A friend of mine bought a different book for me - and it scared me to death! I was terrified after flipping through the pages of some crazy author telling me what a bad person i am if i don't breast feed, if i request and epidural and so forth. THIS BOOK IS KEEPING ME SANE! the beauty of this book is that they tell you the whole story with no slant and no hidden hippy agenda- and let you decide what is best for you and your baby. they do not hide the ugly truths about what can go wrong - but they discuss such topics gently and always give future references for if you want more information on the scary topics. nothing is sugar coated - but you get the sense that someone is on OUR side, and understands just how hard this is for a new mom who has no idea what to expect. it helped my sister 9 years ago, and it the revised addition is helping me now. i can't say enough good about it.

I have the 2005 version and when I 1st found out I was pregnant it was a great help! But then I read other pregnancy book and found that some of the information is wrong and not too helpful. Doesn't have a lot of the subjects I needed. I would recommend for a 1st time mother but borrow it from someone or even the library...

Great Gift!!
By Brayden's Mom
from Richlands, NC
About Me Casual Reader
Comments about Levy Home Entertainment What To Expect When You're Expecting:
My husband got this book for me the day after I found out I was pregnant. Being my first pregnancy, I had no idea what to expect and this book helped so much!! It doesn't sugar coat pregnancy or labor and delivery. It is very informative and a little quirky. If I had a weird symptom or any question, I first turned to the book... then called my doctor. This book is very easy to reference, and like another review says.. there is a section for spouses too. I would recommend this book to anyone, even if you are a parent already because every pregnancy is different.
Comment on this review
A very good book!!
By Blair
from Dallas, Tx
I received this book as a gift from my grandma when i was a 11 weeks pregnant and i think it's a great book! It really helped me to understand what was going on as a new mom. I even went back to it with my second pregnancy. I loved the pictures and how it showed you what was normal. It was even helpful that it had a section on understanding miscarriage, since i have had two. I've even recommended this book to my friend's that are having a baby too.
great for 1st-time moms
By Jolly
from MD
I would recommend this specially to first-time parents like me. It has a month-month and week per week description of what you should expect during those stages.I shouldn't have attended the childbirth classes because almost all of the topics are in this book, well except the "real" practice of breathing techniques. I rarely call my OB-GYN too because it contains Q&A portion about the common problems u experience during pregnancy.I can't compare this with other pregnancy books since this is the only book I've read [but I also suggest that you subscribe to other preg-related sites to get aadtl monthly info]. =)
By Nathan's mom
from Houston, Tx
I think this has been the best pregnancy book EVER!!! Everyone who has negative comments about this book is out of their mind!!!! It tells you everything you need to know to prepare you from before you get prego till the end when baby arrives!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love this book I would definitely recommend to anyone!!!!!!!! I have absolutely NO NEGATIVE COMMMENTS about it!!!!!!!!!!

Candy- coated
By mom of three
from Indiana
About Me Bookworm
Candy coated and doesn't prepare you for actual labor or child birth. And what about what your least expecting when your expecting? A pregnant woman needs to be informed, and also needs to feel comfortable with her body (if she doesn't already) and know the power of her body. I felt like this book was preparing women for scheduled c-sections, induced birth and/or epidurals. I would recommend reading "A Guide to Childbirth" by Ina May Gaskin, or really anything else other than this book.

always recommended- not worth the money
By elsie mom
from princeton NJ
About Me Everyday Reader
It's always recommended, and so the expectations were high. I found that the information week by week in pregnancy was interesting but not helpful. For example, does it really help you to know that your baby is now the size of a tomato? Medical information and recommendations are avoided, and practical information is replaced with cutsey factoids.Get this one at the library or used online. There are many other fantastic books out there that are more helpful resources for your money.
Very nice layout and information
By Misa's a Mommie
from Kissimmee, FL
I received this book as a gift from my mom when I first found out. While I haven't finished the book yet, I still enjoy it. I'm nearly 8 weeks pregnant, and so far it has had a lot of useful information. I read some of these reviews saying it focuses too heavily on the negatives, but I really don't think that's true. It is vitally important to me as a first time mommie-to-be, to know all the risks associated with the pregnant lifestyle. As for the book itself, it is laid out really well. I am impressed with how informative it is, yet still very easy to undersand, even for people who know nothing of being a mom or medical terminology. The different sections of the book are clearly titles, and you are invited to simply skip over sections you know do not apply to you. For example, I don't smoke, so I can skip all of the sections warning against it during pregnancy. The book has a lot of useful info at the beginning, then there is a chapter for each month of pregnancy that describes how your baby is developing and things you need to know during that month. What my husband (and daddy-to-be) really enjoys is the chapter towards the end that is just for dads. He appreciated the section devoted to things he would need to know.

Great Book
By nessashirley
from Clayton, GA
This book was wonderful. I miscarried my first pregnancy, and anyone who has experienced that wants to hear the negatives not just the positives. Everyone else tries to make it like everything is always gonna be ok, but that's not the trust in every pregnancy. I think it's a great product, and people need the negatives, so when/if something goes wrong you can figure out what it is.

Angel: Billy
As he gives her lessons in swordplay so she can better defend herself in future battles, Angel (David Boreanaz) is surprised to learn that Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) is a quick study; she credits her years as a Sunnydale cheerleader. It's Fred (Amy Acker), however, who really needs to defend herself when a half-demon with the power to turn men into misogynist murderers turns Wesley (Alexis Denisof) into a clone of Jack Nicholson's character from The Shining. William "Billy" Blim (Justin Shilton) is the privileged nephew of a congressman. He's also the fiend Angel was forced to free from a hell dimension by Wolfram & Hart (see "That Vision Thing"). His very touch brings out the hidden woman-hater in every man, and Angel proves incapable of stopping the spread of his infectious magic. As a transformed Wesley stalks the resourceful Fred through the Hyperion Hotel, Cordy attempts to kill Billy. Angel stops her and Billy touches Angel, but the vampire hero proves impervious to the half-demon's magic. Combat erupts, but it's Lilah Morgan (Stephanie Romanov) -- who suffered a savage beating at the hands of the Billy-infected Gavin Park (Daniel Dae Kim) -- who ultimately defeats her own client. Later, Wesley grapples with the terror he inflicted on Fred and begs her forgiveness. Originally broadcast October 29, 2001, on the WB network, Angel: Billy marked season three, episode six of the supernatural comedy drama. The secret crush on Fred that Wesley nurses in this episode will have major plot repercussions throughout the second half of season three. ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

Angel: That Vision Thing
Beaurocratic Wolfram & Hart antagonist Gavin Park (Daniel Dae Kim, see "Over the Rainbow") brings an unlikely weapon to bear upon Angel (David Boreanaz) -- building-code violation notices for the Art Deco hotel the vampire detective calls home. Angel has more pressing issues to worry about, however; although Cordelia (Charisma Carpenter) is long accustomed to the pain that accompanies her visions, she begins to suffer increasingly dreadful -- and physical -- side effects. When The Host (Andy Hallett) uses his psychic abilities to find out why The Powers That Be would want to hurt their emissary, he learns that another Wolfram & Hart associate is actually behind Cordy's distress. With the help of a psychic (Kal Penn), Lilah Morgan (Stephanie Romanov), has jacked into Cordy's pipeline to the Powers and cranked the juice way, way up. Lilah agrees to cease the attack, but only if Angel will travel to a hell dimension and free a prisoner (Justin Shilton) who's a client of her evil law firm. Angel complies, but then kills the psychic and warns Lilah that she'll be next if she ever tries to harm Cordy again. Meanwhile, Darla (Julie Benz) consults with her South American shaman and learns that he can do nothing to halt her mysterious pregnancy. Originally broadcast October 1, 2001, on the WB network, "That Vision Thing" marked season three, episode two of the supernatural comedy drama. The Wolfram & Hart client whom Angel frees from captivity returns several episodes later in "Billy." ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Empty Places
As Xander (Nicholas Brendon) recovers at the hospital from having his eye gouged out by evil preacher Caleb (Nathan Fillion), Buffy (Sarah Michelle Gellar) licks her own wounds and deals with the emotional fallout of having dragged her friends and the potentials into an ambush. Meanwhile, the citizens of Sunnydale -- including friendly demon Clem (James C. Leary) -- stage a mass exodus from their apocalypse-plagued town. Stopping by the deserted high school to pick up her things, Buffy again encounters The First's bible-thumping minion. Once more Caleb proves stronger than the Slayer, but Buffy learns some valuable information in the process of getting her butt kicked. Meanwhile, Spike (James Marsters) and Andrew (Tom Lenk) gather additional intelligence when Giles (Anthony Stewart Head) sends them to the site of one of Caleb's earlier atrocities. Back in Sunnydale, the restless potentials get a break from their training when Faith (Eliza Dushku) takes them to the Bronze to blow off some steam. Things turn ugly, however, when sinister cops arrive to arrest -- or kill -- the fugitive slayer. When she learns of the incident, Buffy blows her top, but a surprisingly mature Faith keeps her cool. Later, at a huge strategy session at the house, Buffy tries to convince the others that it's imperative to stage another siege on Caleb's winery hideout. She gets shot down -- not just by the beleaguered potentials, but by Xander, Anya (Emma Caulfield), Willow (Alyson Hannigan), Principal Wood (D.B. Woodside) and even Dawn (Michelle Trachtenberg); Spike, Buffy's staunchest ally, is still on reconnaissance. Despite her protests that there's no democracy during wartime, General Buffy finds herself deposed by a popular uprising. As for Faith, she's thrust into the unlikely role of replacement leader while her tearful fellow slayer strikes out on her own. Originally broadcast April 29, 2003, on UPN, "Empty Places" marked episode 141 of the cult-favorite series. The band playing during this episode's Bronze sequence is none other than Nerf Herder, the group that penned Buffy's memorable theme song. ~ Brian J. Dillard, Rovi

Don't Let Go
Written and directed by Max Myers, Don't Let Go reflects on the musical past of siblings Jimmy Ray (Scott Wilson) and Billy Joe (Justin Shilton), who headed a rockabilly band called "The Texas Tumbleweeds" in the late '50s. Unfortunately, Jimmy Ray (Wilson) leaves the band for the bottle after his brother is murdered in a dispute over a woman. Forty years down the line, Jimmy Ray is an alcoholic and a distant father to his two children, young Billy Joe (Levi Kreis), and Johnny Blue (Brad Hawkins). At first, Jimmy Ray refuses to attend the concerts of his sons, who are burning up the rockabilly circuit themselves as leaders of "The Texas Two-Tones." The young band decides to hold a fundraiser in honor of the late Billy Joe (Shilton), and as a tribute to the 40 year anniversary of their father's former band. Though it seems that there is no chance of their father attending, Jimmy Ray happens upon his brother's old guitar in a junk shop and slings it over his shoulder in spite of himself. Don't Let Go also features Katharine Ross and Irma P. Hall. ~ Tracie Cooper, Rovi

Little Miss Sunshine
Add Little Miss Sunshine to Queue
Add Little Miss Sunshine to top of Queue
When a pudgy, bespectacled seven-year-old, Olive (Abigail Breslin), voices her desire to take home the coveted Little Miss Sunshine crown at an upcoming beauty pageant, her wildly dysfunctional family sets out on an interstate road trip to ensure her a clear shot at realizing her dreams in former music video directorial team Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris' quirky feature debut, starring Greg Kinnear, Steve Carell, and Toni Collette. Despite early career success as an outspoken motivational speaker, family patriarch Richard (Kinnear) continues to cling to his "Refuse to Lose" philosophy, much to the chagrin of his increasingly annoyed spouse, Sheryl (Collette). Add into the mix a Nietzsche-reading teenage son (Paul Dano) who has taken a vow of silence until he finds his fate as a fighter pilot; a horny, heroin-happy grandfather (Alan Arkin) with a penchant for creative profanity; and a suicidal genius (Carell) and Proust scholar still reeling about losing both his male lover and his MacArthur Foundation genius grant -- and the stage is set for a road trip in which sanity is sure to take the back seat. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

The human operates out of complex superiority demands, self -affirming through ritual, insiting upon a rational need to learn, striving for self-imposed goals, manipulating his environment while he denies his own adaptive abilities, never fully satisfied.

(I know I'm gonna' get some flack about the following titles, but c'mon, they do sound kinda' lame, don't they?)
Metal Gear Solid
Metal Gear Solid 3 - Snake Eater
Gotta' love that tag line. Hidden innuendos abound.
Metal Gear Solid 3 - Subsistence
Kojima must be the one choosing these 'barely used in every day conversational English' words. Can you ever think of a time that you used the word "subsistence" in a normal, every day conversation?
Final Fantasy -
Apparently, Square made so many sequels, side stories and spin-offs, that the Final Fantasy series will never have a "Final" Fantasy, especially since there are legions of fanboys and fangirls who implement the essence of Final Fantasy into their daily lives, living, breathing and excreting anything and everything related to "Final Fantasy". Plus, if you're an unlucky soul who talks bad about their beloved game series (most likely to be the more profound titles like VII, X or X-2) or a specific character (You said what about Aeris? What was that quip about Sephiroth's hair? *gasps in shock* ) you'll be flamed, insulted, possibly hexed and ultimately ignored by the aformentioned fanboys and fangirls.

I have been using FlowerBomb for a few years now and it's one of my favorites.. I am a perfume junkie and my favorites are L de Lolita Lempika, Flowerbomb, Jimmy Choo, Viva La Juicy, and D & G Light Blue.. Each one of these scents have their own distinct qualities. I usually wear the scent that suits my mood for the day, but I never go wrong with FlowerBomb. I tried it once as a sample and everyone at my job was asking me what I was wearing because they loved it. A few of them ran out and bought it for themselves. Don't let the name scare you because the last thing I like is a heavy flowery scent.. This is unique and beautiful and the way it lingers on your clothing is wonderful. Flowerbomb is for the lady who likes a nice classy scent because in my opinion this perfume has it!!!!! It's definitely pricey but I use it sparingly. I wear it to work but it's awesome for a night out on the town or for any occasion. Try it, even if it's just the rollerball, which I also have to put in my handbag... Enjoy this beautiful perfume, I do.

This is a unique fragrance...I have seen a lot of comparison to JLo's Still which is why I bought it but it is NOTHING like Still. I actually prefer the smell of flower bomb AFTER I've been wearing it for about an hour. This fragrance starts out very strong and smells like floral baby powder at first, but it really mellows nicely as you wear it. I don't wear it every day because of how it starts out. This perfume changes through out the day more than any other fragrance I've ever worn. If you don't like it at first, give it time...

However, the lack of a celebrity host doesn't mean some will not take the stage. Presenters announced include:
- Jake Gyllenhaal
- Kristen Bell
- Felicia Day
- Tony Hawk
- Tricia Helfer
- Alyssa Milano
- Zachary Quinto
- Mike Tyson
- Olivia Wilde
- Snoop Dog (performing)

Keighley – Halo Reach is "huge leap forward," will be 2010′s "biggest game by far"
Halo Reach's premiere at the VGAs next week will be a true, in-game showing of the title and looks set to debut 2010′s biggest game "by far," if Spike's Geoff Keighley's comments on the latest Major Nelson podcast are to be believed.
"At the VGAs we're actually going to be able to go down on the planet Reach and see this game for the first time," said the presenter.
"It's all going to be in-game stuff. This is not CG, this is not live action, like all the kids on Twitter are speculating. You're going to get a first glimpse of the world of Reach, which is phenomenal.
He added: "I think it's going to be the biggest game of next year by far. Folks loved ODST and thought it was great, but when people see the huge leap forward Bungie's taking with Reach… Everyone I've talked to that's been on the team and seen it is incredibly excited about that game."
Hot shit. These quotes are pretty much the first thing Keighley says in his segment. Listen to the file at about 1.18.
The VGAs take place on December 12.

Essential Reading: The history of Walt Disney's Imagineering?
It's no secret that Glenn is a BIG fan of Walt Disney. Disney has served as an inspiration for the direction he is headed in 2013. And while Disney may be best known for its theme parks, movies, and animation, it's another niche that Glenn has taken special interest in as he develops his American Dream Labs. Find out what it is HERE.
You won't believe what Glenn has planned for 2013 and beyond…
All this week on TheBlaze TV Glenn is unveiling his vision for the network for 2013 and beyond. Remember when Glenn left Fox News and many on the left and elsewhere predicted Glenn's demise? That claim has already been proven wrong and it's only the beginning. Wait until you see what Glenn has in store – the left will be begging for the day Glenn was only on 1 hour a day! Here is a little hint from Glenn on what you can expect this week.
Tonight's Primetime Lineup on TheBlaze TV
- 5pm ET - The Glenn Beck Program: Get the first look inside Glenn's American Dream Labs and what he has in store for 2013 and beyond…
- 6pm ET – Real News: There's already a sequel to the Fiscal Cliff, more on Obama's new cabinet selections, and a visit from Buck Sexton's 'Commie Bear.'
- 7pm ET – Wilkow!: Andrew talks about "Liberals and Gun Control".
- Watch live or on demand: Start your free trial now!
TheBlaze Radio Network: Listen to Jay Severin LIVE every weekday afternoon from 2-5pm ET on TheBlaze Radio. Check out the network's full lineup HERE.
"Ambition Inflation" is on the rise
If you've ever seen one of the bad American Idol auditions, it's pretty clear that the youth of America don't have a great sense of self. But, they didn't arrive here on their own. No, this is a group of kids that have been given participation trophies and told how wonderful and special they are their entire lives. How bad is it getting? Glenn has the details on radio.
Joy Behar cool with terror friendly al Jazeera, scared of Glenn Beck
No one has ever accused Joy Behar for being an intelligent lifeform. The reason for this is there is a very large mountain of evidence indicating her to be what some would describe as 'really really dumb'…to use the clinical terminology. On Leno last week Joy expressed no qualms with working for the terror friendly al Jazeera but she was really scared of Glenn Beck. Good thing for Joy both employers would likely fire her, so she doesn't have to worry about it. See Glenn's reaction HERE.
Glenn announces epic Misfits Ball
Despite billing himself as a uniter, "that guy" has alienated quite a few different groups of people. Whether it's the rich, anyone in the oil business, anyone in the Tea Party, anyone who listens to talk radio or Glenn Beck, anyone who is 'bitterly clinging' to God or their guns, a large chunk of the population has not been made to feel welcome by this administration. So, Glenn Beck has decided to hold a Misfits Ball during the inauguration celebration for all those who have been alienated by "that guy" in the Oval Office. Glenn announces what is sure to be an epic party on radio today.

By Gary D. Robertson The Associated Press
RALEIGH - Republican leaders who secured majorities in both chambers of the North Carolina legislature for the first time in 140 years after the 2010 elections appear poised to preserve much of those gains in 2012, thanks in part to redistricting.
The GOP surged at the right time two years ago. Its reward was holding the pens that redrew boundaries for House and Senate districts based on once-a-decade Census figures.
They fashioned lines that - with the current political climate - make it a long shot for Democrats to take back control of either chamber on election night, according to campaign workers and legislators from both parties and North Carolina political experts. Republican candidates overall also hold a financial advantage over their Democratic counterparts.
Republicans currently hold 68 of the 120 House seats and control 31 of the 50 in the Senate - almost mirror images of the seat advantages Democrats held in 2010.
"I don't think there's going to be a lot of dramatic change, and primarily it's because of redistricting," said Thom Little, a lecturer at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro whose focus includes state legislatures. The updated maps expanded the number of districts that Republicans can feel secure in winning and fill districts surrounding them with more Democratic voters.
Dozens of Democrats and civil rights and election reform groups challenged the maps in late 2011 as discriminatory and unconstitutional. Republicans say the maps are fair and legal. The new boundaries are being used while the lawsuits wind through the courts. The Republican advantage could be short-lived if the maps are struck down and maps must be redrawn for 2014.
For now, Democrats appear to be taking a measured approach to winning back either or both chambers, with some suggesting it may take another two-year cycle before that can be accomplished.
"While it's certainly an uphill battle in many places, it's not inconceivable that we could make progress," North Carolina Democratic Party communications director Walton Robinson said, adding: "I do feel confident that we're going to surprise the Republicans in in some places."
Cautious Senate leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham County, said for now the GOP is "still in good shape to hold onto a majority" in his chamber, which would be 26 seats. "How far beyond 26 it goes, we'll just have to wait, see how the votes are counted."
A successful campaign for Senate Republicans likely would mean retaining their three-fifths majority, or 30 seats, which mark the constitutional threshold that allowed Republicans to override Democratic Gov. Bev Perdue's vetoes and to put a constitutional amendment on the ballot to ban gay marriage.
House Republicans would need 72 seats to reach its supermajority. Such levels, however, may not be as crucial to the GOP if fellow Republican Pat McCrory is elected governor next month.
House Republican Caucus Director Matt Bales sounded more confident the GOP would make gains in his chamber. "Our caucus set out on a mission, and it was to protect and grow our majority, and we are confident that we will be able to protect and grow our majority," he said.
More than 40 of the legislature's 170 members serving in early 2011 are not on the fall ballot because of death, retirement, primary election losses or running for another elected office. Many who aren't running were forced out after being drawn into a district with another incumbent.
Because more first-time candidates are running, it's not as easy to predict how they'll perform in new districts, campaigners said. But Little said Republicans may find it difficult to expand their margins because so many of their previous targets are no longer in the legislature.
House Minority Whip Deborah Ross, D-Wake County, who has been raising money to help other Democratic candidates, said she would consider it a great election night if House Democrats could trim the GOP advantage to 64-56.
"We just don't know how things are going to shake out," said Ross, who is unopposed for her central Raleigh seat.
Ross said picking up Republican seats after redistricting would show voters don't like the actions of the GOP-led General Assembly for the past two years. Democrats say those include spending cuts in public education and the GOP's handling of the state economy. Instead of passing jobs bills, Democrats argue, the GOP decided to eliminate thousands of state government and public school positions and pass controversial items such as abortion restrictions that won't sit too well in districts with lots of unaffiliated voters.
"There are moderates in Republican swing districts who did not vote the way their constituents would have wanted them to vote," Ross said.
Republicans contend government job losses are overstated and spending cuts necessary to get the state's fiscal house in order and ease what had become an onerous tax burden on individuals and small businesses under Democratic rule. The GOP allowed a temporary penny sales tax increase and income tax surcharges to expire.
"We're saying a lot of the same things that we were saying in 2010 about the management that existed in state government in the past," Berger said. "We inherited a $2.5 billion hole and we balanced the budget" and passed an education plan that focuses on public school performance, he added.
While local issues also play significant roles in legislative races, Little questioned the effectiveness of communicating political messages about the legislature when the presidential and governor's races have dominated the airwaves this fall.
"It doesn't really matter very much," Little said. "The people aren't listening."

Taking ORACEA® can cause side effects; read more in the Important Safety Information below.
ORACEA® has been proven to reduce the inflammatory lesions (red bumps, blemishes, and pustules) of rosacea only and will not lessen facial redness.
Many patients treated with ORACEA® in clinical trials started to see improvements (reduction in inflammatory lesions) by around 3-4 weeks and these continued through the full 16-week course of study.
In clinical studies, some common side effects of ORACEA® were soreness in the nose and throat, diarrhea, sinus infection, high blood pressure, and an increase in aspartate aminotransferase in the blood. The safety of ORACEA® has been studied over nine months, with no increase in side effects compared to shorter durations of treatment, and no evidence of causing bacterial resistance.
ORACEA® is a once-daily capsule that is typically taken in the morning — but be sure to take it exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
Unlike traditional doses of doxycycline (antibiotic at doses that kill bacteria), the low-dose formulation of ORACEA® does not work by killing bacteria; instead it reduces the bumps and blemishes of rosacea because of its anti-inflammatory properties. That's important because:

It is a way of life that has helped shape three generations."It is about service and placing good qualities in a young man that will help him succeed in life," said Lonnie Jones, who has been involved with Boy Scouts since the early 1960s. "It can put you on the right course and change your life."The family has also joined forces with others in the community to spread the word about the importance of scouting among local youth. But for the Jones family, it all began when Lonnie joined a troop in Prentiss. Leader Jerry Wilson gave his time and effort to the cause, and he helped Lonnie during his journey into the program. Lonnie said he enjoyed his time in scouting when he was younger. From summer camps to outdoor adventures, he dove right into the organization.-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------

Incidents have been reported around the county, and Sheriff is urging residents to look out for their neighbors."Neighbors looking out for each other is the most effective way to prevent crime," Sheriff said.

By JASON PATTERSONEditor & PublisherThe Willie Morris Parkway will feature some of the nicest streets in Yazoo County, but the road to construction has been filled with bumps and potholes. The parkway has been hailed as the key to the most significant development opportunities for Yazoo City in decades, but the project has dragged on for so long that some wonder if it will ever really happen.Mayor McArthur Straughter said a project of this size takes time, but he is convinced it will be well worth the wait. "This project has been in the works since I took office," Straughter said. "The pace has been frustratingly slow at times, but this is going to be a great thing for Yazoo City."-------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------

Author Richard Grant has roamed the world and written about his experiences, but these days he feels at home in the Mississippi Delta.By VERNON SIKESHerald CorrespondentThe elements seem to work together.Thousands of acres of freshly plowed Delta fields, mile after mile of roads that lay flat and wind around a lake that looks more like a river, the crisp fall morning, the generations-old home that once belonged to a family of considerable standing … and Savannah, the shepherd mix who apparently never meets a stranger and possesses the hospitality of a true Southern gentleman.A truly fertile climate for literary genius.

08-09-2011, 04:26 PM #12Well guys I made a decision. Getting my windows tinted 35% all around next Tuesday. Getting a shop in Dayton, Oh near where I live to do it for $100 labor and all! Not too shabby! I think my GM certification MIGHT cover my speaker problem but I'm not sure. My driver door speaker has been out since I bought the truck in December because I have never had a door chime... it's caused me to lock my keys in the truck twice lol.

08-09-2011, 04:57 PM #13I would keep it stock, ride height. The wheels will corner better. And it's easier to get yourself in and out of the driver's seat.
excessive window tint looks bad to me. from a view point of Outside looking in. I like to be seen as I'm driving. Go with normal/ factory tint
08-09-2011, 08:18 PM #14I agree with going with the tint man! My first mod was tinting my windows since the back glass and two side windows came from the factory tinted except the passenger and driver front windows! I tinted the front passenger/driver to match the factory tint and then tinted 5% on top of that all the way around with a 5% eyebrow on the windshield! I love my truck being dark and keep's it cooler but not too much being i have a black truck! I guess you wanna spend money on factory tint i believe since it's 35% is very light tint but your getting a good deal i guess! Good luck with that you might wanna get them tinted darker in the future though lol!

Good call on the tints. Personally, I think the blacked out windows help the appearance a lot, breaks up the color a bit, otherwise all that red can be a bit much. Lookin good though

08-12-2011, 11:59 PM #17I've been thinkin about this comment and I never knew that the factory tint was 35%? If it is then I might have to go a little darker. I just didn't want to almost BLACK out my windows but I guess 20% aint toooo bad. Might have the get it 20 all the way around or at least 20 on the windshield and back glass. Thanks man

It's hard to know where to start with The Residents. The band's press release claims that they neither exist nor play any instruments, and yet they have released more than 60 albums, a smattering of videos, DVDs, and short films, and produced a handful of theater productions as well. It's a conundrum that confounds both would-be music scribes and music salesmen but has generated a legendary cult following almost from the day the group's car broke down in 1966 in San Mateo, California. It is there that this band of artistic misfits — barely musicians, any of them — began their assault on musical sensibilities and convention in a fashion similar to, though uniquely different from, The Fugs, Frank Zappa, and...

The singer's makeup was an edgy mix of berry shades and blackperfect for the 2012 Billboard Music Awards. Find out how Taylor's makeup artist created her look.
"I applied CoverGirl NatureLuxe Silk Foundation using a damp spongea trick that ensures a light, dewy application," explains Turk. "I used a small concealer brush to sweep on a little CoverGirl Fresh Complexion Under-Eye Concealer to lighten up the under-eye area. Then, I lightly applied CoverGirl and Olay Simply Ageless Sculpting Blush along Taylor's cheek bones to give just a touch of color and definition. With an eyeshadow brush, I applied the cranberry color from CoverGirl Eye Enhancers 4-Kit Shadow in Blossoms from the lash line to just above the crease, out past the outer corner of the eye, and below her lower lash line. I lined her upper and lower lash lines with CoverGirl Liquiline Blast Eyeliner in Black Fire and smudged it with a cotton bud. I finished her eyes with three coats of CoverGirl LashBlast Volume Mascara on both the upper and lower lashes. Because we went with a stronger eye look, we wanted to make the lips fairly understated and neutral, so I added only a hint of sheer color and shine with CoverGirl NatureLuxe Gloss Balm in Peony."

America is an idea, but it's an idea that brings with it some baggage, like power brings responsibility. It's an idea that brings with it equality, but equality even though it's the highest calling, is the hardest to reach. The idea that anything is possible, that's one of the reasons why I'm a fan of America. - Bono, Commencement University of Pennsylvania May 17, 2004
Ok, I'll start....
Yesterday I took off from work because I had a very busy day. It started with me having to take my son to the urologist because we thought he had a problem with his penis (I wouldn't normally share this, but you'll understand why in a minute) and ended with my whole family attending a reception at Matthew Denn's office (the Lieutenant Governer). My daughter just won an award for a watercolor she did of a ladybug (the official bug of the state of Delaware).
Anyway....we went to the doctor's office and my son was fine...
cut to the reception....
Matthew Denn was VERY nice. He made it a point to go up to each child, take them to their picture, ask them about the picture, pose for photographs, etc. My son is four. One of the categories was PreK. Mr. Denn must have thought that he was one of the winners. He walks up to D and this is their conversation:
MD (Matthew Denn): Why hello...did you paint a picture here today?
D (my son): No, I'm here for my sister
MD: Well, that's nice of you and that's a lovely sticker you have on your hand.
D: I got it at the doctor today.
MD: Well, I hope everything is ok.
D: I'm fine. The doctor wanted to look at my penis.
MD (shocked look): Oh, well I hope everything works out ok with that.
D: (as he attempts to pull down his pants): It's fine...you wanna see?
Secret Service Agents: (not knowing what the hell to do)

THAT is priceless!!! OMG! That is PRICELESS!!!!
Unpacked my bags, setting up housekeeping...think I'm here to stay.
Niice and so typical.
My youngest (3) and I had been talking about mamas carrying babies in their bellies. Later we were on the deck with my grandmother. She was sweet talking her 6lb yorkie-poo. You know "whos my little baby" etc. So tiny girl asks her, " Did you have Alle in your belly?" I thought Mom-mom was going to fall out of her chair, she was laughing so hard. She loves to retell that story.
Normal is a setting on a dryer.
My mom told me when I was a youngster, she had me at the grocery store and it was very noisy....
"It's f**king loud in here"..
That's when the potty mouth started..
"Garbage In, Garbage Out"
-G. Carlin
At Christmas time, my nephew was coming out of the shower. He had just his undies on. My husband told him that he shouldn't wear tighty-whities because his thing wouldn't grow...
My nephew didn't skip a beat: "Uh-uh!!! Daddy wears tighty-whities and his thing is THIS BIG!" As he does the hand motions to indicate that his dad has an entire tree log in his pants...
Tony will tell that story for a long time.
Don't spread my wealth - spread my work ethic!!!!!
I submitted this story when I was in the Spotlight on a DE Mom article back in January...but I just had to share again.
"I remember taking my son to a Delaware Mom's Morning Out at a story time at Barnes and Noble soon after we participated in the National Guard's Plane Pull charity event.
It happened to be around Mother's Day and the employee was reading mom-related stories to the children. She was reading something about, "my mommy works at a doctor's office.... my mommy fixes things....etc."
Then she reads, "my mommy flies a plane" and my son stood up and yelled, "My mommy PULLS planes!". "
I posted these on my blog forever ago -- some of my favorites.
And this one:I just shooed J and R (a visiting friend) outside because they were annoying P. Previously, I had been watching 2 squirrels running up and down the tree and all around the yard. As I was sending them out, I said, If you see the squirrels, make sure you leave them alone and dont go near them.
J immediately says, Yeah, especially if they have herpes!
It took me a minute to realize that he meant RABIES but I eventually stopped laughing long enough to correct him.
I asked him, Where did you hear the word herpes?
From a Little House on the Prairie episode, he says.
Must have been one of those very special episodes, huh? lol Upon further inquiry, I learn that he was remembering the episode where Laura adopts a raccoon and they have a rabies scare.
The best we can figure is that he heard the word herpes from one of the drug ads on TV and mixed it up. At least - I hope thats what happened!
And this makes me LOL. He's definitely mine.J brought me flowers for Mothers Day that he picked out himself. Even better than the flowers was his enthusiasm. He came into my room and announced, Hey mom, guess what! The flowers that I gave you have flowers whose colors havent even seen the Earth yet. Theyre baby flowers!
Woke up this morning to discover that J had dragged a push pin through the brand new, $100 bulletin board we mounted in our hallway. Its the one I wanted since we moved in and waited until I had a kick-ass coupon and it was on sale then had to wait a month for my dh to hang it. Anyway - three grooves going all the way down. Needless to say, I was angry and he couldnt tell me why he did it, so I made him stand there and look at it until he was inspired enough to come up with a reason. This is what I got:
My body is made up of different parts. One part wanders and does stuff without telling my brain its doing stuff. One part doesnt wander, but it wants to be bad all the time. The third part is the one that wants to be good all the time. I think the wandering part and the one that wants to be bad all the time were working together.
My 3 year old loves to play games on the computer. His favorites are pbskids.org, playhousedisney.com, and nickjr.com. One day he said, "lets try a new game. Lets go to diaperchange.com/poopy." he actually said the "slash poopy".
He made that up in his head and I could not stop laughing.
One day he told me "I want to vacuum all your bones out so you fall to the floor".

We are shopping in Costco, years ago. DD, now 8 was an infant and DS1 was about 5. We finish our shopping and then go to get some hot dogs for lunch. We are finishing up and DS1 has to use the bathroom. DH takes him while I clean up and sit with DD.
DH comes back with DS1 and very quickly says "LET'S GO!!" I ask why but he won't answer (did he rob Costco? What's the rush?). We get to the car and he tells me:
DH and DS1 are in the mens room at Costco. DS1 is in the stall with DH and a man comes into another stall. He is doing his business and very loudly farts. DS1, remembering what he is told from him mom says very loudly "WHAT DO YOU SAY??". The man very sheepishly says "Sorry".
That's when they hoofed it out of the bathroom. I laughed all the way home.
We were in a restaurant when my kids were little and I ordered something, I can't remember what, and I couldn't eat it, because I'd just gotten my full top plates (bit the wheel in an accident, lost nearly all my top teeth, insurance wouldn't pay for implants, caps etc).
I made the mistake of saying I couldn't chew it and was trying to figure out how to send it back as I called the waiter over. My youngest son, who was 4 at the time, figured it out before I did and said "She just got false teeth and she can't chew it up.".
I was pretty much speechless, totally mortified. The waiter smiled, the kind of smile that said "I'd rather be laughing" and said, "We'll just say it didn't taste right." I couldn't even speak to tell him what I wanted instead so my youngest said "Cheese sticks" which were his favorite, I nodded, and the waiter left.
See, at one time in his life, he WAS an honest kid, lol.

This weekend I showed the kids cicada skins again. I showed them last year but I don't think I called them that. I told them we could look for more in the yard when we got home. My son was so excited and couldn't wait to tell my grandmother that we were going to go look for potato skins. It's still stuck in his head that way.
Normal is a setting on a dryer.
we didnt have power last night...the little one was running around screaming and banging her fist
she was freaking out.
actually she was scared shitless, so we took the kids to my moms, and they were fine then...
i think this is the first time my little one has had no power so it was weird for her, and it was dark.
I remember when my kids were about 5 and 7 took them (with my 8 yr old niece ) to a pizzeria I went to the counter to order a cop walks in and as he walks past the table my daughter yells Shhhhhhhhhhs the pigs are here needless to say the cop watched us the whole time (still not sure where she got it from)
