [dogfighting], and for some reason I couldn't really see the meaning behind it, or why I was really doing it."
The NFL quarterback, who served three years in prison for running a dogfighting ring, appeared on CNN's Piers Morgan Tonight to promote his new autobiography, Finally Free, in which he chronicles his road to redemption, his love of dogs from a early age and witnessing his first dogfight at age 8.
He hopes his children will soon be able to experience a dog in their lives as well. This month, Vick's three-year ban from owning a dog expires.
"I can't take that dream away from them," he told Morgan. "That's selfish on my behalf. You know, so, gotta find a way to make it right and, you know, I put everything in God's hands to make it right."
Asked what type of dog he would get, Vick said, "I would let them pick it out. Certainly wouldn't be a pit bull."
Forever connected with that breed after 66 fighting dogs and 8 dead pit bulls were discovered in a raid on his Virginia home in 2007, Morgan asked Vick where he was on that fateful day.
"I was on the golf course, probably playing one of the best games of my life," he recalled. "I just immediately thought that everything was going to come crashing down."
The lowest point of the fall Vick said was when he told his son he was going to prison for two years. "The only thing I could tell him was that Daddy was leaving," he said. "[It was the] toughest moment of my life, tougher than any football game that I've lost."
In the years to come, Vick says it's more important for him to be understood than to be liked by any of his critics.
"Some people are going to like you, some people aren't. Just for certain reasons that are unexplainable and I won't try to understand," he said. "But I think it's important that I'm understood and people understand in a certain sense, why."

A Big Easy Thanksgiving
Poppy Tooker shows how to add Southern flair to your Thanksgiving feast
Poppy Tooker shows how to add Southern flair to your Thanksgiving feast
Native New Orleanian Poppy Tooker presents a classic Big Easy Thanksgiving dinner natives will recognize and newcomers will savor. The renowned chef, cooking teacher and radio-show host shares nine recipes that aptly represent the rich flavors and history of the region—and are sure to jazz up your Thanksgiving menu. Ready to add authentic Southern flair to your Thanksgiving feast? Let's dig in!
Classic Louisiana Shrimp Salad
Fried Turkey With Spicy Bourbon Marinade
Classic Louisiana Shrimp Salad
"This is the perfect way to start a meal; the flavors are so bright," says Poppy.
"This is my most-sought-after recipe. Nobody takes a cooking class in New Orleans from me without learning how to make gumbo," says Poppy. Serve this classic Creole dish over cooked rice.
"When my great-grandmother died, she didn't leave written recipes," says Poppy. "So I cooked everything I remembered eating at her table, including these mirlitons, and had my daddy taste it until he said, 'Yes, this is just like Mamman's.' "
Poppy's Spicy Bourbon Marinade
Poppy injects this marinade into the turkey her husband fries for Thanksgiving. Use it with your own favorite method of frying turkey.
"Bread stuffing would never have had a place in the rural parts of Louisiana where Mamman was from because wheat didn't grow there," Poppy explains. "Down here, we're all about rice." Poppy also offers these additional side dishes to add to your Thanksgiving table: Meat Dressing and Peas in a Roux.
"Mamman's bread pudding made a big impression on me as a small child when it would come to the table dripping with sauce and filled with plump raisins and pecans," Poppy remembers.
"Café brûlot is from the Armagnac region of France, where they call it café diable," says Poppy. "I learned to make this from enjoying it at classic New Orleans restaurants, like Antoine's and Galatoire's, where it's a standard ending to any festive meal."
Poppy Tooker is a lifelong New Orleanian who champions New Orleans food and culture. She hosts Louisiana Eats!, a weekly, NPR-affiliated radio show, and appears every Friday on Steppin' Out, an arts and entertainment show on WYES television. In between shows, she writes about food, teaches classes and makes sure her three Chinese pugs are fat and happy! For more of Poppy's culinary magic, stop by her website: poppytooker.com
I wish I could try SO many of those recipes but I am allergic to shellfish. :-(
Some of these sound good, but they wouldn't go over well on a Thanksgiving in my house.
I wouldn't necessarily serve them for Thanksgiving, but these are some great recipes! Gotta try the gumbo.
oooh a lot of that looks so yummy! too bad my family won't eat most of that.

Process Development Jobs Still the Most...
Adapting to Evolving Business Environments Is...
As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
Wall Street Decline Takes Its Toll...
Bear Stearns, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, Washington Mutual, and Wachovia are gone; the government owns AIG, and by the time this article is published we may all own General Motors, Ford, and Chrysler.
The economy around us is evolving in ways no one would have predicted, but if old-economy industries like banking and automobile manufacturing can undergo such radical transformation in such a short period of time, where does that leave biotechnology?
Biotechnology lives at the periphery of the capital markets, where investing, speculation, and blind faith merge to create several billions of dollars a year of support for hundreds of development programs, most of which will ultimately fall far short of earning back the money that was raised and spent developing them.
Arguably, the most speculative and risky sector of the investable markets, biotech is exquisitely sensitive to the state of the economy, particularly that of the financial industry that facilitates the transactions that are biotech's lifeline. When markets are strong and stock prices rise, investment banks raise funds with relative ease. Investors flock to highly volatile assets, drawn by the potential for huge upside gains. In down markets, investors move to safety, away from industries like biotech.
In theory, prudent management raises money during the booms and rides out the low stock prices of the downturns. But there are always reasons to defer a capital raise: imminent data, an about-to-be consummated partnership, or the expected acceptance of a grant proposal. Better to raise money later, when the market better understands the true value of the company.
But, unfortunately, management is no better at forecasting general market downturns than economists or chairmen of the Federal Reserve. During bear markets, valuation becomes a secondary consideration in stock buy-and-sell decisions, as institutional buyers sell stock indiscriminately to meet redemption calls and individual investors follow the institutions. Suddenly, companies find they are unable to raise capital at any valuation, regardless of the advances in their clinical programs.
Many biotech employees, as well as postdocs planning to leave academia for industry, give little thought to the financial state of the companies where they work or plan to work. Unfortunately, the biotech workforce stands to suffer the most when a good company succumbs to a bad market.
How does one take the financial pulse of a company? Thankfully, there are readily available sources of information, and one need not have an MBA to understand them.
The key question regarding any money-burning company is: what is the state of the balance sheet and the rate of cash usage? In other words, how much cash does the company have, how much does it owe, and how much cash is the company burning per year?
For publicly traded companies, this information is readily available. Each company has an office of investor relations that will forward the companies' quarterly reports and other public filings; alternatively, websites like Yahoo Finance and Google publish summaries of each company's publicly disclosed numbers. Private companies, unfortunately, do not need to disclose the details of their financial condition. Prospective employees probably have maximal leverage to get this information by asking management directly during the recruitment phase.
Financial numbers are not difficult to understand. There are three financial statements that every publicly traded company needs to file and disclose four times a year: the balance sheet, income statement, and cash flow statement.
The balance sheet provides a snapshot-in-time view of the financial condition of the company. The left-hand column shows assets (things the company owns, including cash) while the right-hand column shows liabilities such as debts or services for which the company has been paid but has not yet delivered. The difference between the assets and liabilities represents the owners' equity, the portion of the company's assets that are not claimed by creditors.
The most important part of the balance sheet is the cash and equivalents part of the assets column. The cash-flow statement then summarizes cash outflows: from operating activities (day-to-day expenses from running the business), investing activities (one-time expenditures on big-ticket items plus interest expense minus interest earned), and financing activities (if the company sold stock or borrowed money).
Another simpler method for assessing the pulse of the company's financial condition is to listen to the company's quarterly conference call. Financial websites dedicate a page to every company, and the company page usually links to a webcast of the company conference call. Cash balances and cash burn are always explicitly addressed during these calls. Each conference call is split into two sections, a prepared statement and a Q&A portion during which Wall Street analysts and investors request clarifications and express concerns.
How does one interpret the numbers? A useful metric is the total of cash divided by the yearly cash burn. In other words, how long can the company continue to run its business without raising money?
A period in excess of two years should be enough to weather most down markets, as long as spending is not scheduled to increase significantly. Conversely, many experienced investors will not buy stock on the open market when there is less than a year or 18 months of cash on the balance sheet, since they know that a stock offering, at a discount to market, is coming. In these cases employees, or prospective employees, are certainly justified in directly asking management how they intend to fund the company as the money is running out: stock sales? Partnerships with pharmaceutical companies? Grants?
If management suggests that they plan to raise money by selling stock, recognize that there are limits to how much can be raised. Raising a sum greater than 20% of the company's total market value requires shareholder approval in most cases, and managements' in general. Try to avoid this drawn out and somewhat expensive process.
Five to ten minutes on a financial website plus 20 to 30 minutes invested in listening to the replay of a quarterly conference call provides a snapshot of a company's financial strength. A biotechnology company's financial condition is at least as important for its survival as the science and intellectual property upon which the company is based. In difficult markets, it is much more so. Knowing how to assess that financial condition is a critical part of navigating a career in biotechnology.

We were at a cook-out last night and the boys were playing Rock Paper Scissors Tag in the backyard.
I was talking with some folks and heard my child crying, so I went to investigate.
He wasn't crying, he was screaming. Doug was carrying him in and reported, "He fell on a cactus."
His hands were filled with cactus needles. Tiny, flesh colored so they were nearly invisible, cactus needles.
We took him in to the bathroom, in search of tweezers. Anywhere you touched him around his hands, he screamed. It was awful.
He stuck me with on of the needles when his hand hit mine – and we both yelled, "Ow!" at the same time. Those suckers hurt!
Once we tracked down tweezers, we quickly realized the lighting in the bathroom wasn't adequate, and he was just constantly screaming.
I grabbed him with every intention of bringing him to the emergency room.
Once we got him outside, I sat him down for a second to try and calm him down, and realized that the light was much better outside. So, I took the tweezers and started trying to take the needles out again. They were everywhere. The sides of his hand, his inner wrist, around his little fingers and mostly in the palm.
He winced at every extraction, and after a few minutes, calmed down enough to actually point out where he felt some of them. Johanna tried to distract him, and then her son Paxton did a really great job of distracting him. After one hand was mostly clear, we got some ice from the cooler to help numb him.
Once the one hand was clear, he was such a trooper for the other hand. We tried duct tape to see if that would pull out multiple needles at once, but I think by that time, we had gotten most of them out. As we finished up, I told him that he could have some cherry pie when we were done. That gave him much to look forward to.
I ran the ice along this hands and wrists to see if there were any more, and said his hands were clear. We wiped him down with an antiseptic wipe, then headed inside to wash up for cherry pie.
As he had his cherry pie, I indulged in a shot of tequila to calm my frazzled nerves.
And after his cherry pie, the boys played Wii the rest of the night.
When we were leaving, Brian dubbed him "Cactus Boy." :wink2:
When we got home hours later, he complained that his hand hurt again (hmmm, didn't hurt while playing Wii). After child interrogation, he finally revealed that it felt like he had another needle in his hand. Sure enough, with the help of a magnifying glass, I found and extracted it.
Whew! That was an ordeal.
Note to self: get Bactine or some other numbing spray for the first aid kit.

Pop tarts, pizza, donuts, pasta, chips......naah. I'll have to pass on those. I, however can see myself having a huge slice of some fancy sheet cake with chocolate mousse perhaps as my "end of days" dessert after a nice Primal meal.
Yesterday morning at about 4;00am, a big windstorm with heavy rain tore through my area.
It was so loud, and the rain was so heavy on the side of my house that it woke me up.
I thought....is this it?
Guess not.

I don't think I'd eat anything if I knew it was my last day
This is neat: Last suppers: the final meals of death row prisoners recreated by James Reynolds - Telegraph
Lox, goat cheese (gotta have an appetizer). Then just about every cheese I could find (not yellow bricks, the good stuff) from any animal and any country. Have to have pate and hard salami with that. And if I really believed it was the end of the world, I'd eat some sourdough bread. Large quantities of Herradura silver (some of that in bullet proof espresso). I might even splurge on a couple of beers I've never tried even though beer here is stupidly expensive. Cigarettes and a good cigar. As many illegal drugs as I could find. Sex with a stranger (or a loved one if there was one handy).
Hey wait, that sounds a lot like Mardi Gras.

However, I do have some experience with this one. E-speak was a capability system along the lines Jed advocates, protection only between processes. We were able to provide capability wrappers for any legacy applications that communicated over sockets. We simply had the socket connect to the wrapper instead of the intended endpoint. The wrapper did its thing and forwarded the requests to a wrapper for the endpoint. Of course, the granularity wasn't as fine as we could have done rewriting from scratch, but it was surprisingly good. For example, it took a knowledgeable person three days to provide a wrapper for the purchase order component of SAP. The wrapper was able to convey and enforce capabilities for creating, finding, reading, and modifying purchase orders. So, perhaps "out of the running" is a bit too strong a statement. ________________________ Alan Karp Principal Scientist Virus Safe Computing Initiative Hewlett-Packard Laboratories 1501 Page Mill Road Palo Alto, CA 94304 (650) 857-3967, fax (650) 857-7029 https://ecardfile.com/id/Alan_Karp http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Alan_Karp -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I have seen it twice before and this was better in some ways. Fantasia brings a different energy and some of the choreography and staging was different. Great production with solid acting and some great singing.

I am a new Fantasia fan. I went to the show because i love the movie Color Purple. This play was amazing and I couldt imagine anyone else BUT Fantasia playing Celie. She was flawless, her voice, WOW, great. I could see this again and again.

People in our area are working to help families who lost everything in the Central Arkansas tornadoes.
Students at NWACC are collecting canned goods and other items for families in need.
Inside the Shewmaker Center for Global Business Development, signs are posted on the door and throughout the building asking for donations.
Students acted quickly, organizing the collection drive on Monday.
They still need help.
"We're making it easy," said Sandi Reichenbach, student at NWACC. "It would be such a great opportunity to help in the smallest way possible."
Donations will be delivered to the Beryl Baptist Church in Vilonia.

Vaccines offer children protection against deadly diseases
Chris Serafini, D.O., knows the best way to deal with immunization season is to have a fully loaded treasure chest in the office.
August is a busy month for childhood vaccines at Saint Vincent's Millcreek Family Practice, 145 W. 23rd St. Many families bring in their children for the needed shots before the school year begins.
"I just restocked the treasure chest," Serafini said. "It's important to have something to give the kids after they get a shot, so they know they will be rewarded."
Vaccine shots can be painful for a moment, but they offer up to a lifetime of protection from 16 potentially harmful diseases such as polio, mumps and measles, Serafini said.
The value of vaccines has been debated in recent years, as some parents question whether some of them are needed or can possibly cause other serious illnesses such as autism.
"We get quite a few questions about autism," Serafini said. "We tell parents that there are no valid studies that have shown a link between any of the vaccines and autism."
But vaccines are proven to prevent diseases that can harm and even kill children, said Leann Williams, R.N., head nurse for the Erie School District.
The school district has been pushing to make sure all of its students are vaccinated. Pennsylvania law requires children to be up to date on their immunizations by May 1 of each year or they can't attend school.
"We don't want these children to come down with any of these diseases," Williams said. "They're still out there. We are seeing cases of pertussis (whooping cough) -- it's on the rise."
Vaccines help prevent certain diseases by imitating them in the body, which causes the immune system to develop a response similar to what it does for the real illness. That's why some children get a mild fever or achiness after a shot.
Most of the shots are given by the time a child is 18 months old, but boosters are required later in life, several of them when a child turns 4.
"The 4-year-olds can have a tough time with shots because they are old enough to understand pain," Serafini said.
Serafini and Kris Balinski, R.N., a nursing supervisor with the Erie County Department of Health, offered a few tips for parents to help calm their child for immunizations:
Don't lie. "It doesn't help when the parent lies about why they are going to the clinic or the doctor's office," Balinski said. "It makes the child more scared and less likely to cooperate."
Discuss the shots beforehand. Prepare the child for what will happen, said Serafini, who has four young children.
"You can have a talk," Serafini said. "Tell them they are going to get a boo-boo. You can use the word 'shot'; don't dance around it. Tell them it will feel like a pinch."
Give children a dose of acetaminophen or ibuprofen. "Give it to them about 45 minutes before their appointment," Serafini said. "It will help with any fever or soreness."
Let your children sit on your lap. "Hold their hand and help them concentrate on something else, like counting to 10," Balinski said.

Estonia and Finland 2009
We called it a Holiday of Singing plus Independent Exploration with Guidance. From 23-28 May 2009 we toured Tallinn in Estonia and Helsinki and Tampere in Finland, taking a choir of over 50 plus some supporters, with Ronald Corp and organist Daniel Moult.
We travelled independently so people could add on some days to their holiday and travel north in Finland to see the Midnight Sun or travel east to visit St Petersburg.
The heart of Tallinn is a semi-pedestrianised picturesque old town with ancient walls and many buildings dating from the 16th century. All concert venues and most museums and attractions are within the city walls. We stayed in the Hotel Kalev Spa, adjacent to the city wall and including a spa with an Olympic-sized swimming pool. The harbour boat terminal for Helsinki could be seen from the hotel just a few hundred yards away. Eating out was very reasonable. Until 1991 Estonia was behind the iron curtain but now enjoys independence. Walking around the city, one could almost feel the transformation taking place to a modern European and independent capital.
Helsinki is relatively modern. In 1816 Tsar Alexander commissioned architect Carl Ludwig Engel to rebuild the city. It is laid out in a grid system with wide attractive streets and grand buildings in a Georgian and Victorian style. It now has an efficient yet simple tram, bus and metro transport system. There are several islands just off the coast, and we had a tour party on one of them where we were joined by the Eviva women's choir of Helsinki.
Tampere is 125 miles north of Helsinki and a 1½ hour train journey away, much of the journey spent travelling through beautiful Finnish countryside of birch forests and lakes. After the evening concert there, it was still as light as daytime; darkness only falls in May from about 11pm.

Alison Boggs believes that government should intrude into our lives as little as possible. She believes that government should be fiscally conservative. And, above all, government should respect the sacred rights granted to us in our Constitution. Alison believes she can make positive change right here in our local community as the Union County Prosecutor.
What a Prosecutor's Office should be
Alison believes that any County Prosecutor's Office should be a place where fresh, new attorneys cut their teeth by getting real-world experience in a courtroom. She believes that it's a place to mentor new attorneys and help them get the experience they need to move on to higher-paying positions at established law firms should they choose to do so. What a Prosecutor's Office should not be is a place where attorneys are paid at any level above what is needed to support the County's needs. A County attorney shouldn't have a private practice while collecting a full-time level salary from the County. Alison will pay her staff an appropriate salary based on experience and stay in line with County needs.
Doing the right thing
Alison will bring back the efficiency enjoyed by the office during her previous tenure. She commits to seeking fair, honest indictments—making tough calls—and, when necessary, to reject cases until they're properly prepared. She absolutely refuses to seek felony convictions when a misdemeanor is more appropriate. Having a higher felony conviction record doesn't necessarily equate to a better job or a safer community. Indeed, it could mean sacrificing sacred Constitutional rights, including protecting the innocent from government. Alison will protect our community without placing excess burdens on the taxpayers.
Establish a Diversion program
Alison will establish a diversion program, where appropriate, to handle first-time non-violent felony offenders in which punishment could include probation, community service, fines, restitution, rehab etc., instead of prison time. If the offender cooperates and shows progress, charges may eventually be dismissed.
For example: Pete, a father of two, was unexpectedly laid-off from his job. He used $2,000 of Cub Scout funds, of which he's the treasurer, to pay household bills. He finds another job and begins to repay the money, but not before the Cub Scouts discover the missing funds. Pete is ashamed of what he did and immediately repays the balance of the amount he owes. Pete has no prior criminal charges and hasn't been any trouble since. Pete may be a good candidate for a diversion program allowing him a second chance to make up for his mistake and the possibility to avoid a felony charge which would impact his ability to provide for his family.
Fiscally conservative
As the former Union County Prosecutor, Alison kept her budget in line with what commissioners asked elected officials to do. Alison gave her staff less than the maximum 3% raise and made up the difference in other ways. Alison expects her staff to work for the County full-time. After all, the County compensates them at a full-time rate, shouldn't they be expected to work full-time just like us? Alison will maintain high-quality representation to Union County without burdening the tax payers.
With that said, during the last seven months of her term, employees left the office because they knew they would not have a job at the beginning of 2005. To keep the efficiency of the office intact, Alison offered the unused salary of those employees to compensate the remaining employees who took on extra work and responsibilities. It made more sense to use the knowledgeable remaining employees than to take the time to hire temporary employees not familiar with the workings of a prosecutor's office or hire workers who would not have a job at the end of the year. The extra monies paid came from her budget that was approved for that year by the Union County Commisioners and she was able to maintain the high level of service her office always provided during the last few months of her term. She never once spent over her alloted budget, and every year returned money to the general fund.
Freedom from political favors
Because Alison is not endorsed by any organization or political party, she is free to do the job we elect her to do, represent the people of Union County, free of favors or special interest groups.
What Alison Boggs stands for
- Doing what's right
- Fiscal responsiblity
- Being free of political favors
Elect Alison Boggs for Union County Prosecutor. She'll keep costs in line and do what's right for Union County.

Robert Parker: The NV Brut Premier is a gorgeous wine that stands head and shoulders above the vast majority of wines in its price range. Apparently, it is quite possible to make great Champagne that doesnt cost a small fortune. Ripe pears, smoke, spices, dried flowers and herbs are some of the many nuances that emerge from the glass. The Brut Premier shows lovely mid-palate depth and fabulous overall balance.
Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points - This Roederer non-vintage seems to be getting drier, bringing out more of the green fruits and less creamy character. It works well here because the wine has some bottle age, giving a beautifully balanced wine that has great class and elegance.
Stephen Tanzer: 90 Points - Bright yellow with a strong mousse. Fresh lemon and lime zest on the nose, plus a hint of white pepper adding energy. Tightly wound and focused, with energetic citrus and orchard fruit flavors underscored by dusty minerals. Nicely balanced and pure, with very good finishing citric bite and persistence. This leads more with finesse than with power today, which suits me fine.
*Save 10% when you buy 12 or more bottles of wine.
750ML only, excluding items at the state minimum price.
