Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage
We seek two outstanding Grinnell College upper class undergraduate students in cultural anthropology, environmental anthropology, or environmental studies to assist with an ongoing research project at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage in northeast Missouri during summer 2015. Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage, a community of approximately 50 people governed by a representative democracy, village council process on 280 acres of collectively held land, was founded in the mid-1990s and aims to grow to a community of 500 to 1000 people demonstrating models of sustainable living. The research, with data collection ongoing since summer 2013, is designed to assist the community in assessing their progress toward their goals of developing ecologically sustainable and socially rewarding lives while also teaching and inspiring others about the models they are creating.
Selected students will spend six weeks to three months during the summer living in the ecovillage and assisting the research team in data collection. During this time, the students will be under the supervision of Joshua Lockyer, Ph.D. and Assistant Professor of Anthropology at Arkansas Tech University, and Brooke Jones, MA. After completing the first full season of data collection on this project as a Master's degree student in Applied Anthropology at the University of North Texas, Brooke currently serves as a research coordinator for Dancing Rabbit's educational nonprofit organization and will be present throughout the summer. Dr. Lockyer has been working with Dancing Rabbit since 2009, is Principle Investigator on the project, and will visit several times during the summer. Student interns and their home academic institution will be responsible for their own expenses and should be comfortable living away from home in an unconventional setting that will include an isolated rural environment, regular social interaction, communal eating arrangements, a lack of flush toilets, and possible outdoor accommodations.
Possible research activities will include, but not be limited to, collection and weighing of personal and community trash, collection and compilation of existing data records within the community, communication with outside utility services such as the county water department and the county propane distributor to obtain records, researching ways to effectively assess food systems within the community and their ecological impact, researching other measures such as firewood usage to identify effective data collection practices, conduct in-person interviews regarding quality of life and effectiveness of education and outreach programs, compilation and analysis of data, and interview transcription. Students will gain valuable skills in community level sustainable living practices, resource sharing, applied research, participant observation, participatory action research, quantitative and qualitative data collection and analysis, interviewing, communication, etc. The internship may be designed to be taken for credit in cooperation with Dr. Jon Andelson at Grinnell College.
Interested students should send a short letter of application outlining applicable experiences and reasons for being interested in the project, a resume, unofficial undergraduate transcripts, and one letter of recommendation to: Dr. Jon Andelson, Dr. Joshua Lockyer, and Brooke Jones no later than December 15, 2014.

Utah State Aggie Insights
Spring 2013

Utah State University Alumni Association
Alumni Spotlight - Winward Family
by Liz Wilson
Aggie Pride runs deep in the Winward family of Willard, Utah. Mom, Kali, and husband, Levi, both attended Utah State. Levi graduated in 2006 with a bachelor's degree in biovetrinary science. "My husband got accepted to BYU and USU and he just didn't like Provo," said Kali, "We love Cache Valley!"
Kali and Levi were more than happy to pass on their Aggie Pride to their kids, Tanna and Tayton. Seven-year-old Tayton has been a fan of Aggie sports since before he could cheer.
The Winward family has been through a lot this last year and young Tayton has turned to his Aggie pride to give him something to smile about.
In November of 2012 Tayton was involved in an accident that caused burns on his body as well as upper airway. With his injuries in his airways, he is prone to infection and can easily get ill. His road to recovery is ongoing but his love for Utah State is one thing that has helped him keep moving along.
Before leaving the hospital on Christmas day 2012, Tayton wanted to pay a special tribute to USU. His injuries require him to wear burn gloves, and he requested that he get a pair in his favorite colors, Aggie blue and white. Throughout his recovery process, family and friends have been supportive of the Winward family through fundraisers and other projects. When the Winward family entered Tayton in a photo contest, his family across the country asked people to vote for him. "It was so cute! My little nieces and nephews in Texas were passing out flyers," said Kali. Due to Tayton's dedicated fans, he won the photo contest.
In addition to helping him win a photo contest, many other groups have tried to help the Winwards. At the end of March, Tayton was chosen to be the recipient of the Todd Morrison Alumni Tournament. Each year, alumni of Box Elder High School hold a basketball tournament to raise money to help children from Box Elder School District who have experienced misfortune.
The Tournament was one way community members in Northern Utah have banded together to help Tayton and his family. Many other individuals and groups have also helped the Winward family. "I just don't think I could ever get through this without the support that we have," Kali said, "They're having a fundraiser for us this weekend. It's just sweet how everybody is concerned over him; I never thought a little boy could do so much."
In addition to fundraisers, members of "Team Tayton" also organized a visit from his favorite mascot, Big Blue. After all he has been through Tayton has still made time to root for his Aggies declaring, "I'm the biggest Aggie fan there is!" The Winwards have tried to take Tayton to as many Aggie games as his health allows. They hope that soon they will be able to take Tayton back to school and to every Aggie game.
Throughout his surgeries and medical visits the Winward's came up with the perfect mantra to keep Tayton motivated, "I believe that we will win!"

Thieves recently made off with a shipment of walnuts valued at nearly $400,000.
Authorities in Escalon, Calif. say this theft, estimated to be about 140,000 pounds, is one of the biggest nut heists in history, reported The Associated Press.
The thieves cut through the fence of a large facility and made off with several truckloads of walnuts. Authorities say rising prices is what appears to be driving the rash of recent thefts, which have prompted walnut orchard-owners to implement more security measures.

Neat and nice Doc, thanks. My own poem isn't close but I'll post it just for spite.
Rhubarb Commando is a...
far traveling vegetable from a planet with no name
He's a six foot vasiform tube with a six foot brain
No not ordinary slime
Special slime that rhymes sublime
Some folks think him genius others think him sane
Now I'll get back to SWEETEN - TABLE

Since we don't have a new challenge yet:
My friend uses house flies to sweeten
His breakfast of cereal wheaten.
He looks, at his table,
Like a clone of Clark Gable,
But his habits are those of a cretin.

Goldberg: Dems invoke 'forward,' no direction
"Forward" is a perfectly appropriate slogan for progressives. Progress suggests forward or upward motion. That's why revolutionaries and radicals as well as liberal incrementalists have always embraced some derivation of the forward trope.

I think about writing all of the time—and especially this column. As I plot out the details of the coming week, the column begins to take on life in its own ever-changing, capricious way, almost becoming alive in my anthropomorphic mind as I wend my way through this entertaining, never ending tour of the Delaware River Valley. Sometimes I stop to snap a pic of a baby skunk by the side of the road, and this act alone gives birth to a paragraph or two. Other days, it's the weather.
On Tuesday, I joined a huge crowd at the Dancing Cat Saloon (www.dancingcatsaloon.com [2]) to bask in the glorious musical experience that is jazz vocalist Donna Singer, performing selections from her new CD "In The Living Room" with the Doug Richards trio (www.cdbaby.com/cd/jazzinthelivingroom [3]). The show was tremendous, and I figured I'd have plenty of space to devote some pithy comments on the evening's enormously successful launch party.
And then, on Saturday morning, I turned to the news. Every so often (don't get used to it), this column is influenced by something monumental, and that happened on Saturday as I watched TV and discovered that New York State has joined the ranks of six others in recognizing the civil rights regarding marriage of its citizens. Wow.
The event provided me with a timely inspiration. I was planning to attend a DVAA "Arts Alive" garden party at the Cutting Garden in Youngsville (www.thecuttinggarden.org [4]). The garden and hosts were lovely, as was the fundraiser, but the "Garden Hat Contest" had me perplexed. I knew I wanted to participate, but how?
After hearing the news, I knew how. I got out my glue gun, a toy lumberjack (they're not dolls—they're action figures), a tube of glitter and a miniature rainbow flag (basic household staples, In My Homosexual Opinion) and went to town. Inspired by the design lunacy of local legend Ramona Jan (www.ramonajan.com [5]), I glued and glittered my way to a prize at the party, while announcing (yeah, it was a big secret until that moment) to the world at large (and the ladies playing croquet) my own brand of gay pride.
Naturally, my fabulous hat sparked conversation. Many of us were very much around in 1969 when the revolution (it's been a long, winding road) began at the Stonewall Inn in NYC. The Internet provided some background for me: "The Stonewall riots were a series of spontaneous, violent demonstrations against a police raid that took place in the early morning hours of June 28, 1969, at the Stonewall Inn, in the Greenwich Village neighborhood of New York City. They are frequently cited as the first instance in American history when people in the homosexual community fought back against a government-sponsored system that persecuted sexual minorities, and they have become the defining event that marked the start of the gay rights movement in the United States and around the world."
Thrilled that I'll always have my incredibly macho hat to commemorate the event, I toasted New York along with the others, and hearing no whispers of dissent in the garden, moved on, silently praying that other states will join the ranks, while making a mental note to find someone to propose to. Positive that wedding invitations would begin flooding the mailbox, I decided (always a bridesmaid... ) to have a good attitude about my love life and celebrate that, if nothing else, it's legal!
Even though the hat was still in the truck, I thought better of wearing it to the NACL Theatre (www.nacl.org [6]) in Highland Lake, NY (which is in an old church… hmmm) where they were celebrating their own moment—the commencement of the theatre's 11th season with "Darwinii-The Comeuppance of Man" (www.nightjarapothecary.net/darwinii [7]), conceived and directed by Glen Berger and Brett Keyser.
The one-man show was riveting, amusing and deep-thought provoking, and the NACL performance space was transformed into a "Charles Darwin Experience" that, quite simply, blew me away. Berger and Keyser have impressive credentials, and I was impressed accordingly. I left the theatre with a strong desire to read everything Darwin wrote and see everything the NACL has to offer throughout the season, which promises to be stellar.
I may not be getting married in the morning, but have a good idea of where the ceremony and reception should take place, having enriched my soul with beautiful gardens, envisioning a great jazz trio playing in a magical space where anything can happen, and the confidence that New York will stand by me, whatever comes my way.

Weinberger's Schwanda the Bagpiper in Dresden(September 2012)
Weinberger's operas are enjoying a revival, with a major Dresden staging of Schwanda the Bagpiper, and Wallenstein at the Konzerthaus in Vienna.
"Schwanda lives again" wrote the Frankfurter Rundschau of the major revival in March of Jaromir Weinberger's stagework at the Dresden Semperoper, described as "a reawakening of a sumptuous, immensely accomplished opera". This "hellishly good premiere" (Das Bild) was the latest step in the rehabilitation of one of the hits of the 1920s, following a production at the Wexford Opera Festival in 2003 which was also released on CD by Naxos, and recent stagings in smaller German houses including Augsburg and Görlitz. The new Dresden Schwanda by Axel Köhler put the opera back on a major stage, winning new friends to its unique blend of folk tradition and modern theatrical verve.
"One of the craziest scores in operatic history: brimming with melodies, scrambled with anarchic counterpoint, raucous and blissfully operetta-like, virtuoso and naïvely showy. Jaromír Weinberger's Schwanda the Bagpiper was a sensational success in the late 1920s, making the rounds through theatres all over the world. Was it possible back then to gauge the uniqueness of this musical language which lifted the genre of popular opera to almost absurd heights? Czech folklore, both raised and at the same time repressed, as an illusion and as a 'broadband' vision; the dance and folksong characters kaleidoscopically rolled together and peppered with modern nervosity, and at the same time always in the mysterious undertow of a lyrical, catchy theme tune (in 3/4 time) – as in a classic movie score." Frankfurter Rundschau
The Weinberger reappraisal has also embraced his operatic version of Schiller's Wallenstein trilogy, including its first modern staging in Altenberg-Gera in 2009 and a concert performance this June at the Konzerthaus in Vienna, with plans for a recording to be released next year. The opera was premiered in 1937 in Vienna, but further performances were thwarted by the Nazi rise to power and Weinberger and his wife fled to Florida. ConcertoNet, reviewing the Vienna performance, noted how "this Czech composer seemed all his life to have been at the wrong place at the wrong time".
"Written 10 years after Schwanda, Wallenstein offers considerably richer musical content. The score is densely crafted… There are but few references to Weinberger's Bohemian heritage, and more to the late works of Richard Strauss and Alexander Zemlinsky. Strictly tonal, Weinberger uses a rich harmonic language, with original chord progressions… A revival long overdue."

A recent article in FierceEMR written by Marla Durben Hirsch quotes Dr. Peel about the dangers of cloud technology being used in healthcare. Dr. Peel tells FierceEMR that "There's a lot of ignorance regarding safety and privacy of these [cloud] technologies".
Here are a few key quotes from the story:
"It's surely no safe haven for patient information; to the contrary it is especially vulnerable to security breaches. A lot of EHR vendors that offer cloud-based EHR systems don't take measures to keep patient data safe. Many of them don't think they have to comply with HIPAA's privacy and security rules, and many of their provider clients aren't requiring their vendors to do so." (Hirsch)
"Many providers have no idea where the vendor is hosting the providers' patient data. It could be housed in a different state; or even outside of the country, leaving it even more vulnerable. 'If the cloud vendor won't tell you where the information is, walk out the door,' Peel says."
"Then there's the problem of what happens to your data when your contract with the cloud vendor ends. Providers don't pay attention to that when they sign their EHR contract, Peel warns."
"'The cloud can be a good place for health information if you have iron clad privacy and security protections,' Peel says. '[But] people shouldn't have to worry about their data wherever it's held.'"

Reservation-Based, Community-Determined Program: Rebuilding Native Nations-Strategies for Governance and Development (Muckleshoot)
Fall 2014, Winter 2015 and Spring 2015 quarters
Taught by
This upper division program teaches from a Native-based perspective within the context of the larger global society and is designed for students who have social, cultural or economic ties to tribes. The curriculum is built around three themes that rotate one per year. For 2014-2015 the theme is Rebuilding Native Nations: Strategies for Governance and Development.
In fall, students introduced to the major trends and issues in Tribal Administration, by comparing and contrasting different approaches to tribal management development and the factors contributing to successful nation building. During winter quarter, students will learn about Ethics for Tribal Vitality , which is an exploration of major ethical theories and their applications to a variety of current issues. Students will explore various Native perspectives on ethics and the ways in which they are manifest in contemporary Native America. Developing analytic skills and critical thinking are a key aspect of this course through, amongst other things, the analysis of cases studies on current issues in Indian communities. In spring, students will be enrolled in Profiles in Leadership , which explores leadership in both mainstream and tribal contexts; students will examine how political and social forces create leaders and make history.
There are five curricular elements of the program: Core Course, Integrated Skills, Strands, Integrated Seminar, and Independent Study. The Core Course, taught from a tribal perspective in a global community, is a nine-credit unit within the program taught at all sites at the same time with the same readings and assignments, but allows for faculty/student innovation and site specification. Integrated Skills, including critical thinking and analysis, research and writing, public speaking, collaboration, personal authority, and indigenous knowledge, are taught across the curriculum, integrated into all teaching and learning at the sites and at Saturday classes. Strands, another element, are two-credit courses taught on four Saturdays per quarter, which allow for breadth in the program and make it possible to invite professionals and experts in specific fields to offer courses that otherwise might not be available to students in the program. The Integrated Seminar held on the same four Saturdays as the Strands is called Battlegrounds, and is a one-credit workshop generally built around native case studies. The program also includes student initiated work through Independent Study.

text: My baby chokes every time my milk lets down. I have tried different holds and positions but it still happens. He is swallowing excessive air as a result and having terrible stomach pains. I was told that pumping prior to nursing until after let down is achieved would help but I have not been able to hand express for that to happen and do not own a pump. Also, the baby is still nursing quite frequently, sometimes every 20-30 minutes which doesn't really leave me much time to pump at all. Also, if he has to wait even a minute to nurse from first giving his "signs" that he's hungry, he becomes very aggresive when latching on. Is pumping a good idea in this scenario? Any other suggestions are greatly appreciated as well. Thank you in advance!

Eh, I have a friend of a friend whose nickname is Grandpa, just because he's grouchy. Maybe Stipe is just a big old grump. I could see it. Or maybe he's a weirdo – I could also see that. I totally don't care, btw; he now and forever will be a cool cat in my book.ReplyCancel

My Trip to Dutchess Stadium
The Renegades Game on Sunday
My Dad's friend had 4 tickets to Sunday's Hudson Valley Renegades game that he couldn't use, so he gave them to us for free. Sunday was really bad weather, though. It was raining all day. The game was scheduled for 5:05. At around 4, the sun came out and it looked like the rest of the rain would hold up. My Mom asked me and my little brother Tommy to decide if we should go, and we wanted to, but we weren't sure if we would get stuck in the rain. While we were deciding what to do, the lights went out. Another blackout! That was like the 3rd of the week! Then right away we decided to go, because being out in the rain is better than sitting in a dark house with no power. My older brother and my Dad stayed home with our old Lab, Jesse. He is arthritic and can't get around by himself, so he needs someone with him all the time.
We got to Dutchess Stadium nice and early. The field was still wet in some parts, and they said the game was postponed until 6. That was annoying. My Mom asked if we should go back, but I didn't want to sit around in a blackout, so we stayed. 6:00 rolled around, and the field still wasn't ready. All this time, I just watched the Renegades and the Cyclones warm up. They are all so cute! Everyone on the Single A teams wears high socks on the uniforms, and they all look so cute.
Here's Dutchess Stadium. It's a pretty park.
All the trees make a pretty batter's eye.
During the delay, there were Renegades signing autographs for free. It was nice; they stayed out there for a good while signing everything. Me and Tommy went over to get the starting pitcher to sign out tickets, but as soon as we went over, he went in the dugout. We didn't get anything signed.
That's the Gade's starting pitcher. Isn't he cute?
The game finally started, and it was a pitcher's duel. After the third inning, the announcer came on and said anyone you stayed through the hour and a half rain delay is getting their tickets renewed. That made us so happy. Not one free game, but 2! We are going to try to get tickets for this Sunday's game.
The Renegade's pitcher gave up a run first. But the Renegades struck back with 3 runs to take a 3-1 lead! These are the Rays of the future, and they looked pretty good. The Cyclones are the baby Mets, so I was definetely rooting for the Gades, and they are our local team. After the Gades's big inning, it was getting dark, so we decided to leave. If the game had started on time, it would've been over by the time we left. But my Mom has trouble driving in the dark, so we left. The rest of the game was televised on a local channel, so we finished watching it at home. The Renegades wound up losing to the Cyclones, 5-3. Both teams played well.
He had the hit that tied the game at 1. He was the catcher.
This little cutie hit in the go-ahead runs for the Gades.
Single A baseball games are a lot of fun. I have actually seen some of the Gades make it to the majors. One time we went and got a baseball signed by Fernando Perez, and he made it to the bigs as a Ray! Longoria also started out as a Gade. You never know who will be the next superstar.

my hometown team, the mahoning valley scrappers play in the new york penn league with the renegades. its a nice looking ballpark, alot like the scrappers. glad you had fun. i like minor league baseball sometimes, but id much rather spend my money at an MLB park
Califano? lol Sounds Italian. I thought you were a countreh gal from down south… what happened to that?
Anyways, let's pray we can do to Roy Halladay tonight what we did to him the last time he faced us…
*no I didn't count the spaces, so don't even guess lol*
I can't believe you went to the Renegades game! I guess I wrote about them before you joined MLBlogs. They had a promotion last month celebrating women in baseball, and Jean Afterman, the assistant GM of the Yankees, threw out the first pitch. They also featured me and my book on the scoreboard. They're a really fun organization.
Hey and speaking of Hudson Valley how far is that from Peekskill? My roomate is from Peekeskill and always talks about that Renegades and how they're better than my Scrappers. Just wondered if you were familiar with that town
Thats cool that you got to go to a Renegades game, I guess that must a girl thing to grade the players on there cuteness, my wife does it all the time… blackouts suck though…
Haha, well we don't have any Chinese teachers at my school, so it'd be a lawsuit if anybody cracked a Chinese joke at me…
-EJ ze Dork from New York (rhymes)
I don't know when they're gonna do the top 100 blogs but yours is probably going to be at the top, you get tons of comments all the time… I think they're only doing top 70 or top 50 nowadays, I think it'd be really sweet if I can chart in those, considering that the last top 100 blogs list I was like, 97th. lol but thanks to you, I'm getting a lot of comments now(mainly from you), so muchas gracias, senorita.
-LeAnn Rimes
Hey! Go Renegades. Of course, they are an affiliate of my Rays, so that's cool you got to see them! I have seen them play a few times (have an old dusty hat to prove it) but they were not a Rays team back then. In fact, I have no idea who they were connected with. Hopefully the Rays can take down the Sox tonight and make us both happy!
Hey girl! Looks like you guys have the Jays number tonight. Unless some miracle happens… oh wait, Mo just came into the game. Nevermind! Congrats on the win! We're down 2-1 to the Sox right now in the 7th.
What a beautiul park!! So green. And like I always say, what's rain?
*That's awesome that you made it to a Renegades game. It's wild to even hear about the Renegades on a giant website like this… I only live about 20 minutes away from Dutchess Stadium, and a friend of mine is eager to tryout for Hudson Valley when he can. Did you know that Ryan Dempster, AND Evan Longoria actually played for the Renegades at one point in time? I gotta' make it to a game soon, (considering Yankee games cost about $1000 now.)

-Brief introductions in each technical section give readers a hint about what they are going to encounter, while summaries list the most important ideas.
-In addition to examples using current data, some elementary concepts of probability are illustrated by famous examples such as the birthday problem, the tennis tournament problem, the matching problem, and the collector's problem.
-Special features include sections on Markov chains, the gambler's ruin problem, and utility and preferences among gamblers. These topics are presented in an elementary fashion and can be omitted without loss of continuity.
-Optional sections of the book are indicated by an asterisk in the Table of Contents.

My DD is 8 mos. old and is teething quite badly and so I have given her Hyland's teething tablets as well as an animal cracker to gum on. Since I have done this for one week now her poopy diapers have turned a shade of green with obvious white chunks in them, sorry about the details!
I do not know what to do. I'm still EBF her 8 times a day and she won't nurse with me sitting up. She only nurses with us both laying down on our bed. I'm very frustrated since I feel I can only leave the house for short amounts of time or I'll have to go straight home to feed her. I try to pump but my Avent manual pump is giving me nothing but problems and very little milk! :mad:
I'm very concerned about her diapers. My mother told me tonight she might not be able to digest food very well and that is why she is still just nursing. Should I call her doctor?
We've tried to feed her solid foods but she isn't really interested and when she does eat a little she usually ends up with bad gas. Ugh!
I need some advice, please!

The stunning Philippines in pictures
Rough Guides writer Kiki Deere shares some of her best photographs of the Philippines from her latest trip to Southeast Asia. Comprising 7107 islands, the …18 Dec 2015 • Kiki Deere insert_drive_file Article
A major new tourist destination located roughly halfway between Naga and Pili, CWC (t054/477-3344, wwww.cwcwake.com) is an international-standard wakeboarding course. There is a beginners' winch park, where you can practise standing up on a straight run, and it's also possible to use a kneeboard on the main course. The main course involves six turns and an assortment of ramps and rails for those who know what they are doing. Prices vary depending on what you want to do, for example P370 for half a day on the main course including rental of a beginner's wakeboard and other equipment.
Building something like this with taxpayers' money was certainly a gamble, but it seems to have paid off. Within a few years of opening CWC has helped CamSur to become second only to Boracay in terms of tourist arrivals, and international competitions are already being held here. There are ambitious plans for further development, including a golf course and mountain biking track. The complex already has a swimming lagoon and a small skatepark.
There is also a range of accommodation, from tiki huts (P1000–1499) and converted shipping containers (P1500–1999) to private villas (P5000–6999). Hardcore wakeboarders tend to favour the cabañas (P1500–1999) as they are right beside the cable park, while if you're on a tight budget you might try fan-cooled huts at the Ecovillage (P499 and under), which is a little further from the action. The site also has a bar (3pm–7am) and a café (6am–midnight). There is wi-fi on site and in some of the rooms.
CWC is located within the Provincial Capitol complex in Pili. From Naga, take a bus or jeepney to the Capitol Junction (15min from the main terminal; P10) then a tricycle (10min; P10). Alternatively there are shuttles running from the SM City mall and along Magsaysay Avenue – contact CWC for the current timetable. From the airport, a tricycle will charge you a rather steep P150.

I was wondering if anybody knows whether the mirena iud could affect milk supply?
I was wondering if anybody knows whether the mirena iud could affect milk supply?
Jenn SAHM and carseat to
DD 5 years old , nursed till just shy of 3 yrs old
Good question. I wonder that, too.
My understanding it's like the mini-pill but even less hormones. It doesn't have estrogen so it's not "supposed" to mess with supply. But antecdotaly, I've heard women say that any hormonal bc can hurt supply.
Anyone have experience w/ Mirena?
Tree-hugging, queer-loving, liberal, feminist Mommy to L August 2006
According to Hale's 2006 Medications and Mother's Milk:
Lovonorgestrel (the active progestin in the Mirena IUD) is an L2 (out of L1-L5) which is considered "safer". To quote Hale "From several studies, levonorgestrel appears to prodce limited if any effect on milk volume or quality. The data from the levonorgestrel-only IUDs suggests minimal to no effect on BF." Hale states that it is the estrogen in the BC that causes supply issues sometimes.

Child Lures Prevention
Has Your School Implemented Child Lures Prevention Program yet?
Illinois State Board of Education is a proud partner of the Child Lures Prevention Initiative, a first-ever statewide effort to help safeguard students from predatory crimes.
A Child Lures School Program kit has already been sent (free
of charge) to all 3220 Illinois public elementary and middle
schools. It is a turn-key program, complete with two videos,
one to prepare teachers to present the program, and one to
present to children, along with a Presenter's Guide
and one copy of the Child Lures Parent Guide.
We encourage implementation of this personal safety program within your health curriculum, school assembly programs or in whatever way best suits your school. Should you have questions regarding the program, please visit http://www.childluresprevention.com/ for information. While visiting this site, please note that free School Program Posters are also available for download to print and display throughout your classrooms.
The Child Lures Prevention Initiative received statewide attention during an NBC5 Town Hall Meeting Telecast: "Smart Choices/Safe Kids" which features Child Lures Prevention creator, Kenneth Wooden demonstrating the lures most commonly used by predators, as well as families who have had experiences with sexual predators.
The 45 minute commercial-free "Smart Choices/Safe Kids" can be found on your School Program's Student Video, "Luring: What Would You Do?." You are welcome to show "Smart Choices/Safe Kids" to students, parents and staff as often as you'd like.
Program creator Ken Wooden states, "As an educator, I feel it is imperative to give children a perspective on personal safety which is both balanced and accurate. Child Lures Prevention does this with two messages. The first and most powerful message is that the vast majority of people are loving and caring and committed to the safety of all children. The second message is that there are some people, a small but active group, that try to lure young people into dangerous and abusive situations by using lures, but by teaching the various lures and prevention strategies, students can learn how to think first and stay safe."
Additional partners of the Child Lures Prevention Initiative include Illinois Principals Association, IL Department of Children and Family Services, Illinois State Police, IL Department of Human Services and Illinois Violence Prevention Authority on the Child Lures Prevention Initiative.
*Funding from the Illinois State Police was provided, in part, by grant # 2003-DB-BX-0037, awarded by the Bureau of Justice Assistance, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice, through the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority.

Is it always best to wait until 6 months until introducing solids? I know it's not necessary to give baby anything other than breastmilk until then but I am wondering because my baby is poor at milk removal. My LC said when she gets the hang of solids might be when I can give up pumping and just let her nurse for her (currently gets 10-11 oz/day right from me and then the rest is pumped and bottled).
That makes it tempting to me to want to introduce solids a little early. However, if it is not best for her then I truly don't mind keeping at this another few months. She's only almost 12 weeks now so it's a ways off in any case but I am just thinking. Any thoughts or advice?

Stock Quill Brand standard series ruled pads with wide ruling to give your employees plenty of scratch paper. With a sturdy chipboard back and smooth paper, the pen sails across the sheets as your employees furiously take notes or jot down their ideas for their latest projects.
Computers handle the bulk of the work in most offices, but there's still a need for old-fashioned pen and paper. Notes from a meeting, a to-do list, a brainstorming session on an upcoming project - these situations and more call for a pad of paper for handwritten notes. Quill Brand pads are 100 percent groundwood free. They have an extra-smooth finish, so pencil lead and pen ink glides easily along the surface, eliminating the annoying skipping or inconsistent writing lines that sometimes occur. The 16-pound paper is thin enough to easily fold over the pad yet sturdy enough to avoid tearing with regular use, and the bright canary color makes the pad easy to spot in a stack of papers and files.
Each pad features a sturdy, 28-pt. chipboard back to create a firm base for the note pad. Even when an employee isn't sitting at a desk or table, the pad provides built-in support so writing is still possible. With only 50 sheets each, the pads are lightweight and thin, making them easy to slip in a bag or carry by hand for meetings on the go. Need to leave notes behind? Tear out pages from the pads cleanly and easily, thanks to the micro-perforation along the top edge of the sheets.

Snow Days
The amaryllis bulb from Christmas is beginning to bloom, bringing a little brightness and green to my windowsill, but outside the snow is coming down fast. John and Sam are out shoveling and we are in the middle of a predicted three-day storm that has extended the three-day weekend from school that my kids already had to four days—and counting.
We may have dodged the trend of coastal storms that have dumped on New York City and Boston, but still it was a long January. And, at this rate, all bets are off on how long the school spring vacation will actually be—with "snow days" falling like the dominos that my kids line up across the book shelves and down the stairs in all their new-found free time.
In my house there is always something of a contest (a little like the Red Sox vs. the Yankees) over who will have off from school when the roads are bad. We have to explain over and over again that Sullivan West School District, where my husband John works, is just plain bigger than the Hancock School District, where we live and our kids go to school.
It is a very long and drama-filled two hours when Hancock has only a two-hour delay but Sullivan West is cancelled for the day—as is more often the case. Such injustice is met with much complaint directed at the running alphabetical list of cancellations at the top of the television screen.
But all this angst is nothing to compare to the glee of a full day off to fill with sledding, Monopoly or movies (provided the power stays on) and time to eat icicles and snow drizzled with maple syrup. Not to mention a fair amount of time for bickering and boredom.
This week, the added time off is welcome, as we are getting ready for 4-H public presentations. This annual event is dedicated to promoting public speaking. County 4-H members give a demonstration or present an illustrated talk on a topic of their choice for a judge. I've seen a lot through the years—on jellyfish, on puppies, on pest insects and "how to fry an egg." Then there is the classic and ever-popular illustrated talk, "Parts of a Horse." This year my son plans to talk about beavers and my daughter is practicing a comic demonstration on how to fold a paper "cootie catcher"—the ubiquitous origami fortune tellers of elementary school students. Those are the same students who say that the trick to getting a day off from school is to wear your pajamas inside out with white socks to bed. (Will someone else please tell those kids to knock it off!)
