Caroline Bowman (Kinky Boots, Wicked, Spamalot) plays Eva, whose greed, outsized ambition and fragile health also made her story a tragic one. Featuring songs like "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" and "High Flying, Adored," this Evita production is directed by Michael Grandage (Red) and choreographed by Rob Ashford (Thoroughly Modern Millie), both Tony-winning artists.

The plot was thin, and the music was not memorable. There were some very clever funny parts and a few very creative special effects. Some of the voices were exceptional, while others were just okay. I laughed several times and enjoyed myself, and...continued

Watch a client go through their laser tattoo removal treatment, then read how laser tattoo removal works and what GO! Tattoo Removal can do to help you remove a tattoo or lighten it to facilitate a cover-up.
1How Are Tattoos Removed?Q-Switched Yag lasers are used to target the pigment in tattoo ink that resides below the skins surface and fragment it. Your body's natural immune system will then absorb, break down and dispose of the ink. Other lasers, such as CO2 lasers can often be seen on the Internet and are not intended for tattoo removal, they often leave blisters and scars. Topical tattoo removal creams have also been very ineffective in removing tattoos.
2Is Tattoo Removal Painful?Each person perceives pain differently, so there is no definitive answer. There will be some mild discomfort that is often associated with a hot rubber band being snapped on the skin. Within minutes of the procedure being finished, most clients report little to no discomfort at all.
3How Many Treatments Are NeededThe age, location and quality of the tattoo and colors used, combined with your body's ability to dispose of the ink will determine the total number of treatments needed. For complete tattoo removal, a minimum of 10 is recommended, for tattoos that will be covered up, a minimum of 5 of is recommend. Home tattoos often require as little as 4 treatments to completely remove.
4Can My Tattoo Be Completely Removed?In most cases, yes, however there are no FDA regulations on tattoo ink and several hundred different colors, manufactures and formulas. Some colors may require more treatments to completely remove.
5Will There Be Any Scarring?The chances of scaring are very low, however it is possible if the aftercare instructions are not followed. There is a slight possibility of hyper-pigmentation or hypo-pigmentation, which will be covered during your initial consultation. Preexisting scars present prior to laser tattoo removal will still be there after treatments, only the inks will be targeted and effected.
6Can Only a Portion of My Tattoo be Removed?Yes. Often times there is a portion of a tattoo that you would like removed and / or covered, and we can target just those portions of your tattoo.
7What's Involved With Aftercare?Complete aftercare will be given at the time of removal, including a take home care sheet.
We have more answers to common questions here.

Dueling Greens: Clashing Colors As Project Motivation
When a friend moved into the house he'd just purchased, one of the first things he did was repaint the walls. The colors he picked are sophisticated and subtle, but it must be said that the sage green walls in the living room clash horribly with the teal-ish forest green carpets. It turns out that was completely intentional...
Ripping up and replacing carpet (either with other carpet, hardwood, laminate, or other options) is a time-consuming and expensive process. My friend was worried he would drag his heels and not get it done. By painting the walls a color that he loved, but that also butted heads with the carpet, he knew he'd be inspired to act quickly. Of course, a terrible wall/carpet color combination doesn't mean that New Floor Money will magically appears in one's bank account, but it can be a great motivator.
Have you ever tried a similar trick? How did it work out?
(Image [not my friend's house!]: Bower Power)
25 Comments
I actually like these colors together. Breaking the rules is good inspiration.
I would match the carpet but in a high gloss finish!
I have the same carpet up the stairs, in the hall, in the loft, and in the bedrooms upstairs. It was expensive carpet and has lasted too well (almost 20 years).
Anyway, I painted the stairway and hall in a color that does not go with the carpet because I was going to replace the carpet "soon." When I repainted a bedroom, I even let some paint drip on the carpet in a corner behind the door because I thought the carpet was going to go "soon."
Six years later, I have completed a number of household projects and renovations, but the old carpeting is still around.... I have solved the problem by not thinking about it and by trying not to notice it....
ripping up old carpet really isn't that bad. We did it the day we bought our house. Also repainting is cheaper, so idk if this would work if he's really as lazy about it as you say.
Oh my gosh... I have been wracking my brains trying to figure out what color to paint my kitchen that wouldn't clash with the ugly denim-blue laminate and backsplash that is white but has navy accent tiles. Nothing works. I'm too afraid to just paint it whatever I want w/o consideration of the countertops and tile because I know what a procrastinator I am! I mean, it's taken me 10 years to decide to paint the kitchen, for pete's sake, and I've hated the paint for all of those 10 years.
I like the colors together too and would keep it all! But I don't understand why he didn't just pull up the carpet before moving if he hated it (much easier in empty space) and figure alternative cover or fix-up of what's underneath then. Seems the cost later will be greater along with more hassle of moving everything out to take up the carpet at another time.
Another vote for "kinda like it." Of course, maybe it photographs differently than it looks it person, but with the right furniture, everyone would be saying how the combo is "daring" "risky" and "inventive."
When I bought my house, I knew it needed a total kitchen renovation. Before I moved a single box into the house, I removed the kitchen cabinets, and the ancient appliances. That meant I was moving into a house with no kitchen. That was a powerful motivator to focus all time and money on that project, rather than on anything else in the house. It paid off: I have a kitchen I love so much that I cook at home more often.
He's definitely not lazy, @paigep! And @Elizabeth II, everyone's financial situation is different, but I could see that after just buying a house, there might not immediately be money available to replace a large expanse of flooring. Painting the walls is generally affordable (there are exceptions, of course), but new floors can be a major investment.
@Lisa in Texas- great idea!
Casey, how about a nice, strong yellow to set off your blue counters and navy accent tiles?
In the photo the wall color reads more like a robins egg blue than sage. In real life it might actually clash, but in the photo it doesn't. If you really want motivation to replace the flooring, I'd suggest removing the offending carpet. Living with the bare flooring will spur more action than clashing paint/carpet.
I think it goes together color wise. But green carpet is dumb.
From the picture the color combo looks very interesting. Maybe "live" it hurts the eyes. I don't think I would paint the walls that color if it hurts. In my own personal experience our budget won't allow for a major floor upgrade, so I would probably find a color that complemented the crazy carpet color without actually embracing it too much.
We have neutral colored carpet and tile throughout the house. For some reason my husband didn't think we could paint the walls any color but white or off white because it would clash with the beige floors. My philosophy: No gardener plants flowers that go with the dirt so I really don't have to have walls that match the floor.
The nice photo is NOT the friend's house. That's why it looks nice.
oh my, I did the same thing to the vinyl flooring in our kitchen. I painted the cabinets with oil-based paint and didn't use a drop cloth because we would replace the floor soon. 10 years later and we still have that ug flooring with paint droplets. :(
I did that too! Now I have beige carpet with big black spots from trying to rub out the black chalkboard paint drips with nail polish remover. I thought FOR SURE we'd have hardwood floors by now. But no.
I actually think this looks great. Once the furniture is in and a few well chosen rugs I think the carpet will add a lovely pop of colour.
I have to say I have never delayed in pulling up a carpet I hated. My usual trick is to pull up the carpet and then paint the rough boards underneath in white emulsion then wiped off with a mop as this gives a lovely scandinavian style finish. I have often done this with the intention of using it as a stop gap until I can get new carpets, only to find I keep the floor like that for years. I also have to say I always wait until my husband pops to the shops and then pull up stuff while he is gone and while he cant stop me!
'm with KaBoom on that one; In one of my first homes we ripped up the linoleum floor tiles and lived with subfloor for I'm not going to tell you how many years - let's just say I remember passing many a turkey dinner through two by four studs and taped up sub flooring! It (eventually) worked-an expanded dining room and beautiful hardwoods throughout!
Maybe my monitor's different from most folks'. To me, there's definitely an awful clash between the two colors. And I think it's really a fun and funny plan that he had. But it would only work for people who CANNOT ABIDE stuff they don't care for, rather than those of us who seem to be able to "learn" to put up with just about anything for way, way, way too long, LOL!
reminds me of 50's appliances- tres chic
Pull some accessories / art into the room in the color of the carpet, & it will look beautiful.
Me too!
Wall to wall carpets, especially old ones, are the devil. I would much rather paint a subfloor with boat paint temporarily than live in a mould and mite motel.
When we moved in to our first home (last year), our very spacious master bedroom had faded and stained cranberry pink carpets. We ripped them out immediately (I fought hard for that one) and stained the subfloor. Unfortunately we found out that the original rug that the pink one had replaced was a foam backed, glued on one, so we spent a lot of time scraping old foam off of the floors (and you can totally tell where we finally said screw it and gave up). But I pushed ahead, stained it a dark walnut brown, lacquered it, my husband bought a large area rug and we are both overly satisfied with it for the moment. You have to understand: I am a painter by trade, so I literally had stain and lacquer just lying around that had to be used. So, aside from the rug that my husband bought at a liquidation place, it cost us nothing and few people who have seen it even noticed it wasn't an actual finished floor.
Sorry to say that even with a complimentary wall color I would want to replace that carpet as soon as I could. Just not my color for the floor.

UNC Charlotte is on YouTube
Harvard Researcher to Talk Mobility and Equality
Nathaniel Hendren, assistant professor of economics at Harvard University, will discuss "Intergenerational Mobility and Equality of Opportunity in the United States" at 2:00 PM, Thursday, Oct. 2, in the College of Health and Human Services, room 159.
Hendren's talk is sponsored by the University's Project Mosaic, a social science research initiative. The Harvard researcher is a member of the Equality of Opportunity Project, funded by the National Science Foundation, the Lab for Economic Applications and Policy at Harvard, the Center for Equitable Growth at Berkeley and the Arnold Foundation.
The goal of the Equality of Opportunity Project is to document and understand the patterns of intergenerational mobility and equality of opportunity in the United States, with the long-run aim of informing government policy on improving economic opportunity for those from disadvantaged backgrounds.
University to Host Mass CPR Training
UNC Charlotte will host a mass cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training exercise for students, faculty and staff on Wednesday, October 8, 2014, from 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM in the Student Activities Center (SAC). The training is designed to increase the number of people on campus who know how to save a life in the event of a cardiac arrest. Each training session will last for 30 minutes.
This is the second year the University's Office of Environmental Health & Safety has partnered with Mecklenburg EMS Agency (Medic) to promote a mass CPR training. Last fall, over 250 students, faculty and staff learned hands-only CPR at the event. EH&S hopes to increase that number to 350 or more. Medic personnel will teach participants proper hand placement and how to perform compressions on a CPR manikin. Participants will be able to ask questions and learn the importance of quick action during a cardiac arrest.
For more information about the event, please click here to email the Environmental Health and Safety Office, or call 704-687-1111.

'The Conjuring' is worth screaming about
By Kate Erbland, Special to MSN Movies
While the work of noted real-life demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren has been the subject of a number of previous films -- they investigated the actual Amityville Horror, for instance, which has spawned no less than 10 films -- James Wan's "The Conjuring" is the first feature film to actually use Ed and Lorraine as essential characters in service to storytelling. While "The Conjuring" ostensibly focuses on one of the Warrens' most terrifying cases of creepy home-based paranormal activity, Chad and Carey Hayes' script also builds in enough information about the Warrens and their experiences exorcising both demons and cases of mistaken identity to give the film surprisingly emotional heft on top of its skin-crawling scares. The result is a well-made film that reaffirms Wan's ability to take seemingly tired genre films and turn them into something worth screaming about.
The bulk of "The Conjuring" centers on the haunting of the Perron family (with Ron Livingston and Lili Taylor serving as the Perron parents to five bursting-with-life teen and tween daughters). In the days after they move into a new farmhouse dating back to the colonial era, Wan and the Hayes establish early that the film will also spend plenty of time with Ed and Lorraine played by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga. They are both fantastic and able to bring nuance and emotion to their roles independent of the Perron investigation. The film starts with another investigation, in fact, one that involves a doll so creepy that she'd give the murderous Chucky a real run for his money (the Warrens' insistence that she's simply a vessel for evil doesn't quite lessen the impact of her scarred visage, and Wan absolutely knows it).
Bing: More on Ron Livingston | More about Lili Taylor
The Annabelle doll case is relatively tame by Warren standards, a welcome change to their workload, as we soon come to understand that the clairvoyant Lorraine is still recovering from an exorcism gone terribly wrong. That experience nearly keeps her and Ed from pursuing the Perron investigation, but by the time a rattled Carolyn Perron (Taylor) tracks them down and begs for assistance, she and her family have been through enough, and while we as the audience are suitably chilled by that point, it's merely the beginning.
What audiences really want to know about "The Conjuring" is just how scary it actually is -- which just so happens to be very scary. The film utilizes a veritable toolkit of haunted house tricks to ratchet up expectation and fear -- from the standard bumps in the night, stopped clocks, bad smells and eerie whispers that horrorphiles all love -- all the way up to a twist on hide and go seek that will handily ensure that you'll never hear clapping the same way again. It's both crafty and crafted, which is what makes its heart-stopping final act so jarring and so terrifying, as it veers firmly away from classic "boo!" moments and delves deep into far more psychological terrors.
While "The Conjuring" benefits from the expectation that it will provide classic haunted house scares (and it certainly does that), it surpasses the hallmarks of its genre with an actually dramatic storyline and all-around solid acting. Just don't think you can go see it alone.

text: Hi, I have an 8.0.4 release x64 running with dual NICs, one dedicated for iSCSI communication with two servers on a closed 10.10.10.x network (no gateway) and the other NIC on a user LAN 192.168.10.x for Windows shares, management, etc. I've got Active Directory setup and working with a DC on the 192.168.10.x LAN. The problem is my firewall keeps tripping with spoof alerts that the 10.10.10.2 address of the FreeNAS is showing up on the 192.168.10.x LAN with the MAC address of the FreeNAS 192.168.10.x interface. The traffic is NetBIOS port 137 going to a backup DC on another LAN! Here's the network summary: Name IPv4 Address bce0 10.10.10.2/24 bce1 192.168.10.112/24 Nameserver 192.168.10.100 192.168.10.101 Default route 192.168.10.1 And the spoof message from my Sonicwall which is 192.168.10.1 is: 04/20/2012 09:52:09.736 - Alert - Intrusion Prevention - IP spoof dropped - 10.10.10.2, 137, X0 - 192.168.3.242, 137, X2 - MAC address: 00:18:8b:3a:36:a9 I have confirmed with ifconfig that the MAC address shown is infact that of the 192.168.10.x NIC of the FreeNAS. So, 1) Why would FreeNAS be trying to get to my backup DC on another LAN? The DC configured for Active Directory is on the local 192.168.10.x LAN. 2) How do I stop it from trying to do it from the 10.10.10.x interface and use the 192.168.10.x instead if it really does need to talk to the backup DC? (there is more than one DC on the local 192.168.10.x LAN!) I don't know if this is a new problem, I've been using FreeNAS for a while, and I've only just started seeing the Alerts since upgrading to a newer Sonicwall model. Any suggestions? Thanks, Bill

Kansas City, MO (Sports Network) - Scott Feldman tossed 7 2/3 outstanding innings on Saturday and the Texas Rangers topped the Kansas City Royals, 4-2, in the middle installment of a three-game series at Kauffman Stadium.
Feldman (6-6) allowed two runs on six hits with four strikeouts and a walk to win his sixth straight decision. Mike Adams got the final out in the eighth and Alexi Ogando worked around a pair of singles in the ninth to notch his third save of the season.
"I want to get a complete game," Feldman said of being pulled in the eighth. "One of these days I'd love to get one, but as long as we're winning and I'm keeping the team in the game, I'm happy with that."
Mike Olt knocked in the first two runs of his major league career and Josh Hamilton contributed a two-run single for the defending American League champs, who came out on top for the fourth consecutive game.
Alex Gordon and Chris Getz drove in runs for the Royals, who have lost consecutive games on the heels of a three-game winning streak.
Will Smith (2-4) was tagged with the loss after giving up four runs on eight hits and three walks over 5 2/3 innings.
"They've got a lot of big strong guys that can hurt you, so you want to keep it away from them and keep it down," remarked Smith.
Texas opened the scoring with a pair of runs in the third. After Olt grounded out, Ian Kinsler ripped one on a line into right for a single and Elvis Andrus doubled into the right field corner before Hamilton brought both runners home with a clutch single into left field.
Mike Napoli drew a one-out walk in the fourth, went first-to-third on a David Murphy infield single and scored via sacrifice fly to deep right by Olt, extending the lead to 3-0.
The Royals got two runs back in the fifth. Salvador Perez began the inning with a free pass and Eric Hosmer singled before Getz knocked home Perez with a groundout. Jarrod Dyson blooped a single into left and another groundout -- this one by Gordon -- allowed Hosmer to cross the plate, cutting the deficit to 3-2.
The Rangers added a run in the sixth when Michael Young lined a one-out single to left and came around to score on a base hit back through the box by Olt.
Alcides Escobar reached first with one out in the eighth on an error by Olt and made it to third with two outs, but Adams came on in relief of Feldman and fanned Billy Butler.
Ogando allowed singles to Mike Moustakas and Hosmer in the ninth, but escaped unscathed.
The Rangers improved to 2-2 against the Royals in 2012...Feldman had a scoreless streak of 17 consecutive innings snapped in the fifth. He is the first pitcher in the majors to compile at least a six-game winning streak following a season-opening losing streak of six or more contests since Doyle Alexander (NYY/TOR) in 1983. Alexander began 0-8 before winning his next seven starts...Prior to the game, the Royals announced that they relieved first base coach Doug Sission of his duties and promoted Rusty Kuntz to the same position...Kansas City finished 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position and stranded six on base.

Ease into each and every morning with a fresh-baked breakfast, no matter where you are in the Madison area!
A short walk around our capitol blocks will take you to several spots that serve breakfast and brunch beyond compare. Marigold Kitchen is an upbeat, urban eatery featuring innovative breakfast items, and in-house baked goods. Grab a coffee to go or stay and relax for a while. The "weekend recovery" menu at DLUX features a brunch-a-rita, donut balls with a strawberry cream cheese glaze, and breakfast potatoes with Sriracha aioli. Graze offers delicious food morning until night, and their brunch menu offers everything from cheese curds to oysters. A bit off the square is Eldorado Grill, which showcases an eclectic combination of Tex-Mex, Southwestern, and Mexican cuisine with an upscale twist. For more Madison flavor, stop by Aldo's Cafe for locally roasted coffee and breads from Madison Sourdough Company.
Madison's east side offers plenty of places to mix brunch and beverages, including Great Dane Pub & Brewing Co. and Tex Tubbs Taco Palace. When you're looking for a neighborhood feel, you'll find friendly faces and delicious dishes at Daisy Café and Cupcakery on Atwood Avenue. If a family-style, 50's breakfast is more your taste, Monty's Blue Plate Diner provides all-day breakfast, every day of the week.
There are even more brunch options to explore in nearby Middleton, including Hubbard Avenue Diner & Bakery and Craftsman Table & Tap, both part of the Food Fight family. You'll also find a classic brunch, including specialty skillets and buttermilk pancakes at Club Tavern, one of the oldest taverns in Wisconsin. The Nitty Gritty is a great brunch option for families, and is the "official birthday place" of Middleton.
Madison's north side includes picturesque places to enjoy brunch such as Nau-ti-Gal, nestled along the Yahara River and owned by the VonRutenberg family. And don't miss Manna Cafe near Maple Bluff, where you'll enjoy an entirely-from-scratch breakfast in an elegant neighborhood setting.
Brunch at Bonfyre American Grille includes everything from BYO omelettes to stuffed french toast, and the Crema Cafe prides itself for using local, high-quality ingredients in their dishes. In neighboring Fitchburg, you'll find Great Dane Brewing Co. where the breakfast is as good as the beer.
If a scenic drive to your dining destination is more what you had in mind, you won't want to miss breakfast offerings in Madison's surrounding towns: Market Street Diner & Bakery in Sun Prairie, The Old Feed Mill in Mazomanie, Alpine Restaurant at the Chalet Landhaus Inn in New Glarus, the Artisan Gallery and Creamery Cafe in Paoli, and the Riverview Terrace Cafe at the Frank Lloyd Wright Visitor Center in Spring Green.

Frank and Gerard
I could see the light of the white sun faintly out the frosted window behind Gee. The snow was falling in huge clumps, fast. I still love the snow, it still fills me with some excitement, despite the fact I see it almost every Winter.
I remembered that at my old school, The Queen of Peace, how everyone would stare out the high windows, hoping to get out quick, even when we were in later years. I'd stare deep into the infinately stretching sky and pray we could leave. The streets and alleys and even shady forests look more peaceful and less sinister in snow, which always gives you some feeling of relief. Is it possible that the harshest places can assume the most beautiful disguises.... Then again, blood only shows up worse on that white crystal surface.
I rested my chin on Gerard's shoulder, looking through the window. The light wasn't as bright as was most morning's but my eyes still hurt with that dull pain. It's rare that I just lie so quiet in the mornings with him, but I enjoy it, just being able to lie next to him, appreciating our relationship together. Letting each other be so close all the time is something that I doubt I'll find in another person. I don't watch him sleep or anything considered 'creepy' like that, I end up waking him up most times anyway. I felt his breath stop for a couple seconds and Gerard woke up coughing and spluttering all of a sudden. I sat bolt upright, saying I was sorry if I caused him to cough like that.
"Gerard! Are you okay?"
"Mmm... Yupp." he grumbled, pulling himself to sit up against the freezing window.
"Are you sure you haven't got a cold or anything like that?" I leaned forward to get a closer look.
Gerard laughed at my obvious concern. "Yes, nurse Frankie, I'm not gonna die or anything, I sometimes wake up... Weird!"
"Oh...." I hadn't noticed that in him before, he only coughs like that if he has a sore throat. To be fair, he gets a sore throat quite often nowadays, maybe from the extra moans I can squeeze out.
"It's cute you were worried though." Gee croaked, grabbing me and hugging me tightly, as if he wanted to choke me. Again, the talk of me being cute. I like it, but it makes me feel small. Which is pretty rich, I know, I know.
Gerard hummed and kissed me happily.
"It's so close, Christmas and New Year. My first calendar year with you."
I mumbled in agreement. We had some remarkable relationship, getting so close so fast.
"We should do something on Chrismas eve or something, even if it's just going out someplace before we get on the road."
"Yeah, to make up for Thanksgiving.... I'm sorry about that, but my Dad -"
I was stopped in yet another appology by Gerard's finger to my lips. I pushed it away and decided to rest my chin on his shoulder.
"It's fine, okay. I understand."
"You're the best....." I sighed happily, thankful to hear that word that meant almost as much as 'I love you'. To me, they're much the same. I wished again that I hadn't even felt the need to experiment and indulge with others.
We sat like that for what seemed like ages, hearing sounds of life downstairs. Coffee being made, chairs being carelessly dragged out and towards the table.
"Should we get up sometime? I mean, will it be a disaster if Mom and Dad saw me here?"
"No, they'll just have to deal with me being me." My eyelids were feeling heavy again after moving so little and it was so comfy too. I yawned and settled further in Gerard's hold.
"What's the time?" I asked, pulling away from Gee just early enough so that I wouldn't get too settled and find myself unable to move. He leaned over the side of the bed and checed his watch.
"Twelve o'clock." Gerard replied, suddenly pinning me to the sheets on all fours, looming above me. "Do you have to go somewhere?" He asked, kissing at my throat, filled with a new energy that had me awake in a flash too. His hot lips on my cold body drew out a whimper I didn't expect.
"No, but we can do something, even if it's just to stay in bed all day."
"That'd be heaven." Gerard whispered, now licking up my stomach. The trail left behind was icy cold. I sighed when he lay on top of me, legs interwining. Way colder than any duvet or heater in the house though it felt so good as they warmed up together.
Lazily, I played with a few strands of his jet hair that seemed to shimmer a dark brown.
"So even if they came in..." Gerard began rolling his hips, grinding into mine slowly. "And saw something like this..." Each movement became deeper and more intense, "Would they have to deal with it?"
"Oh, crap.... Gee-" I pulled him down to kiss him, the rhythm the same as his hips. Last night we didn't 'get up' to much, nothing terribly sexual after many kind refusals followed by applogies and promises so I guessed it was Gerard changing his mind on me. Gerard stopped trying to get me to cure his morning wood when our tongues got involved in the delicious equation. It didn't put me off whatsoever but I also noticed that his lips were quite chapped, probably from the cold.
Things sped up a little and Gerard planted kisses pretty much all over my face. His hair slipped through my fingers like cool silk and I pressed down on the back of his head to deepen our kisses and delight.
Gerard broke off for a moment, holding my head at a strange angle with his mouth open, letting a bead of saliva drip off the edge of his lips into my mouth. I simply sighed from being held like that, I had to put in no effect to stay suspended like that.
"Do you think...." I gasped, our lips colliding properly for a final time, "We should get up sometime, and go someplace?"
Gerard rolled us over, so I was on top.
"I suppose." He pecked my lips, "C'mon."
I put on anything that'd keep me warm but I couldn't find my beloved skeleton gloves. I even looked under the great abyss that is my bed, with all the pointless crap I had kept under there. Giving up my search I concluded that they were in the wash for some weird reason.
GERARD: We ended up going to the cafe in the middle of the park. Brushing off the snow for us both, Frank and I sat down outside as the 4 tables inside were obviously taken by either sensible, early or boring people.
We held hands across the small table, luckily I had on some wool gloves so at least I could warm up Frank's bare hands. They were pink already so I squeezed tighter.
"Where's the gloves?" I asked, leaning closer to him.
"I don't know actually, probably hidden somewhere, or maybe I left them someplace...." he shrugged, "I can't remember."
"They looked so cool on you." I commented. Frankie looked adorable, for a reason I couldn't quite put my finger on. It might of been that beanie he had pulled down almost to his eyebrows or his clear caramel eyes glinting, or maybe just that sweet smile of his. It actually felt like a generally good day despite my paranoia and agitation last night.
"Gerard." he started. I looked up at him. "....I love you." A smile spread wide across his face as he blushed. That was like the cherry on top for me. I couldn't quite remember when he last said it. I know that, for some couples, 'I love you' is used like a catchphrase around each other. But for us, it's used meaningfully. Frank only says that when he really means it, when he's truly happy. That, of course means I'm happy.
"I love you too, Frank." I stood up to reach over and kiss him. Just as we were doing so, a waitress arrived with our drinks and food.
"Oh - Sorry to disturb you..." We sat down quickly. "Here." She hurried back inside after putting down our order: Hot chocolate and a cheese bagel for Frank, black coffee and cookie for me.
I looked deep into his eyes, this time taking off my sunglasses. The reflection of me was a little spooky, it was just like a gold-ish tinted mirror. It made me wonder what he thought when he saw me. Everyone seems to see others differently, so what did Frank see in me? Often, that is a question no worth asking due to disappointing answers. But hell did Frank's eyes interest and intrigue me. Maybe he always saw the truth in people, with such beautiful eyes.
"What?" I was brought out of my daydream. Frank was staring at me, seemingly perplexed. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing!" It's ridiculous but I didn't want to just say, 'you have beautiful eyes'. It's so.... so.... cliche, cheesy perhaps? "It just looked like you had something in your eye."
"Really? Is it gone?"
"No, just keep it there." And he realised that I didn't want to say something like taht directly and simply smiled, blushing once more and looking down at the table.

Oppressive Government: Feds Tell GA Old Folks They Can't Pray Before Meals
May 10, 2010 | Filed Under 1st Amendment, Anti-Americanism, Barack Obama, Budget, Censorship, Christianity, Congress, Constitution, Democrats/Leftists, Economy/Finances, Free Speech, Freedom, Government, Islam, Islamofascism, Liberals, Regulation, Religion, Taxes, Terrorism, Warner Todd Huston, Western Civilization | Comments Off
-By Warner Todd Huston
Big Brother says elderly visitors to federally funded meals at a Georgia senior citizen's center aren't allowed to pray to that absurd, dangerous Christian God of theirs. Obama's Big Brother government contends that since it has paid for their meals the government has the right to slam its iron boot heel down on the necks of those seasoned citizens that dare to engage in such an apostasy toward the state.
Seem absurd? Well it is but that is what happens when the feds roll into town and begin to hand out money. They feel the right to dictate what everyone is allowed or not allowed to do and in the case of Port Wentworth's Ed Young Senior Citizens Center near Savannah that is to tell these old folks that they are not allowed to pray before a meal.
There are federal "guidelines" to observe, after all and the federal government's rules say none of that ridiculous Christian stuff will go on if the feds supply even a penny of funding. Old folks that want to pray are banned from doing so and if they don't like it, why they can go hungry because the new Uncle Sam is a crusader against religion.
Well, at least one religion, anyway.
You see, while Obama's federal government is ever ready to get tough with Georgia's elderly and to put a stop to all that praying nonsense, it is also the same government that at federal expense is installing ritual footbaths in airports and universities to mollify Muslims. Not only that but the same federal government sees no reason to stop bombers from easily boarding planes so that they can make an escape to a foreign nation after a failed attempt to kill untold hundreds of Americans. But damn the torpedoes and full speed ahead to prevent those dangerous old folks in the middle of Georgia from daring to pray to that subversive Christian God!
The nerve of those elderly Americans daring to observe their Christian cultural heritage, a heritage that helped build this country. It's an outrage, don't you think? So, it's freedom from religion as far as Obama's government is concerned. I mean these old folks are probably as dangerous to the state as can be! Thank Gaia that Obama is quashing their subversive activities.
Praise be it to the state, thanks be to The One, and pass the potatoes. The Obammessiah shall provide all our wants. But, remind me… has he walked on water yet?

Italian publisher launches Pope fan magazine, including centerfold pictures
An Italian publisher on Wednesday launched a fan magazine devoted exclusively to Pope Francis – including a centerfold – just as the pope said he did not want to be seen as a superstar.
Il Mio Papa (My Pope), hit the newsstands with a 69-page first edition full of photos of the pope, his life story, his appeals for peace and articles about what people think of him.
It includes a pull-out centerfold with a different picture of the smiling pope and one of his quotes on each side.
The magazine includes advertisements for a weight-loss cure, a laxative, a beauty cream and a hair-care product.
An editorial by its editor, Aldo Vitali, said its purpose was "not so much to celebrate" the pope but to help him make the world a better place.
Vitali is also the editor of "TV Sorisi e Canzoni (Television, Smiles and Songs), a magazine of television listings and celebrity news.
Both are published by Mondadori, a publishing company owned by former Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's family which also prints Chi (Who), one of Italy's leading gossip magazines.
The first edition of "My Pope" came out on the same day that Francis said in an interview with an Italian newspaper that he did not want to be considered a superman or a star.

Whole Grains, Less Dairy: Harvard's Healthy Plate
Earlier this year, the government released MyPlate, an image of the ideal healthy diet on a plate rather than stacked in a confusing pyramid. But is it really the ideal? Harvard released its own version of the healthy plate, which it says is free of the politics surrounding the meat and dairy industries.
The Harvard plate removes the cup of milk next to the USDA's plate — which seems to imply a serving of dairy with every meal — and adds a small bottle of oil, to represent heart-healthier oils. It also includes a lot more explanatory text, recommending whole grains in place of refined, and specifying that french fries do not count as a vegetable.
Walter Willett, chair of the nutrition department at the Harvard School of Public Health, says the biggest issue with the USDA's plate was the inclusion of milk and the choice to not differentiate between different types of protein.
"It's probably a mix of science and powerful influence from agricultural interests," he said, "and this isn't a good recipe for healthy eating."

What do you think of Harvard's version of the healthy plate? Is it an improvement?

Harvard's is a VAST improvement! The way the "my plate" version implied dairy at every meal is a dietary anachronism, one my elderly parents still adhere to (I get a milk glass set out for me at each and every meal at their house...and I'm lactose intolerant!) Though, I think Harvard should have made a different graphic for the oil: perhaps in a tablespoon rather than a bottle the size of the water glass.
I agree that the dual function of the USDA is ridiculous (how can you promote and represent ag. groups AND nutrition without biases) but to ignore dairy visually only serves to make more average Americans think that educated elites are all weird Vegans who don't eat like they do. Even if it's true, the way the message is conveyed is nearly as important as the actual message.
I still like the "eat the rainbow" thing I heard a year or so ago. Just make sure you've covered the rainbow by the end of the day and you'll have eaten a good variety of fruits, veggies, and proteins. Food dyes don't count. I wouldn't say I'm the healthiest person in the world, but all my levels check out at my yearly.
I try to get three servings of dairy a day, not necessarily through milk, but with yogurt, cheese and skim milk because I am terrified of not getting enough calcium.
Have I just been brainwashed by the dairy industry? If I ignore this am I going to get osteoporosis?
I know that other foods have some calcium, but my dairy just gives me a sense of security that I have gotten all I need. Eating should not be this hard.
"Avoid bacon"??? I would have preferred the use of the word "moderate" with reference to bacon and cold cuts. And since when does a potato not count as a vegetable? Yes, this is a big improvement but still not the best. I prefer to eat the rainbow, as another commenter mentioned. Then again, if you are reading this blog, I don't think you have to worry about getting a varied, healthy diet.
This is much better, but I still have a few minor quibbles:
- While it's good to emphasize whole grains, and I'm sure they're going for familiarity for the masses, whole wheat bread and pasta are still very processed options. I would have loved to see real whole grains mentioned like quinoa, wheat berries, amaranth, etc.
- I think they should have added some caveats for fruits like they did in other categories, perhaps advising to limit fruits like grapes and bananas that are especially high in sugar.
- That plate needs a recommended diameter!
But I love "potatoes and french fries don't count"!
Why don't potatoes count? They are a nutritious vegetable! OK, french fries and potato chips--that's junk food, yes. But a baked potato? And are you including sweet potatoes? Down with all you Harvard potato-haters!
White potatoes are pretty much just starch/carbs... no real vitamin values there http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/vegetables-and-vegetable-products/2770/2 I think the point isn't that potatoes are evil but that you can't eat 5 servings of potatoes and get the benefits you'd get from eating carrots and spinach and squash.
It doesn't say to avoid potatoes, it says that they don't count toward your dietary goals like (or as a substitute for) other vegetables. If you have a cheeseburger with a side of fries, you shouldn't count the fries as your vegetable serving.
The Harvard group responsible for the plate recently published a study that found that potatoes (even baked) contributed most to weight gain. They view potatoes as a starch, rather than a vegetable. To read the actual article: http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa1014296
Or read more here: http://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/gaining-weight-beware-potatoes%e2%80%94baked-fried-or-in-chips-201106242943
I think it should say instead that corn doesn't count as a veggie. it's a grain. a super sugary one at that.
I never followed the USDA's silly pyramid and this isn't all that much better. Like someone else said, they shouldn't be in the business of telling people what to eat while still giving out subsidies and generally taking sides with big ag in every discussion.
But anyone who thinks we should be eating that much grains/breads is seriously deluded! It shouldn't be the bottom of the pyramid, and shouldn't be 1/4 of your plate. That is all SUGAR in your body. No reason to have grains at every meal (whole or not), and lots of reasons not to.
Potatoes don't count? They absolutely do! They're are vegetables. They do offer nutrients. It's the means of preparation that may make them unhealthy. Not the vegetable itself!
That's like saying "broccoli doesn't count" just because some people will only eat it if it's drowned in cheese sauce.
*sigh* "they're vegetables" not "they're are"
Avoid bacon?????? That's just not happening.
@avocado, I really wouldn't worry about what the pyramid or this new food plate says about dairy. The fact that a person's body has a hard time absorbing calcium is a good reason to keep consuming dairy products. (plus the calcium absorbed will keep osteoporosis at bay, and no, that's not dairy industry propaganda)
Carrots and beets also have lots of sugar, just to put that out there. ;)
Personally, I like the portion of grains on that plate (but eating carbs makes me happy). Whether people like it or not, we need carbs (and not small amounts). And we need the sugars from them. Unless you really want to risk becoming hypoglycemic.
What exactly do grains contribute to a healthy diet, whole or not? They don't have any more vitamins or minerals than vegetables or meats, the nutrients they do have are less bioavailable thanks to lectins and phytates, and the glycemic index of grains, including whole grains, is generally worse than candy and table sugar. Add to this the fact that subsidized grain and corn production - you know the one that fuels the factory-farm meat industry, as well - have killed most of the American topsoil... we certainly don't need to be getting 1/4 of our calories from it.
Meat, veggies, good oil, real fruit. Occasionally some rice, cheese, or real yogurt.
@avocado: Yes, you HAVE been brainwashed by the dairy industry. There are entire countries that consume little or no dairy, yet they don't have epidemics of broken hips. The WHO calcium recommendation is less than half of the US guideline. Read Dr. Willett's commentaries on calcium and Vitamin D recommendations.
I think the Harvard plate is a great improvement from the USDA's. Mentioning quinoa and other lesser known grains (with reference to the general US population) I feel is unnecessary since most consumers who are already aware of grains like these don't need to be referencing the food guide in the first place.
And I think it's overkill to mention various vegetables as being high in sugar. All vegetables and fruits have sugar, but they're less harmful because they're surrounded in so much fiber that it inhibits the absorption of some of that sugar.
Bravo Harvard, I think this plate is much more informative and just as easily understood by consumers.
The discussion here shows exactly why it's difficult for any one group to provide a summary of healthy eating. One person says sugary fruits are bad, while another would say that they're fine if eaten in whole form (as opposed to juice) and varied in color. One person says potatoes are nutritionally worthless, while another would say they're fine as long as they aren't all your veggies. Some people believe grains are evil; some believe meat is the root problem of all our woes.
I like the rule of fruits and veggies being half your plate (with "plate" being a normal sized plate, not a banquet plate), foods being generally varied (not 100% french fries for your veggies), and foods being minimally processed and seasonally appropriate.
Joanne0012 - Yes, it is true that lots of cultures don't eat dairy. But even more cultures DO eat dairy, and lots of it, and historically there are cultures that have existed on mostly dairy calories. If your body can digest it, and you go low-fat some of the the time, there's no reason to avoid it.
Plus, dairy products are yummy. I like the USDA version better anyway - simplicity is the goal here anyway.
It is better, certainly. I would have like a small oil container, whole grains mentioned, and cheese as a protein option. I also think that moderate is a better choice than "avoid"
What about yogurt? Plain yogurt has all sorts of nutritional benefits, due to all the live active cultures. I can't see how low- or non-fat yogurt could be a bad thing...
The Harvard plate doesn't even mention eggs as a protein option, and lumps all dairy in as a beverage (although apparently the FDA does that too). Dairy can be protein, not just a beverage. Otherwise, the fruits/veggies/grains/protein servings look pretty reasonable. I wonder if anyone is actually using this as a guide though.
Dairy is not necessary for calcium (Kale has more absorbable calcium than milk) and as calcium is killed in pasteurization and has to be added back to milk any non-dailry milk is just as good a calcium source as cow milk. How strange is it that people drink breast milk from another species anyway? The way people eat today is a cultural thing not a health thing...we've gotten so far away from healthy eating we don't even know what health is. I think plants are always superior to animal flesh anyway. After all the nutrients in the animals we eat come from plants too so why not just go right to the source?
@avocado what other animal needs to breast feed in adulthood?
It is surely a little odd that we believe breast feeding from another species is normal or natural?
Now I am not lecturing, I am conflicted on the dairy issue - I am just putting the above out there to see how others view it!
Dairy is not the same as calcium and, you can get calcium from other things the same as you dont need to eat steak to get protein.
I would be fascinated to read any studies that have been published on the dairy industry promotion and our consumption of dairy - do you think its gone up or down over the decades (consumption not funding - the later I assume has increased)
I am trying to work this all out for myself at the moment, really interested to hear what others are saying about it.
@if1hadwords corn is full or sugar and bad for you??? please tell me this is not true?! We are talking about the same corn right - those little yellow balls of loveliness??
@bgirl: The benefits of going to the source are that the other animal has already done digestive work for you with a digestive system that is umpteen times better than ours at breaking down plant matter. Just look at colon lengths between omnivores/carnivores and herbivores... It is also the case that animal meat tends to have in it exactly what our "meat" needs in a much more bio-available form than plants. A perfect example of this is liver function. Human livers need a significant amount of dietary cholesterol and vitamin A to function properly, both of which are found in abundance in animal liver.
That said, I am absolutely not an advocate of replacing veggies with meat either. Veggies are incredibly important to any healthy diet and should be eaten with reckless abandon! Just don't cut the steak short...
@BKAT_9: Watch "King Corn". Corn has been genetically modified so much that it is now only 98% STARCH and 2% PROTEIN. Basically, it's like potatoes. Not much of anything other than your basic filler. (It is delicious though...)
And thanks Harvard for having the GUTS to stand up to that bully, USDA.
How does pasteurization kill calcium? I thought it was a mineral.
I'm a little ambivalent on the dairy thing. My baby is close to weaning (from the boob) and she has lately turned against cow dairy - yogurt and what have you - and I'm disinclined to push it on her, because that's sort of the definition of weaning, as others are pointing out. Yet I'm concerned about her bones and teeth and pushing the kale agenda seems even tougher. She already gets a daily dose of greens.
Does anybody really follow these plates anyway? Whether or not you think they were well founded, the four squares plate was fairly simple to remember (at least it was symmetrical), and the pyramid gave a memorable, general sense of proportions, but this seems overly complex. Six different elements, not all on the plate, caveats and exceptions in the fine print, who needs it? I think campaigns like five a day or whatever are snappier and more practical when you're in the grocery store. (My personal guideline is the "nine a day / eat the rainbow" suggestion - I don't always make it, but the attempt definitely guides my buying and eating and works out to so much attention on counting fruits and veggies that after adding in a protein source there isn't much room left for too much junk.

Plywood Walls Around the Home?
Plywood is usually the sign of a work in progress, but as this living room proves, it doesn't have to be. For an inexpensive way to cover your walls, you could consider using the material as an off-beat option...
This image comes from a 2007 Country Home Magazine showcase home (random, we know). We're still a bit skeptical, but under the right circumstances we think walls covered in plywood could be a modern, unique and very affordable way to update a room. Tell us, would you consider using plywood as a wall treatment?
26 Comments
I once saw a plywood floor on a kitchen-remodel-on-a-budget TV show. It was given a very slight stain & varnish and looked fabulous. Interesting to see it used as a wall cover -- it looks great here.
Wouldn't it need to be varnished to protect it from insects, limit sawdust an splinters?
I recently finished putting up a plywood paneled wall as a back panel behind my desk which takes up an entire wall. I used a whitewash pickling stain and water based urethane sealer to finish it. It looks pretty good. Good plywood ain't cheap tho'.
Yuck no
This doesn't look good...it looks unfinished.
A whole room would be too much, but one wall in combination with some paint or tile would look very cool.
weird, i was just pondering plywood walls a few minutes ago after spying them here: http://www.remodelista.com/2008/12/30/architect-visit-ps-arkitektur-cabin/ (via http://www.doorsixteen.com/2009/01/05/another-door-sixteen/ )
i bought a house whose basement walls are covered in it (complete with useless plywood built-in benches which i've torn out). the varnished plywood was really dark (from age) and it was depressing going down there; i painted over the walls right quick with a good primer and lots of white paint. i can't imagine ever using the material for walls again. it's an interesting idea but it still looks ever so slightly unfinished to me. i'd like to see redbeard's whitewashed wall...i think it would look nice!
i have a certain fondness for plywood floors though. it's what my family's cottage was laid with (probably back in the 70s)!
I'm with you Lily. I have my doubts, but I think under the right circumstances it could be beautiful.
Honestly, I think the plywood wall in the picture is beautiful. That being said, I do not think the furniture in the room flatters the wall at all.
Perhaps an entire room would be too much. Maybe an accent wall with plywood? Or stained/painted plywood?
Interesting! I like it. It looks like a faux bois wallpaper, but this bois is the real deal.
Wow, that is cool. I think as long as the furnishings are tailored this looks more chic than country. The photo above and the home that thegeneral linked to are two completely different styles (furnishings and the plywood) but I think they both work. I agree, I'd like to see redbeard's!
What about painting the plywood. Just for a single small wall in a no-painting rental?
This was a big thing at a few fashiion boutiques that opened in HK about 2 yrs ago, notably Chloe: http://www.nitrolicious.com/blog/2006/11/30/chloe-admiralty-hk/
Not a bad idea. Its affordable and does look bad at all.
red sofas would make it look better i guess what do you say to that ?
You can buy veneered plywood in all types of woods. Veneered plywood looks much better (imho).
example of plywood with a walnut veneer:
We have a wall done in plywood that came from a packing crate from Iceland. Interesting since Iceland does not have trees. The plywood actually came from BC and was sent to Iceland made into crates and then send back to BC where it become our wall. All of our walls have stories.
We cut it into 6 inch wide planks (by 8 feet long) and laid it horizontally on the wall. It looks both chic and homey at the same time and can be dressed up or down easily.
It is first grade plywood and does not have splinters, nor did we varnish or treat it in anyway.
If you're worried that bugs might eat your walls, you got a whole lot more problem than your walls. Bugs would eat a whole lot of house before they ever tasted a wall.
Wood paneled walls can look good, or bad, depending.
My main problem with wood walls: it's totally unforgiving when it comes to hanging art or other things (shelving, sconces...). You can spackle drywall, but what does one do about holes in wood panels?
I think it's gorgeous
luv it. does it give off any creepy gases.
I believe the word is no. (repeat. no.)
i think the picture is cunningly cheating by being all pastel (oh the joys of picture editing ...).
maybe a very new wall might look like that - or did they stain it? unstained, it will grow much darker and more yellow with time, and that is not going to look as nice as in this picture.
I have seen a number of plywood paneled interiors which were simply spectacular. As a result, I considered using plywood to cover a wall in my living room. My plan was to use maple or birch faced 1/2 inch plywood, finished in a clear varnish. Although a project like this can be done for moderate cost, the time involved in the finishing of the panels was more than I cared to invest.
I think it's cool, but besides the nail holes, how would you clean areas near the light switch, etc? I'm not wild about shiny varnishes, either. I'd want a pale, driftwoody kind of vibe.
The crates (Icelandic or otherwise) sound cool, though.
That exact article inspired our basement reno last summer! I'd saved it for years, and when it was time to make-over our basement, I brought it out and that's what we went with after much discussion.
It was perfect for what we needed - to cover a lot of nothing, to keep it light in colour but cosy and to be really really affordable. The biggest problem was that the article claimed that the panels used were something like $6 or $8 (US) apiece, and they couldn't have been. Our contractor told us that the quality shown in the images are much more expensive sheets, more like $15 per panel, and that they had to have spent hours flipping through finding only the most gorgeous ones. He told us that a little too late, though neither we nor our contractors were the type to stand at Home Depot and agonize over the grain in plywood panels anyway. Looking back, since we only used about 10 panels, I'd say that upgrade would have been worth it for any other place, but for our basement rec room it's fine. About $100 more in materials is nothing compared to the labour. We also had to use a more obvious strapping to hide the seams, but decided that didn't matter much to us. "Unfinished" is all it was ever going to be, as we kept the cement floor and just painted it, and kept the ceiling (joists, really) unfinished and just sprayed all that white once we'd emptied the room. We wanted to spend more fixing up an awful old bathroom down there and turning one small room into a walk-in cedar closet for our vintage and winter clothing. We live in a circa 1903 semi-detached home, and have no closets upstairs.
Ours have three coats of a satin varnish, after one light sanding, and do feel a bit rough - but we don't go around feeling our walls. We have no problems with dust or cleaning around switches. As with any wall in our house, a damp microfiber cloth with some Dr. Bronner's takes care of smudges and we do a light wash once in a while; we use a magic eraser for tougher marks. And why am I saying we? I do all the cleaning. (I guess the use of we on this site is contagious.) It's been a year, and they haven't darkened. It's my husband's "man cave", so we have musical instruments and posters he's made hanging We just chose the spots carefully - nothing's moving around any time soon, and so we're not going to freak about nail holes. There was one small hole that the contractor needed to fill, and he used a wood putty and it's not noticeable unless you're looking for it.
It's furnished with mid-century teak and musical instruments and accoutrements. It won't win any prizes, but I will speak up for plywood walls by saying it's great for non-fussy people for use in places that will never be perfect anyway; and when you see our before and after, I'm sure anyone would agree:
Before: http://www.flickr.com/photos/truthandbeauty/3441622551/in/photostream/
After: http://www.flickr.com/photos/truthandbeauty/3442438504/
And, apologies for the photo editing - but I don't have any other pictures hand and have already spent enough time blathering on without running downstairs to take new ones!
The first comment here sums up my thoughts... inadvertantly. I think it looks like it has been done on a bad budget tv show. I'm gonna go with nope.
I was going to say I didn't really like this idea... mostly because of how the seams between the plywood looked in my head.
Then I saw Marla's pictures and the way she put molding over the seams. WOW! That looks really great Marla! Consider me converted! (And consider that picture saved so I can use it for a future resource ;) )
It entirely depends on the face veneer.
If it's construction grade and left natural, then no way - it will never look like anything other than someone's garage...
...but choose a beautiful birch veneer as we have pictured - or another wood species for the face - and I don't see the problem.

Trigger thumb may get better on its own. Some children with trigger thumb need treatment so their thumb can move freely.
If the doctor believes stretching and splinting will be enough to cure your child's trigger thumb, they will start with these options.
They will teach you stretches and massage to do at home. This can help free the bump (nodule) from the tough band (ligament, A1 pulley) where it sticks.
Your child may also need to wear a thumb splint to stretch their thumb and hold it straight. Because this prevents the thumb from moving, it may keep the A1 pulley from bothering the tendon. The swelling may decrease, and the tendon may glide the way it should.
If stretching and splinting aren't enough, your child will need a day surgery, called trigger thumb release or A1 pulley release.
The surgeon makes a small cut (incision) on your child's palm in the crease of skin at the base of the thumb. Then the surgeon cuts through the A1 pulley. This takes pressure off the tendon and allows it to glide smoothly. (The surgeon doesn't cut into the tendon or remove the nodule.)
After surgery, your child will need a bandage for one to two weeks to protect their thumb while it heals. Trigger thumb rarely comes back, and children rarely need any other treatment for it. You can expect your child to regain normal use of their thumb.

Monday, December 12, 2011: Not Much Hope For Snow In Near Future
Good Monday morning, everybody. I hope you've had a great weekend as we "ramp up" to the holidays!
We'll have a very quiet start to the workweek, with temperatures rising into the upper 40s under partly sunny skies today. Sunshine will mix with some thin, high clouds. We'll remain dry through the evening.
Late tonight, we can't rule out a few sprinkles or light rain showers in far southern or southeastern Kentucky as a very weak disturbance clips the corner of Kentucky near the Virginia border. Here is the latest WRF forecast for precipitation over the next 24 hours, through the night tonight. Any of the KY showers would fall late at night as liquid rain.
Courtesy: Penn State Univ. Dept. of Meteorology
Colder air will follow on the heels of that system, dropping highs back into the 40s from Friday through Sunday.
Before I close, here's a quick update on the flooding situation at Herrington Lake. The lake is still about 2' above flood stage, and it continues to fall. You can see the two rises the lake has endured over the past two weeks after a pair of heavy rainfall events. The LIMITED rainfall over the next three days will continue to help waters to recede.
Thanks for stopping by the weather blog. Have a great start to the workweek!
