Charlotte's Olde Mecklenburg Brewery is closing its Greensboro warehouse and scaling back Triad expansion plans.

Codemasters CEO Rod Cousens calls the current used games market "destructive" in a lengthy interview with Gameindustry.biz. Cousens also said that the confrontational attitudes between retailers and publishers is getting "ridiculous." Of course, most of the confrontational attitudes he speaks of have been on the publisher side of the equation.
"Pre-owned isn't actually new… the difference was that it wasn't a significant percentage of the market, and it was never promoted as aggressively through the retail community as it is today," he said speaking in the second part of an interview with GamesIndustry.biz.
"You could argue for the retailer in that context, but also what it's done is kill things like subsequent exploitation in platinum and classics… and it expands the potential for piracy by default. They would argue that prices would suggest otherwise – I would say not, because by the time you get down through the food chain, a thing gets more and more ripped off.
"So my view is that it needs to be managed. I don't believe that retail is going to disappear soon – I also believe that 35 per cent of the world market that doesn't have broadband, and its only access it through retail, is still a significant part to any content creator."
Cousens added that it is possible with a game like F1 2010 that his company could release a smaller game on disc for retail partners, and then follow up with downloadable content as the Formula One season unfolds.
"It's not inconceivable to say that we send out a Formula One game that's not complete – maybe it's got six tracks. Then they have to buy their next track, and you follow it around the world. When you turn up in Abu Dhabi you have to pay for the circuit, and whatever the changes are to the cars that are put through. That, I think, would deal with a lot of it, and also address the pre-owned."
Of course, in releasing a smaller game Codemasters would be wise to lower the price of its games..

City says help on the way for snow-rutted streets
Grading of rutted Saskatoon residential streets began Monday and will continue all week.
CTV Saskatoon
Published Wednesday, December 19, 2012 7:53AM CST
Rutted residential streets in Saskatoon are getting a grading.
The work began Monday with 10 grading crews clearing the worst of the snow ruts and will continue throughout the weekend to get the majority of the problem areas done.
The city says it takes a lot of preparation to determine which roads are the worst and make sure they are ready for a grader to come through.
Clearing ruts more than six inches deep is part of the city's regular service, but it can take some time to get all of the work done.
The city says it relies on the public to let them know if a street needs attention.

Fujitsu Siemens Lifebook P8010 review
Competing with Sony, Lenovo and Apple is no easy task, as this overpriced and unremarkable ultraportable proves.
The ultra-portable business laptop market has undergone a huge shake-up in recent months, with a triple-release of outstanding new products: the Lenovo X300, MacBook Air and updated version of Sony's TZ series with the TZ31MN. All three of these laptop brought decent performance, impressively thin chassis and low weight, and all will attract jealous stares in the boardroom. This is the sector that Fujitsu Siemens is targeting with its Lifebook P8010, but can it beat the competition?
Unfortunately, it is rather less visually impressive than the models in this desirable trio. The lid has a couple of seams that run horizontally from edge to edge, apparently inspired by the growth rings on bamboo, and two different finishes, which give it a slightly cluttered look. Inside, things are similarly confused. Where the Apple and Sony bring unique and contemporary styling and the X300 brings classy business-focused looks and a certain amount of retro-ThinkPad charm, the Fujitsu sports a rather standard grey plastic does it few favours - we've seen laptops much cheaper than this with better design.
A small glossy black panel above the keyboard complete with some chrome buttons lifts the design slightly, and matches the chrome screen hinges, but the overall feeling is one of function over form.
The quality of the finish is far higher than that of the design, at least. The chassis is sturdy and strong without adding to the weight drastically, and the screen is very well protected, although the 1cm thick lid is far chunkier than the razor-thin display on the Sony TZ31. We certainly had no qualms about dropping it into a bag, which can be a concern with ultra-thin units like the TZ.
The keyboard and mouse is similarly well put together. The former runs to within just a few millimetres of the edge of the chassis, so is as wide as those found on some larger laptops. It has a very low action, but the key action is positive and typing on it is comfortable and quick. The trackpad is also very accurate, and the touch sensitive area surprisingly spacious.
The notebook may be impressively compact from most angles, and even lighter than the MacBook Air at 1.35kg, but its thickness stands out from afar when compared to its rivals. While most high-end ultra-portables now are competing on headline thickness figures, the Fujitsu seems to have disregarded the race entirely. Its smaller 12.1in screen means it's nearly four centimetres narrower than the X300 (which has a 13.3in screen), and three centimetres shallower, but it's almost twice as thick.
Unfortunately the same can be said of the MacBook Air, and the Sony TZ31 manages to shave a few millimetres off of the width and depth while still coming in well over a centimetre thinner and boasting a higher resolution on its 11in TFT panel. The extra height doesn't make a huge difference when carrying the unit in a bag, but has a huge impact on its looks and style - a big problem for a machine pitched at the luxury end of the portable market.
The larger size at least allows Fujitsu to cram in plenty of features. But though it sqeezes more in than the MacBook Air, it has no significant advantage over the X300 or TZ31, which both offer a similar range of useful connections, and a DVD writer. It also offers a fingerprint reader and TPM chip, a major plus for security-conscious business users, an integrated 3G modem and a hard disk shock sensor. The latter was extremely effective, warning us to keep the notebook steady at even the smallest of knocks, although this did eventually becoming wearing.

on the paper above to visit our
Article by Teddy Durgin
Is the New Spanish-Language "Instructions Not Included" Padrisimo?
OK, so, how do you say "Sap" in Spanish? 'Cause that's what I was by the end of "Instructions Not Included," a film that starts off as a broad comedy about an Acapulco playboy forced to become Mr. Mom that turns into a shameless melodrama by the end that rather ruthlessly goes for the tear ducts. Oh, it is indeed shameless, I tell ya. So shameless that I wanted to yell "Aw, come on!" as the closing credits rolled... that is, if I weren't weeping openly along with the other hundred or so people seated around me. What's that? You've never heard of "Instructions Not Included?" Amazingly, neither had I a week ago. But when I went on the Box Office Mojo website to check the box-office totals, there it was vying for third and fourth place while playing on less than 800 screens. What was this little movie that could?! As it turns out, it's a Spanish-language movie that had been masterfully marketed to Hispanic audiences for weeks now. Sacre Bleu! Bonzai! Achtung geseundheit! OK, none of those are Spanish words. I'm obviously a buffoon. But I'm smart when it comes to flicks. So, is it any good? I would characterize it as neither "good" nor "bad." Rather, it is "effective." It indeed tells the story of Valentin (the engaging Eugenio Derbez), a Mexican beach-bum playboy who has to grow up suddenly when one of his former conquests shows up at his door; introduces him to his baby daughter, Maggie; asks for some cash to pay the cab driver; then makes a run for the border. Valentin takes Maggie to L.A. to try and find the mother and stumbles into work as a stuntman. Years pass and daddy and daughter become quite a pair. But inevitably the mother, Julie (Jessica Lindsey), shows up and wants to reclaim her daughter. For the first two-thirds of its running time, "Instructions Not Included" is played for laughs - think "Three Men and a Baby" and "The Game Plan" crossed with your pick of the bumbling-dads-changing-diapers sitcoms that have aired on TV over the years. But when Julie comes back into the picture - now a lawyer and in a committed relationship - the movie shifts gears into sappy melodrama before going for broke in its final moments with a twist that had the target audience I saw this with absolutely DISTRAUGHT! Don't worry. I won't give away the ending. And I won't give away how badly I shamed myself with the tears. I didn't understand anything anyone was saying around me in that theater the other night. But I did discover that the English-Spanish word for Kleenex is oddly enough... Kleenex! Gracias, señorita, for sharing. The thing I liked best about the film was the core daddy-daughter relationship. Yes, Valentin's Maggie reminded me very much of my Maddie. But it was more than that. As the father of a little girl who sees over 100 movies a year, I have become acutely aware of the lack of believable father-daughter relationships on the big screen that are shown with genuine warmth and honesty. Most Hollywood films about dads and daughters have the fathers seeing their girls in vaguely sexual terms, comically obsessing on what they're doing on their dates. "Instructions Not Included" tells a really beautiful father-daughter story. Unfortunately, the film has a few shortcomings that are tough to ignore. Chiefly, at nearly two hours, it's too long. There are odd little bits that should have been edited out that don't really belong in the film. The scenes on Hollywood sets play like bad parody, and there is an unfunny recurring gag involving Valentin's landlord who suffers from early dementia. "Instructions Not Included" is definitely not light on its feet. But I'd be lying if I didn't say it is highly effective in the end. I can see why it is getting such a following. So, bravo! Wunderbahr! Tres Magnifique! Oh, alright. Padrisimo!
"Instructions Not Included" is rated PG-13 for sexual content, thematic elements and language.

I have a first edition Wii, pre-ordered and picked up with first release. Couple years ago I installed a wasabi DX, the HBC, WiiMC and ran pimp my wii. I have used the wii to its fullest and have never had any problems with any games, apps or videos. A couple weeks ago we watched a movie (avi on SD) through WiiMC and always when we were done I powered it down. The following night we go to turn it on to watch Netflix and to my astonishment it fails to boot. All we really did on it was play disc based games, watch videos/movies from the SD card through WiiMC and watch Netflix.
I push the power button on the wii, the light turns green, the disc drive spins up then stops and then nothing. There is nothing on the screen at all, no black screen nothing, there is no display. The wiimote does not communicate with the system at all; it will not turn it on, it doesnt sync even after the power light turns green, nothing.
I have tryed different TVs, different video and power cables. I have tryed booting into the wasabi menu. I have tryed the gamecube controler thing and unbrick discs. nothing has worked thus far. Any ideas?? Is this thing finaly dead?
At this point my thoughts are, do I really want to buy another wii when the wiiU could be out soon? I have a bluray player so I dont need a PS3 and nothing has ever interested me on the XBOX that wasnt on the PC...

Baker improved to 1-1 on the year and dropped Haskell to an overall mark of 0-3 early on in the 2012-13 season.
Ben Steinlage had a game high 13 points and a team high six rebounds on 6-of-9 shooting and the Wildcats held Haskell to just 19 points in the first half and entered the break up, 27-19.
The Wildcats then turned up the offense in the second half with 38 points and Steinlage poured in nine of his 13 in that second half.
Haskell had two players score in double figures in Trey Osborne with 11 and Ron Rousseu with 10.
Baker was outrebounded, 39-35, but caused 28 turnovers and has now caused 57 turnovers in its two games combined.
Julian Mills was second on the team in scoring on Tuesday with nine points and added a team high three assists.
Baker shot 45-percent from the field, but only managed to connect on 2-of-12 from beyond the arc for a percentage of 16.7. They did hold Haskell to just 34-percent shooting from the floor.
The Wildcats will next take on the University of St. Mary this Friday, Nov. 9 and Ottawa Saturday, Nov. 10 at 3 p.m. in the Ottawa Clasic.

The Emir of Kano, Sir Alhaji Dr.Ado Bayero was this Saturday afternoon attacked by unknown gunmen. His convoy was attacked around the Zoo road by Total Gasoline station when he was returning from a religious function at the Murtala Mosque in Kano Metropolis. His driver and three of his guards were killed
The Emir was unhurt in the attack and has since been moved to an undisclosed location.
Some residents in the area said Nigerian troops of the Joint Task Force later took over the scene of the attack while firing shots.

Any tips to help get some sleep?
I am having the hardest time getting sleep!!! I believe I am about 5 weeks pregnant. Before finding out I was pregnant, I relied on Ativan, 2-3 mg, to help me fall/stay asleep. (I've had trouble sleeping for years now). Since finding out that I am pregnant, I have not taken the Ativan. I've been taking 12.5 mg of Benadryl, which helps me fall asleep. Problem is, like clockwork every night, I wake up at 3 due to having to pee, and won't be able to fall back asleep until about 7-8 am. WHAT DO I DO? And is Benadryl ok to take? Should I take a higher dose? You'd think me being a nurse I wouldn't feel so helpless/clueless. Totally opposite when you're the patient!! Please help!!

The Kenyan Community Abroad (KCA) is a socio-political, non-partisan organization which is registered in Washington, D.C. and Rhode Island state in the USA. It is composed primarily of Kenyans living outside Kenya. KCA was founded in March 1997 with a view to giving Kenyans abroad a platform on which to exchange views and help bring change back home. KCA seeks to facilitate the establishment of Chapters in locations around the world where there is a significant Kenyan presence.
Among the stated objectives are to:
Provide a forum where people of Kenya who reside abroad can engage in intelligent discourse on economic, political and social issues that affect Kenyans abroad and home;
Fight for transparency and accountability in the Kenya government;
Facilitate the dissemination of important policy decisions to the Kenya citizenry;
Campaign for the rule of law and democratic governance in Kenya and campaign for a modern civil society based on equality before the rule of law;
Campaign for sound and just economic policies in Kenya aimed at empowering the Kenyan populace;
Provide a forum for the sharing of the unique Kenyan cultural heritage in all its diversity and particularly inculcate in Kenyans born abroad the rich history and ethos of the people in their land of ancestry;
KCA believes that:
1. Fellow Kenyans need and deserve a clean and honest government that will bring economic, political and social growth. The Kenyan Community Abroad believes in taking the government away from a few individuals and putting it back in the hands of the people's institutions - Legislature, Executive and the Judiciary, where it belongs;
2. That Kenya is, and shall continue to be, a Republic, and shall be indivisible and shall be governed by a democratically elected government;
3. That Kenyans are a one people in their ethnic and religious diversity and that their destinies are yoked with that of their motherland;
4. That the challenges that face Kenya as a nation and as a distinguished member of the society of nations transcend any ethnic or regional interests and that KCA shall only champion the cause of one nation and one people;
5. That Kenya must pursue and openly cultivate the growth of democratic institutions enshrined in the new Kenyan Constitution;
6. That all Kenyans are equal and all have a stake in the welfare of their nation and they have a right to pursue for themselves and their family an honest living under the laws of Kenya;
7. In the sanctity of human life as the highest level of creation and in the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948 and in the various human rights covenants and other international human rights instruments.

The drunken botanist by Amy Stewart Thursday October 10, 2013 @ 6PM AT JUNIPER RESTAURANT Tickets $10 (Includes appetizers, and a cash bar featuring cocktails inspired by recipes from the book) Call Juniper @ 970.926.7001 to make reservations
The drunken botanist by Amy Stewart
Who knew that horticulture was such an intoxicating subject? In her follow-up to the New York Times bestsellers Wicked Bugs and Wicked Plants, Amy Stewart explores the odd, unusual, and surprisingly common plants that have produced the world's greatest spirits.
Sake began with a grain of rice. Scotch emerged from barley, tequila from agave, rum from sugarcane, bourbon from corn. Thirsty yet? In The drunken botanist, Amy Stewart explores the dizzying array of herbs, flowers, trees, fruits, and fungi that humans have, through ingenuity, inspiration, and sheer desperation, contrived to transform into alcohol over the centuries. Of all the extraordinary and obscure plants that have been fermented and distilled, a few are dangerous, some are downright bizarre, and one is as ancient as dinosaurs-but each represents a unique cultural contribution to our global drinking traditions and our history. This fascinating concoction of biology, chemistry, history, etymology, and mixology-with more than fifty drink recipes and growing tips for gardeners-will make you the most popular guest at any cocktail party.

Teen Mom
Kailyn Lowry Named Her Baby After Eminem
By now you've probably heard the amazing news: Kailyn Lowry gave birth to her baby — a beautiful little boy named Lincoln Marshall Marroquin! Kailyn and her husband, Javi Marroquin, chose not to find out their kiddo's gender prior to delivery, and had been struggling to find the perfect boy and girl names. Kail and Javi settled on Lincoln Marshall Marroquin a while back, and they have a very specific reason for choosing the middle name "Marshall."
You guessed it — Kailyn's newest bundle of joy is named after The Real Slim Shady, aka Eminem, double aka Marshall Mathers! A fan of Kailyn's guessed as much, and Kailyn was quick to confirm, tweeting "We were considering Holden but you got where Marshall came from. ;)"
Kailyn and Javi are both huge fans of Eminem (they've been chatting about his music nonstop), and it's hardly a surprise that they named their kiddo after a musician. Lest you forget, Kailyn's son, Isaac, is named after the Hanson brothers' Isaac Hanson (um, amazing), so she's staying on-theme! And by the way, has anyone else noticed that the first letters of Isaac, Javi, Kailyn and Lincoln are "IJKL"? So cute and alphabet-y!
Are you surprised that Kailyn named her kiddo after Eminem? Hit the comments!

AdWords Terms and Conditions Update
We're always improving the AdWords program for our advertisers. As part of that, we've updated the contractual terms that govern the relationship between advertisers and Google.
What you need to doTo continue advertising with AdWords, you'll need to accept the updated terms. If you don't accept the terms, your campaigns may be paused until you accept them. To keep your AdWords services running, we recommend reviewing and accepting the terms within your AdWords account as soon as possible.
Where to find the new terms and how to accept themWhen you sign in to your AdWords account (https://adwords.google.com), you'll automatically be taken to a page with the updated terms and conditions. You'll also see a red alert bar at the top of other screens in your account. To accept the new terms, simply follow the prompts within your account.
Outside of your account, you can review the new terms at billing.google.com/payments/termsandconditionsfinder. If you're based in the Asia Pacific region, review the new terms here instead. To review our previous terms and conditions, see below.
Not seeing the new terms when you sign into your account?Don't worry! If you're not seeing the new terms when you sign into your account, there's nothing more for you to do right now. Because we're updating the new terms on a rolling basis, you may be scheduled for a later time. Or your terms may already have been accepted by someone you've authorized to act on your behalf (for example, an advertising agency, or someone you've authorized to be financially responsible for your accounts).
What's changed?To prevent a conflict of interest, Google can't interpret the new terms for you or provide an analysis of how the previous version (see below) compares to the new. There are quite a few changes, and as with any legal document, you might consider consulting an attorney if you have legal questions. Here are some general points about the new terms:
- Accepting the new terms does not change any of your bids, budgets, or other campaign settings. As always, you'll continue to control your settings in the Campaign tab of your account.
- The updated terms accommodate new advertising products and services. For example, we now offer third-party ad serving in some situations, so you'll see provisions about how we resolve ad serving disputes.
- You'll also see updated links to our policies, and better consistency among our advertising terms globally.
- Keep in mind that if you decline the new terms, your ad serving will be paused.

With advancing years my eyesight must be failing ...
I have recently upgraded my Zimbra Desktop to v7.1.4 (build 11273). This is on a laptop running Ubuntu 11.10 64-bit. The upgrade went flawlessly.
I could swear that in the previous version, when you clicked the Preferences tab, and then clicked General under All Accounts, in the Other section on the right there was a checkbox you could check that said "Use Zimbra Desktop as default mail application", or words to that effect.
I don't see it there any more. Where has it gone? How am I supposed to make Zimbra Desktop my default email application?

Samuel Dumoulin wins stage 3 at Étoile de Bessèges
- By VeloNews.com
- Published Feb. 4, 2011
- Updated Feb. 4, 2011 at 3:01 PM EDT
Samuel Dumoulin (Cofidis) sprinted to victory in Friday's third stage at the Étoile de Bessèges in southern France.
Dumoulin, last year's winner, outkicked the Vacansoleil duo of Johnny Hoogerland and Marco Marcato, who crossed the line second and third, in the 148.5km run from Saint-Victor-La-Coste to Laudun.
Overnight leader Anthony Ravard (Ag2r) lost his race leader's jersey to Hoogerland.
A big group of about 15 riders peeled away early, but that was brought back with about 65km to go. There was another flurry of attacks before another group pulled clear in the closing kilometers, finishing a handful of seconds ahead of the chasing pack.

Winter X-Games qualifier in Bakersfield
Posted By etnies, Skip To The Comments (0)
Nov 20 2002 / Wednesday
This past weekend was a Winter X-Games qualifier in Bakersfield, California. Don Brown and I went to check out the madness and have a couple beers. The Thursday practice claimed one of our Etnies riders by the name of Ox. In the first practice, he was riding really well, but on his last practice run, he hit the first ninety-foot jump and landed too far in the flats, which meant he didn't have enough speed to clear the second ninety- footer. He came up short and broke his ankle, collar bone and separated his shoulder. The big man is on the couch once again all hopped-up on pain pills. Ox will be out of action for about six weeks.
Deegan was by far the crowd favorite, since Bakersfield has an enormous Metal Mulisha following. At least a quarter of the people were wearing something with Mulisha on it. Deegan has been doing the backflip for a couple weeks and only about four riders in the world are doing them. Brian was in the lead going into the final on Saturday night and did a backflip off the first jump that had the crowd going nuts. About four jumps later, he came back and went for another flip, didn't get enough rotation and landed on his front wheel--sending him over the bars head-first into the dirt. Very dizzy but not broken, Brian called it a night and missed the big air and step-up contest. Deegan is still in 6th place in points.
Twitch came out and only rode the step-up contest on Saturday due to a hernia he's waiting to have surgery on. Jeremy Carter came out and rode well in his first big contest since his bad crash at X-Games last year that had him out of action for about eight months. Australian Etnies rider Dayne Kinaird came out and impressed everyone with some new tricks and combinations of tricks. Dayne is on his way back to Australia for the X-Games and is in the process of getting his paperwork so he can live in So Cal for good. Dayne is the best freestyle rider in Australia and wants to ride and train with the best in the U.S.

It's really surprisingly difficult for someone who has been programming for a long time to write about programming at a level appropriate for real beginners. The first time I taught a class full of beginners at Neumont, I tried to take things as slow as possible. Then I spent the next week covering the material from the first day even slower.
So when the UGIC asked me to recommend a book to get for the participants in the Introduction to Python, I looked at all the ones I could find, but they all either assumed too much existing knowledge or covered material that would just confuse a beginner. Often both. But then Michael Bernstein pointed me to Python for Dummies.
If you're looking to teach beginners, or you're a beginner yourself, Python for Dummies is by far the best option. There's a few sections that are strikingly inappropriate for a book at its level (new-style classes!?) but it's still much, much better than any of the other books on the market in this respect. As a bonus, it's also one of the few that covers Python 2.5.

The Architectural, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry has made significant strides in improving productivity through the use of new IT applications. The net result of these changes has been increased profitability and reduced risk exposure for those firms embracing these new tools. One set of these new applications is referred to as Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) tools, which are multi-disciplinary performance models of design-construction-operation projects that are used to visualize, analyze and evaluate the performance of these projects. Building Information Modeling (BIM), a subset of VDC, integrates the work processes and information for multiple disciplines, organizations and project phases into a common model. The use of VDC technologies has proven to increase the opportunity for design iterations, reduce errors and omissions, improve project coordination, enable more effective communication of the project scope, increase site safety, and minimize field changes. The primary benefit gained through the use of VDC technologies is the ability to make design and construction changes earlier than traditionally achievable, resulting in lower cost and time impacts to the project.
Exponent has developed specialized expertise in VDC technologies. Because our Construction Consulting professionals can draw on our in-house expertise in the areas of construction management and engineering, Exponent can provide a multi-disciplinary approach to streamlining our clients' projects through the use of our VDC services. These services can be provided with little disruption to our clients' existing business or contracting practices. We are also able to leverage our VDC expertise with our extensive experience in construction claims.

one phone call i won't forget
that day began like any other, that school morning rush, trying to find everyone two pairs of socks that match and last minute lunch making. trying to get everyone out the door on time and still have some semblance of sanity.
after walking amber to school i made my way over to john's grans. i had a pair of pants she had asked me to mend. i felt bad it had taken forever for me to fix them but finally i was taking them over finished. finally. gran never fussed about stuff like that. she was happy to have family close and she understood, probably better then most, how challenging our lives were.
i would visit gran every other day...sometimes everyday. it had been so cold and i had not been by for two days. i had talked with her on the phone both days and she assured me i did not need to come over. to stay warm. she had everything she needed.
i would always ring her door bell and i would tippy toe up on the step and peek in the window of the front door and simultaneously lift the mail box lid. usually through the window i would see her making her way from the kitchen after hearing the bell. or in the reflection of a mirror that hung in her dining room i would see her getting up out of her chair. if she was expecting me and the girls for lunch i would be able to see the dinning room table set. everything ready to go. lunches always tasted so good at her house. nothing fancy. ham and buns usually. sometimes special yellow jello because porscha liked it. on cold days a tea cup set for me. always ice cream. one time i said to gran how lunch tasted so good at her house. she said it was cause someone else was making it. maybe. i think though it was because gran was in fact just that special.
usually the mail box was empty. she would read her paper before i got there and have it ready, with an elastic wrapped around it, for me to take home for john to read. that morning i tippy toed and flipped. what i saw was not the norm.
through the window i could see the bedspread from her bed across the living room chair. never had i gone to grans where the bed was yet made. the mailbox. it still held the morning paper. i had a awful feeling come across me.
for a few seconds i didn't know what to do. john was home sleeping. i did not bring her key with me. i didn't want to leave. i didn't want to go in. i wanted to rewind to monday. the first day she said it was too cold for me to worry about coming over. so i could let her know how much we loved her. how much all those little things she did meant. like how she started putting a tennis ball in with the paper for our old dog timber. how she would buy the girls chocolate bars every time she went grocery shopping. the loonies she would give the girls for the dollar store. how she bought john a pie one day cause work had him down. how she was one of my best friends. i wonder if she knew how much all those things meant?
i had my cell phone. i made a call. to john. when he answered i was crying. i didn't even have to say anything. he knew. i told him the paper was still in the mailbox.
i sat down on the cold step and cried waiting for him to come over.
when john got there with her key he went in. i could not. i needed to remember her the last time i saw her.
the next call i made was to 911. the operator asking me if she was breathing and my calling to john in the bathroom, could he could feel a pulse. his distress was heartbreaking. he was so strong that day. he could have called 911 and not went into the house and i had told him that but he said he did not want a stranger to find her.
there was the call to john's dad. nothing worse then a call like that. to have to tell someone their mom has passed away. no matter what age that is a terrible call. whether we love them or hate them. talk often to them or not much at all, your mom is your mom and at 5 or 55 losing your mom is such a sad thing.
there are a lot of things i remember about that day. the fact that her bed was still warm when i went to make it, the electric blanket was on....and i said to the police officer that was there with me, and who was helping me make the bed, that i wished she'd been in her bed nice and warm when she passed. i remember that she had her breakfast place setting ready to go right down to cereal in the bowl. i remember the laundry detergent in the scoop on the washer so she could run the load once she woke. i remember the girls crying when we told them and i remember those phone calls.
i miss gran so so often. i think about her always. we talk about her a lot and all the wonderful things she use to do. about how she liked this or that. she would have loved max. she would have spoiled him like timber....with tennis balls and arrowroots. she would be so so proud of the girls.
can you see the little crease in the picture?
it is funny because the one thing I was going to tell gran about the day we found her was that photo I had come across. the photo is about 2 inches by 4 inches and i had forgot all about it. my youngest use to take this photo to school folded in her pocket. she had a tough go with starting school and a picture of great gran in her pocket seem to give her comfort. it would have made gran smile.
we were so lucky to have her in our lives and thinking about her makes my heart smile.

Alisha, your post has me in tears. {{{hugs}}} I am so sorry...I know how this hurts. I miss my grandma and my granny more than I can express. Grandma has been gone for 18 years now. Granny, just over a year. It is so hard, and so right, what you said about it doesn't matter how old you are. They are a part of us and take a big part of our hearts with them when they go. I know that I will see my grandma and granny again some day, but while I wait, my heart hurts from the moments we're not having together now.
I can feel your heartache in your post...it echoes mine. You're in my prayers.

Dancing With The Stars
Kendra Wilkinson Eliminated! It's About Time? DWTS Season 12, Week 7
Just when you think you know what's going to happen, something that was supposed to happen two weeks ago happens.
Kendra Wilkinson & Louis van Amstel were eliminated from Dancing With the Stars Season 12 right after one of their better dances, an elegant Tango to "Jealousy." Now she's probably pretty jealous of Romeo Miller, who was already so out the door he was rapidly plugging his upcoming film in case those were the last words he got to say.
Were Romeo & Chelsie Hightower saved out of sympathy for their scoring snafu? Did Kendra's fans get complacent, assuming she was safe? Were Kirstie Alley & Maksim Chmerkovskiy ever really in jeopardy or is their combined performance power going to propel them into the finale no matter how they dance?
It came down to Kendra & Louis vs. Chelsea Kane & Mark Ballas. The late-blooming flower was the one to wilt her way off the dance floor.
Read on for a full recap of the Week 7 Results Show:
Encore dance: Len Goodman said the judges chose Team Chelsea's Cha-Cha-Cha as the encore dance. We see Chelsea Kane & Mark Ballas, Ralph Macchio & Karina Smirnoff, and Romeo & Chelsie Hightower do their sexy black pleather work again. This dance is much better than the other team's Cha-Cha-Cha. Why did they get the same scores?
Nicki Minaj performs: The gorgeous green-haired rapper sang "Moment 4 Life" as Lacey Schwimmer, Chelsie Hightower, Kiki Nyemchek, and Sonny Pederson danced. So that means Chelsie had to learn three dances this week — the team Cha-Cha-Cha, her Samba with Romeo, and this dance. Go girl!
Ballerina Patricia Zhou: In the first "Spotlight Segment" of the season, we met a 17-year-old ballerina named Patricia Zhou, who has only been ballet dancing for four years. Patricia currently studies at the prestigious Kirov Academy of Ballet and has just been accepted at the Royal Ballet of London.
Wayne Brady performs: This week's "Macy's Stars of Dance" was a tribute to the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, in celebration of what would've been his 78th birthday. (It's also Cheryl Burke's birthday!) Wayne Brady starred in the number, which was choreographed by creative directors Kevin and Marcel Wilson. James Brown's grandkids were in the audience in celebration.
Pros talk to partners: The six couples sat down and discussed what they need to do to advance. It's like a meeting with your boss, trying to find a way to get a raise. The pros also asked the celebs what they wanted from them, their leaders. Kirstie wants more validation. Kendra wants Louis to keep pushing her. Chelsea likes how Mark always keeps it fun, even though the time commitment is going to double and triple. Hines says Kym is choreographing hard routines for him.
James Blunt performs: The guy who put "You're Beautiful" in our heads for what seems like forever has a new song out called "I'll Be Your Man." In honor of "Ballroom Greats" week, Amateur US Latin champions Val Chmerkovskiy (Maks's brother!) and his partner Daria Chesnokova danced. Val is cute. If there's ever another opening for a new pro, pick him! James Blunt isn't bad either.
Who goes home? In a surprising move, Romeo & Chelsie were declared safe, leaving Kendra & Louis, Kirstie & Maks, and Chelsea & Mark as the three couples "in jeopardy." Len said Kirstie needs to become more consistent. He said Kendra was a late-blossoming girl. Len said Chelsea is one of the most talented girls of the show and he'd be shocked if she were not to return. Kirstie & Maks were declared safe, leaving Kendra vs. Chelsea.
Kendra's parting words: She thanked Louis for sticking with her and not fighting her. (She did all the fighting with Carrie Ann Inaba!) She was proud of lasting seven weeks and Louis was proud of her, too. "Baby Hank, I'm coming home for you," Kendra said. She may not be the best dancer, but she is the best mom. Awww!
