This transcript is complete.
- [The episode begins in Princess Bubblegum's room where she is sleeping in her favorite t-shirt. The cuckoo clock above her bed sounds an alarm, dangling a cat from a spring in Princess Bubblegum's face. She wakes up.]
- Princess Bubblegum: Okay, okay, I'm up. [pushes cat away, gets out of bed, and sniffs her shirt deeply] Ah! [smacks lips]
- [She opens her closet, which contains a photograph of her with Marceline on the inside of the door, and takes out a jacket which she puts on over her t-shirt.]
- [Scene cuts to a different room in The Candy Castle, where Princess Bubblegum is speaking with her back to a curtained window.]
- Princess Bubblegum: Hey, everybody. I've asked you here today because you are the best of the best.
- [Finn, Jake, Cinnamon Bun, Peppermint Butler, Manfried, and three Banana Guards are shown facing Princess Bubblegum. Jake picks his nose.]
- Princess Bubblegum: Anyway, recent data shows an increased chance of threat to the Candy Kingdom.
- Finn: [Punches his palm]
- Princess Bubblegum: So I'm developing a new defense. [Pulls back curtains, revealing a Gumball Guardian] I've installed sleeping gas in the Gumball Guardians. If any bum tries to attack us, they will be sprayed without mercy. Isn't that nice? The only thing is the gas will spread and knock out anyone who breathes it—anyone but you guys, my trained elite. So watch closely. I'm gonna show you all how to overcome the gas [squints and points to her head] with sheer willpower. [points to Gumball Guardian] Hit it!
- [Gumball Guardian starts blowing sleeping gas through the window at them.]
- Princess Bubblegum: Now make a fist with your brain and punch against sleepy times, saying, "No! NOOO! NOOOOO! Don't go on gentle into that good night."
- [Gumball Guardian stops blowing. Cinnamon Bun coughs. Princess Bubblegum turns around and sees that all but Cinnamon Bun have fallen asleep.]
- Cinnamon Bun: [waving] Hi!
- Marceline: [flying in through the window] Yo, Bubblegum! [closes the curtains]
- Princess Bubblegum: Marceline! You're up late.
- Marceline: [quickly] No time for chitchat. Let's hang out—right now.
- Princess Bubblegum: Hmm, I don't know. I'm, uh, kinda busy. [looks at Cinnamon Bun]
- Cinnamon Bun: Uh, [waves] hi.
- Marceline: Listen, Bub-Bubs. I tracked down Maja the Sky Witch.
- Princess Bubblegum: Oh, what?!
- Marceline: Yeah, I tailed her to an enchanted forest, but it's all jammed up with barrier spells.
- Princess Bubblegum: Ohhh, I think I see where this is going.
- Marceline: Well, you love getting out your big brain and... and... I just thought it'd be cool to spend some quality time with you. [sighs] I need your help, okay?
- Princess Bubblegum: But why are you so interested in finding Maja?
- Marceline: It's just really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really important to me.
- Princess Bubblegum: Whoa. Okay, but—
- Marceline: Come on, I got your pack-pack. [helps her put it on]
- Princess Bubblegum: Um, sure, but—
- Marceline: Hold on to that "but," PB. [pulls her out the window]
- Princess Bubblegum: [grunts] Whee!
- Cinnamon Bun: [waving out the window] Haha! Whee.
- [Scene cuts to Princess Bubblegum and Marceline walking towards the enchanted forest. Marceline tries to go through some vines but is stopped.]
- Marceline: Gah! Something's wrong. Huh? Hey! [pulls at the vines] This stuff—it's like a brick wall! [bites a vine] Let's just blow the whole thing up.
- Princess Bubblegum: [rubs a high-tech thimble on the vines] Hmmm. [inspects thimble] It's a Sleeping Gate Bramble.
- Marceline: How do we kill it?
- Princess Bubblegum: All we have to do is take the path of least resistance.
- Marceline: [looks around] Alright, so where is it—the path?
- Princess Bubblegum: It's in here [points at her head] and in here [places her hand over her heart]. Now [inhales] take a deep breath [exhales and falls backwards into the vines] and be passive. [falls through to the other side]
- Marceline: [lies on the Sleeping Gate Bramble, which does not yield] [inhales] Grrrr! [bangs her head on the bramble]
- Princess Bubblegum: [poking her head through the bramble] Hello, friend. Trouble relaxing? How 'bout a cup of chamomile tea? [gives a red cup of tea to Marceline]
- Marceline: [sucks the red from the cup and falls through to the other side where several large mushrooms are growing on the ground] Wow! Wild digs.
- Princess Bubblegum: [holding up a device] Tell me about it. My googoomamameter is going babies. And look at my watch! [shows watch to Marceline]
- Marceline: It's... pink.
- Princess Bubblegum: It's running backwards. There's serious witchery afoot here.
- Marceline: Come on, Princess. We don't got all night. [walks forward while pulling along Princess Bubblegum by her arm]
- [They walk deeper into the forest.]
- Marceline: [sniffs] [A black feather falls in front of her.] [hisses]
- [Marceline looks up to see several totems hanging by ropes in the trees.]
- Princess Bubblegum: What are those things?
- Marceline: Totem cairns.
- [A crow-rabbit hybrid sitting on a branch caws.]
- Marceline: That's Maja's Crabbit Familiar.
- [Crabbit caws and flies away, dropping a feather. The feather falls to the forest floor and disappears with a sizzle.]
- Princess Bubblegum: Wibba-wha?
- [The ground where the feather landed swells up and forms a exact likeness of Hambo.]
- Hambo: Marceline! It's me!
- Marceline: Hambo!
- Hambo: Yeah, girl. What took you so long? I thought you gave up on me.
- Princess Bubblegum: Your teddy bear?
- Marceline: I'm sorry, man! [starts walking towards Hambo]
- Princess Bubblegum: [holding her back] Yo, wait a sec!
- Marceline: [turns to Princess Bubblegum] WHAT?!
- Princess Bubblegum: Marcy, how old are you? It's a trick, right? Come on!
- Hambo: Help me out, dum-dum! [fake crying] Boo-hoo. Boo-hoo-hoo-hoo
- Marceline: [taking Princess Bubblegum's hand off of her] Get off! [starts running toward Hambo] Buddy!
- Princess Bubblegum: [tackling Marceline] NO!
- Marceline: [on the ground] [grunts] BONNIE!
- [Princess Bubblegum throws the googoomamameter at Hambo, causing Hambo to disappear and wooden pikes to thrust upward through the ground where Hambo was.]
- Marceline: You killed him?
- Princess Bubblegum: Don't be dense! Hambo can't even talk! Snap out of it, girl.
- Marceline: He's been with a witch this whole time. Maybe he can talk now.
- Princess Bubblegum: That's seriously what this is about? Rescuing your old teddy bear?
- Marceline: Yeah. Sorry I didn't tell you. You might not have come otherwise.
- Princess Bubblegum: Um, yeah. Raggedy Princess can make you a new Hambo in, like, three seconds... or Raggedy Princess can be your new Hambo. She'd do it, too. That girl's got, like, zero self-respect. [chuckles] That's mean—don't tell her I said that.
- Marceline: I'm not getting a new Hambo. There's only one Hambo.
- Princess Bubblegum: It's just a doll.
- Marceline: [raises her fist] See this? [extends her arm towards Princess Bubblegum and starts moving it in a circle] [imitates a plane's engine] Voooooooo...
- Princess Bubblegum: What's that? You gonna bop me one?
- Marceline: It's comin' in for a landing. What'cha gonna do, PB? Wanna keep dissing Hambo?
- Princess Bubblegum: [sighs] [monotone] I'm sorry, Marceline. Let's go get Hambo.
- Marceline: [retracts arm] Disengage.
- Princess Bubblegum: We should track that bird-rabbit thing.
- Marceline: Right.
- Princess Bubblegum: [squints] Hmm. [sees broken branches] Bang. [points] There goes some broken branches. It left a trail.
- Marceline: I see it. [flies away]
- Princess Bubblegum: [running after her] Hey! Hold on now! [pants] This bag's mad heavy!
- Marceline: [flying through branches and shielding her face with her arms] [grunts]
- Princess Bubblegum: Glommit! [jumps over a mushroom] [grunts] [comes to a clearing] MARCELINE! [walking up to a pond] I thought you needed my help. [looks into pond and sees the reflection of a house] Huh. [looks up and sees only clouds.] Nice trick, Maja. [at pond] You in there, Marceline? Hyup! [dives into pond]
- [Princess Bubblegum swims straight down and falls out the other side into the sky]
- Princess Bubblegum: [gasps for air as she falls up toward a house in the sky] WHOAAAA! [grabs doorknob to house, opens door, and walks into the foyer] Woof. [The door closes and locks behind her.] [looks around] Okay, PB, use your brain. Where would this witch keep Hambo? Break it down. [squints and her vision turns red as she looks at details around the house] Micro... and macro... the picture... becomes... clear... and... call it! [points to each detail she saw] Nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, wait... [points to opening above chandelier] yes. [climbs up the chandelier's chain]
- [Scene cuts to Marceline, who is walking down a hallway.]
- Marceline: Where are you, Maja, you creep? [bumps her head on the ceiling] Oof. [sees a small door] What? [opens door, revealing Hambo] Hambo! [Hambo falls back and starts transforming into Crabbit.] No!
- Crabbit: Caw, caw!
- Marceline: You again. I'LL KILL YOU! Give me Ham—[Crabbit slams the door in her face.] Uh! [opens door and follows Crabbit back to the foyer, where they start fighting]
- [Marceline kicks the Crabbit to the ceiling and it falls to the floor. It transforms into a muscular humanoid shape and resumes fighting.]
- [Scene cuts to Princess Bubblegum walking into a room full of boxes and various items.]
- Princess Bubblegum: Jeez, man. This must be all of her stolen junk. Ugh, what a creep. [lifts a toy car] Psh, a Ford Broncus. [sets it down] Hmm... [looks around] Whoa! [sees a box and reads its label] "My Privates"? Come here, biddy. [climbs up junk to it] Bam. Whoops! [falls backwards, pulling the box with her and spilling papers] What the—? [picks up a paper] Invoices? [looks at another one] Receipts? [reads it] "Zumma zoom bleep blop for the purchase of Hambo." Whoa, WHAT?!
- [Maja enters the room, levitating.]
- Maja: That's my private box. Maja's mitts only, ya goof.
- Princess Bubblegum: So you purchased Hambo? From some weenus named Ash?
- Maja: That's right. He was a weenus so I wrote it on there as my personal joke. [pulls out Hambo from under her poncho] But the sale is still legit. Hambo's mine! His body's all juice-logged with sentimental affection—a savory spell spice. So get out of my face, alright?
- Princess Bubblegum: Where's Marceline?
- Maja: She's busy with my Crabbit... crow-bit... crow-rabbit. I knew that tranch wouldn't respect my proof of purchase. So what about you, bozo?
- Princess Bubblegum: By the laws of my kingdom, I must honor the exchange of goods for legal tender. But guess what—I'm not leaving without Hambo.
- Maja: [laughs] So what are you gonna do about it?
- Princess Bubblegum: [makes a fist and pulls up her sleeve] I'll tell you what I'm gonna do.
- [Scene cuts to Marceline still fighting the Crabbit. She punches it and it falls to the ground.]
- Princess Bubblegum: Marceline! [throws Hambo to her] Yoink!
- Marceline: [catches it] Hambo! [shedding tears] Oh, it's me, buddy! [wipes her tears] [hugs it and sighs] How did you—?
- Princess Bubblegum: I took care of it. [jumps from the staircase onto Crabbit] Let's bust out.
- [Marceline breaks through the door with Princess Bubblegum riding on her back. They fall straight down into the pond.]
- [Scene cuts to Maja looking through a window, smiling at them from a room with a cauldron. Crabbit comes crawling in with bruises and scratches.]
- Crabbit: [grunts] They got away with your [grunts] Hambo.
- Maja: Huh-duh! I let them!
- Crabbit: You what?
- Maja: I made a trade... for this! [pulls out Princess Bubblegum's t-shirt] Bing! [puts it on her face] Mmmmm. [sniffs] Sentimental freshness! Ah, the psychic resonance on Hambo is nothing [rips off a sleeve] compared to this baby! [tosses sleeve into cauldron, which flares up violently] WHOO! Hahahaha!
- Crabbit: Listen, Maja. I am not your familiar anymore. I wanna be a dancer.
- Maja: That's cool. Then why don't you dance to this?! [zaps Crabbit with lightning]
- Crabbit: AAAH!
- Maja: Nice moves! [zaps] Now you're the weenus! [Crabbit leaves] Hey, don't go! [flies after him and continues zapping] Ahahahahaha! I'm cookin' up something big, Crabbit! This is my victory lap! Ahahahahaha!

"Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are." That's one of those sayings we hear repeated and consider wise. You could probably come up with any number of similar quotes that suggest we can discern the nature and character of a person by what they say, do, wear, and even who they marry. Common sense right?
But what if the person judging who you are is not looking at you in the real world but the virtual world?
Your personal data may have been aggregated by a robot-driven website that seems reliable but is not. Or the researcher for a potential creditor, perhaps, could view via Google and also out of context the snippet of a blog post or a poem you wrote and form an opinion of you that could influence decisions about your future or judgments of your life's work. That could happen, assuming the researcher has poor research skills.
And here's an example used often to strike fear into early Internet adopters: What if that picture of you dancing on the bar in college that you posted years ago, before you understood privacy settings, and have long since deleted is nonetheless visible to potential employers or business partners on a Way Back Machine?
These kinds of considerations may be more troublesome for bloggers and others who've gone full throttle into social media, but even those who are not online have concerns. What if in some public record somewhere, due to a clerk's typo, you are classified as divorced with children, but you've never been married nor do you have a child, and yet, when people search for you in Google or Bing, that part of the record is fourth on first-page results, resurrected by a website using an error-ridden public database?
Some of us might shout then that our privacy's been violated and our lives misreported. Another might say, "not really" because we've brought these specters to our doors ourselves through our love of network technology. And another might argue less privacy makes the world a safer place.
Technology complicates an old American issue, whether we have the right to privacy. Once upon a time in America expectations of privacy were considered a threat to society; it was illegal for people to live alone, and in a country made up of small villages, any hopes of keeping a secret was deemed a novel idea. I heard this on an episode of House, but nerd that I am, I looked it up, and it's true.
For all our whining today about loss of privacy in the digital age as though privacy is a guaranteed right of American citizenship, the fact is that the right to privacy has often been in jeopardy. Our government's willingness to protect this right has been less than unequivocal, and now, due to computer networking technology, modern humans may be going back to the days of fewer secrets, to live their lives as open books.
I think computer networking technology can be a beautiful thing, a powerful tool that's made sharing information that connects the world easier. After all, it made the Internet possible, a seemingly indispensable invention that's being used to free hearts, minds, perhaps even nations -- and sometimes people from prison.
Many of us can claim positive personal experiences related directly to the benefits of the World Wide Web. We've seen it used to reunite long-lost friends, lost loves, and more recently in the news, use of the Internet helped Carlina White, raised as Nejdra Nance, to solve her own kidnapping. But we also know the Net has a dark side and that technology that enables law enforcement to find criminals or locate missing children is a double-edged sword.
Daily we use browsers that allow advertisers to track what we do online. Facebook will be using our posts to friends for ads while giving us no way to opt out short of quitting the site. Even creepier, using vast computer networks, companies can track us via RFID tags and cameras in the physical world as well.
But advertisers' ability to track consumers is not the only concern. Thanks to cell phone cameras and social media, anyone can catch you at anytime doing something stupid that before only the people physically present could see, but now anyone can make that image or video of you permanently public.
We saw this type of embarrassing exposure most recently with the woman-walking-while-texting video. Despite the dramatic twists and turns in that story, which featured Cathy A. Cruz Marrero falling into a mall fountain on YouTube, the case shows us how easy it is for someone to make anyone of us famous or infamous today without our permission (Marrero drew more attention to herself by coming forward).
Another case of unkind exposure, the story of Tyler Clementi, had a more tragic outcome. Clementi, a Rutgers University freshman, committed suicide after his roommate broadcasted the freshman's sexual encounters online.
And then there are those automated data aggregators mentioned earlier, websites such as Spokeo.com that reveal our private data to strangers, usually with our help whether that's our intent or not ("Please Rob Me and How the Internet Affects Privacy"). More disturbing, given how the Web works, it may be impossible to stop such leaks of personal data on Spokeo. I found information there about an elderly relative who's never logged onto the Internet in his life, and since he's always kept his number and address out of public phone books, I guess this information made its way to the Net via some local government record.
While the kind of information websites such as Spokeo reveals is often inaccurate and a matter of public record, and even though these leaks do not bother some people, it can't be ignored that inaccurate information can sometimes do more damage than negative facts. Consider what bad rumors and lies can do to a reputation. This is the reason we have libel and slander laws, and earlier this week, CNN and multiple news sources reported the case of Gene Cooley, the Georgia man to whom a judge awarded $404,000 after a woman wrote horrific lies about him on a community message board.
Cooley's case has another side related to privacy and the Internet because the woman who libeled him did so anonymously. The case informs people who assume virtual identities and anonymous posts can never be revealed that they are wrong.
"People believe that they're acting anonymously on the Internet, and to a certain extent that may be true," said media attorney Peter Canfield. "But people have virtually no privacy on the Internet. When you go online, you leave tracks that can be followed and traced."
In court, anything about you can be made public if a lawyer argues effectively that the information is relevant to the case, such as the real name behind your screen name. In this Georgia case the woman should have been exposed, but there are other times when we may be penalized unjustly. Sometimes what we've said or written can be misrepresented, especially as our online personas grow older and behind them trail years of blog posts, tweets, Flickr pictures, and Facebook likes.
As someone who has had her own words from her blogs, fiction, and poetry remixed in divorce court by a human aggregator with an agenda, I know first hand that having your personal narrative reframed by someone who doesn't care about you or having your personal data reported inaccurately can do harm. Consider what can happen when someone actually alters something you wrote and buries it in boxes that contain years of your online writing. What happens when you learn that either a sentence you wrote was altered or a judge possibly misread a few words to say something that they do not say and then bases a ruling on that misread? File this consideration under abuse and misuse of "public" information.
But back to the Spokeo issue. We've heard it said that "it's all fun and games until someone loses an eye." My concern about Spokeo and sites like it is similar: it's all harmless information until a stalker uses it to find the object of his/her obsession or an ex-spouse uses it, assumes the information is true, and takes negative action in response. That sounds far-fetched, but without going into details, I will tell you that it can and does happen.
For years now I've been pondering how what we reveal about ourselves online as well as how what others say about us can be used for good or evil. How do readers—strangers, potential employers, even friends—by their own interpretations remix us with their commentary on our words and pictures? They in essence become additional authors of our lives, altering its chapters. That's the philosophical side of how our lives are being affected by digital social media as well as changes in concepts of privacy.
The practical side is that we may be saying good-bye to privacy and short of living off the grid, we may have to consign ourselves to a continuous leak of our personal data. Will these revelations illuminate our lives and heal us the way, for instance, Oprah believes the latest unveiling of another family secret—her having a half-sister—has done, or will the crafting of more public lives be our undoing?
Even Oprah, a woman who has lived very publicly, is sensitive to this question. She wanted to control how the world learned about this new chapter in her life. She feared that if she didn't tell her news first, gossip tabloids and bloggers (yes, she said bloggers) would alter the narrative in a negative way, and Patricia's understanding that this private information should not be made public without family consensus seems to have endeared her to her famous sister even more.
For us less public people, however, the revelation of our personal business is usually unwelcomed. Nevertheless, I think for us it's also a matter of our ability to control the narrative. Who gets our information and how they use it, how they tell our stories and to whom they tell them, is our real concern, isn't it? A stranger knowing our address and by that being able to guess our income or a passerby seeing us drive into an elementary school parking lot to deliver a forgotten lunch and so can guess we have children is not new nor does it fill us with dread. What's new is that strangers today, armed with cell phone cameras, texting programs, and access to the Internet, may broadcast our information to people we don't know and don't want to know, and that makes all the difference.

Tell Mom about your accident
'Mom!' Hazel shouts. 'I've wet the bed!'
A couple of seconds of silence follow, then the door bursts open. Quickly, Hazel wipes the grin off her face.
'My bed is soaked!' she exclaims.
'That's right!' replies her Mom strictly. 'Do you have any sense, Hazel? We may as well have you in pull-ups for this!'

Report: Sudan is supporting rebels in South Sudan
JUBA, South Sudan — Sudan has supplied weapons and ammunition to rebels fighting neighboring South Sudan's government, says a report from the Small Arms Survey, an independent Swiss research group.
Sudan denies having links to rebels led by David Yau Yau, who is based in the restive Jonglei state. But the research group says it has evidence Sudan airdropped weapons to the rebels between August and December last year.

New palaeomagnetic data from 106 $^{14}$C-dated lava flows ranging in age from 200 to 31 000 years B.P. yield an estimated angular dispersion value of 9.5 degrees. These data and other new geological information permit a more precise estimate of the time interval recorded by lava flow sequences previously used to measure palaeosecular variation in Hawaii. When weighted according to revised estimates of recording interval, the combined Brunhes lava sequences yield an angular dispersion of 11.2$_{-0.8}^{+0.9}$ degrees, still lower than that predicted by global models of the secular variation. Several of the lava flow sequences previously thought to have recorded quiet intervals of geomagnetic behaviour actually record only very short time intervals. Recent analyses by Duncan (1975), McElhinny & Merrill (1975) and Coe et al. (1978) have suggested that geomagnetic secular variation reported previously from Hawaii by Doell & Cox (1965, 1971, 1972) and Doell (1972a, b) was unduly biased toward low values. This suggestion was made on the grounds that the Puna and Kau series data, which made up nearly half of the original data set used by Doell & Cox, record a very short time interval. With the addition of new $^{14}$C and geological data, it is now clear that the grounds for this suggestion were well founded, as the best estimates now available indicate that the sequences in question accumulated over time intervals of 500 years or less. However, new data from $^{14}$C-dated flows, when combined with the previously available data, yield dispersion values consistent with the original dispersion estimate of 10.8 degrees by Doell & Cox (1972). This is true regardless of whether the `suspect' Kau and Hamakua series data are included with their original weighting, or with a more reasonable attenuated weighting, as discussed above. The Puna series are not included in an overall estimate of dispersion, as they represent a very short time interval that is adequately covered by the $^{14}$C series data set. Having recognized that some lava sequences in Hawaii probably record only a very short time interval, it seems reasonable to reconsider the concept of `quiet' and `noisy' behaviour of the geomagnetic field, as proposed by Cox (1975). For Brunhes-age lavas, three sequences had suggested `quiet' behaviour and two of these (Puna and Kau) can be shown to have artificially low angular dispersion values resulting from a sampling bias. The remaining Hamakua series data are more equivocal, since there is no direct evidence available to constrain the interval of their accumulation. However, it is equally likely that the Hamakua series also represents a short interval. If this is indeed correct, then the `quiet' and `noisy' subdivision would be an artificial one, at least on a 10$^{3}$ to 10$^{4}$ year timescale. However, as noted by Kawai et al. (1973), quiet and noisy behaviour on a timescale of 2-3 $\times $ 10$^{5}$ years may be possible. The apparently low overall dispersion from Brunhes-age lavas in the Hawaiian Islands may reflect such behaviour.

Sample 5 x 5 Risk Assessment Matrix
The matrix works by selecting the appropriate consequences from across the bottom, and then cross referencing against the row containing the likelihood, to read off the estimated risk rating.
Probability x Severity version supplied by John Cronjaeger, Airworthiness Technical Assistant, London Executive Aviation Ltd
Looking for software to manage your company H&S risk assessments?
Risk Rating is calculated by multiplying the likelihood against the consequences, e.g. taking a likelihood of 4, which is classified as Probable, and multiplying this against a consequence of 2, which is classified as a Minor Injury 1st aid required, would give you and overall risk rating of 8, which would be risk rated as a low risk.
Low risk equals 1 to 8.
Low Risks are largely acceptable, subject to reviews periodically, or after significant change etc...
Medium risk equals 9 to 15.
Medium Risks should only be tolerated for the short-term and then only whilst further control measures to mitigate the risk are being planned and introduced, within a defined time period. Note: Medium risks can be an organisations greatest risk, it's Achilles heel, this due to the fact that they can be tolerated in the short-term.
High risk equals 16 to 25.
High Risks activities should cease immediately until further control measures to mitigate the risk are introduced.
Faults in the 5x5 matrix.
The 5 x 5 matrix below shows more readily that risks may not always be broadly classified in to three categories. If we take the two extremes of the medium risk range in the matrix above, we can see that both 9 and 15 sit in the yellow range. However, in the matrix below 9 sits just above and moving out of the green, whereas 15 sits just below and moving into the red range. It can become all to easy for potential risks to be classified in the medium range and management to undertake a tick the box exercise...

Stretch Marks: None still, thank goodness! But the very faint "line" below the belly button is still there...not any darker though.
Movement: She's sort of slowed down this week. I don't know if it's because I've been sick or she's just moving in the middle of the night when I'm asleep, but not as many jabs and kicks...a lot of rolling around though.
Sleep: Terrible, but not because of pregnancy. I still have this miserable crud, and I can't stop coughing! I have finally broken down and taken Tylenol PM the past couple of nights...I had to so I could at least get some sleep. It's my best friend right now!
What I miss: Well, once again not pregnancy related, but not coughing. It got real old, real quick.
What I am looking forward to: Our showers start next weekend!
Cravings/Aversions: Really not anything...sweets still.
Symptoms: Still lots of Braxton Hicks, but the breathing has been MUCH better this week...maybe she's starting to drop just a little? It might be too early, but I've noticed a big difference. And the mood swings, y'all...say a prayer for my husband. It doesn't take much to set me off these days.
Best Moment This Week: Hmm...it hasn't been a very eventful week honestly. I did love having Monday off to get lots of things ready though!

Almost 30,000 football fans have signed a petition on the 10 Downing Street website, arguing Paisley deserves more than the OBE he was awarded in his lifetime. Now a motion has been tabled in the House of Commons backing the call for a knighthood, attracting six signatures.
Mr Howarth told BBC Radio 4's Today programme: "The fans have really initiated this. They have gone on to the Downing Street website and started a petition asking for a posthumous award for Bob Paisley. I am really trying to support them."
He added: "In football terms, (the motion) is very ecumenical. I deliberately wanted to make it like that, because it is about Merseyside, the club and the man.
"Above all, he was a man respected by people whether Evertonians, Liverpudlians or people not interested in football at all."
Mr Howarth's motion hails Paisley as "the most successful football manager in the game's history in the UK... highly respected and held in great affection for his outstanding knowledge and experience of the game and for his modesty".
It backs the petition launched by Ian Little on the No 10 website, which had gathered 29,687 signatures by Tuesday morning.
The petition compares Paisley's OBE with the knighthood granted to Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson for achieving the treble of European Cup, Premiership and FA Cup in 1999.
"Bob Paisley was England's best ever manager and won the European Cup three times while manager of Liverpool yet only ever received an OBE," states the petition.
"He also won the domestic league title six of the nine years he was in charge. Alex Ferguson has only won the European Cup once, yet received a knighthood. This is not equitable!"Reuse content

Beachcroft Wansbroughs has made up three partners, all female, in its smallest round of promotions for three years.
The new partners are based in London and Leeds and see the firm strengthen some of its core practice areas.
In Beachcrofts' core insurance sector, London-based injury risk solicitor Paula Jefferson becomes a partner. She is joined by Suzanne Wharton, who practises professional risk out of Leeds. The third new partner is projects specialist Jane Staveley, who works from London.
In 2005 the firm made up five partners, two of whom were women, but with a similar practice area focus.
Beachcrofts has also promoted 19 assistants to the role of associate. They are spread across the firm's offices in London, Bristol, Leeds, Birm-ingham, Manchester and Winchester, and include five in the injury risk team, four employment lawyers and four commercial property lawyers. Just six of the 19 are male.
The firm now has more than 200 assistants and 119 associates.

Last night the opportunity ended, as fighting was reported 30 miles to the north between the two factions of the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA). The UN decided not to fly here for several days because of the reports. Although the town has been peaceful for the past few days, the World Food Programme has not delivered food since last Wednesday. No reason has been given, and last night a senior UN official contacted in Lokichoggio, the UN base in northern Kenya, said he was too busy to talk to the Independent.
The food delivered last week was immediately distributed, and many people have not eaten since. They have been weakened by months of hunger, and some are already dying. According to the local relief committee, 40,000 people are registered for food aid.
Every morning hundreds of very hungry people arrive from surrounding areas. They walk slowly out of the scrub which stretches across this vast plain: very tall, very black people. Some have a blanket and car-tyre sandals; some have a stick and a necklace of cowrie shells. Many have nothing. They come naked. All are starving.
They have been drawn by a regular supply of food that began on 16 April. Then it dried up and they now hang around the airstrip waiting. Most of them are sleeping in the open and have nothing more than a blanket.
The room for new arrivals in the feeding centre is a horror of black skeletons with skin and huge dark eyes. Mothers with withered breasts wave flies away from the faces of their babies. The babies, like grotesque foetal corpses, lie and stare intently. They never make a sound.
The fighting is a new round of the two-year war between the two wings of the SPLA. It has split along tribal lines: Dinka and Nuer. This Dinka area was ravaged by a Nuer invasion two years ago. All the cattle were killed or stolen, which is why these people are starving. One old man said: 'Even for our oldest men this was unimaginable. Nothing like this has ever happened in the remembered history of the Dinka people.' Each household used to have 30 head of cattle, each named and cherished. The Dinka can live off milk alone for weeks on end.
Last month the Dinka wing, led by John Garang, swept back into Kongor and then drove the Nuer, led by Riak Machar, into his own territory. The Dinka sacked the small Nuer town of Ayod and are still chasing Riak's forces. The two tribes have a history of cattle-raiding, but this is total war - fought with Kalashnikovs and rocket-launchers - and will result in mass starvation.
There is no food in Kongor, and last night Philip Aguer, co-ordinator for the local Sudan Relief and Rehabilitation Commission, decided to distribute seed meant for planting, which was being stored in the warehouse. Once that has been eaten, people will starve.
The present fighting is occurring about 30 miles to the north, at Duk, but there are fears in the UN Operation Lifeline Sudan headquarters that the Nuer may attack Kongor. As a result of these fears, which are based on little more than rumour, the UN has said it will not go into Kongor for several days. As in Somalia, where the UN decided to withdraw because of insecurity, the organisation is ordering its staff to take no risks. And, again as in Somalia, the small private aid agencies are continuing to work in areas considered unsafe by the UN.
Goal, the Irish aid agency, has been advised by the UN not to send its three nurses into Kongor for a few days. They fly daily into Kongor to run the children's feeding centre there. However, the nurses and their pilot said they would make a final decision in the morning.
Yesterday the town was quiet, but about 30 wounded fighters were brought in during the day, and aid workers in the Nuer area said they, too, were seeing returning wounded.
Another disturbing factor is rain. It will make life even worse for those camping out, increasing malaria and water-borne disease. Worst of all, it will prevent aircraft from landing on the airstrip. Last night as the sun went down there was an ominous peal of thunder.

Would You Want A Celebrity Crashing Your Wedding?
This past weekend tennis star Serena Williams crashed a wedding in Malibu wearing a leopard bathing suit. She took pictures with the happy couple and they looked thrilled.

This seems to be a trend right now. Every now and then you see an article on line or report on the news of a celebrity seeing a wedding ceremony going on and they crash the wedding. Bon Jovi did it and John Travolta too.
My question is:
Would you want a celebrity crashing your wedding or is that too big of a distraction on your big day?
Tell me all about it below!

How Many Cc's Do You Think I Might Need? (photo)
Doctor Answers 4
Brazilian Buttock Lift amount
Thank you for posting pictures. You are nearly an ideal candidate for Autologous Fat Transfer (BBL). You would need sculpting of the abdomen, flanks, back and thighs. After a purification process, you would need approximately 800-1000cc per buttock. More important than the amount of fat is where the fat is placed for a lifted and shapely look. Also sculpting of the region above the buttocks is equally as important in providing an aesthetic form and illusion of size.
Web reference: https://www.aristocratps.com/body/brazilian-butt-lift-new-york/
You probably need 900-1000cc per side for your BBL
Looking at your photos, you likely require about 900-1000cc per side to get the result you desire. You really need an in-person consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon who specializes in BBL. Find a surgeon who does at least 4-5 per week as BBL is a very specialized area of plastic surgery.

How Many CC per Buttock with Brazilian Buttlift
First, you are a great candidate for Brazilian buttlift, and you can have a dramatic transformation. I typically liposuction 5 liters and transfer 1200 cc to 1500 cc per buttock. The person in your wish pic has very small legs and waist and this makes her buttocks appear larger. For you, your legs are larger, and your buttocks will have to be larger to create that illusion. I would probably transfer at least 1000 cc per buttock. Find the plastic surgeon with ELITE credentials who performs hundreds of Braziilian buttlifts each year. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

The strike began after a clash between supporters of SP MLA Irfan Solanki and junior doctors of GSV Medical College, Kanpur. The doctors were accused of manhandling the MLA and many junior doctors were booked.
Strike began after a clash between supporters of SP MLA Irfan Solanki and docs
Faculty members of some colleges had also joined the strike. Reportedly, more than 8,000 patients were affected due to non-availability of medical services in Kanpur. Reportedly, 8 patients died on Monday due to inavailablity of medical services.
Though chief minister Akhilesh Yadav tried to pacify the doctors, they demanded that the cases against them be withdrawn. The doctors also demanded action against Kanpur police chief and SP MLA.
Allahabad high court had asked the doctors to call off their strike on Tuesday.The court on Wednesday ordered a judicial probe and directed the UP government to transfer SSP, Kanpur, Yashaswi Yadav, and other officials involved in the February 28 incident.
Taking suo motu cognisance, the Lucknow bench comprising justices Imtiyaz Murtaza and Devendra Kumar Upadhaya clarified that the order of transfer is only to resolve the situation and should not be taken as a "stigma" on the officials, while requesting the doctors to resume their duties immediately.
As the court assembled this morning, it directed that the matter be registered as a PIL and sought replies from principal secretary medical/health, SGPGI administrator and others by March 10, the next date of hearing.

West Ham face competition from three other bidders wanting to become tenants of the Olympic Stadium, the Olympic Park Legacy Company (OPLC) confirmed today.
West Ham, who won the now-disbanded process to move to the stadium in Stratford, east London, after the London 2012 Games, have confirmed they are one of the bidders.
An OPLC spokesman said: "We have received four bids from parties interested in using the stadium after the Games.
"The Legacy Company will shortly start its evaluation process, with the aim of announcing which concessionaires will occupy the stadium alongside athletics before the Games.
"Legacy planning is further ahead than any previous Olympic host city.
"The stadium will become the new national centre for athletics and host of the 2017 World Athletics Championships and we remain on course to reopen the stadium as a multi-purpose venue in 2014."
The OPLC will start evaluating the four bids with the aim of making a decision before this summer's Games.
By today's noon deadline for submissions, the 16 would-be bidders who had shown an interest at the start of this new process had gone down to four.
A statement on West Ham's club website read: "West Ham United vice-chairman Karren Brady has today confirmed the club's intention to submit a bid by lunchtime (Friday 23 March) to be the anchor user of the Olympic Stadium post-Games in line with the OPLC deadline."
The original deal gave the Hammers, along with partner Newham Council, the keys to the stadium after the Games but it collapsed after it became hamstrung by a series of legal challenges from rival football clubs, including Tottenham and Leyton Orient, plus another anonymous party.
West Ham have applied for a 99-year lease of the stadium, which is reported to have cost £486 million to build.
Ms Brady said: "Having spent the last two years dedicated to this project, I am privileged to once more be submitting West Ham United's bid to become the anchor concessionaire of the Olympic Stadium post-the 2012 Games.
"From the outset it has been my firm, unwavering belief that the stadium can truly become a multi-use destination of which east London and the nation as a whole can be proud.
"I have never lost sight of our vision to play our part, along with the stadium's major stakeholders, in ensuring it grows into a global asset, the 'jewel in the crown' of the (Olympic) Park that will be watched by the world.
"Our vision for the stadium has always been about standing up for the promises made for London back in Singapore in 2005 and what they meant for our future generations. We are honoured to have once more received the support and backing of our friends at UK Athletics.
"I would like to thank the many West Ham supporters who have given their time to share their opinions on our proposed move ahead of this decision and despite the considerable constraints and confidentiality agreements we were required to enter into, I can assure them their feedback has been instrumental in informing the board's approach to our bid."
Despite being third in the npower Championship, West Ham are not assured of promotion after their poor recent form and there is no guarantee that the Londoners will be able to fill the 60,000-capacity ground if the club wins the tenancy battle.
Co-owners David Gold and David Sullivan have said they remain fully committed to the idea of leaving Upton Park.
In a joint statement, they said: "As we have always said, we remain committed to this magnificent stadium and provided we are able to offer a world-class stadium for football for our prolific, loyal and passionate supporters, we believe there is nobody better placed to help deliver the legacy for the East End community than us.
"This area - the one from which we both originate - deserves a true and lasting legacy to follow the 2012 Games. It will be a tremendous event that the whole world will be watching and will therefore present a real opportunity to showcase the UK at its best. However, the showcase must not stop there.
"We know that using the stadium as our home will bring with it huge responsibility, but we are fully committed to making it our home for at least the next 99 years. We will take on with pride the mantle of what that means in terms of giving something back to the community."

"I guess I didn't expect any better from him {Martin Kristen} I would have preferred Heidi show a little bit more class and at least wait until we separated first before deciding to fornicate with the help as it were," Seal told TMZ as he walked through the airport, insinuating that the relationship with Heidi and her body guard of 4 years began before he and Klum announced their split in January. "But I guess you now all have the answer that you've been looking for the past seven months."
Seal gives up the skeletons in the closet!! It seems that maybe Seal thinks there had been a little something going on with Heidi and her body guard, Martin Kristen.
"To be quite honest, if there is going to be somebody else in their lives, I'd much rather it was a familiar face," Seal goes on to say to TMZ at the airport.
Well , well Heidi. the body guard seems to have certainly lived up to his title! Seal seems to think he has been guarding your body zealously.
They all enjoyed a vacation together with Heidi's parents.
Enjoying some exercise in the city together.
Seal, you may be upset, but remember, whatever you say now to the press will be found on Google by your kids in the future. There is a reason for the saying "Skeletons in your closet". This one should have a nice little shelf that you stick it on and never go there again, at least in public, for the children's sake.

~ I just switched to this dentist. I did a crown, two veneers and a bridge here. I am sooooo glad that I switched to Dr. Yang. My old dentist did a crown on me. I spent much more money on the work. But turned out the bite was not even right. I couldn't bite on it correctly for a few years, but I thought this was just how it was. After Dr. Yang's work, I can't believe I can use my right side again chew on just like my real teeth. The color of the two veneers matched very well. My friends couldn't even tell which ones are the veneers and which ones are my real teeth. I am happy to smile now. You can find a cheap dentist and fix your teeth for a few dollars anywhere. I have been to some of the dentists my friends recommended and was not really satisfied with the work. Comparing the quality of the Dr. Yang's work, he is worth the money.
~ Always professional and courteous. Dr. Yang is patient, fast, and gentle!
~ I love the staff. They know our family and are always helpful.
~ The staff at this office are very friendly and great to deal and chat with. I always enjoy coming here.
~ It is difficult to find a good dentist and this is most definitely one. I have always been treated well by the doctor and staff.

We needed a rental while our home was being built in Vero Beach. The Christensen's condo in Grand Harbor is in a great location, convenient to everything. Grand Harbor is quiet, clean, and well maintained. There are many amenities to take advantage of, golf, swimming, yoga classes, walking, parties, just to name a few. The condo itself has a beautiful view of the 18th fairway as well as the lush landscaping of Grand Harbor. The condo is quiet, comfortable, homey, clean, well maintained, and well stocked. You just need a toothbrush and clothing. The Christensens were more than accommodating when our closing date was delayed and we needed to extend our stay. Communication was excellent and prompt. I would definitely recommend this property. It was a lovely place to stay and Bill and Kim were a pleasure to deal with. Eileen and Al Koehler
Wow! Grand Harbor is one of the loveliest places in Vero. We were taken aback by the personal attention to detail by the owners in welcoming us. Everything you could imagine is in the Condo and they have put a lot of effort into making it a home away from home. We had a beautiful panoramic view of the immaculate grounds and the 18th fairway. We actually now refer it to home when we are out. We were welcomed by cold water, a very modern and clean condo and wine. We went out to buy a few things to eat until we got settled in and realized we didn't need to buy the basics because the owners had already stocked the condo with paper towel, toilet paper, salt & pepper, coffee etc. It was truly one of the nicest surprises we have ever had on a vacation. The owner, personally oversees the rental so they are intimately involved in every detail – which makes it very comfortable.
Since being here we have played golf nearly every day. We have seen dolphins and manatees not to mention lots of beautiful birds and a few gators around the courses. The owner and development is very pet friendly. We enjoyed walking our two small dogs around the harbor every evening. Grand Harbor has two courses so there is no problem getting a tee time. After my first outing in the weekly men's group, I was invited to play with several smaller daily groups. The regulars are some of the nicest people we have ever met. We made friends and even was surprised by gifts from several neighbors. Just a wonderful place.
The condo is located centrally in the development with easy access to the stores, old Vero, US 1, I95 etc. Through the rental you have access to the Beach Club which is another wonderful unexpected amenity. We visited several times and had beachside service of lunch and drinks.
Overall – Excellent, perfect. We are sorry to leave. We will be back or we will be buying our own place here. We liked it that much – and although we never met the owners they were wonderful to work with.
The owners of this property were most concerned with the renter's comfort. The condo was thoughtfully stocked and the 50 inch flat screen TV was a big plus. The bicycles were another big plus. We would definately recommend this property to any of our friends!!

Niceties first: our "dear" leader Gillard turns 50 today; bully for her, and many happy returns, PM. But a present from the so-called first bloke — a "cavoodle" puppy — is entirely inappropriate and a bloody outrage to boot, all things considered.
I think about it all the time, that birthday ten years after the one I'm staring down the barrel of next August. 50! What a milestone! But let's be generous; this post tonight is part-political only, and part comment.
And so I would like to wish Prime Minister Gillard a very happy 50th birthday; I have always been insistent that politicians be recognised as people first and politicians second, and in that spirit I trust that Julia has had a really nice day.
And I hope one of her presents was a voucher to a shrink so her "first bloke" could get his head read.
What the hell was Tim Mathieson thinking?
It's all very nice to buy someone a pet as a present — until they realise it's for life.
I have a two-year-old daughter and we have two cats, but recently I took her to Southland and she was craning her neck to see puppies in a cage at the pet shop, saying "Doggie! Doggie!" and pointing and giggling, all excited.
We weren't actually at the pet shop, but on the travelator going up a level and the pet shop — unfortunately — was in her line of sight.
It's bad enough with a little kid foreshadowing trouble on that count, let alone a 50-year-old.
Yet the pet shop story is a nice segue to part of my point.
It's emerged this afternoon on 3AW's Drive program — featuring Tom Elliott filling in for Derryn Hinch — that the puppy was sourced from a puppy farm.
Not a reputable, independent breeder, but a puppy farm.
And the problem with puppy farms is this: some are very ethical, very clean, scrupulous in their treatment of their animals, their breeding practices and the attention paid to things like veterinary health, pedigrees, and so forth.
Others aren't.
And irrespective of which of the two categories into which the particular puppy farm in question falls, Mathieson — politically — has done Julia Gillard no favours.
The issue of puppy farms — much like battery hens — is one increasingly under the spotlight, with calls to outlaw them altogether growing louder.
And so, Mathieson's gift potentially dumps Gillard into a political storm around animal cruelty, the ethics of factory-farming pets, and puts her on a collision course with respected bodies such as the RSPCA.
The other part of my point comes to what on Earth the Prime Minister is going to do with a dog at all.
It's true US Presidents like to keep dogs; these are however usually (but not always) for show, and mostly have more of a relationship with Presidential aides than they do with Presidents themselves.
(That fact, at the minimum, ought to have sounded a warning note to Mathieson).
It's also true that former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd tried to make his cat — Jasper — a Prime Ministerial feature; indeed, Jasper the cat was mercilessly put about by Rudd for years before he ever led the ALP. Before Rudd led it, that is…
But Jasper had already been a family pet of the Rudds; very different to this.
I know that other Prime Ministerial families have kept pets; my problem on this occasion is partly the puppy farm aspect, and partly the present PM's lifestyle.
In a comment bound to enrage owners of "cavoodles" who may be reading and for which I make no apology, Mathieson didn't even buy a real dog: he went for one of these trendy inter-bred designer things that frankly shouldn't even exist.
What about a Labrador, or a German Shepherd, or (my favourite) a Bernese Mountain Dog? All real breeds, all unswervingly loyal, all very well-natured if raised correctly, and all available from extremely reputable purebred breeders across the country.
But the real cruelty — if we accept that this puppy has been sourced from a farm that is good to its animals — lies in the life it can expect.
Elliott on 3AW today was right: Gillard will never be home.
Her life involves extensive trips overseas and extensive domestic travel; and in the absence of those considerations, it involves long, irregular and unpredictable hours in Canberra.
It also involves periods when she must of course be in Melbourne to hold surgeries for her local constituents in Lalor.
How is the poor dog to ever develop a routine?
Or to even bond with its mistress?
I wish the Prime Minister the very best for her birthday; on this one occasion, it's not her politics that's in question, but the judgement of her partner.
And I really don't like the idea of puppies from puppy farms: I hope all such animals find happy lives in loving homes, but there are too many questions around that "industry" for me to give it any overall sanction whatsoever.
I've been accused of a lot of things over the years: conservative troglodyte, dry as biscuits, too old-school, old-style Tory. Oh, and arrogant, belligerent, and the labels the Left throws at people on my side because they think they should — Fascist, that type of thing.
You name it and I've heard it: and half the time at least, I'll wear it as a badge of honour on account of an impervious hide and an utter confidence in my convictions. 🙂
But when it comes to our friends on four legs, they too need to be treated with dignity and respect; THAT is why I am outraged that such a prominent individual as Tim Mathieson should buy a farmed puppy as a gift for the Prime Minister; and THAT is why I am outraged that this dog will probably end up being a consolation pet gifted to some staffer at The Lodge charged with its immediate needs of upkeep.
Unless, of course, Gillard already knows she's moving back to Melbourne soon…
Happy birthday, Prime Minister.
What do you think?
