Click HERE to read a note from Hayley Williams of Paramore from the Official Paramore In The Studio Tumblr.
Over the last four years or so, Paramore got busier and spent more time working on tour than we did at home. I sort of forgot how much I loved, even needed, my alone time. But the past year, being as "slow" as it was… I was able to sort of refocus all that nervous, busy energy and learn once again how nice a night-in can be.

Meeting Ike Davis
First off I would like to apologize, it is the off season, so I am taking most of the winter off. But about a month ago, I had a fortunate experience and I was able to meet Mets first baseman Ike Davis. It was on December 18, 2010.

Taking note of othersDecember 13,2013
This is a very difficult time of year for many Vermonters. The holidays serve as both a pressure point and a painful reminder of certain difficulties. And winter, by virtue of its challenges, can take a toll on pocketbooks and emotions.
That difficulty can turn to thoughts of hopelessness and suicide. Over the last year, too many central Vermonters have been affected by the suicide of a family member or friend. They have been decorated war veterans, adults and the elderly. They have been neighbors and colleagues. Just this week, a local high school student took his life, reminding us once again of the fragility of life at any age.
In a tragic statistical uptick, there have been more reported incidents of domestic violence ending in murder-suicides across Vermont.
It makes the heart ache to learn about these tragedies within our small towns. The ripple effects touch many lives, and, when it is someone we know, we often think back on whether there were signs of struggle. In the wake, we blame ourselves for not communicating better, doing more, seeing the signs.
As a society, we really do not talk about suicide, and we need to.
According to officials at Washington County Mental Health Services, the agencys 24/7 hotline receives up to 16,000 calls a year. These central Vermonters are reaching out for help, or seeking help for someone the caller knows. That is as it should be. That number is staggering. The hotline and mental health services clearly are necessary.
According to a report looking at the states statistics from 2012, there were 83 suicides in Vermont. Of those people, two were minors. (In the last 12 months, five teens have committed suicide in central Vermont alone.) The state average is 85 suicides a year.
A 2005 benchmark report titled The Vermont Suicide Prevention Platform said the state average at that time was 78. Clearly, the last few years have been a struggle.
Suicide is the eighth leading cause of death in Vermont and the 10th leading cause in the United States, according to the National Institute for Mental Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
That is sobering news. What it means is that we need to take suicide prevention seriously. As a community, we need to remove the stigma.
There are signs. If an individual speaks of being hopeless or exhibits changes in behavior or moods; if a person starts to act recklessly or engage in risky behavior or starts abusing drugs or alcohol; and if a person seems to be withdrawing from family and friends, talk to that person, or call for help.
If symptoms become more emergent, if the person makes the statement about wanting to commit suicide, if they seek access to a means, if they say they are thinking about suicide, or if they use a computer, phone or Facebook to drop hints, if they have a plan or start giving things away, get help immediately.
There is a commonly held and mistaken myth that people who threaten suicide wont do it. Every case needs to be taken as seriously as the next.
Of course, prevention is one thing. Grief after a suicide is another that needs attention and care.
When a suicide occurs, theres also lots of help. Family and friends are urged to reach out to one another and talk. Seek grief counselors offered locally by Central Vermont Home Health and Hospice (223-1878) and Washington County Mental Health Services (229-0591).
It is not a time to focus on assigning self-blame or feeling guilty. It is more important to learn and look for the signs so we, as a community, can continue to prevent suicide. Paying close attention to one another family, friends, neighbors and colleagues and talking about those things around us that give our lives quality allow us to help those who are struggling, especially during the holidays and stark winter months.
The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline toll-free number, 800-273-TALK (8255), which is available 24/7, can be used anywhere in the United States and connects the caller to a certified crisis center near where the call is placed. The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline website is www.suicidepreventionlifeline.org.
Locally, for help call Washington County Mental Health Services at 229-0591 or, in Orange County, the Clara Martin Suicide Hotline at (800) 639-6360.

This print started out as a baseball card more than twenty years ago. Every aspect of it is designed to preserve the original look and feel of the card, from the printing pattern to the slightly worn edges. In fact, this print started by finding the actual card in our vault and then painstakingly re-mastering it with a team of designers. The authenticity extends to manufacturing; each print is made on high-quality, cotton fine art paper that measures 1/64 inches in thickness. Framed prints feature 2-inch flat wood or metallic frames with high-end, glare-resistant glass. And all prints are officially licensed by MLB and the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

VA official sees innovations at Vt hospitalBy WILSON RING
The Associated Press | December 20,2013WHITE RIVER JUNCTION A number of programs developed in Vermont to help veterans cope with post-traumatic stress disorder are now being used throughout the Department of Veterans Affairs hospital network.
Some programs are also in use by civilian treatment providers, a top VA official said Thursday.
The VA Medical Center in White River Junction, which treats veterans from Vermont and parts of New Hampshire, has also developed programs that help rural veterans who live far from the hospital, said VA Assistant Secretary Tommy Sowers after touring the hospital and the adjacent National Center for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Ive seen a level of technology adoption here that I have not seen anywhere else, Sowers said.
He was given a demonstration of a locally developed app, called the PTSD Coach, which offers online tools to help users screen themselves for PTSD and provides techniques for dealing with stress.
Sowers visited the inpatient substance abuse treatment area, where many of the patients are also suffering from PTSD, and other sections of the hospital that focus on traditional medical care for veterans.
He also spoke via a telemedicine hookup with a veteran undergoing physical therapy in his home about two hours away from the hospital while he conducted exercises with a VA therapist.
The PTSD Coach smartphone app has been downloaded more than 100,000 times in 78 countries since its release in 2011, and the PTSD Coach Online, released in September, had 25,000 page views in October, officials said.
The center has surveyed veterans and active duty military personnel who have used the applications to see if they work.
The bottom line, in terms of outcomes, is we have found really nice, robust, positive effects, said Barbara Hermann, the centers associate director for research and education.
Dr. E. Lanier Summerall, the psychiatrist in charge of the mental health and behavioral sciences section, said after meeting Sowers that even though the U.S. war in Iraq is over and the war in Afghanistan is winding down, many veterans are just beginning to seek services for PTSD.
She even hears of difficult combat situations from different service members who experienced the same event, frequently as part of Vermont National Guard deployments.
Vermont National Guard members experienced intense combat during a 2005-06 deployment to Ramadi, Iraq, or during a larger, more recent deployment to Afghanistan.
Sometimes it does take a couple of years for people to recognize that they cant handle the difficulties they are experiencing by themselves, Summerall said. So actually we still see new veterans from those deployments every day.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER A new report from a commission that studied the cost, availability and quality of...

Man charged with felony child abuse
MARTINSBURG – A Berkeley County man accused of breaking a 10-year-old boy's clavicle last month, allegedly because he was angry when the child threw up, was arraigned Thursday evening on a felony warrant charging him with child abuse resulting in injury.
Mitchell Dewayne Snow, 39, of Stewart Avenue, Martinsburg, was later released from custody after posting $30,000 bail.
According to court records, on March 27, police were notified by Jefferson County Child Protective Services that the victim had been admitted to the emergency room at Jefferson Memorial Hospital for a broken left clavicle, sometimes called the collarbone.
CPS told police that the victim had disclosed to school officials at his elementary school that his left shoulder was hurting, and that he was injured as the result of being shoved by his mother's fiance, later identified as Snow.
The child was subsequently taken to the hospital to be examined. When CPS arrived at the hospital, the victim told them that Snow had repeatedly shoved him against a shower wall the night of March 26. He said Snow shoved him against the wall because he was angry with him for vomiting in the kitchen that same evening, records show.
It was discovered that the crime occurred at Snow's residence near Martinsburg in Berkeley County.
A forensic interview was later conducted with the victim and he "provided a full disclosure concerning the injury" and a past history of physical abuse by Snow. In a statement obtained by police, the victim's mother admitted to being physically abused on numerous occasions by Snow; however, she was not present in the home when Snow shoved the victim, records show.
If convicted of child abuse resulting in injury, Snow faces a maximum of one to five years in prison and a fine of up to $1,000, or, at the discretion of the court, up to a year in jail.

The plan has been lauded as a way to help the down-and-out turn over a new leaf and remake themselves into upstanding, contributing members of society. The catch: the old prison sits in close proximity to residential, neighborhood streets.
The creation of a homeless shelter, halfway house and possibly a soup kitchen could attract a population of transients with less-than-stellar pasts, congregating and loitering in the residential neighborhoods around the old prison site.
Opinions among residents of the area are mixed, according to a random door-to-door survey of residents this week.
Some residents expressed reservations about living near such facilities. That was especially true for the halfway house, which offers rehabilitation services to a demographic some might see as threatening, from those facing substance abuse and mental health issues to former inmates.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs a concern,ŌĆØ said Stephanie Jensen, 44, who lives in the vicinity.
While she acknowledged the good intentions of such social service programs ŌĆö studies have shown that in general, the recidivism rate for released inmates who seek some form of counseling is significantly lower than that of those who do not ŌĆö she pointed out that the old prison is across the street from a bar, which she feared might pose a temptation for some at halfway house who are struggling with alcohol addiction.
Others appeared less wary. The population served by a homeless shelter or soup kitchen are unfairly maligned and may simply be down on their luck as a result of life circumstances, said Catherine Greene, a retiree.
ŌĆ£Not all of them are dangerous,ŌĆØ said Greene, standing at the doorway of her Hemlock Street home across the street from the old prison.
Many of the nearly dozen residents interviewed for this article over the past week were well aware of the plans by faith-based groups to put the no-longer-used prison to use. How neighbors reacted to the prospect of such facilities was, of course, a matter of perception.
Take Jack Schmidt, for example, who was stopped on the street while walking home from work. Although he was unaware of plans to reuse part of the old prison, he appeared to embrace the thought of a homeless shelter and halfway house opening down the street from where he lives.
ŌĆ£I think itŌĆÖs a great idea,ŌĆØ said Schmidt, 23, who works at a nearby trade school. He recalled a recent conversation among co-workers about the rugged lifestyle homeless people face, trying to imagine what it would feel like to go without shelter for long periods particularly during winter months. ŌĆ£Sometimes thereŌĆÖs no place for them to stay.ŌĆØ
But another nearby resident, R.L. Henderson, isnŌĆÖt comfortable with his neighborhood becoming a hangout for those frequenting the soup kitchen, homeless shelter or halfway house.
ŌĆ£If we let them roam, that would be a concern,ŌĆØ said Henderson, who is retired.
While he has long lived across the street from the old minimum-security prison, Henderson has always felt safe.
ŌĆ£IŌĆÖve never locked my doors,ŌĆØ he said. Prisons are designed to keep people in, and they donŌĆÖt come and go.
Asked if he might use the locks if the plans for a shelter and halfway house go through, he replied, ŌĆ£Yeah.ŌĆØ
Leaders of the faith-based groups are aware of such concerns.
They expect they would hire some kind of security presence, particularly after nightfall, and work closely with the county sheriffŌĆÖs office, which is within sight of the old prison. In the meantime, they are quick to offer assurances.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs going to be safe,ŌĆØ said Jason Ledford, president of Next Step Ministry, which would manage the halfway house. ŌĆ£IŌĆÖm confident that it will work out.ŌĆØ
The halfway house would operate less as a safety net and more as a supportive service, offering education resources including computer and GED preparation classes as part of a requirement that its clients, currently male-ex offenders, pursue long-term plans to find a job and recover from any addiction.
ŌĆ£Most of these people are looking for a new life ŌĆ" looking for a hand up, not a handout,ŌĆØ said Ledford, who formed a counseling program in the county jail last summer.
Rev. Nick Honerkamp, the founder and director of Haywood Christian Emergency Shelter, said itŌĆÖs the same for his clients, who have ŌĆ£personal growth plansŌĆØ and will participate in rehabilitation programs for much of the day.
ŌĆ£TheyŌĆÖre not going to be idle,ŌĆØ he said. The existing shelter, housed at a summer camp, only operates during winter months. It houses an average of 80 people on-and-off in the fall and winter months and since opening in 2008, it has seen ŌĆ£very few incidents,ŌĆØ Honerkamp said. It has a security guard on shift at all times and has a zero-tolerance policy on drugs and alcohol, including urine test and breathilizers for those staying at the shelter. Moving into the old prison would enable the shelter to operate year-round.
Despite the concerns, Honerkamp said he believes the groups will draw support.
ŌĆ£The mountain people here are so gracious and so kind,ŌĆØ said Honerkamp, who has lived in the area for the past 35 years. ŌĆ£ThereŌĆÖs a lot of people who like to help.ŌĆØ

^ From the Yahoo forums.theres an article that states that there is concern that bynum has a degenerative knee condition, meaning that his knees will never fully recover to previous levels. brandon roy has had similar issues with his knees, although it seems that bynum's condition is not as serious. the article goes on to say that he should be able to be a productive player in stretches, but may not be able to maintain his numbers from last season with the lakers over the course of a full season.
I see that draft picks are starting to be bandied around as trade bait.
Guys you can't use picks as an incentive. That requires that we have almost exactly the same people in the league next year and we already know at least 4 people who won't be in it, let alone other people who may drop out.
I didn't play Kanter and he put up 55.5 points fkc me in the ass
Glad I made that Tony Parker trade right about now..
Yeah, my team is beasting this week, new pick-ups doing their job, role players not disappointing.
Has anyone ever drafted his picks in this league?
lol, interesting post, I love reading this thread.

Hhahahaha well, I know that one already, would put it in the same pedestal together with this one, Disembowelment's debut and MDB's debut. Not to mention that PL's debut was released a couple of years before all those albums except Winter which came out the same year so I don't get how this album got underrated considering how it was during that time.
Written by Mr. Doctor on 07.01.2012 at 15:23
Wait wut? That seems like a really lousy argument, dude. Wouldn't like... I dunno, most (if not all) releases from the 90s or 80s or pretty much any decade sound outdated and not outstanding at all if released after? Case in point all the revival movements. You are really not explaining your point with that.
Needless to say I disagree with you, I'm yet to find a death/doom release that has this quality in the songs, from the atmosphere and songwriting. If you know any then please be my guest and tell me more tell me more does he have a car?
Also: Nah, Gothic is a good album but it has some fillers here and there during the entire record. In some aspects it's clearly inferior to Lost Paradise, case in point: Holmes vocals, it was clear that the dude had no future when it comes to growl, they started to sound a bit weakin Gothic and went downhill since then. Plus, the female vocals and keyboards was hit or miss most of the time. The production was pretty light to my ears as well, lacked some meat in the sound so to speak. Mid 7 to low 8 material.
Written by Slayer666 on 08.01.2012 at 15:26

i didn't bother with that because I took it for granted... It's not like it's the first person who says "it's good but not that much but still a masterpiece"
Written by NocturnalStalker on 05.03.2012 at 16:28
This is a fine debut album for a great band. It's very gloomy and harsh and that's why I like it. Though, I still prefer Gothic and Shades Of God.
Written by Erik M. on 02.12.2012 at 00:12I just don't like to listen to rock music.
Written by Mr. Doctor on 02.12.2012 at 00:25
Huh, to me they were still metal enough on Draconian Times. Very light metal but metal nonetheless.
Written by Erik M. on 02.12.2012 at 00:35In my opinion, Icon and Draconian Times are extremely overrated, but that's not important for now.
Written by Mr. Doctor on 02.12.2012 at 00:38
Not as overrated as Gothic tbh... That is THE overrated Paradise Lost album imo. Still wonder why I like this debut so much but find Gothic so meh at times.
Written by Erik M. on 02.12.2012 at 00:49What do you think of Shades of God?
Written by Mr. Doctor on 02.12.2012 at 00:57
Shades Of God is actually just a tiny bit behind Lost Paradise when it comes to my favorite PL albums. Love the longer songs and the riffs are fantastic there. More of a traditional heavy metal twist to their death/doom formula back in those days but still very creative. There's also a slight bit of thrash thrown on the riffs that I appreciate a lot. Draconian Times would probably be very close to Shades of God in the third place. Basically my top 3 is very close and completely different to each other which is cool since they all together cover the different aspects I admire from their classic period.
Written by Daggon on 10.04.2014 at 00:56
By far, their best release, I can't understand why most people think they are better playing Gothic metal...

Help Protect Our Streams
Montgomery County is vibrant and diverse with a variety of activities for all. With over 1,500 miles of streams in the County, recreational opportunities are abundant. All of us play a role in ensuring that our communities and streams continue to thrive.
Can you imagine what would happen if each and every one of the more than 1 million County residents pledged to do one thing to help our local streams? You don't necessarily need to spend extra money or time--the key is planning ahead and determining how to change your habits to make a difference.
Small actions such as planting native plants in our gardens or volunteering with a local watershed group can have positive and long-lasting impacts on our streams and watersheds! Take advantage of the host of opportunities listed on the links to the right.
Stream Stewards Volunteer Program
As a Stream Steward you will help educate County residents on the importance of their habits to the health of local rivers and streams.
Stream Stewards are active year round throughout the County. They provide assistance to several DEP programs including the RainScapes, Green Streets and the Stormwater Facility Maintenance Program. Stream Stewards serve as a voice for DEP so that County residents can feel empowered and educated on environmental issues.
Participation in an orientation session is required in order to become a Stream Steward volunteer.
Benefits of Joining the Stream Stewards Program:
♦ Training with DEP outreach staff on environmental topics
♦ Service learning hours for students
♦ Flexible hours and events, including weekends and evenings
♦ A variety of projects, including tabling for events, hands-on service projects and office work
The following volunteer opportunities are available with the Stream Stewards Program:

Montgomery County is a new chapter in the nationwide FrogWatch USA program! Our chapter is an exciting new way for individuals and families to participate in citizen science and to learn more about amphibians and the wetlands they live in.
What is FrogWatch USA?
FrogWatch USA is a nation-wide volunteer frog and toad monitoring program run by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA). Volunteers are trained to identify frog and toad calls at a wetland site and to repbort their data online. Data is compiled and analyzed to develop conservation strategies for frog and toad species, and their habitat.
Interested in hearing frog and toad calls? Visit our Frogs and toads biology page.
Why are Frogs and Toads Important?
Frogs and toads are pollution sensitive organisms and are indicators of environmental health. Frogs and toads are both predators and prey, serving an important role in aquatic food webs. As predators, tadpoles help clean waterways by feeding on algae and adult frogs and toads feed on insects that can be pests and transmit diseases, such as mosquitoes. They also serve as a food source for many other organisms
Volunteer Commitments:
Montgomery County will provide two volunteer training sessions, one before the monitoring season and one during. Throughout the breeding season from February to August, we ask that you commit to monitoring a wetland site for a three minute period 30 minutes after sunset weekly. You have the option of monitoring a pre-registered site by the County or registering your own site.
Tell Me More!
Visit the County's official FrogWatch page to learn more about participating in the program and to view photos of frogs and toads.
The video below provides a great introduction to FrogWatch USA, the nationwide program that the County is a chapter of. Although the video focuses on the Cleveland chapter, it is a nice way to learn about citizen science and the basics of FrogWatch.
Caching the Rain Geocache Trail
Want to get out in the community, get some exercise, use your brain and help spread the word about stormwater? You should be geocaching!
Geocaching is when you use GPS devices to find hidden containers called "geocaches". Geocaches are hidden around the region, country and the world, by geocaching clubs, nonprofits and other institutions. Montgomery County DEP has joined the over 2 million geocaches worldwide by launching its first ever geocache program called Caching the Rain!
What is Caching the Rain?
Caching the Rain is a geotrail. A geotrail is a series of geocaches that are linked together by a common theme. The County's Caching the Rain geotrail is focused on stormwater awareness and there are 6 geocaches hidden in the County near stormwater management practices, such as ponds or bioretention facilities. It is the goal of the geocacher to find each of the geocaches on the trail.
Interested in Geocaching?
You can get started today! Learn more about geocaching and how to participate by visiting our Caching the Rain geotrail website at:
Additional Volunteer and Educational Opportunities
Watershed Groups
Local watershed groups are a great resource for volunteers. Montgomery County Watershed groups were created by everyday citizens. Each watershed groups' mission is to protect a local watershed located right here in Montgomery County.
Local watershed groups work in specific areas of the County to clean and maintain local rivers and streams. They educate communities on the importance of protecting local waters. In addition, they encourage everyone to adopt good practices to protect water quality.
Your involvement in any of these groups can range from a few hours to joining their board of directors; it is all up to you. Groups are always looking for volunteers to help with things such as stream clean-ups, invasive plant removal, storm drain marking, and many other activities. By becoming involved with a local watershed group you will learn more about your local waters.
Not sure which watershed you are located in, no problem, search for your neighborhood in our interactive watershed map and find out! Once you find your local watershed, explore your watershed group's website to see how you can help. If a group doesn't exist in your local watershed, create one!
Below you will find an alphabetical listing of watershed groups working to protect our streams:
The County has been assisting local watershed groups in capacity building efforts to help increase local outreach and education Learn more about this effort: Watershed Group Capacity Building project
Regional Nonprofits
In addition to watershed groups, there are numerous groups working to promote a healthy and vibrant environment right here in the County. Although their main mission may not specifically state that they protect our local streams, their work is very important in protecting our local streams.
Below you will find an alphabetical listing of some of these organizations:
Government Programs
Government programs also exist that help protect our local waters. You can participate in these programs by organizing a group of family and friends or by organizing an activity via one of the local groups in your area.
Adopt a Road
Montgomery County's Adopt A Road (AAR) program encourages residents and businesses in the County to participate in a community activity by keeping our roadsides litter free.
Currently there are more than 1,000 volunteers who have adopted over 350 road segments, cleaning over 600 miles of road in an effort to Keep Montgomery County Beautiful.
Storm Drain Marking
Storm drain markers help educate the public about our storm drain system. In Montgomery County the storm drains go directly into our rivers. Stormwater carries pollutants such as litter, pet waste, fertilizers, leaking autofluids, or anything that ends on the ground directly into our waterways through storm drains.
The storm drain markers are installed quickly and easily using permanent adhesive. Help change behavior by organizing a storm drain marking project. Get support from the County's Storm drain Marking Program to remind people that street litter flows directly into local waterways and organize your own storm drain marking event. Materials are provided via the Storm Drain Marking program.
M-NCPPC Volunteer Center (Montgomery Parks Volunteer Center)
The M-NCPPC volunteer center serves as a resource for volunteers interested in volunteering for Parks. The site allows you to explore volunteer opportunities, create and manage your own volunteer record, and apply for volunteer jobs via Parks.
In addition, the Montgomery County Volunteer Center provides a searchable database of volunteer opportunities available throughout Montgomery County. To find opportunities related to water protection, you can utilize key words that relate to your interest such as: environment, water, rivers, and streams.
Montgomery County GreenFest
The Montgomery County GreenFest is a family friendly event that provides a way to introduce and connect residents to their environment, local watershed associations, volunteerism, and green exhibitors.
A goal of the Montgomery County GreenFest is to raise awareness about stream health and the effects of stormwater pollution on our ecosystem. Most importantly, it encourages residents to get involved!
The next Montgomery County GreenFest is Saturday, April 30th, 2016 at the Takoma Park Community Center.

The RSBS Podcast, Episode 6: MLB's Chimeras… and Other Stuff
And so in this Podcast…
Jeff and his Cub-lovin' pal Johanna Mahmud put their heads together to find out what's wrong with Joe Buck's face… they also talk about a slew of other important stuff, including (but not limited to) Andre Dawson being a bad@ss, why everyone hates Cleveland, Pete Hill of the Negro Leagues, Matt Capps' ginormous noggin, the Lou
Piniella Mailbag and much,
much more… all to make you laughy time!
P.S. Language definitely rated R on this one. We let ourselves go a bit… but it's a lot of fun (trust us).

Another good shark-jumpin' podcast…but, the dirtiest? Um…
As for the split personality bit, it's tough. I find myself in the same boat: One personality as The Heirloom/MotorGeek/resedabear – all variations of the same online persona. Then, meet me in real life. It's not intentional, but accidental. Don't sweat it, Jeff!
Yeah, and when Keith has his Negro League project ready – pimp it out! I'm interested!
Awesome, Randy! We will definitely pimp it out. Stay tuned!
Let's see…Mom Hunt; Joe Buck is…; P. Fielders' and potato peelers? Sounds like a modern Chicago version of the Kenny Everette Show.
: o
I guess I am in the minority in life…I love Cleveland. The Warehouse District down in the flats is my third favorite bar location in the World compared to Amsterdam and Ybor City….And neither has had a water feature that has been on fire.
Andre Dawson is the definitely did not fit the prototype of his first name. I loved the way he called out the PED evil doers and might just pop on a set of dark blue tights and become an MLB Superhero. He would be a menacing foe, especially with MLB noe trolling the minors for HGH.
Rays Renegade
Mike — We do what we can… and you get points for the Everett reference.
RR — Nobody messes with the Hawk. Not then. Not now. Just ask Hanley.
Jane, I agree… you, I (and certainly Joba) aren't into the midges so much. Can't wait to see that flick!
I'm with Renegade on Cleveland and the Warehouse District. Not wild about the midges though. Really loved the movie talk about Inception. Not confusing? Every six seconds I was going, "What WAS that?" But definitely a "mind f*ck."

There are numerous treatment options available for those who suffer from an enlarged prostate. The treatment options range from medication to surgery.
According to the Mayo Clinic, the type of treatment needed depends on the severity of the condition and the patient's age, as well as what course of treatment the patient prefers to pursue.
The Mayo Clinic states that the most common treatment for an enlarged prostate is medication. Medications should be able to ease the symptoms for those with a moderate condition.
If the medications aren't effective, or if the symptoms are severe, a patient may need to consider surgery. Surgical procedures can range from minimally invasive to open surgery.

Welcome to you...oh NO, I was going to put a couple of letters as a short version of your name, and then I remembered your topic!! Speaking of blushing, we've gotten in the habit here of using asterisks to replace some of the letters in a word that we are offended by or are concerned might offend others; for ex., s**t.
Anyway, I think I'll copy to you what I just wrote for our other newcomer (since I don't know the origin myself, that is): Why don't you try going to Information and Announcements and looking in Max's Useful Language Links? I'm sure there are some word and phrase origin sites listed there.

If you stick your finger in the fan, do you end up with egg on your face?
BTW Jomama, there was a bluesy group with (almost, Jo Mama) the same name fronted by guitar player, Danny Kortchmar in 1970-71. He played on early James Taylor albums among other credits.

Thanks for the neat info, Owlbow, don't remember the group but I do like blues! There was also a dj in Miami, Joe Mama, who created a bit of a flap a few years back by announcing a Thanksgiving turkey giveaway. He proposed to toss live turkeys from a helicopter to his fans. He was going to buy the turkeys frm a Mr. Gobble, reportedly the real name of a poultry farmer in the area.
NO, it didn't happen. Safety and humane concerns prevailed.

Yes, I'm sure Joe Mama was inspired by that crazy episode from WKRP. Les Nesman's plan was completed, in fiction:

can take many forms. Sometimes it's a brand new idea – like the XD®.
Other times innovation is the fine-tuning of a classic – like the EMP®.
How could the enduring design that is the 1911 be improved?
Springfield Armory® answered that question in 2007 with the introduction
of the Enhanced Micro Pistol™. The EMP® changes what a compact 1911 can
The action of the EMP® is 1/8 inch shorter than that of the original
1911. This translates into several concrete advantages for the shooter.
The shorter grip radius produces a shockingly comfortable shooting
experience. You have to shoot the EMP® to believe how controllable it
is. The shorter dimensions also work to increase reliability – something
that's crucial in a concealed carry pistol. And of course, the overall
dimensions are one of the smallest 1911s out there.
The good news doesn't stop with the innovative design. The EMP® comes
loaded with all the features you expect in a 1911 of this class – like
low profile 3-Dot tritium combat sights and a match grade fully
supported and ramped barrel. And with 9+1 rounds of 9mm or 8+1 rounds of
.40 SW, the EMP® packs an amazing amount of punch in one of the
smallest 1911s ever.
If you're looking for a 1911 to carry with you every day, look no
further than the Springfield Armory® EMP®. Sometimes innovation changes

Feb. 23, 2011 — Life science startups face more complex and daunting hurdles than new enterprises in non-regulated industries do. To help aspiring and early-stage life science entrepreneurs address these challenges, the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation will hold a Kauffman Life Science Ventures Summit June 22-23, 2012. The Foundation announced a call for applications today for the inaugural Summit, scheduled at the Mission Bay Conference Center at the University of California-San Francisco. "We surveyed early-stage and seasoned life science entrepreneurs to find out what they considered critical needs for starting their companies, and we built an agenda around their feedback," said Dominique Pahud, director, advancing innovation at the Kauffman Foundation. "We will answer the critical questions that founders must address to start and grow viable life science companies. Every minute of this event will focus on helping founders create a path to successfully bring their innovations to market." Industry experts and successful entrepreneurs will provide practical guidance on commercializing innovations in each of four sectors: medical device, therapeutics, diagnostics, and digital health. Speakers and panelists representing each industry sector will share lessons, advice and insights. Speakers include Steve Blank, serial entrepreneur and author; Stephen Spielberg, deputy commissioner for medical products and tobacco at the Food & Drug Administration; Paul Yock, founder, Stanford Biodesign; Karl Handelsman, managing director, CMEA Capital; Kim Popovits, CEO, Genomic Health; and more. During the two-day Summit, participants will: Learn how to persuasively articulate their ideas and iterate on different business models. Learn team formation and co-founder lessons that most first-time founders miss. Identify and understand the alternative fundraising channels. Navigate the regulatory maze of intellectual property protections, FDA approvals, clinical development paths and reimbursement dynamics. Network with like-minded founders, industry experts, angel and venture capital investors, and successful entrepreneurs. Up to 200 life science entrepreneurs across the four industry sectors will be selected to attend. Applicants will be accepted based on two factors: (1) how much they will benefit from the experience based on where they are in their early-stage entrepreneurial journey, and (2) the commercial viability of their plan. The application and more information can be found at www.kauffman.org/lifescienceapp. The deadline is April 2, 2012. Selected applicants will be advised by April 13, and registration will open April 14. The registration fee is $100 before May 4, 2012, and $125 after that date. More information is available at. The Kauffman Life Science Ventures Summit is sponsored by the California Institute for Quantitative Biosciences (qb3), Stanford BioDesign, Rock Health and MIT's H@cking Medicine.

Our precious early angel
This is great. Thanks for all the support and advice.
It's not only my DD's allergist that wants he weaned. The dermatologist and, then this evening, her pediatrician started in on me. She told me that by continuing to nurse I'm creating an unhealthy dependence. That the greatest gift I can give her is her independence. That if I wean her, it will empower her. I'm crying, I'm distraught, I'm being convinced I'm selfishly ruining my child. I do really enjoy nursing DD. It's my favorite time of the day. Her pediatrician told me that I'm keeping her a 'baby'. I should encourage her to 'be a big girl'.
There's all this great research and evidence and support online for extended nursing but everybody I know is telling me to wean her.
Angela (AP), mommy to Charlotte Rose (12/22/06) and Ruby (7/30/09) http://lettiebuzz.blogspot.com/
to you mamma! I know it's not easy when everyone (including all your doctors) are not supportive and plain outright with telling you to wean. My doctors too have told me to wean for the same reasons as you (my son has had several medical problems including allergies) and I have ignored them - eliminated dairy (one of his allergens) out of my diet and continued to nurse. My son just isn't ready to wean, we both enjoy it and he nurses to sleep. In fact I just don't tell them that I nurse anymore - easier all round.
Ignore your doctors and go with your gut. YOU know what's right for your child. Hang in there mamma!
Mother to Zayne 19/8/06 2.56kg
Angela - IMO you do the research and decide what it right for you and your daughter.
I'm honestly shocked that those doctors are recommend that you wean for social reasons and not for any medical reason.
And quite honestly, they don't have the latest info from the medical experts about breastfeeding and weaning.
The following is from the American Academy of Pediatrics policy statement on breastfeeding.
(bold emphasis is mine)
IMO your decision whether you want to continue breastfeeding or to begin the process of weaning is entirely up to you, your husband, and your daughter.Pediatricians and parents should be aware that exclusive breastfeeding is sufficient to support optimal growth and development for approximately the first 6 months of life and provides continuing protection against diarrhea and respiratory tract infection. Breastfeeding should be continued for at least the first year of life and beyond for as long as mutually desired by mother and child.
- Increased duration of breastfeeding confers significant health and developmental benefits for the child and the mother, especially in delaying return of fertility (thereby promoting optimal intervals between births).
- There is no upper limit to the duration of breastfeeding and no evidence of psychologic or developmental harm from breastfeeding into the third year of life or longer.
For everybody else - it's really none of their business.
Some books you might find helpful (I checked them out of my local library):
Mothering your Nursing Toddler
How Weaning Happens
I personally never thought I'd be nursing a 2 year old ... but its clear to me and my DH that nursing is very important to our DS both nutritionally and for the security. I have chosen to set some limits on nursing because that is what works for us. Everybody knows that DS is continuing to breastfeed. I tell people (if its relevant) as a statement and it's really clear that I'm not open to others' "advice" or opinions.
I'm sorry you're going through all this!

many Doctors just don't get it. I took Joshua this morning to get his rashes checked out (exzema), and he said "you mean you still have milk coming out?"
Mothering Your Nursing Toddler is a wonderful wonderful book. It will give you such peace of mind, and great advice. I highly recommend it.

Try finding something by Katherine A. Dettwyler to read and it will really encourage you, she is an anthroplogist who I have heard speak on weaning...
Here is a link ....
I think it is hard to find doctors who know about breastfeeding and car seats! They aren't Lactaion Consultants and they are not Certified Child Passenger Safety Techs -- they went to medical school- and they sure know a lot about sick kids, but they don't know everything.
Okay, I'm just thinking out loud here, but I wonder, since allergies show up because of immune system response if eating peanuts directly maybe caused a big jump in her immune response, and now her body is just more sensitive to what you are eating. It might be worth talking to an allergist about the possibility. BTW, Dr. Sears also has a lot of good things to say about how nursing until your child outgrows the need actually fosters indendence.
DS 1/2006 9 lb. 2 oz. 22 in.
DD 10/2008 8 lb, 2 oz. 20 in.
wife , mom, maid , cook , taxi. All in a days work
sorry you're having to go through your DD's health problems and on top of that having to endure completely unfounded and inappropriate 'advice' from medical professionals... it makes me sooo mad.
Definitely get hold of 'Mothering your nursing toddler', it will help you feel a lot more confident about your choice of extended nursing.
There's also a book called 'our babies, our selves', by an anthropologist who also cites the work of Dettwyler, or check her webpage (not sure if other pp gave the link: http://www.kathydettwyler.org/dettwyler.html)
Not sure if this is for you, but have you considered alternative therapies for treating allergies? like homeopathy? you may be able to find a much more sympathetic person and equally effective treatment with no side effects of steroids.

I went back to work about a week ago, and am finding it to be pure hell. Being a small store, there is no lactation room, which is completely understandable. However, the break room isn't really a break room, it's just a section of the back room where everything is stored, and anyone inside this "break room" is clearly visible to whoever enters the back. I'm debating on whether or not to pump in the bathroom. Does anyone else do this? Last time I tried not pumping at all and found myself aching up to the armpits by the time I reached home.
To make matters worse, the day before yesterday, Soren's daddy hands me the diaper bag when he drops him off back at my house - with the milk I had expressed still in it. He said that since the baby didn't want to sleep, he thought feeding him formula would help. For some reason or another, despite the first bottle of formula not seeming to help, he continued giving him formula anyway... He knows exactly how I feel about that too, and did it anyway. I don't want to leave Soren with him anymore, for that reason, and because he doesn't feel it's necessary to pick him up unless he's been crying a little while. However, denying a father a right to see his son feels wrong.
I just wish I didn't have to work, so I could take care of my little one until he's old enough to entrust to another's care. I can never really trust anyone other than myself to make sure he's safe and well cared-for.

I did get several things sewn in the time I was signed-off the blog for the holidays. This little pillow is for my son Eli and was a Christmas gift. It is a travel or crib-size pillow. We have several pillows like this at the house and they are a real nice size as an extra cuddle pillow.
The 'E' was from a block I had made as a trial when I made his Eli's Log Castle quilt. Having that already done meant that the whole pillow went together super quick. The bright yellow fabric matches the walls in his room. The pillow has a quilted front -- a very simple pointy stipple in the middle section and then some straight lines near the seams.
I used this jazzy Dr. Seuss fabric for the back. (The way it's sitting makes it look like a poor fit, but it is actually finished nice and straight) I made a pillow for my daughter too that I will post once I can get a pic of it.
Happy Quilting! Posted by Riel Nason on The Q and the U

Great product to organize all my students. It holds their planner, homework, assignments and take home notes. They are durable and last all year long. I use a different color for each class.
