There was a lot of excitement when we wrote about the Greasemonkey script that could be used to switch between multiple Gmail accounts. At that time Thilak commented about a Firefox extension that basically accomplished the same task. With it you create user profiles that you can switch between, and it uses a different set of cookies for each of the profiles.
Since most sites store session information in cookies this is a good method for switching between multiple accounts, whether it be for email, shopping, or just about anything. That's when it hit me that you can manipulate cookies using JavaScript as well, and I figured there had to be a way to create a bookmarklet to do almost the same thing as the extension.
Before we dive into the bookmarklet lets take a look at the Firefox extension more in depth:
–Firefox Extension–
The extension is called CookieSwap, and once installed you can create multiple profiles that can be used to manage different identities from around the web. They are all controlled from the Status Bar where you can select which identity you want to use.
This is great for switching between multiple email accounts without needing to login to each one, as well as making it easier for several different people to all use the same browser. For example, each person in your family could have their own profile, and then each of them wouldn't have to constantly bother with logging in and out of websites.
The good news is that all of your information is stored in a cookie, which ensures that no one can see your password in plaintext. Well, that's at least the case for sites that are designed properly.
One downside that I've found to using this is that there's no way to restrict the cookie swapping to a particular site. The first time you create a new profile you'll start with a blank slate, and you'll need to go login to all the sites you want enabled for that particular profile. So it may not be the optimum solution if all you want to do is switch between several different accounts on one particular site.
We figured there had to be a way to create a bookmarklet to swap between cookies as well, but on a per site basis. As always we didn't want to reinvent the wheel if we didn't have to, so we searched around to see what we could find. Jesse Ruderman came to the rescue with a bookmarklet that he wrote to transfer cookies from one browser to another. We took that bookmarklet, modified it a bit, and created something that we think you'll enjoy.
Here's how it works. First you'll need to drag this link into your bookmarks, or right-click on it and select the bookmark option:
Now head on over to the site you want to "backup" the cookies for. Click on the bookmarklet you just created, and you should see something like this:
Bookmarking that will store your existing cookies for that site in the form of a bookmarklet. To restore the particular cookies for the site just run that bookmarklet.
Important: You must be on the site corresponding to the bookmarklet before running it. Otherwise your the cookies will not be updated. For example, if you backed up your Yahoo! cookies make sure you are on the Yahoo! website before running the bookmarklet.
In the example pictured above I was logged into Yahoo!, I ran the "Backup Cookies" bookmarklet to save my existing cookies. I was then able to logout of Yahoo! and run the new bookmarklet to restore all of my login credentials. It's really that simple.
It's pretty cool how something as simple as cookies can be used to restore your login status, but it's something you also want to be careful with. Doing this would also mean that if the information ended up in the wrong hands that it could do some severe damage. For security reasons I recommend that you be especially cautious if you synchronize your bookmarks with a third-party online service.
Hat tip to Thilak for pointing out the Firefox Extension!

This cozy Vermont cabin is kept toasty warm with a wood stove which is aided by galvanized ceiling fans available exclusively from Barn Light Electric. The fans help circulate the heat from the stove throughout the cabin and to the loft space above. The galvanized finish is repeated on all of the lights throughout the small cabin to give a complementary feel to the fixtures.

Il governo della città: una riforma tradita
A radical reform improved the government of towns and cities in Italy at the start of the 1990's. Mayors were elected by citizens; they appointed their own executives and received «guides and checks» from Councils. That model had nevertheless already started to worsen at the end of the 1990's. Collusion between politics and administration was returning and town and city councils became increasingly less useful. Further examples of this deterioration in urban governance are seen in the legislation (i.e. its steps forwards and backwards) on local public services and cultural heritage.

I am brand new here, but have read all of the technique articles on the website. The articles have been great for my game, but my drives have plateaued right at 300 feet--thrown on a football field of course.
My question spurs from me practicing my drives today. I was driving like normal, but I threw one drive that was noticeably different. I threw about 75 feet further then before and now I am trying to figure out how I did it. I am pretty sure the reason I threw farther was related to grip. I normally throw with what I think is a forked grip. It is a power grip but my ring finger is pressed on top of my pinky.
When I throw with this grip, it almost feels like my rip point is actually my pinky and ring finger, when I know it is supposed to be my index finger. However, I am getting most pressure on the rim from my ring and pinky. When I threw my long drive it, it seemed like I gripped the disc a little differently. For some reason, I really felt the rip point off of my index finger and I felt more "forward" on the disc for some reason (if that makes sense). I got a lot more snap and it was a beauty of a drive. Anyway, any suggestions to how I can do it again? Or should I be looking some place else besides grip for the added distance. Sorry this is long, but I am looking forward to some suggestions.

Ban the sale of shark fin soup in Tennessee
Sharks are a huge part of our oceans food chain. If sharks become extinct, other fish will over-populate the world. They play an important role and are misunderstood, majestic creatures that have a bad reputation as "man-eaters". Sharks are disappearing from our oceans and need to be protected. They are captured, ruthlessly stripped of their fins, and thrown back into the ocean to slowly drown. Millions of sharks are killed every single year. New York just banned shark fin soup, I know we can too! And they had many more restaurants that sold it. We can help protect these beautiful creatures! Every bit helps!
- Governor
Bill Haslam
Sharks are very important to the ocean's food chain. Millions of sharks are killed every year just for their fins. If Tennessee bans shark fin soup, hundreds to thousands of sharks will be saved. Please ban shark fin soup in the state of Tennessee. We love our sharks.

Grateful Dead
So I was listening to 8/10/82 Iowa City and I was there and it was a great show and I'm listening to It Must Have Been The Roses and singing along and getting into it and then realized that this was my bathroom break song and I probably missed it and then that maybe the bathroom break that we all took was during the very best version of our bathroom break song ever and we would have loved that song and maybe it would have become one of our favorites but we will never know because we were on bathroom break.
Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)
Walt Whitman-Song of Myself
; )
Black Peter is one of my favorites. There's a moment during the song when the crowd is really quiet, and the only sounds are Jerry singing and strumming his guitar. WoW!!! And, why would anyone go on a bathroom break during this song? They'd rush back out for the last song only to be treated to.........'Day Job" or something. What a waste!
I can't believe people felt black peter was a bathroom break song. I always thought it was such a treat to hear that song. I remember that was one of the first songs that really hit me hard when I was first getting into the Dead. It is such a good, powerful song.
I don't remember the story, so I guess you'll have to tell it.
that's up there with Black Peter, you know. I think you should tell the Black Peter/GDH Marathon story next, to keep things even.
So interesting to read so many different opinions.
As the years went by, many songs became less interesting, or less likely to be launching pads or the sort of collective exploration that got me on the bus in the early '70s.
I have a story izzie will find annoying/amusing: Last month my niece, a talented bassist, sat in with me and the Zen Tricksters on a boat cruise around Manhattan. We played "Watching the Detectives" (Caitlin is a major Elvis Costello fan) and "Season of the Witch." After the set was over, she said she really liked the song we played immediately after she left the stage.
Friends, that song was "Black Peter."
Which has never been a bathroom song for me, no matter how vehemently some of my friends oppose it.
For the few shows that I saw it seemed like Jed was always in the first set. Not that I despise the song, but it was more like "not again" and provided a good time for a break.
SOTM, which I regret now . . . did someone really put Minglewood here? say it ain't so . . .
Walkin Bathroom Blues
I swear I knew a ton of people who called it that too, funny.
"The bus came by and I got on, that's when it all began.."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/9/2012 (1808 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A Winnipeg man has been sentenced to seven years in prison for beating his boyfriend to death with a golf club after learning the victim was HIV-positive.
Michael Pearce, 43, was convicted of manslaughter earlier this year following a jury trial. He returned to court Wednesday morning for sentencing.
His lawyers had argued he should be given a penalty of 18 months time already spent in custody and released immediately. The Crown was seeking a total of 12 years for what they called a horrific attack much closer to murder given the violence involved.
Queen's Bench Justice Shawn Greenberg ultimately gave Pearce another five-and-a-half years behind bars in addition to the time he previously served before being released on bail.
Stuart Mark, 36, was found bludgeoned to death inside his Alfred Avenue home in January 2007. He had been struck at least 58 times with the weapon, court was told.
"Stuart was very special... kind-hearted, trusting, generous, friendly and an optimist," his mother, Gemma Ring, told court earlier this year in a victim impact statement. "My son was taken from me much too soon and I miss him with all my heart."
The victim's sister, Sandra Mark, told court she continues to be haunted by the way her brother died.
"How horribly scared, confused and frightened he must have been, being attacked, not knowing how to defend himself," she said.
The case against Pearce was largely based on a confession he made to police in July 2007. He claimed the killing took place after he became upset when Mark revealed he was HIV positive.
But Pearce later claimed police had "coaxed" him into making a bogus confession. He told jurors he overdosed on 14 Tylenol No. 3 tablets just prior to giving his statement to police.
There were no forensic or eyewitness links to the slaying.
The homicide went unsolved for several months. Pearce was interviewed on several occasions and eventually gave the videotaped confession, which jurors were shown during the trial.

Sprinkle these gourd hurricanes throughout the tabletops for a festive and romantic glow.

ThisOne's recommendation
Orange and black crepe streamers, plastic spiders on cotton webs and a punch bowl filled with dry ice is sooooo First Grade Homeroom. For your sophisticated Halloween Dinner party, go with decorations that are a little more elegant from Smith & Hawken. Hurricanes shaped like pumpkins are pretty and have glass that's "seeded," so flickering candlelight in enhanced.

It is the last week of the school holidays and I have been having such a great time relaxing, spending time with my family, going to the beach and basically doing very little! Here are a few of the pictures that I shared on Instagram of my week at my most favourite beach in the world, Mooloolaba!
When we arrived at the beach I had a terrible cold and the weather was dreary but I didn't care because I was at the beach!
Thankfully the days just got better and better and by the end of our week the sun was shining and it was so warm, with some days reaching 25C or 77F, not bad for the middle of winter!
We really did have a magical holiday together!
So, what have you been up to this week?
If you have been crafting, baking, planning, gardening or organising a party this week I would love it if you could share your favourite post of the week with me at this weekend's Linky Party.

No mazy thought provoking insights today, its my Birthday (Dec 1st) and Ive recorded a mix documenting BBB's 5 years as a label. A label in recent months I have begun to progressively doubt, they say that you're often your own worse critic, well thats definitely the case with me, however as I started to select the tracks, which range from Techno, though House to Electronica, it started to become very evident that the artists we have worked with have written some damn fine music.

So far the response to our 14th record has been really exciting with Laurent Garnier, Joris Voorn, Tensnake, Carl Craig amongst others all showing their support for the music. Which to be honest is a huge relief as you're never quite sure if the rest of the world (internet) will agree with your enthusiasm for the music. Admittedly Fortunate War's sound is probably not on message with a lot of whats out there, sorry, but when you've got greats such as those mentioned above giving it a seal of approval, who cares...

At times running a record label seems like the most illogical use of ones precious time and resources, especially when your primary focus is supporting relatively unknown artists and trying to get the music buying public to try something new. For those who dont have their own label its a bit like trying to get all your mates to agree where to go for New Years Eve, an impossible task of conflicting opinions, tastes and fear of the unknown...what if its no good!

LAN Ethernet vs WAN Ethernet
I own a Cisco 892W router. The router has 2 WAN ports and 8 switch ports.
Now I know -
-WAN ports can create sub interfaces, assigne IPs, cannot be assigned to a VLAN - sounds very much like a routing port. (sh interface gives - Hardware is PQII_PRO_UEC)
-Switch ports are for VLAN assignment, trunking, IP assigment etc,. (sh interface gives Hardware is Fast Ethernet)
I know they are different but at the same time confuced what the difference are? I also know on some 3xxx series switchs you could say "no switchport" and translate a switch port to a layer 3 port. But on 892W you can't do this? Struggeling to understand the difference.
Appreciate if someone could help me understand this
Thanks in advance,
The two WAN ports what you are saying are L3 ports which means you can assign IP and configure sub-interfaces for different networks nothing but VLAN's
And you can terminate the WAN link (ethernet handoff from provider) can connect to these ports and do routing.
The remaining 8 switch ports, it is actually a switch module available on that router, these are L2 ports you can not assign any Ip address to it neither do subinterfaces.
The two WAN ports are designed only for WAN network purpose thus do L3 job also.
Please rate all the helpfull posts.

|Background information
|Birth name

|Also known as
|Dickie Wells

|Count Basie, Bill Coleman
William Wells (c.June 10, 1907 - November 12, 1985), more famous under the name of Dicky Wells (sometimes Dickie Wells), was an American jazz trombonist.[1][2]
Dickie Wells was born in Centerville, Tennessee; his brother was trombonist Henry Wells. He moved to New York City in 1926, and became a member of the Lloyd Scott band.
He played with Count Basie between 1938–1945 and 1947-1950. He also played with Cecil Scott, Spike Hughes, Fletcher Henderson, Benny Carter, Teddy Hill, Jimmy Rushing, Buck Clayton and Ray Charles.
In his later years, Wells suffered a severe beating that affected his memory, but he recovered and continued to perform. He played frequently at the West End jazz club at 116th and Broadway, most often with a band called The Countsmen, led by alto saxophonist Earle Warren, his colleague from Count Basie days. A trademark was Wells's "pepper pot" mute which he made himself.
He died on November 12, 1985, in New York City. Shortly after his death, Wells's family donated his trombone to Rutgers University.

Wells had two stints with Basie - 1937-42 and again after the war. His playing during the first was brilliant and established him as a major trombonist and influence on other trombonists. After he rejoined Basie his playing was insipid and uninspired, probably due to alcohol abuse. This same change in his playing is also evident in later recordings as a studio musician for Jimmy Rushing in the late 'fifties.

Here some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on SN.
Trouble at school - I am probably being unreasonable, but I don't know what to do.(309 Posts)
Ds (probably AS) has high stress levels throughout school, but masks it completely (to the point where EMS can't make any recommendations as he doesn't show any stress)
He doesn't do homework - was added stress at home, on top of trying to deal with the fall out of post-school meltdowns.
He hasn't done spellings for ages, and as far as I know, this has never been an issue.
Yesterday, I couldn't get ds to school, the TA came out to talk to him, but he was beside himself, and she felt that forcing him in would be humiliating and counterproductive, so we started fresh today with a reward chart, so far so good.
Today, for some reason, his teacher decided that all dc who hadn't done their spellings would be kept in at break to do them - fair enough. Except the last time this happened to ds was weeks ago, so there is no consistency, and this was out of the blue for him.
He has come out of school furious, swearing, lashing out etc.
I went to talk to the teacher (upset and probably came across as angry) and explained that at home, he is extremely dependant, won't do anything without either us supervising heavily or (on a bad day), doing it for him, as we know otherwise it won't be done, and things like teeth and inhalers are non negotiable. As most days are bad at the moment, spellings come way down the list of priorities.
She insists that he either takes responsibility for his spellings, or he does them in his break time. And that's that.
I am more than happy for everyone to point out how unreasonable I am, but please give me clues how to deal with this effectively for ds.
Part of me thinks school is unreasonable for springing this upon him without giving him (and us) some warning that this was going to happen - particularly the day after he refused to go in because he finds things so stressful.
This is the latest in a long list of little niggly things with this teacher. Because he shows no stress at all at school, I'm sure they just have him down a naughty boy, who is playing us all along like fools.
Please come and tell me what to do, and give me because it's going to be a loooong night
I know spellings are important, that maybe doesn't come across there ^^
Sorry it's so long
Have lots of and be thankful the end of term is nearly here with, hopefully, a more understanding teacher in September. On a more practical note can you go above the teacher to the SENCO or headteacher perhaps to ask for reasonable adjustments to be put in place. I hope some-one witnessed the after-school behaviour or does he contain it till you've left the playground.
Ugh, sorry, forgot more.
Ds sees loss of break time as a punishment, whether it is or not.
Given his reaction to inconsistency, I'd be tempted to say, OK, let him do them at break, but please make sure you're there to do them with him every week and not just when you want to make a point because DS needs to know the rules for this and know that they will be applied.
The SENCO is the HT, when it comes to ds's teacher she gets quite defensive (understandably), as ds seems fixated with her, in a bad way.
When ds comes out of school, I can gauge how stressed he is, as can a couple of other mothers. School don't seem to see this at all.
He goes very still and expressionless, with his hoody pulled over his eyes.
In school he appears fine, but I wonder if I would see him as stressed.
He doesn't want anything put into place, as it might mark him out as different, which makes it all trickier.
We are doing 5 point scale with him, he also does this in school with the TA. It's not making a difference yet!
In fact, thank her for kindly offering to give up her break and preparation time to host a weekly spellings club and ask if she would like a contribution for snacks etc.
He lashes out when we're back home.
I would go in with strategies which they can use with him ie a weekly routine which has all important things covered such as spelling, reading, tables etc.
Get the diagnosis as soon as you can.
Try to also find a leaflet aimed at profesionals to help them yo understand ASD to read through.
Dd3 would have reacted in the same way.
Keeping children in at play time is fair enough but they should
a] Know that it will happen if they dont do the work.
b] Actuallly not do the work and not be kept in just because half the class havent done it.
c] Understand what extreme stress this causes some children.
Free time has been cut to the bone at school and personally I hate it when staff keep kids in. They need some time to let off steam!
I dont blame you for having a moan
Diagnosis is at least 18 months away and isn't guaranteed.
I spoke to someone on the NAS helpline this morning, who said that a private diagnosis is pointless, as where I live the LA won't recognise it, so it won't be used to put anything into place.
Weekly timetable is a good idea, and thanking the teacher for giving up her time, I'll go in tomorrow and suggest the timetable.
ds1 ended up being permanently excluded when his school had the bright idea to give him a break-time exclusion. It is not a great idea to punish kids with ASD by messing around with their routine.
She comes out with things that he does wrong - he had to sit out of pe for 5 mins because he was being silly and giddy (at home, silly and giddy is usually a sign of stress and a precursor to a meltdown). I asked ds what happened, he didn't know.
She says that when she hands out homework, he says that he doesn't have any to gloat to his friends. I asked him about this, he says he reminds her that he doesn't have hw.
So either the situation is being misinterpreted, or ds is lying and telling me what he wants me to hear. Maybe he is more able than we think but really is playing us? How do I know if that's happening?
Could I ask why it will be 18 months until he receives a diagnosis (which is disgraceful)? We've just had a complaint held up by the Health Ombudsman over excessive waiting times - over six months for diagnosis from paed appointment.
The waiting time is 2 years from the start. I live in an area which is notoriously bad for autism diagnosis.
Apparently there can sometimes be an injection of funds, so things move a bit quicker, but generally the waiting time is two years.
We have also been warned that he probably won't get a diagnosis because he may not tick all the relevant boxes.
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
Bugger, just wrote a long reply, had to research thrushes for ds and lost the blooming lot! Lucky for us (not the poor bird though) ds found an injured baby bird, so is happily looking after it, all thoughts of school forgotten!
Yes, the paed sent a letter saying that ds is highly likely to get a dx of ASD (although he didn't say that to me in the appointment), and that any necessary support should be put in place.
In a fit of arseness, I may have politely invited her to look at a video I took of him, zoned out as he mostly is after school, and not listening/hearing us. No doubt she'll see a naughty boy
I spoke to my sil who is a TA, and have come up with a plan.
I'll make an appointment with the teacher and the ht to discuss his transition into the new school year with a new teacher.
I'll point out that they can't implement changes (such as missing break for spellings when it's previously not been an issue) and expect ds to cope with it. He needs warning, and we need to know at home so we can discuss it with him.
Despite many chats, he can't get beyond missing break = punishment, so I think doing spellings with a TA would be easier for him to cope with.
Sil also suggested (but not sure if it would work) that we ask the new teacher to visit ds on his territory, maybe at our field, so he sees ds in his element, and give him an opportunity to bond outside school briefly, and hopefully avoid ds's murderous thoughts towards teachers.
Sil also suggested that ds's interest in animals and nature could be used to reintroduce homework, by setting individual homework that incorporated whatever it was he needed to do in animal form.
I'm really disappointed that EMS have backed out, but I have been told that this is quite typical for dc with HFA.
I read a blog that had a quote in it about trying to bash square pegs into round holes, and the only result will be a damaged peg. I wish people would realise this.
I like that quote too, we have it up in the house and I gave it to Dd3's HT!
"Autistic people are the ultimate square pegs, the problem with pounding a square peg into a round hole is not just that the hammering is hard work, Its that you are damaging the peg"
The teacher sounds awful . She doesnt get it at all and needs some decent training!
She is one of those teachers that thinks inclusion means every child has to do everything!
I would recommend you put in a formal complaint about excessive waiting times to your NHS Trust - it certainly got things moving for us - assessment in six months rather than 12. I know we all have so much crap to deal with but I've found writing letters of complaint to be quite cathartic as well as effective.
That's the one Ineed
The trouble with ds is that he wants to do everything like everyone else (not a trouble, but makes things tricky), he doesn't want to do anything that makes him different, so extra breaks etc on the one hand take away a stress, but add them in other ways.
I'm at cygnet course tomorrow, I'm going to see if they have any sneaky destressing ideas that might help ds.
JJ, I'm worried about bringing a dx forward, in case we don't get one. I know that sounds silly, but at the moment, not getting a dx would feel dreadful. But in the meantime, I don't think ds is getting the support he would with a diagnosis, but what if he doesn't get one.
I like that quote!
And agree with JJXM about a complaint about the waiting times. It's the only way that they'll have on record that people mind. Forward copies to local councillor and MP, even if they don't give a hoot, too.
I got both of mine through the system in way under 2 years, with over a year between referrals.
If he doesn't get a diagnosis, what happens? I'm worried that we'll be left floundering.
He has some traits but not others, which I'm told will go against him.
And we had the problem with wanting to do everything like everyone else with DS1. It was a real problem with maths because he'd refuse work aimed at his level then make a big deal about the regular class work being too easy and boring. (It's a relief that he has no problems with being given more advanced work than the rest of his class at his new school - he's able to accept that everyone there is "different" and not all in the same way)
And x-posted - I wasn't expecting anything much from DS1's diagnosis. I was expecting a bit quirky and impulsive. We ended up with a massive shopping list and a lot of letters after his name!
What is EMS ?
Enhanced mainstream services. In-school support without a diagnosis.
I think once there's a diagnosis, ASCOSS can get involved.

School is now in session. Every parent's back-to-school checklist surely included pencils, knapsacks, and a visit to the pediatrician. But did it include a trip to the eye doctor?
Eighty percent of learning is through the visual system. So surely an eye exam should be at the top of the back-to-school list. Yet a recent survey showed that 76 percent of children below the age of 5 have never had a comprehensive eye exam with an eye doctor!
Most parents rely on school and pediatrician vision screenings, assuming these to be eye exams. But that's like having your blood pressure checked in place of a complete physical examination. Unlike a thorough eye exam, a standard vision screening using just an eye chart identifies about five percent of vision problems in children.
Vision screenings only check a child's distance vision, that is, her ability to see well at 20 feet away. Yet the child's ability to see well up close, such as while reading a book or using the computer - so very critical for good performance in the classroom - is rarely assessed in screenings.
Furthermore, an eye chart also can't check how well children coordinate their eyes when reading, how easily they can adjust focus from near to far distances, or their ability to move their eyes across a line of print without losing their place.
When children have eye teaming or coordination problems, they may actually see double. A small misalignment of the two eyes may rob children of the energy needed to concentrate and get meaning from what they read. Difficulty with eye focusing skills means that a child may be unable to keep the print clear while reading. Children may also be challenged shifting their visual focus back and forth, near and far, when copying information from the blackboard. A child's inability to appropriately track words while reading may also contribute to poor learning performance. One of the most common vision problems experienced by children is being farsighted. Farsighted kids can usually see the blackboard fine, but get tired when they read up close.
It is important to understand that only an eye doctor can perform eye tests that can detect and rule out conditions such as glaucoma, tumors, lazy eye, and mild farsightedness. In addition, conditions that are becoming increasingly prevalent in children, such as diabetes and high blood pressure and cholesterol, can be detected in the eye - by an eye doctor - long before other symptoms of these serious conditions are evident elsewhere in the body.
And what of the many hours children now sit in front of computers and videogames? Children spend an average of four or more hours a day engaged in these activities, which strain the eye and can lead to Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) in children just as in adults. CVS is a serious vision issue that can cause many symptoms, including any of the following: blurred vision, headaches, sleepiness, nearsightedness, and neck and shoulder pain.
Another concern in regard to children's vision is sun protection - or lack thereof. While 68 percent of adults wear sunglasses outdoors, fewer than 30 percent of children do so.
It would seem that most adults give better protection to their own eyes than to their children's eyes. Vision problems can be ruled out with a thorough eye exam by a pediatric eye doctor. Visit www.COVD.org to find a doctor near you and www.children-special-needs.org/parenting/preschool/pediatric_eye_exams.html to learn details of what a comprehensive, pediatric eye exam includes.
Here are some tips for keeping your whole family's eyes healthy.
1. Start eye exams early. A child's first eye exam should be at 6 months of age, and he should see the eye doctor again between ages 3 and 5. Yearly eye exams are needed thereafter (unless more frequent visits are specifically indicated).
2. Look for signs of hidden vision problems. Do not expect children to come to you and tell you what their visual symptoms are. Children only have one set of eyes and have never seen differently. Even those who are walking around seeing double or cannot clearly see the words in their books rarely complain. Be on the alert for headaches, poor eye-hand coordination, a dislike of reading, excessive rubbing of the eyes, sensory integration dysfunction, reading problems, or difficulty focusing, paying attention, or sitting still - especially when reading. Any of these common symptoms could indicate vision problems
3. Encourage "visual hygiene." Make sure books and videogames are never closer to the eye than an arm's length. The computer, as well, should not be too close; 18-22 inches is usually a comfortable distance, depending on the size of the screen and other variables. Also take frequent breaks while reading, studying, playing videogames, or on the computer. A one-minute break every 15 minutes is ideal, but never spend more than 30 minutes at a time before taking a break. This break should be spent giving the eyes a good "stretch" by alternately looking at something about 20 feet away and something nearby.
4. Use computer glasses if needed. Behavioral developmental optometrists (eye doctor specialists) can prescribe glasses specifically for computer use that can help lessen the symptoms of CVS.
5. Schedule annual appointments at the eye doctor. One in four children struggle with reading and schoolwork because of undiagnosed vision problems. Every child deserves a comprehensive eye exam, one that includes a thorough evaluation of all tasks that directly affect reading comfort and efficiency. When you book your child's annual (or perhaps biannual) appointment with the dentist, remember to book the eye doctor appointment, too.

If your child has a fever or complains of a stomachache, chances are a quick trip to the doctor's office and perhaps a prescription will do the trick. But what if it's something more serious, something psychological?
Do 'virtual visits' with dermatologists work, and can I do one for my child?

My only complaint is that the doctor still hasn't gave me her results/diagnosis on the recent blood work and I have called twice.
The doctor was very thorough. She was patient and answered all of our questions. I would definitely recommend her to family and friends.
we had an 8:00am appointment. we wanted in the exam room for exactly an hour. When the Doctor finally showed up there was no apology for being late. what would have happened if I were an hour late to the appointment?
very pleased with the care we receive
All staff including the physician were respectful, provided information clearly, and were easy to speak with. They spent ample time for questions and answers and assured understanding.
very informative
as always they have done a great job
we waited an hour and ten minutes to see the provider.
I do not care for Dr Gurtunca whatsoever. She has always talked down to me at my son's appointments for years. he is about to turn 18 in a couple months and has been seeing her for years. she comes off as condescending.
I would recommend Dr. Grutunca to any parent. She cares for my child as I would.
waited almost an hour after his appointment time to be seen
My only complaint is that our appointment was for 2:00 and we waited roughly 40 min. to be seen. I u set stand things come up and delay time but it's hard to make a young child sit in a room and wait that long. having said that, I could not be more happier with the time the Dr. took with us.
The doctor did not review my daughters chart prior to the visit. She was unaware of critical developmental milestones that were discussed in previous 2 visits ie. breast development. This is critical to her care from an endocrinologist. This was our 3rd visit to see her and she showed no recollection or knowledge of information discussed during prior 2 visits. We will not be returning to see her as she was unable to provide helpful care and was very impersonal. She offended my daughter discussing her suboptimal growth.
The endocrinology staff is always helpful, understanding and very knowledgable about the issue present by me and my daughter. Dr Gurtunka in particular is fantastic. The Diabetic educators are also fantastic.
Bedside manor was poor
Our doctor does not seem to believe my concerns are valid. Some of her answers were not even answering the question that was asked and others are treated as though the concern is a problem with parenting and not a medical issue. I do not believe she adequetly has a good understanding of my daughter's condition but has been insistent on us staying with her care. when I had called to schedule this appointment I had scheduled it with a different doctor. our current doctoor had the office call me and ask me to schedule with her again. I did that, but after this visit our next appointment is scheduled with a different doctor. I believe we need a different perspective for the best way to care for our daughters diagnosis.
Dr. Grutunca is an exceptional doctor.
It was very refreshing to have the doctor be straight forward and honest about my sons health.
We went to Erie to see the Dr. The facility is very nice. We had no wait time to be taken to a room. There was very little wait time for the Dr. We felt that the doctor didn't review the information on the forms I filled out. She asked repeatedly for family history, but my son is adopted. I wrote that on the forms and I said that to her. She kept asking about my and my husbands family history, which wouldn't help with our son. We felt that she talked down to us and that we couldn't really talk and explain when she asked questions.
Pleased with the concern for my child and explaination of issues.
I was very thankful that Dr. Gurtunca was willing to look for answers to issues that otherwise have not been addressed. She was professional and courteous, which I greatly appreciate.
All she did was ask questions and lecture us about what food we eat. She gave no view into if my child was in good health and why she wanted her to take all of these hormone tests. I had to look it all up online. She needed to explain why they were doing tests. All she said was she wanted tests and we would discuss treatment once we get results.
I would highly recommend Dr. Gertunca to other families. I'm new to the area and am very pleased with this and all UPMC specialists we have encountered so far.
dr gurtunca was very nice & I felt listened to my concerns. I do wish though that when Drs enter a room they should introduce themselves to you & your child. also the issues we were talking about - early puberty - are not ones I have discussed or explained in detail to my daughter yet (she just turned 9) so it was uncomfortable to answer some of the questions with her in the room. I would have appreciated a discussion alone with the dr after her exam.

"Breaking Bad" star Aaron Paul may have two Emmy awards under his belt and another nomination this year, but when he first started acting, he wasn't quite the thespian he is today.
On Tuesday, the actor appeared on "Tonight Show With Jay Leno," and his host didn't let him forget his more humble beginnings. To be specific, his early gig on the original "90210."
"That was actually I think ... if not my first job, one of my first jobs ever," Paul told Leno. He portrayed a high-school student who was playing the role of Romeo for West Beverly's production of "Romeo and Juliet" in the 1999 episode.
But it wasn't enough for Leno to merely discuss Paul's early experience — he also had a clip to share.
"Oh no!" the actor groaned.
He watched with a look of horror on his face as his not-quite-Emmy-worthy performance aired. "That was awful!" he declared afterward. "Oh. My. Good God."
He's come quite far with his work as Jesse Pinkman, wouldn't you say?

Rated 5 out of 5 by katythemum Excellent quality paint I have bought Farrow and Ball paint previously so already knew that it was good quality but have always had to order it. It was therefore very convenient to be able to purchase it at a local store (Chesterfield Homebase) where the staff were helpful and friendly and the product was in stock. 08 February 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Toots Brilliant Same job, different colour, samE excellent finish. Farrow and Ball EVERYTIME!! 01 February 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by theapplicator great colour and coverage Farrow and Ball paints are expensive but no other paint has quite the colours and finish that I like. I live in a period house and find the colours suit it very well. They are subtle and chalky, coverage is very good and there is a huge range. 01 December 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Noisejohn Perfect paint This is the stuff for a really high quality job. More pigment than any other paint and a very interesting choice of colours that are often quite bizarrely named. Desperately expensive though so make the design plan only need it on small walls! My wife says that it is worth it though.......so that's a result. 14 April 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by libby Excellent quality and colour Always buy F&B paint. This colour is soothing, warm and easy on the eye - definitely recommend. 03 November 2010

East London Boxing Academy's Roman Haidari continued his quest for a third national ABA title after winning his quarter final on Sunday.
Haidari beat Eastern Counties champion Harry Cornwell to reach the semi-finals, which will be held on the weekend of May 31/June 1.
Speaking afterwards, coach Umer Ali said: "Roman displayed great skill and showed championship calibre by clearly outpointing his opponent and winning every minute of every round. Roman wants to be a three time national champion and is working hard to accomplish his dream, his work ethic is second to none.
"At present we have a great atmosphere in the gym and all the boys are helping Roman prepare," added Ali.
There had been earlier success for East London Boxing Academy in Essex on Saturday, where Muhammed Ali lived up to his name and maintained his unbeaten record.
On Friday the academy saw another three fighters win at the All Stars boxing show in Harrow.
Ismail Qureshi got the evening off to a good start by beating the previously-undefeated White Hart Lane fighter Romerio.
Atsham Khan continued in the same vein, winning confidently against Oxford ABC's representative.
Zaibah Ullah followed suit, completing a hat-trick for the club with a win against home favourite Keiren O'Donnell.
Reflecting on the weekend as a whole, coach Ali said: "I am really pleased with the squad who have all won in the last few days, this is a testimony to the hard work they have put in the gym.
"I am extremely proud of all the boys, especially Ismail Qureshi and Muhammed Ali, who have been the breakthrough boys for this season and are the next breed of champions who will follow in the footsteps of Atsham and Roman to championship glory."

The celebrity tattoo artist mourns the death of her pet, sharing it on Twitter, 'My house burned down last night with my cat inside... R.I.P Valentine, you will be missed.'
Celebrity tattoo artist Kat Von D is mourning the death of her beloved cat and the loss of her life's possessions after her California home was destroyed by a fire on Sunday night, November 21. The L.A. Ink star, who is dating Sandra Bullock's ex-husband Jesse James, logged on to her Twitter.com blog on Monday, November 22 to share the devastating news.
Posting a photo of the feline, she wrote, "my house burned down last night with my cat inside... R.I.P Valentine, you will be missed." As WENN went to press, Von D had not shed details on what caused the fire or if she had been home during the incident.
Kat Von D is currently dating Jesse James, the former husband of Sandra Bullock. "I've known Jesse for a long time, since I was 22 years old. I think he's probably one of the most kind-hearted, intelligent human beings," she said about Jesse.

Tonight was leftover night. I have been making a new item whenever we have leftovers. It means little work but a spark for the meal. The only requirement tonight was to use cauliflower while it was still nice and fresh. I opened up the Pioneer Woman Cooks, looked up cauliflower and found a soup and roasted cauliflower. Since, I was matching this with the leftovers, roasted cauliflower was my choice. Instead of Panko, I used tortilla chip crumbs.
The prep time was short. The hardest part was breaking the cauliflower into small pieces and that really is not a challenge.
Roasted Cauliflower - adapted from the Pioneer Woman
1 cauliflower, cut into pieces
spray olive oil
salt and black pepper, to taste
2 teaspoons onion powder or any spice

Spray a baking sheet with olive oil.
Spread cauliflower over the baking sheet and spray the top of the vegetable.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

While cauliflower is finishing baking (last five minutes), microwave butter or melt in small saucepan.
Pour butter over crumbs in a small bowl.
Place cauliflower in small baking dishes (individual sized) and mound crumbs on top.
Bake for an additional 5 minutes or until crumbs brown.
Eat and enjoy each bite. This is delicious. For so little work, you get big taste.

SANTA ANA – A man with a criminal rap sheet crashed head-on with an Orange County Sheriff's deputy, and officials Monday said they believe the crash was intentional.
Video from the deputy's patrol car shows that the man was stopped at a red light, facing the deputy on the opposite side of the intersection of Flower and 1st Street before the crash occurred Sunday morning, said Jim Amormino spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff's department.
The driver of the car, identified as David Arauho Reyes, began to turn left when the light turn green, then appeared to change direction and headed straight for the deputy.
"He accelerates and crashes head on," Amormino said.
The impact of the crash left both the patrol car, a marked black and white vehicle, and Reyes' vehicle badly damaged, Amormino said. The deputy suffered cuts around his face and head, and struggled to get out of the patrol car after the crash.
"You can hear him struggling," Amormino said.
The deputy drew his handgun and walked toward Reyes' car to handcuff him just seconds after the crash, Amormino said. Reyes stepped out of the car with his hands in the air, he said.
"It's clearly an intentional act," Amormino said.
The deputy, who was identified by the sheriff's department only as a 12-year veteran who works with the Orange County Transportation Authority, took Reyes into custody. He was later taken to a local hospital to be treated. He has been released since.
Reyes, 25, is currently being held in Santa Ana jail on suspicion of attempted murder of a peace officer, Amormino said. He is being held without bail.
Cpl. Anthony Bertagna of the Santa Ana Police Department said Reyes is a documented gang member in Santa Ana. He had been recently released from jail on a robbery charge.
Investigators are still looking into what prompted the crash, but said Reyes is a convicted criminal who has been deported in the past. He has been previously arrested on suspicion of robbery, street terrorism, and carrying a concealed weapon.
Authorities are looking into alcohol or drugs played a role in the collision, Amormino said.

Does anyone have any fun or interesting maps that they'd like to share? I know it's kinda cliche' for geographers to have a lot of maps, but I have some that are pretty fun
Hey, brothers. I joined this group because I've been fascinated by maps since I was a kid. I think my interest in geography started when my parents ran a trucking company during my childhood years, so I learned to read a road atlas at an early age. I think I can still name the county seat of all 120 counties in Kentucky (my home state).
