I can't believe I'm back with more questions. It's just that with my son, he didn't sleep through the night until 4 months, but then he never looked back. No night wakings again unless he was sick. So, this whole reversion thing has me flummoxed.
As I've mentioned before, my 3-month-old daughter (10 lbs 12 ozs as of last week) has been sleeping for 8- to 11-hour stretches since about 7 weeks. Suddenly, within the last week, though, she's cut those stretches down to about 5 hours long. She's also nursing a lot longer at each feeding, so I'm guessing it's a growth spurt.
When she wakes up during the night, she's definitely hungry (sucking madly and roots when I touch her cheek), so I feel comfortable that I'm doing the right thing by nursing her. But my biggest fear is that by feeding her in the middle of the night, I'm somehow training her to wake up at night.
For those of you who have dealt with growth spurts, did your baby go back to sleeping through the night once the growth spurt passed? This whole night-waking thing would be much easier to take, if I knew there was a light at the end of the tunnel and everything will sort itself out eventually.
Also, these longer nursing episodes are throwing a wrench in our routine. I've figured out that she can really only last about 1 to 1-1/2 hours before she needs another nap. So, it used to be that she would nurse for 15 minutes whenever she woke up, play for about 45 minutes to an hour, and then nurse for another 15 minutes before going down for the next nap. Well, now that she's nursing about 45 minutes each time, it ends up being 2 to 3 hours before she goes down for her next nap at which point she's so overtired, she can't sleep, which makes it even worse for the next nap and so on.
The only solution I can think of is preserving the 1 to 1-1/2 hour wakeful time and cut out the play time (literally nurse, nap, nurse, nap, etc.). Is that how it's supposed to be during a growth spurt? How have others handled the longer nursing episodes and naps?
Lastly, I've found she now falls asleep at the breast (probably due to being overtired), which then only compounds the problem with getting her to nap. She'll nurse for a while, and then her eyes will close, her body will go all limp, the sucking will become softer, and the time between each suck will get longer. When she gets to this sleepy stage, can I assume she's had enough milk, or should I let her continue until she falls off the nipple, which could add another 20 to 30 minutes to the nursing? I've been doing the latter, but I'm finding that the little cat nap she has at the breast is enough to revive her and prevent her from taking a proper nap.
Apologies for the extremely long post. If you've made it this far, though, I'd love to hear any thoughts, ideas, or suggestions you may have.
Thank you!


text: I have had a milk blister for over three months and it will not go away...it causes pain off and on and is a never ending battle! My baby is only 4 months old, so I have had this and the pain for most of my nursing time! I have punctured it with a needle, soaked it, put olive oil on it...what else??? HELP! Thanks!

That was the sound made this morning when I double-clutched and shifted gears. I was sort the S&P (SH) and triple short the financials (FAZ). I have taken the profits and am now double long the Dow (DDM) and triple long the financials (FAS)
It came out OK, going short the way I did. I made some money. But I thought we'd go a bit lower. Then we Republicans stomped the crap outa the liberals in WI, and Germany has stepped up to the plate as George Soros predicted they would and made promises to help stabilize the Euro.
Not a game to play for most folks, but I like it.

The P-01 9mm (designated the P-06 in .40 S&W) was designed for LE
and Military duty, but its compact size and the reduced weight due to
its forged alloy frame made it ideal for discrete carry as well.
Equipped with a decocker, the P-01 provides convenience for those who
prefer hammer-down carry.
The P-01 was the first CZ model to benefit from updated manufacturing
technology at CZs Uhersky Brod factory. The components of the
P-01/P-06 are completely interchangable with every other P-01/P-06, with
no individual fitting required. This required some very careful
re-design so that the reliability and accuracy were not impaired. Since
the time of its introduction (designed in 2001, NATO-approved in 2003)
the production upgrades have been rolled out to most of the CZ 75 family
and several new rifle models as well. The 1913 accessory rail easily
accepts any of the industry-standard lights and lasers to assist
low-light use. After 3 years of some of the most aggressive small arms
testing ever, the CZ P-01 won the honor of replacing the CZ 75s
previously used by the Czech National Police.
Reliability: The U.S. Army "Mean Rounds Between Failure" (MRBF)
requirement is 495 rounds for 9mm pistols. During testing of the CZ
P-01, the average number of stoppages was only 7 per 15,000 rounds
fired. This is a .05% failure rate or an MRBF of 2142!
For many years, the P-01 carried an NSN engraved on its frame, making
it the first NATO-spec pistol ever available to the public. Recently,
the factory decided to upgrade the slide stop spring which in turn means
the current models may not carry the NSN.

Pharmacy Curriculum Overview
The Doctor of Pharmacy (Pharm.D.) degree is awarded after successful completion of four years of professional study. Two years (64 semester hours) of pre-professional education is required for admission, followed by four years of professional studies.
Review the four-year Pharmacy Course of Study.
Integrated Course Model
The Pharm.D. curriculum is designed such that courses integrate information, building upon one another, and encompass didactic, laboratory, and experiential learning.
An integrated course model is used to provide the foundations of drug action. In this model, physiology, medicinal chemistry, and pharmacology are integrated to allow you to see a broad view of how the physiochemical properties of drugs interact with human physiology.
Courses are taught by system (i.e. cardiovascular, neurological, renal, etc.). Medications and human physiology pertinent to each system are team-taught by faculty in their respective areas.
Starting in the second year, an integrated course will be used to provide the foundations of the application of drug therapy to disease. Also taught by system (i.e. cardiovascular disease, infectious diseases, etc.), the pathophysiology and application of drug therapy are team-taught by faculty in their respective areas.
Experiential Learning in Pharmacy
Running throughout the first three years of the curriculum will be professional courses intended to provide you an opportunity to integrate and apply information, to work in small groups to complete projects and assignments, and to help develop critical thinking and foster collaboration.
These courses will also provide early laboratory work in compounding and an opportunity for further development of both verbal and written skills.
The curriculum also provides a broad range of early, intermediate, and advanced pharmacy practice experiences over the four years of the professional curriculum. These experiences will give you activity-based, outcome-oriented experiences that are designed to develop attitudes, values, and skills that foster the effective delivery of pharmaceutical care.
Learn more about experiential education in the Pharm.D. program.
Pharm.D. Curriculum Philosophy
The Wegmans School of Pharmacy curriculum prepares students to practice in any professional setting.
It does so by providing a strong foundation in the sciences, clinical skills, and administration while emphasizing professionalism, integrity, and diversity.
Continuous assessment of the curriculum drives evidence-based changes to stay current in this dynamic profession.
Our Pharm.D. curriculum aligns with College-wide Learning Goals [pdf].

Military Medicine in Iraq
Doctors get a lot of flak these days without ever going near a battle zone. They are bombarded with accusations of not caring about their patients, of being shills for Big Pharma, of being motivated by money, of killing patients with medical errors and drug side effects. In addition, they are bombarded with claims that non-scientific medical systems (so-called alternative medicine, from chiropractic to Ayurveda) offer greater benefits to patients.
It was a delight to read a new book about a doctor who was exposed to real flak in Iraq. His story is a wonderful reminder of how effective modern medicine is and it is an eye-opener about the selfless dedication of doctors who put themselves in harm's way; who accept lower incomes, separation from families, and poor living conditions; who care desperately about their patients; and who magnanimously apply the same skills to treating friend and foe.
The title is Coppola: A Pediatric Surgeon in Iraq. The author, Chris Coppola, is an Air Force pediatric surgeon who was twice deployed to Balad Air Base, 50 miles north of Baghdad, as a trauma surgeon. In his first night on call, he treats the five worst gunshot injuries he has ever seen – and they are all in the same patient! Despite serious damage to liver, colon, small intestine, pancreas, duodenum, vena cava and spine, the patient, a 22 year old Iraqi policeman, recovers. As the foreword of the book explains, the survival rate for troops injured in the field was 20% in WWI, 40% in WWII, 66% in Viet Nam, and is now an astounding 97% in Iraq. Lessons learned in war are translated to civilian trauma care and we all benefit from the knowledge however much we may deplore the war.
No subluxations were adjusted, no qi manipulated, no acupuncture points stimulated, no homeopathic or herbal medicines given. Beside numbers like these, alternative medicine looks pretty puny and irrelevant. And the Air Force's initiative to train doctors in battlefield acupuncture looks frankly delusional. (more…)

Lanesboro, MN
Strolling down the quiet streets of Lanesboro is like taking a step back in time. The downtown area is listed on the National Register of Historic Places...and for good reason! The two and three story frame, brick and stone buildings have changed very little since they were first built by immigrants who settled here a century and a half ago. The businesses afford the community with all basic services, but starting mid-week through Sunday the city is invaded by visitors looking for that different experience, that place for relaxation, invigorating fresh air, breathtaking scenic beauty and mind stimulation.
Come and explore the many gift and antique shops. Sample the locally made delicacies downtown and various fruit wines produced right here at the local winery. During summer you'll find a fresh vegetable vendor or two on the corner. Wednesdays and Fridays the Lanesboro Livestock Commission conducts auctions. Farmers from the tri-state area bring in their livestock for these auctions and other special auctions. Saturdays are good days to catch an estate household auction. Church and social group dinners and bake sales are an added treat from time to time.
Bed and Breakfasts in and near Lanesboro and modern cabins in the city provide rooms for the overnight traveler, the weekend explorer or the family vacation.
The community provides a myriad of recreationalofferings. The Root River, which winds right through the middle of town, is excellent for canoeing, tubing and fishing.
The State DNR Fish Hatchery, located at Lanesboro, produces more trout per year than any other state hatchery. Weekday and special tours are available. Trout fishermen delight in the knowledge that nearly all the trout raised at the Lanesboro Hatchery are stocked in local streams.
The State DNR Trail is a blacktopped trail which runs along the Root River near Fountain to Houston. The multi-purpose trail is used by hikers and bikers during the summer months and skiers during the winter months on separate, groomed trails. Ski, bike, canoe, tube and horseback rentals/rides are available locally.
The Lanesboro Depot houses the DNR Trail Center, the Lanesboro Visitor and Information Center and public restrooms. Built entirely with community support, the Depot is reminiscent of the original train stop along the downtown section of the trail. The Scanlan Building houses the Lanesboro Museum. The two story museum is filled with local artifacts, the wood carvings of Hans Olson, and the upstairs rooms are set in late 1800's furnishings.
The century-old Power Dam, constructed in 1868, is known for its unique stone construction. Coupled with the city hydro-electric plant, this dam still provides electricity to the city.
The State Hardwood Forest stretches for miles in all directions around Lanesboro. The top wild turkey, grouse and white-tailed deer hunting, along with excellent trout, bass, catfish and panfish fishing is right here! Bird watchers, photographers, ginseng root and morel mushroom hunters enjoy the hardwood forest.
The Eagle Bluff Environmental Learning Center is located just north of Lanesboro on a bluff above the north branch of the Root River. The center provides hiking and sking trails, woodland and mushroom demonstrations and workshops.
The Lanesboro Golf Course is open to the public. The par 35, nine hole course offers a challenging and very scenic round of golf.
Sylvan Park is considered by many to be one of the nicest city parks in this section of the state. Its two spring-fed ponds offer fresh catches for the evening campfire. Camping (with electric hookups, a dumping station and hot showers) is a half-block from the river, the dam and the downtown area. Picnic shelters, electricity and bathrooms are also available to picnickers, tenters and campers. Two lighted, regulation size tennis courts, horseshoe pits and grass volleyball courts, along with a friendly flock of ducks, enables anyone to have an enjoyable stay at the park.
Art in the Park, sponsored by the Lanesboro Arts Council has become one of the largest arts festivals in southeastern Minnesota. Held each year in June on Father's Day, the annual arts and crafts exhibition and sale draws people from all over the tri-state area.
The arts are also represented by several galleries, including Cornucopia Art Center. A cooperative representing over 30 regional artists, Cornucopia features special art exhibits year around.
The Commonweal Theatre Company, a professional non-profit theater company, in cooperation with the Lanesboro Arts Council, performs throughout the summer. Special rates for tour groups are available.
Buffalo Bill Days is held the first weekend in August. The weekend events include softball and volleyball tournaments, dances, food stands, parades, kids games, historic tours and much more. The celebration originated to commemorate the fact that Buffalo Bill Cody first practiced his Wild West Show in the Root River Valley near Lanesboro. Bill Cody's good friend Dr. Powell, was a resident of Lanesboro during the 1800's. Oktoberfest means polka music, German foods, beer and dancing. This festival is held the first Saturday in October and includes polka bands from the tri-state area.
Come discover and explore Lanesboro in Historic Bluff Country!

Survival instinct
February 20, 2013 —
SULLIVAN COUNTY, NY — There resides in us a powerful life force which, when challenged, will fight back with unfathomable determination to survive. For the will to go on, even in the face of unspeakable adversity, is our most assertive instinct. That said, those battles waged, even with the most exemplary valor, are ultimately defeated by our mortality. Life, at least in this plane of existence, is of limited duration. We plan, we hope, we dream of a long and fulfilled lifespan, but there are forces that can efface such longings and none of them is more lethal than cancer.
Call it the scourge of our time, but it leaves few lives untouched. The battles to find a cure or, better yet, prevention are ongoing. And to that end, many have lent their energy and resources to hasten the coming of that wondrous day when we can regard cancer like polio, diphtheria, smallpox and other once dreaded diseases, as yet another triumphant victory in our battle for survival.
The world of sports has been strongly impacted by this disease, which has claimed some its most storied warriors. Marshaling legions of fans who share a common love of basketball along with a longing to end the reign of cancer, fundraising efforts such as Coaches Versus Cancer have raised millions of dollars for research and treatment.
Locally, that movement is now in its fifth year, celebrated most recently by the Fifth Annual Sullivan County BCANY Coaches Versus Cancer Classic Basketball Tournament staged this year at Monticello High School on February 16 and at Sullivan County Community College on February 17. Detailed stories about the event's inception and its history, dubbed "Survivor's Manifesto," can be found at www.sportsinsightsny.com in archives from past years.

Citigroup alternative assets head departs
The head of the Citigroup unit catering to private equity and infrastructure firms in Europe, Middle East and Africa has left the bank, a departure that comes hot on the heels of one of the firm's top industrials bankers who was moved into that business six months ago.
Steve Conway, head of the bank's Emea alternative assets group, handed in his notice last week, according to two people familiar with the situation. He is expected to take a role on the buyside, according to the people. Conway could not be reached for comment.
His departure follows that of Dimitrios Georgiou, who previously co-led the bank's industrials group and was moved into the alternative assets group in October last year. Georgiou could not be reached for comment.
The alternative assets group, created in 2008, sits within Citi's investment bank and caters to private equity and infrastructure firms.
The departure of Conway represents a blow to the US bank's efforts to win business with private equity firms, the source of a growing percentage of total investment banking revenues.
The US bank generated just short of $100 million in fees from financial sponsor clients in Emea last year, according to Dealogic, ranking it 12th in the league tables. Goldman Sachs topped the table, generating $407 million in fees from financial sponsor-related deals.
Conway is a well-known figure in private equity, having spent time as global head of financial sponsors and leveraged finance at UBS and head of European financial sponsors at JP Morgan.
He previously worked as a senior adviser to private equity groups TDR Capital and Advent International.
He was hired to the role at Citi in 2011, replacing Jonathan Rowland, who moved into a client coverage role in UK banking and broking, and later left. He has since set up debt advisory firm Tomorrow Partners.
The US bank announced last week that it had hired Koen van Velsen as head of industrials investment banking for Emea, based in London, effective June. Van Velsen joined from JP Morgan, where he was previously head of industrials for the region, according to a memo from Citigroup.

"For the Scripture says 'Holy, holy, holy Lord of hosts; full is every creature of his glory'. And we, led by conscience, gathered together in one place in concord, cry to Him continuously as from one mouth, that we may become sharers in His great and glorious promises."
~ The Sanctus, here described by Pope Clement I (from his I Cor., 34:6-7) circa A.D. 95, is one of the most ancient parts of the sacred liturgy, tracing back to the time of the apostles.

A Lemon Scented Exhortation
First, I want to applaud my friend, Mr. Lung, for manning up and taking the challenge presented to him yesterday. While I know the battle will be arduous and the spoils of war far from certain, all of us here at RSBS take pride in seeing one of our own step forward and say, "Yes, I do want to be a hero." And Jeff, we will also be here for you when you are unceremoniously shot down and return grieving to the RSBS bosom. We will wipe the tears from your eyes while whispering softly the immortal words of Homer Simpson, "You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try."
In all honesty, though, I think that if anyone can answer this throwing down of the gauntlet, it's Jeff. He's the kind of guy who, when life gives him lemons, takes those lemons home and cuts them up so they can be stuck into freshly opened bottles of Corona. It's one of the many reasons why we get along so well. I just hope that he at least mentions me when he finally meets Ms. Andrews. And then tries to set me up with her sister.
There is only one other challenge where Mr. Lung would have been so well equipped to confront and overcome the obstacle, at least according to what he says. Here it is, in his own words. "…When it comes to the dance floor, dear Erin, I got moves galore." Oh yeah? Think the two of you could top these guys?
Actually, I really hope so.
The weekend is over. Long live the weekend!

I knew Bright House field was entertaining, but that was ridiculous! I think USF won it with the Riverdance. Funny!!
Wow Allen, that's a hard act to follow, best of luck to Jeff.
Allen, maybe Jeff will let you be Best Man at his wedding. On second thought, maybe you and he can have a double wedding with the Andrews sisters! (I'm available for flower girl duties.)
Wow…I sent that video clip to pretty much everyone I know! Perhaps the funniest thing I have ever seen transpire on a baseball diamond!

Bloody heroin needle found in bread
Mom makes discovering while making son a sandwich
Published On: Feb 08 2013 07:58:12 AM CST Updated On: Feb 08 2013 12:26:39 PM CST
A mother in England made a gruesome find, discovering a bloody heroin needle in a loaf of bread.
The woman in Manchester was making her 10-year-old a sandwich when she found the used needle pushed through the loaf's plastic wrapper, The Telegraph reported.
She called authorities, who used DNA technology to link the syringe to 61-year-old David Rodgers.
Rodgers, of Salford, pleaded guilty this week to contaminating the bread with intent to cause public alarm, The Daily Mail reported.
He said he hid the heroin needle in the bread after getting high in December to keep his wife from finding out he was using the drug again.

FOLLOW UP: Intel Confirms Lawsuit Against Nvidia: "We Have Been in Discussions for More Than a Year".
Intel Corp. on Monday reportedly filed a case in Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware in a bid to ban Nvidia from making core-logic sets compatible with Intel's Core i7 processors and its derivatives with integrated memory controller. In response, Nvidia Corp. said that it was sure that it has right to sell chipsets for Core i7 and other chips and that Intel wants to slowdown evolution of graphics chips with the court filing.
"We are confident that our license, as negotiated, applies," said Jen-Hsun Huang, president and chief executive officer of Nvidia.
The filing does not impact Nvidia chipsets that are currently being shipped, but Intel insists that the cross-licensing agreement the companies signed back in 2004 does not extend to Intel's future generation central processing units with integrated memory controllers, such as code-named Nehalem family, which includes Intel Core i7 processors and their derivatives.
Intel has not commented on the issue by the time of publication.
Nvidia's chief executive accused Intel of trying to slowdown the evolution of graphics processing units as well as Nvidia's chipsets so to be able to control Intel-based PC platforms itself.
"At the heart of this issue is that the CPU has run its course and the soul of the PC is shifting quickly to the GPU. This is clearly an attempt to stifle innovation to protect a decaying CPU business," claimed Mr. Huang.
Mr. Huang said that, given the "broad and growing adoption of Nvidia's platform innovations", it is not surprising that Intel is now initiating a dispute over a contract signed four years ago. According the chief of Nvidia, technologies like Nvidia Ion (integrated core-logic for Intel Atom and other processors), SLI (multi-GPU rendering), Hybrid power (ability to switch between integrated and discrete graphics core), and CUDA (programming language for GeForce GPUs) threaten Intel's ability to control the PC platform.

Death penalty to remain
ST. CLAIRSVILLE The death penalty will remain an option for the upcoming trial of Brandon Michael Phelps, 21, 1281 Birch St., Bellaire, accused murderer of a Bellaire woman.
Defense attorneys had challenged the Constitutionality of the death penalty, motioning to dismiss the penalty due to Constitutional and international law violations and motioning to dismiss capital components of the case due to Constitutional law violations. However, Common Pleas Judge Frank Fregiato, who is presiding over the case, overruled both motions.
Along with issues of Constitutionality, defense had argued that the death penalty option can lead to arbitrary and unequal punishment, that burdens of proving mitigating factors are placed on the defense, and that it creates undue risk for a defendant who decides to go to trial rather than plea. Defense also put forward Phelps' pre-sentence evaluations and mental health evaluations for consideration, and also argued that the definition of mitigating factors is unconstitutional.
Fregiato noted numerous precedents when prior courts ruled against those arguments.
Phelps and Devin Wayne Fuller, 19, 3567 Franklin St., Bellaire, are charged with four counts of aggravated murder, committed in the course of rape, of aggravated burglary, of burglary and of trespassing. The charges carry a death penalty specification.
Both face two additional counts of trespassing. Phelps is also accused of possession of a deadly weapon while under detention, a felony of the first degree.
The crimes are alleged to have taken place June 29-30, 2012. The victim, Lydia Ashworth, was found dead in her home.
Phelps' trial date is set for Jan. 2.

that said...I knew they were going to wreck! That was inevitable. I didn't hear it, but a friend told me Joey said "that's what he gets" in his post race interview, referring to Denny.
And I really thought Tony was going to have a great points day.... so much for that! At least Fox was smart enough to not run his interview live and censored it when they did show it.
I do understand why Tony is pi$$ed but honestly - that's racing! Can't wait to see how this plays out...
They have a week off to either calm down or get even more fired up for Martinsville, another bumpin' and rubbin' track...we know Tony and Denny will be around Joey at some point(s) during the race...can't wait to see what happens!!
Definitely the most intense, exciting race I've personally ever watched at California. Usually it's so boring that I barely pay any attention. Glad it was so awesome today even though Tony had another bad finish.
"If it works for you, do it. If its how you feel, act it. Just be yourself, and if being yourself means being cocky once in a while, have at it." ~Tony Stewart

The limited edition Kisai Rogue Touch Pocket Watch is a futuristic take on the traditional. Featuring an LCD display with touch screen technology, dual time, date and alarm, it brings a new dimension to the classic pocket watch.
Available in four display colors, the Kisai Rogue Touch Pocket Watch has a hybrid LCD/LED interface giving you the best of both worlds; the LCD display is always on so the time can be read at a glance and the LED backlight function means it will light up on demand.
A multi-functional watch design, the Kisai Rogue Touch Pocket Watch displays the time in two time zones and has a date mode, an alarm and a futuristic animation.
The touch screen display has four hot-zones (top, bottom, left, right). Simply touch with your finger to change mode; time, date, alarm, light up.
Holding your finger in place for a few seconds allows you to customise; hold your finger over the alarm zone to set the alarm, hold it over the time zone to set the time. It's intuitive, simple and fun to operate.
After 60 seconds the screen will lock to prevent accidental input, however the LED light up function can always be operated. To unlock the display, simply swipe your finger across the screen from left to right. Please see the video at the bottom of the page to see this in action.
Part of the attraction of this watch is its seemingly unfathomable display. So many dials and lines look bewildering at first glance, but as with all watches from Tokyoflash Japan, there's a simple method, which becomes second nature very quickly.
Around the outside of the display are 12 large blocks which indicate the current hour in the same position as hours on a clock face. Just inside that are smaller dots for the minutes 1-60. The two centre most rings show time zone two in the same way; hours, then minutes on the inner most ring.
Please refer to the diagrams or download the PDF instruction manual for a detailed explanation of all the watch functions and settings or see the video for a demonstration.
Like all watches from Tokyoflash Japan, the Kisai Rogue Touch Pocket Watch is a limited edition design which means it is guaranteed to be an original watch that not many other people own.
Encased in a classic stainless steel pocket watch case, the Kisai Rogue Touch Pocket Watch has a polished finish with brushed detail on the case edges and button. The watch has a spring-hinged circular metal cover with a mineral crystal lens that closes over the interface to protect it from dust. This can be opened simply by pressing the button at the top of the watch.
The watch also comes with a chain to allow it to be secured to a waistcoat, lapel or belt loop and the watch will fit neatly into your pocket.

Cheats and Walkthroughs(22)
I remember an episode of Feedback a while back that had something to do with Call of Duty and how the guys who made it wanted a lot of money, but the publisher wouldn't give it to them, so everyone left and nobody made Call of Duty anymore. Do you remember that episode, Zach? It was one of my favorites. But then they started talking about the Supreme Court for some reason, and I thought that was weird. You'd think it was weird, too, Zach.
Oh, and they also talked about Deadly Premonition. My coffee told me that they liked it.
Feedback: Being completely, absurdly, and hilariously weird since 2009.

Lily here is a no-frills kind of gal, a working babe who prides herself on being rough 'n' rough, while Pamela is strictly white-collar upper crust, what with her fancy lacy boulder holder and all. But when the two of them kiss, all class barriers are down as Pamela reveals that she just wants to get off like anybody else. She's eager not only to have Lily lick her titties, but to drip more yogurt on them to lick! And she does the same on Lily's knockers too, lapping the goo off her nips.
Putting aside the yogurt, the ladies concentrate on some of the other tasty delights their bodies can offer. Lily hefts Pam's jugs and then goes down on her lovely naked slit. Then the two gals get down on the floor, mostly out of their duds, and Lily sucks on Pam's nipples while Pam rubs her beautifully pink-manicured fingers against Lily's quim. The babes do a titty-69, sucking on each other's knobs and then rubbing them together as they lay on the dusty floor, and then Pam plays deeply with Lily's snatch. But would you believe it? They top off this flesh festival of fabulous floppers with more yogurt for dessert, which leaves their racks covered in the goo!

Water Fluoridation
Why is oral health a public health issue?
Oral health is integral to general health.1 Although preventable, tooth decay is a chronic disease affecting all age groups. In fact, tooth decay is the most common chronic disease of childhood.1 It is a greater problem for those who have limited access to prevention and treatment services. Left untreated, tooth decay can cause pain and tooth loss. Infection originating from teeth can lead to abscesses and spread to distant sites of the body like the brain. Among children, untreated decay has been associated with difficulty in eating, sleeping, learning, and proper nutrition.1 An estimated 51 million school hours are lost due to cavities. Almost one fifth of all health care expenditures in children are related to dental care. 1 Among adults, untreated decay and tooth loss can also have negative effects on an individual's self-esteem and employability.
In the U.S., tooth decay 2 affects:
- 1 in 4 children aged 2-5
- 1 in 2 school children
- 2 of 3 adolescents
- 9 of 10 adults
Tooth decay may lead to:
- Abscess and extremem pain
- Blood infection that can spread
- Difficulty in Chewing
- Poor weight gain
- School absences
- Crooked teeth

A new city law took effect banning tour buses from Kailua and Kalama beach parks.
Since then, the buses have inundated Kailua Beach Shopping Center, which many nearby residents say causes traffic jams and a safety hazard which has gotten exponentially worse.
"The latest incidents include buses stopping in the Kailua Beach Center and literally stopping on the roads and backing traffic up," said frustrated resident Fred Hemmings. "We want to maintain the residential neighborhood and not turn into Waikiki."
The residents say the tour buses and vans have increased traffic in a primary residential neighborhood. They say larger buses pull over on the side of the narrow road, causing drivers to go into oncoming traffic to get around them. In addition, frustrated Kailua homeowners say letting off dozens of tourists on a busy road creates a dangerous situation.
"You have buses, children walking, bikers and cars. It occurs in this one spot right now and it is too dangerous." said State representative Cynthia Thielen. "People are working together to find a solution before we have a tragedy,"
Residents hope they, along with the city and the owners of the shopping center can come to a compromise soon about the buses. In the meantime, many residents will be staging a protest Saturday morning near the beach center to get their concerns heard.

My problem with the PS2 ending is that it seems to pull a "lol j/k" on you and weaken the whole purpose of the original ending. If they were gonna end with a happy end like that I would've liked a bit more closure, but instead we get a very brief conclusion that feels very rushed.
I really like all the extra scenes added in the PS2 version however.

I've read the PS2 version is slightly different from the PC one. What are those differences (beside the lack of porn)? I've read they added new scenes but, are those new scenes just the replacement for the h-ones, or actual extra content?
Also, regarding the ending in the PS2 version: Do the players have to make any specific choices to get it (whilst still being able to get the sad/original ending), or was it simply the original ending but retconned? I've got another question, has Maeda had any word on the PS2's ending? Did he give any reason for the addition of a new ending? I'd assume that maybe fanboys complained and so they added a new ending but, I also remember that Air's and Planetarian's endings, so far, have remained unchanged.
Anyway, I liked this game. The feeling was similar to Clannad's After Story but, for some reason, it felt a bit more mature. The way Tomoya and Tomoyo grew together and built their own family was really nice. The way their feelings toward each other was portrayed was really beautiful, in my opinion.
Also, even if I do not like J-Pop myself, I ended up downloading "Light Colors;" strangely, that song appealed to me.

Plainfield eyes next repair job
PLAINFIELD As town officials get ready to finish repairs to Plainfields historic Town Hall, they have already laid out the next project: repairs and renovations to the municipal building.
The town will be holding an informational meeting Tuesday night to talk about the two buildings and lay out what residents will be voting on in regard to them on Town Meeting Day. The meeting will be at the Grace Methodist Church at 7 p.m.
The 150-year-old Town Hall has been closed since 2011, when an inspection showed it had structural and health problems. As a result, Plainfield had to hold last years town meeting in the fire station and had to get the Legislatures permission to hold this years town meeting at Twinfield Union School since it is in another town.
Select Board Chairman David Strong said the biggest structural repairs to the main floor, balcony and roof structure were completed last month.
Its stronger now than it was when it was built, he said of the roof structure.
The next step is to remodel and repair the basement. The town hall has a mold and drainage issue, Strong said, so the town sought and was awarded a $28,000 matching grant from the Vermont Arts Council. To help match the grant, the town is asking for $15,000 from voters on Town Meeting Day.
To make up the remaining cost, as well as pay for more changes such as a handicapped-accessible bathroom, a warming kitchen, a heating system and reinforcements to supports for the main floor, the town launched a fund drive last month. The goal is to raise $75,000 by August. Strong said $8,000 has been pledged so far and he hopes to have around $10,000 to $15,000 pledged by Town Meeting Day on March 5.
Strong said he hopes the necessary repairs can be finished in time to open the Town Hall for Plainfields Old Home Day, a celebration of the town and its history, in early September.
Apart from the interior repairs and remodeling, Strong said the outside of the building needs work, too. The town has applied for an $88,500 grant from the Vermont Housing and Conservation Board to replace the roof, paint the building, insulate and reglaze all the windows, and repair any damaged exterior wood. Voters at Town Meeting will also decide whether to provisionally accept the grant if the town is awarded it in March or April.
Another vote that will take place on Town Meeting Day is whether the town should look into remodeling its municipal building. Strong said the building, which was constructed in 1819, needs some renovations to suit the municipalitys needs more effectively.
The town bought the building in 2004, and it holds the town clerks office, the town vault, the office of the assessor, a small meeting room and a rental space occupied by the Washington Northeast Supervisory Union.
Strong said the plan is to remodel the building so a larger meeting space can be created that holds around 20 people; the current space can hold only around 10. There would also be office space for the zoning administrator, which the building currently lacks.
The larger meeting space would be created on the second floor, with the third floor being opened up for office space. The rental space would actually increase office space rather than decrease it. Strong said the early cost estimate of the remodeling is around $400,000.
With the Town Hall work nearing completion, putting money into another meeting space could be seen as unnecessary.
The problem, in terms of administrative work, is that all the files are located at the municipal building. If you have to refer to something during the course of a hearing or meeting, you wouldnt have access to it over at (the Town Hall), Strong said, adding that heating the large Town Hall for a three- or four-hour meeting where not many people show up would not be economical.
Other repairs that are planned as part of the project are structural fixes to bring the building up to code, a new roof and more insulation in the attic.
Strong said the meeting Tuesday will give residents a chance to see what has been done and will be done to the Town Hall, as well as a breakdown of the plan for the municipal building.
Those in attendance at the meeting are expected to include the Select Board, the town clerk, a representative from DeWolfe Engineering, architect Sandra Vitzthum and supervisory union Superintendent Nancy Thomas.

Shaw's removes food donation boxes
MONTPELIER The donation boxes in the entry of the Shaws supermarkets in Montpelier and Berlin, including receptacles for the Montpelier food pantry and the Central Vermont Humane Society, have been removed without explanation after 13 years, said Theresa Murray-Clasen, executive director of Just Basics, on Tuesday.
Just Basics Inc. is the nonprofit that administers the Montpelier Food Pantry and the meals program at the Montpelier Senior Activity Center.
Murray-Clasen said she has reached out to Shaws management in West Bridgewater, Massachusetts, for an explanation but has not heard back. She is hoping some public pressure may reverse what appears to be a corporate decision.
I tried to take the high road, said Murray-Clasen, adding that her concerns are shared by area clergy and businesspeople.
Andrew Brewer, president of the Montpelier Business Association, said the situation will be discussed at a meeting today of the association. He also said he expects the association to contribute proceeds from the Bag That Bag program to the food pantry in light of the loss of the Shaws donation drops.
Under the Bag That Bag program, every time a shopper uses either a reusable bag or his or her own bag at a participating merchant, the merchant donates 5 cents to a fund that benefits a variety of nonprofits.
Theres definitely some head shaking, said Brewer, but thats without hearing Shaws side of it.
Efforts Tuesday to obtain a comment from Shaws Supermarkets Public Affairs Manager Jeffrey Gulko or another company representative were unsuccessful.
Anne Ward, director of operations at the Central Vermont Humane Society, said Tuesday, We got a call from Shaws to pick (the boxes) up some weeks ago. She said she was told the company had updated its policy around donations and nonprofit organizations and it no longer allows for the bins in the entry.
We are disappointed, but they continue to support Central Vermont Humane Society in other ways, said Ward.
Murray-Clasen said she thinks the policy change will backfire on Shaws when central Vermonters realize its hurting the food pantry.
Its a huge loss for us, she said, noting that the Shaws drops funneled critical staples to the food bank throughout the year, supplementing the pantrys major food drives in May and during the winter holiday season.
In an Aug. 23 letter to Gulko and Shaws, Murray-Clasen wrote, It remains unclear why Shaws has made this decision, pointing to comments on the Shaws website about how important it is for the company to be a good corporate citizen.
The website includes this statement: Ending hunger in our local communities is core to our charitable mission. We support organizations providing comprehensive hunger relief programming and food distribution.
Murray-Clasens letter continues, Shaws decision to remove Just Basics Inc. customer donation boxes will result in the annual loss of at least 7,000 pounds of nonperishable foods.
Murray-Clasen said she has not heard from Shaws since sending the letter.

BABYLON - A two-part snowstorm is bringing back bad memories of Superstorm Sandy for Long Islanders who live near the water.
Catherine Grottola, of Babylon, is still rebuilding after Sandy flooded her home four months ago. Now, she says she lives in fear whenever a new storm is in the forecast.
"I couldn't go to work because we were trapped," Grottola says. "Since Sandy, this is the fourth time we've been stuck in the house."

SNOWFALL TOTALS: March 2013 storm totals for LI
It's a similar story in Patchogue, where many are still living in trailers near the bay. Residents say a foot of water flooded streets at high tide today.
The South Shore is supposed to be protected by Fire Island, but experts say Sandy caused a breach in the barrier island that is several hundred feet wide.
They say the breach is letting more water into the bay, leading to more flooding during storms.

Sitting in a favorite chair in her farm house, Lillian Weber sets her sights on one specific goal.
"I just love to sew," she says.
"It just kinda fascinates me."
For the past two years, she's sewn dresses for little girls. The clothes are sent to a group called "Little Dresses for Africa".
"What would they wear if they didn't have that?" she asked.
Right now she's working on dress number 854. She has a goal to make her one thousandth dress by the time she turns 100 in May.
"I'm doing my part. I don't want any credit for it. I just want to make them and send them to them'" Weber said.
But since Weber's story was first published two weeks ago, she's been getting a lot of credit.
"It's just unbelievable, it's everywhere," said Lillian's daughter, LeAnn Winger. "You just type her name and hundreds of things come up."
Her story can be seen on CNN, the Huffington Post, plus hundreds of other sites like The Gloss.
But that's just in the U.S.
Lillian's story is now translated into French, German, Japanese and other languages.
It's become a worldwide feel good story.
"I mean, it's such a great story," Winger said.
"Who could read this and not be impressed and, you know, appreciate it."
One person not impressed is Weber.
"I just hope (the dresses) fit and everything, you know?" she said.
Lillian's family says they're grateful for the outpouring of support they've received. Many well-wishers have offered to send her fabric and sewing material. But they say what they really need now is money to send the dresses to Africa.
"Little Dresses for Africa" has established the "Lillian Weber Shipping Fund" to help pay for the costs to deliver the dresses.
The group calls Lillian its "Sewing Celebrity".
Whether it's one dress, number 100, or it's that one thousandth dress, Weber said she's not doing it for attention.
Another daughter, Linda Purcell, thinks she knows how her mother feels.
"To have these little girls in these dresses that are actually mine. I think that means a lot to her," she said.
And Weber will now get that chance when the founder of "Little Dresses for Africa" delivers four of her dresses to four little girls, sending a picture back to this farm house for Weber to see.
That's worth more to Weber than a thousand news stories.

Too funny: MassGOP buys Elizabeth Warren an Ancestry.com membership for her birthday
Oh, this is too funny. The merry pranksters at the MassGOP sent out a press release this morning, saying that as a gift for Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren's 63rd birthday, they had bought her an Ancestry.com membership:
MassGOP's Gift To Elizabeth Warren On Her 63rd Birthday: A Complimentary Ancestry.com Account
Boston – Nearly two months after Elizabeth Warren's false claims to Native American heritage first surfaced, the Massachusetts Republican Party is today offering the Harvard Professor a complimentary account to Ancestry.com to commemorate her 63rd birthday.
"Since Professor Warren has failed to come up with any evidence supporting her claims to Native American ancestry, we thought this Ancestry.com account would make the perfect birthday gift," said Nate Little, Executive Director of the Massachusetts Republican Party. "If she takes the time to log-in to her gift, Warren will see what has been abundantly clear to everyone else for months: she is not a Native American. If Professor Warren still refuses to meet with the real Cherokees in Boston this week to accept their evidence, this research tool will make it all the more difficult for her to continue to deny the truth. Quite simply, her convenient claims to Native American heritage, timed just so, are entirely unfounded."
Should Professor Warren take up the offer, the account information will be emailed to her campaign staff immediately.
MassGOP's snarky gift comes after the Warren campaign has been running an online ad campaign asking supporters to donate for her birthday.
Also debuting today: a Tumblr blog, "63 Things: #63things you won't find at Elizabeth Warren's Birthday Party," along with an accompanying hashtag game on Twitter, #63things.

Judge keeps teen's homicide case in adult court
Boy accused of killing great-grandmother
A judge has ruled the trial of a Sheboygan teenager accused in the killing of a 78-year-old woman will remain in adult court.
Judge Timothy Van Akkeren ruled Wednesday after a hearing on whether to move the 14-year-old boy's case to juvenile court.
The Sheboygan Press reported the judge found the boy would have access to the same mental health programs, whether he's in the adult or juvenile correctional system.
The boy has not entered a plea yet. He and a 14-year-old friend are accused of bludgeoning the friend's great-grandmother, Barbara Olson, to death at her Sheboygan Falls home Sept. 17. The boys were 13 at the time.
The friend has allowed his case to remain in adult court and has pleaded not guilty by mental disease or defect.
