System restore points saved to recovery partition, possible damage?
I have done a good bit of searching around the internet about system protection monitoring on recovery partitions.
It seems that by default system protection was turned on for the recovery partition of my laptop and many restore points have been saved to the recovery partition. I only realised when I was defragging my system hard drive that I noticed my recovery partition was 2% fragmented, which is odd seeing as it is never meant to be edited. I have never seen it fragmented previously. Since noticing this I turned off system protection for the recovery partition and removed the restore points from the system protection menu. I am assuming that the 2% fragmentation as caused by the saving of restore points to the recovery partition.
My question is that is the act of saving system restore points to the recovery partition going to cause any damage to the recovery partition itself or its functioning? Also if it is possible, would there be any advantage of defragging the recovery partition?
Thanks in advance to anyone who answers!

The only way that system recovery points would be on the recovery drive is if the drive was used for other purposes. Windows will not do this otherwise. Your policy towards the recovery partition should be a strict hands off. No modifications of it in any way. certainly not a defrag.

I also thought that there as no way to alter the contents of the recovery partition but according to the system protection menu, 3.47 GB of restore points were in use on that recovery partition before I turned it off.
What would your assessment be on the chances of this damaging or altering the recovery partition?

Is this an OEM machine? The only way I can see that happening is that you changed the restore point options to include the drive. There shouldn't be restore points on a Recovery Partition. It IS the restore point for the factory install. That partition should be locked from your access and only available using the OEM recovery disc. (That you should have created right after you bought the PC.) Restore points on the Recovery Partition is wasted space.
It's best not to change system settings you don't understand.

Its a Dell laptop. Just did a fresh recovery using the recovery partition and while I was setting everything up I noticed system protection was enabled and saving restore points to the partition. In this case no recovery disc is needed, there is a tool installed by Dell that runs the recovery partition if a recovery is needed. Also the partition is locked from my access, which is weird how windows can save 3.47 gig of restore points to it.
Back to my original question, I know it is wasted space but... is the act of saving system restore points to the recovery partition going to cause any damage to the recovery partition itself or its functioning?
I am not going to continue to save them to the drive, I am working if what has happened has altered the recovery partition in any way. Thanks

It didn't hurt anything. It just made it larger. The restore points are compacted images of system files.
Is there a backup procedure for the Recovery Partition? What if the partition or disk goes belly up? Does Dell provide a disc to restore the partition?

Good, I was worried in case the restore point files may have done something to the recovery partition. So we are sure it wouldn't have touched any of the files? How could it write the files to the partition if it has no drive letter though? I'm a little confused. Yes they do supply operating system and driver discs just in case the partition fails. Hopefully it never does. Thanks for your responses

Where are system restore points saved?
I want to save a system restore point to disc, but it seems to only let me save the most recent one, whereas I want to save the oldest one to disc. Where is it located on my hard drive, and can I manually send it to a disc or flash drive if I can find it? Thank you for your help!

I became in love with açai bowls since I found a great smoothie place around my town. They have the best smoothies and vegan goods around here and the hubs and I love to go on the weekends! But to be honest it is pretty expensive and sometimes we like to make our own and experiment with different flavors. This is my favorite recipe and it is as good (or maybe even better ) than the smoothie place around town.
I don't always add the same toppings, but for the most part, this recipe combination is the best in my opinion. The thickest, the better for me and I like making it in my Kitchen Aid food processor because it just combines all the ingredients beautifully. Make it your own by adding what you like and enjoy the frozen goodness! This is the perfect recipe to make in the warmer days, but I enjoy it all year around. Careful with the brain freeze thought! lol!
Cocoa Açai Bowl
- 1 pack frozen açai puree (I use the one from Trader Joe's)
- 1 frozen banana
- mix of berries
- 1 tsp maca powder
- 1 tsp cacao powder
- 2 dates for sweetness
- a splash of cashew milk (you can use almond or any kind)
Add all the ingredients to your blender or food processor and mix until combined. Add your favorite toppings. I used cacao nibs, raw sunflower seeds, fresh coconut shavings, fresh berries.
And now for the fun part of this post….

My friend and I will be visiting Montreal for Easter weekend and I was wondering what our best Sunday brunch options would be. Is there anything special happening we should keep an eye out for?
From reading messages here, it looks like Reservoir or The Sparrow might be the best options? Or if we decide to go for a buffet, maybe Vieux Port? How about the hotels - do any of them serve particularly good or interesting brunches?

By Danny Picard
FOXBORO -- All season long, the Patriots said it themselves. They fully acknowledged, and at times accepted, the fact that they "bend but don't break."
Trouble was, on Sunday all that bending wasn't good enough.
At first glance, it's hard to fault the defense for Sunday's 28-21 loss. Two of the Jets' touchdowns came on short fields -- a 37-yard drive late in the second quarter after a botched fake punt by the Patriots, a 20-yard drive late in the game after a failed onside kick -- and a third was only for 49 yards as the Jets won the first-half battle for field position. Just one drive, a 75-yarder in the fourth quarter, could be pinned on the defense.
But that sort of bending wasn't what the Pats needed Sunday. There were times -- particularly on the 75-yard drive, which came after New England had scored to cut New York's lead to 14-11 and swung momentum back in its favor -- when they needed stops.
And they couldn't get them.
"They just came out and played more physical than we did," said Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo. "They were able to establish the run. They were getting four yards, three yards, four yards, four yards, and we just could never get on track.
"I think the coaches did a good job getting us prepared and getting us ready for the game. We just didn't go out and execute."
Like New England's offense, it all came down to a lack of execution on the defensive end.
After the Patriots' most successful offensive drive of the day -- an eight-play, 85-yard touchdown drive that cut New York's lead to 14-11 with 13 seconds left to play in the third quarter -- it was of the utmost importance that Bill Belichick's defense step up and get the ball right back in Tom Brady's hands.
The Jets responded with a five-play, 75-yard drive that resulted in a Santonio Holmes seven-yard touchdown reception in the back-left corner of the end zone, giving New York a 21-11 lead in the opening minutes of the fourth quarter.
It was a drive that saw the Patriots' defense bend a little too much on the second play of the drive, when Mark Sanchez found Jerricho Cotchery streaking over the middle from the left side of the field, for a huge 58-yard play that moved the chains down to New England's 13-yard line, setting up for the dagger.
"We knew we had to answer," said Cotchery. "We had to answer on that drive. On that play, Mark Sanchez and I were on the same page, and it just blew open. I stayed on the move. He expected me to stay on the move, and after that, I was just trying to make a play, and the guys did a great job of rallying around me to try and get me to the end zone. It ended up setting us up with seven points, and that was what we were looking for."
"I don't feel like they had us off-balanced, they just made some key plays," said Patriots safety James Sanders. "We were in a position to make plays at times. We didn't make the plays, and they did. They did what they had to do to come away with the victory."

She's a contributor to the books The Church and New Media and Atheist to Catholic: 11 Stories of Conversion, and is writing a book based on her personal blog, ConversionDiary.com. She and her husband live in Austin, TX with their five young children, and were featured in the nationally televised reality show Minor Revisions. You can follow her on Twitter at @conversiondiary.
Last week I came across a blog debate about moms who work. I can't find the link now (I think it was one of the countless discussions that erupted after Hilary Rosen's now-infamous comment), but you can imagine how it went: A blogger made the statement that mothers need to stay home with young children, working moms took offense, and combox insanity ensued. I've been following debates like this for years, but as I scanned through this one, I noticed that something felt different. At first I couldn't put my finger on what it was, but then I realized:
The whole discussion seemed outdated.
And I don't think I was the only one who sensed that. Even the most vocal, caps-lock-using anonymous commenters didn't display the same amount of scorn for their fellow moms that you would have seen even three years ago. People hardly seemed to mean it when they said "UR NEGLECTING UR KIDZ," and the finger-pointing at other mothers' lifestyle choices seemed to lack energy or sincere conviction. When I thought about it, it realized that there's been a decline in the intensity and frequency of these kind of debates in recent years. And now I'm starting to think that five, certainly ten, years from now, we'll hardly be having them at all.
As Simcha Fisher recently pointed out, it's impossible to put mothers into neat categories that perfectly encapsulate what "type" of parents they are. This has always been the case, but I think that that statement it is getting more and more true by the day when it comes to the labels of "working mom" vs. "stay-at-home mom." With the popularity of telecommuting, many working moms end up spending most of their time at home; whereas many stay-at-home moms now have online stores or websites that bring in some extra income, or they might do occasional freelance work from home in fields where they have career experience. With all the options we have in terms of where we live, what kind of homes we live in, what kind of cars we drive, etc., even the lines between moms who work because they "want to" and those who work because they "have to" have become fuzzy.
This isn't to say that it doesn't matter at all what choices moms make with their lifestyles; it is certainly possible to take selfish actions that could deeply wound your kids. But it's like the debates about what constitutes grave and serious reasons for avoiding pregnancy: while there are moral absolutes in this area, it's almost always impossible to tell if others are violating them. We just can't know those kinds of things from observing someone else's life -- and this is especially true when it comes to modern mothers and their work.
I think that if we could fast forward ten years and ask a young woman what she thinks of working moms, she'd be confused by the question. Is a "working mom" someone like her friend Jane, who has a full-time job but works mostly out of her house? Or is a working mom someone like Jill, who works in an office but has a flexible schedule that allows her to be home a lot? What about Sally, who has an online store that requires that she puts in eighty hours one week, then none for the rest of the month? Or Jessica, who teaches at a homeschool co-op but doesn't receive a paycheck? I think that this woman of the future would find that she ultimately doesn't know how to answer the question, "What do you think of working moms?", because she simply doesn't see that as being a clear, definable category of parenthood in the first place.
I suppose there will always be something for parents to argue about, and the "mommy wars" may continue to erupt about other areas of motherhood. But thanks to all the ways that new technology has blurred the lines between those who have jobs and those who don't, I think that the working moms vs. stay-at-home moms debates have finally become passé.
Judging another mom for working or not working? That's sooooo 1990s.
Totally agree, Michelle. Having read historical biographies such as Little House on the Prairie, Caddie Woodlawn, The Great Brain, All of a Kind Family, etc during my childhood, my impression is that many fathers were very involved in the family in the 1800s and early 1900s. This is also consistent with how my mother and grandmother (born in 1912) have described their fathers' roles in their families. As far as improvements in childbirth, historically babies were usually delivered by female midwives. Once the venue switched to the hospitals, reforms by men such as Lamaze and Bradley have helped hospital births return to more natural formats in which the husbands are involved.
Sorry, Deirdre, I meant the commenter "on other people's choices" was stereotyping, not you!
Claire, I agree. There is nothing wrong with what the pope said, and it does still apply to our time. I made a comment on this same post the other day saying that my own family was considering a job change for my husband that would involve the whole family. We would start a family busisness which my husband would run. The children and I will help with it. My husbands main role will still be to provide for the necessities of his family, my main role will still be to care for the family. I think Dierdre is falling into modern stereotyping with the roles the pope quotes. Also, just because someone's grandparents say that their husband didn't help out, etc. doesn't mean that's how it was everywhere! For the most part Men were present to their families far more in the past then they are now…I would classify the past for this discussion as pre-industrial revolution. I heard someone (I can't remember who right now) say that the industrial revolution took men from the home and the feminist revolution took women from the home. We need to get both back in the home. Look to the Holy Family for the best example! Also, look into distributism, a very Catholic economic philosophy that aids in allowing these natural roles the pope speaks of to be fulfilled.
I'm not distressed. And yes, I did agree with most of your comment. I just don't think he said anything wrong. I still can't understand what is so wrong with saying that men should make sure the necessities of life are provided ; that statement doesn't mean that they can't be involved with their kids. And saying that women should educate their children doesn't mean they can't do anything else. Of course I'm glad that times have changed since the 1800s (although I'm not happy that it has changed to the point where now it is often necessary to have a dual-income household, because this ends up limiting women's choices rather than expanding them). But I still don't think that pope said anything wrong. I would have no problem with someone making those exact same statements today. It would be another story if they said that women should only focus on things of the home. That I would have a problem with.
Thanks Dierdre for your experience. In talking with many generations of my family I found that fathers were not involved in the care of children. None of them went to war or had PTSD but that is a good point to make. I'm sure it is true for many.
I have never read any historical information that says men helped run the household or care for children in the 1800's. They had to work so ahrd just to meet the basic needs of the family so I doubt it would have been possible. So that would not have even been on Pope Leo's mind—it was a different time and society. Men were not present for births in the 1800's—women did everything. Same with my husbands side of the family going back for a LONG time—dads did not father like dads do today. That is just the way it was and I am happy to be part of this generation. Pope Leo was speaking on what he knew then. Maybe by the 1930's men were more involved in some families. In general, Popes warned against women working outside the home. again while there can be an imbalance women make up the back bone of many vital professions in our society.
Claire, everyone else posts their opinions too. I'm sorry mine has caused you so much distress. Clearly we have grown in our understanding of the role of men and women. IMO what Pope Leo expressed was for that time. That is all I was saying. Pope Leo said nothing about fathers caring for children or educating them. Keep in mind we all read with our own experiences and opinions interjected. I thought I expressed alot of positive things that you did not hear.
Also, there were situations in the 1900s where women contributed to the family finances. Farmer's wives, for example.
OPC- Actually, from talking to older family members, I learned that dads were VERY involved with their kids in the 1930s and before (Little house books show this too). The stereotype of 'Dad who goes out drinking after work and then is really distant' comes from the 1950s. I've seen some psychologists argue that's because most dads of the 50s were actually suffering from PTSD—the war took a huge toll on men of that generation, which made it hard for them to be present to their families. I have high hopes that the ability to telecommute and run businesses from home will bring about a return to the "St. Joe in his workshop" mode of being a dad—home AND working to support the kids.
His quote said nothing about fathers not being around for the birth of their babies. That might not have been the norm at the time, but his quote had nothing to do with it. Saying that fathers should make sure that the necessities of life are provided for their families does not mean that they shouldn't spend time with their families. Again, while that might have been the norm at that time, that had nothing to do with his quote. Father should make sure their families needs are met. Mothers should see to the wellbeing and education of their children. That doesn't have to mean that fathers can't stay home, and it doesn't have to mean that mothers can't work. A working mother should still be very involved in her family's/home's wellbeing and the education of the children (whether they go to school or not), and a father who is home should still be making sure that his children are provided with the necessities of life. A lot of popes have done and said a lot of stupid things over the years. But to pick apart a quote like this? I don't get it. And, by the way, I didn't say you were un-Catholic. What I was getting at is that there are enough non-Catholics who pick apart and read things into statements by Catholics. We as Catholics don't need to join them. But unfortunately, it seems that there are some Catholics who jump at the chance, every chance they get.
"Pope Leo XIII declared it "a most sacred law of nature that the father of a family see that his offspring are provided with all the necessities of life." For their part, mothers were "intended by nature for the work of the home [...] the education of children and the well-being of the family."
Historically way back then fathers were not deeply involved in their children's lives. Fathers worked outside the home and mothers cared for children. I am grateful that in today's world dads are (or can be…)very involved in home making and caring for children and mothers can also provide for the financial well being of the home. My father and grandfather could not be present for the birth of their children. We have progressed and it is good that dads spend time with their kids. The way my grandparents grew up this was not the case. Mothers and fathers are both capable of caring for the home and educating children as they are contributing to the financial success of it. How this plays out in each family with be different.
From my perspective the quote was dated and I'm sorry you find that opinion not Catholic. It is very Catholic for dads to be involed in the education and well being of their family as well as providing for financial needs. The Pope's quote above IMO provided clearly defined roles for men and women and that is why I was critical of it. I'm grateful that my husband was there for me when I needed him in the middle of the night caring for my babies and he is grateful for the financial help I provide to our family. Times were very different back in the 1800's.
What's wrong with the quote from Pope Leo? What's wrong with saying that mothers are intended by nature to see to the well being of the home and family and education of children? He didn't necessarily say that's all they're supposed to do. But aren't mothers who work fulltime outside the home still involved in the work of the home (educating children, seeing to the well-being of the family)? I can't believe that anyone would be offended by that quote, and I certainly hope that we haven't "progressed" from that mindset. Nothing like coming to a Catholic website to find Catholics who criticize perfectly good papal quotes…
I don't think it is about, "I'm okay, your okay." It is about each couple discerning prayerfully what they need to do to support their family taking ALL things into consideration.
I'm thankful we have progressed from the mindset of the Pope quoted up there in 1891. (whew!)
I recognize that women form the backbone of many professions like teaching and nursing. I am so thankful for the women physicians and midwifes that helped to deliver my children. I believe the growth of women delivering babies has changed the whole experience dramatically for the good in the last 30-40yrs.
I'm grateful to know women who work inside or outside the home for pay and those who don't. I see how much they care for their kids and their marriage.
It is ok to challenge each other but ultimately we are not the ones who has the last judgment.
Aren't all Moms working Moms? Some have two jobs(raising husband and raising kids). Some have more by having a job that pays in money on top of the other two.
Thank you for such a well expressed post. I agree everything you said one thousand per cent.
There has been a lot of sophistry among Female Catholic bloggers lately. Its disappointing.
Mature Catholic women and mothers should be able to have a discussion about the appropriateness of professional employment outside the home when raising small children. Making reference to such discussion as "Mommy Wars" seems to me a tactic to silence the discussion so nobody's feelings get hurt. That there is now the opportunity for telecommuting, and other work from home opportunities, does not dispense with the need for important and nuanced discussions regarding the vocation of motherhood and its compatibility or incompatibility with professional employment, or even demanding apostolate involvement.
Of course, there is no one-size-fits-all, but we should be able to make comments like: "It is important for mothers of small children to be at home to raise them," without being accused of being judgmental or small minded. It should be presumed that women advocating such a position fully understand that are making an objective, not a subjective judgment, and that they understand there are situations where women must work outside the home for financial reasons and employment situations that allow women to be present in the home for their children.
What I am tired of is the constant advocating of "I'm okay, you're okay" and "let's not make objective statements about hypothetical situations lest someone feel judged or we not be sensitive to the fact that everybody's situation is different" that has been coming from the Catholic women bloggers. We don't want Catholic sisters to be at each others' throats, and we don't want to be judgmental, but the discussion regarding motherhood and professional employment is one that must continue. Letting ourselves think of this discussion as "Mommy Wars," even if its to say we shouldn't be having them, only fosters alienation and incivility.
This is precisely how I feel when at the Dr.'s office they ask what type of work I do or if I'm unemployed. How does one answer that when I stay home with 10 children? I guess technically I would be considered unemployed. The receptionist knows me well and she looked rather uncomfortable when she asked the question. Maybe they should find a better way to ask some of these questions.
@Kevin J:
In Greece, the pensioners and those close to pension recipient ages are rioting because their govt cannot collect enough taxes from those working to support the "retired". Problem: for 100 Greeks of grandparent age, there are only 46 grandchildren.
In the USA, our last "fix" of the Social Security system, a bipartisan agreement during the Reagan administration, assumed inter alia that the then birthrate would continue at its then levels. However, fewer babies are being born to women age 15 to 45 than needed to support the "aged", if aged equals all those above age 67.
If a married couple insists on having the latest tech gimmicks, then more income than that earned by the husband may be needed. Many things considered necessities by the current generation would have been luxuries a few years earlier.
Failure to bear and train children when young may lead to a much later "retirement", if retirement depended on the government to support you.
Don't working women from comfortable homes needlessly take jobs or promotions that could go to men who need a good job to support a family? Whatever happened to the "family wage" ideal to help a working man support a wife and kids?
The family scholar Allan Carlson has drawn out a few very un-PC statements from Catholic social teaching:
In his great encyclical "Rerum Novarum" (1891), Pope Leo XIII declared it "a most sacred law of nature that the father of a family see that his offspring are provided with all the necessities of life." For their part, mothers were "intended by nature for the work of the home [...] the education of children and the well-being of the family." Consequently, Leo argued the principle underlying all employer-worker contracts must be that the wage be at least "sufficiently large to enable [the worker] to provide comfortably for himself, his wife, and his children."
In "Quadragesimo Anno" (1931), Pope Pius XI termed it "an intolerable abuse [...] to be abolished at all costs" for mothers to be forced by their husbands' low wage to work outside the home, thereby neglecting their natural responsibilities, "especially the training of children." He added that "[e]very effort must therefore be made" to insure "that fathers of families receive a wage large enough to meet ordinary family needs adequately." He rendered "merited praise to all, who with a wise and useful purpose, have tried and tested various ways of adjusting the pay for work to family burdens."
@carriekwi, I think you made a very good point. Prices reflect what the market will bear. Times are shifting before our eyes though. The decline of the great baby boom is now taking it's toll on the economy. The baby boomers are now past their prime spending years, so while housing prices will continue to decline, taxes, by necessity will continue to go up, given the ratio of workers to those retiring. What is sad, is that women can end up being locked into a material loop she wouldn't normally favor (as several people above mentioned) because a dual income can also mean that a huge chunk of income goes to taxes. It is easy to understand how a woman such as this might by necessity need to limit her family size, like never before. At the end of the day we must be honest about true material needs, the *quality* of our mothering,spousal love,and what is truly virtuous. We must reflect deeply, in the presence of God, whom and what we are putting first.
As a former SAHM who now works full-time outside the home, and who has experimented with a combination of the two as well, I firmly believe that if we have made our choices with integrity and if we are truly at peace with those choices, it really won't matter what others are saying. I think a lot of the Mommy War dynamic is inflamed by insecurity and defensiveness, no matter which "side" we're on. When are hearts are at peace, we will radiate that peace.
"while there are moral absolutes in this area, it's almost always impossible to tell if others are violating them. We just can't know those kinds of things from observing someone else's life—and this is especially true when it comes to modern mothers and their work."
This simply cannot be repeated enough. This is the most brilliant thing said on the topic of judging other people's lifestyles in comparison with our own (both in terms of staying at home and discerning family size and childbirth, etc. etc., which are, after all, all related).
I just wonder if all these debates are indulging in a form of covetousness, or reverse covetousness (sour grapes), which is the other side of the coin.
I went to an academic lecture at Notre Dame last week about this very topic. The premise was that the culture wars are, in essence, over. The evidence also pointed to a general liberalization of positions on social issues, save the exception of abortion. Your post is quite timely. Thank you.
There really is a serious economic issue behind the "Mommy Wars" that won't go away even if the chatter does. I am a college-educated, stay-at-home mom of seven. My friends tend to be similar. Our complaint is not with the single mom forced into the work world, but with the "extra-income" mom who is working by choice.
Because our society has shifted to primarily two-income households, the cost of living has risen dramatically over the past twenty-five years to keep up with the financial boon of second incomes. Adjusting for inflation, families of 1950 could thrive on an income level that today's families are just surviving on. Basic economics tells us that when there is more money to throw around, prices will rise.
Unfortunately, this has had the effect of actually stifling women's choices, not liberating women as some argue. As cost of living rises to match two-income sending levels, most of us who make tremendous sacrifices already to stay at home will be forced into the working world. The choices of "Work-by-choice" moms have a direct negative impact on those of us trying to maintain a "Stay-at-Home" lifestyle.
@AshleyK: I totally agree! I had my first while I was finishing up uni, so I was safe from the "what are you doing now?" question for about 3 months. Once I graduated, I felt like I had to justify staying home and not doing anything on the side. After a year I started discerning going back to school, but God made that decision easy (we're now expecting another). I'm thinking about postponing indefinitely. So now I can dodge that pesky and uncomfortable "what're you doing now?" with "surviving." I think we have to just start not caring what others think about staying home and "nothing else" because we know a lot more goes on at home when you are "just" taking care of the kids and the house and the hubby.
Michelle, you make a GOOD point. I would also add not to buy a house that you can't afford on one income. I have had some friends who wished that they could stay home after they had their first child, but they had purchased their home based on two incomes and felt stuck.
AshleyK- I think you're right. For some reason it still doesn't feel like it's ok to "just" take care of your kids. And even moreso, what about when the kids are grown? Is it ever respected to "just" take care of the home and one's husband? I don't think so actually. There is definitely judgement on that like the woman isn't really doing enough. Beautifying the home, making good meals, keeping on top of errands and birthdays and having time for friendship isn't enough. Even though it's funny to me because that seems like the dream life many would want to have, especially living in the wealthiest country in the world. But I think many would feel guilty living that life like what they should really do is bring in income.
AshleyK- enjoy this time and read blogs like 'Like Mother, Like Daughter'
the one thing that really depresses me is moms who work 40+ hours at a low-paying job like stocking shelves at the 99cent store. Is that really worth her time, adding in childcare expenses? But she feels stuck.
I was able to get a BA and MA (working full time or more during college, no $ from parents, but I had the advantage of an intact home full of books and expectations)- now I teach 10 hours a week at the college level- but I identify as a homeschooling, SAHM. The extra $ cushion is nice, though.
I think this post is a call for flexibility- and flexibility is there when the marriage is working- even with an increase in telecommuting jobs
As a young stay-at-home mom, I don't know if I believe that the debate on working vs. stay-at-home will really disappear. At least, not for the stay-at-home moms who don't bring in another form of income - or worse yet, need help with their daily work!
Right now I have only one child and I don't work in any other capacity. I don't have a full-time ministry or babysitting/schooling gig or online company; I am not studying for another college degree. And sometimes I really feel the pressure of outside opinion on my lifestyle. When I consider my other mommy friends, they either have more than one young child (and can be excused for not working, studying, etc.) or they have one child and some other kind of employment.
I think the debate will shift from working vs. stay-at-home to who is living the best the stay-at-home lifestyle. We will compare based on homeschooling abilities or ministries or flexible income/location jobs. And if you don't do something beyond taking care of your child's basic necessities, then you will lose the debate.
I definitely agree. My husband and I are praying about and taking action toward starting a family business. I think it would be good for all of us. I would be "working" from home more but my husband would be home and near the children much more than he is now, which I think is important. We homeschool so I think it would be something the whole family could be a part of, kind of like families that own and operate farms.
One Piece of advice I have for women that are not married yet but feel they are called to it…watch out for debt, even student debt!!! Too many people have debt and instead of being free to enter into marriage unhindered, they enter into marriage a slave to a loan, or two. They then have to have jobs that provide a specific amount of income to pay it off. If you're called to a religious vocation you can't enter if you have debt! There are no written rules for this with marriage, but, I really feel couples and counseling priests/deacons should carefully consider this before the big day!
Jennifer, thanks for this! The mommy wars are outdated - I think because most women do what they have to, not what they choose to. My take on it can be found here! http://www.countrycatholiccitycatholic.blogspot.com/2012/04/just-what-kind-of-mother-are-you.html
Love it Jennifer! Thank you for a very refreshing article (coming from a mom whose categories overlap).

Before the musicians strike began in late 2010, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra Facebook fan page used to look like a typical fan page with posts about visiting conductors, upcoming concerts and the orchestra's Tiny Tots series.
But once the strike began it essentially hijacked the fan page. While the DSO may have wanted to talk about Tiny Tots concerts, the audience wanted to talk about the orchestra's problems.
The musicians used their own Facebook fan page to post updates there.
So, management started doing the same thing on the official fan page.
But this Facebook fight could affect what happens once the fight is all over…

John Thompson: Body found in River Bann is that of missing musician, police confirm
There has been further anguish for the family and friends of missing Portstewart man John Thompson following the discovery of a body close to where he was last seen.
The PSNI revealed last night that the body of a man has been located in the River Bann. On Monday police confirmed that that the body was that of 56 year-old Mr Thompson.
A police spokeswoman added that officers are not at this time treating the death as suspicious. Mr Thompson was originally from Ballyclare but had settled in Portstewart and had two children.
He was well known and regarded within the community, particularly for his talents musically.
One of his friends on social media described him as a "very talented flautist" and revealed he had played at many care homes where he had a "caring way" with residents.
Others who had worked with Mr Thompson at Hughes Insurance described him as a "lovely guy", adding they were "gutted" by his disappearance.
Mr Thompson was last seen around midday on Saturday in Portstewart. It is believed that Mr Thompson may have had a bicycle with him at the time he went missing.
In an appeal, police had described him as being 5ft 10ins tall, with dark brown hair and when last seen he was wearing blue 3/4 length shorts and a red raincoat.
A sea search operation was launched after clothing was found near the entrance of the River Bann between Portstewart and Castlerock.
Civilian boats, RNLI jet skis, HM Coastguard and Community Rescue Service were among those involved in the search.

He dominated the college football scene for a couple of years and now has been reduced to the back up to the back up quarterback, How can this be ?
sort by best latest
The top two quarterbacks for Denver are Kyle Orton and Brady Quinn, both are veterans who have had limited success and are great mentors for a rookie coming in. Another problem is that Florida's offensive system is really frowned upon in the NFL, don't ask me why, I know there's a reason for this I just don't know what it is. The concern was Tebow's delivery and release and he spent the whole off-season working with pros to correct it. That's rather laughable because his delivery was considered to be the same as Montana's so why fix it? Tebow's heart, personality and work ethic are already standing out and he was drafted in the first round, which shows that Denver believes in him, he just has to prove himself, which I believe he will. I would wager you will see Tebow on the field every now and then in a gadget third down play or a wild cat scheme.

We rented "Two-Bedroom Apartment (5 Adults)". It was very comfortable and rather large. Hotel building is equipped with elevator.
Kitchen was equipped with glass-ceramic elecric stove. There were many different pans and other tableware items.
Living room was spacious and comfortable. There were two separate bed rooms with good beds.
Sea view was not very good as another high building had been located nearby the beach, before our balcony. Nevertheless, we saw sea from our balcony. We lived on the 2-nd floor, not top floor of our building. Perhaps, sea view from the top floor balcony is better.

Major League Baseball, the MLBPA officially announce new pace-of-play rules | HardballTalk
The pace-of-play rules seem pretty reasonable & may actually help get rid of some dead time. I expect we're going to end up missing the first pitch of the inning on a lot of telecasts, though.
We heard last night that it was going to come down today, and today it comes down: Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association have jointly announced additions to the sport's pace of game program, which will be effective in Spring Training, the regular season and the Postseason. They have likewise announced a series of modifications to the instant replay system.
The pace of game program will require that all batters must keep at least one foot in the batter's box unless one of a group of exceptions occurs. This amendment/reemphasis of existing Rule 6.02(d) allows batters to leave the box if the following events occur:
- The batter swings at a pitch;
- The batter is forced out of the batter's box by a pitch;
- A member of either team requests and is granted "Time";
- A defensive player attempts a play on a…

There's five minutes of commercials every inning. So, at a minimum, that's 40 minutes right there. Then, there's the almost appalling number of pitches thrown as, God forbid, someone should actually swing at the first pitch (yes, it happens occasionally). And, then, there's the worst thing that ever happened to baseball, and his name is Tony LaRussa, who micromanaged the crap out of a game and, with his success, others followed because, again, God forbid someone should have an original idea. So, should we surprised that the average nine-inning game runs 3:00+?
You want an easy solution? Deaden the ball; raise the seams; call the strike zone the way it's supposed to be called (knees to halfway between the top of the pants and shoulders) and the pitchers will pitch to contact instead of nibbling and the appalling strikeout fest that we have now will be no more.
It might take a couple years for pitchers and hitters to truly adjust. Sadly, however, like everyone else, MLB is interested in the quick fix. That won't work. You have to change the mindset.

First come, first served
The first over of a spell used to go something like this: the bowler would loosen up, find his range while the batsman would size up the task in front of him. But the England attack are having none of that this summer and have become the masters of striking in the first over - and even with the first ball - of a spell.
Some of the credit must go to Michael Vaughan, who is developing the happy knack of bringing on the right bowler at the right time; whether it is Andrew Flintoff to Adam Gilchrist, Simon Jones to Ricky Ponting or Steve Harmison to Michael Clarke. But then the rest is down to the bowlers, who have constantly put the ball in the right place at the very start.
The England attack have also used natural breaks in play - drinks intervals, lunch and tea - to the grab the batsmen unawares when they resume. The perfect example of this was Flintoff's dismissal of Simon Katich at Old Trafford when, after a series of balls moving away from the batsman before a drinks break, he then brought one back into Katich who shouldered arms and had to watch his off stump cart-wheeling towards the wicketkeeper.
At the last count - and it continued to grow even as this piece was being written - England's bowlers had conjured a wicket in the first over of a spell, session or after a break on 14 occasions. The latest scalp was Matthew Hayden - the third time it has happened to him - when he was caught by Ashley Giles off Flintoff in the second innings at Trent Bridge.
Flintoff has managed the early wicket on three occasions but the king of quick strikes is Simon Jones, who has dismissed an Australian on five occasions in a first over - including three first ball. The trend was started at Lord's when Jones removed Damien Martyn with his opening delivery of the series. His victims then included Hayden in the second innings at Edgbaston, Adam Gilchrist and Shane Warne at Old Trafford, then Katich in the first innings at Trent Bridge (which turned into two in the over when Warne fell next ball).
Each of Australia's top eight have fallen at least once in the first over from an England bowler - Ricky Ponting was the second victim in that memorable opening salvo from Flintoff in the second innings at Edgbaston - but the most frequent victim has been Justin Langer who has departed four times in first overs of a bowler's spell.
Commentators often talk about the dangers to a batsman of starting their innings again after a break or getting used to a new bowler - this England team have made it down right lethal.

If you are an American and you eat, odds are that most of the food that you eat comes from seeds that are engineered by Monsanto, a company that has been trying to monopolize the market with questionable tactics.
If you think this doesn't matter, just consider the fact that just about everything that we eat contains a soybean or corn product. Well, 95% of all soybeans and 80% of all corn grown in the United States come from seeds that use Monsanto's patented genes.
If you still think it doesn't matter, just wait till you see what you food is going to cost a few years from now.
For one, Monsanto prohibits anyone who grows crops using Monsanto's patented genes from using any other types of genes in plants. And they do enforce this.
Secondly, owning 90% of all seed genetics operations in the United States, Monsanto has begun to raise the prices of their seeds and has planned even greater price increases in the next two years. With no real competition, Americans won't have much choice in buying higher priced products that contain corn and soybean products (which is the overwhelming majority of them).
After increasing corn seed prices by 25 percent last year, Monsanto is planning to raise prices another seven percent next year.
At the same time, Monsanto increased the price of their soybean seeds even more last year and might raise the price another six percent next year.
With nearly a full monopoly on the seed business, the single most important staple of the food business, Monsanto is now being investigated by the Justice Department about their marketing practices that include exclusive contracts and seeds that kill the soil for any non-Monsanto grown products if a farmer wanted to stop growing Monsanto's seeds.

What has Urban Passage meant for you? – TochiPosted: June 21, 2011 in Uncategorized
Tags: students, testimony, youth group
Written in English by Tochi:
The Youth Group for me has been a blessing since day one. I remember not being able to fit in anywhere and the very first time I went to Centro Crecer I felt loved instantly and that feeling hasn't changed at all. It has helped me to grow as a christian by challenging me to follow God's ways and instructing me in His Word. To put it in a few words: they're my family.
What has Urban Passage meant for you? – Antonella –Posted: June 13, 2011 in Uncategorized
Tags: youth group
It was such a blessing to find myself surrounded by so many people who really loved God. I learned what it truly meant to love him, and I learned about the sacrifice it takes to follow Christ. Thanks to the group I was able to come to know God personally, and like never before in my life I have a true relationship with him. I always know that he is present with me and I feel his love with every bit of my heart. He is now the foundation and core of my life, and I find peace and comfort in each day because I know that He is with me.

About "I Hear He Can Bench Five Pounds!" by FRICKINAWESOME
I Hear He Can Bench Five Pounds!
Design by FRICKINAWESOME
If this ant found its way into your pants, he would probably rip them off of you and make them into a summer home for his whole family. This collaboration between Wotto and FRICKINAWESOME passed all tests for sports doping before competing on Threadless. A special thanks to Flying Mouse for telling me about Wotto's ant drawing skills.
I like the ant with all the stuff but it's too detailed with all the other stuff. 4
5'd it!!!!
I agree that it's a little busy, but I love the colors, concept and artwork. Maybe try simplifying the background a bit. It took me a minute to realize exactly what was going on. Great job, though! 4
I had to look twice too! Great collab you two! Darker blue for me $5
lol Schleb....Wotto and I just wanted to separate this design from the other ant design he made with Flying Mouse, so he was kind enough to let me submit our collaboration under my name! It will most likely be the first and only design to do so.
As for the busyness, I thought the central image still pulls you in enough that the other pieces just flesh out the scene. But if it's the general consensus, we can focus more on the central image. thanks for all the kind words so far!
FRICKINAWESOME rules! Cute design - $5
Oh yeah!!!! FRickinawesome, you've written So many comments, and taken so much time for the others that it's a GREAT pleasure to look a t a sub you did, even if it's a collaboration. I agree with agnelli Kate, the idea is cute, it's well executed, the style is nice, the colours are fine, but the background is a little too much, we've got too many elements around here that are on the tee, separate elements more precisly in the background. anyway, it's 5 because the design is still nice ;-)
Awesome work guys.
hehe nice work!!!!
I'm a sucker for anything cute & Bugworld, and really like the colors - the blades of grass not holding the eight baller kinda' distract from the design.
That's a mighty powerful ant! 5$
Nice concept and drawing!
Depending on how this scores, perhaps Wotto and I will re-do the sub and just do something with the central image. Thanks for all the comments and suggestions...keep throwing em' out to us.
Petanca- HA! I thought this might ring a bell for ya!
cool characters and scene, great collab
freakinsweet! noice job
first slogans, now designs...how's a guy supposed to compete?
Can you bench ₤5? Hot.
thanks y'all
well done fellas!
big fat fiver!
yeah, this is FRICK! and AWESOME! big five for both of you! all the best! :)
FRICKINAWESOME, those are some FRICKIN HUGE ANTS.
1,97 - was expecting more to be honest.
ah so, wth is going on here? i like this design...
bad score... why?.....
Wow, it's a super ant, what a great idea, incredible, unbelievable, hyper amazing, noone had this great idea ever, mindblowing, and the realization is leaving Picasso and da Vinci behind!!
ants can lift up to 50 times their body weight i hear. MADNESS.
thanks guys! Well, except for mr. bulgrin and his undecipherable ways with sarcasm.
hahahaha, Wotto did a collab with me!

Automatics - Automatica
Control and Automation – Controlli ed Automazione
Activity in Control and Automation at DIEI can be divided into the following research areas
Aerial and Underwater Robotics: Over the years many lines of research have been activated in the area of Aerial Robotics. This include design, deployment and testing of UAVs systems, flight guidance and control schemes, sensors and actuator faults diagnosis schemes, fault tolerant control, non-linear adaptive and learning control, optical feedback based control schemes for UAVs in flight operations such as autonomous aerial refuelling. Vision based localization and navigation problems are studied also in the Area of Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV).
Perception in Robotics: Perception is one of the key enablers to deploy autonomous robots in realistic and unpredictable environments. Research in this area focuses on the development of robot perception systems, with specific interest for systems employing vision and range sensors. Current activities cover the study of innovative methodologies for sensor fusion, the use of computer vision and machine learning tools for scene modelling, place recognition, loop closing and in general localization problems.
Medical and biological applications: Development of engineering tools for medical and biological applications, such as artificial pancreas simulation, hydrocephalus pressure control and management, systems biology.
Technology transfer: The group is also involved in a number of industrial technology transfer projects covering the above areas, as well as general control, and automation problems. In this context the research mission of the group is to develop solutions and methods of interest for service and industrial robotics, autonomous systems, with application to mobile robots, underwater vehicles, and unmanned aerial vehicles.
HARNESS (Human telecontrolled Adaptive Robotic NEtwork of SensorS)
In Projects ,Scritto da Ricci Elisa Martedì, 18 Dicembre 2012 18:31
This project is aimed at the integration among the individual, collective and communication controls of a multi robot system to ensure full operation capabilities. The chosen test case will be based on an underwater swarm of simple autonomous mobile communication nodes with sensing capabilities for environmental monitoring. The global control architecture will come from the study of an equilibrium among three basic issues: the human furnished goals, the need for reliable inter-nodal communications (that affects the geometrical configuration), the local planning and the priorities of the single individual. The equilibrium will change depending on the assigned tasks, the survival risk associated to the operation of each robot and the risk associated to the loss of connection with the multi body system as a whole. In order to minimize the computational effort of the single individual a neural network approach will be studied for the management of the supervising equilibrium.

County Drop, New Politicians, Pigeons
Spike Hill
186 Bedford Ave
Brooklyn, NY, 11211
Doors 7:30 PM / Show 8:00 PM
This event is 21 and over
County Drop
County Drop is a 4-piece experimental pop-punk band formed in New Brunswick, NJ. Since their formation in the summer of 2009, the band has brought their blend of likable rhythms and meditative lyrics all over Jersey. Influenced by anything with a beat, the band has not put many limits on their music, or themselves, which shows in their material. To date the band has released a full length LP entitled "Building Elephants" and a five song EP, "Ink of the Octopus". County Drop is Brian – guitar/vocals, Jay – bass/vocals, Kawan – guitar, Jack – drums.
New Politicians
New Politicians are a four piece Post-Punk, Alternative Rock band from Centerville, NJ. The band consists of Renal Anthony (vocals/guitar), Evan Glickman (drums), Winston Mitlo (bass), and Gian Cortese (guitar/keyboards/vocals). Formed in October 2012, they began writing their song catalog and honing their live sound. In March 2013 the band released their first official EP entitled 'Alpha Decay'. This three track release is available for download on their BandCamp webpage.
Pigeons was formed in the summer of 2011 after the passing of a friend inspired lead singer Joe Ruff and drummer, Nick Kile to come together and create music that told stories about human nature and experience. A little over a year later, after a the addition of bassist, Marc Mace and guitarist, Tyler Boland, the band recorded "The Helpless and The Hopeless EP" and began playing all around Central Jersey. Their first EP is a collection of 6 songs about the difficulties of faith, love and the endless battles fought against the forces of apathy. With a rich blend of folk harmonies and ripping guitar solos, Pigeons pulls no punches in their efforts to write songs that matter--songs that tell stories and songs that make you feel something. They've currently advanced to the final round of Soundwaves, Fearless, and Old Friends Records' Battle of the Bands, and have booked several shows in New York City for the coming summer.

Hi everyone, Mom (age 67) and I are heading to Paris (without the kids YEAH!) in May for 5 night and staying in the 7th. I'm looking for some night time activities for us to do. I've been to Paris several times, but my mom has never been so I was thinking maybe a cabaret type show but I'd love some other suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help!

Paris-what to do at night with Mom
Report Abuse
Well, my wife and I are a little older than your mom, but we have enjoyed going to concerts, then wandering the streets; ditto after dinner (people eat later in France, so you may not get out before 10-11 but the streets are safe; taking one of the Seine cruises (I like the Vedettes at Pont Neuf better than the others but I would take whichever was closest to my hotel; wandering slowly around Notre Dame and noticing the details, which are brilliantly, brilliantly lit. We have never been to the movies in Paris (I was scared off after I tried to get my wife to go to a Woody Allen festival) but I would like to, maybe next month, probably in one of those theaters in Montparnasse just for the experience.
We are not much on night life as such.
Report Abuse
Hi sw,
Cabaret shows are expensive.
Walking along the Seine is cheap.
Check the museum closing times, eg, the Pompidou is open until 11 on Thursdays.
Report Abuse
I go to the movies all the time in lots of places, and I enjoy film so like the downtime, but there isn't anything particular special about the experience that I can think of in Montparnasse, in particular. They are just regular movie theaters like anywhere else. If you don't know French, you have to be sure to find an English language film, of course, which isn't that difficult as there are always lots of American or British films showing.
What would you do at home with her in a city? I do the same thing pretty much when traveling as at home, I don't tend to ever go to special tourist type shows like the cabarets in Paris or their equivalent elsewhere. But I love classical music and dance, so really like to go to concerts in Paris, but I just go to small free/cheap ones in churches or other venues. Depends what is on and what the repertoire is, but I do that kind of thing a lot at home.
I just look in an entertainment guide for things to do, they list everything (films, concerts, dance, whatever). I usually read l'Officiel des Spectacles, but Pariscope is also at every newsstand.
Why don't you just ask her what she'd like to do, she must have an opinion as to whether she would like to go to a cabaret show or not. It's not my thing, but some people do enjoy that experience or have heard about them so want to see them. They can be expensive, but if she has been dying to go to the FOlies Bergere her whole life, I'd do it for the experience. I think the FOlies Bergere and the Moulin Rouge are the ones that people go to becaue they've heard about them. Some others are definitely not anything remotely "historical". At least the Folies Bergere has some history behind it, although to be honest, I'm not sure they do that old cabaret thing any more, I know it is just a venue now for various concerts and things, I wouldn't mind seeing the interior myself.
Report Abuse
A concert at Ste Chapelle is a lovely experience, generally well-known classical music. Beautiful way to see the chapel. Pariscope and l'Officiel list all the church concerts, as well as everything else. Buying tickets online or a few days ahead at any FNAC store (small surcharge) lets you jump the entrance queue.
Report Abuse
The Cafe Laurent in the Hotel d'Aubusson in the 6th Arrondissement has live jazz in a relaxed atmosphere on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights from 9:00 to midnight.
I am just a few years younger than your mother but I enjoyed the standup comedy show "How to become Parisian in one hour" by a Parisian comic who has lived in the US. He plays to a mixed audience of locals and tourists. Some of it is pretty raunchy, I thought it was a hoot.
Report Abuse
One of my favorite experiences was an evening of Baroque dance at the Louvre, in one of the 18th century rooms.
I agree, consult Pariscope. There's so much on offer. FNAC also has listings in the store.
Report Abuse
And check out www.whatsonwhen.com

I agree with a Seine cruise and a concert. Usually I'm too tired to do much after dinner. You can wander around and stop in a cafe for a wine or dessert and people watch. Some museums are open late.
Find out the Friday night skate route and watch them zoom by - hundreds and hundreds of people on skates - it's interesting for a few minutes.
St-Sulpice has a free concert in May. Other free concerts will be listed in Pariscope (available at news kiosks).
Report Abuse
Definitely take a Seine cruise after dark. It is so gorgeous. The inexpensive Batobus runs till about 9 or 10, depending on the season. It is worth getting a hop-on-hop-off multi-day pass. The Batobus is a great way to take sit down and take a break while sightseeing.
Report Abuse
Thanks everyone - some great suggestions. I have a sneaking suspicion that she (we) will be pooped after dinner but I definately want to have options.
Report Abuse
Take a taxi to Montmartre and wander around looking at the people painting and find a cafe for a wine/coffee. Perhaps find a cafe with a singer or some intertainment. Look at the city lights from in front of Sacre Coeur. I would either arrange with the cab to pick you up at a certain time (get the cab number or a card) or have the restaurant call you a cab. I've seen few cabs on Montmartre near Sacre Coeur or Place du Tertre.
The Rodin Museum is open at night (starting last year). It's small and not overwhelming like the Louvre or Orsay. It looks rather inviting at night.
Report Abuse
More on the Friday night roller-blade parade. They always start near the Gare Montparnasse, and then take a different route each week (which isn't announced until quite late):
Report Abuse
I SO want to participate in the roller blade parade but I'm not sure it would be good for mom's new hip! LOL!
Report Abuse
swalter - your mom can do the Sunday afternoon skate at a more relaxed pace! LOL
Report Abuse
one other tip: take the bus! you get everywhere, they're easy to get into (level floor, low entry and exit). And there's a number of lines that take you past the well known sites. (e.g. the bus from Eiffel tower to Montmartre crosses Elyssees, Grand Boulevards, Butte Montmartre etc. )
Report Abuse
And if a cabaret is your thing, they don't get any more stylish and classy than this one. Be aware that you need to dress for it
Report Abuse
I don't know if the Cirque d'Hiver is performing at a moment, but it is always a hit with all ages. I took my mother when her Alzheimer's was only in "semi full bloom" and she loved it. Of course I'm sure that your mother is in perfect health.
For something truly totally jaw dropping that tourists never see, you might want to try Zingaro at the Fort d'Aubervilliers. It's in the suburbs, but the metro goes right to the entrance, and obviously the show is scheduled to end in time to give everybody the possiblity of getting home with no problem.
