The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

I read about this in "Whole Dog Journal". I then tried it and found it really helped my dog alot. We had tried Metacam and it really drug her down physically and mentally. In searching for alternatives I discovered this and it is a great help. She has a better attitude, no nasty side effects and still has some stiffness that I treat with Homeopet Joint Stress and these seem to do the trick for her.
my 1 yr. old Boxer has hip dyplasia and was only using 1 rear leg, I was giving Glyco-FlexII and MSM with not much help for her. I started Dog Gone Pain and within 2 weeks she was using both rear legs and playing and running, I still monitor her play time so she doesn't overdo things but her future looks much brighter now. She will stay on these for the rest of her life.
Good but expensive..
Posted by mahajek on Aug 12, 2016
Very good product, but the price is very high - quality is great as well as the ingredients but value is very bad (maybe if you have small dogs it's ok), I have two large dogs, so I need like 3 bottles of this per month which is really too much money..there are similar good products with half the price. If you like, check my other reviews!
Very nice

Scooter our beagle mix (45lbs) was out playing in the backyard when we heard a terrible yelp. He began limping. I had some joint repair pills I gave him while I had ordered the DGP. I read several reviews and purchased these. This all took place in a week's time. I gave him 1 tablet 2x's a day then advanced the level to 2-2x's a day. In the meantime Scooter had hurt his paw and it was time for his heart worm SNAP test so we went in to the vet. As it turned out even through with the DGP there was improvement with the limp in his rear leg, we were told Scooter possible has a ruptured CCL (equivalent of an ACL in humans). He is having surgery tomorrow on his knee/leg. I asked the vet about the DGP and he approved the use of it and will continue on it. Finally a good product that seems to work and Scoots doesn't mind the taste. Thanks Iherb for a fast devlivery!
New "leash" on life!

My 11 yr old Plott Hound has seen better days. We also have a little Terrier that she used to love to play with but her get-up-and-go has gone-up-and-went. She growls every time the Terrier comes near her. Our old girl has been on DGP for about 3 months now and, WOW, she is a brand new dog! She gets up without pain or a limp (albeit still slowly), she seems much happier and alert! For several months there, she was sulking on her dog bed and just seemed irritated. This stuff is incredible, and expensive, especially when I'm giving her 3 tablets per day, a bottle only lasts 20 days. But so worth it to see her pain-free and happy and healthy!
It works!

How Did Mother's Day Begin?
The driving force behind Mother's Day was Anna Jarvis, who organized observances in Grafton, W.Va., and Philadelphia on May 10, 1908. As the annual celebration became popular around the country, Jarvis asked members of Congress to set aside a day to honor mothers. She finally succeeded in 1914, when Congress designated the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day.

A central Ohioan didn't have to go far to punch her ticket to the London Olympic Games.
Columbus resident and super-heavyweight Holley Mangold snatched, cleaned and jerked her way onto the U.S. Olympic weightlifting team yesterday in the closing hours of the Arnold Sports Festival.
Mangold, one of 15 qualifiers for the U.S. Olympic Trials, finished second to fellow heavyweight Sarah Robles of Mesa, Ariz., and earned one of two available spots on the U.S. Olympic team.
Robles and Mangold lifted a total of 258 (567.6 pounds) and 255 kilograms (561 pounds), respectively. They had the highest qualifying standard of the 15 competitors and earned their spots based on their projected ability to win a medal in London.
Mangold, who stands 5 feet 8 and weighed in at 354 pounds yesterday, long has had Olympic dreams. She aspired to be a diver or gymnast.
"I've always wanted to be an Olympic athlete but I always thought I was going to do it in diving," said Mangold, a native of Centerville and former high-school football player.
"My body just didn't work out for that one. I had to go with a different sport, I guess."
Mangold's coach, Mark Cannella of the Columbus Weightlifting Club, said Mangold improved her lifts by 35 kilograms (77 pounds) in the year she has been working with him.
"She's gone from dark horse to Olympian," Cannella said.
"She has improved incredibly in big competitions. This was no different. She was money when she needed to be. That's the heart of a champion."
Other coaches consumed themselves with Miyagi-like rubdowns and motivational thigh slaps before their lifters in lower weight classes approached the platform.
But the heavyweights — Robles, Mangold and Chioma Amaechi — were the star attractions. They entered the contest ranked first, second and fifth in the U.S.
With older brother, former Buckeye and current NFL center Nick and several other family members looking on, Mangold, 22, boosted 105 (231 pounds) and 110 kilograms (242) with ease on her first two attempts in the snatch but couldn't complete her try at 115 (253).
She lifted 145 kilograms (319 pounds) on her third and final attempt in the clean and jerk.
Robles, after requesting some weight changes in a bit of gamesmanship, completed snatches of 110 (242 pounds) and 114 kilograms (250.8).
She was unable to cleanly finish her attempt at 117 (257.4) but hoisted 144 (316.8) in the clean and jerk.
The women's Olympic trials drew a capacity crowd in the Greater Columbus Convention Center.
The lifts were held on a no-frills, plywood stage, but there was no mistaking what was at stake.
Giant banners hanging from a backdrop proclaimed the event the last stop on the "Road To London."
"I've come up very quickly," Mangold said. "Just in the last year, I've made so much progress. I really can't believe it."

Buried treasure/hidden gems
April 23, 2014 —
OK, I'm just gonna 'fess up right off the bat. With Passover in full swing and Easter springing up everywhere I looked, I wasn't really in the mood to do much last weekend, other than play hooky, soak up some much needed rays and kick back. It seemed like the perfect time to rest up and conserve energy for the good times are about to seriously roll through come "high season" in the Upper Delaware River Valley, so I called the office claiming to be "sick" and begged off making an appearance. Oh, I was "sick" all right—sick of working, sick of driving, sick of typing… even (believe it or not) sick of talking.
"You can run, but you can't hide" I muttered to the dog. Now, normally I'd try to get to the bottom of a phrase like that—who coined it or where it originated, etc., but (being sick of looking things up) I shrugged the impulse off and went for a walk.
Only a week or two ago, clear passage to my beloved Crystal Lake was impossible, what with leftover snow, icy patches and potholes the size of my truck that kept all but the diehards at bay, either coercing them to park off-road and hike their way in, or giving them no choice but to be patient (which as some of you may know, is not my strong suit.) But undeterred, I decided to drive on in, the perfect illustration of "You can't fix stupid." I plowed through the brambles and ravines, understanding that once committed, I had to see it through. And when I did make it down to the lake, I found it still almost frozen over and the beavers busily damming up what little running water there was.
With 10 days of warmer temps behind us, I headed out once again prepared for the worst, hoping for the best. Glorious doesn't even begin to describe this hidden gem, a 28 acre preserve tucked away in the mountains overlooking Roscoe, NY, and truth be told, I'm not all that anxious to give away much more than that. If folks want to find this gorgeous lake badly enough, they can do some research on their own. As for the locals, we know where it is—when berry season peaks and what days are best to camp out, if you want the place to yourself. Is there buried treasure at the lake? I did find ramps springing up out of the earth and understand that these leek-like greens are considered a treasure by foodies in these parts. They're often hard to find and from what I've learned, have a brief window of harvest opportunity. Want in on the secret cache? Give me a call.

Summer beauty rules to break today
Summer Vacation1 of 8
By Melissa Magsaysay
Summer is your chance to change up your usual time-consuming beauty routines. Here's Glo's guide to tweaking the rules while giving your look a fresh twist.
Don a Smoky Eye2 of 8
Why It's OK to Break It: "A smoky eye doesn't have to mean black eye shadow all over the top lid," says makeup artist Nico Guilis. "Do the Return to the Blue Lagoon look and run a black or colored pencil over the waterline and lash line for a sultry look."
Must-Know: Avoid using a dry eye shadow, as Guilis warns, "It will smudge. Opt for black kohl pencils or liquid liners. "Eyeliner can do the smoky trick on its own," she says.
SHOP NOW: Flower Easy on the Eyes Longwear Eyeliner in Black, $6
Set Your Makeup3 of 8
Why It's OK to Break It: "Using the heavier foundation you normally use is totally OK in summer," says Guilis. She adds that not everyone's skin does well with light coverage and that wearing a heavier foundation with SPF in it may even keep sunburn at bay.
Must-Know: Streaky or sweaty foundation is bad no matter the time of year. Spritz on a hydrating spray: It can set the foundation on the skin and cool you down.
SHOP NOW: Urban Decay Cosmetics Chill Makeup Setting Spray, $29
Choose a Colorful Lip4 of 8
Why It's OK To Break It: "Actually, 1950s retro chic is coming back strong in makeup!" Says Guilis. "So a matte lip with a strong pop of color is in style and looks lovely with a tan face."
Must-Know: Go for bright summer colors like a Brigitte Bardot–inspired frothy pink. This pencil is part matte, part gloss, so it's hydrating with an old-Hollywood effect.
SHOP NOW: Bite Beauty High Pigment Matte Pencil, $24
Spritz on Tanning Oil5 of 8
Why It's OK to Break It: As long as your oil packs a high-SPF punch, it's an absolutely fine way to prep yourself for a day in the sun—and can add a pretty sheen to your skin. Just make sure to apply (and reapply) per product instructions.
Must-Know: This new non-greasy oil provides long-lasting full-spectrum protection as well as skin-enhancing ingredients like vitamin E and grape-seed oil.
SHOP NOW: L'Oréal Sublime Sun Sheer Protect Sunscreen Oil Spray, SPF 50+, $8
Go for a Dip6 of 8
Why It's OK to Break It: With the right care, your lightened locks will be perfectly fine after a dip.
Must-Know: Avoid waiting too long to rinse chlorine out of your hair. Using a shampoo specifically designed to keep blond hair the proper shade will help preserve color and prevent chemical reactions.
SHOP NOW: Malibu C Swimmers Water Action Shampoo, $7
Go Nude7 of 8
Why It's OK to Break It: Sure, bright summery polish colors are fun to swipe onto toes especially in sandal weather, but soft, moisturized feet are really all that count—and nude nails have become a runway staple.
Must-Know: Say no to cracked heels and dry flaky feet. Make your feet are baby-soft with a balm that heals cracked heels, softens cuticles and has an anti-fungal component for those barefoot days at the beach.
SHOP NOW: Kerstin Florain FUB Foot Balm, $36
Show Some Leg8 of 8
Why It's OK to Break It: The tanned look is not for everyone and, besides, most people don't have time to lay out (or hit the spray-tan salon) to get that bronze base tan before slipping into a pair of shorts or a miniskirt.
Must-Know: Make sure you protect your pale pins with the proper level of sunblock. Also, giving them a subtle glow will help even out skin tone and make them appear slimmer and longer.

Landscape legacy
March 27, 2013 —
Across America, growing numbers of people are becoming aware of the costs and impacts associated with meeting our country's energy needs through continuing dependence on fossil fuels. In Pennsylvania, we need look no farther than the anthracite coal region of Northeast Pennsylvania to see evidence of the lasting legacy of coal extraction.
In addition to the economic devastation that has followed the collapse of that industry, its environmental impacts are still stunningly visible today. Acid mine drainage continues to redden regional waterways, while dark culm banks bearing little vegetation frame the valleys and dust-stained homes below. These discarded landscapes are further impacted by a profound amount of litter that prevails not only along rural back roads, but throughout the struggling towns.
If there is anything to be learned from the Keystone State as the people of the Upper Delaware River region make decisions about their energy future, it is that the actions we take now are creating our legacy.

quote:Originally posted by hfwarner3
Congrads on the twins!
If it was me, I would start with the "help me to help you" approach. I would call the doctor RIGHT NOW and have them paged. When they call you back, I would say, "I know that you are the doctor, not me, but I am confused and scared. My wife is NOT doing well and to me just appears to be getting worse by the day. Her BP just keeps going up. You have found protein in her urine. He ankles are the size of grapefruits. She is throwing up repeatedly and her headache will not go away. This sounds like pre-eclampsia but I am not the doctor, so why do you think it is NOT pre-eclampsia?"
You might be surprised at the answer you get. If that does not start the doctor in the right direction, you can follow-up with, "Well, even if this is not pre-eclampsia, the symptoms alone are scaring the * out of me and making me VERY nervous. I don't feel that I can provide the level of constant care that she needs now. At what point do we talk about getting her in the hospital?"
This will get you a trip to the hospital to "get checked out" and they will likely try to send her home again, so you will have to go through this same routine AGAIN at the hospital until her doctor (or the on-call doctor) decides that the risk of a malpractice suit is greater than the flack they will get from the insurance company for admitting her.
Sorry if this sounds cynical, but a pro-active OB dealing with a mother who is almost 36 weeks with twins, with a heart condition, and with all these symptoms would have induced by now (in my non-expert, non-medical, but been through this same thing 5 times myself opinion).

News Detail
Faculty Participate in Brain Game
For the second year, a group of St. John Fisher College faculty members participated in an annual trivia contest called "The Brain Game," a fundraiser for Literacy Volunteers of Rochester. The event took place on October 11 at the Radisson Hotel in Rochester.
The Brain Game fundraiser takes place every fall, with teams of attorneys, accountants, financial planners, and employees from other local companies who compete for the championship. Contestants answer questions about art, geography, local history, science, and music. The game includes "lifelines" that contestants can use with the audience for help.
The Fisher team included Dr. Angela Amoia, Assistant Professor of Chemistry; Dr. Dougie Bicket, Associate Professor of Communication/Journalism; Dr. Cara Welch, Assistant Professor of Modern Languages; Dr. Jeff Liles, Associate Professor of Education; Dr. Lisa Jadwin, Professor of English; and Dr. Jon Holz, Visiting Assistant Professor of Biology. The team advanced to the second round, and answered a range of questions from science to Rochester history, including one question about Rochester furniture maker Wendell Castle.

text: Help! I am breastfeeding my 22 month old, just before naps and bedtimes. I finally resumed menstruation 2 months ago (after night weaning). I was told to expect an anovulatory phase the first month, but during my last cycle based on my BBT I don't think I ovulated. Is this even possible, and does it have to do with breastfeeding? We are TTC and I am not quite ready to wean yet, but am afraid I may have to if this continues. Has anyone else experienced this? I called my OBGYN, and they basically said they can't do anything until my son is completely weaned.

In some ways this isn't going to change what I do for PHP. Like most people in IBM who contribute to open source projects the fact that IBM was paying me to do it was just lucky for me - the fact that they aren't right now doesn't change my commitment to open source development and to testing the PHP implementation. So, I hope to continue to write PHP tests and fit in 40 hours course work and a few exams around it - how hard can it be?
It's also pretty nice that I can see what the team that used to fund my PHP work are up to - here's a link to Jerry Cuomo's blog which explains how he sees PHP fitting in with Project Zero.

text: Up until about a week ago, my DS would not nurse to sleep, ever. Now he does it all the time! I'm totally okay with that, but he continues to nurse while he is asleep and every once in a while I will let down again and it wakes him up, and he doesn't get into a good sleep. Is there anything I should do about it? Or just let him eat sleep eat sleep like that. He mostly does it in the early afternoon time.

Behind the Screens with Joshua Maloni
Leonard Nimoy outright lied to me.
And I couldn't be happier.
Prior to his 2010 appearance as William Bell on "Fringe," the "Star Trek" star, in no uncertain terms, said he was retiring from acting. He would concentrate on his photography and just enjoy life.
But since then, he has done voiceover work on "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" and "The Big Bang Theory." He appeared as a cartoon Bell in another episode of "Fringe" and has reappeared in the flesh for the show's two-part season finale (concluding tonight at 9 p.m. on FOX).
So what gives?
"I'm a sucker for a good role," Nimoy said with a chuckle. "And J.J. Abrams, the executive producer of the show, is a friend of mine. He calls. I take his call. The writers and producers - Joel Wyman, Jeff Pinkner - and the cast, they're a wonderful bunch of people and I enjoy being there. When they called and asked me if I would do it, it was pretty easy to convince me that there was an interesting challenge in the character and a very wonderful company to work with."
"Fringe" fans (myself, included) are thrilled to see Nimoy back in the fold. The 81-year-old actor said he was excited about the prospect of returning to the series.
"It's not just the role of William Bell. It's the show," Nimoy said. "I think 'Fringe' is a wildly imaginative show. The writers and the creators of the show, the producers, are very bright and very theatrical. All the characters are fleshed out wonderfully and the chemistry amongst the cast is terrific. I wanted to be part of this project. I enjoy the project."
Nimoy's return to "Fringe" comes at an interesting point in the show's history. Like his own television show, "Star Trek," "Fringe" is adored by critics and sci-fi fans, but somewhat ratings challenged.
The show was recently renewed for a 13-episode final season.
Nimoy isn't sure why "Fringe" has failed to capture viewers en masse, but he appreciates the dedication shown by "Fringe" fans.
"If I could answer that question, I think the networks would all be on me for explanations of what to do about their schedules," he said. "I'm not an authority on ratings and how these things happen. You're absolutely right in the comparison to 'Star Trek.' We did very poorly in the ratings, but eventually the show started to become more and more popular, until it became a news story where stations were carrying the show at various hours and various time and sometimes in marathons on weekends and 6 p.m. every night in syndication.
"The same thing could happen with 'Fringe.' I can tell you that when 'Star Trek' was put on a Friday night, which is a date night, not a good night for a show like this, it did very, very poorly. 'Fringe' has the same kind of audience: A very intense audience, a small audience, but very intense and very committed. I think it's commendable that the people at FOX decided to honor that commitment.
"Now I understand that the show does particularly well in DVR recordings, and I don't know how that works or how they measure that. What that means is that people who are out on Friday nights record the show and watch it some other time. That's a sign of the commitment to the show."
Nimoy has left the door open to return for "Fringe's" fifth and final season.
"I'm sure that we will be having conversations about that before too long," he said. "I haven't heard anything new about William Bell or the show, except that it has been picked up for 13 episodes, which I think is wonderful."
"I'm excited about the show," Nimoy said. "I'm proud to be connected with 'Fringe.' I think it's an intelligent and imaginative and theatrical show. I told the company when I finished shooting on this particular episode a few weeks ago, I said, 'You are superior company. I have never worked with a better company in my entire 60-year career.' I thanked them all for being who they are and doing what they are, and told them how proud I was to be a part of it.
"I'm looking forward to (Friday) night myself. I have not seen the show put together. I think it's going to be exciting for everybody."
"Fringe" airs Friday at 9 p.m. on FOX. Follow the show on Twitter: @FRINGEonFOX.

Spyware is designed to collect and use information about anyone using the computer it is installed on. It watches what sites you visit and where you shop on the Internet in order to create a marketing profile. It is usually combined (called: bundled) w/ another program that you have downloaded. Commonname.com (CN) is considered a piece of spyware. It takes everything you type while you are using the browser and sends it to their website server.
Credit Card Info:
For those who are concerned about internet security, you should be aware that some spyware is sending everything you type in the most easily readable form called: clear text! Some spyware can even capture your credit card information and that information gets stored on their server. If that isn't bad enough, anyone between your computer and them can also read and capture your personal information.
Slow Performance:
If you're not concerned about security, let's talk about performance. If the web pages you and a million other people are browsing has to go through this one server (Commonname.com for example), it may slow down the performance of your PC. It can come from the installation of several programs; the most popular are KaZaA, and iMesh.
KaZaA and iMesh:
Why do you think their programs are free? It always comes back to money! CN will resell the information it gets from you, to someone else. Here's a short list of other programs w/ spyware-KaZaA, Limewire, Audiogalaxy, Imesh, Morpheus, Xolox, Grokster
When you go to a site that requires you to register in order to use their service these can potentially be spyware sites. Sometimes these types of websites/programs don't show on a "spyware" list because they notified you via the policy statement that it's going to be collecting information. You agreed to this when you registered. If you look closely to the disclaimers and registration information they will include wording such as, "...These applications may deliver advertisements, collect information, overlay content or graphics...or modify your system settings." This is a quote from the download area of the KaZaA website. For searching for Internet we recommend a site like Google.com for limiting your spyware exposure.
Ad-Aware Installed:
We recently installed a program called Ad-aware on the computers in the labs that has helped us to remove spyware from the computers. There are hundreds of different types of spyware, some MUCH worse that Commonname.com. Ad-aware is helping us to keep the student PCs clean.
Computing Services is now blocking the CN site, in the student labs and on all employee PCs, as of Wednesday October 23rd. If you have a problem with a machine, related to CN, spyware or anything else, please feel free to give a call at x7741.
Spyware Removal and Spyware Informative Websites
Ad-aware - a spyware removal tool:
Ad-aware is a totally free program which scans your memory, registry, and disk drives for known adware and spyware. You can also choose to have Ad-aware remove any that it finds. I strongly suggest you download and use it regularly. You may be surprised at the nasties it finds. ASU currently has the licensing to load Ad-aware on all our PCs. It can be downloaded at: www.lavasoftusa.com or call Computing Services at x7741 for assistance.
Spybot - a spyware removal tool
Works like Ad-aware and is also free. Can be downloaded from their website at: http://security.kolla.de/
Windows Update:
It's also helpful to keep your machine up to date. To update -select "Windows Update" in your Internet Explorer browser.
Spychecker (spychecker.com):
Spychecker maintains a database of known spyware. You can search from the site or use their small program to see if a program you want to download contains spyware. They update the database daily. (Windows) . SpywareInfo (spychecker.com) SpywareInfo has a large array of resources to help you keep your computer free of spyware and most of them are free.
From ASU
Some spyware prevention software is from us. Please call x7741.
KaZaA Lite, RollingStone.com, Amazon.com; MP3.com, Shareaza, Blubster, Farmclub.com, LiquidAudio.com.

Getting a good bat isn't just about buying a nice model, it's also about how you look after it.
Use raw linseed oil or special bat oil. Apply a small amount of oil (about size of a 50p/inch in diameter) to the face of the bat and then work it in to the rest of the blade, edges, toe and back. But do not oil the splice area as this may soften the glue.
Keep the bat horizontal on its back for 24 hours. This will allow the oil to soak in. When it is dry remove any oil that hasn't soaked in – use fine sandpaper or scrape lightly with a sharp blade.
Repeat the process, but do not oil the back again. The bat is then ready for knocking-in and soon it'll be ready for its first game of cricket!
Do not over-oil. More bats are spoilt by over-oiling than by under-oiling. Over-oiling adds weight to the bat, deadens it and can even cause wood rot. Over-oiled bats take longer to be repaired, as they have to be dried out first.
Non-oil, coated or uncovered bats should not be oiled.
It's important to look after your equipment in sport, and knocking your cricket bat in is key. This is best done with a purpose-made bat mallet – either ball-on-handle or smooth wooden mallet.
The aim of knocking-in is to continue a process which began at the bat factory when the blade was pressed between heavy steel rollers; namely to compress the soft willow so that it better stands up to the impact of the smaller, harder ball.
There are no rules to how long you should knock-in your bat. Like walnut trees "the more you beat'em the better they bees". However, make sure you give the edges including the toe edge a good going over.
Then play the bat in gently in the nets. Bat defensively, concentrate on getting the ball in the middle of the bat, do not 'reach' for the ball outside the off stump and don't swing hard across the line.

Amber Hamilton, the most feared player in our noon-time hoops group, is director of ARISE (Advocating, Reassuring, Informing, Supporting, Empowering) Sexual Assault Services.
ARISE provides medical, advocacy and counseling services in Roosevelt, Curry, Quay, DeBaca, Harding and Lea counties.
"One in four women and one in six men will experience sexual violence at sometime," says Amber.
"Sexual assault is not about attire or physical attributes. Perpetrators seek out victims that they can over-power and control."
This often includes incest.
Local victims of sexual assault have ranged from six months to over 90.
Out of hundreds of cases in her five-plus years with ARISE, only two were fabricated.
"Victims of sexual assault suffer one of the most personal, violent crimes a person can survive.
"A sexual assault takes the most private and precious thing from a human being without permission," says Amber. "It is devastating."
The job also takes a toll on staff and volunteers.
"As a team we support each other. It is imperative to keep staff and volunteers healthy in this difficult work.
"It's easy to take it home with you, but that's not fair to yourself or your family. We must let go and leave work at work."
To report an assault or volunteer for upcoming training sessions, contact Amber at 575-226-4665 or email@example.com.

CrazyforBargains.com offers sleepwear for the whole family- functional, yes, but FUN, OH yes! I love their selection- especially since the "fun" stuff is not just for kids.
I have to tell you that I'm still stunned at the turnaround on this. CrazyforBargains.com asked if I'd work with them and 2 days later, the pajamas are hanging on the line to dry so the kids can wear them to bed.
They sent us matching pajamas Laura Dare Little Dot Strappy Pajamas for my girls, which are so simple and sweet and they really just adore (I think its the silky feel to the fabric)- and for me, it brings back what my pajamas were like as a kid. I love them. The baby keeps rubbing her belly in them, she's not used to the silky feel of the fabric I guess. My son got some Superman pajamas which he promptly removed after this photo- too HOT mom!! (It's 77 as I type this and we haven't put any A/C units in upstairs). He's super excited though, especially because his new jamas have a CAPE. This is big stuff for the almost 4 year old crowd.

WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. Department of Energy Secretary Steven Chu today announced that the Department of Energy is providing more than $304 million in Recovery Act funding to expand weatherization assistance programs in Georgia, Illinois and New York. These funds, along with additional funds to be disbursed after the states meet certain Recovery Act milestones, will help these states achieve their goal of weatherizing more than 85,000 homes, lowering energy costs for low-income families that need it, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and creating green jobs across the country.
Georgia, Illinois and New York will receive 40 percent of their total weatherization funding authorized under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act today. This installment adds to the initial 10 percent of the states' funding allocations that were awarded previously for training and ramp-up activities. Under the Recovery Act, the states may spend up to 20 percent of the funds to hire and train workers.
"These awards demonstrate the Obama Administration's strong commitment to moving quickly as part of the country's economic recovery -- creating jobs and doing important work for the American people -- while ensuring that taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly," said Secretary Chu. "Today's investments will save money for hard working families, reduce pollution, strengthen local economies, and help move America toward a clean energy future."
DOE's Weatherization Assistance Program will be available to families making up to 200 percent of the federal poverty level - or about $44,000 a year for a family of four. Weatherization projects allow low-income families to save money by making their homes more energy efficient, which results in average savings of 32 percent for heating bills and savings of hundreds of dollars per year on overall energy bills. States will spend an average of $6,500 to weatherize each home.
The funding allocations for the Weatherization Assistance Program follow a stage-gate process: on March 12 funding allocations by state were announced and the initial 10 percent of total funding was available to states and territories to support planning and ramp-up activities; comprehensive state applications were due on May 12; following a DOE reviews for each state, 40 percent allocations are awarded; and the remaining 50% of funds will be released when states meet reporting, oversight, and accountability milestones required by the Recovery Act.
The Recovery Act includes a strong commitment to oversight and accountability, while emphasizing the necessity of rapidly awarding funds to help create new jobs and stimulate local economies.
The three states receiving funds today submitted aggressive and innovative plans to expand their weatherization programs:
GEORGIA - $49,902,524 awarded today
Georgia will use its Recovery Act funds to weatherize more than 13,600 homes over the next three years. The Georgia Environmental Facilities Authority, which manages the weatherization program in the state, intends to leverage Recovery Act funds in partnership with the Georgia Power Company to weatherize 500 additional homes. The state is giving priority to weatherizing homes occupied by elderly residents and elderly residents with disabilities, and expects at least half of all weatherized homes will go to these high-need residents.
After demonstrating successful implementation of its plan, the state will receive an additional $62 million, for a total of nearly $125 million.
ILLINOIS - $97,010,647 awarded today
Illinois will use its Recovery Act funding to weatherize nearly 27,000 homes over the next three years, reducing energy consumption and our dependence on fossil fuels, while creating jobs locally. The funding will help expand the Illinois Home Weatherization Assistance Program, which is administered by the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO). The state will then provide subgrants to 35 existing local agencies with demonstrated effectiveness in implementing energy audits and home weatherization programs. Every housing unit that receives weatherization assistance will also receive a final inspection to ensure that the work was completed properly. In addition, DCEO will conduct random checks on subgrantee assessments and final inspections.
Under the Illinois plan, each of the 35 local subgrantees will receive funding to hire and train new employees or contractors. DCEO is also using Recovery Act funding to add 12 rounds to their existing training and certification program, and is working with the Illinois Community College Board to set up mandatory contractor training and certification. These efforts will ensure the necessary workforce to carry out weatherization assistance throughout Illinois.
After demonstrating successful implementation of its plan, the state will receive over $121 million in additional funding, for a total of more than $242.5 million.
NEW YORK - $157,874,605 awarded today
New York will use its Recovery Act funding to weatherize more than 45,000 homes over the next three years. The state Department of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR) intends to maximize state Recovery Act funding by coordinating its weatherization program with other state agencies to improve benefits for low-income clients. Subgrantees in the state are encouraged to access other federal and state housing funds that can be used along with weatherization funds to provide comprehensive weatherization services, as well as additional repair and rehabilitation work. The state is also encouraging weatherization assistance services to be combined with non-federal sources, such as utilities, the American Red Cross, and others, to provide more complete energy-related services to low-income clients.
After demonstrating successful implementation of its plan, the state will receive an additional $197 million, for a total of more than $394 million.

Have you ever faked a restroom trip to check your email? Slept with your laptop? Or become so overwhelmed that you just unplugged from it all? In this funny, eye-opening, and inspiring film, Director Tiffany Shlain takes audiences on an exhilarating roller-coaster ride to discover what it means to be connected in the 21st century. From founding The Webby Awards to being a passionate advocate for The National Day of Unplugging, Shlain's love/hate relationship with technology serves as the springboard for a thrilling exploration of modern life…and our interconnected future. Equal parts documentary and memoir, the film unfolds during a year in which technology and science literally become a matter of life and death for the director. As Shlain's father battles brain cancer and she confronts a high-risk pregnancy, her very understanding of connection is challenged. Using a brilliant mix of animation, archival footage, and home movies, Shlain reveals the surprising ties that link us not only to the people we love but also to the world at large. A personal film with universal relevance, "Connected" explores how, after centuries of declaring our independence, it may be time for us to declare our interdependence instead.
Join us for a screening of this award-winning film, followed by a Q and A with the filmmaker, Tiffany Shlain. The US State Department has selected CONNECTED as one of the films to represent America at embassies around the world as part of their American Filmmaker Showcase. more info here:
Also, Tiffany will be heading to New York next week to receive "The Disruptive Innovation Award" from the Tribeca Film Festival more info here:

May 2010
When the harmonica is heard in jazz, it is most often the 12-tone chromatic harmonica, not the diatonic "blues harp," which is associated more with Bob Dylan and Chicago blues. Howard Levy, however, has almost single-handedly developed the full jazz potential of the diatonic harmonica. His harp can be heard with the original version of Béla Fleck's Flecktones and with Paquito D'Rivera and Kurt Elling, as well as on a host of pop recordings by artists as varied as Steely Dan and Dolly Parton.
But this, happily, is by no means only an album of diatonic jazz harmonica; it is instead a marvelous piano-trio album featuring Levy's harmonica. And the pianist is none other than Levy, who overdubs his harmonica on all but one of the seven trio/quartet tracks. The only two tracks that aren't Levy compositions are on-the-spot improvisations by the trio, sans piano, with harmonica, Larry Gray's acoustic bass and Ernie Adams' drums: "Flunky Jazz" gives us Levy's bluesiest, train-whistle folk/blues harp style over a rolling brushes rhythm; "Triosity" features a long rubato prelude segueing into bop riffs and ending in a strolling swing finale.
For the most part, Levy avoids obvious blues-harp gestures, playing more like a jazz saxophonist than a bluesman and leaning toward bop strategies even on "Howard's F-sharp Blues." Although he cites McCoy Tyner and Herbie Hancock as influences, Levy the pianist has a sunnier, more ebullient style than either, enlivened by an unfailing upward momentum, even on the relatively slow ballad "Floating." The trio interplay is first-rate throughout, as are the arrangements—the best being last: the eight-minute-plus mini-suite from which the album is titled. The track's trajectory is simply captivating.

San Bernardino County Sheriff's investigators found charred human remains within the ashes of the torched cabin where fugitive former police officer Christopher Dorner was barricaded.
Cindy Bachman, a spokeswoman for the lead agency in the case, the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department, said authorities will work to identify the remains.
Earlier, Bachman tried to counter widespread reports that a body believed to be Dorner had been recovered from the cabin.
"They believe that there is a body in there, but it is not safe to go inside," she told reporters. She added that officials believed there was still live ammunition in the cabin, which was still smoldering.
CNN and other media quoted numerous sources earlier in the evening as saying authorities had removed a body from the rubble of the fire and identified it as Dorner.
The cabin caught fire after police detonated smoke devices inside the cabin, the source said.
Aerial images showed heavy smoke and flames coming from a structure. The cabin continued to burn for hours after the fire started.
One of the two sheriff's deputies wounded earlier Tuesday in the shootout earlier with the suspect died, San Bernardino County Sheriff John McMahon told reporters at California's Loma Linda University Medical Center. The other deputy was in surgery "but he should be fine," McMahon said.
The wounded officers were taken to the Loma Linda facility after shots were exchanged with a man at a police roadblock near Big Bear Lake, the sheriff's office said earlier in a statement.
The day's confrontations began when a California Fish and Wildlife officer was driving down a highway near Big Bear and he recognized a man fitting the description of Dorner -- target of a massive manhunt since last week -- driving a vehicle in the other direction. The wildlife officer chased the vehicle and the driver opened fire on the officer before abandoning the truck, a statement from the agency said.
The officer's vehicle was hit numerous times, the statement said. While not specifically referring to the officer involved in the shootout, the statement said the agency's officers "are all safe and accounted for."
Cindy Bachman, a spokeswoman for the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department, said the suspect fled into the woods then into the cabin where he fired at the approaching deputies and holed up though the afternoon, still exchanging gunfire with authorities.
Later as the fire burned, with authorities staying back, she said authorities weren't 100% sure the suspect was still in the cabin.
Authorities have been searching for Dorner since he was named as the suspect in the shooting deaths February 3 of the daughter of his police union representative and her fiance. Police also say he killed one officer in Riverside, California, and wounded two others last Thursday.
The violent spree, authorities say, was part of Dorner's campaign of vigilante justice for what he believes was his unfair termination.
Los Angeles police spokesman Lt. Andy Neiman said Tuesday that the department had received more than 1,000 tips on Dorner's whereabouts. Some of the calls have come from Dorner's acquaintances or people who think they have spotted the fugitive.
The pace of tips being given to investigators increased by 400% after the city of Los Angeles put up a $1 million reward on Sunday for information leading to Dorner's arrest and conviction, Neiman said.
The search for the 270-pound, 6-foot Dorner has focused on the Big Bear Lake area, where authorities say his burning truck was discovered last week.
Over the past two weeks, the search, considered one of the largest in the history of Southern California, has taken authorities from Orange County to the border of Mexico and from Los Angeles to Big Bear Lake.
"Big Bear's still where we're looking right now," Neiman said Tuesday. The search area surrounds where Dorner's burning truck was discovered last Thursday .
"Until we can confirm that he's either there or he's not there, this investigation has to stick with what we know and what we know is that we found evidence that he was there," Neiman said.
While the LAPD spokesman told reporters he was "not ready to confirm" that a man seen in security camera video from a Southern California sporting goods store was Dorner, the Los Angeles Times quoted unnamed law enforcement sources saying it was him.
The video, published Monday by the celebrity news website TMZ.com, shows the man carrying what appears to be scuba equipment at the Sports Chalet store in Torrance, California, on February 1, two days before the killings of Monica Quan, the daughter of the police union rep, and her fiancé, Keith Lawrence.
A "no bail" arrest warrant was issued for Dorner after the Riverside County district attorney filed a murder charge Monday against him in the killing of Riverside Police Officer Michael Crain.
"That allows him to be apprehended anywhere within California, out of state or out of the country," District Attorney Paul Zellerbach told reporters Monday.

Roberts Proton Therapy Center
Mummer All-Stars On-Hand to Welcome Milestone for Innovative Cancer Treatment in Philly
The region's only cyclotron will complete its 3,700 mile transatlantic journey from Belgium by arriving with a police escort from the Port Authority of Philadelphia to the Roberts Proton Therapy Center at the University of Pennsylvania, which will comprise a dedicated pediatric program administered by The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.
The cyclotron weighs 220 tons, about the same as a 747 airliner, but is only 18 feet in diameter and 8 feet high. In order for it to be safely transported on paved roads, a special 19-axle, 200-foot long trailer truck was constructed.
The cyclotron's job is to accelerate atoms to near-light speeds to create a healing beam of energy that can then be targeted to kill cancerous/malignant tumors with unprecedented accuracy, without harming nearby healthy tissue or organs.
For the final leg of its journey, the massively heavy, metal accelerator will be greeted by the Mummer All-Stars, marking the occasion that represents a landmark new option for the treatment of cancer in the Philadelphia region.
The cyclotron's energy beam will be directed to five treatment rooms, each over two stories tall, making the Roberts Proton Therapy Center the largest of its kind in the world and the only cancer treatment center to fully integrate conventional radiology treatment and proton beam therapy.
The Proton Therapy Program will begin treating patients in 2009.
The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia will be the first freestanding children's hospital to provide a more advanced and targeted approach to cancer treatment. In the future, 60 to 70 percent of children who receive conventional radiation could benefit from proton therapy.
In addition, Penn has established a new relationship with Walter Reed Army Medical Center, through which proton therapy technology will be available to treat United States military personnel and veterans.

#@&%@*, Brad Lidge!!! #*&@%!!!
uhjypotr5 78n mjhopl0ltrf5po[-0er3w
What you see above is what happens when you actually do this:
There! Just for the record, no foreheads were actually injured during this little experiment.
Now, Brad Lidge, even though I know you're not reading this, I feel I must vent my frustrations with you.
Note to Brad:
Just because the other team's closer blows a save in the top of the ninth, doesn't mean you have to copy him and do the same in the bottom of the ninth! Remember, nobody likes a copycat!
I really don't want to have to decapitate your bobblehead, like Jenn suggested in a recent post.
But Brad, this is now your ninth blown save of the season!! I know it's a bit unrealistic of us to expect perfection two years in a row, but nine is a new career high (or should I say "low") for you.
Please stop it right this instant, or I shall have to resort to drastic measures! Keep in mind, I own a voodoo doll (typographically challenged, but never mind).
You wouldn't want to wake up tomorrow with a nasty case of Hairy Eaps or Importenci, would you?

So Sue, Is Padilla really that much of a headcase? He gets his first start in Colorado in about an hour.
What happened to Lidge this season? He used to be so dominant. Now he's giving Phillies fans fits. Will they replace him or let him work out the problems? (Or maybe just let you use your voodoo doll?)
Julia – I got this one many years ago in New Orleans. It's full of typos, some of which are pretty funny!
Emma – I see this morning that Padilla actually got the win for your guys yesterday. His head can seem to be in another galaxy sometimes.
Jane – I (and every other Phillies fan) would love to know the answer to those questions. For now it seems they will stick with him, as Madson is not a viable option. It will be interesting to see what happens if Brett Myers comes back and pitches well…
I was wondering myself what has happened to Lidge. None of the closers seem to be having that much success.
I made a joke to a friend of mine who owns a sub shop and is from King of Prussia that the Rays should have claimed Wagner on waivers and traded him and Kazmir to the Phillies for Cliff Lee.
He liked the Kaz for Lee split, but I did not know the horror involved with Wagner.
Ledge is like most closer not named Nathan, Hoffman or Rivera. Because he is not a top tier, trained to be a closer guy, he had to learn on the job, and his pressure situations have come in a limited number of years.
Plus the ego involved in that job is that you can do not wrong, where the good ones adjust and get better.
the saps just keep trying to throw it down the middle and scratch their heads when the ball sails out of the park.
Rays Renegade
Jenn – I will be happy to join you in the team-smacking!
Cat – Join the wondering throngs! It's the question of the season around here.
Renegade – Even though Lee had a bad game last night, I'd keep him over Kazmir, as Lee goes much deeper into games. We had Wagner once, and I don't think anyone would be in a hurry to see him come back. As I mentioned in a comment to Julia, Billy lacks a filter between brain and mouth, and is prone to "foot-in-mouth" disease.

Thank you all so much for your responses! I'm feeling so much more positive about this and can definately tell this is where I need to come for support! I'll check out all the links in a bit and get in contact with some local people before baby arrives. I'm actually pretty excited to try this again, but scared - mastitis stinks. I really don't want to go thru it again, but maybe if I'm doing things completely different this time around I can avoid it, or at least not get it as many times!
About the repeat c-sec: I had the choice with ds#2, but was foolish and scared of labor, so I chose a repeat then. Now I regret that soooo much. I asked my dr (whom I trust very much) if there was a chance for a VBAC and he said, "What, do you want your uterus to explode?!" lol We live in Oklahoma, and laws are pretty strict, too - you have to deliver at a "learning" hospital if you want a VBAC. There is only one that is kind of close, and my dr does not deliver there, nor do they have a good record for me to feel confident enough to go. I'm ok with the repeat c-sec, but I am disappointed in myself that 3 years ago I didn't do the research to attempt a VBAC.
Thanks again, everyone for your support and advice - I'll start looking around to see what I should do to prepare for breastfeeding!!!

Playoffs never grow old even when it's cold
I can't believe it. Tomorrow I'll be at Coors Field watching my Colorado Rockies host the Phillies in Game 3 of the Division Series.
They did it. After a confusing/frustrating 2008 season the Rockies are back. Back to hopefully prove to the world 2007 wasn't just a fluke.
This Rockies team is a different playoff team than it was in 2007. This time the Rockies didn't make the post-season on a last minute historic run. The Rockies played solid baseball for most of the last half of this season and thus deserve to be exactly where they are.
I'm loving the fact that this Phillies series is split. Coming back to Coors two games down would have been really tough to overcome. Now it's even, the Rockies are at Coors Field for two and this series could end right here at home.
Onward and upward baby.
Tomorrow's game will probably be the only post-season game I'll be able to attend as the tickets are very expensive. I'm just happy I have the chance to attend, take a sh*t-ton of pictures, and cheer on the best team in baseball.
Guess who'll be with me….Andy from Spring training. Here he's posing with his first ever homerun ball.
It's only appropriate that he be there with me as he and I attended the first five Rockies pre-season games together earlier this year in Tucson.
Remember the Mobile Blog Unit?…Oh Yeah..Good times.
I've been plugging this team online in blog form for two years now. I believed then, I believe now.
Rockies…Have fun with this but never lose sight of the goal. We want a World Series Championship in Colorado.
The Colorado Rockies are "home grown" and are on their way to being well known.
The combination of teamwork, friendship, skill, and a big hearted skipper who tells it exactly like it is has enabled the Rockies to flourish this season…
Tomorrow I want to see a stadium full of Rockies fans giving it their all. I personally plan to lose my voice. Give me a shout if you see me on TV. I think I sit just behind Dan.
Go Rockies, don't worry if you see the cold wind blowing, those are the winds of change…D

Don, have an AWESOME time. I'll keep an eye out for ya. :0)
I am SO proud of this team. I am SO proud to be their fan. Let's do this Rockies. . . we believe in you.
The Rockies are still a fun team to watch. Next season they should try to win their division and not just settle for wild card spots.

Seems like just yesterday we read you tooling down the highway in the MBU towards Spring Training camps.
Been a wild ride this year with bangs and bumps, and I am not talking about just your truck and car.
But the Rockies made it back to the promised land, and performed like veterans.
The young bucks like Carlos Gonzalez, Dexter Fowler and Seth Smith shows the talent level that will keep the opposition sweating for years to come.
Playoffs might have come to a screeching halt, but we are all looking forward to the reporting date already.
Rays Renegade
JULIA-It was🙂
LUVMYROX-It was a great year…It was an honor to meet you and your family. You're nice people and hard core Rockies fans.
MATTHEW-I was under the assumption the Rockies were trying to win the Division? Welcome to the Rant brotha.
RAYSREN-Elegantly put my friend as always. You do have a way with words…You'd make a great motivational speaker…and not the kind living in a van down by the river🙂.
The wait begins…D

Loc: Rio Grande, Cape May County, N...
A headline on the Chicago White Sox homepage says, "White Sox attempt to make it a banner year." And I was gobsmacked that, as a lifelong and avid baseball fan, it has never occurred to me that that phrase, banner year, may have come from baseball...winning the pennant and thereby hoisting the banner at the stadium. So I went to Word Origins, but there's nothing there. Does anyone know if this is indeed the origin of the phrase, or another site where I can find the etymology?

I took a look in OED and it has the context of "entitled to a banner as a distinction" first showing up in 1840 with "The Whigs...proposed to designate whichever state should give the Harrison ticket the largest majority, as the banner state"
"Banner year" is cited there first as 1931 but in connection with a race horse breeder, not baseball.
I wouldn't think these are conclusively the earliest uses, but it doesn't look like baseball was the start.

Oh, WO'N, don't you have anything on your mind other than baseball?! I hadn't particularly thought about the usage before, but historically, banners have been carried by those who lead the parade, march or whatever, so I would think that having the banner signifies that you're in the lead.

- 250g box biscotti biscuits
- 100ml Vin Santo or other sweet dessert wine

Once available in Britain for just a brief period during the summer, strawberries are now a year…
- 50g golden caster sugar
- 250g tub mascarpone
- 284ml carton double cream, softly whipped
Place the biscotti biscuits in a plastic bag and crush them lightly with the end of a rolling pin, leaving them slightly chunky. Tip the crushed biscuits into a bowl, drizzle over the Vin Santo and give it a stir. In small bowl, use a fork to slightly mash half of the strawberries with the sugar.
Whip the mascarpone in a medium bowl, then fold into the whipped cream. If the mixture appears too thick fold through a little milk. In a 1-litre glass bowl, spread half of the soaked biscotti. Top with half of the mashed strawberries and then half of the mascarpone mixture. Repeat until you have used up everything. Slice the remaining strawberries and scatter over the top. Refrigerate, then pack into a cooler as this dessert should be served chilled.

I made this for big Eid party gathering. It came out really delicious. I made 5 big glass trays and it finished within minutes. Everybody loved it and is a big hit now. I used pineapple instead of strawberries and as we don't drink I just used the pineapple syrup to moist the biscuits. Thanks for the beautiful recipe
Very good with amaretto bisquits, I've made this twice and it has been a success.
There's quite a bit of liquid from the crushed strawberries (maybe I mashed them too profoundly, sliced might have been just as good), so be careful with the wine so that the bisquits remain a bit dry and will soak up some of the liquid.
Had to jiggle this one, I used twice the amount of stawberries and had to use a sweet dessert wine (Muscat) as I couldn't find Vin Santo anywhere, not even Waitrose! Also used italian sponge fingers not biscotti. However it made a lovely light strawberry tiramisu style dessert which easily served 8.
