This is the sixth in a series of stories to celebrate the five-year anniversary of Momania. We are flashing back to some of our favorite columns and blogs. We often talk on the blog about passages and new stages in life for us and our kids. Giving up my maternity clothes and weaning my last baby were very difficult for me. My childbearing years were over and many moms related to those feelings.
By THERESA WALSH GIARRUSSO
I never gave away any of my maternity clothes in between my pregnancies. I always knew I wasn't done yet. They sat in plastic containers in the attic waiting for the next addition to our family.
But now with our last baby born and a move to another house upon us, I have no excuse not to part with these oversized garments — except that I haven't quite been ready to give them up.
Parting with maternity clothes is acknowledging that your childbearing time is done. It's the passing of an era: No more excitement of taking a pregnancy test hoping to see two lines show up; no more joy of hearing a rapid little heartbeat at the doctor's office or seeing that little butter bean inside of you; and no more planning how to surprise your husband or your family with news that another miracle is coming into your lives.
All of that is over, and it makes me sad.
It also makes me feel old. Somehow if you're still having babies, you seem young. But if you're past childbearing, then you've moved on to menopausal.
I turned 35 in April so in theory I could have more babies, but I don't think I could handle four kids, and this last pregnancy had its scary moments.
Even in college when we talked about getting married and having babies, it was always three. Even though I feel like our family is the right size now, it's still a little heartbreaking to know I'll never feel another baby kick inside of me.
As I was packing up my stuff at the hospital preparing to bring our last baby home, I cried because I knew I would never be back at Piedmont Hospital again for a happy reason. There are no more good things that can happen in my life at a hospital. I don't plan on having a face lift or boob job, and even if you're pleased with those results, they couldn't rival the joy of giving birth. All that's left now are heart attacks and cancer.
I got brave a few weeks ago and called the Quinn House, a homeless ministry in Gwinnett. I started crying on the phone when I asked the woman if they could use my maternity clothes. She assured me she had lots of mothers who could benefit from my donation.
About a week later the kids and I drove out there with the minivan full of maternity clothes, boy baby clothes and toys. During the trip to Lawrenceville, I kept preaching to my children the virtues of giving to the less fortunate. (I think I was trying to bolster my own confidence.) I started crying as my van was unloaded, and was still crying as we drove away. The kids wanted to know why. I told them while it was good to give our clothes and toys to other mommies who could use them, it was hard to let go of things that reminded me of when they were inside of me and when they were babies. I told them I was sad that time in my life was over.
I keep trying to convince myself there are benefits to knowing you're not going to get pregnant again. For one, we can start making plans. We can say now, "OK in three years, all of the children will be old enough to travel to Europe." We can actually start getting rid of toys and clothes as our baby passes the age she can use them. I can lose my baby weight and not feel like it's an exercise in futility because I'll just be putting it back on in a couple of years.
I keep telling myself that even if the childbearing is done, there is still lots of child rearing to go. I'm trying to focus on the joys that lie ahead as we help our children grow.
How did you know when your childbearing time was over? How did you feel? What are the benefits to know that time in your life is over? What were you sad about? Did it make you feel old?

I wasn't sad to quit having babies. I was sad when it was no longer POSSIBLE to have babies (ie, hysterectomy). Until then, it was just a "probably".

I can identify with this! I have absolutely no real desire to have more than two children. My husband had a vasectomy this summer, and I'm glad. However, I think watching that last baby turn 2 and get bigger and bigger every day just kills me! I call it the "I've turned 40 and my baby is getting bigger blues." I do look forward to all of their stages in life, but I have a near anxiety attack at how fast my youngest is growing. Getting rid of the baby swing and some of the other infant things made me bawl. The portable swing had a specific tune, and just to think of it makes me weep. It snaps be back to fast to when my first was an infant, it's unbelievable. It didn't bother me to get rid of maternity clothes, but some of their clothes and certainly a lot of the gear takes a little piece of my soul with it as it slowly goes out the door.

Wow, I never had those emotions- certainly not about maternity clothes! When I had my son, I figured I would eventually have more children but I was waiting for the 'right' time to do it again. And so far my life has become like the saying, 'if you wait for the right time to have children, you never will'. I'm sure the hardest thing for me will be him moving out after graduation (in less than 3 years!!)

I am a mother of 1…will probably only be 1. I have mourned every stage we have passed so far and she is only 16 months old!! I have also cherished every moment and am sad to see it go by so fast.

2:53 pm
My 10yo looked at me last night and said "Why does the babyhood part go by so fast? I remember being little but it seems like it was a short time."
I told her, you think that, I am sitting here thinking 11 years ago I was pregnant with you and where did that time go!!!! I said it just makes us remember we have to do our best to make memories worth thinking about.

Everything about being a parent is so bittersweet. It's good to know I'm not the only one who feels that way. With my first, I looked forward to every little milestone, sweetly oblivious to just how quickly it would pass. In the blink of an eye that little baby is 8 years old. Still a sweetie, but obviously very different. Now that I'm on my third I have finally learned to cherish every single moment, but it certainly hasn't kept him from growing just as quickly.

You have three kids…. a husband who provides…. three healthy intelligent children… your health…. you are looking at it through the wrong end of the telescope. If you're this emotional now, wait until Menopause.

Sadly, that time is here for me as well. I wish I could do it over again, because I think I would enjoy it more now, but that window is closing with the 40th birthday this year. Oh well. Sometimes that's the way life works. I'll focus on the time I DO have with the munchkin.

Hardest for me was the eldest going to college. It didn't help that her little sister was frantic with missing her, too (brother didn't seem too bothered) . Little sis would call her and beg to let her come sleep on the floor and eat scraps from the cafeteria. The pain lessened for both of us over time.
Second worst: Wait till the baby graduates from college and moves thousands of miles away! I was a basket case for about 3 days–could only wail and cry. After 6 months she came back (about 80 miles away) and that seems like almost next door.
Enjoy each season of their lives, Theresa.

It was weird with me. I didn't mind getting rid of much of anything after my babies weren't babies anymore – at least the first 3. Then a divorce, so I didn't plan on any more children. But after my current husband & I got together and had a child, I had such a hard time parting with her little things. Maternity clothes weren't an issue (I hated being pregnant and my body stretching to outrageous proportions; loved the feeling of them inside me kicking and turning though.) But I sat on the couch and cried when I knew she had nursed for the last time on her first birthday. I just recently got rid of the breastpump I had & she's now closer to 3 yrs. I love all my children but I think now that I know for sure that there won't be anymore (tubal & hysterectomy – double sure!) some milestones are bittersweet. I'm enjoying them all at their various stages though.

I can COMPLETELY relate to this. I only have one right now but we're contemplating a second. Just thinking about the time that's passed since our first was a baby (she's 5 now) makes me long for another little one to cuddle. Whoever above said that "parenting is bittersweet" was exactly correct.

i was very happy to be giving away all the maternity and baby stuff. i was overjoyed to clean up all the mess and oversized things like crib and swing in the house. i have saved up all the stuff that my older one used for the little one… so have to store away too much. i am sad that my baby is growing up fast and soon there won't be a little one clinging to me at all times. the clinging and wanting used to bother me with the first kid but now i love it with the second one. i know now when my mom says "i want you to want me".
October 27th, 2010

I packed away my daughters baby stuff always thinking we would have another. Some how time passed and another child was not in the picture for me. She is now 18 and everything is still packed away.
October 27th, 2010
9:37 pm
No tears for me. We still have the BARBIE Castle in the basement closet and my daughter ( at UGA) just recently mentioned we may need to haul it out and get rid of it. She was 5 when we moved here….the time has FLOWN but I love getting to know my kids as adults. We have always had a relationship that I never enjoyed with my parents.

You know, I wasn't sad when I decided not to have more children. I really didn't enjoy either of my pregnancies, but that was due to the situation I was in at the time. Years later, after marrying a good man, I have wished many times that I could have another one and really enjoy the pregnancy. However, with him I gained 2 more great kids so I don't get down about it.

Attorney General Corbett announces criminal charges against Fayette County attorney; first arrest by AG's Elder Abuse Unit
HARRISBURG - Attorney General Tom Corbett today announced that agents from the Attorney General's Elder Abuse Unit have filed criminal charges against a Fayette County attorney accused of stealing nearly $100,000 in mortgage settlement payments from older clients.
Corbett identified the defendant as Mark Morrison, 49, 1169 National Pike, Hopwood, Fayette County. Morrison is a former Assistant District Attorney for Fayette County and former solicitor for the Fayette County Airport Authority.
The criminal charges state that in August and December 2005, Morrison, serving as a private attorney, handled mortgage settlements for two Fayette County couples. As part of the mortgage settlements, Morrison was supplied with funds to settle all previous outstanding mortgage loans on the properties.
Corbett said that according to the criminal charges, Morrison used a small portion of the funds to settle smaller mortgages on the properties, but kept $99,182 for his own benefit - concealing the fact that he had not paid off all of the loans, as he was obligated to do.
According to the criminal charges, Morrison allegedly changed the billing address for one of the mortgage loans and began making smaller monthly payments himself. This alleged scheme was discovered in March 2006 when a payment arrived late and the mortgage company contacted the property owners - informing them that the loan had not been paid off, as they had believed.
Additionally, Corbett said that Morrison is charged with falsifying documents concerning title insurance which he claimed to have obtained for the two mortgage settlements.
According to the criminal complaint, forged letters, purportedly from First American Title Insurance, were presented by Morrison at both closings. Those letters falsely stated that Morrison was an "issuing agent" or "approved attorney" for First American Title Insurance and bear the authorizing signature of an individual who does not work for the title insurance company.
The criminal charges also state that Morrison failed to make other required payments from the mortgage settlements, including taxes, hazard insurance, broker fees and processing fees.
Corbett said that according to the criminal complaint, a review of Morrison's business and personal bank records show that the funds to pay off various mortgages were electronically transferred into a secure account controlled by Morrison, but those funds were depleted without any payments to the mortgage companies.
Morrison is charged with two counts each of theft by failure to make required disposition of funds and forgery, third degree felonies each punishable by up to seven years in prison and $15,000 in fines.
Morrison is also charged with two counts each of tampering with public records and misapplication of entrusted property, first degree misdemeanors each punishable by up to one year in prison and $10,000 in fines.
Morrison was preliminarily arraigned today before Uniontown Magisterial District Judge Mark L. Blair, and released on $100,000 unsecured bail. A preliminary hearing is scheduled for Sept, 21, 2006, at 10 a.m., before Magisterial District Judge Blair.
The case will be prosecuted in Fayette County by Senior Deputy Attorney General Anthony J. Krastek.
Corbett noted that this is the first criminal case being brought by the Attorney General's Elder Abuse Unit, which was created in July 2006 to address the growing number of crimes and scams targeted at Pennsylvania's nearly two-million seniors.
"The sole mission of the Elder Abuse Unit is to investigate and prosecute all forms of abuse of the elderly, including financial exploitation, physical abuse and sexual assault," Corbett said. "Just as the Attorney General's Office has developed an expertise in fighting drug dealers with prosecutors and narcotics agents who focus solely on drug investigations, the single purpose of prosecutors and the agents of the Elder Abuse Unit will be to pursue those who prey on our senior citizens."
(A person charged with a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty.)

The Ducati Streetfighter looks like a crashed 1098 superbike but packs so much presence and attitude it works standing still. It needs to because at £13,995 for the S-version we rode here, it has a hell of a lot of competition on its hands in one of the biggest-growing classes in the UK. Ducati claim it's the lightest bike in the ...

If you want a cruiser because it attracts attention then the Yamaha XVZ1300A Royal Star certainly does the job. With a V-Max motor ( detuned of course ) Tonka Toy bodywork and a gnat's bollock of ground clearance, the Yamaha XVZ1300A Royal Star is something truly different from the typical 90s V-twin Harley tribute act.
1192cc, 86bhp, 125mph, Insurance group 15
Believe it or not, but you can still buy an 80s classic Hesketh V1000 motorcycle, brand new, made in small numbers by Broom Engineering. The original Hesketh V1000 was hailed as the saviour of the British industry back in 1981, but this heavy, rather touring orientated V-twin motorcycle was - and still is - an acquired taste. From 2004 onwards, the Hesketh ...

MZ is trying something different with its parallel twin 1000S and Streetfighter, but it lacks the X factor and doesn't have the kind of dealer/distributor back-up you need when buying a slightly oddball motorbike. Decent to ride, and the Streetfighter version looks more appealing than the 80s style S model, but hasn't really got anything novel or unique about it.
1225cc, 121bhp, 160mph, Insurance group 17
Guzzi go modern. While most of their bikes trade on heritage, style and charisma the MGS-01 has a high-tech 21st century chassis with an intelligently updated version of the V-twin engine that's at the heart of the brand. It's only available as a race bike but we're hopeful of a road version soon.
1170cc, 105bhp, 130mph, Insurance group 14
It's hard, objectively, to see the point of the BMW HP2. It's a 105bhp, 175kg off-roader that costs almost £11,000. Yes, it does have some clever technology like air suspension, but on the flip side its use as a road bike is limited, which is why the factory now offers free 17-inch rims and tyres with each new HP2.

Should India invest more in less-favored areas?:
AbstractDeveloping countries have to allocate limited government resources for rural areas among different investment activities and regions to achieve the twin goals of productivity growth and poverty alleviation. This is particularly important at a time when many countries are facing severe financial constraints. This paper develops a framework and provides empirical evidence on the impact of government investments in technology, irrigation, education and infrastructure on agricultural productivity growth and rural poverty reduction in rural India. The results reveal that government investments in more favored areas played significant roles during the green revolution period. But the marginal returns from additional government investments in these areas have declined in more recent years. It is now the less-favored areas where marginal returns are higher. This result has important policy implications for where government investments should be targeted in order to achieve further productivity growth and rural poverty reductions.

Pond Hockey Classic draws crowds to Meredith
"We were champs for two years, that's pretty good," said Bill Neer of Moultonborough, a member of the Locals, as he watched the Broots Magoots receive their wooden cup trophy for winning the Just-for-Fun Under-35 Division championship, which the Magoots won, 7-5.
The Magoots had set their sights on winning after losing in the semifinals last year.
"It's sweet," said Magoot Nate Gagne of Manchester.
Winning the Just-for-Fun Over-35 Division, the Pylons of Chelmsford, Mass., defeated the Bulldogs of Sudbury, Mass. by a score of 5-4.
In the 40-plus Division, the Bumbles of Laconia defeated the Kings of the South Shore, Mass., by a score of 7-2.
In the 50-plus division, the Essex 73s of Nashua defeated T's Pub of Boston by a score of 6-4.
In the 30-Plus Division, the Frozen Hacks of Franklin, Mass., defeated the West Coast Blasters of Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada, by a score of 9-6.
In the Open Division, the Ice Holes of Wakefield, Mass., won the trophy by defeating the Winnipesaukee Whalers of Meredith, 10-4.
In the Women's Division, the Eagles of Boston won the title, defeating Joe's Chicks of Laconia, 6-0.
Tournament organizer Scott Crowder said more teams will likely be added to the more than 200 that came to this year's tournament.
"From our perspective it was a great weekend being outside and playing hockey," Crowder said.

Greenwich's educational ranking within the state has been much discussed and speculated about over the last few years. Much of these rankings as based on standardized test results.
In regards to the pertinence of test results, Deputy Superintendent Dr. Ellen Flanagan said last March that when Greenwich students took sharp No. 2 pencils to test grids, "While standardized testing is not the only evaluation of an individual child's performance, it is an important measure of how well we are doing as a district or a school, or with a subgroup of students."
And the results are in.
Last month the Connecicut State Department of Education (CDE) released the results of the 2012 Connecticut Academic Performance Test (CAPT) and the Connecticut Mastery Test (CMT).
Superintendent of Schools Dr. William S. McKersie said, "In our initial review of the results of the 2012 CMT and CAPT assessments, we are pleased to see improvements in virtually every grade level (3-8, 10), assessment area (Reading, Writing, Math & Science), and achievement level (Proficiency, Mastery, and Advanced)."
McKersie went on to credit the village it takes to achieve these improvements. "These successes reflect many years of dedicated work and we applaud the staff of the Greenwich Public Schools, the supportive families, and of course, our students. Our objective now is to sustain and build upon these successes."
While many stakeholders and taxpayers take note of Greenwich's "ranking" versus other similar and not so similar districts, the priority for parents and students should be their own individual scores.
As in the past, a hard copy of individual test results will be mailed home to parents some time in September, but thanks to the newly launched Greenwich Public Schools Parent Portal, will have access to the results sooner.
Last spring, the district launched access to the Parent Portal giving parents the ability to view their children's test scores and other pertinent information right at their fingertips. Following on the successful implementation of both student and staff portals, the district embarked on a beta-testing of the new parent portal last fall with a small group of parents. The full launch occurred at the end of April.
Similar to the other portals, the Parent Portal provides access to information on individual students, which should be especially useful to parents of secondary students. In fact, probably more than your student would like you to know!
What Information Is Available?
- General Information - Pre-k - grade 12
- Daily Attendance - grades 6-8
- Class Period Attendance - grades 9-12
- Progress Grades - grades 6-12 (CMS, WMS and GHS)
- Marking Period Grades - grades 6-8
- Academic Schedule - grades 6-12
- Homework - grades 6-12
- CMT Test Results - grades 3-8
- CAPT Test Results - grade 10
- DRP Test Results - grades 2-8
According the the Director of Technology for GPS Janice Gunnip, the Parent Portal will re-open for business when school starts on August 28th.
Gunnip says that "885 families utilized the portal during the 2011-2012 school year." Her hope is to significantly increase that number this year.
To this end, a Parentlink message will be disseminated again, informing parents of the opportunity. The department has a goal of implementing "the capability of a second parent login." when we open school. "We are committed to transparency," states Gunnip with the driver being "the educational support of students."
Parents play a significant role in that educational support and PTA Council President Lisa Beth Savitz states that "parents have long advocated for more accessible information, their own children's assessment results as well as broader data. The Parent Portal is a welcome development which we hope will provide timely and complete details about student performance. Communication like the Portal is a key component of family involvement, a cornerstone of national PTA's vision for student success."
What Happens Next With The Information?
Back to the test scores, administrators and teachers across the district are focused on utilizing the results released this summer to adjust, drive and concentrate on areas that need strengthening at every level, student, class, school and district. "The results of these tests help us determine where teachers and schools need to focus their improvement efforts," said Flanagan.
"Analyzing assessments such as the CMT's is an important first step in identifying areas of refinement for the coming school year. At Glenville School, as part of our initial back to school agenda, each teacher will analyze their incoming class' CMT scores to help guide future instructional decisions," explained Glenville School Principal Marc D'Amico.
School and instructional aata teams throughout Greenwich schools are undertaking this practice. And the efforts of teachers and administrators don't stop after one look at the scores. "These results are then reviewed continually through our instructional, and school, data team process," said D'Amico.
Results are also used as motivators. "Not only are the scores used to identify areas of focus but to highlight past successes and to celebrate the hard work and efforts of our students and faculty," said D'Amico.
The Annual Achievement Report will present the CMT, CAPT and other assessment data to the Board of Education at its first meeting of the school year on August 30 at Greenwich Town Hall.
Parents may utilize resources available on the CDE website to assist in deciphering the test results:
For CMT, click here
For CAPT, click here
The CDE also maintains an portal called the Connecticut Education Data and Research (CEDaR) portal, providing longitudinal data in the form of District and School Snapshots, Data Tables and agency publications such as the Strategic School Profiles and data bulletins.
A useful site for parents to visit is by eMetrics which provides CMT and CAPT results for CT.

25" 14-Pocket Wheeled Duffel 1 1
Very good bag I have this bag in blue and the red. I just used the Blue bag for a trip to Madagascar in July. Rugged material, but with great packing. I don't use packing cubes generally because they can take up precious weight and space (the fewer folds, the more space) but they certainly can be used with this bag. I was limited to 28 pounds/28" because of small plane trips on the Island so this lighter weight soft bag was perfect. I pack non-essentials in the outer pockets saving inner organized packing for essentials. The outer pockets hold so much and the organization inside the bag is wonderful. Mine came with a plastic zip bag for liquids. This is a great bag to have for that special trip that tells you WEIGHT and SPACE LIMIT at the last minute! August 19, 2014

This chicken is FABULOUS!!!! Try it - you'll love it!!!
Spicy Basque-Style Chicken

lioness1219 Posted: 10/26/09
This was easy to make and had a nice, bold taste. Perfect weeknight dinner
Ellen22 Posted: 12/31/08
Delicious, and just the right spiciness, but I would omit the olives next time for sure.
oduamy Posted: 08/31/09
This recipe was AWESOME! I made it exactly as written (using 2 cans of regular Rotel). It was plenty spicy - we love heat and it had a zip! The prosciutto and olives were awesome in it. Will make this again for sure!
jkjones864 Posted: 02/17/09
I really enjoyed this receipe. I will definitely be making this again. It is spicy but not too over powering.
alifiner76 Posted: 02/08/09
I tried this with the other suggestions-added garlic and used diced tomatoes with jalapenos and still thought it was bland. Next time, I'll try adding in chili powder and add in a fresh serrano or jalapeno pepper. I served this with a spanish rice side dish.
Kristys4 Posted: 02/04/11
Delicious! Adults and children loved it. Definitely serve over saffron rice like suggested.. lots of juice. Perfect amount for 2 adults and 2 teenagers.
ToniGardner Posted: 05/24/11
This is now a favorite of mine and my husband. Easy and fast! Great blend of tastes! The second time I used cilantro instead of parsley and it was awesome. I love to cook and try new recipes and this is one that will keep my going back to my Cooking Light for more!
esaarela Posted: 09/23/12Irvine, CA
This is an easy, quick and flavorful dish. It's a perfect weeknight dinner.
lestrada Posted: 06/30/12
I make this fairly often and it's a huge favorite! Easy & fast, but I would love to see a recipe that uses fresh ingredients.
nbalter1 Posted: 01/27/14
We've been making this since 2008 and we still LOVE it. It's easy and super tasty. Even our kids eat the chicken (and they also gobble up the left over prosciutto from the package, I must admit.) Rice or orzo work well for soaking up the sauce.

PERFECT MATCH (4.5) by Dara Girard: Attorney Hannah Olaniyi is trying to grow her practice and help her family financially. After a disagreement with her sister, Hannah retreats to a park where she can cry in peace. Never one to see a woman cry, Amal Harper swoops in and tries to make Hannah smile. Turns out, Hannah is the answer to his own legal woes and the two put their heads together in an effort to solve each other's problems. Girard's writing is inspirational and poetic, with one-liners that will stick with readers long after the they reach the final page. The characters are rich with depth, and it is a nice change to see both lead characters learn how to handle a relationship maturely.

Springfield (AP) -- A former Illinois Department of Corrections accountant has pleaded
guilty to embezzling around $77,000 from an association formed to memorialize
prison workers killed on the job.
Mary Ann Bohlen pleaded guilty Wednesday in Springfield to two counts of mail fraud and
two counts of embezzlement.
Bohlen faces up to 20 years in prison on each fraud count and up to 10
on each embezzlement count.
Federal prosecutors say the 46-year-old Edinburg woman embezzled money from various
funds over four years starting in 2007. That included some $50,000 from the
Illinois Correctional Employees Memorial Association.
Defense attorney Daniel Fultz says his client is remorseful. He says she
has no previous criminal record and felt financially squeezed because she had
to care for her ailing mother.

Will I be ready to practice Collaborative Law after attending an initial Collaborative Training?
Our initial Collaborative Training is essential to start practicing in the Collaborative Law process, but no Basic Collaborative training can teach everything. We believe that our Basic Collaborative Law Training is the most advanced of its kind available, and it exceeds the requirements of the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals (IACP) Minimum Standards for Basic Collaborative Law Training. The IACP Minimum Standards for Collaborative Practitioners requires that practitioners attend a Basic Training, and also at least one thirty hour training in client-centered facilitative conflict resolution of the kind typically taught in mediation training (interest-based, narrative, or transformative mediation programs), and fifteen hours of additional training. We strongly recommend that newer practitioners obtain this additional training and initially limit their work to less complex cases. We also highly recommend ongoing continuing education.
Do you provide written materials at your trainings?
Participants at our trainings receive written materials applicable to that training. Those who attend our Basic Training receive a comprehensive manual on practicing Collaborative Law and a CD with valuable handouts, checklists, and forms.
Are your trainings eligible for CLE or CEU credits?
Most of our trainings are approved for CLE and CEU credits. Please see the individual program descriptions for details. For Washington lawyers, we report CLE credits to the Washington State Bar Association. Non-lawyers and lawyers from other states must report their own attendance. We normally provide all attendees at our programs a certificate of attendance.
Do your programs start and end on time? What if I want to arrive late or leave early?
To ensure accurate reporting of continuing education credits and to maximize the value of our programs, we start and end our programs at the scheduled times. We try to make every minute count, so our trainings are chockablock full of valuable information. We strongly recommend that you schedule yourself to be able to attend the entire training.
May I video or audio record trainings?
Sorry, video and audio recording is not allowed. Exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis for unusual circumstances.
If I am not able to make the training, may I request a refund?
Of course. For cancellations received at least three days before a training, tuition will be refunded in full less a $50 processing fee. No refunds will be made for cancellations received after three days prior to training, but you are free to send someone in your place.
Are discounted hotel rooms available?
We sometimes make arrangements with our venues to have discounted hotel rooms available. Contact us to find out if discounted rooms are available for your training.
What food is included in the trainings?
A few light refreshments are usually provided at our trainings, such as light snacks in the morning and afternoon. Meals are on your own. Feel free to bring your own snacks if you have food allergies or special dietary needs.
May I transfer my tuition from one training to another training?
Due to administrative limitations, tuition may not be transferred from one training to another training. However, you are free to send someone else in your place. A refund (less a $50 processing fee) is available if you cancel within the time frame listed in our policies.
Are all your trainings in Seattle?
Seattle is our home base, and our trainings in Seattle are self-produced. We can train anywhere in the world, and would be delighted to bring a training to your community. Please contact us to discuss how to make that happen.

What if, in a fine morning, you learn, "There's nothing called God"!
Gods exist from 'god knows how many millenniums'. And they come to mankind as virtual beings time to time: promising heaven and hell and with sets of instructions to be followed - differing according to the religions they propose. We all, except for a few, are so dependent on them for our everyday life - trying to find a purpose of our existence, some meaning of what we call life. History is full of wars to establish 'the true god'. And, as of today, there's no sign that this will come to an end any time soon. So, we are born with a specific religion as our birth right and we fight till death trying to do --- what....
What if, in a fine morning, you come to learn that there is actually no entity such as 'god'. That, the concept is no more necessary to live a nice life on this earth...
What might be the first thing in your mind...

Aug 18 2012: Yes, we are all only humans and without the benefit of omniscience; however, I do not agree that lacking such perfect faculty null-and-voids the endeavor of understanding God. God made us in His image and likeness, even if He is fictitious, (which I highly doubt for personal reasons I'll disclose soon), wouldn't you rather aim or life and behavior at perfection than anything less?
When I said Catholicism came first, I meant as opposed to Protestantism. I correct myself, Historically, other religions came first the origins of which we may never know (what of Neanderthals or our direct ancestors in their nomadic/"caveman" age) ; however, there is an interesting progression leading into Jesus Christ: I allude specifically to Socrates, without him and Aristotle, some of the Philosophies/teachings of Jesus would never have caught on with the Gentiles. It is an interesting set-up.
Now here comes my cornerstone, my reason I believe in God. Without this simple fact, I would become atheist.
You speak of religion as a whole and many gods. I want to address what they all have in common (except for one, I know you saw that coming, hehe), namely each god has a name. I don't know many, but even reckoning all the way to the Mesopotamians, their god's had names. One common belief that to a certain extent remains today is that when you know the name of something or someone, you can call upon it to perform favors or bend it to your will. This was a strong belief in Ancient Egypt.
Moses was raised as an Egyptian and would have held the same belief. So when he was met with the burning bush, quite frankly he had no interest in listening to it, that is to return to Egypt. He tried all that he could to evade the demands of this phenomenon. But ultimately the fire called God won. Why? The last question Moses asks of the immolation is "Whom shall I say sent me?" This was a trick. Moses believed, if he knew the name of the entity before him, he could control it. (Continued...)

Micro 4/3rds strikes again, Canon smokes Nikon (new top selling DSLRs update)
Time for a new snapshot of the top selling DSLRs/iLCs at Amazon. If this is the first time you see this, be sure to read the About/FAQ page first!
The attack of the Micro Four Thirds discounts
Micro Four Thirds has launched a new chart-attack thanks mainly to new Olympus discounts. As part of a Mother's Day week-long promotion, the three Olympus E-PL1 w/14-42mm kits are selling for $550 instead of the usual price of $600. This is the lowest new-in-box mirrorless iLC out there at the moment.
Then, the E-P2 with the 14-42mm lens and the viewfinder kit has dropped to $900, which is the same price as the kit without the viewfinder. Guess which one people will buy :-)
And then there's the drip-drip trickle-down of the Panasonic GF1 prices. The days of outages are long gone, and both kits are steadily available for willing buyers. It is interesting to note that while both of them started at $900, the GF1+14-45mm kit has dropped to around $750, while the GF1+pancake has drawn the line around $860.
A total of five M43rds cameras are in the Top 25, four of which are in the Top 20, and three of those in the Top 15. Not bad! But this is because of the discount-helium - can they sustain it?
Canon smokes Nikon
Historically if you look at the Top 25 Archives, the Canon vs Nikon model-count in the Top 25 is relatively close, typically with Canon having a slight lead. But the trend has been for Nikon to slip further away, and in this edition, it is a 13-5 blowout as sports fans would say. That's over 2.5-to-1 ratio!
A number of factors affect this type of thing, with prices and availability being major factors, but the ratio should be raising a nano-alarm for Nikonians.
Top 25 Vitals
+ Canon vs Nikon: 13-5 (Canon smokes Nikon!)
+ # of non-CaNiKoNs: seven
+ # of 35mmFF: two
+ # of non-DSLRs: five
+ # of cameras at/over $1000: six
+ # of cameras at/under $500: two
+ # of price upticks vs downticks: 4-8 (there is movement)
+ # of unique cameras in the top 25: 15

LONDON - Chelsea captain John Terry has been ruled out of the Club World Cup due to ongoing injury troubles.
The defender damaged ligaments in his right knee a month ago and Chelsea manager Rafa Benitez says the long flight to Japan wouldn't help his recovery.

Is all press good press? No, apparently not when it's christened you a 'vampire squid'. $GS cites "adverse publicity" as one of the risk factors to its business:
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) added something new to the laundry list of financial risks it faces: unflattering attention.
In its annual report, the New York company said "adverse publicity" could have "a negative impact on our reputation and on the morale and performance of our employees, which could adversely affect our businesses and results of operations."
The unusual disclosure in a 12-page section of "risk factors" ranging from rocky financial markets to natural disasters is the latest sign of Goldman's whipping-boy status among rivals, lawmakers and angry Americans because of the firm's giant profits.
Personally, we'd like $GS a whole lot better if Blankfein (or at least his mouthpiece/spokesmodel Lucas van Praag) just flipped two middle fingers to the haters – it'd make it look like they have less to hide.
But, dropping a bomb like this in their annual report probably means we're going to see the opposite of that. What do you want to see out of a Kinder, Gentler Goldman? Maybe Blankfein could stick flowers in Ben Bernanke's printing press? Or MDs could start handing out Momofuku calamari in Battery Park? Or maybe they could start small and try wearing jeans to the office on Fridays or something. I dunno.

Since it's currently the craze for everyone involved with hockey to offer up their opinions on the upcoming Olympic rosters, well, I just had to throw in my two cents.
Today, I'll look at Team Canada.
First and foremost, let's just assume that Steven Stamkos is a no-go with his broken leg.
Therefore, my top line for Canada would be:
Jamie Benn–Sidney Crosby–Claude Giroux
With Stamkos out, the best replacement in my eyes is Dallas Stars stud Jamie Benn. Yahoo sports only has him listed at 6'2″ 205, but he plays much bigger than that. Not only does he have 32 points in 36 games so far this season, but he is a load to handle down low. Hard to get the puck off this guy and yet he also boasts good wheels and fantastic hands. Benn is a perfect compliment in my eyes to the smaller Crosby and Giroux.
Line two:
John Tavares—Ryan Getzlaf—Corey Perry
With 39 points in 38 games, Tavares is simply a beast. He is a top-10 player that unfortunately doesn't get the press he deserves playing on a struggling Islanders team. There are other candidates to play the left side of the Getzlaf and Perry combo. Rick Nash and Matt Duchene come to mind, but these two don't make the cut for me. Neither seems to really stand out this year when it comes to leadership roles with their clubs.
Line three:
Logan Couture—Jonathan Toews—Patrick Sharp
This would be my shut down line. Couture and Toews are two of the best two-way centers in the league and Sharp has some chemistry with Toews in Chicago. I would keep Boston Bruins center Patrice Bergeron waiting in the wings in case Sharp isn't pulling his weight, but this is how I would start.
Line four:
Martin St. Louis—Joe Thornton—Brent Burns
St. Louis and Thornton at 37 points and 40 points respectively, are both amongst the top-8 amongst Canadian forwards in scoring. Thornton is fourth overall and leads the NHL in assists with 35, it'd be simply nuts to leave either of these two out of the starting lineup. As for the right wing on this line, well, this is where you might call me a homer. Personally, I'd go with Brent Burns over any candidate you could come up with who is a left-handed shot. Thornton works best with at least one wing owning a right-handed trigger. Not to mention Thornton has been paired with Burns for the majority of this season and down the stretch last year for San Jose. While there are other right-handed options here including Tyler Seguin, Jordan Eberle, Jazon Spezza, none of them bring the sheer size and strength that Brent Burns gives this line.
Line five (reserves)
Rick Nash—Patrice Bergeron—Tyler Seguin
Nash has had international experience with both Thornton and Crosby, Bergeron has all the intangibles you could ask for, and Seguin has chemistry going with Stars teammate Jamie Benn.
D Pairs
1. Drew Doughty—Duncan Keith
While I'm a big fan of chemistry, there are simply too many Canadian defenseman who are more useful than Brent Seabrook.
2. Marc-Edouard Vlasic—Shea Weber
One of those defenseman more useful than Seabrook is the Sharks' Vlasic, arguably the best in the league in stick positioning. Vlasic and Weber creates Canada's shut-down duo.
3. Jay Bouwmeester—Alex Pietrangelo
They've played together in St. Louis, this pairing is rather a slam dunk.
4 (reserves) P.K. Subban—Brent Seabrook.
Subban won the Norris, Seabrook has chemistry with Keith.
Roberto Luongo, Cam Ward, Carey Price.
Goaltenders are unpredictable, flip a coin each night.

My husband suffers from Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS). This condition causes him to uncontrollably move his legs. It used to keep him up at night, and wake him up once asleep. As you can imagine, this would lead to some pretty cranky days on his part. And to top it off, sometimes the symptoms would occur during the daytime, making it difficult for him to sit for long periods of time (ie, during travel or in meetings at work).
The good news is, he is no longer suffering from RLS! For the last few months he has been putting a couple of drops of doTERRA Lavender essential oil on the back of his knees and bottoms of his feet and it takes the symptoms away almost immediately!
There is no known cause for Restless Leg Syndrome. It is suspected that an imbalance of the chemical in the brain called dopamine may cause the muscle movement. Stress and anxiety can worsen the condition.
Because restless leg syndrome can result in a decreased quality of sleep, this can lead to daytime sleepiness, anxiety or depression, and confusion or slowed thought processes.
Prescription medications for RLS, such as Requip (ropinirole), originally developed for Parkinson's disease, can cost $60 a month! Not to mention the side effects -faintness, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, drowsiness and "intense urges." A Mayo Clinic study revealed that compulsive gambling appeared in participants who took ropinirole when they had no previous history of gambling.
When the best cure medical science has to offer is worse than the disease, it is time to look for other treatments.
RLS is a whole body ailment that requires a multidisciplinary approach. Reduce or eliminate contributing factors from the diet–such as alcohol and caffeine. Get some exercise. Walk three times a week for at least 30 minutes. Make sure you are eating a well balanced diet with plenty of whole food nutrients.
Place 2-3 drops Lavender, Roman Chamomile, Serenity blend, Ylang Ylang, or Marjoram on your pillow, under your nose, on temples and back of neck, or in a diffuser. This will help you get to sleep and stay asleep.
Blend 3-4 drops of any of the oils below with a several drops of Fractionated Coconut oil (carrier oil), and massage into the leg from the top of the area of concern down. This can be done daily to keep episodes away, or when episodes occur.
Lavender – over 200 different uses. Sedative, pain killer, antibiotic, antidepressant, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, and many more.
AromaTouch blend (basil, grapefruit, cypress, marjoram, peppermint, and lavender) - relax muscles, calm tension, soothe irritated tissue, increase circulation
Serenity blend (Lavender, sweet marjoram, roman chamomile, ylang ylang, sandalwood and vanilla bean) - calming properties which create a sense of well-being and relaxation
Deep Blue – (Wintergreen, camphor, peppermint, blue tansy, blue chamomile, helichrysum and osmanthus) ease achy joints and sore muscles. Its effects are deep and penetrating with sustained results.
Vetiver – balancing, grounding, soothing, calming, used to treat muscle spasms, sleep aid, muscle pain, extreme anxiety. Natural and effective alternative to ADD/ADHD medications.
Roman Chamomile - Because of its calming and relaxing properties it can help with anxiety, depression, insomnia and the related concerns. It is mild enough to use with children (dilute with a carrier) to calm in distressed situations as well as for a high fever, earaches, teething, and to help with tummy aches. Because of the varied chemical compounds, Roman Chamomile has a broad range of applications including allergies, burns, diarrhea, nausea, psoriasis, and sprains, among others.

Best backup practices and recovering lost data.
Backup and Recovery
How can I eliminate duplicates before I do a backup?
Episode 1058
Val wants to offload his data onto one large drive and "de-duplicate" his files. Leo says there are a number of programs that can do it, but it's something that makes him nervous because they have the potential to eliminate what it thinks is a duplicate when it isn't. A better way is to scan the contents with a redunancy check. Leo says that SyncToy is a good one.
Leo says he can keep the old drive anyway. Drives are cheap, so he could just use that as a backup.
How can I backup and organize my photos?
Episode 1058
Armand is a photographer and he's constantly backing up his images and is afraid he's going to lose data. Leo says that it's a constant battle with photographers, which is why he recommends having a 3-2-1 backup strategy. Three backups, on two different forms of media, with one off site.
How can I get recovery disks for an old PC?
Episode 1058
Jason has an old HP computer running Windows Vista, with no recovery disks. Leo says Jason could contact HP and ask them to send him recovery disks for a nominal fee. Or, Jason can go to Newegg and pick up an OEM version of Windows 7 and install it cleanly. Leo hates it that PC makers don't give recovery disks anymore.
How do I build a network attached storage solution?
Episode 1056Phillip from
Phillip would like to create network attached storage. Leo likes Synology's 4 bay Nas's, there's also Netgear's ReadyNAS. Or, you can built your own with OpenNAS and FreeNAS.
How can I back up text messages on my iPhone?
Episode 1056
Terri has a ton of text messages over the last five years on her iPhone that she'd like to get onto her computer. Leo says that it's more than just texts, it's also images. First, Leo says she should backup her phone. Then get a program called iExplorer, by Macroplant. It will not only get her music, but also will allow her to export text messages to PDF, along with images. It'll also save voicemails.
How can I transfer my files from one PC to another?
Episode 1056
Zach needs a new computer and wants to know how he can transfer all his music, videos, and images. He has thousands of pictures and a lot of duplicates. He also has a backup drive, but he's not sure it always backs up. Leo suggests just dragging the documents and settings folder over to the external drive. That will get everything.
How can I clone multiple computers on one drive?
Episode 1055Bill from
Bill bought a Seagate 4TB hard drive and wants to do a mirrored backup with two different computers. Leo says to just make four folders and do the mirror into each folder. No need to partition, but he should just remember that he'll need to periodically back it up to make sure he's getting the new data.
Imaging options include:
Why does Windows bug me about backing up when I already do?
Episode 1055
Satvir is getting notifications from Windows to backup his hard drive, even though he uses a third party backup program. Leo says that's a setting in Windows Security Center. He should click on the house with the pennant in the tray, go into the settings and then turn it off.
What's the best external hard drive for backing up my Mac?
Episode 1055Joe from
Joe just got a new iMac and wants to know what external hard drive would be best use as a back up, USB 3.0 or Thunderbolt? Leo says that Thunderbolt drives are few and very expensive. He doesn't really need that. USB 3 is more than fast enough and very affordable. And they're formatted to be read on Mac and PC.
Could I use RAID 0 for backup?
Episode 1052
Tom bought an iMac and a GTech RAID drive, but he realized it runs RAID 0. Leo says RAID 0 means it has two discs linked for performance and speed. It's also known as "scary RAID" because it's twice as likely to fail. If he's using it just for basic backup, then it's fine. Drobo does a simulated RAID 5, but Leo isn't sure Tom needs all that.

If you want blood, you've got it... Horror movies, gory ephemera, video nasties and exploitation media.
John Dies at the End
From Don Coscarelli, creator of Phantasm and BubbaSHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY
It's a drug that promises an out-of-body experience with each hit. On the street they call it Soy Sauce, and users drift across time and dimensions. But some who come back are no longer human. Suddenly a silent otherworldly invasion is underway, and mankind needs a hero. What it gets instead is John and David, a pair of college dropouts who can barely hold down jobs. Can these two stop the oncoming horror in time to save humanity? No. No, they can't.

German-American Citizens League of Greater Cincinnati
Deutsch-Amerikanische Bürger-Liga von Gross-Cincinnati
The History of the German Heritage Museum
In 1995, the descendants of the Philip Feist family of Delhi Township approached the German-American Citizens' League with an offer to donate their family homestead. It is estimated that the original log home was built around 1840. In the interest of preserving German-American history, the GACL decided that turning the log house into a museum would be both a way to preserve the house itself and a method to create a venue to maintain the German heritage of Cincinnati. The house was disassembled and brought to West Fork Park in Monfort Heights in Green Township. It is in this park that the treasured home of the Feist family has evolved to become the German Heritage Museum.
Join The Friends
The FGHM invites the support of all who are interested in the German Heritage Museum and wish to ensure its continued success for future generations. We strongly encourage all those interested in the German Heritage Museum to become a member of the FGHM!
Friends of the Museum may also wish to volunteer as guides at the Museum or assist in locating items of German-American heritage for donation to the Museum.

The German Heritage Museum
The German Heritage Museum serves as a focal point in presenting and displaying German-American culture. This museum is the first of its kind in the region and a testament to the many contributions German immigrants and their descendants have made in the growth of the Ohio Valley and America. The museum focuses especially on representing the history of German-Americans in the Greater Cincinnati area, which became and remains one of the major German-American centers in the United States. In addition, displays showcase the activities of the organizations currently under the umbrella of the German-American Citizens' League of Greater Cincinnati.

Lindsay and I have sex on the banister next to our staircase. Starting off from behind, and then with her lying on her back. Complete with close ups of the penetration as requested by one of our fans.
