Now that Audi has a new generation of the A8 on the way, it should be cheaper to pick up an older one. That also leaves cash available to buy a tuning kit for the old version. This may be the reason why RDX Racedesign released its new body kit for the Audi A8 called the D2.
The new kit includes a new front grille, front bumper fitted with LED daytime running lights, new "Turbo-Style" side sills and a new rear bumper with integrated exhaust cutters. In order to complete the body kit a new set of 20 inch alloy wheels were added. Price of the kit: $2856.

They come in one at a time.
They are well dressed, usually larger gentlemen, portly, all black. Their suits are colorful, Sunday best, just come from church. Vivid purples and blues, sherbet orange, pastel green. Matching hats, everything perfectly pressed.
They have the stance of addicts, milling about with clenched fists and occasional ticks.
They know each other, if not personally than as members of the same club. People with the same shame. They eye the door for wives or children or anyone else who could rat them out, or worse stop them.
I'm the only white boy in there, but that doesn't get a second glance. I'm safe and their secret is safe with me.
The man in front is up and he stands at attention as he is called.
"You know what you want, baby?" she asks.
She is a wonderfully large woman. Both maternal and sexy. Buxom to overflowing, hair covered in a cloth, lips glossy, skin shining with the slightest patina of sweat. Her words are honeyed and slow and weighted.
And he knows what he wants. He knows with a specificity and hunger that makes other in the line reconsider what they want.
"The smothered pork chops, over rice. But," he stops her before she scoops form the mountain of snowy white rice, "put the turkey gravy over the rice and then some black eyed peas and a side of yams!"
There are nods from the others in the line. It's a good order. It's a solid choice.
The next gentleman's order is equally detailed.
"One chicken breasts-in fact that one there," he points through the steam fogged glass. "No, next to it, the well done one. Right. And a large macaroni and cheese."
The word large is emphasized.
The shame in the room is complicated. Men getting away with something they promised their wives they wouldn't do. Or promised themselves.
I'm in the second camp. I have a good enough list of justifications though. I had a long week at a new job. I walked a mile and a half this morning. I had a low fat yogurt for breakfast.
The woman behind the counter gives me a slow and sultry smile. A little growl in her voice before she asks, "what do you want, baby?"
"Two thighs," I start and she smiles wider and her eyebrows raise.
"Collared greens, no rice."
It's an easy concession.
She nodes and fixes my Styrofoam plate. She looked up at me through thick lashes and adds a drumstick and a wink.
As I leave I see many of the men wolfing down their food wearing napkin bibs. More are in the alley nearby, hurriedly eating before rejoining their family.
The ones who have finished have smiles on their faces and loud laughs. Children who got away with cutting school or stealing a piece of candy.
I go home with my grease stained parcel. To wash it down with iced coffee and silly television shows I pirated.
It's a lovely Sunday.

Suki Debuts A Lip Shine For Lovers
In addition to a hyperawareness of fine lines and wrinkles, there's something else that plagues most beauty editors: No matter how many times we insist that our makeup know-how doesn't actually qualify us as makeup artists, friends and family members just don't seem to get it. Which is how I came to play face painter at my best friend's wedding this summer. "I just want something super natural and easy—you can do that, right?" she asked nonchalantly before the big day. And while the answer was, of course, "no," I responded with a wavering "sure" to make her happy and that was that. I set to stocking my "kit" with my personal complexion-enhancing go-tos in a palette that suited her skin—Chanel foundation, a Nars multiple for mild contouring, sepia-tinted cream eye shadows, a brown mascara. But I took momentary pause when it came to picking a lip product. I veer towards bold shades of red and fuchsia for events, but the bride is a true naturopath and the wedding was on a farm, so I wanted something that was pigmented enough to show up, but not too bright. Above all, it had to be free of synthetic ingredients. Enter Suki's Sukicolor Lip Shines. A few months back, I received a preview trio of the jojoba and shea butter-infused cream glosses with additional extracts of rose and pomegranate-seed oil to soften while warding off free radicals. The big winner for the wedding was Blush, a shimmery peach that works on pouts and cheeks and was the perfect hue for walking down the aisle—to Brian Eno, no less. Claret, a warm burgundy, and Petal, a soft pink, are equally versatile and will make a smart addition to your makeup arsenal when they officially launch next month. As for my budding career in makeup artistry, consider it on hold indefinitely.

Take her out this Valentine's Day, and get all the details in Exec Digital's February issue!
"Romantic: having an inclination for romance : responsive to the appeal of what is idealized, heroic, or adventurous b : marked by expressions of love or affection c : conducive to or suitable for lovemaking
"Romance: something (as an extravagant story or account) that lacks basis in fact; an emotional attraction or aura belonging to an especially heroic era, adventure, or activity"
By means of the age-old and time-tested trials of Merriam Webster, some of the world's most romantic diners must induce a series of heroic or adventurous circumstances. As you can image, we had a little trouble finding the restaurant that perfectly fused your apt desire for red meat, and hers for ambiance. The feat was difficult, mind you, but the research was worth it. For a surefire way to avoid a dining disaster during a special occasion, try out these fan favorites:
Waterside Restaurant
St. Laurence Gap, Barbados
With adjacent, crystal clear waters and a tropical climate, romance is inescapable. At Waterside Restaurant in Barbados' St. Laurence Gap, a stunning view that highlights Barbados' prized possession isn't the only thing on the menu - Chef Michael Hinds infuses traditional Caribbean entrees with international influences to transfix guests with high-caliber concepts created by the former Sandy Lane Executive Sous Chef. Items like breadfruit soup with smoked blue marlin or Tandoori local rock lobster with green and cut fries are mesmerizing, as is the relaxed but enforced dress code that attracts a sophisticated crowd, particularly love-birds looking to indulge in a lengthy four course meal.
The River Café
New York, New York
There are very few restaurants that can stand the test of time, but The River Café under the Brooklyn Bridge is one. Like your little black dress that never goes out of style, The River Café has employed the best chefs since 1977 and continues to get men down on bended knee with shimmery diamond in hand. Continuously named one of America's most romantic restaurants, The River Café doesn't just impress visitors year after year for its stunning views of the Manhattan skyline – playing true to the country's most diverse locals – its menu pleases the palate with seasonally innovative cuisine from start to finish.
Fleur de Lys
San Francisco, California
Time-tested and true, Fleur de Lys glamorizes its historic roots – from the dark red tapestries covering the walls to the hushed demeanor of all its veteran patrons, Hubert Keller's genius strikes amid the romantic ambiance. The fusion gastronomic cuisine isn't pretentious, but engaging; courses are spaced perfectly, from the chef's amuse bouche to the final tray of desserts, as exquisite service and the space's landmark status envelope guests from initial coat exchange until the door opens for departure. Of course, a night at the Fleur de Lys isn't complete without a walk through San Francisco's Union Square.
Madrona Manor
Sonoma County, California
Sonoma County is known for being all about the wine, but sometimes it's about the food– at least, that's the case at the converted mansion Madrona Manor, where guests can stroll through Chef Jesse Mallgren's one acre vegetable garden, grab a glass of the city's signature red and dine under candlelight in one of the property's five dining rooms. The multiple course, Michelin star rated menu lends itself to romance; "I think what's really romantic about the dinner itself is once you order however many courses you want, we always send out little surprises – which keeps the conversation flowing, and keeps the evening spontaneous," says Chef Mallgren.

The Axe Effect
Even though cultural thing are different from each other, as I talked before of the Venezuelan cool and the cool from USA. Sexualization is something that is in every single country, even in Venezuela. I remember this commercial from a bodyspray called Axe. It has a lot of commercial, but all the commercials are about the same thing: "use Axe and you'll have control over the women" kinda like they'll do whatever you want. we see sexualization everywhere, commercials and ads. It is sad to see how much sexualization we see these days for different things in order to get money. Because we live in a monetized and sexualized world, and one sad thing is that axe is very popular and I know a lot of people that buy axe. I always ask to my friends, does that work and they always say "do you always believe in what commercials say?" and I always respond, then why do you buy it? and after that they always avoid talking about that.

Teach for America… the Controversy
A rigorous, comprehensive educational system is fundamental to developing individuals to be intellectually competitive on an international scale. In the U.S., the race is on; yet, certain groups are being left behind. What happens when young people do not receive the education they need and deserve? The non-profit sector has provided some solutions to tackle educational inequity.
Teach for America (TFA) is the biggest non-governmental educational program in the U.S. TFA aims to "provide an excellent education for kids in low-income communities" by training educators to teach in these particularly underserved areas (1). Founded in 1990, TFA has trained 33,000 members to serve over three million students across the U.S. Recent college graduates are trained to teach in a variety of fields in education, from science to foreign language to special education. trainees learn to address prevalent problems in low-income cities (2). The upcoming teachers can choose their field of instruction or receive a position in a similar branch. After being trained by TFA, teachers are mandated to teach for two years, after which they may quit or continue teaching.
Although research supporting the TFA training program is strong, some critics question the effectiveness of the program. Controversy exists over the method in which TFA conducts its seminars and educational instruction.
Negative Criticism:
- Teach for America operates under the assumption that current public and charter schoolteachers are not adequate. TFA's alternative teaching style can be viewed as a "replacement" for present educators.
- The "revolving door" is not stopped by TFA. TFA admits it has not helped decrease dropout rates of teachers, especially for high school teachers. Only 61% of TFA teachers return for another year of teaching after their mandatory two years of service (3).
- The TFA program inadequately prepares upcoming teachers for their jobs. The program only lasts five weeks for previously certified teachers, an extremely brief amount of time to teach the material necessary to help individuals become adept teachers. A 2011 alumni of the program reported being "immersed in a sea of jargon, buzzwords, and touchy-feely exercises," instead of receiving the most basic fundamentals to teaching (4).
- Teachers unions are affected by the growth of TFA positions. Because TFA members are not eligible for unions, they can be hired with lower salaries than union teachers and potentially displace them. This has already occurred in a few cities. Chicago, for example, is closing 48 schools and laying off 850 teachers and staff while welcoming 350 corps members (5). However, economic and other policy decisions need to be examined.
- TFA alumni are not necessarily compelled to remain with the program, instigating instability for the institution and students alike. The alumni may leave after their compulsory two years, potentially leaving the school floundering to hire a replacement.
- Enormous endowments. Teach for America operates on a budget of around $350 million. An endowment by Eli Broad and a few other wealthy philanthropists donated over $100 Million to TFA, providing more money for teacher education (6). This type of funding may not be sustainable.
Positive Attributes:
- Many of the TFA applicants are Ivy League graduates with a strong educational background. Twenty two percent of Yale graduates and18 percent of Harvard graduates applied to join TFA. The prestige of these schools can help attract fantastic graduates from any university to apply, thus helping improve the quality of teachers and TFA itself.
- Teach for America teachers do help students score better on tests. TFA educators are teaching across the country in varied demographics and regions, making performance difficult to track closely. However, these findings from studies demonstrated that students with TFA teachers performed better on math tests (7).
- Money earned is – for the most part – spent on educational expenses. According to CharityNavigator.com, TFA spends 82.2% of its resources on its programs, with minimal fundraising and administrative expenses. In addition, TFA is very transparent in its expenditures (8).
- Resources are available across the U.S. to offer upcoming teachers support and information about the communities in which they will be teaching. TFA areas include San Diego, Baltimore, Detroit, San Francisco, Houston, Kansas City, and more.
- TFA's ultimate goal is admirable. This organization is not attempting to profit maximize or provide an obsolete service; Teach for America aims to educate students who are not receiving the best support possible and supply the country with invaluable resources.
The NGS Movement recognizes Teach For America as an opportunity for recent graduates to be of service, but we also think it is important for young people to work for an organization they believe in. We prepared this resource to give a summary of the benefits and challenges surrounding the organization. Please use our site to ask questions and leave comments for discussion. If you do not think you are a good fit for TFA, but want to serve in education, check out our list of similar programs here.

Taffeta Mermaid Gown with Floral Sash Style 21375 37 37
Love this dress! I absolutely loved this dress. It makes me a bit sad to see it get bad reviews. No, its not the most expensive dress, but personally I couldn't have been happier with it. Be sure to follow the size chart-it was a little off for me. I normally wear a 6. I followed the chart, ordered a 4, and it fit perfect--didn't need one alteration. The dress is made out of a light weight material, but that made it all the more easier to wear. Who wants to walk around in a 10lb dress all day? Plus, I didn't sweat all day during my late spring outdoor wedding! If you are afraid of it being see thru--add a mermaid slip--which gave it a perfect shape! The flower on the belt was a little cheap looking, so I took the flower off and had rhinestones sewn on. It was perfect! I wore the white belt during the wedding and the black belt during the reception. July 17, 2012
Not that bad Well I just received this dress in the mail today. I've had a miserable search for dresses and to be honest I am just tired. I really don't think I'd have bought it if it wasn't so inexpensive. The flower sash is pretty cheap, like bad fake flower cheap. The white one was all crumbled up and that's the one I am choosing to wear with the dress. I am a bigger girl, large on top, small on bottom. This dress doesn't really work for my figure, but I am going to make it work because I have no choice. So if you have a figure like mine, do yourself a favor and don't buy this. It is very light and thin, which is a good thing because it's not hot, but a bad thing because it is translucent on the bottom. I will be purchasing a slip to wear under it to poof the bottom out more. Overall, it isn't horrible, it's a $200 dress, anyone that ordered it thinking it would be perfect was foolish. You do get what you pay for. June 19, 2012
My 2nd dress I have a shorter dress for the reception and this dress is what I am wearing for the ceremony. I am 5'1" and I got a size 4. It needed to be taken in but not hemmed. I am wearing 4 inch heels with this dress. It is thin, it's not exactly quality material or stitching but it's not terrible. I had a very tight budget so this dress works fine for what I need. It's about priorities for the wedding so for me spending $200 on an ok dress is great versus spending over $1000. That money can go to another hour of hosted bar! =D June 13, 2012
Dont bother Very pretty on the model but once I received it was super thin. My fiancee thought when I tried it on that it was the underneath slip. It is very light but thin looking you can see threw the bottom, very wrinkley, would have been embarrassed to wear such a cheap looking dress if you are having a more traditional or bigger wedding. This is not it! March 7, 2012

This was really yummy! It is quick to make, except I julienned the red bell pepper (time consuming, but so worth the taste). I also chopped the peanuts (used cocktail, not dry roasted) to mix in easier. I will definitely make this again; next time, I will add more red pepper flake--this is not all that spicy and could use the extra kick. I am also thinking of mixing in some cashews as well to add another dimension of taste. I served this with plain Basmati rice and it went very well together--yum!

Recent Complementary and Alternative Medicine Research (Apr/29/2009)
Our monthly research synopses contain select research articles from a variety of sources that are of interest to the public and practitioners of Complementary and Alternative Medicine. This month we discuss research regarding the effects of tai chi on arthritic knee pain, the role of certain acupoints in stroke rehabilitation, the use of probiotics in diarrhea treatment, dietary deficiency of vitamins A and C in asthma, and the effects of craniosacral therapy on MS symptoms.
- Beneficial Effect of Tai Chi Qigong on Arthritis Pain (1)
This study led participants through a 36 movement Tai Chi form. Each session was conducted over a 60 minute period and participants attended twice per week for 8 weeks. At the conclusion of the study the Tai Chi group reported improvement in both quality of life and physical functioning. Previous studies have confirmed reductions in pain and quality of life for Tai Chi practitioners in addition beneficial cardiovascular effects and improvements in overall immunity.
- The Role of Select Acupoints on Cerebral Blood Flow (2)
Acupuncture is used extensively for stroke rehabilitation. This study (performed on rats) examines a select number of acupuncture points and looks at their effect on improving cerebral blood flow. The study found that the immediate effects were limited but were significant within 72 hours after needling was performed. Of the points used (GV 26, PC 6, LU 5, SP 6, and UB 40) GV 26 and PC 6 had the strongest clinical effects.
- Probiotics for the treatment of diarrhea (3)
A meta-analysis of recent studies looking at the effects of probiotics on the treatment and prevention of diarrhea in infants and adults. Studies have shown beneficial effects but effects which are higher or lower depending on the probiotics used and the bacterial strains causing the conditions. Generally it found probiotics to be useful for infant diarrhea and fairly limited for adult disorders except those which are antibiotic induced. The specific relationships that have been studies are as follows:
- Prevention - Lactobacillus strain
- Antiobiotic Associated - Saccharomyces boulardii
- Infant Diarrhea (clostridium difficile) - Saccharomyces boulardii
- Reduction of Symptoms - Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG
- Dietary Deficiency of Vitamins A & C in Asthma Symptoms
A meta-analysis of research looking at the role of Vitamins A & C in asthma and wheezing symptoms. The study found that those with dietary deficiencies (i.e. low intake) of vitamins A and C were more likely to develop and/or experience asthma symptoms. Supplementation (i.e. taking vitamins) did not appear to help these conditions, whereas appropriate dietary changes which would raise levels would appear to help based on the evidence in previous studies.
- Craniosacral Therapy Effects on MS Urinary Symptoms
Acupuncture and various other CAM therapies have been shown to have a positive effect on a variety of MS symptoms. This study look at the use of craniosacral therapy (CST) on urinary issues within MS patients. While small, the study showed significant improvements in various measures of urinary symptoms as well as improvements in quality of life issues.

Want a rich rundown of the most exciting era in movie history? Peter Biskind's book, Easy Riders, Raging Bulls, is still the only tome in town, telling the tales of a fresh crop of Godard-weaned lunatics who stormed the Hollywood asylum in the '70s and rolled out a procession of classics (Easy Rider, Taxi Driver, Jaws...).
This feature-length doc, first shown on BBC4, is a worthy companion - pacey, candid, and told exclusively through interviews with key players. A few of the big boys (Lucas, Coppola) don't show up, but the gaps are neatly plugged with old interviews and background footage.

:hugs: again. I know you don't take these decisions lightly.
I agree you haven't failed Bridget. If anything it shows what a great mom you are to let go of what you want to do in order to let your daughter explore the world the way she wants to. She is so lucky to have you as a mom!
It is scary when kids go off to school though. I'm not going to lie about that. I adore Ky's school but I was starting to dread his last school and I could tell he was not loving to learn as much as he had previously. I wish you were here because I know you would be comfortable with our school. I actually looked into the Madison area when we were thinking of moving back north before this Chicago thing came up and found out that they have really good schools in your area according to reviews and word of mouth. Even still, it is hard to find a good fit. If it helps, our principal did say that he got the idea for our school (low class sizes and family environment with individualized attention) from a school he worked at in Wisconsin. He said our model is starting to gain ground there and in Minnesota, which was why I looked at both of those states when we were looking for places to relocate to.
Also, she might not even like school, many kids don't, unfortunately in my experience with the kids I know, hardly any of them like school. The only ones I know who do go to our school and our school is just special and the kids are really happy to go there. I remember this summer Ky was getting sick of summer and said he couldn't wait to go back to school. My one main friend IRL has a son who goes to our school as well and he was the same way. When we would visit they would both sit around talking about all the cool things they could be doing at school right now instead of sitting around the house playing LOL.
Bridget :hugs: You're not a failure. You're such an awesome mom. You're letting her decide what she wants with her education and that is SO important.
My turn for a bad day! J woke up at 5 a.m. - tried to go back to sleep but the cat woke me, then J came in again, then the cat, then J found her WHISTLE and it was all over. Went for a run at 6:30 just to try to run the mad out of me and when I got back DH told me that J had been looking at one of my eggs and dropped it - a $240 goose egg. I just lost it - the day sucks this bad and it isn't even 8 am yet! DH took her to the dr. for her four year check-up and vax so I could try to decompress, but then she was out of sorts and cranky for the rest of the day. Oh yeah, and poopy from the shots I think - had to clean up the bathroom and her back AND front like I haven't had to since messy diaper days. I hope tomorrow is better.
Bridget I absolutely agree with everything all the ladies here have said. I know that homeschooling is something you are passionate about I think it is amazing and shows how awesome you are that you are looking at her needs before your own :hugs: You never know, she might not even like it. :hugs:
pm-ed you bridget. :hugs:
Sorry about your day, Katy! I hope tomorrow is better for you as well. :hugs:
You poor thing, katy. :comfort: It stinks when the world conspires to keep you from sleeping. What a bummer about the egg too. At least you'll get a do-over tomorrow, and I hope it goes more than well for you.
Goodness Katy, that sounds awful. I've never heard of such an expensive egg before :shocker:
Aw, so sorry about your day, Katy. Let's hope today brings happier things along with it!
Oh Katy :hugs: I'm so sorry. I did giggle slightly about the whistle (been there) but my heart ached for you when I read about the goose egg. :(
Bobbie takes her driver's test today (the road test). I hope she doesn't get nervous. She should be fine driving in town, in the daylight, as long as she doesn't get overwhelmed with a stranger in the car with her. Sometimes that sort of thing makes her anxious.
Katy, hope your day is better today. So sorry about the egg!
Elle woke up this morning and her eye was swollen shut. She looks so pitiful and kept saying "Hey, I can't see right, I can't open my eye!" and kept trying to open the one that is swollen but was just opening her good eye bigger and bigger. It was pretty funny. She was upset we didn't go to see her friends (what she calls going to her daycare). I am going to keep her home for a couple hours and hope it goes down, then take her to see her friends and go to work.
I'm sure Bobbie will do great Chrissy! The driving test IS a bit nerve racking knowing you are being watched :indifferent:
Poor Elle :( I hope it goes down!
Oh Katy, I would've totally cried over the egg. Hope today is off to a good start.
Poor Elle. I used to get all sorts of eye problems as a kid. The one thing that always felt good was to put a warm, wet, washcloth over the eye. Sometimes it would help the swelling go down as well.
And good luck to Bobbie! I'm sure she'll do fine.
I'm sorry about the egg Katy. :(
Poor Elle...hope that the eye opens up soon.
Good luck Bobbie!
Omg Katy! I cannot believe that happened with the egg. What a day. :hugs:
I hope Bobbie passes her test. I failed mine twice. :shocker: Seriously, when I was learning to drive my mom was incredibly critical and she made me so nervous that I hated to drive. She was a yeller. When I took my test the first two times I was literally shaking with fear. But now I consider myself a very good driver.
I have no daycare kids today! My one family of 3 boys are not coming and the other child I have, her mother is sick so she wants to avoid bringing the germs here for baby Sawyer which I appreciate very much. Sucks they are all state funded families so I do not get paid but I welcome the day off since I am emotionally spent. I cried a lot last night thinking about Savana going to school. I know it sounds crazy but I just can't stop worrying. Today she is still intent on going so I hope that the teacher calls back and I can speak to her about enrollment. One thing I did find out is that she has 28 children in her class. :shocker: It's only her and an occassional assistant. That is insane to me. Also, each teacher has a website and when I went on hers every page is empty. No updates on what they are doing in the classroom. Should that bother me? Because it does.
We are building a real tee pee in our front yard. Our street has a lot of public land with huge trees so we've been collecting all summer. We used them all up yesterday and so dbf just took Savana and Kai out to collect more and brainstorm ideas on what we can do to make it weatherproof. Then this afternoon we will try to get the supplies we need to weatherproof it and go to the history museum in our town.
I got to where I couldn't ride with Bobbie for a while. I did yell when she put the car in park on that corner in the dark that time...I feel like it was justified :P 99.9% of the time she does well though and I'm confident in her ability to pass...as long as she doesn't get nervous. It's going to be a long day waiting because I'm very anxious for her.
Wow-28 kids for K? That's ridiculous! I think when you consider that it doesn't surprise me that she doesn't have time to update her web page. I'm sure she has a life outside of school. Poor woman.
Your tee pee sounds so cool! Post pics when you're done!!
I'm personally in the crabbiest place I think I've ever been in my life. I'm feeling so mean I can barely stand myself. I still have a sense of humor about it and I'm laughing at myself for feeling so witchy, but it's not pleasant feeling this way every single day. I even made my back hurt from being so stressed. Letting crap go used to be so much easier for me. 2011 has easily been the roughest year for us ever.
28 kids is huge for a kindergarten, I think! I don't know how big Josh's will be, but there are a lot of schools in this town so hopefully not bad.
Sorry about the egg Katy :(
Chrissy you sure have had a tough year and you deserve a stress free rest of your life! I hope the new year is much better for you all.
It was the one from this blog post:
Chrissy - just try to remember to breathe.
Bridget - I know you must be worried. I don't know what I would do, especially with that big of a class. Have your visited the school to see if you feel comfortable there?
I hope Elle's eye is better by now - do you think she got a mosquito bite?
Bridget, that does sound like a big class for just one teacher and an occasional helper. Is there any way you could observe the class before making a decision?
Katy, I feel even worse for you after seeing the egg :cry:
Oh my Katy that egg was absolutely beautiful, I am SO sorry :cry:
Bridget that is ALOT of kids!!! I think taking into consideration she has 28 kids in her classroom I can understand her not having time to update the website!
Chrissy I wish there was something I could say that would help, but all I can do is offer :hugs:
Having this place to vent to helps. I know no one can make it better. At least I don't have to hold it in...somehow just saying I feel pissy helps me. :P
I feel bad today for how I reacted when I found out. I can make another one and the next one will be better. I'm just in the middle of my crunch time right now - in between two art shows (this past weekend and this coming weekend) and then shows from Dec. 10 to Dec. 24th. I need every egg I can make and I think that one probably would have sold. Oh well. I spent a lot of time yesterday talking about not being careless, etc. She did feel very sorry and I feel bad that I made her feel sorrier. I was just already so mad and tired and I just freaked out.
I agree Chrissy sometimes it just helps to let it all out :D
It's completely understandable that you were upset Katy, I think I would have freaked out too :hugs:
:hugs: Katy, we're human. Even us mothers that love our kids.
Yes, I'm sure it was a mosquito bite. She has freakish reactions to mosquito bites. DH is an over reactor any time anyone of them get some sort of ailment, especially a skin ailment. She got a bite on her leg last month that swelled up to the size of a golf ball (this is normal for her and what her eye looked like so I knew it was a mosquito bite). After Elle having this happen for 3 years of her life, DH just noticed it last month and was freaking out and wanted to take her to the ER. :eyeroll:
And Bridget, 28 kids per class now is the norm here in this state. If we do end up moving to Chicago, I know that if we don't get into a charter school there that has 25 kids or less (which is high IMO since I have been spoiled with 6 kids per class for 2 years) then I will homeschool him even though I really do not want to do it. He would probably learn more though, but Ky loves school and having a life outside of home. The class size in Chicago has a maximum of....get this 42 KIDS!! I cannot send my kids to a school with that many kids per class. Almost all of the public schools, even the good ones have over 30 kids per class, even in kindergarten. Ky's class in K was 18 but back then the maximum was 20 in K. They also had a TA in the class so it was a 9:1 ratio of kids to adults then.
I also wouldn't think anything of the website. I don't teach and cannot keep up a blog LOL so I know if I had 28 kids to keep up with I would not have time to maintain the website. As long as I had the teachers phone number and they were receptive to me calling and understood that I wanted to be contacted regarding any issues all would be okay.
On that note, DH got a call from our principal that Ky spit on a girl in his class. He is always talking about how this girl pesters him and she is rather...I'll say wild. She reminds me of a 3 year old having a tantrum whenever I talk to her and I'll admit she is rather annoying. I am wondering what kind of spitting incident it was, like was it a hocking type of nasty spit or just a raspberry type of spit, like blowing your lip together. Regardless I am pretty upset about it as this is very much out of character for him. The principal said that Ky told him about how the girl bothers him a lot but this is the first time that Ky had ever told anyone at school. I don't know how to get through to him that if someone is bothering you, you need to tell a trusted adult. I know Ky has a very good relationship with pretty much every teacher in his school as well as the principal. Most of them live near us and we see them at the park and grocery store, we visit them. I just don't understand why he doesn't say anything. But I was a little like that as a kid, I never wanted to rock the boat when I was his age and I fear he has inherited this trait from me. I mostly was quiet like that because my mom was rather crazy and was a stereotypical, attitude having, going off at school, black mother. I look back at it and laugh at how ridiculous she was :laugh:. She would threaten to sue (and actually she sued about 3 different businesses/organizations when I was younger and won the suits) the school system and my teachers all the time so I didn't tell her about a lot of things. Even though I am crazy in my own way, I am not loud and don't like to go off the deep end. It was something I saw in my mom that I did not want to emulate. So I don't understand Ky's hesitation in sticking up for himself. But now I will have to punish him for spitting on this girl because that is just nasty and disrespectful.
FWIW, it's pretty normal for classes in the private schools I went to in India to have that many kids. The highest # of kids in one classroom was 83 (that was 5th grade, I believe). There were never any issues with learning because whatever I learned or was supposed to learn in the classroom, always got learned/reinforced at home.
What a bummer Erin. You're such a good mom-addressing it without overreacting. It's so disappointing when our kids don't behave like we know they're capable of, but it happens.

Justin Bieber & Selena Gomez's Kissing Session Leaves No Doubt They're Together
When it comes to Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez's on-off affair, I don't have a clue what's happening week to week. They're on, they're off, they're blocking phones, they're at the same hotel, whew! So much drama for two young kids. But I have confirmation that at this very second -- well, at least at the second these photos were taken -- the pair were ON. So much so that it's kind of shudder-inducing, truth be told. But, hey, I won't be a love scrooge. It's holiday PDA, everyone! Gather round ...
On Friday, the Biebs and Selena were photographed kissing in a Salt Lake City airport. And, I mean, they weren't just kissing. It appears that Selena had something stuck in her throat and Biebs was valiantly trying to remove it with his tongue. I hope she's okay.
The pair apparently flew to Utah for a ski trip and may even have been joined by Taylor Swift and Harry Styles. I'd love to be a fly on the wall of that chalet! (Well, not really.)
At the airport, Selena sat on Justin's lap while the pair literally lapped at each other. A witness told RadarOnline: "They were very affectionate with each other. They were kissing on and off and they just sat together and talked and looked totally in love."
Thanks, source (coughpaparazzicough), for that info. Quite apparent from the photos! We'll see how long this particular reunion lasts. I get the feeling these two just love the ups and downs (so to speak) of a relationship full of angst drama. Trust me, kids, it gets old fast!
Sorry, I'm getting a little scroogey again. What I meant to say was, awwwww. Young love. So sweet!
Do you think these two will be together long?

Merit grants students the attention they deserve to accelerate them forward in their academic and career paths.
Because of Merit, Nazareth students now have access to their own personalized Merit Page and profile that serves as a platform to share their accomplishments with potential employers, family members and more. Students can also easily share their badges on their social media pages, highlighting their campus and community involvement. Once students verify their page, Nazareth will simply post achievements directly for them, serving as a type of resume that builds itself.
Nazareth College seeks to recognize their students and lead the way in helping them seek out career opportunities that they have worked so hard for. Merit assists in that effort by serving as a resource for students to showcase their accomplishments and validate their unique capabilities.
Founded in 1924, Nazareth College is located on a close-knit, suburban campus in the dynamic, metropolitan region of Rochester, N.Y.

|GRN Recycle Talk FAQ
Date: Thu, 3 Apr 97 13:12 WET From: firstname.lastname@example.com (Fred Friedman) Subject: Re: Aerosol sprays and contents (Dave)
April 4, 1997
Dear Dave,
I m sorry that I misunderstood you.
You don t want to recycle Freon, whose use is being phased out. You can get into a hazardous waste situation and be regulated under RCRA Subtitle C s special rules concerning recycling (see 40 CFR 261.1(c) and 261.6(a)(3)(iv).
You also want to guard against CFC (propellant) discharge or contamination, which also gets you into a hazardous waste situation; however this is pretty unlikely since CFC propellants have been banned for nearly 20 years.
However, depending on what the contents are, some will be recyclable and some won t be or won t be cost-effective. There is actually a trade association to help out with this: The Consumer Aerosol Products Council (I m not sure that they don t include industrial), Washington, DC at 202-833-9471.
The answer is that most things can be reused and many recycled, even if they are hazardous, but the rules under which they are recycled are technical and must be known ahead of time.
I d be more comfortable finding out your answer to a specific substance, than making a general pronouncement. However, if you don t have a specific substance, I d suggest that you call the RCRA Hotline, or the EPA RCRA Subtitle C office in your region.

Ladies, you know what I mean.
Angela Chee: As if giving birth wasn't painful enough -- after you come home from the hospital, your boobs turn into rocks. They're hard, painful boulders that you have to carry around and then feed your baby with every two hours. Please don't be jealous. I'm a D to start with, but now I think I'm a G or H. I don't know for sure, because I really don't have a bra that size. It's like I look in the mirror and I have an alien chest. My milk is coming in and I'm engorged.
I've breastfed before, so I was expecting this, but I still hate the first few days of breastfeeding. My nipples are sore and cracked, and my breasts are swollen. I know it will be better in a few days, but it's still painful in the meantime. I know it's all worth it in the end, but it's a lot of effort.
I need to keep feeding every two hours or so for my baby, but I also need her to eat so I don't explode. One night she slept almost 3 1/2 hours -- as most of you know, that's a big deal for a newborn. I dreaded it, but I woke her up to feed. She needed it, and I needed to build my milk supply. Plus, I don't want to get mastitis. After the last baby, I didn't know what hit me. I started getting uncontrollable chills, fever, and my breasts were red and swollen. I ended up beating it without antibiotics, but it wasn't fun.
Ah, the joys of breastfeeding. Someday my breasts will be mine again, or my husband's -- for now, they are milk machines working 24-hour shifts.
|Angela Chee is a television host, voice-over artist and creator of TheZenMom.com as a resource for other moms because motherhood isn't always so zen. She is a first time mom.
I remember that soreness, but in the end it's so worth it. Lanolin is your best friend.
I feel your pain,too. But I'm at a different stage: Hitting 50 and full on Menopause!
The rock-hard boob thing comes back, and it's a pain, again!
UM YEAH! i'm breastfeeing my second baby and the first few months are killer as I had overproduction. masatitus, thrush so much fun. and besides having two hard VERY painful lumps on my chest i'm the only one who can get up to fed baby all night long….i never knew the sacrifices a mother makes until i became one myself. breastfeeding is one of the selfless things a women can do :)
This is why I chose not to breastfeed. But kudos to those who do!
Nice article! Nice reading. I have got a small thing to make about shirts.

The Journey - October 17, 2012
More Than Words | James 1:13-14 | Devotional
James 1:13-14
When tempted, no one should say, "God is tempting me." For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed.
Today's passage is clear that temptation does not come from God. God can neither be tempted nor does he tempt. So, what is the source of temptation that shows itself so strong in our lives?
- Satan. Finding Jesus at a weakened physical state, the "tempter" showed up to test Jesus in the desert. The same tempter comes roaring after us, seeking to drive a wedge of disobedience between us and the Father and attempting to destroy our witness before others.
- Self. We are tempted to blame temptation on the tempter. But sometimes the mirror reflects the source. As believers the penalty of our sin is gone, but the propensity to sin will remain until the day we die. We are tempted by our "own evil desires."
Here's the hard truth. Whether the source is Satan or Self, at the end of the day we own our disobedience. God will always provide a way to way out (1 Corinthians 10:13). Here's the hard question. Are you willing to take the escape route?
Father, by Your grace and Your strength may the answer to that question always be "Yes!" In Jesus' name. Amen.

London - Making positive changes in personality may open the way to greater quantum of happiness than earning more money, marrying or gaining employment, a study has found.
Chris Boyce, from the University of Manchester's School of Psychological Sciences, who led the study, said: "We found that our personalities can and do change over time - something that was considered improbable until now - and that these personality changes are strongly related to changes in our wellbeing."
"Compared with external factors, such as a pay rise, getting married or finding employment, personality change is just as likely and contributes much more to improvements in our personal wellbeing," said Boyce, the journal Social Indicators Research reports.
Previous studies have shown that personality accounts for up to 35 percent of individual differences in life satisfaction, compared to just four percent for income, four percent for employment status and between one and four percent for marital status.
Since earlier it was believed that our personalities were fixed, policies to improve wellbeing had focused on these lower-impacting external factors, according to a Manchester statement.
"Fostering the conditions where personality growth occurs - such as through positive schooling, communities and parenting - may be a more effective way of improving national wellbeing than GDP growth," Boyce said.
Boyce, with Manchester colleague Alex Wood and the London School of Economic's Nick Powdthavee, used a large data set of 7,500 individuals from Australia who had answered questions on their life satisfaction and personality at two time points four years apart.
Personality was measured using a well-validated personality questionnaire assessing five broad dimensions which cover the breadth of a person's personality: openness-to-experiences, conscientiousness, extroversion, agreeableness and neuroticism.
"Our research suggests that by focusing on who we are and how we relate to the world around us has the potential to unlock vast improvements in our wellbeing," said Boyce.

The Global Indigenous Youth Caucus, presenting at the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues recently, made a case against the UN World Intellectual Property Organization as a monopolistic manifestation of piracy. As Gale Courey Toensing reports at Indian Country Today, one of WIPOs main functions is to legitimize theft of Indigenous Peoples genetic resources and traditional knowledge by transnational corporations.

I love that glowing, tingling feeling I get after some me time in those havens of hedonism also known as day spas? It's addictive bliss, I tell you. But it's pricey bliss — which is probably what prevents me from indulging in a massage or body scrub treatment everyday.
There are actually not a lot of things that would stop me or you from getting some of that gorgeous pampering at home. Of course it's not quite the same level of decadence as getting it in your favorite haven of hedonism, but it should tide you over until your next spa splurge. I'm all for the DIY spa experience, whether it's creating a spa-like ambiance, learning about massage, or — as I'll discuss today — making your own body scrubs out of pantry items.
Necessity is the mother of invention, they say. All it took was a bout of serious scrub craving, some research, and an inventory of the kitchen, and boom! — homemade scrubs! They're all just combination of three elements:
1. A gently abrasive exfoliating element. This will provide the scrubbing action, such as salt or sugar. This is what will slough of the dead skin cells and boost circulation, which are what create that tingly afterglow. Look around the kitchen and see the possibilities in the things you find there. Test some on the back of your hand to check if it's not too rough.
Here are some suggested ingredients:
- Sugar. White sugar will do, but brown sugar has an awesome, subtle fragrance to boot, plus some additional nutrients.
- Salt. This has the added benefit of being a natural antiseptic and detoxifier, so it kills germs and draws out impurities from your skin.
- Coffee grounds. Coffee is an antioxidant and the skin can absorb some of that magic. I also hear that the caffeine does other wonders too, like increases blood flow, improve skin texture and minimize the appearance of cellulite.
- Oatmeal. This one is very gentle and is great for sensitive skin.
- Ground rice or beans
- Ground nuts. This seems like such a waste – I would rather use the almonds and walnuts for actual eating. But if nuts are cheap and plentiful where you are, then go for it.
2. A moisturizing element. This provides nourishment for the skin and aids in keeping it soft and supple. Look for liquids or soft, creamy items.
- Olive oil. A lot of skin care products use olive oil as their main ingredient. It has vitamin E which is a wonderful antioxidant. You don't need to add too much, a couple of tablespoons to every cup of exfoliant will do the trick.
- Coconut Oil. This one's another one of those wonder oils which have tons of nourishing and healing properties.
- Avocado. It's a creamy, buttery fruit, and rich it all sorts of nutrients. So if you don't feel like you're depriving yourself by not using it in a salad or some other dish, feel free to throw it in your scrub mix.
- Honey. This gives you very light moisturization. This is perfect if you want to avoid feeling too greasy.
- Milk. This is said to be Cleopatra's beauty secret — she bathed in it. Charlize Theron as Snow White's evil stepmother did it too in this scene from Snow White and the Huntsman. The only downside to using milk is that it doesn't keep, so any scrub you make with it will have to be good for a single use only.
3. Scent. Olfactory pleasure is a key element in the spa experience. This may be unnecessary if your scrub or moisture elements, such as the coffee or honey, already have great fragrances. It is also said that certain scents evoke certain moods — lavender, for example, relaxes you and contributes to a good night's rest. You can use essential oils to add this element to your scrub, but I like to stick to the readily available, garden (or kitchen) variety scents.
- Cocoa. Who doesn't love chocolate? A teeny pinch goes a long way in releasing those feel-good endorphins into your system.
- Citrus zests. Your skin would thank you too for the Vitamin C, phytonutrients and antioxidants.
- Herbs. If you've got rosemary, lavender, or lemongrass growing in your garden, add them to your scrub.
- Spices. Cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves — raid your spice rack! These would add a dash of the heady and exotic.
So here's the basic equation again:
Body scrub = gentle abrasive + moisturizer + scent.
Mix or shake together in a jar. If your using oils, you're looking for a clumpy, semi-moist. If using any other moisturizer, then it can be more saturated. It's not rocket science. Winging it is the way to go. It's all about finding what feels good for you. Just combine 1 or 2 ingredients from each category, put them in a jar, and keep in the bathroom for lovely after-shower body treats. Needless to say, if you're allergic to any of these foods, then don't use them as scrub ingredients.
Here are some yummy scrub ideas.

I am using Knoppix 6.7.0 in a PXE boot environment. I have remastered it a little bit to remove some packages and whatnot, but it's pretty vanilla. It's been working fine for a few months now, on lots of different hardwares.
I am having a problem with PXE booting a Dell 740 which has a Broadcom BCM5754 Gigabit card. I believe the problem is the firmware for the card, although I don't know. I can boot the machine using the Knoppix 6.7.0 CD, and it loads the NIC driver fine.
The exact behavior is this: I do the PXE boot, and it loads the minirt.gz image. I see kernel loading lines flash through the screen very very quickly, and then the machine reboots. It appears to be rebooting at the point it's trying to execute udhcp. I can't say with certainty because it is rebooting so fast. Sometimes so fast I barely see the kernel lines show up.
I booted to cd (also Knoppix 6.7.0) to diagnose what modules are loaded etc, and found that the tg3.ko module has 3 firmware files it loads. Those files are not in the minirt.gz packing. (but they are on the cd). So i copied the /lib/firmware folder to the minirt.gz, but it is not working. I then found a post on writing a custom hotplug script in /sbin/hotplug to load the firmware, but that does not seem to be executing, or if it is, it is not working. The article I found targeted Knoppix 5, so maybe it's not applicable anymore. (i tried to put an echo and a sleep to test, but for all i know it's in a background thread)
While I was at it, I modified the init script to not call the restart command in the bailout() function.
this does not stop the machine from rebooting!
I am at a loss as to how to diagnose this. It works from CD but not PXE, which shouts NIC, but I just don't know. I've tried removing the driver altogether to see if the script will pause and complain about no network / driver etc. No joy.
Any one have any ideas on how to approach this?

The ingredient missing most often in companies' quest for innovation is reflection, according to Daniel Patrick Forrester, author of the book, "Consider: Harnessing the Power of Reflective Thinking In Your Organization."
It's too easy to become swamped in information in their efforts to deal with all that e-mail especially. Forrester tells Federal News Radio that knowledge workers spend only 5 to 10 percent of their time in reflection and 28 percent dealing with interruption and disruption.
He says:
You have to ask yourself, 'Am I really productive? Am I really contributing to the mission the way that I could? Am I focusing what little time that I have giving time to think and to deeply pull through issues-or am I simply coping?'
He also advocates creating a structured time to reflect; otherwise, it won't happen.

BISE Gujranwala Introduce new Grade System
- Wednesday, August 1, 2012, 10:39
- BISE, BISEGRW - Gujranwala, News
- Add a comment
Gujranwala, The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Gujranwala has introduced new grades for the examination of Secondary School Certification. As per new policy of introducing grades, the board authority has fixed passing marks as 40 percent instead of 33 percent.
The new policy shows, the students obtaining 90% and above marks will be given A+ grade. Students placed in A grade securing 80 percent to 89 percent marks, the range of marks from 70 percent to 79 percent marks will be settled in grade B. C grade will be awarded to the students collect 60 to 69 percent marks, students will be counted in D grade having 50 to 59 percent marks. E grade will be the final grade for passing students who manage to gather 40 to 49 percent marks. The students who do not succeed in the exam will be counted in F grade and their percentage will be below to 40 percent.
Some renowned scholars and well reputed educationists have criticized on the introduction of new grades which creates problems for the students. Especially the raising of passing marks from 33 percent to 40 percent will create problems for average students. They also demanded for taking back the policy and restore the previous grades as well.

One man is dead after officials say he fell off of a truck bed.
By Jim Wallace - bio | email ALBANY, GA (WALB) –The near record cold weather recently may actually have pumped up the economy.
South Georgia retailers say they're seeing a much more profitable Christmas season than in recent years.
Store managers say more customers are coming in, and those customers are spending more.
They give part of the credit to the weather.
Albany store managers say the countdown to Christmas is busier this year. Lots of South Georgians say they feel the Christmas spirit. And retailers say it's not just better consumer confidence. The frigid weather is another big factor in that.
South Georgia stores are busy with shoppers like Stacy Coulter, who is more generous this Christmas than the last two years.
Coulter said "I was very conscious of saving the money. Not know what's going to go on with the economy. But things seem to be a little better."
Debra Pines says she is also buying more gifts this Christmas.
Pines said "I feel like I am. But I feel like I am buying smarter. Yeah."
Place on the Pointe gift shop sales are up.
Place on the Pointe manager Honey Bolton said "We've had a fantastic Christmas."
J.C.Penney Manager Joseph Iles says money is being spent, and says the artic temperatures have helped.
Iles said "I've got to believe right now all retailers are feeling pretty good, because the weather has been consistently cool."
Iles said South Georgians have gone to the stores for coats and gloves and scarves, and the Christmas spirit takes over while they are there..
Bolton said "We love it when it gets cold. It just gets people in the spirit, and excited. A lot of times when it's cold outside we even open the door and just let the cold air come in."
Whether it's an improved economy or cold holiday spirit, shoppers say this Christmas they are enjoying shopping for family and friends more.
Pines said "It seems like everybody is a little more at ease and enjoying the Holidays. Yea, I'm having fun."
Coulter said "It's time to enjoy life again a little bit more."
And South Georgia retailers say that is good news for the economy.
I'm told some of the hottest items this year are pea coats, women's boots, and fine jewelry.
Most of the stores we talked with said they expect the good numbers to continue in the final 8 full shopping days until Christmas.
Because of the increased traffic, J-C Penney is staying open longer. Starting Friday they'll be open from 8 A-M until midnight, except for Sunday, right up to Christmas Eve.

TEAMS: Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays
Red Sox right-hander Koji Uehara made the single most lucrative relief appearance of his career in Tuesday night's 4-2 victory over the Blue Jays. Sitting on 54 relief appearances for the season and needing a total of 55 appearances to trigger a $4.25 million vesting option for 2014 Uehara entered in the bottom of the 10th inning with two outs on the board and the score tied 2-2. He struck out the only batter he faced — Jose Reyes — and then after the Red Sox rallied for two tallies in the top of the 11th the native of Neyawaga Japan came back with a perfect closing frame to secure Boston's 72nd win of 2013.
