Report of the Committee of Three
The Committee on Non-Military Cooperation, more frequently referred to as the "Committee of Three" or the "Three Wise Men", was convened in 1956 and instructed to "advise the Council on ways and means to improve and extend NATO cooperation in non-military fields and to develop greater unity within the Atlantic Community". It produced a report entitled "The Report of the Committee of Three on Non-Military Cooperation in NATO", which was considered as a "major step forward in the development of NATO in the non-military field" and, more broadly, in the development of political consultation between members of the Alliance.
It was published in December 1956 at a sensitive time in Alliance history: NATO's unity and solidarity were jeopardized through a lack of consultation over the Suez affair. Effectively, the Suez crisis demonstrated that the continuous character of political consultation was not assured within the Alliance.
The "Three Wise Men" were Lester B. Pearson, Foreign Minister of Canada, Gaetano Martino, Foreign Minister of Italy, and Halvard Lange, Foreign Minister of Norway. They identified key areas where cooperation in dispute resolution was needed and suggested ways such cooperation could foment within the Atlantic Community. More generally, they examined and redefined the objectives and needs of the Alliance and made recommendations for strengthening its internal solidarity, cohesion and unity.
Their work had a resounding impact on the Organization. It put forward several recommendations, including the peaceful settlement of inter-member disputes, economic cooperation, scientific and technical cooperation, cultural cooperation and cooperation in the information field. It also introduced a more cooperative approach to security issues and broadened the strategic framework within which the Alliance operated. It reinforced NATO's political role at a time when the Organization was hardening its military and strategic stance, advocating massive retaliation as a key element of its new strategy.
The adoption of political consulation as a key component of the Alliance permanently characterized NATO as a political and military organization.
Aim and political context
Cooperation and cohesion
The aim of the report was two-fold: to broaden areas of cooperation beyond the military to include non-military cooperation and encourage regular political consultation among member countries so as to reinforce unity and cohesion.
On 5 May 1956, the North Atlantic Council appointed Lester B. Pearson, Gaetano Martino and Halvard Lange to write a report by the end of the year that would offer ways and means of reaching these objectives.
Encouraging regular political consultation and non-military cooperation
Although Articles 2 and 4 of NATO's founding Washington Treaty held the promise of more than a military Alliance, by 1956 members were not regularly using the Alliance's framework to consult each other or to co-operate on non-military matters. In April 1954, a resolution on political consultation had nonetheless been put forward by Canada:
"…all member governments should bear constantly in mind the desirability of bringing to the attention of the Council information on international political developments whenever they are of concern to other members of the Council or to the Organization as a whole; and
(…) the Council in permanent session should from time to time consider what specific subject might be suitable for political consultation at one of its subsequent meetings when its members should be in a position to express the views of their governments on the subject". Council Memorandum, C-M(54)38
However, even if this resolution was approved by Council, not all member countries were comfortable with the idea of consulting more systematically on international affairs.
Reservations and resistance
John Foster Dulles of the United States, although supportive of the resolution, expressed reservations in a Council meeting on 23 April 1954:
"Countries like his own with world-wide interests might find it difficult to consult other NATO governments in every case. For a sudden emergency, it was more important to take action than to discuss the emergency." Council Record, C-R(54)18
Improving conditions for consultation within the Alliance meant that smaller Allies felt their voices could be heard, but that larger powers, such as the United States, were concerned that they would not have the freedom to act as they saw fit if they were forced to consult on foreign policy.
Additionally, the United States argued that developing a political pillar within the Alliance could divert attention from the "straight defence arrangements" they wanted to put into place. This was an argument they had already put forward during the drafting of Article 2 of the Washington Treaty in 1949.
A political and a military alliance
Nonetheless, the Report of the Three Wise Men was to become a landmark in the evolution of NATO's political consultation process as well as being instrumental in reinforcing NATO's political pillar:
"A direct method of bringing home to public opinion the importance of the habit of political consultation within NATO may be summed up in the proposition "NATO is a political as well as a military alliance". The habitual use of this phraseology would be preferable to the current tendency to refer to NATO as a (purely) military alliance. It is also more accurate." Council Memorandum, C-M(56)25
The Committee agreed that the two aspects of security – civil and military – were no longer separate, and that the needs and objectives of NATO had changed. It therefore set about consulting with members on how the Alliance could improve non-military co-operation.
The Suez crisis – a case at hand
Ironically, just six weeks after the Committee began consulting, France and the United Kingdom collaborated with Israel in the invasion of Egypt to secure the Suez Canal on 29 October 1956. This was the most serious dispute faced by the Allies since the establishment of NATO and it took place while "The Three Wise Men" were working on the report.
France and the United Kingdom argued that Gamal Abdul Nasser's nationalisation of the canal on 26 July 1956 was a threat to European industry and oil supplies. The French also accused Nasser of supporting the rebellion in Algeria and of threatening regional security. However, the United States maintained it would not support military action.
When Israel launched the attack, supported by the British and French, no advanced warning was given to the United States or NATO. Although there had been tripartite discussions between the United Kingdom, United States and France regarding the crisis, they were not explicit.
The danger of the Suez crisis was not a war between these powers but that the member countries would fail to act as a community. This could have endangered the Alliance. The North Atlantic Council first convened on the subject after the first London Conference in August 1956, which had brought together the signatories of the 1888 Constantinople Convention and states that shipped considerable cargo through the canal. The discussions at NATO were not been very fruitful. It was observed that neither France not the United Kingdom were interested in keeping the Allies informed of their actions.
Eventually, debate in the United Nations Security Council turned from condemnation of the action to the idea of a United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF). This force, the brainchild of Lester Pearson, moved into the Canal-zone in mid-November and by Christmas French and British troops were extracted from the region. The UNEF was the archetype for future peacekeeping missions run by the United Nations and Lester Pearson later received the Nobel Peace Prize for his role in defusing the crisis and according to the Nobel selection committee, "sav[ing] the world."
Although the crisis was rapidly resolved, it shook the Alliance and clearly demonstrated the need for greater consultation and cooperation.
The Committee looked at five areas:
- political co-operation;
- economic co-operation;
- cultural co-operation;
- co-operation in the information field; and
- organization and functions.
At its first meetings on 20-22 June 1956 at NATO Headquarters, located at the time in Paris, the Committee established the procedures that would be followed. Each member country received a questionnaire from the Committee on 28 June, which touched on each topic area. In addition, a memorandum containing explanatory notes and guidance to assist members with the questionnaires was issued. Member countries had to send their replies by 10 August, after which there was a period of two weeks for the Committee to consider the responses.
Following this examination the Committee held consultations with each member country individually in order to clarify, where necessary, positions taken by governments in their replies and to discuss preliminary views of the Committee.
NATO's International Staff were tasked with producing a study on how other international organizations dealt with disputes between members and what NATO had done so far in the field of non-military cooperation. This included ways of improving the coordination of the foreign policies of member countries. A 15-page report was drafted with the help of Professor Lincoln Gordon (Harvard University), Professor Guido Carli (Rome) and Mr Robert Major (Oslo). It identified areas where increased co-operation could be implemented and how political consultation on matters of common concern could aid dispute resolution within the Alliance framework thereby promoting solidarity among members.
The "Committee of Three" met again in New York on 14 November 1956 and re-examined the report in the light of the tensions surrounding the Suez crisis. It re-wrote the report in the last three weeks of November in response to the Suez crisis. Although many of the points remained the same, the language used was made stronger to reflect the deterioration in allied relations that had taken place. The final draft of the report was delivered to Council on 13 December 1956.
Main conclusions
Speaking at a Council meeting in Paris on 11 December 1956, Paul-Henri Spaak, Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs, said that the events of the Suez crisis had "shattered many illusions" within the NATO framework. "The action taken by the United Kingdom and France risked setting up chain reactions which would have had the most serious consequences," he said. "It was no excuse to say that these events were taking place south of a given parallel. To preserve the substance of the Alliance and its very existence, the concept of a geographical limit had to be discarded. The conclusions reached by the 'Committee of Three Ministers' were an imperative necessity, without acceptance of which there was no salvation for NATO." Council Record, C-R(56)70, Item II.
The Committee found that unless greater cohesion was achieved "the very framework of cooperation in NATO, which has contributed so greatly to the cause of freedom, and which is so vital to its advancement in the future, will be endangered."
It acknowledged that the "first essential, then, of a healthy and developing NATO lies in the whole-hearted acceptance by all its members of the political commitment for collective defence", stating further on that: "There cannot be unity in defence and disunity in foreign policy."
The core of the report focused on defining security in a broad sense, going well beyond military matters alone. "From the very beginning of NATO, then, it was recognised that while defence cooperation was the first and most urgent requirement, this was not enough. It has also become increasingly realised since the Treaty was signed that security is today far more than a military matter. The strengthening of political consultation and economic cooperation, the development of resources, progress in education and public understanding, all these can be as important, or even more important, for the protection of the security of a nation, or an alliance, as the building of a battle-ship or the equipping of an army."
Within the five areas examined – political, economic, cultural, cooperation in the field of information and organization and functions – the principal recommendations were the following:
Political cooperation
- Members should inform the North Atlantic Council of any development significantly affecting the Alliance; they should do this not as a formality, but as a preliminary to effective political consultation;
- Both individual member governments and the Secretary General should have the right to raise in the North Atlantic Council any subject which is of common NATO interest and not of a purely domestic character;
- A member government should not, without adequate advance consultation, adopt firm policies or make major political pronouncements on matters which significantly affect the Alliance or any of its members, unless circumstances make such prior consultation obviously and demonstrably impossible;
- In developing their national policies, members should take into consideration the interests and views of other governments, particularly those most directly concerned, as expressed in NATO consultation, even where no community of view or consensus has been reached in the North Atlantic Council;
- Where a consensus has been reached, it should be reflected in the formation of national policies. When, for national reasons, the consensus is not followed, the government concerned should offer an explanation to the Council. It is even more important that, when an agreed and formal recommendation has emerged from the North Atlantic Council's discussions, governments should give it full weight in any national action or policies related to the subject of that recommendation.
The "Three Wise Men" also recommended that the Council adopt a resolution on the peaceful settlement of inter-member disputes and made some specific recommendations to strengthen the consultation procedure. These included initiatives such as submitting disputes between member countries to NATO before resorting to another international agency, except disputes of a legal or an economic character.
Economic cooperation
The report highlighted the importance of close economic relations between members, as well a good understanding of each other's interests and concerns:
"… there must be a genuine desire among the members to work together and a readiness to consult on questions of common concern based on the recognition of common interests".
However, even if the report did not recommend that NATO take on a lead role in this area, it suggested that there should be "… NATO consultation whenever economic issues of special interest to the Alliance are involved; particularly those which have political or defence implications or affect the economic health of the Atlantic Community as a whole." The report recommended that a Committee of Economic Advisers be established and also encouraged cooperation in the field of science and technology.
Cultural cooperation
The Three Wise Men underlined the importance of cultural cooperation between member countries.
"A sense of community must bind the people as well as the institutions of the Atlantic nations. This will exist only to the extent that there is a realization of their common cultural heritage and of the values of their free way of life and thought."
To put this in practice, they proposed straight-forward initiatives such as preparing NATO courses and seminars for teachers; broadening support to other educational initiatives such as NATO fellowships; the use of NATO information materials in schools; and promoting closer relations between NATO and youth organizations; and financing cultural projects, with a common benefit.
Cooperation in the information field
The NATO Information Service was established in 1950, but to bolster its efforts, the "Three Wise Men" recommended that national information officers be designated to disseminate information material. Other initiatives were suggested, such as having this material translated into as many non-official NATO languages of the Alliance as possible and broadening NATO's target audiences to include youth leaders, teachers and lecturers.
Organization and functions
The proposals under this section were formulated with the full implementation of the report recommendations in mind. They included suggestions for improvement such as encouraging discussion rather than just declarations of policy at ministerial meetings, strengthening links between the Council and member countries and reinforcing the role of the Secretary General and the International Staff.
Impact of the Report
The Council approved the report on 13 December 1956 and in May 1957 inaugurated procedures based on the Committee's recommendations.
Immediate results were mixed. As a direct result the NATO Science Programme was launched that year. It sought to promote collaborative projects and to facilitate exchange and maximise return for resources spent on research. Another immediate impact was the creation of national information officers and targeted national information programmes, and the establishment of the Committee of Political Advisers (later to become the Political Committee) and the Committee of Economic Advisers in 1957.
Paul-Henri Spaak, a proponent of non-military cooperation, became Secretary General of NATO the same year. However, even though a strong advocate of consultation was now at the head of the Organization, controversial issues continued to be largely ignored by members before the Council.
Political consultation itself was a gradual process which took many years to come to fruition. In a NATO monograph on the issue in 1963 the International Staff noted:
"the creation of the NATO consultation system is, in itself, an achievement of the highest order. In fact, seen against the background of the centuries-old history of frustrated efforts in organizing and using political cooperation as an instrument to prevent armed aggression, NATO's success in a) achieving continuity of consultation, and in b) creating the necessary permanent consultative organs is all the more impressive." NATO Historical Officer, NHO(63)1
While there have been occasions where timing, security and geographical responsibilities have made using the consultative NATO framework problematic for members, the number of these cases remain few said the monograph. "The criteria of the 'Three Wise Men' may have been in the nature of ideal objectives. If they have not been realised, this may have been due in certain cases to a lack of imagination among governments, unable at times to recognise 'the common interest' of certain problems."
In addition and similarly to the Harmel Report published in 1967, the Report of the Three Wise Men contributed to broadening the strategic framework within which the Alliance operated. Both reports could be perceived as NATO's first steps toward a more cooperative approach to security issues.
The Alliance continues to build upon the principles set out in the Committee's report to this day.

I was here almost 4 years ago when I was pregnant with my now 3 year old daughter. I was on BC pills after I had her switched 3 different times. Finally I had enough with them and stopped taking them. I finished the pack and had period on Dec 15-19. Had next period on January 18th. I have not had one since. I have taken a test last 3 weeks. All have been negative. Took one the other morning and looked at it after 2 minutes then put it away. Forgot to look at it again before the 10 minutes was up. So I went to throw it away and it showed a positive line. All my other negative ones stayed negative. So I took one this afternoon and it was negative. I took it after I hadn't pee'd for 3 hours since I was in town. Not sure what to think. Plus I had a whole bunch of discharge like I had before I had my daughter. Not sure what to think. This is the first time I have ever taken BC pills and the first time I had stopped taking them.
Advice please.

Its only a few hours away.
Major League Baseball is getting ready to secure the all-time home run record for years to come. MLB will soon sentence Alex Rodriguez to some sort of ban, possibly a lifetime ban, for being involved with the Biogenesis probe.
Alex Rodriguez is now #5 all time when it comes to hitting home runs (647). Rodriguez has been considered the top candidate to chase the record by Barry Bonds (762). If and when A-Rod is suspended, there isn't anyone close or on pace to be considered in the home run record.
Manny Ramirez is the #2 active player in home runs with 555. Here are some others:
#3 Albert Pujois (492)
#4 Jason Giambi (436)
#5 Adam Dunn (431)
#6 Paul Konerko (429)
See...no one is close. Top 12 active players have at least 13 years in the league and they would have to average some pretty big numbers to get close.
My prediction on the one player who could get close to the all time record?
Miguel Cabrera, Detroit Tigers. Eleven years in the league with 353 HR. He's tied for 85th on the list, and would need to average 32 HR every year for the next 12 years. He's done that for the last 8 years. One strained oblique muscle could change that real quick.
Many thought Alex Rodriquez was going to challenge the home run record. It appears he'll spend more time now challenging his suspension in Major League Baseball

Lightly spicy and sweet, both strong and delicate ...
Origin: 100 % Grande Champagne, Premier Cru de Cognac.
Colour: Reddish brown, tints of mahogany.
Aromas: The flowery notes gently give way to aromas of vanilla, dried fruits (nuts, peanuts) mixed with spices and pepper. You will notice the deep woody flavour that characterises old maturation in oak barrels. All these aromas together have the characteristic old Cognac perfume of what we call the «Charentais Rancio».
Taste: Strength and delicacy give this Cognac its fine character. Its length on the palate is exceptional. From the nobility of its origins it has kept the strength of the Grande Champagne and from its age it has passed on the gentleness of its aromas.
How to enjoy it: you can enjoy its richness dry. Don't hurry when tasting it : After 10 minutes resting in your glass, it will yield up new and sophisticated aromas in your mouth. Treat it with all the patience it deserves : It has spent many years waiting for you in its oak barrel … It can as well go with a blue cheese, or a chocolate or vanilla dessert ...
The best Cognac Voyer to taste with a cigar ...

Yeah I don't think that is fair either Chrissy. The adults should make absolutely sure they're staying together for a good while before they even meet the kids, at least that's what I've always read, and I agree.
Joshua prefers to be called Joshua, too. He doesn't mind if I call him Josh but if anyone asks him his name he'll say Joshua and correct them if they immediately shorten it to Josh.

I've been taking these for nearly one year now and I can't complain.I feel great when I'm taking them and if I take a 'break' for any length of time, I can tell I'm missing something and that I'm not exactly firing on all cylinders. I've followed some simple steps to make sure my regimen is as effective as possible, and one of them is taking advantage of the VIP autoship from LEF and the fact that ANYHING you buy is returnable – even opened bottles. I saw a review and the only reason somebody didn't want them was because the pill was too big for them. That's an understandable concern, but had the person purchased from LEF, a refund would have been guaranteed.If you buy from outside vendors, you'll get a great product but what if that product isn't so great for your physiological make-up and you need to return it? What if you just don't like the way it smells? With outside vendors, you'll be hard pressed to find a seller that'll accept an open bottle for refund. Not so with LEF. Open the supplement, try it out and if it's not working out for you for any reason, request a refund. I've had to use this feature of my membership once and it was so easy to do I was shocked.I recommend many LEF products to friends and family and they always benefit from taking my advice. That's especially true for this product.The only improvement would be to include tocotreinols to it and then it'd be the most complete version of this product it can be and worthy of 5 stars. I currently take Super-Absorbable Tocotrienols in addition to Super Booster.

A video on YouTube has electric car fans all over the world excited about a new company called Detroit Electric."We intend to build cars in North America for [the] North American market, build cars in Europe for the European market and build them in Asia for the Asian market," said Don Graunstadt.He is Detroit Electric's CEO of North American Operations. Since their big unveiling at the Fisher Building in April, he says the company has been doing big things, including the announcement of a partnership with the Chinese company Geely. "If you want to be successful in the electrical vehicle industry, you have to have a partner in China," Graunstadt said. "China is going to be the biggest market for electric vehicles. They don't have a legacy gasoline industry... like we do here. So they're going to go into the future with electric."The original Detroit Electric sold cars from the turn of the century to almost 1939. As the brand returns, there is a lot of competition in the sector, most notable the now-profitable California-based auto company Tesla, which also started off with a roadster based on the Lotus body."Our business model is a little bit different. We haven't gone out and bought a $400 million plant to manufacture cars," Graunstadt said. "We contract a lot of... what I would call the build-out, and what we're doing is we're using our resources to focus on marketing and innovation for the consumer."Since they acquired the name and history, Detroit Electric has a lot to live up to, but Graunstadt, a former Lotus executive, says their future is bright as the Motor City turns electric.

Off the Chain OpinionBy Charlie LeDuff
DETROIT – When the government cannot guarantee something as elemental as a person's vote, that government becomes illegitimate.
That's where we're at in Detroit after the spectacle perpetrated by the office of the City Clerk Janice Winfrey and by extension the Board of Elections. A banana republic.
Missing hash marks, tardy absentee ballots, candidates left off the ballots. 108 percent of the adult population registered to vote and the mysterious retirement of the director of the board of elections.
The aftermath of the Detroit primary this month devolved into such a sitcom that the write-in ballots had to be sent to Lansing for a proper counting, and now a judge up there is thinking of kicking the whole thing to the feds. Sheesh.
It's enough to launch a thousand conspiracy theories – see Tom Barrow. And conspiracy theories – like military juntas - do little to encourage democracy.
Instead of theories, I like to deal in facts. So along with veteran pollster and politico Steve Hood, I obtained the city's 2013 registered voters list, the state of Michigan's 2013 registered voter list and the city's absentee voter file from the 2013 mayoral primary. We ran the lists through a computer program and cross referenced the names, address and dates of birth. Then I got in my car and knocked on some random doors.
Now I am no election expert. I don't have the time to do a thorough job -- I will leave that to the professionals. But if what we found on the face of things is any indication, then somebody needs to take a fire hose to Winfrey's office and clean it out. The Iraqi election gave me more encouragement. At least voters there could be verified with purple ink-stained fingers.
To begin: the state voter id numbers are consistent. A voter, his registration and voting history can be tracked. On the other hand, the city's voter id numbers often don't match the state's -- as they should – and voting spreadsheets cannot link to each other.
"There is an obvious lack of quality control," Hood said. "It just reeks of incompetence at the very least."
According to an analysis of city and state records, there were more than 45 people over the age of 100 years who may have voted in the primary by absentee ballot.
One of them is Nina Davis, a spry 113-year-old. But a visit to Ms. Davis' door on the west side proved that there was no 113-year-old living there. Rather, there was Nina Davis, a veritable teenager at 98-years-old, who first voted for Franklin D. Roosevelt.
"They sent us two absentee ballots," said her daughter Beverly Davis. "We filled out one and threw away the other."
So Ms. Davis was not disenfranchised, she was over-enfranchised.
Then there is 90-year-old Mary Kelly. She mailed in an application for an absentee ballot. One week before the election she received not a ballot, but another application for a ballot. "I called up down there and they said they never received the application," said her godson, Raymond Stephen. "So I don't know why they'd send a second application. They couldn't explain."
Ms. Kelly never received her ballot to vote.
"I don't have any confidence in the system at all," said Mr. Stephen. " We need a federal monitor."
I could go on, but you get the point. Why should we be surprised that the vote tally may be suspect in a city where we can't count the money?
How much longer do you expect a Detroiter to keep the faith? Already, the city is ruled not by an elected official but a state-appointed financial autocrat.
I agree with Mr. Stephen -- 108 percent. We need an outsider to monitor the general election in November since the clerk seems to be asleep at the wheel, counting sheep.

No Jozy Altidore and Michael Bradley, no problem for the Americans last night as they beat their biggest rivals Mexico, 2-0. What is even more important the tickets can now be purchased to go watch them in Brazil in 2014 for the World Cup. I was able to watch the most of the game last night and the atmosphere in Columbus, Ohio was electric from the fans goose bump inducing singing of the National Anthem until Landon Donovan put the game away from two yards out in the 79th minute. Obviously soccer isn't the most popular sport in the world. I have heard that all my life and that is fine but what the Americans are doing should not go unnoticed.
The Americans win last night over Mexico has given them 13 wins in their last 14 matches between Friendly matches, World Cup Qualifying matches and a Gold Cup finals win back in July. Before Friday's 3-1 loss against Costa Rica on Friday the U.S. had won twelve straight games, scoring 39 goals. If you haven't watched a game, you need to. While many people think soccer is boring, this team will get your blood pumping and adrenaline going. They have found the back of the net consistently unlike scoring struggles in the 2006 and 2010 World Cup showings. I suggest getting on board now because summer 2014 the Americans might shock the rest of the world with their improved play.

You might not be familiar with the term 'Z-Movie,' but if you grew up in the 90's, chances are you've seen one. They're the beyond-low-budget monstrosities that teased you from the walls of the mom-and-pop video store. Usually, the films themselves could never live up to the pictures on the videotape boxes (because this was way before your fancy 'Digital Video Discs' and 'Blu-Rays') but occasionally you'd find something truly unique. 'WEIRDO FLICKS' will clue you into some movies which 'unique' doesn't even begin to describe...
'Evil in the Woods' - 1986, Directed by William J. Oates
You KNOW a film is going to be idiosyncratic when there's one guy as the writer, director AND producer. What we've got here is a knowingly-silly horror-comedy that's also UN-knowingly awful. It's like double-dramatic irony times nine. THEY think the joke's on you, but it's really on them, but it's actually on you for sitting through this thing.
Perhaps the strangest part of the film is that it's ambitiously complex for a homemade horror flick. I mean, this thing's got more story strands than 'Magnolia.' It's also a story-within-a-story-within-a-story. Actually, 3 stories-within-a-story-within-a-story...or something like that.
The film starts off with a young boy named Billy checking out a book called 'Evil in the Woods' from his local library. He's exceptionally rude to the librarian, and the book is clearly not made for children. As he's reading it, a hillbilly narrator jumps in and we cut to the a few of the book's stories. One is about a film crew making a horror movie in some woods that are actually filled with evil. THAT story cuts awkwardly between THEIR film and the real-life evil.
Then, there's a story about a boy named Billy (played by the same actor as the book-reading Billy) going camping with his family...he too wanders into the evil woods and gets lost. He stumbles upon an inbred family in a cabin which apparently is the 'evil in the woods.' The mother of the family cooks him into stew (which takes like 3 days) and eats him, and then becomes young again.
I won't 'ruin' anymore of the plot for you, but suffice to say it just keeps going from there. Oh yeah, and in REAL life, the kid reading the book has some kind of evil in his closet, but it's only mentioned a couple times. Also, the second half of the film COMPLETELY neglects to cut back to the kid reading, so that becomes an obsolete plot arc as well. Whatever.
I love this kind of movie, and had a good laugh at all the confusion and bad acting. Not an hour and a half I regret. At least, not yet...
Apparently this is the only version of the film in print right now. There's not even a trailer on YouTube...just this:

PKF – Prague Philharmonia is launching a new web and celebrates the Christmas with a premiere of Macedonian grand piano concert

Merry Christmas and joyful step into the new year 2014!

The quartet likes working with Nikl for his ability to improvise.
"Sometimes he will surprise us during a concert by starting to play on one of his objects, which takes us to a completely new plane of improvisation," Pavliš says.
"By tapping on a Plexiglas bowl I can turn it into a percussion instrument and, very softly, join in the music," Nikl explains. "I never rehearse anything. I try to live in the moment, and every time I do it a little differently."
The orchestra's style has come a long way since they formed the band 20 years ago. Back then the students of the Musical Arts Academy called themselves the Czech Clarinet Quartet and played primarily classical music. But working with jazz singer Jana Koubková changed that.
"She told us, 'Boys, throw away those notes and try to improvise with me right here onstage.' It seemed pretty wild to us at first, but we tried it and found out that we're pretty good at it and that we like it," Pavliš says. After experimenting with many different genres: jazz, chansons, swing compositions, they finally decided to write their own music.
"Often somebody has an idea and we improvise on it, like rock bands do. Other times someone comes up with his own composition and there's just nothing to improve. Sometimes it takes years to ripen. We don't like it so we put it away in a drawer and then someone has a genial idea to liven it up and suddenly it works," he says.
Over time, their listeners have changed along with their music.
"We used to have a clearly defined audience. Nowadays it's mixed: a lot of young people looking for different genres, people who like classical music looking for something more, or people who don't like classical music looking for something more. Basically, we appeal to people who aren't satisfied with the playlists of commercial radio."
The concert, organized by the PKF - Prague Philharmonia comes a few weeks after the lunch of the Clarinet Factory's new album "Worx and Reworx," a medley of the quartet's original songs plus reinterpretations by musicians from the USA, France, Germany, Great Britain, Japan and Greece.
The Clarinet Factory is no stranger to international cooperation.
"We have worked with artists from the US, Germany, Japan and France. Our most prestigious cooperation was with Bobby McFerrin at his Prague concert and our most exotic tours were in Algeria and Senegal." Pavliš recalls.
"We went there with Jana Koubková and held workshops for the local kids. They ended up really liking the music although they had never heard it before. We played them a few Renaissance polyphonies and, once we explained what was going on, they took to it quite well."

Anniversaries in Year of the Czech Music 2014 had changed the program
PKF – Prague Philharmonia conducted by Jiří Bělohlávek commemorates Anniversaries in Year of Czech Music at April concert in the Spanish Hall
Current Honorary Art Director of PKF - Prague Philharmonia, Jiří Bělohlávek, is opening a festive evening with a familiar composition - The Prague Nocturne by Petr Eben. This piece, composed as a tribute to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (as indicated in its subheading - Hommage à W. A. Mozart), was performed by Bělohlávek, PKF and Dagmar Pecková, mezzo-soprano, at the Prague Spring Festival in 2009.
"Through my music, I wanted to put myself more into Mozart's grief and sadness, than into much admired joyful brightness of his style. After all, his usual smile was appearing rather scarcely during his last visit of Prague," comments the author of the piece, Petr Eben, on the composing work. It will be followed by popular Slovak Suite, op. 32 by Vítězslav Novák, released on CD by PKF – Prague Philharmonia led by Jiří Bělohlávek as its Chief Conductor in 1998.
After paying homage to Anniversaries, the ensemble will play a very arduous piece by Richard Strauss, orchestral suite Le Bourgeois gentilhomme, inspired by well-known Molliére's play. Listeners will have a chance to hear arrangement of the piece, originally conducted by Richard Strauss himself at its premiere at Vienna in 1920.
Concert is held by PKF – Prague Philharmonia in Spanish Hall of the Prague Castle from 7 P.M. The tickets are available in three categories – for 800,- , 680,- and 510,- CZK. Buy or book the tickets online on www.pkf.cz in Concerts section, in PKF – Prague Philharmonia office, Husova 7, Prague 1 (telephone number 224 267 644, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com), in information office at Prague Castle, or at the place of the venue, one hour before the beginning of the concert.

The PKF – Prague Philharmonia celebrates its 20th anniversary this season
On the occasion of the twentieth century of their founding, which may have occurred in fall but will full the entire season with celebratory spirit, the group will reward its audience with
- exquisite and original dramaturgy,
- attract resounding names for soloists and conductors from the far corners of the world and from right here at home,
- and keep with tradition by presenting the premiere of one of the freshest works of music, this time from a Czech composer.
The 2014-2015 season will begin between 28 September and 5 October with a specially conceived project, "20 Years in Style", in which it will offer three pivotal concerts of the season under the batons of chief conductors who helped create its history and contributed to its artistic profile.
The celebratory spirit will grow ever more with its firm foundation of accompanying programs and media events.
The quality of the prepared program will be ensured by top soloists and conductors who have accepted our invitations for our celebratory season:
- the star soprano Kate Royal,
- the virtuoso violinist Isabelle Faust,
- the world-famous cellist Mischa Maisky,
- the leading French conductor Emmanuel Villaume,
- first flautist of the Berlin Philharmonic Emmanuel Pahud,
- first-class Russian conductor Evgeny Bushkov,
- the talented young pianist Denis Kozhukhin,
- the brilliant trumpetist Gábor Boldoczki,
- the versatile German conductor Philipp von Steinaecker,
- the excellent clarinettist and conductor Paul Meyer,
- the prized soprano Simona Houda Šaturová,
- the leading domestic mezzo-soprano Jana Wallingerová,
- the internationally renowned tenor Richard Samek,
- and one of the most interesting contemporary Czech bassists, Jan Martiník.
This not to mention the performances of the excellent soloists from the ranks of the PKF – Prague Philharmonia itself, such as:
- violinist Jan Fišer,
- cellist Lukáš Pospíšil,
- oboist Jan Souček,
- and bassoonist Tomáš Františ.
"While a true recap would yet be premature given the age of the PKF – Prague Philharmonia, we can certainly say that in the 20 years of its existence it has brought the Czech cultural environment a series of valuable new programs and introduced its domestic audience to many of the gems of world renowned yet still fresh artistic faces. It often thrived in the classics but never hesitated to experiment.
The concept of the upcoming season is to continue in this spirit and use these prepared projects to enhance and reinforce who PKF has become in the past 20 years, how far it has come.As I just mentioned, in addition to the musical program we will invite listeners from the wider and non-musical public as well to participate in a series of additional activities, such as the documentary film about PKF produced by Czech Television, a broadcast of the introductory concert of Jakub Hrůša and the entrancing Kate Royal, special radio programs, projections, media activities in social media networks, and more," states the director of the PKF – Prague Philharmonia Radim Otépka about the celebratory season, which will be linked and differentiated from other seasons with the special logo and tagline "20 Years in Style".
"We consider the '20 Years in Style' project particularly appealing, as in addition to current and former chief composers Jakub Hrůša, Kaspar Zehnder and Jiří Bělohlávek and other wonderful personalities it will offer other concert selections long favoured by PKF:
- Concerts for Children and Schools,
- Contemporary Concert Cycle,
- Chamber Cycle,
- Special Concert,
- Special Concert for Children
In addition to the musical events and other accompanying program, the PKF – Prague Philharmonia will have another important occasion in the upcoming season – after seven years the current chief conductor and music director Jakub Hrůša by bringing audiences the opportunity to see him in the concert hall throughout the season.
"If I remember well, I first conducted PKF (like many of my young colleagues) at a children's concert in 2002. At the moment of the closing concert of the 2014-2015 that will make a beautiful thirteen years of life together. From 2005 I was honoured with the position of permanent guest conductor, and from 2008 I was the chief conductor. I strongly desire to continue my association with the orchestra in the future. Right now I am feeling above all the need to express my great thanks. I am going on my own conviction that it is time to take a step onward, and now I know that I will always remember the serial PKF concerts with nostalgia," Hrůša states.
The project "20 Years in Style" will immediately set the season's bar high: "We built a dramaturgy that symbolically shows all the various faces of PKF activity – Czech and international classical music (Voříšek and Beethoven with Jiří Bělohlávek), energetic and vocal performance ("Romany" operetta program with the Kalandos Ensemble, soprano Julia Kamenik, and Kaspar Zehnder in the Smetana Hall of Obecní Dům) and an ambitious and extensive concert experience with me (we will perform Mahler's Symphony No. 4 for the first time in Prague; it is a composition that stands at the conceptual peak of the creative aspirations of an orchestra of our type; it is amazing that we have won the first class international vocalist Kate Royal for this collaboration)," says Jakub Hrůša of the program of three introductory concerts, who will direct the commencement concert in the Rudolfinum, with tape delay broadcast immediately following thanks to Czech Television through the ČT Art channel. During the break viewers will also see the premiere of the documentary film about PKF – Prague Philharmonia produced by Czech Television.
The program will not be wanting for representatives of the Czech musical elite as well – in the last concert of the "20 Years in Style" project, the Thálie 2001 recipients for best female vocal performance, the soprano with the brilliant full voice Simona Houda Šaturová will perform under the baton of conductor Jiří Bělohlávek, the leading local mezzo-soprano Jana Wallingerová, permanent guest of the Staatsoperette Dresden, tenor Richard Samek, and one of the most significant Czech musicians of his generation, the bassist Jan Martiník. The second and third concert will also be accompanied by choirs – the Prague Philharmonic Choir and the Czech Philharmonic Choir of Brno. The concerts of the "20 Years in Style" project will take place 28 September, 1 October and 5 October.
A total of nine concerts of the Orchestral Cycle will offer work from all creative periods from older classicism to the contemporary Czech premiere of a composition by Miroslav Srnka.
Certain concerts will be specially focussed on key composers, in whose interpretation the PKF has excelled from the beginning – leader of the classical period Joseph Haydn and the great German romantic Robert Schumann.
With the Haydn program one of the most promising representatives of the middle composing generation and a great Russian artist Evgeny Bushkov will be featured with the orchestra, whose baton will direct his countryman, the young and talented pianist Denis Kozhukhin, who will perform in the concert together with the renowned Hungarian trumpetist Gábor Boldoczki.
Chief Conductor Jakub Hrůša will himself become a representative of Schumann's repertoire when in the charismatic company of the international cellist Mischa Maisky, who will subsequently tour Japan, he presents the composer's prelude to the dramatic poem Manfred.
In addition to Schumann the evening will also be dominated by the contemporary Czech composer Miroslav Srnka, whose composition entitled No Night No Land No Sky, a commissioned composition for the PKF – Prague Philharmonia and the Kölner Philharmonie, will soon enjoy its Czech premiere.
Other ambassadors of Schumann's works will include the German conductor and cellist Philipp von Steinaecker, who this time will allow his conductor's role to take the fore, and the unmistakeable and highly sought after German violinist, renowned for the contours of her performance and the purity of her tone, Isabelle Faust. Both compositional subjects will then meet in a March concert in the noble Spanish Hall of Prague Castle, where the PKF – Prague Philharmonia recently performed two exceptional concerts. Its protagonist shall be a French solo clarinettist and composer who during one evening will carry out both his artistic roles, Paul Meyer. While Meyer is a very active representative of contemporary music and many contemporary concerts have been organized for him specifically, this time he will prepare for listeners a classically oriented program.
The penultimate orchestral concert welcomes two of the same name – Emmanuels Villaume and Pahud. The renowned French composer, currently the visiting chief conductor of The Slovak Philharmonic, will meet for the first time with the Berlin Philharmonic flautist in a performance of works by O. Messiaen, W. A. Mozart, and G. Bizet. The final stroke of the season will be the last of the set of three concerts of works by Joseph Haydn. With the participation of soloists from the PKF orchestra – concert masters Jan Fišer and Lukáš Pospíšil, as well as oboist Jan Souček and bassoonist Tomáš Františ – Jakub Hrůša will wave his conductor's baton for the last time and lead a joyful journey of "nature, life, and love" (Antonín Dvořák — "Nature, Life, and Love", a cycle of three concert symphonies for grand orchestra).

The man suspected of killing three women in East Cleveland has been charged with kidnapping and aggravated murder.
Michael Madison made his first court appearance late Monday morning and waived his right to a preliminary hearing. His bond was set at $6M.
Madison, 35, was arrested after a short standoff Friday in connection with the discovery of the first female body found in a garage. Police found two more female bodies in an abandoned house on Saturday afternoon.
19 Action News Reporter Scott Taylor has learned Madison has confessed to one murder and did give police the locations of two of the three bodies.
One of the three victims found murdered and wrapped in plastic in the area of Hayden and Shaw over the weekend has been positively identified.
According to the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner, victim #2, Angela Deskins, 38, was identified by fingerprints. Deskins was last seen in Cleveland on June 7.
The other two victims were very decomposed, and a final cause of death cannot be released at this time.
One of the victims has a red star with black lines on her thumb, the name "Gene" and red lips tattooed on her left forearm. Other identifiable remarks include a flower with green leaves on her front left thigh. Authorities also say she has Lil' Wayne on her left breast. On the left side of her neck "Antion" and on her right hand "Chris."
Reporter Ed Gallek has found that Madison has been on the streets since 2005. In 2000, Madison did three months in prison on two drug cases.
In 2002, he served time for attempted rape and possession of drugs.
He was released in October of 2005 on parole and he was released from parole in October of 2008.
Anyone with information on this case is urged to call 1-800-CALL-FBI.

By Charlie LeDuffFox 2 News Reporter GROSSE POINTE PARK, Mich. (WJBK) -- As if the feds weren't already hanging more paper than an interior decorator on suspect government officials out of Wayne County, Fox 2 has confirmed yet another grand jury investigation.This time it's Michigan Supreme Court Justice Diane Hathaway, who told her bank she was too poor to live in tony Grosse Pointe Park, and the bank agreed.So what's she doing living in tony Grosse Pointe Park?This is a tale of four houses. Let's begin with the one of Lakeview where she lived with her husband, a successful slip and fall lawyer. They said they couldn't afford the $1.5 million mortgage and had to move out, so the bank allowed them to sell the home for about half of what they owed on it. That's called a short sale."You have to demonstrate a hardship, something that's changed in your life that no longer allows you to meet your obligations on a mortgage loan. What we see most commonly is a change in employment status, a change in marital status or some sort of health concerns," said real estate lawyer T. Scott Galloway.But what hardship? She's got a job, he's got a job, and they own two other houses. The feds think this whole deal might be garbage.Before she was approved for the short sale, she gave away one of her homes to her stepdaughter, a swanky pad in Florida with a boat dock worth three quarters of a million dollars. A house that they owned outright.She also gave a home to her stepson just a stone's throw away from the short sale house. She paid $170,000 cash for it in 2010.Last November, the short sale went through and Hathaway sold her $1.5 million mortgage to a guy for $850,000.So Hathaway is homeless, right? Wrong. Yet another stepdaughter bought a house in Grosse Pointe Park for $200,000 just months before the short sale, and just a few months after the short sale that stepdaughter signed it over to the judge. Then the other stepdaughter after the short sale went through signed the Florida house back over to the judge.One more thing. According to documents obtained by Fox News, the feds are looking at a possible tax fraud because when Hathaway owned the home that she gave to her stepson and the short sale house, tax breaks were claimed on both when you're only entitled to claim it on one.Justice Hathaway wouldn't answer our questions.

Mike Williams, project superintendent with Newport Beach-based HBI Construction, said his company expects to turn over the project to Walmart in early December, and a grand opening could happen in January.
Though Walmart officials have not committed to an opening deadline, spokeswoman Delia Garcia confirmed this week that the company will open a local hiring center before the end of the year.
Walmart began setting up a 3,000-square-foot hiring center next to Cheryl Lane's Cakery at North El Circulo and Plaza Circle last week, and officials say it is slated to open soon.
"We're moving along with construction very quickly," Garcia said Monday, Sept. 24. "We're very excited to open a store in Patterson, and we know customers are waiting for it. We're eager to deliver a store and with that, new jobs, and we're eager to serve customers in Patterson."
Walmart officials initially announced in 2011 that they intended to open the store in time for the 2012 holiday season. In March, however, they said the project had been delayed as company and construction officials wrangled with how to proceed with soil preparation and building.
Despite the setback, progress on the project is now clear even to passers-by. HBI Construction workers have completed some of the building's walls, and the construction site is bustling.
Williams, the project superintendent, said he was pleased with the pace of activity.
"I feel good about it," Williams said. "We've got things up to full speed, and we're making good progress on it."
More than 100 people are working on building construction, Williams said, and an additional 30 to 40 people are working with heavy equipment on the site, he said.
Construction crews could be seen working on the intersection of Ward and Sperry avenues this week. Infrastructure improvements there will allow Walmart to connect to the city's sewers, according to Mike Willett, public works director for the city of Patterson. Last week, Willett said, the crews added infrastructure at the same intersection to tap into the city's nonpotable water supply for landscaping.
Walmart will also eventually pay to add an audible traffic signal at Sperry and Ward avenues to help people with limited vision, in accordance with an agreement it made with the city in 2010, though Willett was not sure when that would happen.
The Patterson Walmart will have an outdoor garden center and a pharmacy and will offer household items including electronics and apparel. It will also have a full grocery department, including produce, meat and dairy products, a bakery and a deli.
Daniel Morales, a spokesman for Walmart, said employees are typically hired 60 days before a store opens, but Garcia, the Walmart spokeswoman, said that could vary depending upon the project.
The future supercenter will employ about 300 people once it opens, according to company officials. People can apply for those positions online at http://careers.walmart.com.
In addition to the big-box retailer, the surrounding shopping center will have three outlets with a total of 20,000 square feet of shopping and restaurant space.
Chinese fast-food chain Panda Express purchased a pad in the future shopping center, Patterson City Manager Rod Butler confirmed last week. In addition, the Newport Beach-based Pacific Development Group is under contract to purchase a couple of pads in the retail development.
Pacific Development Group and its partners own and manage almost 2.5 million square feet of commercial buildings with about 700 tenants, according to the company's website.
Its Northern California projects include the Tracy Gateway shopping center at Corral Hollow Road and 11th Street in Tracy, anchored by Save Mart Supermarkets and Walgreens, and a center near Home Depot and WinCo Foods in Tracy that includes Round Table Pizza and Jamba Juice.
Butler said the potential participation of Pacific Development Group "bodes well" for the future shopping center.
"They're definitely a major player in terms of these shopping center pads," Butler said

Hi Ladies,
I am introducing myself here. I'm 28. I had miscarriages in May of 2008 and February of 2009. We haven't been able to get pregnant since. I have a unicorneal uterus with only one tube, and my hormone levels are kinda bad - CD 3 testing showed low estrogen, etc. I'm normally a lurker, but I'm 5 days post my first IUI, and I am going insane. I want to test!!!!
Started the cycle with letrozole, then switched to Bravelle from Day 7 through 11. (started at 150ml, then dialed back to 75 ml after day 9 - I was responding too well. Triggered on Day 12, with a good strong OPK positive that night. IUI on 9/11. I have been taking progesterone suppositories since 2 days post IUI, and have a lot of side effects - feeling tired, sore boobs, scatterbrained, etc.
I'm so hopeful about this cycle. I had three mature follies on the side where I have a tube, and DH's sample was 18 million. I'm desperately trying not to get my hopes up, but it's hard. And the waiting is killing me.
When is the earliest I could reasonably test?
Sorry for the double posts, trying to get the hang of this.

Well I can pretty much understand what they mean but I can't remember them when I'm trying to post LOL.
Hello and welcome Brie sounds like you've had a rough go around, you're not alone going crazy with the waiting that's for sure! I have a test waiting for me...it claims it can read up to 4 days prior with some pretty ugly low percentages so I'm going to resist (I hope) until I'm overdue for beta (after Saturday)...God willing I have the patience to wait until day 2 but *shrug* you know how it is.[/
Hi Brie--
Good luck to you this cycle! I know at least somewhat how you feel--I am 12 days post my first IUI and it's been a very long 12 days. I think, because you triggered, you want to be sure the trigger shot is out of your system--perhaps someone who has triggered can chime in on that (I didn't use a trigger myself but remember reading about it on other posts). I think the trigger can give you a positive.
Does anyone know if beta changes back to original normal day after stopping chlomid the first month? I O'ed on my normal day without taking meds so I'm wondering if beta comes at a predetermined time after O.
I am supposed to beta today...I think...I usually start on day 25 (which is today) but when I take chlomid I start on day 30. I did not take it this cycle so I'm really not sure what to expect.
Last week I went to a baby shower and it was horrible for me. I had every bad emotion you can think of but mostly resentment. She had told everyone that she never wanted to have children up until a few months after she got done with college. When I was telling her my feelings about STC for over 5 years she told me she was worried she couldn't get PG because she had been on the pill for so long. She got PG a month later which was 2 months of TTC...I was getting ready to take my first dose of chlomid and she was trying to be encouraging saying that we could be PG together. Now she's due in December and I've been left behind. The last time a friend of mine had a baby (an oopsie at that) I cried on my way to work and felt so ashamed of myself for being so bitter and selfish. I think this time will be worse because of how she didn't want children before and that she wasn't even that interested when she began trying.
Hi ladies, my name is Anisa and I am 25. I had an IUI 6 days ago. I took clomid and did an injection of HCG before doing the IUI. I'm waiting to do the test but I am impatient. I don't have any other children and we are trying to conceive for about 2 yrs and a half. This is my first try with IUI. Can you tell me if the cramping are normal ? What other symptoms did you have after ding an IUI?
Anisa :-)
AF showed up today
HcG 279 15dpo.
Waiting to hear on progesterone.
I am oh-so-cautiously excited.
Hello ladies!
I'll be joining y'all. My husband and I will have our first IUI this cycle. My mid-cycle US is on the 5th of October. They dont have me trying injectables, just Clomid (100mg) days 5-9.
to you all!
First beta Monday was 279.
Second one today, almost exactly 48 hours later, 763.
Progesterone 121
I'm PREGNANT!
stick, bean, stick!
Sharon - Congrats on your and on your numbers doubling!!!
Sara13 - Good luck this cycle!
Stacie - I saw your news about the two sacs, I am so excited for you!!!!
Marandakay - So sorry about AF showing her face
I realize I never posted my update in this thread. I had my IUI on September 15th. It went well. We had 2 million sperm after watch. I have been a little worried about the number but the RE's office seemed happy with it. I have been having some interesting symptoms like extreme hunger and what feels like pregnancy brain. The last time I felt like this was when I was pregnant with my son. I'm trying not to read too much into it though. We've had so much disappointment and heartache I have to keep a bit of a wall up so I don't crumble. I am going to test on Monday when I will be 12DPO.
Grats on the BFP!!!
I am really encouraged by your symptoms and can't wait until Monday to hear POAS results!
Ladies, sorry about the ticker. Still new at this...
Femara sux...just plain sux...if this is what menopause is like I think I'll pass! This month I'm going to try Femara and next month DH and I have to decide if we want to do an IUI and pay the $400 for it; plus he's being wierd and is questioning the morality of it. WTF, I don't see the big deal at all but I need to find a way to get him on the same page. Any pointers? He has never been religious and knows nothing about religion but he's lately been spiritual. That's a good thing but I can't get him to go to church to find the answers he wants.
I work at the airport and I saw two adorable babies in a row and my right ovaries started really hurting...BADLY! Maybe that's a good thing? I've been thinking about it and I would be totally ok with twins...there I go, wishful thinking *sigh*.
Sharon, I hope you will be a graduate so much! I hope we all will be, I've always been a good luck charm to people with good karma so I'm hoping I can help us all out.
Going to try my best not to get my hopes up so if any of you ladies can give me any kind of advise for IUI I would be grateful!
Hi ladies - I will be having my first IUI next month. My RE only mentioned Clomid - nothing about a trigger shot. Is this something I should ask for?
I might have an IUI next month as well...depends on if the Femara works or if DH will spend the money. I don't think you need the trigger with the Chlomid because I believe they work differently than Femara or else your body is different. Not really sure.
Thanks for the good wishes.
I am still stalking you all and hope you'll also be graduates very soon.
I am still not believing I am.
Mina, I did not have a trigger shot with clomid. I would definitely get clarification from your doc about why. I ovulate on my own, but my doc recommended clomid when we decided to try IUI--success rate for IUI's goes up when you do medicated, according to her.
Maranda, good luck with the conversation about IUI with DH. I don't have any pointers about how to talk with him about it, other than listen as best you can.
I hope your aching ovaries are a good sign--I thought mine were going to bust out of my gut this cycle while I was ovulating!
Hi to all I am new to this site and I want to share some of my symptoms I've scheduled during tww. I'm still waiting. Fingers crossed.
I have done an IUI on the 13th using Clomid 100 and my last period was on the 31st Aug. My ovary released 3 eggs. I hope one got.
DPO1 - major cramps front
DPO2 - little creamy cm, cramps
DPO3 - creamy cm, HUNGRY, cramps
DPO4 - creamy cm, hungry, pain on the left ovary
DPO5 - yellow CM, tired, cramping, hungry, dizzy, hot
DPO6 - sore bbs, cramps, tired, hungry , creamy cm, headache, gas, nausea
DPO7 - sore bbs, cramps in , stabbing pain on left side, gas,
hungry, nausea
DP08 - irritable, stabby pain on left,sore bbs, nausea
DPO9 - bad AF type cramping, HUGE sore bbs
DPO10 - heavy crampy feeling low down in
pelvis and left side, creamy cm, very sore bbs, nausea
DPO11 - heavy crampy feeling low down in
pelvis and left side, creamy cm, very sore bbs, nausea
DPO12 - woke up in the middle of the night several times to wee, gassy
Even though I swore I'd wait to test until 14 DPO, my PoaS
addiction won over when I was weak and half asleep. BFN! I decided to wait few more days though and test
DPO13 - Headache, tired, huge sore bbs. nausea,
DPO14 - Still bad cramps like Af cramps. huge sore bbs. hungry. Tested again early in the morning . I think I saw a line, very very faint, Nevertheless I did a blood test and tomorrow I'll take the results. I hope it's positive.
Wish me luck.
Baby dust to all of you that are waiting.
Oh GL GL GL GL!!! Have you ever taken chlomid before? For me I had all of those symptoms except CM and it made my AF 5 days late. Faint line sounds very encouraging! *baby dust*
Sharon, I hope your ovaries feeling full is worth the discomfort and you get a BPF! I have an idea...let's get a BFP together this month! How does that sound :-P

Steamed Baby Bok Choy with Mango Chili Vinegar
16 comments:
wow Melody!ReplyDelete
I only had paneer once.. I don't really remember it. . But I do LOVE Indian food!
Oh how I wished I lived anywhere near a trader joes.. we ALAWYS hit one on vacation. That mango chili would be a big hit in our house!
OMG! Melody, I wish you'd tested this product last week! The TJ's closest to me is around 40 minutes away, but can be close to an hour with traffic I'll definitely have to test that out...I always walk past the oils and vinegars but never want to test it out. Thanks for taking the plunge for us!ReplyDelete
PS: Your pictures are always beautiful!
Your leftovers look so beautiful! I love Trader Joes too. I guess I am lucky that I have one a few miles awayReplyDelete
I have also been eyeing their new vinegars! I think I'm that much closer to picking it up.ReplyDelete
Your tofu paneer looks SO much better than the actual paneer I tried once, and was not a fan of.
You convinced me to try the mango chili vinegar, I will never roast vegetables without it again (ok, I might be going slightly exaggerating there). But seriously, it's good. I'm going to try and formulate the perfect salad to put it on. Maybe something involving cashews and mandarin oranges...ReplyDelete
those baby bok choy look so cute , perky & tasty.ReplyDelete
aren't trader joe's sauces the best? i always over buy---it's not like I'm starving, but I come home with way more stuff than the two of us need.
Melody, I am drooling over your last several posts!ReplyDelete
We actually have a Trader Joe's just over an hour away now, and we're making the trip one day this week. I'll have to look for that vinegar--who can say no to mango?
I can't wait to try that mango vinegar! Everything goes better with some mango... I so dearly love Trader Joe's. I wish i could move one of ours here closer to you, Melody!ReplyDelete
Your colourful tofu paneer looks really really beautiful. I mean aesthetically pleasing... and no doubt mouth watering!
When i go to my fave veg restaurant, SIPZ, they put bok choy in a few of my fave dishes... It's such a cool veggie... i mean, if veggies can be "cool." This is really attractive, what you did.

Home > Grinding Wheels > Norton White Grinding Wheel
The white aluminum oxide is the standard for grinding cutting tools such as chisels and plane irons. Unlike the gray wheels that come with most bench grinders, these wheels help keep your tool much cooler so your tool doesn't overheat and weaken your cutting edge. Our medium 60 grit is a good way to grind your initial bevel. Our 100 grit provides a finer edge. The very fine 150 grit is the finest grinding wheel we carry. After grinding, a few strokes on a bench stone and your tools are ready for use. This wheel is a J Grade. The 8" wheel has a 1" arbor hole with bushings for 7/8", 3/4" and 5/8" arbors. The 6" wheels have a 1" arbor hole with bushings for 7/8", 3/4", 5/8" and 1/2" arbors. Rated at 3600 rpm.
