Today the Lady of the House took me to the vet. I might as well share with my diary what my recent problems have been: for the past several weeks, the Lady of the House has found, randomly, small inch-long droppings in various places throughout the house. As there are three of us cats, she was not sure of the source. Unfortunately, that source has been found to be me. I have been getting very excited and running throughout the house in a most undignified manner, jumping on furniture running through rooms and in circles, whirring and chirping. And, leaving a trail of droppings in my wake. At first, she did not see many, but they have increased quite a bit. And then, well, I jumped on her dresser and nightstand and the floor next to the bed - and those weren't small or dried-up. The morning after this, she actually witnessed my display of excitement. So, she decided to call the vet to make sure I am OK. Our vet was completely mystified as to what might be causing this odd behaviour. I have always been very docile and well-behaved. And, the vet could only say that I appear to be perfect health, but she agrees that this problem is not normal. Right now, the vet is not sure what is causing my.....problems. I have some rather vile looking liquid medicine I have to take twice a day for two weeks. If that doesn't work, then my vet has recommended that my mum take me to the University's Small Animal Health Clinic for behavioural evaluation and observation. Please cross your claws that this medicine works, and that I don't have to go to the University!
So, I have recently discovered the wonder of these things called "bookcases" that the Lord and Lady of the house have. They are very tall, and they have these wonderful "shelves" on them. They are excellent for a gentleman cat such as myself who likes high ground. I am learning to get to the very top of these fixtures in order to best survey the room. Plus, these things are repositories for books, which smell wonderful. I like to sniff them. I sniffed some of the very best books when I attended Gentleman School. It's nice to have books at home for sniffing. The Lady does not much care, though, for my scratching at the backs of the cases and taking books off the shelf. She seems to think it "naughty." I can't see why! She doesn't even sniff books, she just holds them for a very long time. Well - I must take leave of you, dear readers, and get back to my cases!
So, I must admit that though I was very appalled at the removal of my best and most favourite end table last week, I have grown quite accustomed to this new arrangement. This tree that has been placed in the home is quite cozy to nap under. Even better, it has this lovely red felt "skirt" that I have found makes an excellent bed! Perfect, indeed, for these chilly winter nights. I am still a bit offended that the lady of the house does not trust me to handle the toys that adorn it, but overall it is very nice. Indeed, my dear sister, the Little Miss, is quite fond of the tree also. She and I spent the afternoon there today, napping and just enjoying each others company. She and Reese have been at war again of late, so I groomed her for nearly 20 minutes to help relax her. I can see, now, that there are benefits to having a tree in the home. It is nearly as nice as venturing outside to enjoy them, but I do not understand what the Lord and Lady of the house get out of having it, as they cannot stretch out under it. Alas, I shall not trouble myself much about them; I am pleased at how things have turned out!

Matchmaking gets divine touch at Japanese shrine
By Yoko Kubota
TOKYO (Reuters Life!) - Rie Suzuki has exhausted most earthly means to find Mr. Right, so now she, and dozens of singles in Japan where marriage has recently gone out of fashion, are turning to the gods for help.
Forty-year-old Suzuki was one of 14 women and 14 men gathered on a recent Saturday at Imado shrine in Tokyo, which honors Japan's indigenous Shinto gods of marriage. Participants had varied backgrounds, but one common goal -- to find a partner.
"We said it's up to the gods now. If we go on as we have, we probably won't ever meet anyone," said Suzuki, who was attending the event that combines prayer with speed-dating.
With Japan's economy plunged deep into recession, many women are taking a renewed interest in marriage and the economic stability it could provide, and are actively seeking a partner through "konkatsu" or spouse-hunting activities, experts say.
Such activities range from surfing dating websites to participating in a grass-mowing event for singles, and Imado shrine's two-hour, 6,000 yen ($63) event is also on some marriage-hunters' list.
"This is a shrine known for marriage and many men and women seeking a good match come here," said Tomoe Ichino, a 32-year-old priest at the shrine who with her sister Kana runs the matchmaking event for which over 1,000 people have registered.
"I would see a woman buying a good luck charm, then a man doing the same thing 10 minutes later. Then I started to think that maybe they could have ended up together if they had met. So we're trying to coordinate a time when they can meet."

The doors and windows have a huge influence on the appearance and performance of a building. Evaluate your current outdoor setting and choose the style that will serve as the better fit.

Double glazing, however, is necessary if you want to use the building even during winter. Get just what you need so you won't end up paying for what you don't need.
Add a splash of personality with wood treatment or premium paint. Add your weatherproofing finish to keep the cabin in its best condition. Make sure you apply retreatment at least annually to make the structure last as long as possible.

Our basic treatment is available in four colours: Evergreen, Cedar Red, Harvest Gold and Dark Brown.
Premium Paint
Our premium paint comes in a wide variety of colours to enhance the personality of the product.
The height of the building is just below 2.5 metres, giving it a greater chance of avoiding issues with current planning regulations. We still advise you to contact your local area's council for information just to be sure.
The 6'2" double doors can accommodate the majority of adults and most kinds of furniture and indoor equipment. The impressive height also minimises the chances of a user bumping his head when he passes through the doors. The windowed structure of the doors let even more light to enter the building. It also makes your view of your garden more panoramic.

Our Town
This play was seen on 7/27/10 in the Barrow Street Theater West Village NYC: Not having known anything about Thornton Wilder?s play prior to attending, but having heard the play referenced, on numerous occasions, my curiosity was peeked. After reading the description of the play online, I decided to purchase tickets and see what the play, and David Cromer?s adaptation was all about. The set was ultra-minimalist, being comprised of just 2 tables in the center of the stage, which allowed for the cast members to very effectively transport the audience member?s imagination right into the very town of Grovers Corners and into the everyday lives of its inhabitants. With the exception of one scene, during the third act where a full set and costumes were used to represent the importance of the scene, the play was largely left to the imagination of the audience. Although the entire cast, without exception, was magnificent, no better choice then Helen Hunt in the role of Stage Manager could have been made. Helen Hunt was the shining light of the production and was the glue that bonded the entire piece together. Helen Hunt and cast were so adept at making the town of Grover?s Corners come to life, that several audience members were audibly upset, by the passing of one of the town?s folk. This play is an absolute must see before its run ends on September 12th. For me personally seeing this cast, on this day, moved this play, to the top choice for my favorite play of all time. Do not hesitate, even one more day, buy your tickets now.

Title: Gilraen the Living Dead
Author: Sivan Shemesh
Beta: Aranel
Disclaimer: Not mine.
Rate: K+
Warning: Family/Horror, AU.
Synopsis: A young Estel is haunted by visions of his mother. How could he make them stop?
A/N: This story is based on Estel being a few years older than in the books.
A/N 2: Written for Teitho "Weird Tales"
It had been two years since his mother died. The last time Estel had seen her body was two years ago. How was it possible that he saw her again so recently in Imladris? And certainly he could not have been mistaken; she looked exactly like how he remembered her – even if something wasn't quite the same about her.
Still, was it possible that Gilraen had faked her death to be with him longer?
Estel let his mind explore the possibilities as he wandered within the forests of Imladris. Perhaps she had heard him crying at her grave and had finally returned to look for him. Perhaps she missed him too much. Or more likely, perhaps he had made her angry… As he made his way back, going past the waterfall, he stopped on the arched bridge, watching the water cascade in a blur. If he looked hard enough, maybe he would see his mother within the rushing waters.
"Estel, what are you doing now?" Elrohir asked his brother quietly.
"What do you mean?" Estel asked him, still staring at the waterfall.
"It is your sword lesson, Estel. You've already missed two lessons in the past two weeks, and you weren't present for adar's healing class, or Lindir's archery class either," Elrohir replied and then he asked with a worried frown, "Is there something that bothers you, my brother?"
Estel turned and stared at him, his expressions as though pleading, but he could not seem to find the words to explain it all to his brother, so he tried to shrug it off instead. "No, you cannot help, no one can," he said, dejected.
Elrohir looked at the boy, having noticed something flicker in his brother's gray eyes, but not wanting to push the subject, he decided to let it pass; he knew Estel well enough to know that the child would talk when he wanted to.
"Well, if there's something that bothers you, little brother, you can come to me, Elladan and ada for advice anytime. We'll try to understand and help you as much as we can," Elrohir paused and put an arm around the boy. "Please do not forget that we are a family, and everyone in a family takes care of one another."
With that Elrohir gave the boy an encouraging smile and left him alone with his thoughts.
Estel blinked as he realized he had been staring at his brother's retreating form. Giving a small sigh that would have done his ada proud, he wandered around, thinking of what had happened in the last three weeks. How had everything started? How could he made it stop? But his mind had no solution for it all.
The day seemed to fly by and it wasn't too long before the sun began to set and the colors in the sky were replaced by the envelope of darkness. Estel was in his room tucked in the bed. He was tired but he kept putting off the moment of sleep – sleep meant she would come again and he wasn't sure if he wanted that – until he could bear it no longer. Finally, his eyes closed.
"You cannot run away from me, my son, you are mine!" The familiar figure was chasing after him, growling at him like some kind of animal.
Estel thrashed around, trying to free himself from her firm grasp. He shook his head frantically and then he screamed as loud as he could.
The frightened scream woke Elrond at once and he rushed to the boy's room, only to find him sweating profusely, his limbs entangled in the sheets. The boy was paler than usual and his eyes were still closed in sleep
"Estel..." Elrond tried to wake him from his nightmare, but the boy showed no response.
Coming quickly to a decision, Elrond left Estel's room, calling for his sons to see to their brother as he hurried toward the kitchen. Though he was uncertain of what troubled his foster son, he knew that he needed lots of fresh water and the calming athelas.
Elrond was aware that Estel had missed quite a few lessons in the last three weeks. Although he had hoped that the boy would confide either in him or the twins, Estel had not come by.
When Elrond returned to the room, Estel was half awake, a haunted look still in his eyes. Elrond could easily see the streaks where the boy's tears had flown down his cheeks.
"Elladan, Elrohir, did he say anything?" Elrond asked with concern as he kept his gaze on the boy.
"Only mumbling about someone coming after him..." Elladan replied, and Elrohir continued for him, "We could see that something was bothering him. I even asked him about it earlier and but he told me that no one can help him, and I did not wish to push the issue, fearing he might do something rash instead."
"You did well my son, you are his brother and you acted like one," Elrond said to Elrohir, the pride evident in his voice, as he saw the young elf's regretful expression.
"Adar is right, muindor," Elladan agreed and told his twin.
Elrond sat at the edge of Estel's bed, wiping the sweat that covered the boy's forehead with the fresh leaves, letting the calming scent ease the boy's fears.
"Estel," Elladan called, hoping Estel would open his eyes completely.
"No..." Estel mumbled.
The healer and the twins looked at each other in incomphension.
"Estel," Elrohir called, and looked deep in those gray, haunted eyes, "It is only us and adar here. Please, little brother, tell us what is wrong and we will fix it."
"Go away... please..." Estel was still mumbling, his eyes glazed over.
"Who do you wish to go away, my son?" Elrond asked. Whatever it was terrifying him, Elrond wanted to protect the boy.
"Her..." Estel replied, pointing his little hand toward a figure that only he could see, for when Elrond and his sons turned, they saw nothing but the cool mist.
"Who is she?" Elrond asked softly, willing the herb to take its effect, as he saw how Estel seemed to grow paler.
"Please go away before she does something to me... please..." Estel was almost begging them.
"What will she do to you, little brother?" Elladan asked with concern.
"She will take me away..." Estel started to cry and Elladan instinctively hugged the boy, letting him cry on his shoulder, while his twin turned to his father, hoping Elrond could help the boy pass the night. At his father's nod, Elrohir passed a few leaves for him to brew the tea.
"Estel," Elrond called and waited for the child to look at him before he spoke, "I want you to drink this." He brought the herbal tea over to him. "It will make you sleep soundly, and no nightmare will catch you in your dreams, alright?"
Estel nodded, and though his fingers still trembled, he finished the tea.
The twins watched him carefully, noticing how he was still clearly disturbed from his nightmare. Hopefully he would rest and in the morning, he might feel well enough to tell them about the nightmare that had left him so shaken and vulnerable.
When dawn broke, Estel lay in bed for a few minutes before he registered what had happened last night. While he could not help the blush of embarrassment that crept up as he thought of how he had let his brothers and his adar know about the one who kept hunting him, he comforted himself with the fact that he had managed to hide her identity.
Then he saw her again.
He moved quickly off the bed, his clothes still soaked in his own sweat. He could not understand why; nights were cool but his room must have been particularly heated up.
"Please..." Estel mumbled toward her, tried to make his escape.
"No one can see me except you, my darling boy..." Gilraen told him, laughing so hard that Estel found it painful.
Dashing out of his room, the boy covered his ears and ran as fast as he could. He did not know where he ought to go, but anywhere seemed better than his room, the corridor, the house. He could still hear her laughing behind him but he pressed his hands hard against his ears and ran, not bothering where he would wind up at. All he knew was that he had to keep running.
"You are a boy, a human, and only you can see me; no elf can see me. And I will hunt you till you come and be with me where you belong!" she laughed again.
"No!" Estel did not dare look back but he brushed those shameful tears roughly off his face.
"Estel, wait…" It was a different voice this time but Estel paid no heed to it. He could not let anything stop him from running.
"Estel… Please…" The boy's mind worked out that the voice sounded familiar but he was too frightened to stop.
"Gwador nîn, av-'osto… Gwador vuin…" Somewhere in his mind, he knew it was Elrohir and something made him slow down and take refuge in a cave. [My brother, don't be afraid, my dear brother…]
Elrohir wasted no time in catching up with the boy, watching him hug his knees in the darkest corner of the cave. He could not possibly let the boy try to hide and face the unknown on his own.
"Estel, gwador vuin, it is I, Elrohir," Elrohir called to him softly. It was heart-wrenching to see the boy running away from the land he had adopted as his home only not too long ago.
"Elrohir... she is after me..." Estel said softly, his voice trembling with fear.
Elrohir came closer and held the little child in a protective hug. "Who is she?" he asked gently.
Estel sobbed only harder and squeezed his eyes shut.
"Estel…" Elrohir patted the boy's back. "You know you can tell me; I'll always protect you. It'll be alright."
As though coming to a decision, Estel swallowed hard. "My… my mother," Estel replied between chokes, "She... she said that... that she came to get me... I'm scared..."
"You have nothing to afraid of, little brother. I will protect you, and Elladan and adar will help too. No one will ever hurt my family," Elrohir told him firmly.
"No one?" Estel sniffed hard and asked, looking up at Elrohir hopefully.
"No one!" Elrohir assured him, wrapping his arms around him tighter.
The boy seemed to calm down; at least Elrohir did not feel the boy's fearful trembling now. "Estel, your mother has been dead for two years. There is no way she can return back to scare you," Elrohir tried to reassure him.
"But... but I saw her..." Estel said, and swallowed another sob.
"What did she look like?" Elrohir asked in concern.
"Like she always was. But she was paler, and her clothes were torn, and she looks very… evil." Estel replied timidly and those sobs engulfed him again.
Elrohir let him sob on his shoulder, and then a thought occurred to him. "Estel, have you been listening to one of Erestor's stories again?" Elrohir asked; he could recall a very similar tale.
"I do not remember…" Estel replied.
"It is alright, little brother," Elrohir assured him and added, "If you see her again, let us know about it and we'll tell her to go away, alright?"
Estel nodded and looked at his brother. Giving him a warm smile, Elrohir wiped the tears away and ruffled his hair.
Now, King Elessar, once Estel, once Strider, once known by many more names, looked at his son as he finished his bedtime story.
"Did she haunt you again, adar?" Eldarion asked his father.
"No, my son, she did not," Elessar replied.
And like his father, Eldarion was not easily satisfied. "What made her go away?" he asked.
The king shrugged, ruffling his son's hair. "I do not know," he answered honestly. In all likelihood he had simply come to understand that his mother was not real, after all. Even if that brought a tinge of sadness.
"What was the tale that Elrohir thought Erestor told you?" Eldarion asked in curiosity.
"If I remember correctly, it was 'The Hunt of the Living Dead'," he replied and smiled as his son nodded and seemed to think for a long moment.
"That was a weird story, adar. I prefer the others stories about your hunting trip with the twins or Legolas." Eldarion told him.
"Do you?" There was a tinge of a playful grin on his lips.
"The hunting trip is better than this creepy tale," Eldarion replied with a wide grin.
"Ah," Elessar said knowingly, "Well, don't you think it's time for you to sleep now?"
The boy nodded, clearly disappointed but he obediently closed his eyes as his father pulled the sheets over him.
An hour later, a terrified scream woke the entire house.

Jennings County man arrested for injuring child
A North Vernon man is under arrest after police say he critically injured an 18-month-old girl.
Jennings County Sheriff's deputies arrested Ryan James Shelley, 27, on preliminary charges of felony aggravated battery with serious injury and felony neglect. More charges are expected.
Shelley told police he was watching his girlfriend's children when the 18-month-old fell off the kitchen counter. First responders began CPR on the child and she was airlifted to a Louisville hospital.
Doctors say the child's injuries were not consistent with a fall, and that the injuries indicate that the girl had been shaken forcefully. She remains in the critical intensive care unit on full life support.
When deputies arrived at Shelley's home, they found him hiding in the closet of a rear bedroom. He was taken into custody without incident.
Shelley admitted lying about the girl falling off the counter and that he had shaken her because she would not stop crying. He is being held at the Jennings County Jail pending formal charges.

- Bow Hunting (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/bow-hunting/)
- - discouragement (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/bow-hunting/526-discouragement.html)
in my first season hunting i was excited bc i had been long waiting for my chance to go out with my dad and shoot my own buck but even with practice at field judgment on distance i miscalculated in the woods i think and i shot an 8 point and it was a solid hit in the vitals im sure but when i went to track it about an hour and a half later with my dad we found no blood at first but using hair we found and twigs that were snapped found massive blood about 50 yards to the left of where i shot it behind some brush. it crossed a river and then laid down i know bc i found a spot that was obviously layed on and a pool of blood about a foot by foot but again a blood trail went farther and it was a steady trail of blood a good amount for about another 300 yards but then it stopped and blood started to diminish and get smaller and eventually stopped and no dear i was wondering where i could have hit it and if it most likely died bc it rain towards a swamp and there was deffinately enough blood for it to have bled to death.
and the blood was abit on the dark side in some spots there was foam or bubbles?? but i dont think it was the lung i dont think it'd run that far
while it stinks that you didnt recover the deer,dont be discouraged.It sounds to me that you didnt wait long enough befor looking for the deer.we all get excited when we shoot a deer but you have to wait.If you know your shot was good dont go trailing the deer all your gonna do is push it.the fact that you found a bed and it was bloody meens you were pushing the deer.Your shot probably hit him in the gut.if it was a heart or lung shot ,the deer would have gone no futher than 200 yrds.you made a mistake that sooner or later everyone makes,be glad you got it out of the way and learn from it.By the way why didnt you follow the deer into the swamp?
o beleive me i followed the deet into the swamp i trailed it for 2 days. But u were right when i first shot and heard a solid thump the deer kicked its back legs up and ran i caught my breathe and looked for my arrow about 20 yards from where i shot and i thought i might have spooked it when it layed down so i went back to my stand for around 2 hours then checked the trails for the next 2 days straight even took a day off of school to go check the trail.
hey it happens to everyone at least once
yeah dont feel discouraged about that. we have all done that at some time or another. by the way you say the deer jumped after the shot it does sound like you gut shot it. i have been with my uncle when he shot a deer in 1 lung (prob) and we never recovered it. an example of us trying to recover the deer to soon. it went down basically right where he shot it which was 35 yds behind my stand. i heard it wheezing trying to breath. and then it quited down and did not make anymore noise or even move. i thought it was a goner. so i started down my tree and the deer never moved but as soon as my boots hit the leaves on the ground it jumped up and ran off. i still thought it would never make it far but we never found it. it looked like lung blood also. deer are tough animals and if they are pushed it can be very difficult to find them. think about the perfect shots right in the heart and they take off running for 100 yds without even a heart. they are survivors for sure.
you would be suprised at how far a deer will run when shot. My uncle shot a ten point last season and it ran about 300yrd. and then my Dad shot the buck, both shots were in the lungs. Sometimes they die on the spot and sometimes they keep going a long way.
ya u guys are right thanks im 15 and i can pull an 80 pound bow back but my arm length is 24 i can shoot 25 but im more comfortable at 24 i was wondering what bow i should get that u guys have personally heard good things from within the price range of <600$ thanks
I wish I had $600 to spend on a bow
i've been saving for a while bc i love the sport and so does my dad

collaborative quilt for a good cause
Sew Memphis
Tuesday, April 9, 2013 at 10:00 AM - Saturday, August 31, 2013 at 5:00 PM (CDT)
Are you interested in making a group quilt to give away for a good cause? It's free, and participation times are flexible!
We can work on this quilt during Sew Happy on Wednesdays from 5:00 - 7:00 p.m., or just about anytime you can be at the shop. Participants can also take home the pattern pieces and background fabric to make blocks at home.
We'll be using Carolyn Friedlander's fresh, modern XOXO pattern which entails some paper piecing. But do not fear! Beginners are welcome! Check out this youtube video if you're interested in learning more about paper piecing. Please know, it's super easy, and the pattern we'll use is also easier than the one in the video.
We'll determine the size of our quilt by the number of quilters who are interested in helping and by the collectively agreed upon recipient. We could give the quilt to someone receiving chemo therapy, or a mom with a premature baby, or a veteran, or someone with a loved one in hospice. All ideas should be discussed! And if, for some reason, a bunch of grown people can't agree on who to give a quilt to, we'll have a drawing:)
born of hopeful conversation between friends, and raised on visions of bright cotton fabric, sewing classes, and community-building, sew memphis opened on may 1, 2012. browse our eclectic inventory of modern textiles and thoughtfully selected notions, books, and patterns; take a class; participate in a children's workshop; learn to quilt; make a purse; master a new skill; book us for parties; create hip kids' clothes (and grownup clothes too); sew with friends; or teach us a thing or two. join us as we celebrate an age-old craft with contemporary innovation. this inspired blend of old and new is Sew Memphis!

I think it would be enough to just select/hilight the selection in Source mode, so for example if I select an image in design mode and then switch to source mode that the image tag get's highlighted and scrolled into view if nessesary. This functionality existed as a patch/hack for fckeditor1.6. Also it should do the same thing in reverse when something is selected in source mode and then you switch back to design mode that the selection is kept. This solution would be easier and less confusing as there is no sepperate button to just show the (read only) selection source.

Although moving too slow at this point to be considered a "Persistence of Vision" device, the pyMCU with 10 LEDs attached makes for one of the simplest light painting bars that I've seen. In addition to a small bill of materials, programming is fairly straightforward. Everything is run off of a computer, so only one program is needed to both work work the image and run the LEDs (Python code and setup video included after the "read more").
While simple, this device is limited in a few ways. First of all, it's black (red) and white. Possibly a RGB LED strip could be used. like in this hack. The linked hack uses Python to translate the picture into something that an Arduino can use. The Arduino microprocessor then has it's own code to execute the lighting instructions.
This brings up another obvious limitation of a pyMCU light painting setup; you're tethered to a PC via the USB cable. For tests this is fine, and might actually be advantageous in some situations, but it would be difficult to do light paintings in a natural setting while dragging a computer around. On the other hand, I keep thinking back to my CNC light painting setup, and if the pyMCU/LED array was attached, some interesting effects could be done.
Here's the video of the LED array being put together. I was running it as a chaser at the time, but the physical setup is the same. See this post for chaser code and a better explanation. Also, make sure you don't misplace a LED, I did that and kept thinking that pin 4 was malfunctioning!
Here's the code so far for the "persistence of camera" setup. When this is run, the LEDs will change in sequence. By moving it across the lens when it's open, you'll be able to light paint whatever is on the image that you use. The image needs to be 10 pixels high, and preferably black and white.
#uses 10 LEDs in sequence to display an image
import Image
import pymcu
mb = pymcu.mcuModule()
image_input = raw_input("Image (with extension) to use? ")
image_work = Image.open(image_input).convert("1")
for i in range(0, image_work.size[0]):
scanLine = ""
scanLight = []
#loop through y values (j) at X coordinate (i)
for j in range(0, image_work.size[1]):
pixel_value = image_work.getpixel((i,j))
#if pixel is black, turn on LED
if pixel_value != 0:
scanLine += "0"
scanLine += "1"
scanLight.append(j + 1)
print scanLine, scanLight
if len(scanLight) > 0:
Thanks to Richard Wardlow of pyMCU for helping me with this code. You can buy one of these little boards off of their store if you're interested in checking it out. Also I modified the moster thing from an image off of Joystick Division.

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Hi Rita, it's good to hear from you!
My understanding is that synthroid, once it is stopped, stops affecting you soon afterward if not immediately. Synthroid is not actually a drug so once you stop taking it, your body is no longer affected by it. So that would mean that your hormonal levels would start leveling off right away. But hat is something the doctor can better explain. My understanding of the situation extends only to how hormones and Synthroid may affect your anxiety, or other emotional effects of hormones.
I know waiting is hard. But in the meanwhile, try working on some of your anxiety with the resources you have. It will help give you a focus. Anytime you feel stress about your health issues, try something new to alleviate your anxiety. Also, have you tried joining any support groups for anxiety or even for hormonal problems? If you need help finding support groups, I'd be glad to help. Joining a group would help you feel less alone and give you some good information about what others experience. And you can do it on line so you would not have to find one near by your home.
It is difficult to understand why God has allowed this situation for you. But He does not do anything without a reason. And someday it will be clear. My guess is that you will be used to help someone who needs someone to turn to. Your ability to understand and give is perfect for helping someone else!
Let me know how your test turns out next week. And if you want to work on your anxiety and other feelings around what you are going through, I'm here.
Take care, Rita. I will keep praying for you.

I have had 3 treatments on my lower abs, and two treatments on my upper abs and love handles. No results yet. I've answered the questions below, but it is probably too soon to give a fair response. I'd like to know about others who have undergone Lipo Dissolve. I'm anxious to here others experiences so I know what to expect.

& the weather & funny things that were said arond the thxgiving table & christmas dinner thats cool
Hi everyone
I'm new to these sort of things and thought i'd should bring something to the party so to speak.
My two kids are getting really excited about Christmas, but my oldest (8yrs) is starting to doubt that Santa exists. So i went online and bought him a Santa Pack which was fantastic. Its a personal letter from Santa through the post which I could add details to, a photo of him caught on Santa's Spy Cam and loads of other personalised goodies with his name all over them. If you fancy treating your kids search santa-post on google, its on page 2 and about 3rd down
I would definitely recommend! x
thats really neat keek iam gonna do it now 4 the grand daughter but shes 3 so she believes heck even her granny still believes ,
Yes he absolutely loved it! He was jumping around saying "WOW how did he take a picture of me??!!" "I cant believe it!" It really made my day seeing how excited he was, and he's even behaving better knowing that Santa is keeping an eye on him. Its was really great quality too. I've tried some other companies before which weren't very good so make sure you choose the right one and remember to put the dash between 'santa' and the 'post ' (santa-post.co.uk)
its nice to share :) x
OMG thats so cute i love it he loved it thats great he believes again
how long u think u will B able 2 get away with it again?
they grow up so fast then naughty kids @ school says " your a baby there is no santa " lol taking away all the lovleness of the joy & season .
but hes happy now .
i will remember the -between santa will let u know how it went
I reckon I might have another year out of him and then i've got to try some bartering techniques to stop him from spoiling it for his sister! So that will be interesting.
Let me know if you buy one of the letters - would be great to hear how excited they are!!
i will surly let u know
A girlfriend :(

I have a 5-year-old who still does not sleep all night regularly. Lately she has been waking multiple times a night, and dh and I are about at our wits end. We also have an 11-month-old baby who still, obviously, wakes. My mom was telling me about a friend of hers whose daughter, about the same age, has ADHD and had a really difficult time sleeping, and they were giving her melatonin shortly before bed. Supposedly the melatonin has made a HUGE difference. My dd sounds a lot like this girl in terms of behavior, and I wouldn't be surprised if my dd were at some point to be suspected or labelled as having ADHD. But regardless of the source of the issues, I was wondering if anyone out there has tried melatonin for helping a child to sleep? Did it work? How much would you give? Are there any side effects or potential risks I should know about?
What we've taught our kids to do (and we had to do it with both of them) is rather than lying in bed screaming for us, they could bring their pillows and blanket and come sleep on the floor next to us. Dd does that every.single.night. She's always been a lousy sleeper; she reverse cycled and got most of her nutrition at night by nursing, so she woke every 2 hours until she was 2. We then moved her to her own bed in a room with her brother, and she'd wake and dive into bed with us. By the time, she was 4, we had to stop co-sleeping for a variety of reasons (dh found out he had sleep apnea, dd gets hot and kicks off the blankets, which also means kicking the blankets off us, and she was getting too tall to fit). So, now she starts in her own bed. For a couple of years she mostly slept there, but in the last year, she'll come to her nest on our floor about 2 am. Ds (age 10) does it 1-2 times a week.
That is really good to know. She doesn't have trouble falling asleep, just staying asleep.
I wonder if I could get her to come in and lay on our floor, or if she'd be too scared to walk down the hall in the dark...
I would not use melatonin regularly, either for myself or my child. I live in Germany, and melatonin is not sold OTC here. I'm not even sure if you can get a prescription for it.
Melatonin is a hormone which is produced by the brain in accordance with light and dark. Darkness is the signal for the body to produce it. You know how some people get depressed in the winter months (I think it's called Seasonal Affective Disorder)? And it has been theorized that it is the effect of so little sunlight? Well, some people who take melatonin too much end up getting horribly depressed in the same way because they are artificially stimulating their brain in the "dark" cycle more than it would on its own.
I used to take it a few times a month, and noticed that I would get depressed way more than I would normally. It took me awhile to put 2 and 2 together, but I just so happened to google why melatonin is deemed unsafe by some (for example EU governments), and after reading about how it works and causes depression, I realized that was why I was getting depressed. So now I only take it when I travel back to the US and face really bad jetlag, and only for a few days and that's it.
Personally I would not give a child melatonin. If you must, monitor his or her moods carefully. I would rather recommend going to someone who practices Chinese medicine or a naturopath or chiropractor, if you're looking for natural solutions.
Good luck!

Thank you P.J., that's the type of information I'm looking for! I didn't want to rush right out and give her a "miracle cure" without having some good background. At this point I'm really backing off from the idea of melatonin anyway because of what Lynn said about it not helping them stay asleep. I don't need something to help her fall asleep, just stay asleep.
What about trying a magnesium/calcium supplement before bed? We use Natural Calm. DD (5 yo) calls it her "bedtime lemonade drink" (we have the lemon flavor, sweetened with stevia.)
I personally have a hard time staying asleep--it has always been my form of insomnia. Natural Calm has helped me immensely!

West brings out best in Pirates' bats
SAN FRANCISCO — The West Coast is typically not where clubs find their offensive rhythm.
The large dimensions of the parks, coupled with the heavy, marine layer air of the coast, often create run-depressing environments.
AT&T Park in San Francisco and Petco Park in San Diego are the two most difficult ballparks to score runs in this season according to ESPN's Park Factors, which compares the rate of statistics at the home park to the rate on the road.
But in the first four games of their West Coast swing through San Diego and San Francisco, the Pirates produced 22 runs, including a 10-5 win over the Giants on Thursday when they roughed up Matt Cain.
It marks their best four-game output since scoring 30 runs in a four-game stretch in late June (21-25) also along the West Coast, at the Angels and Mariners.
So what is it about the worst offensive environments in baseball that are bringing the best out of the Pirates' lineup?
Manager Clint Hurdle said his club is better using the whole field, perhaps an approach taken more seriously — consciously or subconsciously — in places where it's difficult to hit a home run.
"It's something we've been working on," Hurdle said of an all-fields approach. "Offensively, all our hits have been to the big part of the field."
It's an approach the club has tried to have third baseman Pedro Alvarez buy into throughout his career. Alvarez has been particularly effective at lining drives into the gaps on the trip.
He tripled and enjoyed a Little League-style homer — a single and three-base error — in San Diego, and he hit two ground-rule doubles Thursday in San Francisco.
The second double scored two runs in the Pirates' seven-run fifth, tying their best inning of the season. With the shot that one-bounced over the right-center field wall at AT&T Park, Alvarez tied a career high with 85 RBI — with 35 games to play in the season.
Alvarez doesn't think the team has altered its approach on the road.
"I think we keep the same approach no matter where we're at," he said. "We try to keep a gap-to-gap approach in every ballpark we play in.
"I think we've had the same approach all year. We're going to have our days where we do really well and days where we don't."
The team would like nothing more than for Garrett Jones' third-inning homer into McCovey Cove to mark the beginning of a turnaround for the struggling slugger who entered Thursday batting just .133 in August and .205 in the second half of the season.
Ironically, Jones said a day before the blast that he had become too pull-oriented and was working on better using the whole field. Jones said he was not trying to pull the pitch he homered on Thursday night.
In franchise history, the Pirates have homered into a natural body of water three times. Jones has done it twice season, also homering into the Allegheny River.
"That was just being on time," Jones said. "Being on time for his best fastball, staying real short on a 3-2 count. … It was just a reaction."

Greene's conviction for criminal confinement as a class B felony, see Indiana Code section 35-42-3-3, and other offenses was affirmed on direct appeal in a memorandum decision. Greene v. State, No. 49A05-0905-CR-250 (Ind. Ct. App. Feb. 17, 2010). The Marion Superior Court granted post-conviction relief, finding grounds counsel had been ineffective in failing to challenge the sufficiency of the evidence on the elevated confinement charge. Citing Long v. State, 743 N.E.2d 253 (Ind. 2001), and Redman v. State, 743 N.E.2d 263 (Ind. 2001), the Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's judgment granting post-conviction relief in State v. Greene, 2 N.E.3d 737 (Ind. Ct. App. 2013), vacated. The Supreme Court has granted a petition to transfer the case and has assumed jurisdiction over the appeal.

Simplify with assumptions can do it:

Out[1]//InputForm= Sqrt[a^2 - b^2]
Of course, that equality isn't true in general.

Melon Farmers Face Another Hurdle
ROCKY FORD, Colo. - First it was a Listeria scare, then drought. Melon farmers in Rocky For have some hurdles to overcome.
The Hirakata family knows their melons. They've been planting them for more than 100 years, but this year isn't like the rest.
"The drought is hitting us pretty hard. We are only planting only 25% of our acres," said Hirakata.
But, he is planting 30% more melons. He decided not to plant corn or wheat; those crops need too much water.
"The research center has been taking weather records for well over 100 years and this stretch is the worst in terms of lack of precipitation that we've ever seen," said Dr. Michael Bartolow, CSU vegetable crop specialist.
Hirakata is using well water to start this year's melons. There will be 18 acres of cantaloupe. In three months Hirakata will be picking more than 150,000 melons, but that doesn't mean his struggles are over.
"It's going to take a couple of years to recover from this drought," said Hirakata.

It would be wrong to suggest Arsenal have had a simply 'good start'. The campaign they have enjoyed has been better than that.
Arsène Wenger's side have played 15 games in all competitions this season and have won every one apart from the draw at Blackburn on August 19. Given that Arsenal have all-but assured qualification to the Knockout Stages of the Champions League and left pre-season doom-mongerers eating spoonfuls of humble pie, 'a start' does not do credit to their progress. Had the Premier League season still been in its infancy then three managers would not have departed already.
However even Wenger admits there is still a doubt against his side and he knows it will be answered over the course of the next nine days when Arsenal take on two of their traditional top-four rivals - starting with Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday.
"Playing a big side is the last question mark against this side," said Wenger at his pre-match press conference on Friday. "That's what people expect from us but I'm very confident. You want to go into the game and perform at the top level against the big sides. You want to make sure you are at your best. All the rest doesn't concern me too much and I know we have the ability to do it.
"I feel that if we repeat our record against the big teams from last year then we will be very difficult to beat. That's the challenge we face now."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Steel Beam or Wood Reinforcement for 2nd floor addition?
Hi Everybody.
Have another fun problem with my theoretical 2nd floor additiion. My current house, a single story brick (approx 1600sqft) built in 1979, was built on 24" centers. This was apparently legal in Texas for about 2 years, if 3/4" ply skin was applied, then brick. My building line will not allow me to build out without exeptions from the army corps of engineers (which isnt going to happen). reason for addition would be quality of life...I wont be able to afford/find a better house on better property in this area. Others are starting to add on for the same reason.
I cannot level up without reinforcing/supporting the walls. I am trying to weight the cost/feasibility of 1) tearing out sheetrock and adding 2x4/4x4 supports, then re-sheetrock or 2) thinking outside the box and sinking steel beams which would support a steel cap plate/beam (basically building the second floor on stilts above the first floor). I could brick in the beams to look like pillars/decorative.
tearing out the sheetrock and re-supporting would entail a huge mess and at least half the house being unlivable for a time. I have to admit the beam idea is mine and I dont even know if its feasable structurally, let alone monitarily, but Ive floated it by a couple of GCs and they seem to think it can be done (after an initial look like "are you nuts?").
any ideas here? I have never built with steel, so I dont know costs or limitations, but in a perfect world the beams could be set exterior and attatched to the house (or possibly interior over the footing), with the cap beam being laid just under the eves, ready for the 2nd story walls to be attatched after the eves are removed, with minimal interior damage to the house.
The steel support can be done, of course, but at what expense? Generally speaking, all 2 story framing rests on 2x6 walls (with some exceptions). You really need to see what your local inspector and codes have to allow about what you will be getting into. Drywall is relatively cheap, all things considered. If it was my project, I would strip the old rock and add the studs or double the studs as required, depending on the loads you will support. From you added description of the house size, pitch, and ceiling joists, I doubt you will find a way to actually get the addition up without being open for a time. The time of course would depend on the framing crew.
I fully concur with Joasis. You might want to check your local code and also with an engineer for weight limitations as well. Thae last thing you want to do with something like this is to make it too difficult.

In 2013, the GW Cancer Institute (GWCI) was the recipient of two awards that will allow the organization to continue to bring multidisciplinary clinical, research, education, and outreach programs together in a comprehensive approach to cancer prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and survivorship.
The recent three-year, $2.1 million research award from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) supports a collaboration between the Milken Institute School of Public Health (formerly the GW School of Public Health and Health Services) and GWCI, housed in the School of Medicine and Health Sciences (SMHS), to evaluate cancer survivorship care models. The award is part of a larger portfolio of patient-centered research initiatives that addresses PCORI's national research priorities and will provide patients with the tools to make better-informed decisions about their care.
The primary goal of the project is to evaluate the effectiveness that different models of care have on patient-centered outcomes for cancer survivors. Researchers will develop a patient-prioritized framework and instrument to assess high quality survivorship care, drawing from the Cancer Support Community's national system of support to garner diverse patient input on what quality survivorship care looks like. The team will also create a program implementation index to define survivorship models of care using the LIVESTRONG Essential Elements of Survivorship Care, and they will identify high performing programs among those institutions accredited by the American College of Surgeon's Commission on Cancer. Finally, researchers will compare three survivorship care models to assess their impact on patient-prioritized outcomes.
"The goal of our project is to transform cancer care by creating standards of quality that are defined by patients and to use these standards to identify models of survivorship care that are most effective," says Holly Mead, Ph.D., assistant professor of health policy at the MISPH and principal investigator (PI). "We are particularly excited to be working with leading survivor and community cancer organizations to ensure that cancer survivorship care meets the needs of patients," she says.
"This is collaborative research at its best," says Mandi Pratt-Chapman, M.A., associate director of GWCI and co-PI. "It leverages the strengths of our partners, engages patients, and addresses a real gap in health care services delivery for cancer survivors."
Additionally, a $2,122,525 award from the CDC to GWCI in September will support technical assistance for CDC-funded Comprehensive Cancer Control (CCC) programs with a focus on local implementation, systems and environmental changes, sustainable partnerships, and communication strategies. The programs, which are in all 50 states, Washington, D.C., seven tribes and tribal organizations, and seven U.S. Associated Pacific Islands/territories, promote a collaborative process through which a community and its partners pool resources to reduce the burden of cancer.
"The GW Cancer Institute is excited and pleased to support Comprehensive Cancer Control programs through this award. Working with the CDC, we are prioritizing training needs and supporting implementation of proven strategies to reduce the burden of cancer in this country," says Chapman, who serves as PI for the award. "We are taking a multipronged approach to technical support, including the development of free online trainings, monthly webinars, streamlined resource guides, and one-on-one support. We look forward to addressing the needs of local communities, working together with the National Area Health Education Center Organization, the American Cancer Society, C-Change, the Legacy Foundation, LIVESTRONG, the Union for International Cancer Control, and other organizations leading cancer control support across the nation," she says.

Thierry Mugler's 1981 Paris Apartment
Posted: Jul 19 2016
With our emphasis on vintage at Assembly, we continue to look at some of the influential designers inspiring so many of us today!
Thierry Mugler
Born: Strausbourg, France December 21 1948
Study: Strausbourg School of Decorative Art
Books: Thierry Mugler, Photographe (1988) and Fashion Fetish Fantasy (1999)
Triumphs: First collection "Café De Paris" in 1973, first Paris boutique in 1978 at the Place des Victoires, first haute couture collection in 1992, director of George Michael's "Too Funky" video, creator of Demi Moore's famous black dress in "Indecent Proposal"
Aping the 80s? He's the man who predicted power dressing, who's body architecture worked wonders for the wonder woman, who's silhouette was sexual and sculpted and sci-fi. Dynamic, precise, classical, masculine. He made shoulders. And now Thierry Mugler believes the world has become too sterile.
Don't let a tour around his Paris apartment – bare to the point of blankness with a painterly dab of wall deco and the cleanest, most carefully cast objects – confuse his sentiment though. This is subtlety, not sterility. Fundamentals over fluffery.
"I am not trendy, I am not 'in fashion'," Thierry has pointedly said. Mugler's distaste for furniture is obvious, as he has stripped and subtracted, making magic minimalism everywhere in his universe except perhaps his iconographic tailoring. Still, his obsessions remain the same: the naivety of Peter Pan, trompe l'oeil trickery, eye-level arrangement, minor metallics, frescoes from stage design friend Keso Dekker, a bedroom so pure it suggests nothing but sleep, that mattress with its plywood platform, the welcoming white, the luxury of light.

Soles4Souls Shoe Drives Underway
We've all heard how people love to buy shoes. Well, now there's an opportunity for people throughout North America to feel better about their addiction. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? and NAPO, the National Association of Professional Organizers are both partners in a national program called Soles4Souls and have teamed up to drive local shoe collections for charity that are unprecedented in size.
NAPO has challenged its members across the country to collect as many shoes as possible. The winner will receive a trip to Haiti to deliver shoes to people in need. It's a challenge that local professional organizers everywhere are motivated to win. Here at 1-800-GOT-JUNK? we are also looking into the possibility of working with Soles4Souls to offer a similar challenge to our franchise partners across the country.
Soles4Souls is a national charity with a simple mission to collect shoes and distribute them to people in need. Since 2005, Soles4Souls has given away over 13 million pairs of new and gently worn shoes (currently donating one pair every 7 seconds.) The shoes have been distributed to people in over 125 countries,
including Kenya, Thailand, Nepal and the United States. Soles4Souls is a 501(c)(3) recognized by the IRS and donating parties are eligible for tax advantages.
Soles4Souls offers a simple way to help reduce the strain on our environment. Last year alone, Americans discarded more than 300 million pairs of shoes. When these shoes break down in our landfills, the toxic glue that holds the shoes together can leak into our water supply and atmosphere.
The current goal is to collect 12 Million pairs of shoes by June 30th, 2012. NAPO members and 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchise partners across the country are thrilled to be involved in a charity that is a natural fit with their business models and puts smiles on the faces of people around the world. 1-800-GOT-JUNK? franchises in Chicago, New Jersey, Denver, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Asheville, Nashville, and Cleveland have participated so far.
