Carey Hart: I aggravate Pink
Carey Hart has joked he's the one to instigate making up after arguments with wife Pink, as he normally starts them.
The former motocross star married the international songstress in 2006 and they have daughter Willow together.
Carey was asked a series of questions during an interview on the Australian Kyle and Jackie O radio show to determine "who wears the trousers" in the relationship.
When asked who prompts making up after a row, Carey laughed: "Me, as I'm usually the one who starts it!"
Carey then went on to reveal that the relationship is pretty equal as far as their roles are concerned. The 38-year-old star added that while Pink unloads the dishwasher, he kills spiders around the house, and drives the car when they're both in it as he is a "control freak".
Carey and the singer share duties such as taking daughter Willow to do a "number two" as well as splitting the dinner bill.
Carey and Willow appear in Pink's video for her new song True Love. The tattooed star was initially uncomfortable about his onscreen role, but soon put his reservations to one side.
"We support each other both ways," he laughed when asked what he thought when Pink mentioned he be in her video.
"I feel awkward being in front of a camera without a helmet on, but it's part of the game."
Carey loves that their family stay as a unit despite their busy schedules.
"Willow sleeps in our bed with us and we love it. We're on the road fulltime this year. We both have careers so it gets a little tricky, but if anything, I'm a little bit more flexible because I can call my shots. When she goes out on tour, she's on tour. There's no taking breaks," he explained.
"Technically I'm retired now. I don't compete any more. I still have endorsement deals and I own my own supercross and motocross team back in the States. For me it's not a necessity, it's a passion. If you're a professional surfer and you stop competing you're not going to not surf again. It's a past time. I'll be the same way."
Carey is famed for his super tattooed body. He doesn't have any plans to stop his inking as yet though.
"The only spot left is I'm finishing up a leg sleeve right now, and then my head, and that's it," he said. "I'm doing the head for sure. Not my face, but my head.
"I'm actually going to start removing some of my tattoos, not because they're not good, but it was more just bad planning. Now the technology is pretty good, so you can get them lasered off. I'm going to start with my right sleeve. It doesn't feel good, but it's all part of it!"
Carey was born and bred in Las Vegas. The star thrived in Sin City, but is well aware others don't.
"For me it was really good, as I was surrounded by desert and you need a lot of open space to ride motorcycles. It was really good, but the thing about Vegas is it can either be really good or really bad. I was an active kid, snowboarding, riding BMX, so it was good for me. But if you're the other side, where you have an addictive personality and you like to gamble, it's definitely not a good place," he said.
"Hey, if you've got endless money and great health, I guess it's a good place to be!"

Carman Adventist School in Marietta, Ga., sponsored a weekend of preaching and special music on Jan. 24-25. Bill Levin, Marietta Church pastor, worked with 15 students during the month of January, preparing them to deliver sermons from the ShareHim series.
During the weekend, students led out four services, and every grade had a part to play and participated by performing musically, collecting offering, greeting, or preaching.
"It doesn't seem that being a greeter for the church services was a very big job, or that it is anything special, but I thank God for letting me be there," said Gwyn Parker, an eighth-grader. "It was wonderful to greet all of the beautiful and amazing people who walked through the door to hear a sermon from His children. I thought it was fun to sing, greet, and watch my friends preach! I loved it and I thank you, Lord, for everyone who was there."
Sermons were delivered as a joint effort between several students. Friday evening's presenters were Olivia Paxton, a fifth-grader, and sixth-graders Neveah Mattocks and Caitryn Chemwor. For first service on Sabbath, eighth-graders Ricky Butala and Matthew Melton and sixth-grader Conner Wood preached about Jesus, "The Anointed One."
"Everyone did a good job. I saw God working through everyone who helped greet, play bells, sing, take up offering, and especially in those who preached," Butala said. "Personally, I felt like God used me to get to some of the people when I preached."
Second service's message, "How to Start Over," was delivered by seventh-graders Victoria Silva, Aleyra Gonzalez, Luana Torres, and Uccitly Caballero, who shared that no matter what, Jesus can help us start over.
In the afternoon, Alex Arriaga and Aaron Parker, both fifth-graders, teamed up to preach the first of two sermons. Following them were seventh-graders Shelby Sloan, Danielle Holland, and Karinna Bohorquez.
Holland said, "I think it was a good opportunity for us to both represent the school in a positive way and to teach people the Word of God."

Our interview with Mischka Aoki
We recently had the pleasure of having a few of our favorite questions answered by Winnie, the design-genius behind Mishka Aoki. As you know our inquiring minds are always keen to get a peek behind the veil, to see where the magic happens, in the mind of the designer.
What got you started working in children's clothing design?
It all started when I had my daughter a few years back and I couldn't find anything that looked stylish & different for her to wear when we are out. So I ended up designing dresses for her and I noticed that we always received compliments about her dresses and people always enquired where we bought the dresses. So that's how it all started!
What sources of inspiration do you continually find yourself going back to, what are some new ones that have influenced your most recent collection?
There isn't anything in particular, as every collections has quite a different inspiration.
Tell us a bit about your drive and purpose, your vision for your designs.
To provide a line that is fresh, stylish, unique and stand out from the crowd. Most labels out there do very colourful dresses for children, and though I have started to introduce a few colours along the season, I believe that girls don't have to always be in pink, nor boys in blue.
What current trends are you keeping track of? Any that you just can't stand?
There isn't any specific trends that I keep track of because I believe that we should dress based on what makes us look and feel good, not just what's deemed trendy.
How do you feel that current trend affects your design?
As per above, my designs aren't normally affected by trends, however in the beginning of the design process sometimes my colour palette is. In the end I go for what is the most beautiful, whether it's trendy or not :)
What do you feel makes your work unique?
I like anything 'couture' and so I wanted to created dresses that are unique, if a little bit over the top some might say ;) —but are still cute!
What's your favorite piece from your current line? Any all time favorite(s)?
Absolutely, my limited edition LONG LIVE THE LITTLE QUEEN dress! Though "One Day in Paris" & "One Million Dreams" dress have also been my all time favorite as well.
And that's that! Thank you so much Winnie for taking the time to chat with us!
Before you go, don't forget to visit the Mischka Aoki Facebook page and show them some love!

Bradford City have unveiled two more signings in time for the opening salvo of their pre-season slog.
Garry Thompson and Stephen Darby have joined the squad which will report back to Apperley Bridge today for fitness tests.
Thompson, a long-term Bantams target, has finally arrived four years after Stuart McCall first tried to sign him.
The 31-year-old right winger, who is equally at home at centre forward, has signed an initial one-year deal with the club having the option to extend it a further season.
Former Liverpool defender Darby, 23, will fill the gap at right back after signing for two years.
He was a team-mate of Gary Jones last season on loan at Rochdale after spending the previous year with Notts County.
Darby came up through the Anfield ranks, playing alongside Robbie Threlfall in back-to-back FA Youth Cup-winning sides, as well as skippering the reserves.
He made his competitive debut in a cup tie against Tottenham in November 2008 and appeared in the Champions' League tie with PSV Eindhoven a month later.
Darby's first senior start was also in the Champions' League against Fiorentina the following year.
But Liverpool opportunities were limited and he was sent out on loan for experience, most recently appearing in 40 games for Rochdale.
He said: "This is the first club I've signed for permanently away from Liverpool so it really feels like a new chapter in my career."
While Darby's capture has slipped under the radar, Thompson's has been greeted by fans, and the man whose goal at Wembley fired Morecambe into the Football League in 2007 cannot wait to get going.
He said: "I know that people don't like to use the term sleeping giant too often but this place really is.
"This club should be higher than where it is situated now and I want to play my part in making that happen."
City had to fend off a late bid from Rotherham for Thompson, who was released by Scunthorpe in May.
Phil Parkinson said: "He had a bit of a difficult last season there. Garry didn't play as much as he would have liked, even though he was fit all year.
"Now he really wants to get going again and looks in good shape. Get a good pre-season under his belt and then I think he will be a very important player for us."

The Kayak Paddle Keeper Kit gives you the ability to add an additional paddle keeper to your kayak. This is also great for kayaks that do not normally come with a paddle holder at the time of purchase. Simply lay your paddle along the side of your kayak, pull the bungee over the top of the paddle and secure it to the mounted bungee button. That's all there is to it! All of the mounting hardware that is required to install the Kayak Paddle Keeper Kit is included.
|Item #:
|Part Number
Good price, easy to install, simple to use. I substituted a J hook for the bungee button and added a small piece of velcro to use as a grab.
Does not include grab tab for use when hooking or realeasing cord from button keeper. Must add your own or wrestle hold of cord directly when under tension and/or wet which can be difficult and hard on hands. No major benefit from kit compared to separate items.
These are great on my Lifetime kayak. Even though it has paddle holders I found that sometimes the paddles get bumped and knocked out. With the bungee I have never had a paddle knocked lose.
Works as advertised. If you want to install it with well nuts instead of the provided rivets you will need a longer bolt for the button part.

Plop your bootloaded part on a breadboard with 16MHx xtal, two 22pf caps, 10K reset pullup resistor.Get an FTDI Basic (or equivalent), wire up the Atmega Vcc, Gnd, Rx, Tx, and Reset to the FTDI Vcc, Gnd, Tx, Rx and DTR pins.Tell the IDE you have a 16 MHz 5V Duemilanova, should be ready to go!I think there are playground examples that discuss just this.There are other options as well - such as using the FTDI on your existing Arduino to do the same (if so equipped).
I would go with this instead.http://yhst-27389313707334.stores.yahoo.net/arliandpropr.htmlThere have seen some quite recent posts here saying the right angle one is having trouble with traces breaking.This one is good & solid. I have been using mine to program prominis since August with no problems at all under Windows Vista, and I have plugged & unplugged it a lot!I think I may have missed something when I was setting up the drivers, that was a bit of a struggle the first day or two. No problems since.Where you are connecting to a breadboard, you may want to scrounge up a set of 0.025" square posts that you plug in the board, then plug this onto the pins and make your connections from there.
Why not make it foolproof? Put in a MAX1811 & LiPO battery, have them connect to a USB port for charging.Your way sounds less expensive tho. Diode wouldn't hurt.

Potts of cooking talent at the GP
From dishwasher in an English pub to head chef at Wellington's The General Practitioner, Waikanae chef Andy Potts has experienced a variety of kitchens.
The English-born chef started his career aged 15, as a dishwasher in The Crown in Birmingham, where he was introduced to a world of food outside the egg and chips he had been brought up on.
"I don't think I'd ever seen a prawn before I started working in restaurants, and there were all these flash dishes I had never seen before.
"Because we were so far inland we never really had anything from the sea until I started working. It was all fascinating."
Taken by the excitement of busy kitchens, the food, and chef's lifestyle, at 17 he enrolled at the Birmingham College of Food, Tourism and Domestic Arts, while still gaining work experience at The Crown.
After graduating, he earned a liquor licence and managed the Hussey Arms restaurant in Brownhills, England.
A year and a half later he took a sous chef position at The Old Stocks Hotel in the Cotswolds, Gloucestershire.
In 2000 he moved to The King's Head Inn in Bledington, followed by The Fox Inn in Oddington.
Working in the Gloucestershire countryside, pheasant, hare and guinea fowl became specialties, as customers would often swap their game for a pint of beer, Mr Potts said.
Since moving to New Zealand in 2006, he still enjoys creating rabbit, hare and offal dishes, although the meat is harder to come by.
"Guinea fowl tastes like chicken should [and] lamb's kidneys are beautiful if they're cooked right. They've got to be pink," he said.
"It's tough to get pheasant and it's very expensive over here, but we have done those sort of things [at the GP]".
The key to good cooking is using good ingredients, he says.
"Use fresh ingredients. Don't try and cut corners, you need to use the best stuff and take your time over it."
Mr Potts travelled to countries including Kenya, Australia, Morocco and the Maldives before he and Kiwi wife Kim, who grew up on the Kapiti Coast, moved to Waikanae seven years ago.
His favourite dishes are Mediterranean and include paella and bouillabaisse, his love of seafood stemming from the lack of it in his younger days.
Mr Potts took the head chef position at The General Practitioner soon after arriving in New Zealand, and helped create the menu with executive chef and part- owner Len Baldwin.
The restaurant won the Monteiths' Wild Food Challenge in 2008 for Mr Potts' potted pigeon dish.

Women's Rugby World Cup: Ireland beat Kazakhstan to reach semis
Last Updated: 09/08/14 10:15pm
Ireland reached the semi-finals of the Women's Rugby World Cup for the first time with a convincing 40-5 victory over Kazakhstan in Marcoussis.
Having shocked four-time defending champions New Zealand 17-14 in midweek, the Irish knew another win on Saturday would see them finish top of Pool B with a 100 per cent record.
And they proved too strong for Kazakhstan, who had lost both their opening group games and trailed 14-5 at the interval with debutant Sharon Lynch and Tania Rosser dotting down either side of a Svetlana Karatygina try.
Philip Doyle's side then ran away with the second half, scoring 26 unanswered points including a penalty try plus scores for Siobhan Fleming, Lynch again and Vikki McGinn.
Wales brought the curtain down on their campaign with an impressive 35-3 victory over South Africa.
Defeats in their opening two fixtures meant the Welsh were unable to advance from Pool C, but they at least avoided finishing bottom of the group with a bonus-point victory which included a hat-trick of tries for Sioned Harries.
The teams exchanged early penalties before Wales took a stranglehold on proceedings, with Harries scoring their opening try shortly before the interval and adding two more in the second half.
Jenny Davies also dotted down for the winners while Robyn Wilkins kicked 12 points to leave Wales above South Africa in the group standings.
In the semi-finals on Wednesday, Ireland will face England while France take on Canada.

A call for official American condemnation of Hitlerism was sounded by Rabbi William Margolis of Congregation Ohab Zedek at the Passover festival of the Jewish Fellowship held last night at the Y. M. H. A., Ninety-second street and Lexington avenue.
"Our Government must set this edifying tone–not merely for the benefit of the persecuted German Jews–but as a lesson in American history and idealism to be read and studied by American children," Rabbi Margolis maintained.
"Let the America of today and tomorrow know be the eloquent spirit of their own day that the widely sung land of the free' is not a hollow platitude but an immutable truth. Thus will America surely remain a 'home of the brave' whose courage is the fighting courage of conviction based on inviolable American idealism."
Rabbi Margolis also held that "our leaders" should begin to see "that we are developing a religion-less, godless generation, which takes the liberty' of defying justice and morality. It may some day take the liberty' of crushing 'religious liberty!' "
Dr. I. L. Bril, leader of the fellowship, and Rabbi Joseph H. Lookstein, also spoke.

RECIFE, Brazil -- With his team down to 10 men for nearly an hour, Keylor Navas made sure Costa Rica's last line of defense held firm.
The goalkeeper came through with a string of stops in regulation and extra time and then made the only save in a penalty shootout to send Costa Rica through to the World Cup quarterfinals on Sunday with a win over Greece.
After Navas dived to his right to push out the effort by Theofanis Gekas, Costa Rica defender Michael Umana scored the decisive spot kick for a 5-3 win in the shootout, sending the team sprinting down the pitch to embrace its goalkeeper. The game had finished 1-1 following extra time, after Greece equalized in second-half injury time.
"It was only a dream for us, a dream that became a reality," Navas said. "A dream that was dreamt by an entire country."
Costa Rica will play one of the tournament favorites the Netherlands in the quarterfinals on Saturday in a surprising appearance in the last eight for the small country that has a quarter of the population of Brazil's biggest city and which hardly anyone picked to even make it past the group stage.
"To the entire people in Costa Rica, those at home and out on the streets, this is for you," Costa Rica's Colombian coach Jorge Luis Pinto said. "This is a people that love football and they deserve it. ... We will continue fighting. We will go on. We see beautiful things."
The victory also delighted the majority of the just over 41,000 fans in Recife as the Brazilian locals shouted for Costa Rica throughout the game and often broke out into chants of "Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole, Ticos!" -- using the common nickname for Costa Ricans.
Greece was often booed.
Costa Rica went ahead in the 52nd minute with a coolly taken goal by captain Bryan Ruiz, but the game changed when Oscar Duarte clumsily lunged at Greece's Jose Halebos in the 66th and was sent off with a second yellow card.
Pouring forward, the Greeks did beat Navas in injury time when defender Sokratis Papastathopoulos smashed in a rebound to make the team's numerical advantage eventually pay. Yet Navas kept denying the Greeksd through extra time and then, crucially, when he dived, threw up a hand and pushed Gekas' spot-kick away at the end.
"Obviously he has to be congratulated," Greece coach Fernando Santos said of Costa Rica's 'keeper. "If it weren't for (him), the results would have been different."
Santos had been sent to the stands by Australian referee Ben Williams just before the penalties and said he watched the shootout on a television inside the stadium.
"Sadness," he said of Greece's elimination and his last game in charge of the team. "Definitely sadness. Not much (else) goes through your mind at that time."
FORTALEZA, Brazil -- The Dutch were worried about the oppressive heat at Arena Castelao, and they left it with the stifling hot conditions to thank for a spot in the World Cup quarterfinals.
An inspired tactical change during the second of two official stoppages led to a late goal from Netherlands forward Wesley Sneijder and an injury-time penalty from Klaas Jan Huntelaar in a dramatic 2-1 victory over Mexico on Sunday.
"I moved to 'Plan B' at the cooling break," said Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal, soon to be the manager at Manchester United. "That is a good way to take advantage of those breaks."
Despite scoring 10 goals in three group matches, the Dutch again started the match with a defensive 5-3-2 system. Van Gaal made the switch to a more attacking 4-3-3 formation in the second half and tweaked it further when referee Pedro Proenca stopped the match in the 76th minute to allow players to rehydrate.
That helped turn the match around and extend Mexico's second-round curse to six straight World Cups.
"Unbelievable," said Arjen Robben, the Netherlands forward that earned the late penalty. "Five minutes from full time, we were out."
Instead of the Dutch players, it was the Mexicans who wilted in the heat as they conceded twice as many goals in the final minutes of the match as they had in the entire group stage.
"The humidity was against us, but we were fresher and fitter than the Mexicans," Van Gaal said. "Yes, we escaped. But we showed that we could create more chances with 4-3-3, and the players handled this shift very well."
The Dutch will next face Costa Rica in the quarterfinals on Saturday in Salvador, and may have to play without midfielder Nigel de Jong, who was substituted in the ninth minute with a groin injury.
Mexico coach Miguel Herrera, one of the most popular characters at the World Cup because of his emotive ways on the sidelines, blamed Proenca for the loss and accused Robben of diving under a challenge from Rafael Marquez to earn the penalty.
"Today it was the man with the whistle who eliminated us from the World Cup," Herrera said. "If a referee invents a penalty, you're out of the World Cup.
"I hope they have a look at what happened and that this gentleman goes home just like we are."

T-Mobile US is set to buy spectrum licenses from Verizon Wireless to improve its high-speed wireless services in a deal worth $3.3 billion.
T-Mobile, majority owned by Deutsche Telekom, said the deal includes $2.365 billion in cash and a transfer of spectrum worth $950m.
It had been raising money to buy more airwaves as it beefs up its network to catch up with rival services.
Reuters reported in November that T-Mobile was seeking to buy the spectrum from Verizon Wireless, owned by Verizon Communications and Vodafone Group.
T-Mobile, the fourth largest US mobile provider, said the licenses cover more than 150 million people in areas such as New York, Atlanta and Los Angeles. It expects to roll out services using the spectrum as early as the fourth quarter of 2014.
It said that the transaction, which requires regulatory approval, is expected to close around the middle of this year.
T-Mobile had raised $1.8 billion through a sale of its common stock in November and sold about $2 billion in bonds to fund future spectrum purchases.
Analysts said the spectrum would boost T-Mobiles network capacity and coverage, but estimated that it could cost another $1 billion to add spectrum to its network.
T-Mobile also said the companies will realign spectrum blocks in markets such as northern California and Atlanta.

Many people think a full-body workout requires expensive equipment and a health club membership. In the privacy of your own home, you can get a great workout. Use your stairs to exercise all parts of your body.
Perform a warm-up and stretch session before exercising on your stairs. You will need to prepare your muscles for a stair workout. Perform any of the following movements for a few minutes to warm up your muscles.
Step-Ups: Step up onto the first step with one leg at a time. Immediately step back down, one leg at a time. This movement mimics the basic step performed on an aerobic step.
Knee-Ups: Step up with your right leg onto the first step and raise your left knee into the air. Step down with your left leg, followed by your right. Alternate between your right and left knee.
Toe Taps: Alternate tapping your right and left toes on the bottom stair.
Walk up and down the stairs to raise your heart rate and get cardiovascular exercise. Add in variations to keep the stair exercises interesting.
Stair Climbers: Start by walking up and down one stair. Next walk up and down two stairs, then up and down one stair. Continue this pattern for five or 10 stairs or the whole staircase.
Running: Use caution when running on stairs. Always keep your hand in contact with the railing to ensure safety. Quickly run to the top of the staircase and back down. Complete this cycle as many times as you can in 30 seconds. Try to beat your number during the second 30 seconds. Adjust the time frame as necessary. Try adding push-ups, sit-ups and jumping jacks at the top and bottom of the staircase for more variety.
Strengthening Stair Exercises
Be sure to exercise all major muscle groups on the stairs for a well-rounded session.
Push-ups: These work your back, chest and shoulder muscles. Put your hands on a step (first through sixth, depending on your fitness level) with your toes on the floor. Lower your body until your arms form a 90-degree angle. Push back up to the start position. To do decline push-ups put your feet on a stair and position your hands on the ground below the first stair. Perform a push-up. Put your feet on higher stairs as you gain strength.
Triceps Dips: Sit facing away from the staircase with your back directly in front of the first stair. Put your legs in front of your body and the palms of your hands on the first stair. This should raise your body from the ground. Bend your elbows until your rear almost touches the floor. Push your body back up to complete one triceps dip.
Calf Raises: Stand on the balls of your feet on the edge of the first stair while holding onto the railing with one hand. Explode up onto your toes and slowly lower back down. When you are lowering your heels allow them to drop past the stair to get more range of motion. You also can try this move one leg at a time.
Incline Lunges: Stand at the bottom of the stairs, about a foot from the first step. Step onto the second step with one leg and bend the knee to form a 90-degree angle (your knee should not be in front of your toe). Your back leg should remain straight. Push off with the leg on the stair to return to the standing position. Adjust the step you lunge onto based on your fitness level.

A smart-pixel array is a two-dimensional array of optoelectronic devices that combine optical inputs and outputs with electronic processing circuitry. A field-programmable smart-pixel array (FP-SPA) is a smart-pixel array capable of having its electronic functionality dynamically programmed in the field. Such devices could be used in a diverse range of applications, including optical switching, optical digital signal processing, and optical image processing. We describe the design, VLSI implementation, and applications of a first-generation FP-SPA implemented with the 0.8-µm complementary metal-oxide semiconductor–self-electro-optic effect device technology made available through the Lucent Technologies–Advanced Research Projects Agency Cooperative (Lucent/ARPA/COOP) program. We report spice simulations and experimental results of two sample applications: In the first application, we configure this FP-SPA as an array of free-space optical binary switches that can be used in optical multistage networks. In the second, we configure the device as an optoelectronic transceiver for a dynamically reconfigurable free-space intelligent optical backplane called the hyperplane. We also describe the testing setup and the electrical and the optical tests that demonstrate the correct functionality of the fabricated device. Such devices have the potential to reduce significantly the need for custom design and fabrication of application-specific optoelectronic devices in the same manner that field-programmable gate arrays have largely eliminated the need for custom design and fabrication of application-specific gate arrays, except in the most demanding applications.

A 27-year-old female American blogger, "BirdAbroad," has been flooded with interview requests from journalists and hundreds of other people. She attracted nearly 1 million hits over the past three days after she posted.about Apple Store false replica in China. It became an Internet sensation after her post went viral and triggered a feisty debate about piracy in the world's second largest economy.
A search on Google showed nearly 1,000 media outlets picked up the story and pictures of the fake store, with the topic one of the most talked-about subjects on Twitter and Chinese Internet sites. Complete with the white Apple logo, wooden tables and cheery staff who appeared to genuinely believe they worked for the iPhone maker, the store looks every bit like Apple Stores found all over the world. here But Apple has no stores in Kunming and only 13 authorized resellers in the city. They have iPods, iPads, and MacBook Pros on their tables and pristine white paint on their walls.
She wrote in the post that she found the store while strolling down a street with her husband a few blocks from their apartment. "I originally put the post up not because it was news that Western brands get ripped off in China, but because these Apple stores had taken the fakery up a serious notch to the point where it's practically a work of art in itself.,"
She did actually email the blog post to Steve Jobs when she first put it up, purely for fun. But, he didn't responded, After the stir provoked by her first blog, titled"Are you listening, Steve Jobs", the lady blogger now invited readers to send their photographs of fake Apple stores worldwide and has received responses from place including Costa Rica, Caracas and Vietnam.

Millions of dollars in change orders on construction projects in the Sweetwater Union High School District are raising eyebrows in the community.
Passed in 2006, Proposition O enabled the district to sell $644 million in bonds to construct new buildings and renovate others. The district sold $180 million of the $644 million bonds in 2008 and has work underway on nine of the district's 32 campuses.
More than $1 million in change orders were approved at school board meetings in January and February, including a $247,000 increase at Chula Vista Middle School, accounting for a 9.84 percent increase to the contract. Some $182,000 of the increase was due to district-initiated improvements.
Other changes in contracts typically are due to such things as unforeseen conditions once construction gets underway and mandates from outside agencies.
Residents Stewart Payne and Kathleen Cheers have been vocal critics of Proposition O spending and have voiced their concerns at school board and bond oversight committee meetings in recent months.
"Legitimate change orders should be items that they cannot see, a condition they didn't know existed," Payne said. He also expressed concern that the district may run out of money before reaching the projects on the east side of town if the trend continues.
Proposition O projects are slated for each of the district's 32 campuses.
The state prohibits change orders in excess of 10 percent. The total change order rate presently stands at about 4 percent, or $4.5 million, but four of the nine school sites under construction are within 2 percent of the 10 percent change order threshold.
Bond program manager Jaime Ortiz called the change orders "very reasonable," and "very much within industry standard for a program of this magnitude."
But some have asked why work like the $33,000 change order for a painted and sealed parking lot at Chula Vista High was not planned and accounted for in the initial bid.
Superintendent Jesus Gandara said at a Feb. 15 board meeting that the district's practice was sound.
"Four percent in the market is very, very low," Gandara said. "The bids, when they were originally estimated, were a lot higher. They came in extremely low. That has allowed us to do stuff like, 'Let's finish this parking lot since we are there already. Let's add additional scope of work,' which kicks (the percentage) up."
Trustee Bertha Lopez asked at the meeting if an audit of change orders existed. Karl Bradley, assistant superintendent of facilities and operations, noted the Proposition O spending is audited annually. He added that detailed audits of change orders also occur in-house with consultants and district staff.
This year's Proposition O audit is slated to go before trustees in March.
A change in the general contractor at Montgomery High School has also drawn criticism. The district released Irvine-based SMC Construction in Spring 2010 in an "amicable split," Ortiz said. Timelines were not being met and some work had to be redone, Ortiz said.
The contractor has since been replaced with Swinerton Builders. Swinerton, among other contractors, donated $5,000 to trustees Arlie Ricasa and Jim Cartmill for their re-election campaign in the fall, an issue resident Nicolle DePriest said merited a recusal by the board members when approving bids. No recusals have been offered.

At Spring High School outside Houston, Texas, administrators have been busy addressing an incident involving one of their own. Assistant Principal Mark West was arrested Monday, accused of having sex with a student in his office while prom was taking place on campus last May.
West, 30, resigned Friday after being placed on administrative leave last month.
According to the criminal complaint obtained by the Houston Chronicle, administrators began investigating West last year after reports that he had inappropriate relationships with students. The Chronicle said female students had been seen "laughing and smiling, with their disheveled hair and clothing as they left 'closed-door meetings' in his office."
The incident at prom was brought to the attention of investigators when they interviewed the former student who was said to have been involved.
West has been charged with having an improper relationship with a student and has posted $30,000 bail.
The principal of Spring High School, Donna Ullrich, sent a letter home to parents saying students' safety is of the highest importance. The school is on break this week.
"The administration at Spring High School takes every allegation seriously and will conduct a thorough investigation and expose inappropriate behavior when necessary," read the letter.
Mark West could not be reached for comment.

ALTHOUGH it may not look like much from the outside, step inside Glassford Street's Steps Bar and you will be transported back to a more elegant age.
The pub, refitted in 1938, is one of the few remaining original Art Deco bars in the city; the interior a symphony of black Vitrolite, polished wood panelling, sleek chrome metalwork and stunning stained glass.
Named for the two steps which lead up to the door (a stumbling block which has caught out countless generations of Glaswegian topers), once inside everything is plain sailing, particularly when you spot the stained glass image of the Cunard liner the RMS Queen Mary, built at Clydebank and launched in 1936, hidden away in the back snug.
Rumour has it that it was the same skilled tradesmen who fitted out the liner who did out the pub in their spare time, using materials 'borrowed' from the yard.

How fun was this Challenge?
How clear and simple were the titles and descriptions?
Were the learning goals easy to understand?
Paul, I've taken a look at both Challenges and I find them engaging and easy to understand. You give learners many wasy to engage the material and accomodate many types of learning styles.
One question: will people outside of Youth Voices be able to take this Challenge? I'm still unclear as to how people outside the Youth Voices community can participate. In the first task of the Challenge "Youth Voices Profile" (http://cl.ly/0H2k0r1M3j3k2p222i12) the Youth Voices platform isn't linked to so we can't make our own profiles.
Thanks Paul! Vanessa

How much longer did it go on? How many others co-sleeping with a 6-7 year old?
Our ped is AWESOME and was reassuring recently (I wouldn't talk to most medical folks about co-sleeping with an older child, but she completely understands) when I brought it up at a well visit. I think what is throwing us off is that our older child was begging to sleep in her own room before she was 3 yo and pretty much has been fine ever since, with some brief exceptions when she had problems with environmental allergies.
So we have the twin next to the queen... my 7 yo used to have night terrors which terrified me and had me worried about her safety (she'd walk right off the side of a bed, we had tall stairs, etc). I noticed over time that she stays asleep if there is someone with her. When she was younger I'd nurse her to sleep or whatever we did, and sneak out... I'd get an hour or two before she stirred (sometimes dh could just lay her back down and she'd be immediately asleep, or I could, or other times I would just go to bed, etc.) The quality of her sleep has really improved, meaning I don't expect her to always wake up if I'm not there, but she really can't fall asleep alone, so I lay with her. Which is fine. She still stays asleep better if someone is with her. If she is sick I have no hope of sneaking away!
Her ped thinks that maybe the transition will be easier closer to age 8... I have to admit that if she was the kind of kid who if she had a hard night could come sleep on a sleeping bag next to my bed, that would be fine... but she is still pretty intense at night. She sleeps in the crack between our beds, and is basically touching me or throwing her body on me in some way throughout the night. Depending on the time of month, I can deal with it or not. I try to roll her or scootch her to the middle of her bed as much as I can do so.
We have tried about 8-10 times various approaches to encourage more sleep independence, but they have all upset her greatly. Her ped suggested that we not push for now, because by pushing her we may cause her to cling more tightly. (So perhaps that has happened in the past...)
Dh is kinda over this. He'd like her in a different sleeping space. If she was ready and excited and positive about it, I'm fine with it and I'm sure I'd quickly get used to it, but I don't feel the same urgency about it as he does. I would still sort of like to know, in that small population of 7 year olds who need to cosleep still, how long past 7 that transition seemed to happen naturally, how long it took, did you really have to instigate it, or did you follow your child's lead. I sort of feel like well we have done it for this long, might as well let her decide when she wants to move on. I just can't imagine her being 9 yo like my other daughter is currently and still wanting to sleep with us! But then, I thought she'd be done by this age, really, so I should stop comparing...
Thanks! :)

I personally don't think there is an age which is too old to provide night comfort to your child. But you need to decide what is best for the family. I have come to recognize that it's important for our children to feel relaxed and no anxiety going to bed by themselves. They are now at ages where they may sleep over with Grandparents, have sitters who are there at bedtime etc and I really want them to feel like their own bed is a haven and a place to sleep. I think there are lots of things you can do to help her transition back to that. Starting with talking to her about how she feels and how important it is for her to be capable of falling asleep in her own bed. That doesn't mean it will happen over night but you can agree to work towards it.
OP: I feel like you wrote the post I'll be writing in a few years. Our 4yo has a lot of similar sleep needs.
Up until a month ago or so she was in bed with us and her little brother, all in a king. But it got too crowded and no one was sleeping well.
For a spell, she'd been okay in a twin at the end of our bed, but that was short lived. However, we decided to try it again, rather than split us up into two rooms. I'd been in another bed with our 19mo, while DP was in the king with the 4yo. I didn't like that. I wanted us all together again, so we suggested the twin at the end of our bed again, and she was into the idea, if only to keep up all in the same room.
All of this to say that our ped knows about our sleeping arrangements too, and he said that if she's still in our bed/room now, it's going to be for a long time and not to push it any time soon.
Right now, we're happy with her at the end of the bed, except that DP ends up in there with her a fair bit after comforting her in the night.
I imagine that our 4yo will sleep in our room indefinitely, and I predict that her brother won't be. He's a different child, and I imagine he'll look forward to his own space, unlike his sister.

. Enchanting audiostories for curious kids. Come play in the forest!
We still cosleep with our 5yo, since it would feel pretty rude to boot him out while DD is still in bed with us. We use 2 queen mattresses up against each other. Eventually, we hope to move toward a sibling bed and a parent bed. it's anyone's guess how long that might be, though.
If they go to a different room all alone after sleeping with others their whole life, it will likely be a hard transition at any age. I think going from family bedroom to sibling bedroom helps ease that. Surely by tween age, kids will not want so much closeness at night. Right?
7, 5 and 15months.... they can share the family bed for as long as they want....
I also want to know. We cosleep with all our kids, oldest DD is 7. I cannot get her to her own room now, she would be by herself, while the other two are still with us. I can try to get the two oldest out (DS (5) and DD( 7)) together maybe. Who has experience with this?
We are still with our girls, 6.5 and 8. They would do fine, with a transition period, but we have 1 bedroom for right now, and mostly I like it. What I don't like really has little to do with sharing the bed. I know and know of plenty of kids who slept with parents or in their rooms until 11 or later--usually not much later, but that depends on the situation.
So, your daughter could be there a while, if you are waiting for her needs to lessen. In my house, the decision lies with the parent who will be doing the nighttime parenting--and that's me. If your responsibilities are shared, then the decision can be less unilateral.
We also have a huge-bed set up. It is not a perfect situation, but all-in-all I love curling up with my girls. I don't love when their knees get into my back, but......
"She is a mermaid, but approach her with caution. Her mind swims at a depth most would drown in."
I think that my biggest issue, personally, is that she still wants to touch me all night long. Sometimes I can "handle it" but other times it just drives me really nutty.
I think if we had a 3rd child who was a couple of years younger (like 3-5 yo) that those two little ones would happily be sleeping together. But life circumstances weren't right for us to do that. Maybe a dog would help lol.
I guess I will be doing this for a while!

Glad I found this thread. My 7 yr old still sleeps w me. DH comes home very late and it has just been more convenient that way.
I am a very light sleeper. Now DH is resentful. We went to a therapist and she said that DS not sleeping by himself is detrimental to his development and that no therapist would disagree. I disagree and wish I could find info on it. My son is very secure and a wonderful kid. I just love c osleeping and am sure DS will want to move to his own room soon enough. Unfortunately, DH is angry about it.
My 6 year old doesn't show any signs of stopping. When I was pregnant last year we changed the house from my room and his room to sleeping room and playing room. DP (doesn't live with us) is getting used to the idea.
people have co slept since the beginning of time...that should make the therapist question herself
Its been such a hard battle w DH and now the therapist confirmed and agreed all his thoughts. I guess the good news is that DS is getting older and will soon want his own bed. Lately, I feel like the world is out to get me.
I wonder if you could get a 2nd opinion from a therapist with a knowledge of attachment parenting.
Yes, DH did say we could get another therapist if I did not like her. I already have found another but am wondering if I should see her myself before bringing DH. I guess I could call her and ask her if she has knowledge of attachment parenting. Its just so darn expensive!
Mine is 5-1/2 and still co-sleeping.
It's somewhat circumstantial: I lived in a 3-bedroom house with 2 kids. Then - all in one year - I got married, my husband got custody of his son from before and we had a baby. Squoosh! My kids (the oldest 2) shared a room and when the youngest was ~3, we put a bed for him in my step-son's room. However, the baby's schedule did not jive in any way with that of his brother (then in 6th grade). We're building an addition for the older 3 kids, with bedrooms and another bathroom. I keep hearing that it's a couple weeks from being complete, but it's been a l-o-n-g time in the building. So, the littlest one is still in our bed.
But it's not entirely forced upon us. Our son did not want to sleep alone. My husband (who thought this was so important) missed cuddling with him at night. And I see the changes in him, now. I'd be surprised if we have more than a few months left, when he even wants to sleep with us. When his brothers move upstairs, I think he's going to be pretty excited about having his own space, and our dog sleeping with him. (She currently sleeps with an older brother, but is afraid to climb the stairs.) So, social convention be damned. Why not enjoy our last few snuggly nights?
I think the only way you can mess up co-sleeping is if you're not honest with yourself. Is your daughter still needing to sleep with you? Then no one else can really set an arbitrary time when that becomes "inappropriate". She'll stop wanting to, sometime before puberty. I guarantee it. Or, if you're just tired of it, no one can blame you for transitioning her out, at 7. If you were encouraging a kid who's ready to sleep on her own to stay in your bed, because you're lonely, stressed, or having marital problems, then I'd say you're not the first, but once you recognize it, you should change your approach.
Legally? This was actually an issue, in my husband's custody battle. His ex-wife moved with their 7-y-o son, from a 3-bedroom house in the Midwest, to a studio apartment with one bed, in a tony neighborhood in California. Their sleeping together was pretty clearly an example of Mom being lonely (and not recognizing that her son's need for some personal space should trump her "need" to live in an enviable zip code). Mom and son were close, but he felt embarrassed enough to lie about their sleeping arrangements and not have friends over. The highly-regarded custody evaluator who interviewed all of them and testified at their trial said co-sleeping should positively end by age 9; and that Mom's failure to even give her 7-y-o the option of a bedroom separate from her was not, of itself, a reason to change custody, but it supported his recommendation that (for various other reasons) living with Dad seemed better.

My son coslept until he was 11.5 and i adopted a baby. He mightve gone on longer, i dont know. He only coslept when we stayed at my mom's house (we slept there half of each week as i was her caregiver and i had a queensize bed there)...at our apt i only had a twin so he couldnt really share my bed. I have a five (nearly six) yr old now (well, two of them) and i dont think he's going to be willing to sleep on his own anytime soon.
Not sure if there is a thing as part time co-sleeping? My 7 and 4 year old start off in their beds (they share a room) and comes over in ours sometime in the wee morning. My 2 1/2 cosleeps with me full time. They didn't chose to be on their own. We just got a room ready for them and would take them in there, read them a story and stay there until they fall asleep. I guess in a few years they may want complete bed independance not sure.
I do have a cousin that even in her teens she would still try and go in her parents bed now and then usually when she watches a scary movie, it was nice to see that even at that age they can still feel comfortable to be comforted my a parent..

Loving our chaotic, crunchy, homeschooling life!
One of the adults (either me or my dh) sleeps upstairs in the kids' shared bedroom. They are 7 and 9. Everyone has separate beds, and sleeps separately unless there is a nightmare which is rare. It's the size of an entire floor so each person has their own area.
My 9 year old would have been fine, I think, sleeping alone in a room when she was 7. She hasn't asked for her own room.
My 7 year old has a really hard time with the idea of sleeping by herself.
I stay upstairs as they fall asleep, then go down to my husband and my bedroom to hang out, then one of us return to sleep w/the kids -- usually me.
I don't particularly tell people -- I would never bring it up with a doctor -- I don't see it as a medical issue.
I like it -- I think if the kids want that kind of closeness, I will provide it. I enjoy it too. Sometimes I wish I had my own space, but really, the tradeoff is great. I don't see them much in the day because of school, it's a nice time to reconnect.
So much of these things are determined by the layout of the house. We don't have a lot of bedrooms. Also, my dh snores so we can't sleep together.
Well... my 7.5 year old is STILL sleeping with us! Ha. And I'm due in April. She tells me that when the baby comes, she will scoot her bed a few feet away. She will be 8 yo then. We will see! But something will need to change, for logistical reasons. I have heard that many kids do respond to the needs of a new sibling once they come along.

My DD5 will be 6 in March and is still co-sleeping. I co-sleep with my DD2 as well. My thoughts have been that this stage will pass. One day they will not have interest in co-sleeping and ask to be in their own bed/in their own room. I would like other opinions, however.
Every kid is different. I only have one child left who is "co-sleeping" and he is 13. The other 3 are younger and occasionally pop in to "the big bed" to sleep but he consistently sleeps in my room and has his own bed on the floor. Very rarely does he actually join us in the bed though.
He doesn't like that he still sleeps here. He would rather be "normal" and sleep in his own room alone but it is scary for him. We made a big deal for a while working toward a plan to get him comfortable in his own room. But it ended up just being added stress for everyone and we stopped bothering. He'll get it when he gets it, I guess!
It does make adult relations harder. A 3 year old on the floor is one thing, a 13 year old feels very different! Nighttime sex is mostly a thing of the past around here, because he needs someone with him while he is sleeping.
Me. With 1 spouse, 4 kids, 16 chickens, 74 matchbox cars, 968,562+ legos, a dishwasher waiting to be emptied, a washing machine waiting to be filled and a lost cup of tea in the house.
My little girl just turned 6 in September and is still co-sleeping...she is just now able to go into the bedroom and go to sleep by herself without needing me there...I have a Queen bed and we share that but I do have a toddler bed in storage if I need it...LOL Unless something happened to it over there and it isn't any good which is probably the case...LOL..I am hoping to get a 2 bedroom this spring or summer if my name comes up for one...they are rare where we live and the rent is the same...I think when we do L will be excited to be in her own room at first but I have no doubt that by midnight she will be right back in my bed...
I am okay with it right now..When she is ready for her own bed she will get it even if we are still in this apartment..I will get her own bed...
My son coslept till age 5 then he went to his own and never looked back....LOL
We went from:
- complete co-sleeping at 7, to
- me lying down with my son until he fell asleep in his own bed (then slipping out to spend time with dh and then go to sleep in my own bed), to
- lying down with him for ten minutes then leaving while he was half-asleep, to
- tucking him into bed and sitting in a chair in the room to read for ten minutes before leaving.
Now he's 9 and sleeping by himself in a loft bed in his room. Sometimes I stay and read for a bit after I tuck him in and sometimes I just kiss and go. He's welcome to come cuddle with me in my bed if he wants but he rarely does. I love that bedtime has always been a good and happy time for him (and I love that bit of structured reading time just for me!)
Nice to see I'm not alone, my 7.5 yr old is still co-sleeping and refuses to even consider moving to her own bed. Its really starting to effect my sleep though, she HATES covers and kicks them off all night long which wakes me up because I'm cold. We've been sharing a twin bed out of necessity since moving across the county several months ago so when she kicks off the covers it uncovers me too. I'm planning on buying another bed next month with my tax return and I'd like to just get a twin and have my own bed so I can sleep undisturbed, cost is also a factor as is size. I hated how my queen we had to leave behind took up so much room space but dd7 is adamant about co-sleeping, she won't even go to bed without me which lately is starting to cause problems. I'm busy during the day and need the nights after she's in bed to finish work, I can't keep dropping everything at 8:30 because its her bedtime and therefore my bedtime according to her but if I'm not there she wakes up so its not like I can easily sneak out. My older child moved into her own bed under protest at age 6 when 7yo came along but she was still in the room with me (we lived in a 1 bedroom apt at the time). Anyway, if dd would stop kicking off the covers I would be happy to keep co-sleeping but she wont so I want my own bed!

Somerset-Prescott showdown headlines busy night of high school basketball
The Prescott High School boys' basketball team is two games away from winning its first-ever Middle Border Conference title
The Cardinals, who are unbeaten in the MBC at 10-0, face the other top teams in the league: Somerset this Tuesday and Ellsworth next Tuesday. Wins over both will secure the championship.
PHS beat the Spartans back in December by a 57-45 score led by Clay Seifert's 23 points. The Spartans are 7-1 in the conference and 11-2 overall. SHS is led in scoring by Gaelin Elmore's 19.5 points per game and while Jack Emmert is scoring 15 points.
Prescott also edged Ellsworth 37-35 in their first meeting.
The Prescott-Somerset game highlights a busy night of high school basketball involving Pierce County teams. In boys' basketball, Ellsworth hosts Durand, Plum City is at Mondovi, Boyceville is at Elmwood and No. 5 ranked Elk Mound is at Spring Valley.
There are two girls game this evening as well, both of them rescheduled games. Ellsworth is at Prescott and Elk Mound is at Spring Valley. Spring Valley is looking for its fourth straight win and Prescott its third. After struggling on offense for much of the season, the Cardinals are starting to generate points, as they demonstrated by beating up Elmwood 54-17 last night.
"We're more efficient on offense and we're shooting the ball a lot better which has helped our confidence," PHS head coach Luek Kjelland said. "I don't at this point we have a go-to scorer, although Katy Syverson has had games where she 's had high double figures in points. I think it will be scoring by committe but that's a strength in itself because we're so balance we can get contribution from several different players."
Ellsworth is still looking for its first MBC win and will need its go-to scorer, Kelsey Betthauser, along with someone else in double figures to crack Prescott's tough defense. EHS's lone win of the season, against Pine City, Minn., came largely due to the outside scoring of Hayley Stoesz who had 12 points and the Panthers will need here and or Tacia Kuhl to make some outside shots.
