Topic: question about scaffolds - Are there set scaffolds?
Hi I am a new ROR user and I love it.
I can not believe how far OOP has come since I was using Delphi 5.
I have question about scaffolds?
Are there set scaffolds?
Last night I was doing a tutorial that created a scaffold user, at first I thought the when I go:
script/generate scaffold user ...........
It greates a scafold called "user" because I called it user then it just created what ever boxes etc I asked it to make.
But then I noticed that it created a form called "users" not "user" so then I was wondering if I was infact calling a template made by someone else that contained a form called "users"
Are there a set numer of templates scaffolds or do I greate the scaffold from scratch when I generate it?

Dueling gun bills
The issue of stronger gun control measures is as hot in state capitols around the country as it is in Washington. Minnesota is no different, with dueling gun control bills getting attention this week.
One bill would require background checks for all gun purchasers, including those at gun shows who at this time can buy a gun without the background check and waiting period that someone at a gun store has to go through. It would also limit the number of rounds in magazines for semi-automatic weapons.
Another bill would do neither of these things, nor does it ban the sale of military-style assault weapons.
Introduced on Tuesday by Rep. Deb Hilstrom, DFL-Brooklyn Center, it is supported by the National Rifle Association and its mouthpiece in the Legislature, Rep. Tony Cornish (R-Vernon Center). The bill would prohibit felons from possessing ammunition, create mandatory minimum prison sentences for violent felons who are convinced of possessing firearms on a second offense and make it a felony for individuals to file false reports of lost or stolen firearms.?It also improves sharing of criminal and mental health data between federal and state governments.
Critics of the bill look askance at any legislation supported by the NRA, which is dead set against any bans on guns, or limits on magazines, or expansion of background checks.
It was touted as a bill that would united legislators and give them something everyone can support. It's not.
While we don't see the necessity to ban assault rifles, when plain old handguns are used in so many more gun deaths, we do think anyone who wants to buy a gun, anywhere, should have to undergo a background check that is thorough enough to include any history of mental illness.

Madam Speaker, with respect to what really happened with the forestry industry, members will recall the outcome of the softwood lumber crisis of a few years ago: we gave the Americans a billion dollars.
Yes, the softwood lumber industry was at the end of its rope. Industry representatives asked us to support the measure even though we ended up giving the Americans a billion dollars. However, we always called for loan guarantees, regardless of whether the Liberals or the Conservatives were in power. If those governments had offered loan guarantees to companies in the forestry industry or to sawmills, they would have been responding to a need. Those demands are still on the table. Both the forestry industry and the mills still want the same thing as before.

Paul Szabo Mississauga South, ON
Madam Speaker, in the past I have made a statement to the effect that the measure of a country's success is not an economic measure but rather a measure of the health and the well-being of its people. I believe that is the important issue in this budget and that, in this time of our country's financial duress, we need to keep our eye on the condition of our people, particularly the most vulnerable.
We bandied the term accountability around quite a bit so I thought the members would be interested to hear my definition of accountability. To me, it means to be able to explain and justify one's actions or decisions in a manner that is true, full and plain. That is a high mark for almost anyone to hit, but today, in this time of financial duress, it is time for our parliamentarians to step up to the level of accountability so that all Canadians have hope for tomorrow and for the future, rather than fear.
We need to deliver that hope, which is why this Parliament is sitting now and why many members have lamented that the House's business was disrupted by prorogation and by a fairy-tale November economic statement that was clearly not true, full and plain and did not reflect the reality.
Another election was not in the best interests of the people. It was a partisan issue and that is why the opposition stepped forward after that economic statement which was unacceptable not only to the opposition parties but to Canadians as a whole.
The economic statement was very rosy. It projected surpluses throughout the five year period when all the private sector economists and all the pundits who had looked at the fundamentals knew that the country was facing some serious problems.
That is one of the reasons that an amendment was proposed to the budget and why it was adopted by the government. It is important to understand that the principles of protecting the most vulnerable in our society, those who are unable to help themselves, had to be included in the budget.
Unfortunately, I have heard far too often in this place that we would rather people just kept the money in their pockets rather than paying taxes to the government. What the budget does not take into account is that there are people in our society who are unable to care for themselves. They do not have the means and they do not pay taxes but they do need the government to assist them, whether it be a social safety net or with the goods and services that they need to sustain themselves.
That one proviso in the amendment protects the most vulnerable in our society and the growing vulnerable, those who will lose their jobs. Some 230,000 Canadians have already lost their jobs, more than are projected to be created by the budget.
The second two issues concern jobs. The challenge right now is jobs. The measure of success of the budget will include our performance on the job side: saving existing jobs or reducing the job loss in existing businesses and industry, as well as creating new jobs in the emerging and highest probability areas where new jobs may be created.
Finally, it is with regard to a plan for getting out of deficits. It is unfortunate that the government has squandered, through its reckless spending and fiscal imprudence, a $14 billion annual surplus that it inherited in 2006. It is gone.
I wrote down a few things that reminded me of the things that paint a picture of what the Conservative government has presented to Canadians since it took office in 2006. I remember statements by the Prime Minister about the cultural industry. He said that it was a subsidized whiner. When does a prime minister use that kind of language?
The first thing the Conservatives did in forming government was to develop a 200-page binder on how to make committees dysfunctional, which they were successful in doing in a couple of cases, the procedure and House affairs committee, as well as the justice committee.
The government taxed income trusts when it promised not to do that. The $25 billion of wealth, particularly of retirees, was wiped out. A 31.5% punitive tax is still there. It should be gone and replaced with something that protects Canadian investors. The government passes it on to offshore investors who are the ones getting the most benefit from income trusts.
The government sued the former leader of the opposition over the Cadman issue. It voted non-confidence in Elections Canada. It broke its own legislation on fixed election dates. Our election was not supposed to be last October 14. It was supposed to be October 19, 2009. Why was the legislation broken? It was broken because the Prime Minister thought Parliament was being dysfunctional so he called an election.
When the Prime Minister gave a speech on that bill he said that no prime minister would ever be able to use partisan objectives for calling an election, that every Canadian would know the election date. It did not happen. The legislation was broken and it was the government's own legislation. Go figure. It is amazing that it had to happen.
Everything that the government brought forward was made a confidence vote. It meant that if those legislative measures were defeated we would go into an election. How is it that everything is a confidence vote? It was politically motivated. The government was trying to take advantage of the political vulnerability of other parties. That is not the way to put the interests of the people ahead of partisan interests. It is quite the reverse and yet the government purports quite the opposite.
I could go on but I think people get the idea of where we are now.
Where are we today? Stock evaluations are low. Markets are down about 40%. Emerging markets have lost about 60% of their value. Notwithstanding the Prime Minister's assertions that our banks are strong, the credit crisis exists in Canada and the government itself is coming forward to take some of the pressure off by taking over asset backed mortgages.
Housing is not only stalled but prices have plummetted. Bankruptcies are up 50% year over year. We now have 230,000 jobs lost, more than the 189,000 that the budget purports to create.
Eighty percent of our trade was with the U.S. but now the protectionist rhetoric has put us on our heels again. The auto industry has been crushed. The forestry industry is dwindling. The shipbuilding industry is virtually dead. It paints a picture that Tory times are tough times, and that is the reality. With all of the signs of the past year, the government insists that the problem is elsewhere, that it is the U.S. and that we are strong and everything is fine.
That is not the case. When one is a trading nation and the other nations it trades with, particularly the United States, are in difficulty, the nation needs to recognize that fact and bring it into the reality of its fiscal management, policies and the way in which it governs.
In December, the Prime Minister said that there would not be a recession in Canada and that we were fine as long as we did not do "stupid" things like running a deficit. Look at where we are now.
In October, he suggested that the market represented some good buying opportunities for Canadians. The stock market has gone down a further 20% since he said that. In November, the government's failed economic statement promised us surpluses for the next five years. Twelve days later, the Bank of Canada announced that we were in a recession. In December, the Prime Minister admitted that the government would run a deficit of $20 billion to $30 billion. In January that was amended to say that it was closer to $40 billion. Once budget 2009 was tabled, we saw that the government was running a deficit even in the current fiscal year of 2008-09.
It goes back to the issues of accountability, credibility, being truthful, plain and honest with Canadians, not to create fear but to say that we understand what is happening. My concern is not so much about the economic measures and numbers but more about the condition of the people. I do know that when people lose their jobs and problems occur in a financial sense, it creates stress, depression, desperation and bad things happen. It affects a person's mental and physical health and it affects their families and interactions. It means that the cost of health care and social services programs will go up. It also means, as was shown in the 1990 recession, that there is a very positive tracking between the level of unemployment and the level of crime. I hate to say this but it shows that there will be a level of crime. It will mostly be property crime because people are desperate.
Many of those costs will be borne by the provinces but they have had no increase in terms of transfers to the provinces to deal with these inevitable areas. The government has not seen it far enough. On page 219 of the budget bill, members will see the government's minuscule plan to return to surplus. It is simply, "We hope".

Alan Tonks York South—Weston, ON
Madam Speaker, the last part of the member's address dealt with closing the accountability loop. He became more precise when he talked about the social interconnection between high unemployment and the trauma that Canadians would be facing, issues related to criminal activity and other activities in response.
I wonder if the member, who has had a great deal of experience through his membership on the public accounts committee and certainly from having been in this House a long time, could give the House some insight into how he sees the ongoing monitoring of expenditures under the stimulus package, particularly in the social programs that he talked about. I wonder if he could give us an idea as to how that could be linked to the invitation that the government appears to have put out, which is that if the stimulus package does not work it is prepared to reinvest or find other mechanisms that would come to grips with stimulating the kinds of programs that would meet the kinds of issues to which the member has alluded.
Government Orders
1:45 p.m.
Paul Szabo Mississauga South, ON
Madam Speaker, the experience that the Parliamentary Budget Officer has had, in looking at the last reported year 2007-08, has to do with rolling out money. Indeed, in 2007-08, with regard to the infrastructure investments, for example, only half of the money actually went out. Some $2.2 billion never went out. It lapsed. It meant that it was promised but not spent.
What I and, I think, the member are concerned about is the government saying that it will do things but never gets the money out there.
With regard to the social side, the budget does not address the concerns that the member has articulated. It means that this budget is not a finishing point for me. It must be a starting point. We need to change some things down the road. I hope the monitoring mechanisms, to which the member referred, the quarterly reporting and the work of the chair of the government operations and estimates committee, will bring to Parliament the evidence necessary to show that Canadians are being served in the areas that help those most in need.

Roger Pomerleau Drummond, QC
Madam Speaker, my colleague is rising again— like all the other Liberals before him and like those who will come after him—to tell us that it is not a good budget. Each one of them will present an argument on a specific subject and will make comments such as: this budget does not live up to their promises; it is too little, too late; there is an obvious lack of transparency; that it is a fairy tale; that it takes a partisan approach; and that those who will suffer are ignored by this budget.
If my colleague, and all the other Liberals, truly believes what he says why is he going to vote for this budget?
Government Orders
1:45 p.m.
Paul Szabo Mississauga South, ON
Madam Speaker, if this were simply a partisan issue, I would vote against the budget because it is not as good as it could be and should be.
We have already had some false starts. In the economic statement back in November it was clear the government was going in the wrong direction. The member is well aware that the opposition parties came forward with the conditions under which the government should come back with another budget and deal with matters such as the stimulus for infrastructure and for job growth and job protection, as well as for dealing with the vulnerable, dealing with EI. We asked for those things. They are now here. It is not a perfect budget.
The member, all hon. members and Canadians ought to ask themselves if they really think that going back to the electorate, having another $300 million election and putting Parliament out of work for another two or three months would be in the best interests of the people. I and I think most hon. members in the Liberal caucus came to the conclusion that having another election would not solve anything and all it would do would be to make things worse.

Dawn Black New Westminster—Coquitlam, BC
Madam Speaker, since this is the first opportunity I have had to rise while you have been in the chair, I would like to congratulate you on your appointment and tell you how proud I am as a woman parliamentarian and a fellow British Columbian to see you in the position that you hold today.
I am speaking today on the budget implementation bill. A number of issues have been discussed already in the House around the inadequacies of the budget that the government has put forward. The budget does not adequately address the very desperate needs of Canadians from coast to coast to coast in this critically uncertain economic time. People are losing their jobs and families are very concerned about being able to hold on to their homes.
The government is also doing something else. The government had committed not to bring in unnecessary confidence motions, yet in the budget bill the government is adding items that have nothing to do with the budget. It is bringing in through the back door things that are more ideologically motivated and really have nothing to do with stimulating Canada's economy.
The Conservatives are taking away women's right to pursue pay equity under the Human Rights Act. They are opening up Canadian industry to more foreign ownership. They are almost putting a for sale sign on Air Canada. They are making punitive efforts to go after students who are carrying student loan debt. The budget overall totally fails to protect the vulnerable in our society, to safeguard the jobs of today or to create the green technology jobs needed for tomorrow. It does nothing to protect the vulnerable in society, the people without homes, women and children. There is nothing in it for child care.
Some of the things in the budget implementation bill which have nothing to do with stimulating the economy are the amendments to the Navigable Waters Protection Act to streamline the approval process. More authority is being given to the minister to allow construction without environmental assessments. Pay equity will no longer go through the Canadian Human Rights Commission. With regard to foreign ownership there are changes to the Investment Canada Act so that only significant investments will be reviewed. A new national security provision has been added, which is rather worrisome. Members will remember the debate we had last year in the House of Commons about RADARSAT-2. I have mentioned the Canada student loan changes.
Collective agreements are being cut. In fact, the government on that side of the House that always talks about crime and community safety is rolling back the increases that were given to the RCMP only in June. If the RCMP cannot trust the Conservative government, I do not know how other Canadians can.
Another issue is employment insurance. The necessary changes have not been made to the two-week waiting period. In my community people are waiting up to eight weeks for their first cheque. As we all know, less than 40% of working Canadians qualify for employment insurance and the government has made no changes to that.
I want to take a moment to talk about the process my community went through in the lead-up to the budget. We were asked by the government side and by Canadians to consult with them about what they wanted in this federal budget.
In my riding we sent out thousands of invitations to British Columbians to participate in a community forum. Large advertisements were placed in the papers and emails were sent. Each of the three city councils and councillors were invited to attend. A non-partisan facilitator who has a lot of experience, Ted Kuntz, was present, along with other facilitators.
On January 3 there was a snowstorm in my community. We do not get snowstorms in New Westminster—Coquitlam very often, but even then the room was full of people from the community, community organizations and interested people from my riding who wanted to have some of the hard discussions around what they would like to see in the federal budget. We broke down into small groups with the facilitators and came back with recommendations. I want to talk about the kinds of things that activists, city councillors and mayors in my community thought should be in the budget.
They noted that from 2005 to 2008, homelessness in the city of New Westminster has risen 53%. They noted that homelessness in the Coquitlam area, in the tri-cities had risen 157% from 2005 to 2008. They noted that average rents in New Westminster had gone up 28% in the last six years alone. All of us from B.C. and from the Vancouver region know how unaffordable ordinary housing is for families. They talked about needing a national affordable housing strategy, and of course we did not see that in the budget. There is a small tax credit for people who want to renovate their cottages and for people who want to put new grass around their homes, but there is no national housing strategy. Canada at one time had a housing strategy that was the envy of the world. Nations came from all over the world to look at how we developed our housing strategy, but no longer. That speaks to why we have so many people on the street today.
My community also raised the issue of transit. They would like to get out of their cars and get around our community and to downtown Vancouver with rapid transit that would be ecologically more sustainable. They talked about the Evergreen transit line which, by the way, is mentioned in the budget as the priority for British Columbia, but all it says in the budget is that it could be funded. There are no hard dollars attached, no real commitment at this point to the Evergreen line.
They talked about the desperate need in my riding for seismic upgrades to our schools. Madam Speaker, you know, because you live in the same province as I do, that we are in a very dangerous earthquake zone, the worst seismic hazard zone in all of Canada, in fact. Fifteen schools in my riding rate high on the need for vital upgrades to make those schools safe for our children in the event of an earthquake.
They raised the issue of public safety. They noted that Canadians had been promised in the 2006 election an additional 2,500 RCMP officers for municipalities across the country. We have not seen that either. My community in Coquitlam has one of the lowest ratios of police officers to population in the entire country. Instead of delivering on this promise, the government is rolling back an agreement on wage increases for the RCMP. I submit that could further demoralize the force and make it even more difficult to recruit the RCMP officers that we need.
Child care was a huge item mentioned because the demand far outstrips the supply in my community. Five hundred and twenty requests for child care placements were denied in the city of New Westminster in 2007 alone. Average full-time child care spaces cost families about $700 a month which is far too high.
They talked about the green economy. They talked about shipbuilding. They talked about salmon. Salmon is almost a cultural icon in British Columbia but is also very much a part of our economy. They also looked for promises on addressing the pine beetle infestation that has affected British Columbia. Douglas College tuition has increased by 78% in the last five years.
It was a terrific consultative process. Out of that process came the "Community Blueprint for the Federal Budget, New Westminster--Coquitlam--Port Moody, Economic Investment Considerations and Priorities". We have heard over and over on this side of the House how New Democrats have not put any effort into what they wanted to see from the Minister of Finance. This document was put together by the community members, the community leaders and ordinary citizens in my communities of New Westminster, Coquitlam and Port Moody and was delivered to the Minister of Finance in advance of the budget being tabled in the House. However, we did not see our needs reflected in the Conservatives' budget.
Therefore, today I would like to seek unanimous consent to table this document, the community blueprint for the federal budget from New Westminster, Coquitlam and Port Moody, and have it added to the public record. There have been some discussions with different parties, indicating that I would be asking for unanimous consent, and I hope I have that.

Blaine Calkins Wetaskiwin, AB
Madam Speaker, today I would like to pay tribute to the unsung heroes of our lives. Parliamentary spouses deserve much credit, but they seldom received any recognition.
One special hero was Dianne Johnston, the beloved wife of Dale Johnston, the former member of Parliament for Wetaskiwin. On January 7, cancer claimed Dianne's life. An MP's spouse for over 12 years, Dianne was a confidante, soulmate and a source of moral support for Dale as he tackled the challenges that come with this demanding job.
While Dale made the long weekly commute to Ottawa, Dianne kept the home fires burning on their farm. On weekends, she accompanied Dale as he made the rounds of constituency activities. She patiently listened and applauded hundreds of speeches and campaigned alongside Dale with vigour. Dianne's charming nature and infectious sense of humour were appreciated by all those who had the good fortune to meet her. She will be truly missed by everyone who knew her.
As we send our heartfelt condolences to Dale and their daughters, Dalene and Michelle, let us all take time to thank our spouses for their dedication, their love and their support.

Mark Holland Ajax—Pickering, ON
Madam Speaker, one community in Canada produced more munitions for the allied war effort during World War II than any other in the British Commonwealth. This community is named after a legendary Royal Navy ship, key to the first decisive victory on the seas against Nazi Germany. It is the town of Ajax, the community I am honoured to represent.
The town of Ajax is seeking one other very special distinction, for a Canadian navy ship to be named in the town's honour. Ajax is a community passionate about its links to the navy and its unique role in the defence of liberty.
This October Ajax will hold a 70th anniversary event commemorating the battle of the River Plate. For both Ajacians and surviving war heroes, no honour could be more great than the government announcing that a future Canadian naval ship will bear the name HMCS Ajax.
I recognize the dedicated work of so many Ajacians in this campaign, including Ajax town council and Mayor Parish, and I ask for the full support of the House.
Emergency Services in a Valleyfield Factory
Statements By Members
2 p.m.
Claude DeBellefeuille Beauharnois—Salaberry, QC
Madam Speaker, on September 22, the first responders at the General Dynamics factory in Valleyfield received an emergency call over the radio, stating that a man was lying on the floor. The emergency response team quickly began looking for the victim, which is not easy in a factory of that size. The rescuers, who are employees at the factory as well as volunteer firefighters, found a man who had stopped breathing and was without a pulse. They started CPR and, a short time later, his heart began to beat again.
When the victim, Jean-Louis Benoit, was admitted to the emergency room, the doctor made it clear: without such quick and effective help, Mr. Benoit would not have survived.
Speaking personally and on behalf of my Bloc Québécois colleagues, I would like to commend the heroic acts of the first responders: Serge Fecteau, Guy Guymont, Sach Haineault, Gérard Jodry and Jacques Roy.
Bravo, their vigilance has saved a life.
Tool, Die and Mould Industry
Statements By Members
2 p.m.
Brian Masse Windsor West, ON
Madam Speaker, today a group of tool, die and mould shop owners from my community are travelling far and wide to ensure that they are not among the forgotten and forsaken of the Conservative government. This sector, which employs thousands of Canadians across the country and is the backbone of the entire manufacturing industry, has been left to twist in the wind while the government tries to figure out how to support an industry it chose to ignore until the eleventh hour.
This is yet another example of the Conservative government scrambling to make the insufficient and ill-conceived appear constructive. It is unconscionable that these reactive half measures have become business as usual for the government. Even more shameful is the official opposition, which is aware of these shortcomings, has chosen to align itself with the very people who have led us down this tragic path.
Allow me to acknowledge the efforts of these individuals who are only asking for fairness and support, support that the government has so willingly provided to other sectors of the economy. It is outrageous that they are compelled to put so much time and energy into demanding from the government what should have already been provided.
I hope the Minister of Industry will meet with this delegation and start to work them on a solution.
2010 Winter Olympics

Rick Casson Lethbridge, AB
Madam Speaker, the countdown is on. With only one year to go before Canada hosts the 2010 Winter Games, communities across the country are being invited to celebrate the countdown to 2010 in their own unique way.
One of the easiest ways to participate is simply by making some noise this Thursday, February 12, one year from the start of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Winter Games. At exactly 6 p.m. local time, in time zones across the country, Canadians of all ages are invited to make some noise. Honk car horns, sound foghorns, ring sleigh bells, sing songs or bang drums, anything to show Canada's pride as the games draw near.
On Parliament Hill, the Minister of State for Sport is inviting everyone out at 5:45 p.m. on Thursday to meet with our athletes and ring the Peace Tower bells. Let us build on the huge success of our athletes over this past weekend.
No matter how people plan to celebrate the one-year countdown, let us make some noise Canada and get involved in what will be the greatest Winter Olympics in the history of the games.

Carolyn Bennett St. Paul's, ON
Mr. Speaker, as the Mental Health Commission of Canada holds its regional round table in Ottawa today, providing local stakeholders with an opportunity to respond to its draft document, "Toward Recovery and Well-being—A Framework for a Mental Health Strategy for Canada", I remind the House that good health is not possible without good mental health.
Each year, one in five Canadians will encounter mental health issues. Consequently, virtually every family in this country will be directly impacted by mental illness.
Support for mental health is especially pertinent during this economic crisis as Canadian families struggle to pay the bills and cope with job losses.
For far too long, stigma has kept mental health issues off the public agenda. Canada needs a system that puts people living with mental illness at its centre, with a clear focus on their ability to recover.
The Mental Health Commission has a mandate to ensure that mental health issues stay out of the shadows forever and to reduce the stigma of mental illness. We have to do our part too.

What he told her is that it is "asthma like" but not the real thing. It is a common inflamation of the whole nose/sinus reagion and it has a name starting with rhino. I don't think it was rhinitis.......but something similar...and non-allergic.
I'll try and remember to ask her (I keep forgetting)
It is asthma-like, but not really asthma. I actually have no trouble breathing in and out. I passed all the asthma tests with no difficulty whatsoever and the technicians were saying they couldn't see why the tests were ordered in the first place.
If you could give me the name of what your wife has, it could give me a starting place when I talk with a doc next. Thanks.
Thanks!!! I couldn't ready past 1/4 until you answered me. Oh gosh, maybe my computer has been attacked by liberals!
READ not ready....geez!
I can see my last comment to you yesterday #105 but can't see where anyone else wrote during the day.
Hi Bev.
Over half the month gone ping.
You know, I think "when I got a life" and stopped posting daily, that I might have gotten off the ping list. So, maybe somebody and stick me back on. Thanks! Bev
Helllooooooo lysie and everybody! Yes indeed, where has half of January gone??
Hope all are well here, I'm so glad for the pings and the chance to keep up with some of the folks from here.
Bev, you are on the list. I don't ping everyday, tho.
Just so you do ping from time to time, sweetie, keeps us in the link with our friends. Bless you.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, jtill!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, and may you have many, many more.
Thank you! It pops up when I log in now - hooray!
Sorry for the late reply...I don't stop here as often

I promise you that after Not posting for several months, I DID NOT post 5 x's in a row!
Although I did try to enter my post...
I'll tell hubby about the batteries. It is working fine now. This is a relatively new system, installed in late October, I think.
War CAM Eagle! He is quite an impressive individual.
I read about deaths and damage in your state. Prayers up for the people of the South and Midwest.
Thank you. This is the third time in less than 12 months that we've had significant storm damage. It's getting old.
So glad you are still posting. Is Gail living on base now with new hubby?
No, not at present. She's still at Auburn and planning to graduate this May. Then, she'll join him in Colorado. They've been told they'll be transfered to El Paso in October.
She's flying out in February to spend a weekend with him. He's coming here in March.
It's not convenient but she didn't want to wait to get married and she (and hubby and I) wanted to finish her degree.
How are you? How are the boys and are you still tutoring?
Tim is fine...we don't have the second boy we want yet.
that's a heckuva wake up call for Dog. We should all heed BEFORE we get that wake u call.
That would be scary. Wish you all the luck in the world.
Thanks for letting us know, Jem.
I had a BP spike a couple of summers ago, it's scarey and makes you feel awful. Glad you are getting things under medical observation. I was able to cut my BP medicine in half which helped with the side effects aspects, primarily tiredness.
Thanks for the ping Jemian. I'm glad to see folks posting here again, it's nice to keep in touch with folks.
Good to see you check in HOB. Our daughter continues to teach as well, she had a challenging class this year academically but she's handling it OK.
Hope things work out with your work, God does have a perfect plan.
Dog...............Please take good care of self!!!!!
Prayers for you, dear one.
Jem.......Thanks for letting us know about Dog.
You are all welcome. Dog, you watch yourself. I want you around for many more years.
Dog, what a terrible wake-up call. Take good care of yourself and keep us all up-to-date on how you are doing.
Jem, thanks for letting us know about Dog.
Jem, thanks for the notice.
I was just thinking the same thing. I've missed you guys.
Yes, we're going to need every piece of sanity and support we can muster for ourselves for the rest of this year. It's gonna be sooo ugly. I'm imagining very ugly politics and I'll bet that even I'm surprised.
Hi LB! hope you are doing well..
But yes, it's going to get ugly(er). I'll deal with it Monday.
Were you one of the ones that sent me a fine-dining menu? I found an envelope full of those that several here had sent me, and added them to my keepsakes display.
I'm so glad YOU'RE here!
Nope, I don't think I sent you any menus. I have a few good recipes, I'm mostly a country cook. Farm raised, donchaknow...
So I'll ask that if you sent me a menu, ping me and tell me which restaurant it was. I can then mark them with the appropriate freeper handle. ;)
All except Kay. I know which one that is.
I miss her.
Blessings to you Dog! Hope that things have turned around for you in regards to blood pressure readings. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Offspring of mothers who had antenatal depression and experienced maltreatment in childhood are more likely to experience child maltreatment themselves

Implications for practice and research
Girls who experience maltreatment are at risk for long-term psychopathology, including antenatal depression and antisocial behaviour and their offspring are also at risk for maltreatment and adolescent antisocial behaviour if their mothers experienced both maltreatment and antenatal depression.
Early prevention of childhood maltreatment is necessary to prevent intergenerational transmission of psychopathology.
Screening pregnant women for a history of maltreatment, and starting prevention or treatment of depression and teaching parenting skills is indicated.
In 2010, close to 700 000 children were found to be victims of maltreatment.1 The WHO ranks major depression as …

'Maple Syrup'
Our family has always enjoyed making maple syrup. My father and his brothers remembered being part of the big maple sugar operation at his grandfather's farm in the 1920s. The project went on for days with the children being kept home from school to help with the round the clock chores connected with making maple sugar.
Making maple sugar is not an effortless undertaking. Suitable maple trees must be located, tapped and the sap carried to the sugar house where huge quantities of firewood are needed to boil the sap down into maple syrup and maple sugar. 40 gallons of sap are needed to make 1 gallon of syrup or 5 to 6 pounds of sugar. A typical farm family can be expected to make 200 pounds of sugar a year, plenty for their own use and plenty to sell. Best of all sugar making takes place in late winter when farm work is slow.
Warm days and frosty nights are necessary for the sugar maple to make sweet water. Twenty degrees at night and 40 degrees during the day is necessary for the sugar maple to produce a good quantity of sweet water. Although maple trees grow in Europe and mountainous sections of our southern states, they do not have the temperature fluctuations necessary to produce the flow of sap.
Early settlers learned about maple sugar from the Native Americans. In a 1751 report, a Swedish botanist, Peter Kalm wrote "The savages from prehistoric times, long before the Europeans discovered America, made maple sugar. The Europeans have now learned the method and nearly all of them, where this tree grows, make a large quantity of sugar each year."
The Indians discovered maple sugar from observing nature. They may have observed birds and squirrels eating sugar crystals formed during evaporation in the wounds of Sugar Maples trees. Native Americans could have also observed that broken branches dripped sap sometimes forming sweet icicles.
Accounts of missionaries, Indian captives and fur traders as early as the 1550s described the American Indian's technique for making maple sugar. Native Americans would make a couple of chops across the bark of the maple tree placing a birch bark basket where it would catch the sap. Meat was boiled in the sweet liquid, the sweet water then poured over the snow or mixed with corn meal, chestnuts and berries to make what we might call a granola bar.
Native Americans actually lived on sugar during the winter months when food was scarce or non existent. In the 1800s some Indians poured the sugar into wooden molds making all sorts of shapes such as bear paws, flowers, stars, small animals and other figures.
Europeans refined the process of making maple sugar by using copper or iron kettles in place of birch bark and wood. The settlers also used an auger to bore small holes in the tree rather than the slash of the ax. The small holes did not kill the trees as the ax slashes did. In modern times maple syrup is collected by plastic tubes running from the trees to a central collection point and then directly into the boiling room.
Before the Civil War, most sap was made into the less expensive maple sugar. After the Civil War the cost of cane sugar fell and from then on most of the maple sap was made into maple syrup.
A twist to the story of the history of Maple Syrup involves our second president Thomas Jefferson. Following the colonial period in our county's history, the Quakers of Philadelphia and Dr. Benjamin Rush and Thomas Jefferson endeavored to promote the production and consumption of Maple Sugar over cane sugar. The purpose of this was to destroy the institution of negro slavery. Cane sugar was produced by Negro slaves while maple sugar was produced by free men. They thought by destroying the consumption of cane sugar, negro slavery would be destroyed.
In 1789, when Jefferson returned to this country from France where he served as the United States Minister to France he joined Rush's Society for Promoting the Manufacturing of Sugar from the Sugar Maple Tree. Rush and the Quakers were abolitionists and in his own way so was Jefferson. The plan was for farmers to produce maple sugar for the United States and even a surplus to export.
The plan appealed to Jefferson, his love of Botany and his personal admiration for the yeoman farmer whom he believed to be the backbone of the American Republic. It also was a product that could be produced without the use of slaves.
With Jefferson's help, Dr Benjamin Rush wrote a pamphlet that encouraged farmers to help farmers start their own operation. On a trip north with James Madison, Jefferson spent several months in the New England States. He discussed the production of Maple Syrup with farmers of the area encouraging them to plant maple orchards just as they planted fruit orchards. Jefferson bought 60 maple saplings to start a maple orchard on the slopes of Monticello, Jefferson's Virginia home.
When my children were little, my husband and my father tapped our sugar maples for a little backyard maple syrup project. The maple sap was collected, boiled down on a kitchen stove in our garage and then canned in pint canning jars. We only made enough syrup for our own use, usually just a gallon or two. I will never forget the fragrance of that sap boiling down to syrup. To me it is always the fragrance of spring.

NHL?lockout shouldn't ruin season
Last weekend I woke up to a notification on my phone saying that the NHL was coming back this month. Surprisingly, it didn't make me as happy as I thought it would.
I consider myself a huge hockey fan, from junior hockey to college hockey to professional hockey, I love it all. I love watching it, photographing it and even participating in fantasy hockey leagues. So when the lockout was announced I was a little torn up.
Yet when I read that notification from ESPN on my phone, I wasn't jumping for joy.
Now, don't get me wrong, I am so happy to hear I'll be able to watch hockey with my roommates and friends again. I'm just still a little bitter about how long the lockout lasted.
I had plans to take my father to the Winter Classic and alumni game for his birthday, but those games were canceled months ago. After that there was the news of the cancellation of the all-star game and skills competition. With these traditions gone, I thought the season would be over completely, so I was settling in for a long lockout.
The fact that it didn't go the whole season is just amazing – any loyal hockey fan would agree with that statement. Which brings me to the other reason why I wasn't so excited to hear of the return of the NHL.
As the lockout continued for month after month and news about the negotiations trickled out, people would talk about it or post comments on websites about it and the NHL. That's all fine and dandy. But, after a while, those comments began to take a different course.
People started to turn their backs on the sport and the teams they once claimed they would always be loyal to.
Yes, the lockout was a mess and, yes, the arguing over money seemed ridiculous. But if you're a true fan of the sport and as loyal to your team as I am to the Red Wings, you'll be right there with me cheering them on during their first game back – no matter what your feelings about the lockout are.

The VW Group continues on its quest for world domination. The humble �People�s Car� of pre-war Germany spawned a juggernaut that now owns�among many other things�Bugatti, Bentley, Lamborghini, Audi, SEAT and Skoda, as well as Volkswagen, and this year it acquired not only Porsche but also Ducati, the premium Italian motorcycle maker. (Imagine Thanksgiving dinner at this family table!)
Most of us have never laid eyes on a Bugatti, rarely see Lambos and Bentleys, maybe encounter Audis or Porsches at the doctor�s office, and Skodas and SEATs aren�t available here. VWs, though, such as this Tiguan, are still the people�s cars.
Today�s German sedans, sports cars and even SUVs set the bar for luxury, performance and technology, and for sticker shock, too. VWs, on the other hand, deliver German automotive sophistication at prices that line up with mass-market vehicles from Japan, Detroit and Korea.
It�s almost uncanny. A GTI hot hatch, for example, not only echoes other, much more expensive and deluxe German cars, it somehow also feels like a direct descendant of VWs built 40 years ago. Believe me, I was there, in my 1971 Squareback. The Tiguan could be the modern counterpart to that old Type 3 VW�twice as big, more than twice as powerful and with twice as many driven wheels, but spiritually much the same sort of nimble, useful and pleasing wagon.
This is a long and possibly tiresome way to say that the Tiguan is a terrific car and a truly German car, too�born of a culture that reveres engineering, sweats the details and thinks legal speed limits are for dopes. The Tiguan drives with a delightful crispness that eludes most of its competitors, the CR-Vs, RAV4s, Santa Fes, Equinoxes, Sorentos, Escapes and so on that are slugging it out in the Small Ute category.
�Delightful crispness,� however, may not mean much to a crazed parent who�s chauffeuring kids from school to violin lessons while ordering takeout and scheduling meetings by Bluetooth, in bad weather and heavy traffic and on a budget. She or he needs an affordable, all-wheel-drive, all-around beast of burden designed to cope with the urban and suburban grind. The Tiguan is that, too.
(The Tiguan, BTW, were a mysterious, now-vanished race of nomadic pygmy warriors of the Sahara Desert, sort of smaller cousins to the Touareg. I think.)
With its squared-off corners and compact footprint, the tall Tiguan is dead-easy to maneuver and park even without the available rearview camera. There�s ample space for three lanky teenagers plus groceries or sports gear. The hassle of climbing into a third row of seats doesn�t exist because there isn�t one, but the second row folds down easily to make more room. The tailgate is well-suspended, so it goes up and down with two fingers, and the load deck sits at just the right height. Particularly under the enormous double sunroof, the car feels as spacious and airy as a greenhouse.
With the standard 200-horsepower turbomotor and a 6-speed manual gearbox, Tiguan prices start in the low twenties. If you want the multi-mode 6-speed automatic transmission, the aquarium sunroof, the touchscreen and the satnav and other toys (and you probably do), figure on laying out about nine grand more than that. Then you�ll not only be able to perform the family chores, but also ferry clients around without shame and knock off 250-mile highway sprints in Germanic safety and comfort, all at somewhere between about 22 and 28 miles per gallon. Just one caveat: If you�re used to a squishy suspension, the Tiguan�s ride will feel quite firm, maybe even rock-hard.
Back in the 1970s, when terms like �sport-utility vehicle� and �crossover� hadn�t been coined, a Tiguan would have looked impossibly large next to every other VW save the Microbus, and its comfort, spaciousness and sci-fi features would have been sensational. Today, we take all this for granted, but it�s easy to see how VW just might become the world�s largest auto company.

Ron Guth: No gold commemorative coins were produced in 1990. In 1991, the Mint commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Mt. Rushmore monument by issuing specially designed Half Dollars,Silver Dollars, and Five Dollar gold pieces. The obverse of the $5 gold featuresan eagle flying towards the monument; the reverse has the words "MOUNT RUSHMORE NATIONAL MEMORIAL" in fancy script. Both Mint State and Proof versions were sold to collectors at a premium over the gold value. All of the Mt. Ryshmore commemorative gold coins were struck at the West Point Mint.
This is a relatively common coin that can be located with ease in superb condition. However, by 1991, interest in modern gold commemoratives had begun to wane and the mintage of the Uncirculated version set a new low for the series. While not a rare coin, the Uncirculated version commands a higher premium than does the Proof version.

Hi Bellas,
This review is long past due. I had the opportunity to try out some new skincare products from Beaute Starr. It took me a few months to recover from past skin irritations before I was ready to try some new products. Better late than never right?
The company sent over their new face mask as well as their Coconut Oil for me to try out.

"Just Coconut" Virgin Coconut Oil
Virgin coconut oil is different from regular coconut oil on the market. Believe me, I've purchased some before from my local Farmer's Market and it's not the same. I have this chronic problem with dry, itchy, rough skin on my neck that flares up at one point every year. I'm not sure if it's allergies or a skin condition but it's really annoying. I've tried a lot of products to cure it but most do nothing to relieve the itchiness and dry skin. The condition usually lasts for a few weeks and then hopefully goes away. The only other product I found that sort of worked was Lush's Dream Cream. However, it was a little on the expensive side and more of a temporary solution. I wanted to see how the "Just Coconut" Virgin Coconut Oil worked.
I tried this product on my neck. It's not really an oil, it's more of the consistency of shea butter. The benefits of Coconut oil are amazing...you can use it on your skin or hair. My girl BeautyLogic used to talk about how it made her non-growing hair basically sprout and now she has the most gorgeous, long hair I've ever seen. The oil is also great for curing dry skin, eczema and other skin conditions. I love how it's a natural cure and not filled with chemicals that I can't even pronounce. You can read about the benefits here.
I used it on my neck and wow, all the itchiness that kept me up at night is gone! Over the last few weeks, my neck has softened and is not itchy. It's a miracle! I need to apply it daily to keep the curing process going but I am thoroughly impressed! I have definitely incorporated the Virgin Coconut Oil into my daily facial regimen for the last several weeks. I can also see it making a permanent fixture into my skincare routine.
Beaute From the Earth Anti-aging face mask
This product claims to be botox in a bottle. The mask is intended to help firm up loose skin. The main ingredients are all natural Volcanic Ash...the same ingredients in the super popular MAC products. The first time I used it, I noticed that my skin indeed felt super tight. It really does feel like a face lift. You'll notice when the product is drying because your face feels tighter and tighter. You're supposed to wash it off with a washcloth to make sure you get all the product off. The first time I used it, I had a tiny allergic reaction at my hair line. A few bumps popped up which often happens to me when testing new products. They went away after about a day. I was a little reluctant to try to the product after that but decided to really give it a shot. I used it two more times and had no issues.
Days after, my skin still felt tighter and lifted. Since I have sensitive skin that tends to be on the dry side, I applied the mask to wet skin. This alleviated an itchy feeling I had earlier. If you have any issues of loose skin, you can even go to the website to take a skin elasticity test. Use this once a week to get maximum results. I would choose this face mask over botox anyday, lol.
FYI, the labels on the products are printed paper stickers. I had these products by my sink and water splashed on them. After a while, you can't really read the label because the ink had smeared. I'd recommend storing this away from water and in your medicine cabinet or drawers.
You can check out these products at www.beautestarr.com. The company is run by an experienced makeup artist who has just about tried everything. The site isn't super impressive looking, but I do vouch for the products. The products are priced a bit more than average drug store skin care...but it appears that these products are used out of the company's spa and boutique, which explains the price.
In sum, I definitely recommend the Just Coconut for those with super dry, itchy skin conditions. I might try getting the unrefined coconut oil from Wholefoods and see how it compares. I don't really see myself using the Botox Mask on the regular since skin firming is not a major concern of mine right now. Still, I can see it being great as a preventative measure or for mature skin.
FTC Disclosure: These products were sent for review by the company. I was not paid to write this review and am not affiliated with the company.

Coconut oil helps prevent acne by keeping the skin soft and supple. Apply coconut oil daily to your skin to heal, moisturize and soothe it. Apply coconut oil to irritated or chapped lips as well; it's edible, so it's safe and so healing to the lips.

A growing Islamist insurgency is spreading to "soft" targets. A bomber boarded the bus as it stopped at an Egypt-Israel border crossing. Three South Korean tourists and the Egyptian driver were killed.
CAIRO – The suicide bombing of a tourist bus in the Sinai Peninsula indicates that a growing Islamist insurgency is spreading to "soft" targets and may do more damage to Egypt's already struggling tourism industry.
The bomber boarded the bus as it stopped at an Egypt-Israel border crossing and an explosion immediately followed, killing three South Korean tourists and the Egyptian driver, the Interior Ministry said.
"It's a very bad blow to any efforts to re-attract tourists again," said Mazen Hassan, an assistant professor at Cairo University. "This will definitely affect – at least in the short term – the flow of tourists back to the country."
Over the past three years, many would-be tourists have stayed away from ongoing political unrest that began with the uprising against dictator Hosni Mubarak and since led to killings in Egypt's streets, ongoing protests and bomb blasts that as recently as last month hit the capital.
The tourism industry's decline led to a drop in foreign currency reserves and loss of jobs, while overall unrest led to investments plummeting.
Sunday's attack "adds to the problems that the Egyptian economy is facing in general, not just the tourism sector," Hassan said.
And it comes amid government attempts to restore political stability and security as it tries to put the country's economy back on track and bring back tourism and investment.
"This was a despicable act of cowardice directed at innocent tourists," said presidential spokesman Ehab Badawy, in a statement. "And let me be quite clear: The perpetrators will find no hiding place and we will not rest until we have brought all those who planned, funded and carried out this atrocity to justice."
Egypt has been home to attacks on tourists before. In 1997, militants massacred 62 people – most of them tourists – at the Temple of Hatshepsut in Luxor. A string of bomb attacks hit resort areas in the Sinai Peninsula in the mid-2000s, leaving more than 140 dead. But Sunday's blast was the first attack on tourists in the Sinai in almost 10 years.
"Even though we haven't seen this kind of thing in a long time I think it's the logical next step," said Anna Boyd, a senior Middle East analyst at IHS, in London. "I don't think this is totally unexpected."
Attacks by suspected militants have increased in frequency and breadth since the overthrow of Islamist president Mohamed Morsi last August. Before his ouster, attacks were limited to police and security targets primarily in the northern Sinai Peninsula, which shares a border with Israel and the Gaza Strip. Since last summer, attacks have spread to mainland Egypt.
Ansar Beit al-Maqdis, an al-Qaeda inspired group, has taken credit for many assaults including an attempted assassination of the interior minister in Cairo last September. Last month, the group claimed responsibility for four bomb blasts that tore through the capital, killing half a dozen Egyptians.
No one has yet claimed responsibility for the deadly weekend blast. But regardless of who the perpetrators are, there is an emerging pattern of attacks not only on government and security forces but also on infrastructure seen to support the state, which includes sources of revenue such as the tourism industry, Boyd said.
"It's worrying because it's so widespread now," Boyd said. "What I mean by that is that after the toppling of Morsi, you really saw quite a quick evolution in the locations of terrorist attacks."
Over the past seven months, Egyptian authorities have thrown thousands of Islamists in jail in what they claim is part of a crackdown on terrorism. Critics say most arrests are politically driven and seek to quell voices of dissent. The government is particularly focused on crushing the Muslim Brotherhood.
The Brotherhood has condemned the attack and extended condolences to those affected.
"It is sad to note that the military-backed authorities have, once again, failed to uphold their duty of protection and care towards visitors and Egyptian citizens alike," said a statement by the Brotherhood's London press office.
"The Muslim Brotherhood deplores all forms of violence and demand that the perpetrators of this heinous crime are brought to justice," it said.

SUBJECT 4: Nutrition Education Opportunity
JOB ANNOUNCEMENT: Two (2) Part Time Breastfeeding Peer Counselors
JOB ANNOUNCEMENT: Nutritionist
- Breast Pump Order: We are placing another order for breast pumps and double pumping kits from Medela. In addition to the Medela Lactina Select electric breast pumps, double pumping kits and Harmony manual breast pumps, there will be another type of pump available to order. The Medela Personal Double Electric Single-User breast pump has been added to our Medela contract. Single-user means that this pump is not meant to be shared with other women, so we will be giving this pump to mothers who meet the following criteria:
- Participant must demonstrate a need for the pump.
- Mother must be separated from her infant at least 32 hours per week.
- Mother must be planning to offer breast milk exclusively to her infant and committed to continued long-term exclusive breastfeeding.
- Infant must be receiving no formula from WIC or any other source.
- Pump cannot be provided to the mother before 4 weeks post partum. If a mother needs a pump before then, she may be loaned a multi-user electric breast pump.
Agencies are not required to have this pump available, but if you are interested in providing this pump, you may only issue to participants that meet the above criteria. See the attached revised breast pump policy ER# 6.05100 for further guidance. It is important that you promote this pump to prenatal women and use as an additional incentive to promote exclusive breastfeeding.
If you would like to request any of these items for your agency, please complete the attached order form and email to firstname.lastname@example.com or fax to 573-526-1470 by COB on Wednesday, August 11, 2010. If you have any questions please contact Kathy Mertzlufft at 573-526-4792.
- Friendly Reminder – Formula Changes (Effective August 1, 2010) Important!
Please note the following:
a. Enfamil LIPIL with Iron:
- Enfamil LIPIL with Iron will no longer be available in MOWINS.
- Participants who have WIC checks which read "Enfamil LIPIL W/ Iron or Enfamil Premium" will be able to purchase either Enfamil LIPIL formula or Enfamil Premium formula depending on availability at the WIC vendors.
b. Enfamil Premium's Name Change:
- Enfamil Premium LIPIL is changing to Enfamil Premium Infant. Enfamil Premium Infant (Powder) will be the primary contract formula.
- The attachment is the new food item descriptions during the transition period (August 1, 2010 thru December 31, 2010).
- Local WIC provider staff must log off from MOWINS by 5:00 pm, Saturday, July 31, 2010 in order to receive the food item updates on Monday, August 2, 2010.
- It is important that staff create new food prescriptions for infants who have been receiving the food packages: "Enfamil LIPIL W/ Iron or Enfamil Premium" and "Enfamil Premium Infant or Enfamil Premium LIPIL". Food prescriptions can be established by a WIC Certifier or CPA.
Please share the attached chart with your staff. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Takako Tagami at email@example.com.
- 2011 LAP Release-Accessing Crystal Reports: The FFY 2011 Local Agency Plan (LAP) Caseload, Cost-Per-Participant and Special Funding amounts have been updated by the WIC state office and the online LAP is ready for entry. If you have problems accessing the LAP you may need to call the ITSD Help Desk at 1-800-347-0887 to have your password reset. To enter data to your LAP for FFY2011 select the agency number from the dropdown list and click "Access Current WIC LAP" in the lower right of the page. The LAP contains data that you entered for the previous year, so you will need to verify and revise this data for FFY 2011. The FFY2011 LAP is due to the WIC state office on Monday, August 31, 2010.
Several requests have been received for instructions to access Crystal Reports. These instructions are located on the Local WIC Provider web page.
If you have any questions about Crystal Reports or LAP Access, LAP Training or LAP Enhancements, you may contact Betty Cassidy at 800-392-8209 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
