Nomura forced to sack HK staff as prospects dim
Japanese broker lays off 15 analysts, and more are expected to be fired next week, in plans to cut US$1 billion in costs by March next year
The Hong Kong office of Nomura fired almost 30 per cent of its research team yesterday as an uncertain global economic outlook forces the Japanese brokerage to cut costs.
According to people who asked not to be named, Nomura sacked 15 analysts out of a total of about 50. Globally, the company has 720 researchers, according to its website.
The people said more lay-offs were expected next week in Nomura's investment banking department in Hong Kong.
Last week, the company said it would slash US$1 billion in costs by March next year to repair its balance sheet.
Some bankers said Nomura might have to cut at least 1,000 staff globally to meet the cost-saving target.
The latest lay-offs in Hong Kong follow the firing of several equities sales staff in the city last week.
A Nomura spokesman declined to confirm the number of research analysts the bank has in Hong Kong, and would only say the number of jobs affected yesterday is less than 30 per cent.
While Hong Kong appears to have weathered the downturn caused by the euro-zone sovereign debt crisis better than Europe and the US, the region is starting to feel the pinch, with junior staff being laid off at several investment banks recently as well as some highly paid bankers.
"If pressure continues to mount, more banks will look at their business and pull back from Hong Kong and restrict operations," said Paul McSheaffrey, a China partner with global accounting firm KPMG.
Although the number of authorised financial institutions increased to 198 last year from 193 in 2010, international banks have been scaling back as profitability continues to weaken.
KPMG said in a recent report that over the past year it had become more common for banks to outsource various back-office functions to reduce costs.
Meanwhile, headcounts were cut to align with the revenue streams, it said.
Last month, Spain's BBVA laid off about 50 employees in Hong Kong. Most of them were in equities-related sales and trade, including some in the sophisticated structured-products team.
Those lay-offs were followed last week by Deutsche Bank, which axed about 80 jobs in its Hong Kong and Tokyo offices - mostly sales and trading staff and some equities-related bankers and research analysts.
Daiwa Securities, which cut about 100 jobs in Hong Kong early this year, also trimmed more staff recently, including several senior executives. The previous staff cuts involved mostly relatively junior positions.

Art of Essay Writing
Keith Adams
I love essays! I enjoy reading them, checking them, teaching my students how to generate them, but most of all I enjoy writing them! You want to ask why. I hope after reading my article you will understand. And I so much believe that you will also fall in love with the incredible world of essays. Let's start our trip from a short background. The word "essay" originated from French word "essai" which means "attempt, effort, sketch". And this translation reflects the essence of the task you are assigned at your college. Really, it is your personal attempt to give a challenging sketch on some engrossing issue. Unlike other academic assignments, essay suggests freedom of your creative work. Its main advantage is that you can write it on any topic, in any style. Essay is your own point of view on something you have heard, read, seen etc. The forefront of the essay is your personality, your thoughts, feelings and your life position. You have a unique chance to enter a reasonable controversy with other authors, as the teacher expects you to show your erudition in the subject. However, you should remember that regardless freedom of the writing process, it is not that easy at all. Because you are expected to find an original and capturing idea (even in the traditional context) and exceptional opinion on some problem.
The title of essay does not strictly depend on the essay topic: the title can also serve as a starting point in your reflection; it can express the relation of the whole and the parts. A free composition of essay is subject to its inner logic, it is an emphasized position of the author. The style of the essay is marked by its aphoristic, paradoxical and figurative character. To convey your personal perception of the world you should: employ a lot of capturing examples, draw parallels, choose analogies, use various associations. One of the characteristic features of essay is the wide usage of numerous expressive means, such as metaphors, parable and allegoric figures, symbols and comparisons. Your can enrich and make your essay more interesting if you include in it: unpredictable conclusions, unexpected turning points, interesting clutches of events.Essay presents a dynamic interchange of author's arguments, supporting evidence and questions.
Be brief, but at the same time avoid absolute simplicity. No one will like reading a monotonous narration. Completing the draft of your essay, read it aloud, yes, aloud. You will be struck by the number of rough details in your essay. You should get rid of them with no regret. If you have to say something new, original and exclusive, then the genre of essay is your genre. Be creative, free your mind and may be you will reveal a great essayist in yourself.

Both played left tackle in college before finding a home elsewhere with the Green Bay Packers.
They're not alone. Of the Packers' 17 offensive linemen, 13 of them played left tackle in college.
"Maybe it's coincidence or whatever, but just the name left tackle, back side, blind side of the quarterback, one thing you get is you get players that are on the stress point," offensive line coach James Campen told Packer Report on Tuesday. "Moving them around is not that big of a deal. Sure it is with footwork and mechanics in going from a left-hand stance to a right-hand and so forth, but you've got a guy that's already been in the fire and understands the importance of protection. If you move him over to right tackle or right guard, his urgency level is already embedded in his head. There's an advantage to that."
Of the Packers' five starters, left tackle Marshall Newhouse, left guard T.J. Lang and right tackle Bulaga played left tackle in college. Of the five backups who were on the roster last year, Dietrich-Smith, Ray Dominguez, Derek Sherrod and Herbert Taylor were collegiate left tackles.
While the Packers have backed off their reliance on small, athletic blockers, they still put a high value on quickness. That's a major reason why they've consistently drafted or signed college left tackles, because those blockers need quick feet to survive on the edge against most defenses' top pass rushers.
Not all of those linemen, however, have what it takes to play offensive tackle in the NFL. Maybe they aren't tall enough or long enough. Maybe they aren't quite quick enough.
"You're looking for a guy that can bend and has pad level in the box," Campen said. "If he's a guy that can bend, typically those guys are shorter, heavier and have power and are able to create some power movement in the run game and also be able to hold the point. If he can do that, you say, 'Wow, maybe that guy can play guard.' Some tackles can't; they don't function well down there."
At Iowa, Bulaga started at left guard as a true freshman before moving to left tackle for his first two seasons. He was drafted to be Chad Clifton's successor at left tackle, but when right tackle Mark Tauscher was lost for the season, Bulaga made a career-changing switch.
"Initially, it was a little bit of an adjustment, but once I got the footwork down, it wasn't too big of a deal," Bulaga said. "It took me probably five or six weeks until I started feeling really comfortable with it."
At Idaho State, Dietrich-Smith started 10 games at left guard as a freshman, five games at left guard, five at right tackle and one as a blocking tight end as a sophomore before injuries forced him to move to left tackle as a junior. He stayed there as a senior, when he was named the team's offensive MVP.
Now, he's entering his second season as the Packers' top interior reserve.
"You definitely have to be able to move your feet in this offense or you're not going to make it too far," he said.
T.J. Lang, a fourth-round pick in 2009 who started at both tackle slots as a rookie, won the starting job at left guard last season. If quick feet are valued at tackle, quick thinking is valued at guard. It might be only one step down the line of scrimmage but it's a totally different game.
"When you're playing guard, you're working mostly with the center and the other guard — passing off games with the inside guys," Lang said. "Stuff happens a lot faster inside. At tackle, you're more in space and you have time to read the defense and read the pass rusher that's across from you. At tackle, you're going against speedy, athletic guys; at guard, you're going against bigger, heavy-set, stronger guys. It's something you've got to adapt to — the different style of player you're going against and getting used to playing in a tighter window."

These are just some pictures from the Port Huron to Mac sailing race a few years ago. These were taken at the departure point in Port Huron.
That huge trimaran holds all the speed records of the race to this day. It's 67' feet long, counting bow sprit, with a 97' mast and is built for speed, not comfort. The pictures don't do the size justice.
That water really is that blue, hence the name Bluewater Bridge. That where Lake Huron empties into the Huron river and begins its' travel into the lower Great Lakes.
There is no way to describe the feeling of "smallness" you get, if you ever pass close to one of these lake freighters. It's like being passed by a mountain.
As for the guy in the lounger, who says all rednecks are in the south?
And I just liked the bird on barbed wire for the contrast.

Best Ever Chunky Chili
Recipe by Sharon Anne
This is the best homemade chili recipe ever. A real crowd pleaser; I'll be making enough, in a BIGGER pressure cooker tomorrow, for a "potato bar" party for 65, which inspired me to share the family-sized recipe here (leftovers are wonderful!).
Top Review by Jezagerm
What a wonderful and filling Chili recipe! I keep trying new ones in hopes of finding The One, and this is one of the best so far! A few things I had to do differently: I used dried kidney beans instead of navy beans, and since I don't have a pressure cooker I just left them standing in water overnight then put them in the crock pot, covered them with water, and left them to cook for 2 hours on high the next morning. I browned the veg and meat, added the rest of the ingredients, and then, after draining the beans, put all of the ingredients into the crock pot and cooked on low for about 6 hours. I also added two cups of the liquid from the beans which I had reserved - just to make a little more. I used dijon mustard (1 tbs) since it was the only thing I had, and celery salt since I had no onion powder. The results were WONDERFUL and I am looking forward to the left overs! Thanks for posting!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 1⁄2 cups dry pinto beans
- 1 1⁄2 cups dried navy beans
- water
- 1 small bay leaf
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1 tablespoon cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3⁄4 teaspoon dry mustard
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1⁄2 lb ground beef
- 1⁄2 onion, diced
- 1⁄2 green pepper, diced
- 1 celery rib, diced
- 1 (32 ounce) can tomato puree
- 1 (10 ounce) can tomatoes, diced
- 2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
- 1 1⁄2 cups ketchup
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
Directions See How It's Made
- Cover beans with water and bring to a boil; set aside to soak at least 1 hour. Rinse, discarding bean water and recover beans with more water by 2-inches. Season and pressure cook, see tips (or soak overnight, then season and cook for 60-90 min, adding water as necessary).
- Tips: Bring a 5 qt pressure cooker up to 15 lb pressure (PSI, 2nd ring for 2nd generation cookers). Cook 15 minutes @ sea level (adding 1 minute per 1000 ft in altitude) or consult the Ball Blue Book.
- Softening Beans: NEVER add acidic foods (such as tomato products, lemon juice or vinegar) BEFORE the beans are fully softened.
- In a 2nd large stock pot, brown the meat and veggies, add remaining ingredients and softened beans, simmer uncovered 1 hour.

Tom Cruise Shows His Inner '80s Rock Star
This photo marks the first time that I have actively lusted after Tom Cruise since he hung from those cords in "Mission: Impossible." Over the weekend, Tom tweeted this image of himself from the set of "Rock of Ages," where he is playing Stacee Jaxx, an aging rock star lothario with long hair, a super ripped chest, and oodles of tattoos. Apparently, we can look forward to Tom's rendition of "Wanted Dead or Alive" in the movie. "He can sing!" director Adam Shankman elaborates. "It's a miracle." Indeed. [NY Daily News]

The reports from Beijing of signs of popular Chinese sympathy with Google's threat to pull out of the country, in protest at censorship, are fascinating. I wonder whether those photos of wreaths being laid outside Google headquarters in Beijing, could one day be as famous as the statue of liberty photos, taken in Tiananmen Square in 1989.
Ironically, perhaps the best way of monitoring Chinese reaction to the Google story is on the internet itself – which has become the main forum for a snapshot of relatively uncensored Chinese opinion. Those who reckon that the Chinese people are even more nationalistic than the government often cite the rabid tone of much popular internet commentary on issues like Taiwan and Tibet. So what is a Chinese nationalist to do – torn between a love of the internet and a love of his native country? Read more

We are witnessing the end of Europe as we know it and the change may not be pleasant. Europe is now at a crossroads with two paths to consider, neither ending happily. The first is simply to end the Euro experience. The second is a Germany dominated Economic Europe combined with more bureaucratic control over individual countries for the only way the Euro is to work the way the founders want it is simply for the European Union take over the economic decisions of countries involved.
The Euro was designed to facilitate tighter economic integration and force a converging of various European nations. But, trying to economically unite nations as diverse as Greece with the thrifty Germans has proven a failure. As the past decade has shown, the only way this would have worked is if there was a more powerful central government running Europe and thus the rub. The idea of a strong central European Union run from Brussels would have met a less democratic Europe as the present European Union has shown. Nor necessarily would a stronger economic Europe be the result.
If nothing else, the European Union has hardly been willing to listen to voters. If a nation rejected the Euro and inclusion into the European Union, the European elites have simply forced the nation to keep voting until they got the result desired and the recent Greece crisis has shown, the Greeks were told either you do what you are told or else you go under. The Greeks have been profligate with their economic policy and Greece was at a point of no return as their debt levels were too much to handle but when the Greece government wanted a referendum on the program they were asked to carry out, the European masters said no and forced the government to collapse. There was and is still no doubt that Greece needs massive reforms but without the support of those governed, the reforms are doomed. Another problem with the various austerity programs is that while budget cuts and wage cuts are enacted, there is very little incentives for those with money to stay as massive tax increases are enacted as well. With no tax reduction on investments or the producer class, there is very growth oriented policy and with Greece tied to the Euro, the average Greece will continue to see their daily income declining.
The problem originally was that the Euro allowed reckless nations like Greece to borrow money at lower interest rates but there was no option to devalue their own currency to adjust and as National Review Online Ramesh Ponnuru noted, "The economies of France and Germany are so large that a policy designed for the euro zone as a whole would inevitably be a better fit for their needs than for those of the countries on the zone's periphery. But the European Central Bank has given Germany's economy even more weight than its size alone would suggest. The Barclays Capital report found that European monetary policy since 1999 "has tended to correspond more closely with German economic conditions than for the euro area as a whole."
Ramesh Ponnuru added that a looser monetary policy could lead to inflation in Germany and France whereas those weaker nations will have to see lower real wages if there is no additional expansion of monetary policy by the European Central Bank. Ponnuru asked if the various weaker nations would have been better if they would have been allowed to devalue their currencies and as he theorizes, "Taxpayers wouldn't be facing pleas for bailouts."
The real issue is that for past decades, the European elites have forced an experiment upon much of Europe and they often treated opposition as "spasms of irrationality" as Ponnuru noted. The goal was European unity but now European unity is at risk as many German taxpayers are wondering it is worth the effort to subsidize their more reckless neighbors and others are balking at the conditions imposed. The elites are now going for more integration but as Ponnuru, maybe it is time for less integration as he observed that maybe Germany and France along with the other more wealthy northern neighbors creating their own currency and allowing their southern neighbors to slip away Ponnuru conclude, "The wiser course is to ditch the euro. The countries in the most trouble can't leave it because their first whisper would trigger widespread bank runs. If Germany and like-minded nations want to avoid either inflation or bailouts, they themselves should leave en masse — creating a new northern European currency covering a more economically cohesive area. The remaining euro countries could then adopt a realistic exchange rate in relation to this new currency."
That is the rub, ditch the Euro and there is the possibility of bank runs and more economic dislocation. The other option is a less democratic Europe dominated by a resurgent Germany and backed by a increasing more powerful bureaucratic European union. As a recent report in Daily Express reported, "Britain will soon be forced to scrap the pound and join the euro, one of Germany's most senior figures said yesterday. In a chilling threat to UK sovereignty, German finance minister Wolfgang Schauble predicted that all Europe would one day use the single currency. 'Will happen perhaps faster than some in the British Isles currently believe,' he said. His sinister warning followed the emergence of a secret German plan to build a powerful new economic government for the Eurozone and block an EU referendum in Britain."
The European elites want to eliminate nationalism and control all aspects and an independent Great Britain represents a threat to their own control. From this point, Europe has very few good options but Europe may be forced to a more decentralized union which based on each nation determining their own fate, unified by free exchanges of goods across the border. It will mean that Greeks will still be economically stupid and force to suffer the consequences of their decisions but it won't threaten the whole of Europe. It could also mean a freer Europe.

TheatreNOW has launched what could be a long-lived October tradition with "Fright Night."
TheatreNOW has launched what could be a long-lived October tradition with "Fright Night," its dinner theater production that makes an unholy union of Anthony's Lawson's spooky story and chef Denise Gordon's fanciful, fright-themed fare.
The show made its debut last year, but it's back with a revised script, new actors and a different menu, running on weekends through Nov. 2. Some things work better, others not as well, but "Fright Night" is still a special little show that highlights the area's haunted history in a way that's both informative and entertaining.
The intentionally implausible set-up: A trio of college students (Alex Holland, Holly Cole and Zach Pappas, a little under-inspired but watchable enough) break into an abandoned house to spend the night on a dare from an irresponsible professor. But no sooner do they find a book of old ghost stories than they discover that the house isn't so empty after all: a creepy old woman (the truly awesome Penny Kohut, gray of wig and wavery of voice) emerges from the shadows to tell these meddling kids that they're telling the stories all wrong. She then gives them a lesson in how to deliver the old saw about the phantom hitchhiker – the one in which a driver picks up a young girl and takes her home, only to be told when he arrives that the girl, who has now disappeared, died years ago.
The script places the tale's origins in North Carolina, and the rest of the stories all have some kind of local angle, from the classic Maco Light yarn to the one about the guy who was supposedly buried alive in St. James Cemetery at Fourth and Market streets.
I've not done the research so I have no idea if or when any of these tales take detours into over-embellishment. But as the old saying goes, you should never let the facts get in the way of a good story, and it seems like Lawson knows when to follow that maxim while giving enough local flavor to stories about the murdered, the haunted and the headless to make long-time Wilmingtonians like myself more than a little proud of our town's haunted past. (Although it's kind of creepy to think a man suspected of being Jack the Ripper once walked the streets of the Port City.)
As the tale winds toward an unexpected conclusion, our college students begin to suspect their host may be less kindly than they initially thought. While the audience contemplates their fate, there are plenty of chances to sample chef Gordon's Halloween-inspired menu.
A beet salad was tasty, with beets thinly sliced to look like night crawlers, but the only thing scary about the "frankenfish," aka grilled salmon, was how dry it was, something a "backwoods bayou sauce" (it tasted like a dill tartar sauce) helped remedy. The fried potato "mummy toes," however, were a nice touch. The evening was capped by a lush, colorful Halloween cake, an idea that is as fun and original as "Fright Night" itself.

Well it seems since SRO has turned off comments on his banning articles that the squirrelly, rambling, chain of thought discussions have been meandering around the Vine perhaps in search of a home. No doubt this has been done before in the almost 10 year history of this place but it seems to have gone the way of the Dodo bird.

In recognition of its success in combating MDR-TB and other global health issues, Socios En Salud (PIH's partner organization in Peru) recently accepted two distinguished awards.
Dr. Jaime Bayona, founding director of Socios En Salud (center), with Dr. Anany Gretchko Prosper of Zanmi Lasante and Paul Zintl of PIH, holding the Kochon prize certificate awarded to SES
The Carso Institute, which funds organizations in the Latin American and Caribbean region who are effectively enhancing the well-being of the population and building leaders in these fields named SES an "exceptional institution" and presented the award to SES founder and executive director Jaime Bayona on behalf of the organization on September 8th in Mexico City.
The Stop TB Partnership and Kochon Foundation also recognized SES's contribution to global health care by awarding it the Kochon prize. The award is bestowed annually to leaders in the fight against tuberculosis. Jaime Bayona accepted the honor on behalf of Socios En Salud on October 17th at the opening ceremony of the World Conference of the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease in Paris.

Sewickley Academy girls turn focus to next season with returning roster
After finishing the season last week, members of the Sewickley Academy girls basketball team began thinking about next year, when all players are expected to return.
"We're excited," said Amanda McLeod, one of three junior co-captains.
"I see a team with a bright future," agreed coach Allen Vaccarelli.
After switching to an up-tempo offense in the second half of the season, the Panthers scored more and committed fewer turnovers.
In a rematch with Cornell last week, they lost by only six points after losing by 36 a month ago.
"We've been getting better," junior Katelyn Ripple said.
With several close section losses,Vaccarelli said his team's record (6-14 overall, 3-9 in Section 1-A) was deceiving.
"If we made one shot or made one steal, or grabbed one more rebound, we would have won and been in the (WPIAL) playoffs," he said.
Freshman Maddy Casale (160 points), Ripple (146) and sophomore Kayla Guerin (70) led the Panthers in scoring.
Casale also had the most assists (35) and was second in steals with 46.
Sophomores Riley Roberts and Rylee Vaccarelli were second and third in assists with 30 and 28, respectively.
Ripple led the teams in rebounds (175) and steals (70).
Junior Mackenzie Pryor was second in rebounds (103) and third in steals (34).
To prepare for next season, Pryor said she and her teammates are considering attending a summer camp.
"Possibly, we'll also do some drills in the fall, but we play other sports and can't always devote as much time to basketball as we would like," said McLeod, who was among team leaders with 101 rebounds.
The Panthers finished tied for fifth in Section 1-A, just one spot away from a playoff berth.
They earned section wins over Western Beaver (2) and Aliquippa. They also suffered single-digit losses to Union, Aliquippa, Rochester and Cornell.

Yes, and to-day, too, do they not proclaim the tombola where once they announced a victory?
Rudolph Brox returned from the tombola, where he had drawn a silver match-box.
Somebody won the tombola at last, and Pepe told Caper he should wait for the fireworks and the concert.
At a really good tombola, where the prizes are high, there is no end of fun and gayety among the people.
As lotteries are illegal they, being pious, hated them; anyway they decided to call it a tombola.
And we see the quinquina (formed by five numbers) drawn, and then the first tombola, and the second.
In the afternoon the men off duty amuse themselves for a couple of hours with the "tombola," a game much liked by our sailors.
Our second was divided between the tombola just described, in the afternoon, and the quiet of the American Chapel in the morning.
The tombola, which is the great prize, is won by whoever first has his whole fifteen numbers drawn.
To attract custom and push the sale of refreshments, the proprietor of the ball ends the Sunday hop with a tombola.
"Italian lotto-style lottery," 1880, from Italian tombolare "to tumble, fall upside down."

Architectural hand drawings, please leave critique :]
Starting with a few projects, these were actually done freehand save a few construction lines to get my dimensions
here comes the sketchbook
Der class man,love the wood flooring in d first 1,very neat 4 freehand
keelman, thanks, thats what different pencils do for you, The wood grain was done with a .3 HB and the rest of the lines were done with a 2B, construction lines (theyre hard to see) were done with a 2H
Nice sketches man,love d writing dats with them,dey done with ink or pencils?,I hav sum more sketches up if u wana look
keelman91: Ink, i filled an entire sketchbook with pencil since feb but my scanner sucks and often doesnt pick up the whole page, so ill upload those later, that sketchbook i posted i just bought on Wednesday but i plan on ink with every page
HerrleerzeichenS: Thanks man
Loving the line style. Very nifty. Really like the little panels with the abstraction of the orchid. Can't wait to see more!
Freddy Scribbles: thanks man, i have an older sketchbook i might up soon, and a few more pages from this one, i just got it on thurs so it's still relatively new
first page, inverted cause i thought it looked cool lol..

just something i drew after watching plague dogs, highly recommend it
a few sketches from last night, trying to work out some parasitic aspect to this orchid loft
some drawings from earlier, got my idea worked out
Crop those scans!
Cross those lines! Endpoints traverse each other! Some of yours don't even meet. Even for quick sketching it's good practice to anchor the line where it begins and terminates. We all struggle with that. (This is really a critique for me, I'm just sharing it with you haha)
Everything else is fine.

Only the heart intrinsically noble can succeed...
Check out My Sketchbook: Leave critiques, encouragement, and good jokes within.
Really neat stuff here. I'm afraid most of the architectural stuff is above my head, but nevertheless it's fun to look at and gets me interested in something I don't normally get exposed to. I really like the designs you've created in the middle image in post #12 (Orchid, vine, system).
Ian E:Ha i'd love to crop them, but my comp that scans is running Ubuntu and i don't even know what the photoshop / paint equivalent is (im sure it'll take all of 3 seconds to figure out, i'm being lazy) and Fish mentioned that to me the other day, wish i checked it sooner would've saved me some time on the parasitic climate zones shown in that middle pic on #12, i must be getting lazy with the line crossings, im usually pretty good about it but some of my more fragile sketches waver!! thanks for the crit
AmandaMyers:Thanks, ya i like that page also considering that particular piece of my current project was giving me some trouble up until a few hours ago when i drew it!

DH almost died! I opted for the early U/S I was having... issues connecting to this pregnancy, which seeing the HB on the screen totally connected me to this little bean!
Anyway, the tech was checking things out, my cervix, etc, she was looking at my ovaries and mentioned that it looked like I conceived from my left ovary, and showed me where the egg erupted, and talked about how that was good, and the progesterone will help keep the pregnancy until the placenta takes over, etc. Then she was checking the other ovary and said "Oh, it looks like you ovulated from both ovaries!
She quadruple checked that there was only one baby
On the way home poor DH was talking about "what if" situations, like "Can you put three carseats in the Volvo" It was cute.
I'm crunchy... Like a Dorito.
Mama to Sprout 4.09 and Bruises 7.11 handfasted to 9.07
Oh, that's funny! Wow. Hm, so you don't know if your baby is a "left ovary baby" or a "right ovary baby"!!!
As my mom likes to tease me, "one could be hiding behind the other...." Her grandma was a twin.
Congrats either way!

This product has been retired from our catalog and is no longer for sale. This page is made available for those looking for datasheets and the simply curious.
Description: Replacement:PRT-09682. This has been replaced with a new version. This page is for reference only.
Designed and built by ESawdust in Colorado, Chameleon 1 is a unique universal enclosure that supports popular development boards and RF devices from Atmel, Arduino, Olimex, ET, SparkFun and FreeWave. What makes the Chameleon so great is its universality, and its ruggedness. At only 9oz, it's surprisingly light but can withstand being thrown across a parking lot.
Chameleon 1 comes standard with face plates, stand-offs and pre-center-punched holes in the base plate that are pre-measured exactly for quickly mounting the following products:
Chameleon 1 was designed to be flexible and universal. In addition to supporting many popular development boards, Chameleon 1 also comes with one additional blank faceplate which can be drilled or machined to fit almost any Printed Circuit Board (PCB) measuring up to 6.0 inches long by 4.80 inches wide by 1.75 inches tall.
If required, additional blank face plates can be purchased as a separate item. Using a 1/8" drill-bit, as referenced by the hole guide, holes are drilled so that the ¼" standoffs can be mounted on the universal base plate. After drilling the pre-centerpunched holes (small dents that guide the drill so it doesn't skate) your board will be perfectly positioned to match the included appropriate faceplate for your board. No measuring or tweaking is required.
The hole pattern for the Olimex AVR-P28 is 80x100mm and is a very common board size. The Chameleon 1 base plate was engineered to accommodate a host of 80x100mm boards including most Olimex dev boards and the SparkFun Marsupial protoboards.
Chameleon 1 is made of a stiff, lightweight aluminum. At only 9.5 ounces (269 grams), Chameleon 1 is a ready-made, rapid-install, hard-shell enclosure for your system. Once assembled, the enclosure feels rock solid. Chameleon 1 comes standard with a powder-coated black exterior that can be used as-is or painted if desired.
Package includes:
Weight: 9.5 ounces (269 grams)
Many general purpose enclosures require the purchase of optional mounting feet to secure the enclosure to a solid surface. The Chameleon 1's lid is designed with the enclosure mounting built-in. Two hole patterns (one on each corner) provide one open and one closed mounting. The open mounting allows the enclosure to slide down over existing bolts or wing nuts (not included). The closed holes allow the enclosure to be directly mounted to a solid surface using wood or sheet metal screws (not included).
here's a tool that would come in handy for custom faceplates:
Adel nibbler. Very handy tool to own for all sorts of projects as well!
it has the same name as me :D

Sequel to the Prequel
By ANNE DONNELLI called you abut this and suggested then that you use this for a column. My son's homework involved these, so what are "coordinating conjunctions"?
- Helpful Mother
The conjunctions of last week left us hanging at a cliff's edge. We didn't discuss subordinating conjunctions, and as you passed through your week dodging swine flu injections, avoiding cars in the wrong lane going at caterpillar speed, murmuring against rain and threats of rain, clumping through Halloween candy shopping, you were left somehow incomplete, perhaps anxious. Well, that's life.
What a coincidence! The name of our ONLINE DEPARTMENT selection is "That's Life" (Thanks, C. G.) • When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him keep her. -David Bissonette • After marriage, husband and wife become two sides of a coin; they just can't face each other, but still they stay together. -Sacha Guitry • By all means marry. If you get a good wife, you'll be happy. If you get a bad one, you'll become a philosopher. –Socrates • Woman inspires us to great things, and prevents us from achieving them. –Anonymous • The great question, which I have not been able to answer is, "What does a woman want?" –Dumas • I had some words with my wife, and she had some paragraphs with me. -Sigmund Freud • Some people ask the secret of our long marriage. We take time to go to a restaurant two times a week. A little candlelight, dinner, soft music and dancing. She goes Tuesdays, I go Fridays. –Anonymous • There's a way of transferring funds that is even faster than electronic banking. It's called marriage. -Sam Kinison • I've had bad luck with both my wives. The first one left me, and the second one didn't. -James Holt McGavra • Two secrets to keep your marriage brimming 1. Whenever you're wrong, admit it, 2. Whenever you're right, shut up. -Patrick Murra • The most effective way to remember your wife's birthday is to forget it once. –Nash • You know what I did before I married? Anything I wanted to.–Anonymous • My wife and I were happy for twenty years. Then we met. -Henny Youngman • A good wife always forgives her husband when she's wrong. –Rodney Dangerfield • A man inserted an ad in the classifieds: "Wife Wanted" The next day he received a hundred letters. They all said the same thing: "You can have mine." - Anonymous • First Guy (proudly): "My wife's an angel!" Second Guy: "You're lucky, mine's still alive." –Anonymous
Subordinating conjunctions join dependent clauses (usually adverb clauses) to independent clauses. Oh, my. Can't handle this? OK, an independent clause is a group of words with a subject (sometimes understood, but definitely an influence) and a predicate together making a complete thought. This clause alone could make a sentence. Your ear can identify these without instruction. HOME INSPIRED EXAMPLE OF UNDERLINED INDEPENDENT CLAUSE IN SENTENCE WITH A DEPENDENT CLAUSE. If you don't clean up your room by tomorrow morning, I'm calling the sheriff.
In that example If you don't clean up your room is a dependent clause. Though it has a subject and predicate, it's not able to function as a sentence. You hear, "If…what?" You don't hear a complete thought.
Dependent clauses (the whole clause) function as a part of speech. We have noun dependent clauses, adverb dependent clauses, adjective dependent clauses. The clauses are doing just what the part of speech does. Noun clauses can be subjects, direct objects, predicate nominatives, objects of prepositions and others jobs done by a noun in a sentence. Adverb clause will modify a verb, another adverb, or an adjective. Adjective clauses will modify a noun or pronoun. Would you like to be on a sunny beach right now, reading nothing?
EXAMPLES OF COMMON SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS. If, because, after, since, when, while, until, unless, although, wherever, than, till, as.
EXAMPLES OF RELATIVE PRONOUN FUNCTIONING AS SUBORDINATING CONJUNCTIONS. First, a relative pronoun is a pronoun connecting a dependent clause to the rest of the sentence. Second, here's the list of examples. Who, whom, whose, which, what, that.
EXAMPLE OF SENTENCE WITH AN UNDERLINED CLAUSE INTRODUCED BY RELATIVE PRONOUN. The person whom you have accused is standing over there.
I know I'm tired; you must be exhausted. But, there's one more thing about conjunctions that should be mentioned -- beginning sentences with and or but. grammar.ccc.commnet.edu/grammar/conjunctions.htm "A frequently asked question about conjunctions is whether and or but can be used at the beginning of a sentence. This is what R.W. Burchfield has to say about this use of and: 'There is a persistent belief that it is improper to begin a sentence with And, but this prohibition has been cheerfully ignored by standard authors from Anglo-Saxon times onwards. An initial And is a useful aid to writers as the narrative continues." (from The New Fowler's Modern English Usage edited by R.W. Burchfield. Clarendon Press: Oxford, England. 1996.)
"The same is true with the conjunction but. A sentence beginning with and or but will tend to draw attention to itself and its transitional function. Writers should examine such sentences with two questions in mind: (1) would the sentence and paragraph function just as well without the initial conjunction? (2) should the sentence in question be connected to the previous sentence? If the initial conjunction still seems appropriate, use it."
I'm saying give it a rest. Enough already on the conjunctions. Happy Halloween – or is it Horrible Halloween? And, after putting you through all this, should I make sure you understand my motive by signing this column, "Love, Anne"? And, would you believe me? LOL

Listen to the band play "Fall in Line" (Suffrage March) composed by Zena S. Hawn. This tune was at the top of the program at a special tea held on February 9, 1915 to celebrate the birthdays of Susan B. Anthony and Dr. Anna Howard Shaw. My grandmother was one of about 30 women on the planning committee for the event at the Hotel Biltmore in New York City. I used the 1915 program as a guide for planning a Susan B. Anthony party in Santa Fe during February. Birthday parties and elegant teas in honor of suffrage leaders were common during the women's suffrage movement, and we're falling in line by carrying on the tradition. Celebrate Women's History Month by having a party with your friends and organization. A teapot, some tea and cookies. That's all it takes. If you're looking for a program, rent "Not For Ourselves Alone" which is about Susan B. Anthony and Elizabeth Cady Stanton. It's also available on Netflix instant play. Screen it in advance. Roll out the tea and sweets and have a great time!

Best Boats 2012 Winner: The BayRaider 20
It may look like a character boat with its saucy sheer, ketch rig and sliding gunter mainsail, but the BayRaider 20 is no museum piece. Built in your choice of fiberglass or cold-molded wood by UK-based SwallowBoats, the BayRaider features a sophisticated gravity-fed water ballast system, a NACA foil centerboard and a semi-planing hull form. The result is a daysailer with surprising performance that can also serve as a stable platform for camp cruising. (The boat's named is derived from the tradition of the British "raid," a competitive cruise in company from port to port in small open boats.)
In many ways, it's the little things that set the BayRaider 20 apart. The tiller has a hinged dog-leg to raise it up so it doesn't hit the crew in the knees. All control lines—jibsheets, mainsheet, mizzensheet—are within easy reach of the helm, and the hull has not only an attractive wooden rubrail and sheer strake, but also skids on its bottom for beaching. The wooden mainmast is stepped on a tabernacle, and the tall gunter sprit is carbon fiber. The kick-up rudder has a notch in its trailing edge that confused us at first, until a company rep explained it was a step to help crew climb back aboard after going for a swim. The list goes on and on.
An impressive 660 pounds of water ballast can be taken on or dumped while underway. This means the boat's performance can be fine-tuned depending on sailing conditions. Is the wind picking up and your neophyte crew getting nervous? No problem, just make the boat heavier. Is the wind going light or do you want to surf the chop? Again, no problem. The boat is easily trailerable and takes just minutes to rig and launch, which means you can explore distant bodies of water without having to budget a lot of time for setup before and after exploring. swallowboats.co.uk

Jackson, Kid Rock head SeaWorld lineup
Published: Thursday, January 30, 2014 at 7:22 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 30, 2014 at 7:22 a.m.
ORLANDO, Fla. — The show is going on.
SeaWorld Orlando on Wednesday announced performers Alan Jackson and Kid Rock will headline a concert series in which nine other performers dropped out following the release of a documentary critical of the marine park.
Jackson will perform this upcoming weekend at the Bands, Brew & BBQ concert series, followed by Kid Rock the next weekend. Other performers haven't been announced.
Nine recording artists had backed out of performing at the SeaWorld Orlando concert series, including country singers Trace Adkins, Martina McBride, Trisha Yearwood, as well as rock performers Heart, 38 Special and Barenaked Ladies. They made their decision after fans launched campaigns on Change.org citing the documentary "Blackfish."
"Blackfish" explores what may have caused an orca to kill veteran SeaWorld trainer Dawn Brancheau in 2010.

Tuesday's Christmas ad is for Rheingold Beer, from 1943. In the ad, a woman has apparently just hung the wreath, and to hammer home the point she's still holding it in her hand. It's impressive how she managed to hang it in the exact spot so the tagline — The Season's Greeting — is centered inside the wreath.
Ice Plus Beer
I tend to view the concept of ice plus beer with horror, but apparently in Japan it's "so cool." That's at least the opinion of Kirin, whose uncharacteristically low-tech commercial make the case for its coolness. The verdict? The ad: pretty cool. Ice plus beer: not cool.

It was hard to choose just five of Dick's answers for the magazine, so I'm putting all of them here. You can read even more about Dick's peripatetic life from his RV blog.
Q. How long have you wanted to tour the country in an RV?
A. More or less forever. I don't remember when the idea first occurred to me, although I know it was many years ago. I have traveled extensively for business and for personal vacations most of my life. The "vagabond lifestyle" appeals to me. Now, for the first time, I am a homeless person and am enjoying it.
Q. Are RVs hard to drive?
A. Not really. Physically, motor homes are very easy to drive. They have automatic transmissions, power steering, and power brakes. The physical effort involved is about the same as driving an automobile.
However, the driver does have to remember that the motor home is wider and taller than an automobile and it doesn't stop as quickly. In other words, it doesn't stop on a dime. Anyone driving a motor home soon learns to leave a lot of space between the motor home and the vehicle in front of them. You also have to keep an eye open for low bridges and overpasses.
Q. Where are you most looking forward to visiting in the RV?
A. Anyplace I have never visited before. While I have been fortunate enough to visit many well-known tourist attractions, I have missed hundreds of smaller "gems" and I hope to change that. I want to go to the balloon festival in Albuquerque, the huge airshow in Oshkosh, Wis., and drive the winding road in Deals Gap, NC and Tenn., which is supposedly the most winding road in North America, an attraction for anyone who owns sports cars. It has 318 curves in 11 miles. I hope to drive it in a sports car, not in the motor home. (I tow a car behind the motor home.)
Q. If 1 is someone who wakes up in the morning and decides on a whim where he'll park the RV that night, and 10 is someone who plans out every detail of his itinerary months in advance, what number are you?
A. Probably a 2 or 3. I deliberately do not plan very much. I prefer to be surprised. Occasionally, it backfires, but most of the time it works well.
Q. Have you ever gotten lost in the RV? (While driving it, not inside it.)
A. No. Never. Of course, I do carry four GPSs, a road atlas, a thick book of all campgrounds in the United States, a cell phone, and two two-way radios. It is difficult to be lost.
Q. What do you consider the most essential item for the RV-ing genealogist to possess?
A. Patience. The second most important thing is a good toolkit: pliers, screwdrivers, and things like that. Unlike your home, everything in a motor home shakes when you are driving down the road. The appliances in a motor home suffer a lot more vibration than home appliances will ever encounter. Wires under the dash shake loose, pictures fall off the wall (I had this happen), and other strange things happen. I am almost always performing some minor repair of an unforeseen problem.
Q. If you had to pick, which one of these bumper stickers would you put on your RV?: "This is how I roll" or "Genealogy is TREE-rific!"?
A. Genealogy is TREE-rific!
Q. If you could choose anyone from history as your RV copilot, who would it be?
A. OK, I have to give you two answers: Lewis and Clark. Those two adventurers set off to see things they had never seen before.
I would give honorable mention to several Arctic and Antarctic explorers, except that they spent much of their time in very cold weather. I have already done that. I was born in Maine, lived in northern Vermont, lived in northern New Hampshire, and spent two winters in the Canadian subarctic amongst the Eskimos in in Labrador. I've seen my share of cold weather! Now I am seeking sunshine.

Jimmy Kimmel Wipes the Floor With Jay Leno's Giant Chin (VIDEO)
Wow; guess Jimmy Kimmel's Jay Leno impression was just the first volley in the latest battle of the Late-Night Wars. Leno bravely (foolishly?) had the Jimmy Kimmel Live! host on his "[email protected]″ segment last night, and Kimmel took the the appearance as an opportunity to verbally eviscerate Jay, using every answer to skewer Leno for essentially ousting Conan O'Brien from his Tonight Show hosting gig.
Sample reply:
"The best prank I ever pulled was I told a guy that—five years from now—I'm gonna give you my show. And then when the five years came, I gave it to him, and then I took it back almost instantly."
Awwwwwwwkwaaaaard! And it just got messier from there.
Good-natured ribbing or the genuine vitriol of a man who's solidly on Team Coco? Check out the video below and render your verdict in the comments section!

The American Zionist Movement is feeling squeezed in the wake of the World Zionist Organization's decision to impose massive cuts on its budget.
Seymour Reich, AZM chairman, an umbrella for Zionist organizations, has charged that the disproportionate cut "was aimed to cripple us because of our position supporting the government's peace process."
Under Reich's leadership, the organization has been outspoken in its support of the Israeli government's peace policies.
Other American Zionists have speculated that the cuts were targeted at them not because of their politics, but because they believe that a planned restructuring of the World Zionist Organization and the Jewish Agency for Israel may reduce the role of Zionists in the Diaspora.
But top WZO officials say the cuts announced last month reflect fiscal necessity.
These cuts slash AZM's budget by $250,000, or half of the AZM's annual allocation from Jerusalem.
The cuts were part of a total package of $1.7 million in cuts instituted to balance the WZO's budget.
The Jewish Agency for Israel is implementing $30 million in cuts of its own, largely in responses to fewer dollars coming from American Jewish federations, according to Agency officials.
The Jewish Agency is the principal recipient of money raised for Israel by the United Jewish Appeal. The WZO, whose members are elected on party lines by members of Zionist organizations, is the Jewish Agency's sister organization.
The WZO, with a total budget of only $30 million, has also moved to eliminate a planned "Zionist fulfillment" program, designed to promote aliyah from the United States and other Western countries.
All other WZO programs received across the board cuts of between 7 percent and 10 percent.
Supporting his charge that the cuts were politically motivated, Reich said Hanan Ben-Yehuda, treasurer of the WZO and a Likud representative to the organization, had protested AZM's political stands.
"We think Zionist federations should not just involve themselves in Yom Ha'atzmaut celebrations and Zionist song contests," said Reich.
Some American Zionist groups affiliated with the Israeli opposition parties have withdrawn from the umbrella Zionist group to pretest its political role.
But Ben-Yehuda denied that the budget cuts were politically motivated.
"The reduction in the budget that the World Zionist Organization can provide to the American Zionist Movement resulted wholly from the serious financial constraints of the Jewish Agency and WZO," he said in Jerusalem.
Ben-Yehuda said the cuts to AZM were one of many painful decisions in the budgetary process.
WZO Acting Chairman Avraham Burg also responded to Reich's charges.
"As one fully committed to depoliticizing the national institutions in order to preserve and enhance the unity of the Jewish people, I will never lend a hand to politicizing the organization by providing or reducing financial support.
"The cuts were painful in the past and will continue in the future," he said, adding, "But they are the only way to foster a rebirth of the Zionist idea."
After protests from the American Zionists, Burg told the AZM that they could appeal the cuts to the committee that makes the final decision, according to officials involved.
But sources close to the WZO said they expect few changes to be made in the announced cuts.
Ben-Yehuda said AZM's initial grant was given with the understanding that the organization would eventually develop other sources of additional funding, but it failed to do so.
But AZM's executive director, Karen Rubinstein, said, "There are a lot of American dollars that are driving our activities."
AZM officials would not disclose the group's overall budget, but said it collects dues from its 21 constituent Zionist organizations and has begun a fund-raising campaign.
"We see ourselves moving into a situation where we are much more financially independent," she said.
But to have "a four-year plan, a five-year plan and to be suddenly told it's over — the timing of that is off. We didn't expect this to happen at this time," she said.
In the midst of the budget cuts, some American Jews affiliated with the Zionist movement speculated that the cuts could be part of a general move to restructure the WZO. Burg has said he favors merging the WZO into the Jewish Agency.
Some fear that the proposals on the table for such a move could drastically take away power from Diaspora Zionists, who currently make up a majority of the WZO representation and more than a quarter of the Jewish Agency governing bodies.
Not surprisingly, the AZM has opposed the thrust of this restructuring, calling instead for the WZO to shift power to the Diaspora Zionist bodies.
"The WZO has written off American Zionism and Zionism in the Diaspora," said Reich.
"It does make sense," said another American Zionist, speaking on condition of anonymity, "that if the American Zionists are causing problems in the quest for radical reform that the WZO would be saying, `don't lost sight of who has the power.'"
But Burg denied any such motives behind the cuts.
"If there is one thing I won't do, it is to base any of my arguments on money," Burg said.
"Money does not buy power; the lack of money does not render weakness."
Although he would not go into details about his restructuring plans for the Agency and WZO, Burg said he supports the creation of a "fully democratic" body that is "50 percent Israeli and 50 percent Diaspora Jewry."

Motion tracking (the ability to follow the location of an object in a piece of footage, and use this information to stabilize that shot or animate other layers) and color keying (the ability to make a green- or blue-screen background transparent so that you can replace it with a new image) are two essential visual-effects tasks you need to learn if you want to take your After Effects skills to the next level.
In After Effects Apprentice 12: Tracking and Keying, Chris Meyer covers tracking and keying basic and essential skills including a quick tour of mocha, the third-party tracking software that is bundled with After Effects, and an introduction to The Foundry's KEYLIGHT, an Academy Award-winning keying effect that is also built into After Effects.
Throughout the course, Chris shows you how to use the motion tracker and stabilizer built into After Effects, and offers advice on how to handle a variety of shot scenarios. He also discusses how to use tracking and keying to track a greenscreen shot with a handheld camera and replace its background.
While practice is the secret to mastering your tracking and keying skills, getting to look over someone else's shoulder as they perform these tasks is a great way to jump-start your learning curve.

For two years I have been asking myself if I can take on the daily duties that accompany the adoption of another yellow Labrador retriever to replace the dog I lost in 2009.
My ambivalence about committing to daily dog walks, vet visits and the like seemed pretty selfish after interviewing several local "mompreneurs" for a Mother's Day column.
For a guy who believes "sacrifice" means cleaning up the dishes, I feel like an idiot after hearing the sacrifices these women make every day.
Take Liz Corah, the entrepreneur/owner of a successful dance and exercise business called Studio 310 in Rockville.
She's 28, divorced, raising three kids younger than 8, and frequently works 12-hour weekdays and half the weekend. She also owns her own townhouse, drives a sport-utility vehicle and makes a six-figure income.
Corah has been on her own since 15.
Corah, whom I plan to write more about in the future, worked four jobs and saved $40,000 one year so she could rent space and establish 310, which was founded in 2007. Back in those early days, she spent $500 a week in child care for her two daughters (her son came later), not counting the babysitters she paid at night so she could run to teach evening dance classes.
"When I tell you I worked my tail off, I worked my tail off," she said. "I started the day at 7 and was not done until 9 or 10 p.m. I never saw my two daughters."
But, she adds, "I am doing exactly what I was meant to do."
Corah took the long view, sacrificing the social life and everything else that goes with your 20s in order to establish security for herself and her children, and gain more time with her family.
"I think you get your 20s or your 40s," she said. "And when I am in my 40s, my kids will all be out of the house, and I will be more financially secure and smarter and wise. Having children and being a mom makes me a better and stronger person."
Jamie Ratner, 33, mother of two children, ages 2 and 3, and founder of Certifikid, an online coupon business catering to family activities, loves the freedom of owning her own business. But she just can't get enough sleep.
"I feel like I want to be the best business and give the best service, and I want to be the best mom," said the Bethesda mompreneur, who resigned her manager position at the District's Williams & Connolly law firm in 2010 as her start-up took off. Her husband is a partner at another firm.
"I have been able to balance the two and specify certain days for kids and certain days for business," Ratner said. "Because it's my own business, I can make my own schedule," which can include pushing a stroller, conducting a business call and jogging all at once.
"The lack of sleep is the hardest part. The kids are up by 5:30. When I put my daughter down for a nap, I do as much work as I can. Sometimes I play hide-and-seek with my kids, and I hide in a good spot so I can write a business e-mail on my BlackBerry. You have to be creative as a mom. Anytime a child is sleeping, I am doing work. "
And making money. Certifikid is grossing up to $100,000 a month.
There's Karen McElaney of Centreville, a co-founder of four-year-old CleverWraps, which makes see-through covers to protect electronic devices such as cellphones, e-readers and iPads.
"I have to make all sorts of compromises," said McElaney, 51, who is married and quit a marketing job in her mid-20s to take care of her newborn son.
McElaney now has two boys, ages 21 and 18, and spends 12 hours a day on her business. She travels from two to five days, every few months.
She gave up greeting her sons as teenagers when they came home from school. She gave up attending sporting events such as basketball, football and lacrosse games. She couldn't drive one son to the University of Georgia for a visit because work beckoned.
"After being a stay-at-home mom for so many years and having so much control over my time and dedicating myself to my kids," she said, "it was a shock to me when the business began to take over my life."
I asked Kathy Korman Frey, founder of the Hot Mommas Project and entrepreneur-in-residence at George Washington University's School of Business, to make sense of this for me.
Frey, 39, married and the mother of two kids, has some business chops herself. She graduated from Harvard Business School and started a successful Washington consulting firm called Vision Forward. She eventually migrated to the academic sector, founding Hot Mommas as a way to promote dynamic women through online case studies. (Corah is one of Frey's Hot Mommas.)
"These folks are pretty much the spitting image of most of the women who come to our Hot Mommas seminars," Frey said. "They are overachievers who can do it all — and do."
I'll say. I have been in a dialogue of sorts with McElaney and Ratner for weeks, and both are very persistent, to say the least.
Frey commended Ratner and McElaney for their balancing acts. She also pointed out that Corah didn't have a choice but to pursue her business because she was divorced.
"Having a life partner or spouse allows women to pursue a non-linear career path, which is the idea that you may have an offramp to your career at one time and an on-ramp at another time," Frey said.
She said her life as a mom, wife, business owner and teacher "is much better than anything I imagined. I was dragged kicking and screaming to do it, but now, I feel quite victorious. I work faster, smarter, better, happier. What's not to like?"
And now I have to go see about a Lab puppy.

McCully: Not just a New Zealand tragedy
Hon Murray McCully
Minister of Foreign Affairs
24 February 2011
McCully: Not just a New Zealand tragedy
Foreign Minister Murray McCully confirmed that New Zealand has grave fears that foreign nationals may be among the fatalities from Christchurch's devastating earthquake.
One of the most damaged buildings is the CTV building which housed a private language school for foreign students called Kings Education, a regional television station and a nursing school and other businesses.
"The Minister of Tertiary Education, Hon Steven Joyce has today spoken with the Director of Kings Education John Ryder to offer any support the government can give.
"This is not just New Zealand's tragedy it is an international tragedy that is touching the lives of thousands around the world.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has a number of staff working in Christchurch and in Wellington liaising with embassies and consulates, foreign emergency crews, and with Police.
"Today, foreign consular staff in Christchurch received briefings from Police and were taken inside the cordon around the central business district to view the scale of destruction.
"There will be a long and difficult wait for families and friends around the world. I know the thoughts of all New Zealanders are with these families, and the Government will do everything it can to assist as they wait for news of their loved ones," says Mr McCully.

|Wildcats remain only unbeaten team in Dixie state tourney
|From Staff Reports
July 13, 2005 - PITTSBURG - The Sulphur Springs Wildcats would be in the driver's seat of the Dixie State Baseball Tournament - if they were old enough to drive.
As it is, the local 7-8-year olds are the only remaining unbeaten team as they enter the tournament semifinals tonight.
The Wildcats beat Grand Prairie, 7-3, on Tuesday to improve their record to 3-0 in the 12-team tournament. They are scheduled to play again at 7:30 p.m. today at Barnwell Field in Pittsburg against Mount Pleasant.
Mount Pleasant and the two teams who face each other in the 6 p.m. elimination game, Grand Prairie and Broken Bow, all have one loss each. Whoever loses the early game will be eliminated from the tournament.
If Sulphur Springs wins, then Mount Pleasant will also be eliminated, sending the Wildcats into the championship game tomorrow evening. A loss by Sulphur Springs would set up a three-team playoff for the state title.
Against Grand Prairie, the Wildcats scored all their runs in the first two innings, then finished the game with some key defensive plays.
Sulphur Springs scored three times in the first inning as Cain Cody singled and Kade Hudgins doubled with one out. Aaron Smith then knocked in both runners with a single, and Larry Pryor Jr. brought in Smith with an RBI single.
Then, in the second, Tyler Williams and Ben Brooks opened the inning with back-to-back singles and Landon Brock hit an RBI double to make the score 4-0. Cody then plated two more runs with a single, and Hudgins rounded out the scoring with another RBI single to bring the tally to 7-0.
Second baseman C.J. Stephens made a pair of catches at second base to bail the Wildcats out of potential trouble, said coach Robert Cody.
Stephens made a diving catch of a line drive for the third out of the first inning. Then in the fourth, with two on and one out, Grand Prairie's clean-up hitter smashed a line drive between first and second that Stephens left his feet to catch. He then threw from his knees to Cody at first base to double off the runner and end the inning.
