7-week-old refuses to nurseMay 2003
I'm looking for other mothers who have had similar difficulties breastfeeding. My fourth child is now 7 weeks old, and refuses to nurse. His tongue is short, his chin recedes, and his palate is very high. All this combines to make nursing very challenging. I've been pumping and feeding him expressed milk in bottles. My lactation consultants agree that he will likely figure it out as he gets stronger, hopefully by three months or so. I'd love to hear from mothers who have had similar experiences. AW
I had a very similar experience with my firstborn. His tongue was stuck to the roof of his mouth for the first 8 weeks or so of his life -- the lactation consultant had us using a bottle a couple of times a day, and a nipple shield whenever I tried to nurse, to force his tongue to stay down far enough so that he was actually able to latch on (my nipples were also pretty flat, which didn't help matters). It was very frustrating, and took a long time for us to figure out. I remember that when my son was 6 weeks old, my husband comforted me by telling me that I was 25% of the way to 6 months, and that I could quit then if I wanted. But what do you know, sometime between 2 and 3 months, we were slowly able to lose the nipple shield; by 3 months my son could nurse comfortably without it in any situation, including in public. And by 6 months, there was no way I wanted to quit; nursing was so easy, and so convenient (no bottles and formula to bring), that I couldn't imagine feeding my son without it. It just took a lot of persistence in the beginning. Basically, I was just stubborn enough to keep at it until my son (and I) figured it out. Karen
Dear A,
I had the same problem with my nearly four week old. One of the postpartum nurses recommended using a Medela silicon nipple shield - it elongates the nipple for easier latching. It worked well for us. Good luck and congratulations! Shirley
7-month-old has starting refusing the breastOctober 2002
My seven-month old has always been a good nurser. Since the introduction of solids and a three-day a week babysitter, though, his pattern has changed. He sometimes rejects the breast. I thought it was just teething and then an ear infection. Now he is well, though, and while he almost always nurses again, he will only do so when we are stretched out on the bed. Each time I try to sit up to nurse he will pull away. I am hell bent on nursing a year, but clearly this is going to be tough for public nursing, travel, etc. Anybody have a similar experience? I was afraid he already wanted to wean, but he is nursing with gusto if we are laying down. Lynn
My baby was always a good nurser... but only when there were no distractions. Even when he was only a few months old he would whip his head around when he heard Daddy's footsteps coming close. As he got older the problem got worse (rejection!), so we just stopped nursing in public. That didn't always work (i.e. traveling) but most of the time it was fine -- and when he really needed it, like on long plane rides, he could concentrate.
As he started really drinking from a cup better, eating solids, and being with a nanny all day (8 mo.) we switched to nursing only in the morning and at night out of necessity.
Now he's 11 months and we only nurse at night and in the morning. If we are in a public place -- even at a friend's house -- he postpones his nursing time until we go home and sit in the rocking chair by ourselves. He still nurses well during those times, but it is very clear when he is finished and doesn't want more. And no distractions -- or else rejection or biting!
My advice: set up a routine and a quiet place to nurse your baby -- if he insists on the bed, keep it that way. He may be starting the weaning process... but my guess is that he's just starting to know and express what he likes -- nursing lying down in a comfy, quiet place. When you're in public, give him pumped milk in a cup or bottle (if you're lucky enough that he takes one). Good luck. I hope you're able to nurse him as long as you want. Maria
Although I planned to nurse longer, my daughter self-weaned at 7 months. She seemed to be ready to look around and experience what was going on around her, and if she could do so and still eat from a bottle or tippy cup, then that worked for her. She is now 2.5 and perfectly happy and healthy.
My baby did exactly the same thing at the same age! The same thrusting of the head as I tried in vain to shove my breast in his mouth! He, too, only wanted to nurse if we were in bed, where he would fall asleep. So be it. I gave up trying, because he simply did not was to nurse except at night. No advice here, only that my baby also did this, and now only nurses to fall asleep. Marya
A ''nursing strike'' of some sort is very common around 7-9 months and it often is related to teething and/or illness. A cold or ear infection can especially cause the sort of thing you describe, where the baby insists on nursing only in a particular position, because other positions may be uncomfortable with a stuffed up nose or painful ears.
The good news is that since your baby does still nurse, and has taken well to eating solid foods, you don't have too much of a problem. The laying-down-only thing will probably resolve itself with a little time and patience, and if he is hungry when you are out in public you can simply offer water and solid food snacks if he won't ''nurse nicely''. The ''nurse nicely'' is something you need to start teaching anyway; he is old enough to learn that he only gets the good stuff if he refrains from pulling on your shirt, gymnastics, or any other behavior you might find acceptable at home but not in public. (Do be aware of it if he doesn't seem to be nursing enough, though -- the total amount of breastmilk he gets shouldn't be too much affected by his increasing solids intake for at least another couple months. If that happens you may need to stay at home a little more for a while.)
If you'd like more advice and support on this or any nursing question, subscribe to the Usenet group misc.kids.breastfeeding. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Holly (still successfully nursing her 21-month-old)
8-month-old's nursing strikeApril 2002
My 8 month old son has always nursed and never taken a bottle. He also eats soft foods at meal times. A week ago, we went out of town and after the first day, he refused to nurse. I rented a pump and he has been drinking my milk from a spouted a cup. We're back home now, but he still adamantly refuses nursing. I'm hoping that this is not a permanent change and am interested in ideas to help bring him back to nursing. I've tried quiet room, warm bath, sleepy. My older son nursed for 18 months & then was difficult to wean so this would be a big change from that situation. Our pediatrician thinks he is just ready to be finished nursing. Perhaps I need to honor this and not keep pushing? Thanks for any input. Lianne
Could your body be getting ready to resume menstruation? My baby went on a nursing strike when she was 11 months old during an out of town visit. It turned out the problem was that my periods were starting again. She seems to be sensitive to a change in my smell or a change in breastmilk taste right before my periods start. She went right back to nursing after my period started. Now she still nurses when I am pre-menstrual, but she is not as enthusiastic. jeanne
My daughter went on a nursing strike at 7 mos. I finally discovered that she would nurse in bed, lying down. For at least a month that was the only way she would nurse. I consulted Sears The Baby Book for ideas (try different nursing positions). This advice is available online at AskDrSears.com:
Here are a few things you can do to get through and encourage baby to begin nursing again:
* Try ''sneaking'' the breast in during the night, or during the day when baby is half asleep.
* Spend a lot a skin-to-skin time with baby without specifically trying to offer the breast.
* Try to nurse baby in an unusual situation, such as walking around or other moving situation.
* Try a variety of positions.
Good luck getting through this hard time. susan
I would disagree with your pediatrician; babies do not wean before a year.
If you want to continue the nursing relationship, try going topless at home, if she is mobile, try lying down topless (I did this with #3 - she'd ''cruise by nurse'') or spending a lazy day in bed with lots of water and constant breast access (by your baby). My #3 started walking at 8mo, so she was MUCH more interested in walking than nursing. :)
THis is a time when night nursing is so important - she'll make up at night for her lack of day nursing (at least that has been my experience). Kathy
Eight months is a really common age for a nursing strike, and it sounds like you are doing all the right things.
As for your peds advice - if you WANT to wean, this would obviously be an easy time to do so. If you DONT' want to wean, I don't think you should let your ped or anyone else try to make you feel guilty for persisting. After all, when your little one is 18 months old and running around at the park, and doesn't want to stop and have a much-needed snack, everyone would think you are a great mom for insisting that he or she take some time out for a nutritious break, right? I fail to see how this is any different.
When my son would occassionally get too busy to nurse very often (he has yet to stage a full-blown strike) I found it helpful to keep myself in very close proximity (on the floor, playing together) and offer really frequently. REALLY frequently, like every 20 minutes. And super, super low-key. He would take me up on it for maybe 2 minutes at a time, and then at the end of a few days figure out that he could be a big guy with a bright, new, shiny skill (walking, or a new word, or whatever) and STILL nurse! Whoopee!
Best, Debbi
i'd keep up with the different things you're trying, at least for a while. i'd also contact a la leche league leader for help--they may have more ideas. it sounds like you want him to nurse as long as your first, and i say keep pushing! not to lambaste your pediatrician, but i don't think there are eight month olds who 'wean' themselves--i think pediatricians (and other people) who are afraid of extended nursing and don't know enough about breastfeeding (extended for many being beyond six months!) often say stuff like that without thinking more creatively about how to get over this strike period and extend your valuable nursing relationship. jessica
My daughter went on strike at about 6 months. It seemed to happen after she bit me and I reacted by suddely stopping nursing and saying ouch loudly, I know I startled her a lot (as she had me). It was also around the time we were in flux with nannies. I called all over and none of the regular advice worked. Finally what I found was that she would nurse when she was really sleepy after just having woken from a nap or the night. I would go to her, the minute I would hear her stir and nurse her. This went on for a week or so and gradually she would nurse at other times but it always had to be in a quiet spot, otherwise she would just want to look around. We happily continued the nursing relationship another 10 months until just last weekend when we finished a long slow weaning process. I remember however how emotionally distressing the strike was for me, I felt so sad and rejected. Good luck! Lissa Biddle
I am so sympathetic to what you must be going through. When my son was nine months old he abruptly stopped nursing for what turned out to be exactly seven days (to the feeding!) I was frantic and tried EVERYTHING, he had never taken a bottle but I kept pumping, put breast milk in a bottle one day and he took that thing like a pro. I never did determine what happened, and we continued to breastfeed til just after his first birthday when he slowly weaned himself. I do seem to remember that my period started around the time he was ten months, so there may have been some changes in the milk...I just don't know. The advantage after that episode was that he was willing to take a bottle, which was helpful. Hang in there! Carolyn
When my daughter was 7mths. old, we went to england and the same thing happened. No matter how hard i tried she simply would not nurse. I now think that a change in the water/food changed the taste of my milk. Even though you are feeding your son your milk now that you are back home, he may associate the breast with the different taste he experienced while you were away. maybe there's something in this, i don't know. Anon.
My situation wasn't entirely the same a yours, but maybe this will help or inspire you anyway. When I returned to work my 4 month old was taking bottled breast milk 3 times a day and I was finding she much preferred the bottle, as it was a faster and more consistent flow. She was getting very frustrated with the breast waiting for the let down and would cry and cry and not continue to suck such that the let down would never come. It was very upsetting for me, but it was important for me to continue to nurse so I persisted. Sometimes I would pump a little before nursing her so the let down was already there when I put her to the breast or I would try to feed her before she was starved so she had more patience waiting for the let down. For the most part we have worked through it and she is nursing (she is 8 months now), although I think she still would prefer the bottle, at least during the day. Good luck. Karyn
I didn't see the whole post, but a mom had posted apparently about a young baby rejecting the breast earlier than a year. My two younger sons both rejected just shy of a year, but I found out later that the youngest rejected because I had gotten ''serious'' about losing some baby weight, and had unwittingly changed the formulation of my breast milk--apparently it didn't taste very good. Pediatrician, Nurse Practitioner, friends--all missed this because I didn't ''talk'' about having started losing weight. There are also some toxicity issues, apparently--but the best person to ask about this would be a breastfeeding professional which you can find at a place like ''Birth & Bonding''. Hope this helps! Karin
Nursing Strike OVER!!!
After three weeks of drinking pumped breast milk from a spouted cup, my son is back to nursing three times per day. Thanks so much for all of the suggestions and support. It kept me pumping & trying to nurse even when I felt like giving up. Very Appreciatively, Lianne

Wasps came agonisingly close to automatic qualification for the European Champions Cup quarter-finals and must wait to discover if they qualify as a best second placed team.
Andy Goode saw his last gasp drop goal slide wide to leave his side tied with the former European champions, who are into the last eight thanks to the draw.
Wasps undermined their cause with a dreadful first 40 mins in which they conceded two tries while down to 14 men on both occasions and that cost them victory. Nathan Hughes and Matt Mullan scored second half tries to give Wasps hope of a win but now they can only wait to discover if they have made history by reaching the last eight after losing their opening two pool games.
A poor first half for Wasps started with a needless yellow card for flanker Ashley Johnson when he took wing Dave Kearney out in the air after 17 seconds. Kearney had to leave the field with a shoulder injury and Leinster later lost scrum half Eoin Reddan , a former Wasps player, with a knee injury. However, those set backs did not affect the speed or precision of the Irish team's approach work.
Only last ditch defence and the willingness to give away penalties at the break down frustrated Leinster's attempts to build on Fergus McFadden's third minute try which Ian Madigan converted from the touch line. It took Wasps until the dying minutes of the half to get near the Leinster 22 and unlike last week's win over Harlequins which their defence allowed them to win without the ball, this was a different challenge.
Leinster had a well drilled attacking game plan which was aimed at stopping Wasps setting up a brick wall defence. Instead, Wasps had to constantly reset their defensive alignment as Leinster kept it tight, used shield runners or put the ball out to their wings. It was a relentless first half assault that brought two penalties for Madigan and one for outside half Jimmy Gopperth who will be moving to Wasps in the summer.
Andy Goode kicked two long range penalties for Wasps but pulled his easiest kick wide just before the break to leave the home side trailing 6-20.
Wasps kept Leinster scoreless in the second half and their 17 point burst resulted from a much more positive performance in the second 40mins as their forwards started to give their backs some front foot ball.
Goode kicked two difficult conversions – the second retaken because of an early charge after hit the upright but he then missed the drop goal attempt – just as Gopperth had earlier – in a bid for victory.Reuse content

With the Smashing Pumpkins as their obvious model, Silversun Pickups continue to explore the intermingling of delicacy and distortion on their second album, Swoon (* * * out of four), a fuzzy, angst-laden affair toughened by guitars that drone, snarl and howl. Swoon is more melodic and expansive than 2006 debut Carnavas and likely to prove more fruitful commercially, thanks largely to coherent arrangements that keep the band's chaotic impulses in check.
The Los Angeles quartet, founded in the bohemian Silver Lake neighborhood, crafts a signature sound of harmony and havoc that mirrors the city itself: gleaming, noisy, dense and seductive with a dark undercurrent of psychosis.
PICK OF THE WEEK: Diana Krall's sensual but cool 'Accustomed to His Face'
In its peak moments, Brian Aubert's airy vocals glide over a menacing bass and thick slabs of guitar, then bump into soothing strings, creating a honey-coated commotion that gives Swoon its dizzying side effects. Unfortunately, the album's tendency toward anemic lyrics also accounts for that sensation. — Edna Gundersen

Woolly Apple Aphid Suppression on Apple Roots
The decrease in use of broad-spectrum insecticides in apple orchards in Utah and the western U.S. appears to be correlated to an increase in some insects that were secondary problems in the past. Woolly apple aphid is one of these secondary pests that are more common today. Woolly apple aphids feed in the phloem of limbs and roots and cause galls that decrease the efficiency of nutrient uptake and fluid transport. The aphids are covered with a grayish-white waxy material that protects them from the environment, natural enemies, and insecticides. Recent research in Utah has evaluated the efficacy of a still unregistered systemic insecticide, spirotetramat (Bayer CropScience). Spirotetramat has demonstrated good suppression of woolly apple aphids on tree limbs. In 2007 the opportunity arose to evaluate suppression of aphids and galling on roots.
Eighteen-year-old apple trees were pulled from the ground and the roots of root suckers evaluated for galls. As compared to untreated trees, there was a significant reduction in root gall ratings (Fig. 1, below) and numbers of galls (Fig. 2, below) on trees that were sprayed with spirotetramat (8 or 12 oz per acre + 1% horticultural mineral oil) either once at petal fall (May 9) or twice (May 9 and June 11). Bayer CropScience is pursuing registration of spirotetramat on apple. These results are encouraging that an effective product may soon be available to assist apple producers with managing this challenging pest.

A transformer is a static device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through inductively coupled conductors—the transformer's coils. A varying current in the first or primary winding creates a varying magnetic flux in the transformer's core and thus a varying magnetic field through the secondary winding. This varying magnetic field induces a varying electromotive force (EMF) or "voltage" in the secondary winding. This effect is called mutual induction.

At AFC, our vision is to lead a global artistic movement that inspires individuals and organizations to preserve and sustain our natural heritage by uniting the talent and passion of the world's most gifted nature artists. This blog has been created as a means for AFC leadership to share thoughts and expertise about topics relating to art and conservation, featuring regular articles by AFC President, Jeff Whiting, and a range of guest bloggers.
AFC Signature Member, Jonathan Truss is deeply concerned about the plight of elephants. Elephants figure in many of Jonathan's paintings, but in his latest, he has attempted a world first - to paint a full-bodied "Big Tusker" elephant life size on canvas! He recently completed the painting, titled 'Tusker's Last Stand' and is using it to raise funds and awareness for elephant conservation.
"Big Tusker" is a term for mature bull elephants. By some estimates, as few as 30 Big Tuskers may remain today, and conservation scientists are warning that it is conceivable that they could be extinct within a human generation.
Following are words from Jonathan about his painting...
"In the time it's taken me to paint this painting 2500 elephants will have been killed by poachers. Last year it is estimated that more than 30,000 elephants were poached illegally. That means one elephant is killed every 15minutes!! Killed for their tusks, which are traded to make jewellery...
Stephen Jesic, AFC Signature Member from Australia recently won First Place in the Animal Category at the 2016 ARC Art Renewal Center's Annual International ARC Salon Competition. Stephen's artwork "Jewel of the Amazon" - also featured in AFC's 2016 Virtual Exhibit - placed among the top of some 3,196 entries by over 1300 artists. The Animal Category in the 12th International ARC Salon represents 106 entries out of the 282 works entered into this category.
This September 29 through October 5, AFC completed its 6th annual Artists for Conservation Festival, celebrating nature's beauty and diversity, with a spectacular art exhibit and a host of inspiring art and environmental education programs. The event welcomed public of all ages with a variety of interests - fine art, environment and conservation.
AFC Signature Member, Anne London recently presented the Botswanan Minister of Environment, Wildlife and Tourism, Tshekedi Khamato, and Botswanan President, Ian Khama two of her original paintings to recognize their courageous efforts to protect Botswana's wildlife for future generations. The artworks illustrate lions, as a representative of all of Africa's wildlife and their struggle to survive against the threats of Wildlife poaching and trophy hunting. The two original paintings are valued at $14,000 USD each.
We're excited to announce AFC's #15th Flag Expedition – Thar: The Great Indian Desert, featuring Nevada, USA artist Sharon Schafer. Sharon recently embarked on her 3-month expedition to India and can be followed via her blog. Sharon's expedition represents an exploration of the flora, fauna and landscape of the Thar Desert of Rajasthan. At the invitation of Shri Jasnath Asan, a 500-year-old ashram, in Panchla Siddha, India,
In November, AFC Signature Mary Louise Holt announced the acquisition of her painting titled: The Village of Mariemont, 17th Century, by Chief Glenna Wallace of the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oaklahoma. The painting will be on permanent exhibit in the Betty Jane Admussen Museum located in the E.S. Tribe's Cultural Preservation Building.
For this year's Festival, the AFC team once again had the pleasure to work with Canadian violist and composer, Thomas Beckman, following a beautiful live performance at the 2015 gala. This time AFC's Jeff Whiting worked with Beckman to choreograph a slideshow of all 201 original artworks juried into AFC's 2016 exhibit, which Beckman used to compose and record a unique 16 minute piece in high-definition sound. On September 29, 2016, guests at the AFC Festival opening evening at Grouse Mountain, North Vancouver, Beckman performed an abbreviated version of the special commissioned peice.
As a special feature of the 2016 Artists for Conservation Festival at Grouse Mountain, Vancouver, I am honoured to have the opportunity to allow the public to view my largest and most challenging work yet.
It is with sadness that we announce the passing of long-time AFC member (2004), Mel Dobson.
Melvin 'Mel' Wood Dobson passed away July 21, 2016 in St Ignatius, Montana. He was the eighth son, born at home, on November 1, 1934 to Lula and Leon Dobson in Holden, Utah. Holden was his home, on the family farm, until he completed high school.
He was preceded in death by both parents and six brothers; Don, Evan, Myron, Clifford, Earl and Lester Dobson. Mel was a Member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
New Jersey artist and AFC Signature Member, James Fiorentino was recently honored when his watercolor painting depicting the Black Swallowtail was chosen to represent the State as the official artwork of the new State butterfly.
AFC Signature Member, Douglas Aja recently donated one of his bronze sculpture (Orphans) recently raised $3,800 for The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust (DSWT). The bronze was auctioned at a fund raising event hosted at London's Landmark Hotel. The piece raised $3,800 for DSWT.

This post talks about ten nourishing and light food recipes you must try. Would you like to know what they are? Keep reading!
1. Quinoa Salmon Burger
The healthy combination of quinoa and salmon is definitely going to satiate your taste buds this summer season.

- Add the salmon and quinoa as well. Next, you have to form the patty and keep it on a plate.
- Get hold of a large skillet and heat it. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and place the patty on the skillet.
- Let it cook for a couple of minutes. If the pan hasn't been heated properly, your patty won't cook well.

- Let the blend now marinate for an hour.
- Now you can proceed to cook the fish.
- Use a heavy bottomed stainless steel pan and let it heat.
- Once the pan is all heated up, add two tablespoons of oil.
- Add the fish and let it sauté for three minutes.
- Now gently remove from the skillet and add a little more oil to cook the rest of the fish pieces.
- Serve your fish tortilla with some sprouts, guacamole and cabbages.
3. Masala Chicken And Vegetable Stew

- Melt some butter on the same skillet. Add the sausages and let them get cooked. Stir till it has become brown on both sides. Use a spoon to add some vegetables to the skillet and season using salt and pepper.
- Cook it in medium heat. Now add some milk in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the sausages and potatoes now. Don't forget the vegetables either. Pour the egg mixture and let it cook for a minute.

Prince William & Kate Middleton Warn Photog: Stop 'Harassing' Prince George
Prince William and Kate Middleton have issued a warning for a photographer to stop "harassing" their 14-month-old son, Prince George.
The royal parents were prompted to take legal action after an incident last week during which an individual in question was spotted at the central London park Prince George was visiting with his nanny.
According to a statement released on Thursday, William and Middleton have "taken legal steps to ask that an individual ceases harassing and following both Prince George and his nanny as they go about their ordinary daily lives."
"There is reason to suspect that the individual may been placing Prince George under surveillance and monitoring his daily routines for a period of time," the statement continued.
William and Middleton stressed that they want their son to "lead as ordinary a life as possible," regardless of the public role that he "will one day inherit."
The statement noted, "No parent would tolerate the suspicion of someone pursuing and harassing their child and carer whilst their child is playing in a public park or going about their daily activities." Middleton is pregnant with her second child and suffering from severe morning sickness, which has caused her to cancel numerous royal engagements. What do you think of William and Middleton's warning?

The Sport bodykit will make the world of difference. I personally dislike the non-sport e36, but the more aggressive sports kit looks AWESOME.
My Mrs was of the impression that i crashed my e36 a little bit just to put the Sports bumper on during the repair (It was an honest accident!).
Enjoy pal.

I have a number of Scottish friends, and they encompass all shades of opinion about Scottish independence. For a while, I had to feign interest as they presented their respective, cogent and passionately argued, views, but, as the day of the referendum on independence approaches, I have found myself becoming much more engaged with what happens on September 18. Once I was uninterested, and now I am just disinterested.
Having heard the arguments, and been swayed this way and that, I really can't say which way I'd jump if I had a vote. And by the looks of things, I am not alone, as there are an estimated million Scots who have yet to decide where to put their cross. The only thing that's certain is that the turnout is likely to dwarf what we've become used to in Westminster elections: someone very close to the Yes campaign told me that he reckons it could be higher than 80 per cent.
The viewing figures for this week's head-to-head TV contest between Alex Salmond and Alistair Darling would tend to support this view. Although not quite as popular the start of The Great British Bake Off, 1.2 million people in Scotland watched the debate on TV, and so many tried to follow the action online that the website crashed. This meant that exiled Scots, and indeed anyone interested in the future shape of the United Kingdom, couldn't watch uninterrupted coverage of a rather important political debate.
This was madness. We have countless TV channels serving up non-stop cooking programmes, old episodes of Blackadder, or live coverage of Gaelic football, and yet there wasn't a corner of our digital landscape in which something that cuts across all our lives could exist. A spokesman for ITV, who screened the debate, said the programme was shown "in the area where our viewers have a vote in the question under discussion". We in England don't have a vote in the American elections either, but no one would suggest it's not a matter of deep interest from Auchtermuchty to St Austell.
Scottish Independence: For and against
Scottish Independence: For and against
1/23 Vivienne Westwood
YES: "I hate England. I like Scotland because somehow I think they are better than we are. They are more democratic."
2/23 Bob Geldof
NO: "This argument needs to be had among us all, you can't selfishly resolve it amongst yourselves by taking an easy opt-out clause."
3/23 Leonard Cohen
UNDECIDED: "People are trying to make their lives significant," he said. "[They] are engaged in a struggle for self-respect and significance."
4/23 James McAvoy
UNDECIDED: "If you vote for continued unification or independence there is no protest vote – that's it. And that could be it for decades, for centuries. There's no going back from it."
5/23 Bill Clinton
NO: "Unity with maximum self-determination sends a powerful message to a world torn by identity conflicts that it is possible to respect our differences while living and working together. This is the great challenge of our time. The Scots can show us how to meet it."
6/23 George Galloway
NO: "There will be havoc if you vote Yes in September. Havoc in Edinburgh and throughout the land and you will break the hearts of many others too… I know which side I'm on. I'm with JK Rowling. Just say No."
7/23 David Beckham
NO: "We want to let you know how very much we value our relationship and friendship. Of course regardless of your decision that will never change, however, my sincere hope is that you will vote to renew our historic bond which has been such a success over the centuries and the envy of the entire world. What unites us is much greater than what divides us. Let's stay together."
8/23 David Bowie
NO: "Scotland stay with us"
Rex Features
9/23 Eddie Izzard
NO: "You can be Scottish, you can be British and you can be European. We can have that. "I say have the parliament, have the more power, but be with us. Like David Bowie said, 'Stay with us Scotland' and I'm saying the same – don't go."
10/23 Frankie Boyle
YES: "It's an 'aye' (for Independence) from me, man."
Association of Online Publishers
11/23 Andy Murray
NO: "I started competing for Great Britain when I was 11. A lot of people forget that. I didn't like it when Salmond got the Scottish flag up at Wimbledon"
12/23 The Proclaimers
YES: 'Scotland has huge national resources, with its people, its wave power – all the possibilities that this country has...we need to take charge of our own affairs'
Gary Calton
13/23 Susan Boyle
NO: "I am a proud, patriotic Scot, passionate about my heritage and my country. But I am not a nationalist."
Rex Features
14/23 Chris Hoy
NO: "It will weaken the British team obviously if Scotland went separately, and it would be harder for the Scottish athletes, initially, to establish themselves in a new training environment, with new coaches, with a different environment altogether."
15/23 Alan Cumming
YES: "The evidence is clear - in the past 15 years we have become stronger economically, socially, culturally and globally. The world is waiting for us and I know Scotland is ready."
Kalpesh Lathigra
16/23 Emma Thompson
NO: "Why insist on building a new border between human beings in an ever-shrinking world where we are still struggling to live alongside each other?"
Carlo Allegri, Reuters
17/23 Billy Bragg
YES: Independence would "create a new settlement that puts people before profit. Those in England who believe that our own society needs to be rebalanced along similar lines should wake up and join the debate"
Getty Images
18/23 Marcus Brigstocke
NO: "If Scotland go their own way (based on fingers crossed, f**k the Tories, William Wallace bollocks it'll be a damn shame. Still wish 'em well"
19/23 Rod Stewart
NO: "I'd hate to see the union broken after all these years. It's always been a spiritual home - but as I don't live there I shouldn't comment on independence. If it's good for the Scots I'm happy."
20/23 Sean Connery
YES: "As a Scot and as someone with a lifelong love for both Scotland and the arts, I believe the opportunity of independence is too good to miss"
Rex Features
21/23 Al Kennedy
NO: "Salmond has the warm potato head of a man who is Scottish and – we hope – no threat"
Rex Features
22/23 Annie Lennox
YES: "There is an opportunity for something innovative and visionary. Scotland could have some kind of new, ethical, visionary stance and it could take on some fresh ideas. That could be amazing, really amazing."
Getty Images
23/23 Morrissey
YES: "They must cut ties with the United King-dumb. I love Scotland, and I love the Scottish spirit and they do not need Westminster in the least."
Getty Images
The point is that, while no one outside the borders of Scotland gets the chance to effect the outcome in a direct way, the result is of practical, cultural and emotional importance to the rest of the United Kingdom, and we have a right to understand the issues, and follow the argument. We don't have to watch, and a vast majority will still prefer to watch a Victoria sponge being baked than a discussion about North Sea oil revenues, but broadcasters have a responsibility beyond their remit to infantilise the nation with reality shows (the ITV regions beyond Scotland - allowed a choice - showed Alan Titchmarsh's Love Your Garden instead of the referendum debate).
And while I may be in the undecided camp as far as the substantive issues are concerned, I do know one thing: should Scotland vote yes next month, it will force we English to confront our own identity. Some may think that's a good thing, but I'm not so sure. Either way, there are many reasons why we should care about what happens north of Berwick-on-Tweed, and it's a disgrace we haven't been allowed to join the debate.Reuse content

As Twitter and Facebook crimes are announced as having risen a massive 780% in just four years, there's a lot to be said about social media and privacy. Even Mark Zukerberg's sister has something to say.
Recently, Anonymous the internet hacktivist group, were reportedly threatening to take down Facebook, and there were also complaints about Facebook's Photo Sync feature.
Now, Mark Zuckerberg's sister Randi has criticised another user for sharing her photo publicly after posting it on Facebook.
She thought the photo was meant for friends only - but another user, Ms Schweitzer, apparently saw the photo after her friend was tagged. She then shared the photo (which went viral), causing Ms Zuckerberg to tweet:
"Digital etiquette: always ask permission before posting a friend's photo publicly." "It's not just about privacy settings, it's about human decency."
"I'm just sensitive to private photos becoming 'news'," she added.
Many Facebook users have reacted rather sharply to Randi Zuckerberg, commenting that the social network makes privacy settings hard to navigate.
It's terribly awkward when a sibling sparks more criticism the family company was already receiving...

Since selling out in its first year, Social Media Camp quickly became Canada's largest social media conference and one of North America's most exciting and anticipated social media events. It perfectly illustrates why holding a conference or meeting in Victoria is nothing short of a capital idea. But what makes Social Media Camp so special? We asked speakers Viveka von Rosen, LinkedIn Expert, and Mike Gingerich, Facebook Marketing Strategist, why they're so excited to return to Victoria for Social Media Camp.
1. Positive Energy
Unlike stuffy, formal conferences, Social Media Camp sparks a buzz and energy that stimulates conversation. Mike compares the energy to a university social gathering. People can't wait to meet, learn and connect over shared interests. "It's an incredible dynamic," reveals Paul, co-organizer of Social Media Camp, "full of positive energy and great conversations!"
2. Stunning Setting
"I immediately fell for Victoria!" admits Mike. He initially heard about Social Media Camp from Viveka who loves the city for its culture, beauty and architecture. She describes Victoria as "modern, yet not overwhelming" and enjoyed watching incoming floatplanes as she sipped her coffee in a charming waterfront coffee shop. Walkable, picturesque and known for exceptional service, Victoria sells itself as a conference and meetings destination.
3. Engaged Audience and Unique Learning Opportunities
Viveka has spoken at conferences around the world and was thoroughly impressed by the focused and actively engaged audience in Victoria. As social media plays a crucial role in both business and personal lives, Social Media Camp caters to a mixed group of participants. To engage small business owners, marketing managers and social media experts, the conference offers a wide array of workshops and a coaching program. Volunteer coaches assist social media novices as they navigate the conference and help highlight action items that meet their strategic objectives. Viveka describes Victoria's thriving tech sector as "leading edge," explaining that in this city "people just get it!"
4. Perfect Size
While small conferences often fail to offer enough unique content to its attendees, large events presents too many workshops. As a result, people may frantically rush from one session to the next and Viveka expresses that "you feel like you're missing out." Social Media Camp, however, is the perfect size. It stuns with a large selection of workshops but, as Viveka puts it, "you can still touch everyone there."
5. Ample Networking with Internationally Acclaimed Talent
A high level of expertise among participants from all over the world makes for interesting conversation, spurred by the engaging setting and longer breaks. "I made new, lasting friendships and forged some business partnership opportunities from the event that were great and very helpful to me professionally," says Mike. Viveka fondly remembers forming "new relationships, better relationships and great friendships."
6. Extensive Culinary Scene and Activities to Enjoy With New Friends
Conversation should not stop as soon as a participant leaves the conference centre. With numerous restaurants and pubs in walking distance, networking expands beyond the meeting space in Victoria. Mike perfectly sums up what makes holding a meeting in Victoria so exceptional when he states that "I think one of the things that made this conference so unique was the flow from sessions to dining and nightlife afterward. We ended up with fairly large groups at dinner and for drinks in local pubs and hotel bars where the conversations kept flowing."
7. Relaxation and "A Breath of Fresh Air"While in town, participants enjoy the many things to do in Victoria, such as ziplining, soaking in a hot mineral pool overlooking the ocean at the Oak Bay Beach Hotel or strolling through Fisherman's Wharf to meet local harbour seals. While Mike can't wait to go whale watching this year, Viveka looks forward to the joyful and relaxed feel of Social Media Camp. To her, coming to Victoria is "a breath of fresh air."
Social Media Camp inspires participants to engage in deeper conversations and form lasting relationships. Victoria, the world's first city to formally declare Social Media Day, is the perfect setting that Paul says "visitors absolutely love." After all, holding a meeting or conference in Victoria is nothing short of a capital idea!

"Merrill Lynch Japan predicts Sony will lose more than $1 billion on hardware during its next-gen console's first year on the market--a sum it may not be able to recoup. According to the latest issue of Japanese magazine Toyo Keizai, Merrill Lynch Japan Securities has recently calculated an analysis that the production of a single PlayStation 3 console will cost Sony approximately 54,000 yen to make ($494), as of its initial release in 2006," reports Gamespot.
"Under the assumption that the Xbox 360 is expected to sell at around $299, Merrill Lynch Japan predicts that Sony will sell each PS3 at the price of 44,800 yen ($410) in Japan and $399 in America. That would mean Sony would suffer a loss of more than 130 billion yen ($1.18 billion) during the first year of the PS3's release."
This compares with a first year loss of $458 million when the PS2 was launched.
Toyo Keizai goes on to interview Sony Computer Entertainment president Ken Kutaragi, who seems confident the PS3 will sell even if it'smuch more expensive than the Xbox 360. Kutaragi says:
The Game Boy Advance is a same handheld gaming machine, and it costs less than 10 thousand yen ($91). On the other hand, our PSP had cost 25,000 yen ($229). But people lined up overnight to buy it, and it sold out on the day of its launch. It all depends on whether people want it. Of course, I'm confident that the PS3 is a product that people will definitely want.

I injected Juvederm on my nose bridge few months ago. Since last night, my nose became swollen and painful. Is this normal?
I injected juvederm few months ago on my nose bridge but since last night I felt pain around that area. This morning I woke up, my nose bridge is swollen, feels like it's expanding and hurts a little. I feel like it's infected? Why is it happening? Thank you.
Doctor Answers 8
Possible infection after Juvederm
While it wouldn't be normal to develop an infection months after Juvederm, it is possible. I have seen people who have developed cellulitis months after and needed prescription meds. It would be best to see your injector (I assume and sincerely hope! you didn't do this yourself....). So see your injector for an examination of the area.

Pain a few months after Juvederm nasal injection - sounds like infection
Go back to your doctor for him/her to evaluate the area. Filler is a foreign body and can get infected. It might need to be dissolved and treated with antibiotics. Steve Weiner, MD, Facial Plastic Surgeon, Destin, Florida.
You require an in person follow up with your injector.
You require an in person follow up with your injector. This may be normal swelling after sleeping vertically; although if you are concerned an assessment is recommended.

You need to see your injector MD ASAP. An infection can occur and may require antibiotics/hyaluronidase, etc. An MD needs to assess the area in person.
Swelling of nose 5 months after Juvederm injection
I injected Juvederm on my nose very few months ago.Since last night my nose became swollen and painful.Is this normal?
In essence Juvederm as well as all other fillers can become infected. It is much more likely in the immediate post injection period rather than several months later. Still possible, the symptoms are suggestive of a localized infection. Antibiotics, warm compresses, and perhaps even drainage might be indicated. I suggested that you return to the physician who did the injection. Unfortunately with such a variety of injectors it is very important to have your work done by someone who can manage any complications which may occur. There is a remote possibility that this is not related to your Juvederm, but unlikely.
Pain after injection
It would be unusual to develop pain months after injection with Juvederm. I assume that you didn't perform the injections yourself and would recommend that you see your doctor to be evaluated.
Juvederm to nose
The Swelling and pain you describe is worrisome for an infection. This may or may not be related to the injection. You should see your doctor who did the injections for an evaluation ASAP.

Great little laser for home!! 01/01/2014
This review is from: Brother HL-5450DN High Speed Single Function Laser Printer with Networking and Duplex Printing
This printer does exactly as the manufacturer claims. It is fast and the printing is great! I use the "Quiet" mode which is about 30PPM.
None that I can think of!
Other Thoughts:
This replaced my HL-5250DN I had for over 5 years which died because of power surges during a storm. The max power consumption is 1.1 amps more than the 5250 have and it does not pop any circuit breakers in my house nor cause the lights to dim. I also have a color HL-4070CDW in the same room with no problem.
Did you find this review helpful? Yes / No Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!

The game is very quiet now but will remain available to play for the next year. Staff presence is definitely limited. I'll continue developing the game as if it is a hobby and continue working on updates as I have time. We welcome players to visit!

The 30 Billion Spiritual Opportunity
In one of its kind initiatives, Pujashoppe has proved to be an idea that was thought from the other side. Lets hear the story of this innovative brainchild from its inceptor, Amushree Jha, Co Founder, PujaShoppe
Share your entrepreneurial journey and discuss the challenges you faced and how did you overcome these issues?
After the completion of my Masters in Journalism and while pursuing my doctoral studies in English, I worked for a few years in companies like The Telegraph, TOI and Edelman India, a multi-national PR firm. I wanted to start something of my own and gave up my job and started a PR firm with offices based in Delhi and Ranchi, that is fortunately my home town.
I was doing well, but wanted to do something more exciting. While having an unofficial meeting with Dr. Tapas Mallick who happens to be the founder of the venture, the idea of starting a business with complete portfolio of products and services suddenly came up and we both agreed to work on the venture together.
There was some initial resistance from my family as I was giving up a decent job to start a venture without any prior experience. Socially there were no issues as today there are a lot of examples of women entrepreneurs who are really doing well even in India. With my kind of educational background, everyone knew that I could go back to working for a company if the venture failed. Fortunately that did not happen.
Share the USP of your business. What are the factors that pull you back while expanding your business?
We started PujaShoppe.com by adopting a hybrid model - a combination of e-Commerce supported by offline stores.We have been pioneers in offering superior quality puja kits, divine gifts and priest and other allied religious services under a single platform. We found an opportunity in the rapidly growing spiritual market for Indian communities comprising of a large population of Hindus, Sikhs, Jains which is estimated to be around US$30 billion annually and almost the entire market is being catered by unorganised and firms. We are presently having more than twelve offline stores located at Delhi, Gurgaon, Noida, Ranchi, Bilaspur and Bangalore. We have plans to open offline stores in all major towns and cities in the country.
Share the potential this industry has in the near future?
The spiritual industry undoubtedly has huge untapped potential. Rapidly growing spiritual market for Indian communities comprising of a large population of Hindus, Sikhs, Jains is estimated to be around US$30 billion which translates to a whopping Rs. 1,95,000 Crore of annually and almost the entire market is being catered by unorganised and small firms.
One Stop Solutions
Authentic Products
The franchise program has been developed with the following objectives:
a)Brand creation and quick expansion
b)Experimentation with a capital light model for expansion in brick and mortar segment.
c)Use these outlets as local distribution points for online sales
d)Obtain primary data to have better insight of the market and consumer behaviour as the business as there is hardly any authentic market data available.
Currently we are following the following basic models:
- 1.FOCO: Franchise owned/ company operated
- 2.FOFO: Franchise owned and Franchise operated.
- 3.COFO: Company owned and Franchise operated.
Our aim is to have more and more FOFO model of franchises wherein we have no initial set up costs or fixed running costs. However PujsShoppe.com being a nascent brand with limited marketing initiatives taken so far (due to fund constraints), we are being a little flexible in handling franchise enquiries.
Company looks for passionate and enthusiastic entrepreneurs to join hands with following basic criteria:
Location: Store space at prominent location such as malls or high street stores registering high footfall.
Capital: Entrepreneurs with adequate financial bandwidth to start and sustain the business for a while.
Ability: Ability to look after the day to day functioning of the business with great networking skills.
Experience: Should have hands on experience on running and managing the retail business.
Share a message for all of the aspiring mothers who wish to become an entrepreneur and how franchising can help in acting as a growth booster?
My advice to all perspective women entrepreneurs is that plan as much as you can well in advance and think ten times before taking the plunge. However, if you do decide to take the plunge, never look back and do whatever it takes ethically to remain afloat and prosper. If you have this die hard attitude success will just be a bi product. And if you want to grow rapidly there is nothing better than franchising out. India is the land of opportunity if you learn how to ride the wave.

Match Report
Sat 10 Nov 12
Jonathan Forte came back to haunt one of his former clubs as Reds battled to a 1-1 draw at Meadow Lane against play-off rivals Notts County.
Forte, who scored five goals in 11 games for Notts on loan from Southampton last season, side-footed home a 44th-minute equaliser to cancel out Neal Bishop's early strike for the Magpies.
Reds grew into the game after surviving a torrid first 25 minutes and fully deserved their share of the spoils.
Notts have lost more home games than any top-ten side but you would not have thought it given their superb start to the contest.
Their wide men, in particular Jamal Campbell-Ryce, stretched Reds almost at will in the first 25 minutes and should have had more than Neal Bishop's 10th-minute goal to show for their early dominance.
The midfielder made an unchecked run from an onside position to get on the end of Campbell-Ryce's chip over the Reds' defence and
hooked the ball past Paul Jones for his fifth goal of the season.
Reds might have been really up against it had Yoann Arquin not headed a perfect cross from Campbell-Ryce over the bar on 19 minutes while skipper Claude Davis made a superb block from another Arquin effort, a fiercely struck close-range volley.
Crawley began to impose themselves as the half wore on and with both sides committed to attack there was a refreshing openness to the game.
Josh Simpson and Nicky Adams weren't far away from distance then Forte slipped in the act of shooting when Billy Clarke's pass put him in space on 36 minutes.
But the pressure paid off a minute before half-time. Bartosz Bialkowski got down well to keep out a header from Clarke and although Notts cleared the initial corner Mike Jones found Adams on the right with a perceptive pass. Adams cut inside then pulled the ball into the path of
who side-footed home from six yards for his second goal of the campaign.
It was just the confidence boost Reds needed for the second half which proved to be much more cagey than the first, the respective managers having clearly told their charges at half-time to put a bit more emphasis on the defensive arts.
That was epitomised by Davis who made a brilliantly-timed block to stop Campbell-Ryce in his tracks. A stretcher was called for but the skipper got to his feet and was able to continue.
It was one of the few occasions when Notts threatened in the second half. Substitute Lee Hughes, distracted by Davis's challenge, headed Leacock's cross wide with 12 minutes to go and Paul Jones then got down well to save a shot from Arquin which lacked sufficient power but Reds largely kept the home side at bay.
At the other end Reds kept the ball well although they didn't pose Bartosz Bialkowski too many problems. As the game wore on Reds opted to keep what they had although Adams, who was the best outlet for the visitors, flashed an inviting centre across the face of goal that only just eluded the on-rushing Forte.
At the final whistle the 308 fans who had made the trip from Crawley saluted the players in celebration of a well-earned but deserved point.
