Great Bend's Central Kansas Dream Center, located in the former Roosevelt School at 2100 Broadway Ave., is all about "reaching hurting people, restoring families (and) realizing dreams." Director Kimberly Becker recently spoke at a Noon Kiwanis meeting and described the ministries at the site, along with plans for growth.
Great Bend residents routinely call the police to report that their cars or garages have been splattered with eggs or paint balls, and usually they're advised to wash everything off and call back if there was any actual damage. Sadly, vandals took it up a notch this week by writing racial slurs on the vehicles of a black family.
The .40 caliber bullet holes in Chrystal Wilson's 2002 Ford Taurus are proof that shots were fired. The Great Bend Police Department is still sorting out what actually happened at 12:30 a.m. Sunday at 1318 Macarthur Road.
Great Bend's Burger King is out $300 and the Great Bend Police Department received three counterfeit $100 bills this week.
Dean Akings has outspent incumbent Jennifer Schartz in the Republican primary election for Barton County Commissioner representing District 5. In District 4's Republican primary, incumbent Ken Lebbin has outspent the challenger, Alicia D. (Schartz) Straub.
Two Great Bend men were taken to jail early Sunday after shots were fired at 1318 Macarthur Road. Dennis Morrison was initially booked on a charge of attempted first-degree murder and Jacob Keenan was booked on charges of aggravated burglary and criminal threat, although further investigation led to lesser charges for both men.

The spaghetti was flying - as was the ketchup, mustard, whipped cream and Hawaiian Punch - Friday afternoon on the lawn of the Great Bend Public Library.
The Barton County Courthouse will be open Saturday for anyone wishing to vote in the primary election, County Clerk Donna Zimmerman said. The courthouse will be open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., including over the noon hour.
Even with a cut in state aid expected, the Barton Community College Board of Trustees won't ask local property owners for more tax money in Fiscal Year 2015, Barton's Dean of Administration Mark Dean said Thursday.
The announcement that the Heartland Cancer Center in Great Bend will be redesigned and expanded is welcome news.
Dan Dan the Magic Man can stretch a piece of chewing gum about 12 feet and make a live rabbit appear in an empty cage. But magician Dan Heath's greatest trick may be the way he can hold the attention of a young audience for the better part of an hour.
Teens continue to enjoy science-themed activities during the Great Bend Public Library's "Spark a Reaction" summer program. On Tuesday, two boys and two girls showed up at the library's Teen Spot for a building contest using spaghetti and miniature marshmallows.
The bad news is, anyone who uses Facebook has probably been experimented on. The good news is, there's nothing new in that. We've all been guinea pigs for years.
"Things that glow" was the subject Wednesday at the Great Bend Public Library, as the summer reading program continues. At Glow Parties in the morning and afternoon, kids sat under ultraviolet "black" lights that made neon colors glow as Children's Librarian "Miss Amanda" read "The Day-Glo Brothers," the true story of Bob and Joe Switzer's bright ideas and brand new colors.
DeleteMark and Krista Ball were named the 2014 Great Bend Greater Award recipients during a rare evening meeting of the Noon Kiwanis Club, Thursday at Montana Mike's. In addition to recognizing the couple for their commitment to community service, the club gave away more than $1,500 to area organizations to celebrate its 75th anniversary.
Barton Community College officials voted on bids as quickly as they could, but there was no way to rebuild the dining hall at BCC's Camp Aldrcih before June 1, 2015. So, the popular venue for weddings, camps and other business or social gatherings will remain closed for another summer, due to the fire that destroyed the dining hall last April.
A Gus Shafer sculpture that was never completed will grace the space outside the gallery that bears his name in the future, said Dave Barnes, director of the Shafer Art Gallery in the Fine Arts Building at Barton Community College.
Area residents may be sipping wine for an adult-only evening next year in the Great Bend-Brit Spaugh Zoo, according to Zoo Director Scott Gregory.
One task the Great Bend Recreation Commission will face in 2015 is planning the city's next public playground, which will be located outside of the Great Bend Activity Center at 2715 18th St.
Live theater choices abound this weekend in Barton County. Adults seeking to quench their thirst for laughter should save at least one night for the Great Bend Community Theatre production, "Beer for Breakfast."
It was kind of exciting to post "I survived the Kansas earthquake of Nov. 12, 2014," on Facebook and Twitter, but it turns out earthquakes are becoming rather common in the Wheat State.
Salina firm Harbin Construction won the bid to build a new dining hall for Barton Community College's Camp Aldrich. The original dining hall was destroyed by a fire last April.
Members of the Great Bend Zoological Society had a lot to celebrate at their annual meeting, Monday night at the Great Bend-Brit Spaugh Zoo. But members were also saddened by last week's announcement that Zoo Director Scott Gregory will be leaving at the end of the year, to accept a job in Florida.
The Great Bend Recreation Commission is offering seventh- and eighth-grade basketball for the first time this fall. Sports Director Chris Umphres said enrollment has begun for boys and girls, and will continue for two weeks.
Barton County saw several accidents involving deer over the weekend, continuing a trend that began in October. Kansas Highway Patrol reports deer activity on and near Kansas roadways always poses a seasonal traffic hazard during deer-breeding season, which starts in October and runs into December.

From Staff Reports
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Commission adopted new rules designed to prevent further spread of exotic aquatic species into Texas waterways as part of the 2012-12 Statewide Fishing Proclamation.
The news regulations affect all Texas waters of Lake Texoma and Lake Lavon.
The changes require anglers and boaters to take action to prevent the spread of zebra mussels and silver and bighead carp. The new regulations prohibit the transport of live, non-game fishes from the Red River below Lake Texoma downstream to the Arkansas border, Big Cypress Bayou downstream of Ferrell's Bridge Dam on Lake O' the Pines (including the Texas waters of Caddo Lake), and the Sulphur River downstream of the Lake Wright Patman dam. Collection and use of nongame fishes for bait on those water bodies would still be legal.
In addition, as a precaution against incidental transfer of zebra mussels larvae known as veligers, the commission approved rules exempting boaters from the application of certain exotic species regulations provided all bait buckets, live wells, bilges, and any other receptacles, containers, or systems that could contain water are emptied prior to departure from following designated water bodies.

There are a few basic things that you will want to remember when you venture out to start selling diamonds. If you want to sell an engagement ring or some other piece, taking the diamond out of the setting is the first step toward truly understanding the value. For determining the price of your diamond, the diamond buyers will look at the cut, color, clarity, carat, and general quality of your piece. Make sure that you keep those in good shape that you would be interested in later putting on the market to sell. There is always a buyer who is looking for a great deal on a second-hand piece. This is what helps create the market for second-hand engagement rings, so if you have one that you no longer need, bringing it to diamond buyers is a great option to make some money.
If you are looking to get a good price when you start selling diamonds, it is unlikely that you will receive a fair exchange when you choose to go back to the original seller. When you first purchased your item, you paid a fairly marked-up price, so it is unlikely for you to expect to receive a similar amount when you turn to sell your item. Although, if you take the time to sell it online and wait for the right buyer, sometimes you can receive a more fair amount than you would imagine. It is all about timing and having the right person find your piece and wanting to add it to their collection. The diamond buyers, like jewelry stores, in your area are less likely to want to sit on the piece and wait for a buyer, they want to earn a profit. This is why they are less likely to give you close to what you want for the piece. The best option in trying to earn the most when selling diamonds, is to go online and look for a buyer. If your diamond is in good quality however, you may often find luck with local diamond buyers who have a good reputation for being honest and trustworthy.
If you feel uncomfortable with going online to begin selling diamonds, you always have the option to sell an engagement ring to a retailer, or some other venue. There are plenty of resources available out there to help you locate diamond buyers and get the process started. You don't need to sit around with diamond pieces that you will never use, join the millions of other diamond owners who decided to begin selling diamonds and making some extra income from their pieces they no longer need. This is why there are so many diamond buyers out there, because many people are interested in selling their diamonds. There is real money to be made if you know where to look and if you are going to take the time for the right person and exchange to occur. Don't rush into anything, this is a quick way to make a bad decision that you might later regret.

Pattern: A2 from Japanese sewing book, Feminine Wardrobe by Jinko Matsumoto.
Fabric: Pink Vichy square 100% cotton from Ikea.
The blouse/tunic is made with three front bodice pieces and three back bodice pieces. It has front and back facings and unattached big bow. After a couple of unsuccessful projects, in which I still have to work on, and some frustration, sewing this garment was the greatest pleasure. It was a straightforward and easy project to make. Also the fabric really helped since it was easy to manipulate and therefore it sew up very smoothly. I'm more than happy with the result since the blouse looks great not only in the outside but also in the inside. What I like the most is the big bow, I believe it gives the blouse a chic touch.
110 × 370 cm cotton fabric, 90 × 60 cm fusible interfacing, 2 small buttons

While Matt Cain is looking to end his longest season-opening drought in five years, the San Francisco Giants are trying to avoid their longest losing streak in almost three. That might be a difficult task against Ian Kennedy, who hasn't lost to the Giants in nine straight starts. Cain and the defending World Series champs will try to snap a five-game losing streak on Monday night when they open a three-game series against Kennedy and the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field. After a 9-4 start, slumping San Francisco (13-12) dropped its eighth in 12 games with a 6-4 loss at San Diego on Sunday. "We haven't been playing so well,'' manager Bruce Bochy said. "We've been making mistakes that have hurt us in this little streak we are in.'' The Giants haven't lost six in a row since suffering seven straight defeats from June 26-July 2, 2010, and turn to Cain to get them back on track. Cain (0-2, 6.59 ERA), though, is still searching for his fi...

Hello dear sister!
I'm so excited for the launch of the Bible study of the Wives of the Bible. (squeal!) I wanted to give you some more guidance to this 'on-line Bible study thing'. Oh, the advances of technology! Isn't it neat what we're able to do today on-line? This is just some crazy stuff! Okay, enough of the chit-chat. Let's get down to the nitty gritty.
The link below is the one you'll be following for the duration of the study. It's where you'll have access to all of the study's videos, as well as the study guide if you haven't already downloaded it.
Most of the videos have already been recorded, although I still have a few more to add to the video page. We've scheduled the videos to release every Tuesday morning at 2am PST, so wives from around the world can access it early in the morning if they'd like! Although I'll be sleeping at 2am!
So, in a nutshell, you don't need to wait on me to access the videos seeing how our system is automatically releasing them. Also, if you look at the page now, you'll see a countdown to the videos. Once the countdown reaches Tuesday at 2am, you'll see a link that you can click which will take you to the video. The first video is the study's introduction. Make sure to click that link.
This video page is designed to work with mobile phones, tablets, as well as your typical computer. You can also full screen the video page if you'd like, especially if you're doing this study with a group of women.
This is imperative!!! Make sure you're subscribed to the link I'm sharing with you below, otherwise, you won't have access to the videos and guide.
Click here: Wives of the Bible Study Resources and Videos
I think that is all the info you need in order to embark on this journey!
Oh, and if you'd like to join our Facebook group, here's the link.
Live a poured out life for Christ,

About Us
Microsoft wants you to unleash your avatar on the world
posted: 3/3/2011 11:57:00 AM
unveiled a new partnership
with both Fathead Wall Graphics and FigurePrints that will bring your avatar out of your Xbox and into your life. Now, you can order both wall decals and miniature figurines modeled off of your Xbox avatar.
With the Fathead partnership, Xbox users can order large wall decals in four different sizes. The sizes range from 2x3 ft to 4x6.5 ft. When ordering a print, you get to select from one of ten different poses for your digital persona per decal ordered. The order forms are now available over at
Fathead's website
as we speak. If wall clings aren't exactly your thing,
will turn your Avatar into an actual 3D figurine. Just like the decals, interested gamers can choose from a variety of poses through the company's website and FigurePrints will craft an exact replica using their next generation fabrication techniques.
This is something that I could see diehard and / or professional gamers jumping on without hesitation. I won't lie, while I wouldn't go for the decals, the idea of having a figure / replica avatar of myself sitting on my desk really tempts me...

Tennessee deemed OK for 6 weeks if federal impasse occurs
NASHVILLE — State political leaders say Tennessee's government should suffer no immediate severe financial problems if their Washington counterparts miss the deadline for raising the national debt ceiling. But the long-term outlook could be grim.
"It's not a drastic like, 'Oh boy, we're not going to be able to do state government the next day if they don't meet the (deadline)'," Gov. Bill Haslam told the Chattanooga Times-Free Press.
The governor, Finance Commissioner Mark Emkes, state Senate Finance Committee Chairman Randy McNally, R-Oak Ridge, and others said the state has developed contingency plans to deal with an impasse in Washington if it continues past Tuesday.
"We've looked at what happens if the funding totally gets cut off, if they shut down, and we're actually in pretty good shape with how our payment flow works," Haslam said. "But it obviously impacts the credit ratings and funding that comes from Washington."
Emkes said "we can go beyond six weeks" in keeping the state's fiscal house in order even with an impasse in Washington.
But Haslam said there would be "major problems" if an impasse continues for a longer term.
"If there's not an agreement during that period of time, I think the world explodes," Emkes said.
According to McNally, 44 percent of the state's current year budget relies on federal funding, or $14 billion of the overall $30.8 billion. Approximately 92 percent of federal funding is contained in only seven departments, with the majority going to TennCare at 44 percent, Human Services at 19.6 percent and Education at 14 percent.
The federal money, passing through the state budget, goes to hospitals, nursing homes, schools, unemployment benefits and multiple other purposes.
"If the state elects to continue any of the above services, then concerns shift to the state's ability to fund them with existing cash flow and reserves," said McNally. "Our reserves will be critical to help us through such a crisis should it occur."

The Best Blu-ray/DVD Releases of the Week: 'All is Lost,' 'Masquerade,' 'The Americans,' and 'On the Job'Features By Rob Hunter on February 11, 2014 | Be the First To Comment
Welcome back to This Week In Discs! If you see something you like, click on the title to buy it from Amazon. All Is Lost Robert Redford stars as a man sailing solo who encounters trouble out at sea. He awakens to the impact of his sailboat colliding with a derelict shipping container and quickly sets about trying to fix the damage before catastrophe occurs. His experience grows increasingly precarious, and soon he's fighting against nature and circumstance for his very life. Writer/director J.C. Chandor's follow-up to the excellent Wall Street drama Margin Call is even more engaging, but it accomplishes the feat through an opposite degree of dialogue. While that film was filled with fast-talk and lots of it, Redford's character is the only one onscreen here leaving him no one to talk to but himself. (Sure, that didn't stop Sandra Bullock from being a lonely chatterbox in Gravity, but this is a smarter movie.) The drama and suspense build naturally here as we work alongside the sailor in his efforts, and the script treats viewers as intelligent enough to follow along without needing every detail spelled out. This is a beautiful film about strength, resiliency, and the will to survive. [Blu-ray/DVD extras: Commentary, featurettes]
'Dark Skies' Star Keri Russell Talks Alien Invasion, 'The Americans,' and a Certain College StudentFeatures By Caitlin Hughes on February 21, 2013 | Comments (1)
Keri Russell became a pop cultural fixture in 1998, when she starred as the title character on Felicity, perhaps one of TV's finest coming-of-age dramas. So much the pop cultural fixture, there was an uproar heard round the world when she got a simple haircut. Though Felicity ended in 2002, and since then, Russell has continued to produce meaningful acting work. 2013 alone is a huge year for her, as she is starring as an undercover KGB operative in the critically revered FX drama The Americans, starred in Jerusha Hess' directorial debut Austenland, which just premiered at Sundance, and is starring in Dark Skies, an alien invasion thriller that opens this Friday in theaters. In Dark Skies, directed by Scott Stuart, Russell plays Lacey Barrett, a woman who faces absolute hell as her family is targeted by aliens who control the forces of nature, including three separate flocks of birds that mysteriously fly into their home. Lacey and her husband Daniel (Josh Hamilton) fight with everything they have to protect their two children against the aliens, but are instead thought to be the abusive parties by their narrow-minded suburban community. Russell was kind enough to make time for an interview, and had a lot to say about Dark Skies, her interestingly unsympathetic character on The Americans, the delights of Sundance, and the final episodes of Felicity.
The 5 Most Promising Midseason Television PremieresFeatures By Amber Humphrey on January 11, 2013 | Be the First To Comment
We had a tepid fall season, as far as new shows go. But finally, the midseason is upon us — that wonderful time of the year when the disappointments of the Fall (The Mob Doctor, Animal Practice) are forgotten so we can get all worked up about TV again. Continuing a trend toward more cinematic television, most of what will be premiering in the next couple of months is pretty ambitious. There are epic historical dramas and intricate thrillers but only a handful of sitcom debuts. Listed here in order of premiere date are five of the most encouraging new series.

I have my next follow up appt with the eye surgeon on Tuesday.
I have some new plants to put in the garden beds, hopefully over the weekend.
My sister & family are thinking of moving from Agnes water to Brisbane before the end of the year. Big move for them but it will be so much easier to see them more often.
Who's up next?
Posted 29 March 2012 - 09:46 PM
Ok so today I went to Endota for my treatment. O. M. G. It was AMAZING.
I am shiny and moisturised and relaxed. My favourite bit was the soak. I haven't had a bath since OCtober as there is a silly one in this house and I craved it at the end of my pregnancy. And today it was so deep and warm - it was sad to have to get out lol.
Thank you so much again. It was lovely. I'm going to take the wine to my mums tomorrow night and have a glass with her. We might get to talk as only Marcus and Sarah will be with me.
I'm going to my mums as on Saturday night I'm doing something very exciting.... Im going to the hunter valley to see Duran Duran. My girlfriend snd I are heading up for the night to go to concert. It will be a great catch up and all the reviews on the concert say it's great.
Marcus is going well. He was 58cm and 6 kg at 7.5 weeks. He is going good. Still has bad skin rash though do I'm going to hit it with moisturizer and see if ghat helps any as it seems to be drying out now.
We are in the process of buying a house back in Forster. I can't wait to move and get settled. I'm even looking forward to packing as I know I'm not moving for a long time. Will be great for kids too. We are trying for a quick settlement so hoping to be in early May after abit of quick maintenance. Fingers crossed all goes to plan.
Lily is very unsettled at moment with lots of meltdowns and crying in her sleep. I'm not sure what to do for her but she is struggling. Gavin said when he saw to her last night she was really anxious and her heart was racing and she was up and down alot in the night. I thought it was just school and Marcus arriving but maybe there is something else going on??
Have all the other kids settled down ok from starting school?
Megan your garden is going to be amazing by the time you are done.
Janet I love your hair cut
Ok that's my bit. Hello to everyone.

Just got home from the marathon Easter raffle at school -- 108 prizes!!! Ella won a package with 3 large bunnies in it, so there's Easter sorted LOL! Glad one of them won something though, otherwise might have had tears. And it's last day of term today so lots of excitement around here. I'm looking forward to having a couple of weeks off, even though it's not going to be very restful for me!
I have to take poor Pops to the dentist this afternoon, she either has a massive cavity in her tooth or she's broken it -- it's one of the molars. Hopefully will be easily sorted out anyway.
Naz, I'm glad you enjoyed your spa day! Very envious here, hopefully DH will come through for Mother's day or my birthday
OK, I need to do some work this morning so talk to you all later ...

Hiya Megan!!
Having my usual day off monday but no time to relax as usual!
Tom is loving preschool at the moment so nice! He had his lil athletics presentation day yesterday he was so proud as was I!!
I ended up buying a kobo but havent had a chance to use it a friend gave me a heap of books!

BLR- were you flooded out your way? We had all of the Hay evacuees staying in Deni. I didn't actually see the news the whole time it was flooding to know exactly where the flooding was.
I love your hair too Janet!
I'm watching Parenthood, it's my new favourite show but Peter watched it a couple of times and commented on the constant arguing between 2 of the characters and he's right! Maybe it's too real , he won't watch Supernanny either. We get enough of feral children without watching them for entertainment
Olivia is a handful ATM. She's really frustrating me because I think she's nearly 8! Shouldn't she be more consistently compliant by now?! I mean, she can be the sweetest, most beautiful girl but those moments are being ruined by the typical princess b**chface behaviour that's doing my head in. She's lost her birthday party - she can earn it back but it doesn't seem likely.
Kimbal has been great. Getting a bit more stressed at end of term, making making decisions harder for him, but still pretty good. No worries at school this year, I've been to just about every assembly and did canteen on Friday and he was fine to give me a hug then go and play (or help the others spend $28 at tr canteen in one day!!! Lucky I'm only on the roster every 5 weeks).
Luella is going well. She tries on being a princess, especially when she's tired, but can't maintain that persona and is easily distracted. I don't know how much she's taking in at school, but she's enjoying it and that's enough for me right now. She's also doing dance and thinking that's pretty cool.
Curtis is so grown up. He doesn't shut up. He's loving preschool now, it's so cute when he sees a teacher out and about and he runs up to say hello. He doesn't hurt other kids anymore either which is a bonus - in a social setting when I hear crying I don't automatically think 'oh sh*t Curtis!'. (tbh I'm more likely to wonder what Olivia has done...).
I need more coke for my gurgling belly

I mean, she can be the sweetest, most beautiful girl but those moments are being ruined by the typical princess b**chface behaviour that's doing my head in.
seems that Olivia and Zoe learned from the same place. Drives me nuts!
Posted 03 April 2012 - 07:15 AM
Struggling a little at the moment but trying to keep my chin up.
Dd is a pleasurable turd at the moment. Totally delightful one minute and then cranky pants and rude the next. I know her commitment to being ultra demanding increases as my mood and patience goes down.
I've been trying the conditioner without washing it out and it's not making much difference with her hair. The problem is that she twists it and sucks on it. It's driving me insane and I am hating mornings to brush her hair. Im inclined to just permanently plait her hair.
Janet I also love your hair. It's exactly how I wanted mine and took a photo similar to the hairdresser. I'm not happy with what I got instead, so waiting for it to grow a little and will try again with a different hairdresser.
DS#2 has been fabulous, he's so very responsible lately and I rarely have to ask him to do anything more than once. Except for the dishwasher. Which brings me to my tolerance in the kitchen. I'm so totally sick of my kitchen bench being covered with dirty dishes constantly. We've been in the new place for a year and never have my children or my husband put a dirty dish in the dishwasher except when it's time to pack it to run it. I'm so sick of that. It's not difficult to open it up and put a plate and cutlery in. So I'm on kitchen strike.
Mandy those characters on parenthood seem to be fitting constantly, but then again they all do and then just get over it.
Naz the spa sounds fantastic.
Posted 03 April 2012 - 02:39 PM
Mulan could you suggest to her that if she doesn't look after her hair when it's ling then it might need to be cut short? It may be enough to get her to stop messing with it. I hear you on the dishwasher front, I'm always having to put all the dishes in, for some reason Shane seems to think plonking them on the bench above the dishwasher is just fine
Posted 03 April 2012 - 07:40 PM
The delightful one that drives me insane is all four of them tonight walked past the open dishwasher and plonked their dinner plates in the sink and then walked past again. DH even closed the dishwasher when he took his in.
We've tried the haircut threat and even cut 20cm off it a few weeks back. Ds#1 piped in and told her his gets knotty too and she realized its going to be knotty and she will still twist it whether it's long or short. If I had realized when she was 12 months old that the cute hair twisting she was doing as she was going to sleep would become such a big long term problem I think I would have kept her hands away from her face as she was going to sleep perhaps.
Posted 03 April 2012 - 08:16 PM
Mulan both my girls have curly hair that ends up very knotty. I just bought this out of desperation at the hairdressers and it's working great.
We have no more tears at all and if it's a super knotty morning I just put some of this in the dried hair and comb it through - just get it from woolies (or Priceline

Posted 03 April 2012 - 08:16 PM
Did I suggest combing through Dove intensive repair overnight treatment? I thought I did mention it in here at some stage but can't remember what for. It's not normal conditioner, it's like magic in a pump pack. Give it a go!
Olivia loves her hair out, I wish she'd wear it up because it's pretty wild but at the end of the day it's her hair. I win at school though, it's always up for school but the elastics come out as soon as we get home.
We had a few weeks of kitchen peace here, the deal being Peter cleaned the kitchen when I was putting the kids to bed (usually takes up to an hour to read and have some quiet time with each kid- unfortunately they all want me to do it even if he does the reading/talking part they still want me as well so it's just more time economical for me to do it from the start). In return, I would make his lunch the next day on the clean bench space he'd provided. But he seems to have given up- novelty wears off does it buddy? - and so I'm cranky and usually in the kitchen from 7-7. Or so it seems!

Our nice new dishwasher has broken. So dirty dishes on the bench top seem to be the norm.
Posted 03 April 2012 - 10:21 PM
I love my dishwasher and prefer DH and the kids just put their dishes in the sink as it seems only I can get it all to stack properly. I do insist they empty it once clean though.
DD is being difficult with her hair. She refuses to let me do it unless it's a pre-school day. I can usually get an elastic in it enough to keep it out of her face so she can eat but, first chance she gets after, the elastics are ripped out. She's now nappy free, wearing undies to bed since 24th March.
Have learnt that DD and DS#3 both have skeeter syndrome. Fancy pants name for a severe reaction to mosquito bites. They get welts which become huge blisters then ulcers once the blisters burst. Antihistamines help a little. I'm crossing everything they don't become anaphylactic over time as it can happen. I don't fancy having to carry an epipen because of mozzies of all things. Unfortunately, DS#3 got quite a doozy of a staph infection in his bites recently and is on his second course of antibiotics to get rid of it. And I didn't realise quick enough and had been putting him in the bath with the others, 2 of whom also now have infected sores/scratches.
DS#3 is getting tired as term draws to an end. He's on level 10 readers and finding them easy. The expression in his reading is really funny to listen to as he goes OTT with it. The kinders are running the assembly on Thursday. AJ managed to score the very first line that has to be said. They also do their easter hat parade (they were made at school - so much easier) and we have the P&C raffle. 33 prizes up for grabs.
DS#2 is starting to push the boundaries with his language/topics, especially at the dinner table. He's doing well at school and, from the sounds of it, his teacher has hime doing more year 2 work than year 1. Great as I always worry that he'll get a bit forgotten about while they wait for the othr kids to catch up.
DS#1 is also being testing in the way only eldest children can. It was mentioned *again* at his parent teacher interview that he lacks focus and struggles to complete work. Head, meet wall. His teacher recognises that he is smart BUT looking at his work books, you wouldn't pick it. I just don't know what to do with him to change this. None of his teachers have found a solution yet either. On the bright side, he 'wrote' a great speech for school this week. It was supposed to be 2 minutes and his was actually 5-6. Hope they don't time penalise at this point of school. He was heading for meltdown territory when it came time to write it so I told him to tell me what he wanted to say and I'd write it for him. Seems he has this thing about having to physically do the work. I know his pencil grip is not relaxed so his hand/arm ache if he has to write too much. I also think he mind is working faster than he can get stuff down on paper. Heck, even I had trouble keeping up at times and I'm not exactlty a slow writer.
Been writing this for a while. Falling asleep in front of the puter so off to bed.

Wow lots of posts great to see!
I have an ereader question I have put in serial killers if anyone had time or understanding!
J has started soccor again there goes saturdays lol no I'm looking forward to it and the lil boys were sop well behaved on the first training so fingers crossed it keeps up!
I feel like I'm losing the battle to keep j interested in reading he sees it more as homework now and is teetering on reading fluently he can read well but still gets stuck sometimes so his patience is very limited sigh its so important but i just dont know what to do.
B is so tired lately introducing preschool and no day sleeps he is throwing tantrums left right and centre
T is being quite good lately and 2 day of preschool suit him very well
Does anyone think the cost of living lately is ridiculous??LOL but it really is!

Ok so it tells me there ar no less than 3 people reading. Post people, post!
I am so glad it's the end of school, although I am considering buying a stack of plastic plates and cups to get me through the holiday period. I am sick of the kitchen. It will only be a couple of years until I can roster the kids on washing up right? Might have to get the dishwasher fixed. The mice from the 2011 plague ate their way through the water pipes.
I have Kimbal home today, and half of yesterday, because he had stomach pains which I knew before I sent him to school, but was hoping he'd improve. If gastro stops us yet AGAIN from going to the east coast I don't know what I'll do! Think we are cursed?!
I borrowed the second hunger games book from the library yesterday so might have a reading day before all of the kids are here to distract me.
Curtis is at a beautiful age when it comes to tiredness, in that by the end of the day he's not so overtired that he can't function and he doesn't nap during the day (only to be up all night). He's also settling into a lovely boy, yesterday at the library another little girl threw the crayons everywhere (one hitting him) and he just went over, picked them all up, then let the little girl give him a big hug (even if he was looking a bit stiff and confused ). He loves preschool. I have no excuses for not working anymore, he would want an extra daycare day (none of my kids ever have liked it this much! but then they all had each other). So I'm doing the paperwork over the holidays to work at the kids' school, which will mean I can still pick them up and go to their assemblies on Fridays.

Hi everyone
Been MIA a bit as it's been frightfully busy here. This waking up early thing certainly does not agree with me, and I am so glad we're having holidays for 3 weeks.
Alex is settling into school. I don't always update with stuff here but there's stuff over on SK. There are some frustrations but I am hoping for improvements in term 2.
We don't have much planned for the hols. I am working, as is Chris, so holiday programs for Alex have been organised, and on teh days when we'e not sending him, he'll go to work with me or Chris, or stay home with my parents. My folks will arrive tomorrow. We'll have to do some crazy cleaning before they arrive! House is a disaster!
BLR, have you tried letting J choose his own books from the library (rather than just read readers)? I found that Alex was always keen to read books of his own choosing. He has not really gotten into the readers most of this term. There would be the odd one that he'd like but not much more. Justthinking that if he has chosen his own book, he'd be more willing to continue even after stumbling on a word. Also, most books have more of a plot that readers. What level is he on? You can probably find books of a similar level at teh local library

I feel like I'm losing the battle to keep j interested in reading he sees it more as homework now and is teetering on reading fluently he can read well but still gets stuck sometimes so his patience is very limited sigh its so important but i just dont know what to do.
Get him to read instructions to put things together/play a game, get him to cook from a recipe, get him to write the shopping list or read the shopping list when shopping (write his own and send him on his way), write him a letter, go through old birthday cards and read through them together, google things that he is interested in (Olivia googled how long it would take for our tadpoles to turn into frogs last week), give him a break with the readers/story books and take turns reading for different characters or read a page each, give him a tv guide and get him to read it to circle shows he'd want to watch, find the lyrics for songs he likes and give them to him to read along with the song.
Oh I am so full of ideas The main thing is, he has to find the reading relevant to him. If he is interested in the topic/story, or it has a purpose to him, it won't be homework. Olivia's reading level is still above her comprehension so while she can read anything (she is off levels now), it doesn't always mean a lot to her.
Boys have come alive here. Oh the noise!!

Bon when our school had a reading workshop on for the parents they stressed that it's really important to let them read something they enjoy regardless of what it is (abviously not completely inappropriate content) & suggested all kinds of things like toy catalogues, sport magazines, cook books. They said nobody ever developed a love of reading from school readers Caelan does the readers somewhat under duress but he LOVES his books from the library, currently we're reading Zac Power books & he's enthralled
Cheeks that's interesting about skeeter syndrome. i get really strong reactions to mozzies too, perhaps not quite that severe but not far from it.
Posted 05 April 2012 - 03:45 PM
Go Zac Power! Alex loved Zac Power and we ended up buy a whole set of it for him. I recently discovered that there are more than the set I bought and will try to find them in the library.
Posted 05 April 2012 - 07:49 PM
Can you check SK if you have time, I need some advice on a schoolyard issue. It's not urgent though, I'm more just interested in what others would do/suggest their child do.
My whole house has such a good vibe now it's holidays. I wish I could bottle it to take swigs from towards the end of every term!
Posted 09 April 2012 - 11:05 AM
I'm reading along.
First week of school holidays are done. We've been pretty lazy, really. Just kept to ourselves a bit, recharging batteries. This second week, we'll hopefully get out a bit more so we don't go stir crazy. The circus is in town and I want to take the kids to that, we also wanted to check out the new themed play centre. I took Raife and his friend but the older kids want to see it too. It's got a room that is pirate themed, with a pirate ship, hats, swords, treasure and a little cave, for example. There are also a couple of staff members who are dressed up and walk around engaging the kids, playing with them. It's pretty cool really.
If you had older kids you could pretty much just sit and read/drink coffee while they played. Unfortunately I have Pepper She likes to climb. Oh, there's also someone who can do face painting around. So, anytime there's someone who wants their face painted, they can do it.
Any Melb girls who want to come for a play, let me know!! LOL
Pepper is nearly 2, into everything, miss independent, oh so cheeky, but very cute. The top of her hair just will not grow, so she has a rocking mullet atm. Hence the pigitails. Or as Raife says curly tails.
Raife is 4, has settled into kinder beautifully. Has 2 great friends, one a boy who's brother is Hunter's best friend and one a girl who is one of Levi's best girly friend's sisters. We pick up his glasses this week which he will wear all the time to help his long sightedness. This is going to be a longterm forever type thing as it doesn't look like it will ever get better.
He's excited about it though and can't wait to get them.
Levi has settled into school really well, bit slow with learning to read, I think he would have suited the sounding words out better than the memorising them way to learn. But other than that he seems quite settled. I think it really helped that he has some friends from kinder in his class and that his teacher was Hunter's teacher from last year.
Hunter is doing well too, loves doing his readers. Prefers books with pictures than just words still, but hopefully he will get there. I think with his Asperger's he is a very visual kid and prefers pictures. I hope he starts to read real books, I'd hate for him to miss out on that "world".
Brad is working alot. (Alot, alot) So he's tired. Me too! LOL
He is taking a couple of weeks off in May and we are planning on taking a weekend away in the Macedon Ranges so that should be nice. We've never been away before and he's never taken any time off so it will be brilliant. I'm almost counting down the days. Almost!
Mandy- That would be brilliant! I love this relaxed vibe. I loved the Hunger Games books, and bought my Mum a kindle for her birthday so she can read them too! Lol. The movie was good too.
Celia- Sounds like business as usual at your place! LOL At least you don't get bored. Hope you are enjoying your parents' visit. x
BLR- Yep, agree with you there. Everything is so expensive. I can't believe petrol prices!
Better get off here. Took forever to update. (Just goes to show I should pop in more!)

The Farrelly brothers could burp out a movie funnier than The Hottie & the Nottie, a farce of corrupt stereotypes that's never more grotesque than when it pretends to be more than skin-deep.
Like Nate, we are mere Notties. And we are supposed to feel oh-so privileged for getting to watch Paris through the glass.
You've got to admire Hilton's complete conviction in herself as the center of all that is beautiful and good. And maybe such unwavering self-regard is actually kind of hot. Or not.
Great actors make the craft look easy. In the Paris Hilton comedy The Hottie and the Nottie, acting looks very, very difficult.
Though Hilton may be a model, if her work in Hottie is any indication, she is no actress.
That generous half star rating I tacked onto this comedy abomination is all for Paris Hilton. Come on, it takes guts (or gross dim-wittedness) to appear on screen again after "House of Wax."
A cinematic excursion so horrific that it's an insult to bad movies to call it a bad movie.
The most astounding thing about this abysmal comedy -- aside from the fact the studio actually allowed critics within a mile of it -- is that it's so ghastly it is beneath even the meager dignity of Paris Hilton.
Crass, shrill, disingenuous, tawdry, mean-spirited, vulgar, idiotic, boring, slapdash, half-assed, and very, very unfunny.
It's not like Paris Hilton to rise above her material, but The Hottie and the Nottie sinks so low that all she has to do is stand upright.
Custom designed for its smirking star (who is also an executive producer), this tasteless train wreck asks only that she preen and prance on cue.
Paris Hilton has already ushered a remarkable three features into the Internet Movie Database's "Bottom 100." The Hottie and the Nottie will make it an even four.
How is Paris Hilton in her first starring role to receive a national release? Pretty bad, actually. She's limited to a single, all-too-familiar expression of smug self-satisfaction, and she delivers her lines in a tone somewhere between "seductive" and "dish-soap commercial."

DA: Northampton Co. attorney Anthony Martino stole from his own clients
Updated On: Oct 23 2012 06:14:26 AM CDT
For years, Anthony Martino defended people accused of crimes. Now, the former Northampton County solicitor and public defender needs a defense attorney for himself.
A 16-count grand jury indictment alleges Martino stole money from some of his private clients in what's been called a "rob Peter to pay Paul" scenario.
District Attorney John Morganelli said the trail started with the estate of a man who wanted to leave his money to Moravian College after he died in 2008.
"Anthony J. Martino wrote 96 checks to himself from the estate," said Morganelli. "Those 97 checks totaled $237,306."
When it came time to pay Moravian College, Martino took money -- a $75,000 settlement and an $87,000 IRS payment -- from two other clients, Morganelli said. Martino also borrowed $50,000 from a client to make the payment to Moravian, according to a grand jury presentment.
"These are serious charges. This involves a breach of fiduciary relationship between client and attorney. These are very serious charges," said Morganelli.
Martino turned himself in and was charged with a list of crimes, ranging from theft to forgery and receiving property.
His former partners, who have nothing to do with this case, said they are reserving comment until they see the indictment.
Meantime, Morganelli said the investigation of Anthony Martino is not over. His office is checking into several other claims that have come into his office.
69 News left messages for Martino and visited his Bangor home for comment but could not reach him.
Martino's preliminary hearing is set for Oct. 31.

Successful women in mobile marketing do not wait for karmaNovember 4, 2014
Do you remember learning about Newton's Third Law of Motion in high school? It states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Do you remember learning about Newton's Third Law of Motion in high school? It states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.
In the past, brands and agencies have shied away from mobile advertising. It was too new, too unexplored, or too confusing. Even now, some brands simply do not know how to monetize these new media channels.
Recent stats from comScore and CivicScience report that Snapchat's penetration is now at about half of 18-24-year-old smartphone users, up from less than one-third a year earlier. This puts Snapchat at the third-most-popular social media channel, but just barely.
We will never get to engagement if we do not eliminate friction. Friction in mobile experiences is deadly.
What we often forget is that the reason banner ads still work for marketers and publishers alike on desktop is the immense amount of ad tech infrastructure behind the scenes that makes everything work. Not so in mobile.
Nearly two years ago, a survey found that the top obstacle to the adoption and success of mobile marketing programs is "a lack of strategy." Little has changed.
As consumer confidence in mobile grows, so does mobile-originating traffic to retail Web sites. In fact, according to a June 2014 comScore report, fully 60 percent of digital media time spent online by consumers is originating from smartphones and tablets, a figure that has increased 50 percent over 2013.
In the near future, you are likely to see a device identical to the tablet you use at home to browse the Web or watch a video at the cash wrap of your favorite retailer. The phenomenon is not limited to a select group of luxury or consumer tech stores.
Too often, designers and their teams are sprinting to finish a project before a deadline and then iterating quickly on the next version. But good design – especially product design – takes time, and it should not be rushed.
Research has shown that mobile video views have increased a massive 400 percent in the past two years, doubling in the last year alone.

But this gallery have both the "fancy" way of working, and is very user friendly. Some things could be improved, like make it more clear to upload, and the configuration panel is not easy to find. I've been setting up user cases to test this, and they miss that little tool button.
Then, I ran into problems with java script. Nothing worked the first time, (the solution suggested in the documentation does not work for me), I found a solution in the forums, then I upgraded the component and plugin, and the problem was there again. It is not possible to upload pictures, not to browse existing pictures. The forum is new, without the old content. My suggestion is when you are making a good component like this, is to make sure to have all the possibilities to make your customer happy (since this extension cost a bit) I'm not able to find the solution and is therefor stuck.
I give the extension a 4.5 and the support at the moment 3.
