Couple creates 'forever family'
Sat., Nov. 26, 2005, midnight
Babies are the most desired, but least available, for adoption.
Teenagers are the least desired, but most available.
That's why adoption advocates highly value people like Cheryl and Gary Pounds, a Blanchard, Idaho, couple who have adopted five children since 1999, three of them as teenagers. Now they are trying to adopt two more children, one of whom is a 15-year-old boy.
"We have a crying need for people who can take kids who are foster age and up," said Donna Euler, adoption coordinator for Idaho Youth Ranch in Coeur d'Alene.
Cheryl Pounds will be a speaker Tuesday at an Adoption Information Night sponsored by Idaho Youth Ranch Adoption, Foster Care and Family Services. Also on the panel will be parents who adopted internationally, foster parents and others who can speak to the challenges and joys of adopting and fostering children.
"When we started, we were looking to adopt a baby, at least a younger child," said Cheryl Pounds, who was adopted herself. She and her husband were urged to try foster parenting first, because they had no children. So they got a foster license.
"At first, all we got were angry teenage boys that no one else would take," she said.
And that's how Pounds found that she had a knack for helping kids relax and be themselves, and that she could make a loving family out of society's unwanted children.
"They weren't really a problem," Pounds said of the angry teens. "They want respect. They want love, and they don't want to be told to change."
Most of her children arrived with prescription drugs for their behavioral and mental problems, she said, but most went off all medications once they were able to relax and be themselves.
"The point is to give them a place to grow and be all they can be," she said. "It's adults who made these children who they are. They were born as perfect as a child you would hatch yourself. Everything that is different, that you would find unacceptable, they learned from adults.
"Until they can safely be who they are, they'll never be able to grow."
But making a blended family work with children who have been traumatized and may have already lived in several foster homes doesn't happen on its own.
Helping the Pounds through the adoption process and select children who can thrive in their family is Kristina Brennan, an adoption specialist with Idaho Youth Ranch who recently was awarded Adoption Advocate of the Year by the Idaho Department of Health and Welfare.
Brennan, 29, became interested in adoption as a high school student dating her future husband, who had two adopted siblings from Guatemala.
In college, Brennan sought out the courses and degree she would need to work as an adoption advocate, and her first job as a social worker was in the foster care program, licensing foster parents.
Now she does the paperwork for adoptions out of the foster care system and supervises adoptive families to make sure the children are doing well in their new homes.
"Older teenagers are the hardest to place," she said. "There are so many kids nationwide who are waiting to be adopted."
Brennan helped the Pounds adopt a brother and sister out of the foster care system in New Mexico.
"She had to lay eyes on them every week," Pounds said. "She became a fixture in our home. She's like an auntie to the kids. She's an adult who comes to protect them."
Pounds said Brennan also asks tough questions about the recent adoptions: for example, how new children may affect other relationships in the household.
Successful adoptions are what make her job satisfying, Brennan said.
"It's really neat when you see a kid meet their forever family," she said. "Some kids think that might never happen for them."

You say to hell with it and decide to scream unti your throat bleeds, your voice gives out and your larynx explodes
You say "to hell with it!" and continue screaming at top volume.
After another hour your scream has diminished to a squeak but you keep going, pushing your vocal chords to their limits.
After another hour your scream is inaudible but you notice you are projecting a fine spray of blood over your nice white sheets and you hear a gurgling sound from the back of your throat.
You continue this insane test for another hour until finally you hear a wet squelchy TWANG! from inside your neck, your vocal chords are gone! You've completely destroyed them, you mad fool!
Just at that moment the time crow arrives, crshing through your unopened window, it perches on the end of your bed and caws
"What is your bidding oh master"
Blast your stupidity! You have no larynx and are unable to command the time crow

To give children a choice or not, is always the topic that my husband and me don't agree with each other. He is more like the "authority" type. Sometime, I am more towards giving the child choice. but in the end, it didn't happen the way we expected. e.g.
mom asks: " you want a or b?"
child says: " I don't want a or b, I want c."
I would say there is no right or wrong answer for this.
For small things, we can let the child make their own decision. For major things that the child may not know the effect of making the wrong choice, we must exercise our authority as parents to ask them to do what we think we know the best for them .

Dressageclinic.com is pleased to present Jan Ebling, riding and lecturing aboard Feliciano, a 9 year-old stallion training Grand Prix.
Watch Jan Ebling riding and lecturing aboard Feliciano, a 9 year-old stallion training Grand Prix.
This video is a must for those who would like to see grand prix stallions ridden under snaffle. Simply watching the powerful Feliciano executing changes and half passes in relaxed confidence with light aids and in a snaffle bridle, is reason enough to watch the video. It proves Jan's practices for training horses to grand prix is sound. Moreover, this video shares one of the clearest descriptions of the half pass and shoulder in aids. It's worth the investment if you need more clarity and it's worth the review for those that would like to master the technique of the half pass and shoulder in.
Jan coaches how to ride the half pass at the trot and canter. Jan reminds us to focus on the inside aids – the inside leg with the outside rein guiding the lateral direction. "It is important for half pass, haunches in, travers to really have your dominant aid to be the inner leg," explains Jan. Shoulder in also explained by using the outside rein and inside leg aids with flexion requested of the horse using the inside rein.
Throughout the video, Jan shares his skill and ability to read the stallion and ride relaxation and rhythm into the horse. Many times Feliciano rocketed forward wanting to catch a glimpse at a horse in the neighouring ring. Jan masterfully underreacts every time allowing the training to be about light aids, not curbing enthusiasm.
Jan is of the philosophy that there is 'no reason to cause a fight' and that there is 'always tomorrow' to train our horses. "If corrections are too much and they get afraid or resentful, that is not a good place to be," he affirms.
Jan also values frequent walk breaks throughout training to relax the horse physically and mentally. "A little break helps [the horse] to feel that this whole dressage thing is a game," he shares. "Once the horses think dressage is a lot of work and not so much fun, then that is a problem. You always want to make sure the horse enjoy what they do."
It is a pleasure to watch Jan ride this lovely stallion under snaffle. And it looks as Jan has kept to his training practices as Feliciano looks to be enjoying his role under Jan's guidance.
Jan's resume extends back to Germany where he earned his berreiter, a German licence to train horses. In 1984 he moved to the USA where his competition successes include clinching Gold for Team USA in 2003 at the Pan American Games. His expertise in riding was demonstrated when he rode a Grand Prix freestyle performance bareback in a snaffle which is a true testament of his skill riding and training horses.

Had she not been blessed with a healthy dose of the give-it-a-go philosophy, Katharine Eustace would never have got to the Winter Olympics.
Go back a step; had she not come to New Zealand for a one-year holiday in 2002, she would not have had the chance to be in Sochi, and certainly not racing the take-your-breath-away skeleton event.
Then again, the 38-year-old former British junior 400m runner, appeals as someone not shy of a challenge.
So it is that New Zealand will, in consecutive Winter Olympics, have representatives in both the men's and women's skeletons. Ben Sandford is preparing for his third event; in 2010, he had Tionette Stoddard for company in Vancouver. Sandford was 11th, Stoddard 14th.
Eustace will take decent form into the Olympics.
A seventh in the most recent World Cup at Konigsee, Germany a week ago, has her eighth on the cup rankings.
In a sport where hundredths of a second can decide placings, she'll go in as one of a group of athletes who can genuinely eye a podium finish.
Eustace was born in Bristol, attended university in Birmingham and works in Wanaka as a physiotherapist.
"I hadn't even heard about the skeleton when I was in the UK," she said.
"But we have a lot of winter sports athletes based in Wanaka. [Former skeleton racer] Louise Corcoran kept coming in for physio. Because I'd done a lot of track and field in Britain, with that sprinting background, someone said 'you should have a go'."
She went on a trip to Canada seven years ago, tried it, loved it and "ever since I've been trying to progress and work my way towards going to the Olympics".
Eustace set goals that, if she couldn't reach, she'd have stopped the sport. But the goals kept getting met.
"I'd been competing only a couple of years before the last Olympics and just missed a spot then. I thought, 'If I can go for four years imagine what I could do with that experience,' so I kept persevering."
She had skied and snowboarded in Wanaka and did a lot of multi-sport adventure racing - she's a four-time contestant in the Coast to Coast - and admits a passion for outdoor pursuits.
So what is it about a sport where the margins for error are slight, where you hurtle down an ice shute at speeds up to 140km/h, that appeals?
Eustace denies it's a need for a speed buzz.
"It's just the fact that when you do it right it feels amazing," she said.
"It feels like flying. It's all about doing it properly and precisely. When you do that it's an awesome feeling and when the results come with it, that feels good.
"And when you're learning quite rapidly you are seeing improvements come quickly. And that feels good."
There has been the odd bad prang along the way. Despite what appears a high degree of danger, those who take part at the highest level will argue the number of injuries are small. "Often what happens when you end up quite high in a corner it finishes and you slam out and hit the opposite wall.
"You're not strapped in and might get knocked off your sled, so you're desperately holding on and trying to drag yourself back on."
The cup circuits vary from a minimum of 1500m to 2500m, and must have three quick turns in succession at some point, including a 180 degree twist.
Eustace will be the oldest racer in the field, but that's no barrier. She regularly finishes in the top dozen, hence her optimism in a sport which is very much about performance on the day. There are four runs and the key is consistency.
Eustace admits in her running days she was not as focused on her sport as she is now. Getting to an Olympics was always a dream.
In her days on the track she had other priorities. Now she has the stability of a home and a job, which helps pay the bills.
Eustace is aiming for "at least" top six, if not pushing for a medal in Sochi.
"I've had top six results before so I know it's a possibility. Races are won by .001s; why shouldn't it be my day?
"You do have to focus on process, making sure I've got my steers right, that I'm pushing well and have a plan for every situation so I'm not surprised by anything."
So Sochi is a one-off chance? Eustace doesn't want to pressure herself that this might be it, medal or bust.
"I haven't really thought past the Olympics. I'm still getting better so why would you stop?"
Seven events not to be missed at the Sochi Winter Olympics
1. Men's downhill, Feb 9, 8pm NZT
If you want to know what downhill is all about, go on YouTube and check out Innsbruck, 1976 and Austrian Franz "The Kaiser" Klammer's heart-stopping, legendary run to Games gold (the 4min 11s version). Once your heart is extracted from your mouth, settle in for the final, perfect timing for New Zealand audiences. A tip? Try Aksel Lund Svindal, the Olympic Super G winner in 2010, winner of eight World Cup downhills, including two last month, and twice world championship downhill winner. Italian Dominik Paris, Canada's Erik Guay, Swiss Patrick Kung and Austrian Hannes Reichelt, who pipped Svindal to gold at Kitzbuhel a few days ago, are others worth a thought.
2. Women's snowboard slopestyle, Feb 9, 7.30pm
A big interest in this for New Zealand, and great timing too. Christy Prior (world No7) will be the best regarded of the four New Zealand contenders and is in prime form. There's also Rebecca Torr (No16), Shelly Gotlieb (No19) and Stefi Luxton (No21). American Jamie Anderson, Sarka Pancochova, from the Czech Republic, and Dutch competitor Cheryl Maas are the world's top-three-ranked riders.
3. Men's ski jump, Feb 16, 6.30am
Just what you need while digesting the bacon and eggs. This was Eddie the Eagle's event. Everyone thought it was hilarious. In fact, officials were livid as it made a joke of qualification criteria and he was hopeless at it. Still, you need a large dose of intestinal fortitude and ice in the veins for this. Slovenia's Peter Prevc leads World Cup standings and has finished first or second in six of the last seven cup races; a 26-year-old Pole, Kamil Stoch, sits second. He leaped 128m at age 12 and has a personal best of 232.5m; and Austrian Gregor Schlierenzauer, ranked third, has won three Olympic medals and should also be pressing hard.
4. Men's skeleton, Feb 16, 3.45am
Fancy being three-time New Zealand Olympian Ben Sandford, lying face down on a sled hurtling through a twisting ice tunnel at somewhere north of 130km/h? This sport is decided by hundredths of a second. Latvian Martins Dukurs, a 29-year-old from Riga, is king of the skeleton. He has won six of eight world cups this season and was second and third in the others. Dukurs was second in the Vancouver Games of 2010, won world championship gold in 2012 and 2013 and has won the last four world cup crowns. So no surprise he'll start warmest of favourites.
5. Men's freeski halfpipe, Feb 19, 2.45am qualifying, 6.30am final
Along with the women's snowboard slopestyle, this is the biggie for New Zealand. The Wells brothers Jossi, Byron and Beau-James, along with Lyndon Sheehan, carry New Zealand's hopes into the pipe. New Zealand are a genuine medal chance here. Americans Aaron Blunck and David Wise seem sure to figure at the business end.
6. Women's free skating final, Feb 21, 4am
Think Norwegian Sonja Henie - friend of Nazi Germany's leader Adolf Hitler, winner of three Olympic golds and 10 world championships - East German Katarina Witt, four-time world champion, twice Olympic gold medallist and Playboy centrefold, and Michelle Kwan, five-time world champ. Then think Tonya Harding and Nancy Kerrigan. It's the glamour event on ice, the world of triple axel, choctaw and camel spin. Who to watch? South Korean Kim Yuna, defending her 2010 gold, is a two-time world champion, as is Japan's Mao Asoda, runner-up in Vancouver, and Italian Caroline Kostner, world No1 two years ago.
7. Men's ice hockey final, Feb 24, 1am
No self-respecting American sports fan will forget the Miracle on Ice, at Lake Placid in 1980, when an American team of amateur and collegiate players beat the mighty Soviet Union's full-strength team in their medal-round game, and went on to win gold by beating Finland. In 1999, Sports Illustrated named the victory its top sports moment of the 20th century. Anyway, Russia, Finland and the Czech Republic are the top three seeds for the Games' closing event. The United States are only seventh.

Barris lifted his head to the sky, stars were fading in the rise of the sun.
"Look Gilly, I can't explain… Not the caravan and not a single reason why I'm here… I just can't; not right now."
She hawked him in silence as he took a long gulp of the bitter dark roast and winced.
"What is it? " She insisted, gripping the railing and jerking her head towards him.
"Balamor is in trouble, as am I…" spoke Barris, his eyes off in the distance, he knew his sisters look when it flared up.
"I am here because I need help, and I need you to trust me. I know it means nonsense right now but it's just for a time. I need somewhere to stay until I figure it out, until—" Barris was cut off as he lifted his head and met the heated stare of his sister.
"Until the thickets grow legs? ...You footed off to the Raehl, Barris, and left me and mum... Now you happen upon some daring burden and you wish to drag me into it? All before you considered sending an owl to say hello?"
"I couldn't." He said as he kept himself from yelling.
"There were many days Gilly, that I wanted to write to you and Marie but if you were to know even the slightest thing, the consequences—"
"Consequences? What is it you've gotten into Barris?" Gilly asked as she looked between him and his caravan but he quickly dodged the question and put it plainly,
"Will you help me or not?"
Gilly balled her fist and slowly unfurled it over the railing. She looked through the circle cut window of her home, the small noggin of her daughter ducked out of sight. Then she was back at Barris, their gaze locked before she drew a long sigh and rolled her eyes,
"Fine,." She answered as she began to walk across the wooden porch.
"Whatever it is you have in that caravan you best bring inside, in case another storm passes. There's an extra room down the left hall, t'was for storage so you'll have to make due. Get settled in for now, you can explain all this over breakfast."
"Well, it's a rather long confusing story." Barris said distastefully.
She arrived at the door and grabbed the handle, looking over her shoulder as she pulled it open.
"Good, in that case I'll prepare for second breakfast and set out cakes for elevenses."

Cheshire is without doubt one of the most pleasant of the English counties, both in terms of weather and landscapes. This is a largely rural county, with cheese production from dairy herds still a major activity and market towns a very common feature of the landscape. It's a varied county, too, with hills in the south and east where the land begins to rise to the Welsh Hills and the Peak District, and castles and abbeys testify to its long and eventful history. With great attractions in places like Chester with its walls and castle, and the beaches at Warrington, you basically have everything in place here for a brilliant holiday. The good road and rail links also attract travelling executives and business reps, and specialist Cheshire business hotels have sprung up to cater for their needs also.
The business community has to be flexible, with travelling reps, for instance, often needing to book in and out at short notice, and have specialist facilities in place to make their stay a productive one. Above all, communications have to be good, so business hotels in Cheshire are generally close to trunk roads or in the centre of strategically positioned cities such as Chester and Stockport. Business hotels such as Village Hotel Warrington and Inglewood Manor at Ellesmere Port are close to conference centres and have high-speed WiFi as one of their facilities. Guestrooms with comfortable office chairs and desks are common, so that work can be carried on into the early hours. The staff will be trained in the needs of travelling executives and can put them quickly in touch with local suppliers and contacts where necessary.
A travelling company rep's life is not an easy one, and so many Cheshire business hotels offer a range of high-end services to help them relax when they're not attending conferences or burning the midnight oil. Sauna and massage treatments, indoor heated pools and fitness rooms are quite common, and a shuttle service to rail stations and airports can usually be arranged on request.

|Medicaid Expansion
Share |
An Investment in States' Mental Health
Health Insurance—The Pass-Key to Our Healthcare System
Mass shootings by individuals with a history of mental illness—particularly the tragedy in Newtown, Conn., and most recently at the Navy Yard here in Washington, D.C.—have sparked legislative debates and public conversation about mental health in the United States.
Geography Is Destiny—And It Shouldn't Be
Unfortunately, 25 states that could address this problem in a significant way refuse to participate in the new Medicaid program. The New Medicaid Expansion Program is a voluntary program that's part of the ACA. Uninsured citizens with a mental illness who experience the misfortune of residing in those 25 states will see their hopes dashed because they will not be able obtain health insurance coverage—that they are eligible for under the ACA—due to a policy decision by their state's lawmakers.
Major Findings From AMHCA's "Dashed Hopes" Report Include:
Overall National Findings Include:
So not only will we see millions of people with a diagnosed mental illness denied coverage, but millions more will be left uncovered—many who may have an undiagnosed mental health condition and many others who could benefit from comprehensive benefits that include mental health and substance use services.
Key Characteristics of the Medicaid Expansion Include:
Raising the Visibility of Mental Health Through Expanded Coverage
The decision made by the 25 "left behind" states not to participate in the Medicaid Expansion will commit millions of their fellow citizens who are suffering with a mental illness to poor health, more poverty, and more despair. Their dreams of receiving affordable health insurance and healthcare will be dashed.
Keeping Promises
The promises that policymakers made to address the needs of people with mental illness after the terrible tragedy in Newtown, Conn., will go unfulfilled if they oppose the Medicaid Expansion in their states.
The Medicaid expansion is a win-win-win for currently uninsured people with mental health conditions, for state budgets, and entire state economies.
Here Are Some Ways You Can Help Turn the Tide Toward Acceptance of Medicare Expansion in Your State
We urge AMHCA leaders, all AMHCA members, and grassroots advocates to work together with other healthcare groups and to meet with state officials in the non-expansion states to reconsider their positions on the Medicaid Expansion.
The New Medicaid Expansion Program has the capacity to help states redirect funds from jails, prisons, and crisis-driven services, such as traditional homeless shelters and hospital emergency departments, into community-based programs and evidence-based treatments.

With starting quarterback Jay Cutler on the shelf for perhaps the rest of the season, Chicago Bears coach Lovie Smith made it clear how his team would alter the offensive game plan: The Bears would rely more on star running back Matt Forte. Well, that plan won't be in action the next few weeks, at the least, as Forte suffered a Grade 2 MCL sprain in his right knee early in Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Forte is expected to miss two to four weeks, a large problem for a sputtering Bears team that managed a pitiful three points at home Sunday, and for fantasy owners starting the playoffs in Week 14.
Forte entered the week leading the NFL in yards from scrimmage and sixth among running backs in standard fantasy scoring. He was active in 99.6 percent of ESPN standard leagues -- second only to Ray Rice -- though it's important to note Forte was hardly thriving; he hadn't reached as many as 13 fantasy points since Week 7. Many a fantasy playoff team will wonder why this injury had to happen now, but in a way, things could be far worse. Now fantasy owners don't have to play the guy "that carried them" to this point, because he had stopped doing so, and focus ahead on Week 14 producers. Forte was struggling, he's been ceding goal-line carries to Marion Barber for months and new quarterback Caleb Hanie was abysmal Sunday, throwing three interceptions and producing a minus-one in fantasy.
Barber is an obvious fantasy addition for Week 14 -- he's owned in 17.1 percent of ESPN standard leagues -- when the Bears travel to play the Denver Broncos, but he's hardly a lock for success. On Sunday, Barber ran for 44 yards on 14 carries; he's not only averaging fewer than 4 yards per rush but he's caught all of three passes all season. He's not Forte, even the struggling version. UCLA product Kahlil Bell ran four times for 34 yards Sunday, looking quicker than Barber on a 26-yard scamper, but with Hanie at quarterback there's little reason for opposing defenses to fear this passing game. Forte fantasy owners should keep the running back in case he recovers quickly, but don't be so quick to plug Barber into lineups. The Bears are a mess. Stay away from the mess.
Second down: While Forte is down and out, New York Jets disappointment Shonn Greene picked a fine time to help his fantasy owners. Active in 52.3 percent of ESPN standard leagues, presumably as a flex choice for most, Greene ran for 88 yards and scored three touchdowns against the Washington Redskins, a 28-point fantasy performance in standard leagues that paced all Week 13 running backs entering the Sunday night game. Greene entered the week nursing a rib injury and 31st in standard scoring among running backs. There's sentiment that Greene ramps up his game late in the season, but the truth is Greene has been a reliable January player for the NFL playoffs, not a December star for fantasy owners. In eight prior December games, Greene had scored one touchdown, and topped 70 rushing yards once. In other words, don't get too excited about Greene's Week 14 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Greene should be good for seven or eight fantasy points, but he's just nothing special.
Third down: In one of the bigger weeks of the season for running backs, with six players topping 20 fantasy points and seven others reaching 15 points (entering Sunday night), Tampa Bay Buccaneers ace LeGarrette Blount seemed one of the safer bets with the horrific Carolina Panthers run defense pending. Blount rushed for more than 100 yards in Weeks 11 and 12; the Panthers were allowing the most fantasy points to running backs, nearly 25 per game. Well, guess what happened? Blount was the No. 11 running back in terms of being active in ESPN leagues (82.8 percent), and he rushed 11 times for 19 yards. That's one fantasy point in the easiest of matchups when Blount had totaled 27 fantasy points the past two weeks. Epic fail. Certainly the absence of starting quarterback Josh Freeman (shoulder) didn't help, as Josh Johnson (not the Florida Marlins pitcher) struggled, but now fantasy owners will re-examine their love for Blount. He's likely more flex option than sure starter for Week 14, and now the Week 16 rematch at Carolina seems less appealing as well, unless you own Cam Newton and/or Jonathan Stewart, who really enjoyed tearing up the Buccaneers (second most fantasy points allowed to running backs).
Fourth down: Meanwhile, Houston Texans stud wide receiver Andre Johnson continues to tease fantasy owners. He caught four of his nine targets from rookie quarterback T.J. Yates on Sunday, including a 50-yarder, gaining 97 yards. It was a great sign that Johnson was able to produce nine fantasy points with a third-string quarterback (whom you shouldn't be relying on individually). Alas, Johnson left early with a left hamstring injury, describing it as nothing near the right hamstring injury Johnson suffered in Week 4 that caused him to miss six games. We'll find out more about the severity of the injury Monday, though fantasy owners seemed oddly lukewarm in using him anyway; Johnson was active in 54.6 percent of leagues, ranking 23rd. Johnson is good enough that if he is able to play in Week 14, he's a borderline top 10 wide receiver, and certainly worth using in a fantasy playoff matchup.

Spent all of today on the road after being picked up from our hotel at 8 and arriving at our destination 12 hours later. We did meet some cool people who were 2 girls from Italy (Ottavia & Ludo) and a Swedish/Russian couple who had just spent a month in a Buddhist camp in Kathmandu (Ken & Maria).
We thought heading out of the towns we would see beatiful green landscape but it just seemed to be roadside shops and shacks most of the way.

... service! The bus trip back to the Duta Losmen was fairly quick this time as we weren't picking up market goers and we made it back in good time. We had a walk out to a local restaurant which was interesting as it was deadly quiet bar the screeching of birds (canaries etc) that the owner had in the back room, at times it was deafening! A less than average meal later and we braved the torrential rain to get back to the Losmen and bed down for the night. ...

Prior to giving birth to our second son, my husband and I had a serious conversation about him being the gatekeeper for visitors at the hospital. I was inspired by how my sister initiated breastfeeding right away after delivery, and wanted to do the same with our son. My husband's job was to determine when people came to visit. This allowed me to feel comfortable nursing openly. Little did I know the countless ways of him assisting and supporting me with breastfeeding would be revealed throughout this journey. He provided us with an eternal sense of peace.
I was exhausted the first night at the hospital, because of waking up every 2 ½ hours to feed. My body was tired after giving birth, and sleep deprivation was starting to kick in big time. The last thing I wanted to do was put a hungry baby on my sore breasts. With love and knowing my intentions, my husband was very supportive in getting me water and adjusting my pillow to nurse. Sometimes he felt helpless and indicated that there wasn't much he could do to assist me with various positions to feed. I felt the same way, until we had a visit from the lactation consultant, Catharine Monet.
Ms. Monet, a certified International Board of Lactation Consultant Examiner, tiptoed into our dim lit room and spoke in a very soft voice. She is petite with coke-bottle glasses, grayish brown hair, and exudes a nurturing spirit. I had just begun nursing as she approached the bedside and glanced down at our baby. Ms. Monet smiled as her voice matched her sweet persona and graceful motions, while reiterating to us the importance of breastfeeding. Intrigued by her wisdom, my intuition was correct in sensing that she had been teaching mothers for years about breastfeeding. In fact, she has worked in the field for over 22 years and believes that "God put the great desire in her to teach mothers how to feed their babies."
Her guidance and support led me to interview her and to share her knowledge and truth with other moms and dads. Ms. Monet helped my husband feel a part of the breastfeeding experience. Her tips on getting your partner involved with breastfeeding were both useful and powerful.

Escape Death
As the darkness lifts unexpectedly once again I notice I am no longer lying on the floor, there is a bright light shining in my face. Am I dead?
No I'm not, I'm lying in a hospital bed. My neck has been bandaged up and I still feel the immense pain, but it is easing slowly. How did I get here? I couldn't believe it I was saved and I don't know how. My head began to ache and I knew that my mum was present. The room went dark and my mum appeared, she was smiling at me.
She whispered, "You're safe for now!" and then she disappeared, and the room lit up. What did mum mean? I don't understand! Am I going to be in danger when I leave here. I was so worried about what was going to happen to me next.
One of the doctors came in and undone my bandage on my neck, she told me to keep very still, she cleaned the wound gently. I then caught sight of the old bloody bandage, the blood was thick and clotted in patches. I was nearly sick on her. She put a fresh bandage on my neck and told me it looked better than it was last time they changed the dressing.
I don't know when they last changed it, the bandage looked as though I've had it on for about a week. I don't recall ever seeing anyone change it before now. Does this mean that I was unconscious for a while, I hope not.

Statistics, Econometrics and Forecasting
€ 38,49
Lieferbar innert 2 Wochen
März 2008
BeschreibungThis book is based on two Sir Richard Stone lectures at the Bank of England and the National Institute for Economic and Social Research. Largely non-technical, the first part of the book covers some of the broader issues involved in Stone's and others' work in statistics. It explores the more philosophical issues attached to statistics, econometrics and forecasting and describes the paradigm shift back to the Bayesian approach to scientific inference. The first part concludes with simple examples from the different worlds of educational management and golf clubs. The second, more technical part covers in detail the structural econometric time series analysis (SEMTSA) approach to statistical and econometric modeling.

Eric: Shadow Boy's Cabin
"Hey, I'm Eric" I say standing up and shaking hands with him a small crackle happening when our hands slap together.
"So whats your gift?" Denver asks tossing his belonging into one of the two rooms here.
"Time Manipulation, Shadow Manipulation and Telepathy, Like I can tell that right now there is two girls and one boy still not here for Team Spark and one of them called Evagelina is the leader" I say sitting down and pulling another coin out of my pocket.
"Wow, thats cool. I can generate poison, I have night vision and I can command Fire" He says lighting a flame on his finger. I smile and flick my hand a shadow shooting out to put the fire out.
"I'd prefer if you didn't do that in the wooden cabin we will have to be living in for the next 6 weeks"
Denver shrugged annd moved off into his room. "You know where the bathroom is, I need a shower" Denver calls back.
"Its the third door off the sitting room thats blue" I yell. He comes out with a towel then disapears into the bathroom.
I sigh heavily and move to my room. I click my fingers and the shadows begin my unpacking for me as I lie on my bed. At one point they almost eat something so I have to yank them back then pause my clothes in the air.
Shadows are like parasites.... very useful parasites that I can control. Once they've finished up I flick a coin up into the air which they engulf before departing into the corners of my room.
I get up and move out of the cabin hearing the run of the bath as I pass the bathroom making my way through the lounge area.
I go outside and take in a deep breath. Shadows cling to my skin and I take the steps easily. I head for the main cabin when someone coming down catches my eyes.
"Wow" I whisper. I enter the mind of Xavier talking to her and whistle when I find her name. "So Mystry, you're in Spark then. Too bad I would actually like to get to know you"
I then turn on my heels but I can hear Mystry's thoughts when she turns and see's me but I don't bother to listen properly.

Bon-Ton buffing up Boston Store
Upgrade coincides with $52.5 million Southridge remodel
With competition among traditional department stores escalating in southeast Wisconsin, Bon-Ton Stores Inc. is planning a complete remodeling of its Boston Store at Southridge Mall.
The remodeling is part of an effort to spruce up several of the company's Milwaukee-area stores, including doubling the size of the women's shoe departments at Southridge, Brookfield Square and Mayfair and adding brands such as Joan and David, Michael Kors and Betsey Johnson.
"We want to be the destination for shoes," said Barbara Schrantz, Bon-Ton's chief operating officer. "Women think of their shoes and handbags as their badge. They are the pieces they can wear to make a fashion statement."
Bon-Ton's makeover comes as retail survivors emerge from the recession and as major new competition is cropping up for its area stores.
It also coincides with a $52.5 million overhaul of Southridge itself. Indianapolis-based Simon Property Group Inc., which owns Southridge, is planning multimillion-dollar improvements to the mall's existing commercial buildings, including a renovation and upgrade of the mall's interior.
Macy's said in May it plans to open a 150,000-square-foot store in the former Younkers space that anchors one end of Southridge.
Von Maur, an upscale department store, is planning a new store at the site of a former Menards in the Town of Brookfield, about 3 miles down the road from Brookfield Square.
Bon-Ton began planning the initiative in April 2010, before Macy's and Von Maur announced their plans, Schrantz said.
The makeover grew out of ongoing customer research, particularly with a group of 25,000 "best customers" the chain continually talks with, she said.
"It is coming out of the recession and knowing the customer was going to be back and positioning ourselves for it," Schrantz said.
Many retailers that survived the recession are managing their growth and inventory better and operating more efficiently with a heightened customer focus, said Richard P. Imperiale, president of Forward Uniplan Advisors Inc., a Union Grove money-management firm.
"Retail franchises have become very aggressive about expanding and remodeling and repositioning their businesses and taking market share from what are typically known as the mom-and-pop operators and from their weaker competitors," Imperiale said.
A big part of that repositioning is going after college-educated professionals who are employed and feeling secure in their current status, he said.
"It's the whole idea of shopping as an experience, catering to the customer and creating a lifestyle outcome," Imperiale said, adding, "margins right now in the women's shoe department are better than they've ever been in history."
Bon-Ton's shoe department expansions at Brookfield Square and Mayfair - both are growing to more than 15,000 square feet - will be finished in August.
Along with new brands, current brands like Jessica Simpson, Ralph Lauren and others will be expanded, Schrantz said.
Other departments will also add names like the chain's new Mambo Australian Surfwear brand and John Bartlett-designed Consensus and Statements men's private labels, she said.
Bon-Ton is planning to begin the Southridge remodeling in October and complete it in four phases, finishing in August 2012, Schrantz said.
The store will look more like those at Brookfield Square and Mayfair when finished, with a lighter color palette, a more contemporary design and a more open floor plan, she said. Along with the much bigger shoe department, the children's apparel area will be expanded.
The chain has done this sort of remodeling in several other stores, including at Beaver Dam Mall in Wisconsin, Randhurst Mall in Illinois and Park City Center in Pennsylvania, Schrantz said.
At its Brookfield Square and West Bend stores, Bon-Ton plans to begin testing kiosks that will allow customers to search the chain's entire e-commerce site.
That's an area where many retailers are starting to focus, said Keri Spanbauer, senior equities analyst at Thrivent Investment Management in Appleton.
"If they can keep you in there longer and show you another way to find that item, they're going to have a much happier customer - and you're not going somewhere else," Spanbauer said.

Sacramento Kings Executive is Getting National Recognition
A Sacramento Kings executive is getting some national recognition.
Kunal Merchant is one of 24 members in the inaugural class of what's called the Cross Sector Leadership Fellows.
They're men and women who have been able to bring together businesses, government, and nonprofits on big projects.
"Sacramento is doing such great work on the arena, that we're a national model," Merchant said.
The former chief of staff to Mayor Kevin Johnson will be honored at the White House tomorrow, before getting down to business.
"Meeting with members of the president's administration and actually presenting to them on some of the work that we're doing," he said.
Something advisers like: the outreach from the Kings to the homeless, arts and youth organizations.

A storm seemingly materialized out of wispy clouds inside of 15 minutes just above treeline. Later a gigantic hailstorm nearly covered the ground and heavy rain turned the lower portions of the trail into a small creek. I hoped that the many hikers behind us were somehow safe. The watch word to start down early (we started down at 11:00) is always worth the early get up.

|Wow, what a day. After attempting these two 14ers twice this year and failing both times, I came back today with a vengeance and soloed both mountains! My first summits this year! That makes 23 14ers climbed so far. It's been awhile since I've made a new ascent. Reminds me why I moved out here in the first place!
I set off from the Blank Gulch Trailhead around 05:45 AM with intentions of taking the East Slopes route up and over 14,229 ft. Mount Shavano. I arrived at treeline by 8:00 AM, only saw about 10 other climbers and some casual hikers along the way, but I sped past all of them. Once above the "Angel of Shavano" snowfield (Where I failed last time) I lost the trail for a bit and then picked it back up on Shavano's South Ridge. Boy, was it windy. My hat flew off my head a few times but I ran and was able to apprehend it without further incident. I am estimating wind gusts of about 60 mph, strong enough to knock me down a few times. I picked up the Shavano trail and made the summit around 10:00 AM. Pretty tired but confident, I then proceeded down to the col between Mount Shavano and 14,155 ft. Tabeguache Peak. The way down had no marked trail and was mostly a scramble in 60 mph winds. No one else attempted to go over to Tabeguache, just me for today. At least it was blue skies all day... I descended about 500 ft. down and made the mile journey over to Tabeguache. Once you start climbing down Shavano towards Tabeguache, it is a commitment. There is no escape or bail route. The only practical way back to safety is to re-summit Shavano. What a chore. I climbed up snow to the summit of Tabeguache and made the summit around 11:00 AM. Knowing I had to make it back over Shavano, I didn't stay long. I took out my ice ax and slid down the snow back to the col between the peaks. I regained Shavano by 12:15, drank all my water and made my way back down to treeline by 1:00 PM. From here, it was still a few miles back through the woods to the trail head with no water... I made it back to my vehicle around 2:30 PM.
All in all, two 14ers summited, 5,600 ft. of elevation gained over 11.25 miles in about 8 and 1/2 hours. Glad to be done with them.

Gretchen Bernabei asks students to derive possible text structures from examining mentor texts. Instead of that one format students are given—the five-paragraph essay—she gives us fifty, and doesn't pretend that's a complete list. She changes the landscape students can work in from one of poverty to one of wonderful excess. She shows us that as writers we are playing a game with lots of moves. —Thomas Newkirk
School writing has nothing to do with my life…If that sounds like your students, then you need this book, because it will prove to your students that writing counts in our world— and always has.
In Text Structures from the Masters, Gretchen Bernabei and Jennifer Koppe provide 50 short texts by famous Americans who put pen to paper driven by what Peter Elbow described as "an itch" to say something. The book includes Sojourner Truth's Speech (itch: join a heated debate), FDR's Pearl Harbor message (itch: pick up the pieces), JFK's inaugural address (itch: give a pep talk) . . . along with 47 more pieces and their explicit purposes.
By examining the structure of these mentor texts, students suddenly see that the itch is something they have in their own lives, too! And the 50 companion lessons invite students to use the text structure of each the famous documents to express that itch.
Each 4-page lesson includes:
Text Structures from the Masters shows students how writing can help get the work of their lives done. They don't need to be poised to send someone into the battlefield to have the desire to express something to others—just the itch to say it well.

Couto is currently a free agent after failing to reach an accord to stay at Lazio for this season.
He was linked with Bolton Wanderers and Middlesbrough, while there have been reports that Lazio are prepared to make a renewed effort to hand the veteran stopper a new contract.
But the 35-year-old is now in talks with Parma about a return to Ennio Tardini - where he played from 1994-1996.
Parma have confirmed they are hoping to sign Couto, with the vastly experienced centre half determined to prove he can still compete at Serie A level.
