The latest track of Hurricane Sandy has the storm pushing farther west according to this morning's meteorologist reports. The National Hurricane Center has the center of the storm going either into Southern New Jersey or Delaware.
This is a constantly changing storm and a more northern track, which is possible, would bring more significant impacts into New England.
According to WHDH Meteorologist Chris Lambert, the current likely scenario would bring wind and rain Monday afternoon through Tuesday with wind gusts of 40-60 mph, mostly onshore, strongest at coast with up to 5 inches of rain expected throughout the storm's duration. Power outages are likely, along with beach erosion and coastal flooding during high tides.
Lambert says it's still a "very complicated and anomalous pattern" and thus the timing is tricky.
If Sandy maintains a warm core longer into the forecast period, it may hold on longer than some of the models project. If that happens, the turn northwest into the coast would happen farther north and put southern New England in a more serious situation than the current path would take it.
The National Hurricane Center has the hurricane currently with sustained winds of 80 mph, moving north at 13 mph. The storm is expected to decrease in speed today, followed by a turn toward the north tonight, and a turn toward the northeast on Saturday. The center of the storm will continue moving near the northwestern Bahamas this morning and move north of the Bahamas tonight.
Hurricane force winds extend outward up to 35 miles from the center, with tropical storm force winds extending up to 275 miles. Sandy's wind field is expected to grow in size during the next couple of days.

Well, here we are again. This is our fourth child and we are now 4 out of 4 for PIH. With our first 3 children, it showed up between week 33 and week 35. All three were induced at 38 weeks.
The symptoms has showed up over the last week ... and my wife is only 27 weeks pregnant. We are very concerned.
We saw the OB yesterday and he was essentially unconcerned. Her BP was 164/92 and he just had her lay down and suggested she "take it easy." No bed rest. No drugs. No additional tests.
I am feeling overwhelmed. My wife is not able to function and we were not prepared for this to happen this early. I have no family or friends who can help for at least another month. I am working 45 hour weeks at work and doing all the work at home. And I have to be the one who is calm and re-assuring because the kids (ages 6, 3, and 1 1/2) are worried too.
We are looking into either getting a second opinion and/or switching OBs, but my wife really does not want to move to a different practice this late in the game.
I guess I just needed to vent. Gotta go back to work now.

Morning DiscussionI'm still catching up on my Inter-reading, and beginning to suspect that people are in fact writing new things all the time, so here's another wodge of links for you this rainy/snowy/dry/damp/wet/hot/cold/sleety/arid/scorching Friday/Saturday.
A collection of Czech and Polish posters for Godzilla and other Japanese monster movies. They're very stylish and cool, though 'Son of Godzilla' is curiously unsettling.
Branding blog Brand New takes a look at THQ's new logo and concludes that while there are a few problems, "it is a bold improvement over the previous one."
A video trip down the London sewers, complete with gawping at fatbergs and sniffing out how posh an area is. Pleasant lunchtime viewing.
Telephones ruin society, Wondermark discovered. Not your 'iPouch' or whatever it is you crazy kids gush over, but those old wired telephones (you don't believe me but these genuinely did exist). Back in 1889. It's been downhill since then, we can all agree.

John Chevilott found a gun, secured it, brought it back to the road yard in Westland, which is Wayne County property, before he turned it into police. That seems to be where the problem lies because right now in Wayne County there is not a policy describing what to do if an employee finds a gun on the job.
Hidden in weeds in Detroit's Brightmoor area, Chevilott and his Wayne County crew discovered a loaded, snubnosed revolver as they were mowing the lawn mid-morning on May 3.
"It was damaged, so it could've went off. Surprisingly, it didn't kill the guy on the mower," Chevilott explained. "It got picked up, so we put [it] in the van, waited [for] police to drive by."
However, Detroit police never did drive by, so Chevilott finished his work day, drove the gun home and later that same evening turned it into his local police department in Garden City.
He says the cops ran the gun and discovered the weapon had been stolen from St. Clair Shores in 2005.
"They said I did the right thing getting it off the street."
However, Chevilott's superiors at the Department of Public Services had a much different opinion. His foreman, who had knowledge of the situation, was suspended for 30 days, and after 23 years on the job, Chevilott was fired for violating department policies.
According to a Wayne County spokeswoman and the rules, employees aren't allowed to possess a weapon on work property.
Chevilott says he didn't bring a weapon to work. He found it on the job.
"There is no policy. I've never seen a policy what to do if we find a gun out here. So, all I did was secure the situation to make sure nobody else got hurt or killed."
"They did a good thing. They took a gun off the streets and they're being punished," said Local 101 President Thomas Richards.
Chevilott also was let go for insubordination and unauthorized access to the road yard.
Richards says he's fighting all three accusations that are over the top and without merit.
"There's never been any policy brought to light on what we should do when they find a weapon," he told us.
The union has filed a grievance. Chevilott does want to get his job back. He was just two years shy of retirement.

Family and friends held a funeral Sunday for a young boy run down by a truck in Harlem as he was heading to school Thursday morning.
6-year-old Amar Diarrassouba's small casket was brought inside the Masid Aqsa mosque as his parents stood by along with crying mourners.
Amar was killed Thursday morning as he walked to his school near 117th Street and First Avenue when he was hit by a turning truck around 8:00 a.m.
Police say the crossing guard Flavia Roman, who was assigned to that intersection, was not at the location. Roman has been suspended without pay for 30 days because of the incident.
Authorities are still investigating the accident, but Roman has not been charged with a crime.
Amar's mother, Mehichata said Roman was welcome to attend the funeral, but Roman's lawyer said she did not plan to attend.
The boy was buried at Mount Prospect Cemetery in Neptune, NJ.

The MTA will refurbish and reopen an old, unused subway station to serve the No. 1 train while the Sandy-devastated South Ferry station is rebuilt.
Superstorm Sandy pushed 15 million gallons of water into the South Ferry station, filling it the track level to the mezzanine and destroying all electrical and mechanical systems, the MTA said.
Crews will likely need about two years to rebuild the station. MTA Interim Executive Director Thomas Prendergast said that was too long for customers to not have a direct link to the lower tip of Manhattan.
In the interim, the MTA will run No. 1 trains to the old South Ferry loop station, which actually sits above the damaged station.
That old station, which was used until 2009, can only accommodate 5 subway cars at a time, whereas most trains run 10 cars. The platform at that station is curved, which means its moveable platform extenders, which bridge gaps between the platform and the cars, will need to be refurbished with new pistons and other components, the MTA said.
Workers will also need to install electrical feeds, closed-circuit TV systems, intercoms, security cameras, and radio communications in the dispatcher's office, the MTA said. Crews will also need to restore lighting on the platforms and in the tracks, repair and repaint station walls, and fix up the entrance. All that will cost about $2 million.
The MTA hopes to have the old station ready for service the first week of April, 2013.

I just bought this Hobe in Ochre today at TJ Maxx for $90. Quite the deal. Love it!!
Sunday March 30 2014
I love this purse. However in my opinion the middle section is just wasted space. It's too limp to serve as a divider for sections as it just falls to the bottom of the purse. You have to hunt it to put anything in it then it falls back to the bottom again. Either do away with it altogether or use a leather divider.
Wednesday January 8 2014
Very soft leather and very pretty purse but I wish it had a zipper closure , it has one small magnetic snap ... I am worried my things will fall out when I lay my purse around.

If you are ready to get back in the dating game, why not start with Valentine's Day?
Use the holiday as an opportunity to rejuvenate your love life. If you want a dating jump start, consider some tips from April Masini, dating expert and advice columnist.
For starters, first impressions are important. "They are immediate, long lasting, and usually permanent," she says. "Your dating success will be based almost entirely upon the other person's initial sense of who and what you are." So make sure you don't need that second chance to make a first impression.
While you don't want to be phony or fake, you do want to look and act the part. "Statistics show that how we appear speaks more about us, and is more important, than what we say verbally," she says. So dress for who you want to be. Also, don't sell yourself short on the date. Instead, sell yourself with good attitude, image and behavior.
As hard-nosed as this may sound, dating is a numbers game. If you want to be successful in dating, know that you won't hit it out of the park every time. You may need to step up to the plate a few times.
Be confident. It's the number one quality both men and women seek in a date or a mate, she says.
'Nuff said.

There is a little hope among our nation's farmers and ranchers. Actually, nothing much has changed in Washington. I speak specifically of a new farm bill, and immigration reform. To be sure, legislative committee chairmen, and agricultural organization public relations people and the chief executives they work for are all joined in the chorus of hooray, that welcomes Senate approval of a new farm bill, and of a proposed immigration reform. We can stay with that hopeful note in acknowledging there'd be no immigration reform or a new farm bill, without Senate approval. But when one goes looking for Change, to go along with that Hope, we first must realize that even with the aforementioned Senate approval, we still do not have, either a new farm bill or immigration reform, which is so important to agriculture, particularly in states like Michigan where so much of agriculture production is in the orchards, vineyards, and gardens.
It just could be that Hope and Change do not easily mesh - - they just don't go together. One can Hope, without anybody's permission - - without any help. Change, is a little different. Whereas Hope is largely emotional and spiritual, Change is perhaps more complex, and certainly is not something that happens, especially in these matters, without a lot of help-and, if not permission, at least acquiescence.
So, as I think about it, there may indeed be Hope among our federal legislators, upon whom we depend to bring about this Change. Now we're at the point where we still have some Hope, but the certainty of Change is anything but certain.
Immigration reform indeed did pass in the full Senate. But it needs approval in the House, and the President's signature. If, eventually, the House does come up with an Immigration reform bill, it would almost certain have to go to conference committee for reconciliation with the Senate version. In other words, what goes to the President is something on which the House and Senate are in agreement. Does anybody anywhere see that happening, anytime soon? The last I heard, the Senate version emphasizes a path to citizenship for eleven or twelve milllion folks who are here illegally. Border security is in there, but . . . . Over in the House, the word is, don't talk to us about those citizenship issues until the border is secure. There's a change for which there doesn't seem to be much hope.
As for the new farm bill, no change there, at least not the jingling kind. The Senate version, which passed last session and was redone and passed this session, did not find favor in the House. The major sticking point - - - Food Stamps. That's a huge part of the legislation, and the Senate version cut a lot of money out of it. The folks in the House are saying, That's fine, but it doesn't go far enough. Either issue, Immigration Reform or Farm Bill, needs more than Hope to bring about Change.

I am so sick of hearing about this little, insignificant piss ant Justin bIeber. Today's kids have no idea what talent is. He looks like a cute little ten year old with absolutely no sex appeal. When he tries to be sexy it is comical. He should stay home with momma til he grows up.

Darwin Day Celebration is a Highlight Event for Philadelphia's YEAR OF EVOLUTION
14 JANUARY 2009, PHILADELPHIA, PA— Charles Robert Darwin, the world-renowned author of On the Origin of Species—and the originator of the modern theory of evolution—has his 200th birthday in February, and the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology celebrates it in style, with the third annual free Darwin Day and Evolution Teach In Sunday, 15 February 2009 from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.
The free afternoon program features short "teach in" talks in galleries by renowned experts, curator-led tours of Penn Museum's National Science Foundation-funded evolution exhibition Surviving, The Body of Evidence, and a physical anthropologist's "touchables" corner with casts of hominid skulls and other bones. An "Origins" scavenger hunt, a family program on dinosaurs, a game of Evolutionary Twister, an orchid display, and the opportunity to play some badminton, reputedly a favorite pastime of the evolutionary thinker, are also part of the afternoon. Darwin himself (or a reasonable likeness) promises to make an appearance to enjoy the festivities—and partake of the free birthday cake!

Penn Museum Explores Daily Life During Politically Tumultuous Times
A world-renowned collection of ancient Maya painted pottery, excavated by the University of Pennsylvania Museum nearly a century ago and reinterpreted in light of recent research in the field, provides the centerpiece for Painted Metaphors: Pottery and Politics of the Ancient Maya, a new exhibition opening at the Penn Museum 05 April 2009. Painted Metaphors runs through 31 January 2010, before beginning a multi-city national tour.
Like so many pieces of the famous Chama pottery that conservators meticulously put back together at the Penn Museum, Painted Metaphors yields new clues to understanding everyday life—and changing politics—of the ancient Maya of Guatemala 1,300 years ago.

04 JANUARY 2002, PHILADELPHIA, PA—Discovery of grisly evidence of strangulation and decapitation, and bizarre arrangements of human and animal bones, has solved the longstanding mystery about the Celtic presence at Gordion, Turkey, where the University of Pennsyvlania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology has been excavating since 1950. The chronologically rich site, long renowned as the capital of Phrygia in the 8th century B.C. and the center from which the famed King Midas once ruled, is about 60 miles southwest of Ankara in central Turkey.

Anthropologist Peggy Reeves Sanday Seeks to Redefine the Meaning of Matriarchy In Women at the Center, New Book Detailing Her Research among the Minangkabau
01 MAY 2002, PHILADELPHIA, PA—For the last century, historians, anthropologists and other scholars have searched both human history and the continents to find a matriarchy-a society where the power was in the hands of women, not men. Most have concluded that a genuine matriarchy does not exist, perhaps may never have existed.
Anthropologist Peggy Reeves Sanday disagrees. After years of research among the Minangkabau people of West Sumatra, Indonesia, she has accepted that group's own self-labeling, as a "matriarchate," or matriarchy. The problem, she asserts, lies in Western cultural notions of what a matriarchy "should" look like-patriarchy's female-twin.

First Example Ever Found of These Special-Use Bricks, Known from Ancient Texts to be Used in Childbirth
01 JULY 2002, PHILADELPHIA, PA—University of Pennsylvania Museum archaeologists have discovered a 3700-year-old "magical" birth brick inside the palatial residence of a Middle Kingdom mayor's house just outside Abydos, in southern Egypt. The colorfully decorated mud birth brick-the first ever found-is one of a pair that would have been used to support a woman's feet while squatting during actual childbirth.

Symposium Offered in Celebration of "Worlds Intertwined: Etruscans, Greeks, and Romans," Permanent New Suite of Classical World Galleries
28 FEBRUARY 2003, PHILADELPHIA, PA—The Etruscan civilization, the preeminent culture of central Italy from 800-100 BC, has attracted a renaissance of interest among scholars and the public in recent years. From the Etruscan alphabet and the language, to the furnishings, architecture, fashion and city planning initiatives, these inventive pre-Roman people have left an enduring legacy. They shocked Greeks and Romans with the freedom of their women, their technological prowess, and their control of the sea—and then gradually lost it all to Rome's military campaigns. Yet, with little in the way of actual Etruscan texts preserved, the cultural artifacts that remain—strange, beautiful, sometimes seductive or frightening—pose challenges to archaeologists and historians eager to tease out a better understanding of the Etruscan contributions to the Roman culture that eventually subsumed them.

Find Provides New Insight into Widespread Trade, Cultural Exchange in Region
03 JUNE 2003, PHILADELPHIA, PA—Excavating at the ancient town of Gilund in southern Rajasthan, India, one of the largest sites of the little-known Ahar-Banas culture, archaeologists led by teams from the University of Pennsylvania Museum and Deccan College, Pune, India have discovered a bin filled with more than 100 seal impressions dating to 2100-1700 B.C. The existence of the seals, and their particular styles, offer surprising new evidence for the apparent complexity of this non-literate, late and post-Indus Civilization-era culture, according to Dr. Gregory Possehl, UPM curator and excavation co-director.

Dig at Abydos Yields Important Discoveries About Egypt's First Dynasty
25 MARCH 2004, PHILADELPHIA, PA—The practice of sacrificial burials at First Dynasty (ca. 2950-2775 BC) royal tombs and enclosures has been suggested by Egyptologists since the late 19th century but never proved. However, archeologists working in the desert sands of Abydos, Egypt - more than eight miles from the river Nile - have uncovered strong evidence to suggest that the custom did exist. Moreover, recent excavations have also discovered two new mortuary enclosures - and the royal owner of one has been positively identified.

01 JANUARY 2005, PHILADELPHIA, PA—Chemical analyses of ancient organics absorbed, and preserved, in pottery jars from the Neolithic village of Jiahu, in Henan province, Northern China, have revealed that a mixed fermented beverage of rice, honey, and fruit was being produced as early as 9,000 years ago, approximately the same time that barley beer and grape wine were beginning to be made in the Middle East.
In addition, liquids more than 3,000 years old, remarkably preserved inside tightly lidded bronze vessels, were chemically analyzed. These vessels from the capital city of Anyang and an elite burial in the Yellow River Basin, dating to the Shang and Western Zhou Dynasties (ca. 1250-1000 B.C.), contained specialized rice and millet "wines." The beverages had been flavored with herbs, flowers, and/or tree resins, and are similar to herbal wines described in the Shang dynasty oracle inscriptions.

From WENN.com
The California native portrayed Dr. Mark Greene in the U.S. medical drama until 2002, when he decided to make a change and relocate to New York with his wife Jeanine and their four children.
He tells the Associated Press, ""I didn't really have a plan other than I knew I wasn't going to jump into a series again and I knew that I was really tired and burnt out.""
Edwards ultimately bought a plane and jetted off on a family vacation through Africa, India, and Asia, and he admits it was one of the best experiences of his life - because he got to spend quality time with his son Bailey, and three daughters, Esme, Wallis and Poppy.
He explains, ""I've never met the older man who wishes he had spent less time with his kids while they were young. You don't meet anybody who says, 'God, I wish I had worked harder and was gone more.'""

So I am having dinner with a good freind next week in Long Beach (Jenise gets one guess who it is...) and I am toying around with several ideas.
One thought is Savennieres, and I have a bottle of that I picked out already, but my other thought is Chablis. I only have 2002s, so that's my quandry. Are any of the wines I have even worth drinking now. I don't know because all I know about Chablis is that I was drinking one at the moment the Red Sox won the series in 2004. (That's me blubbering into my Chablis...)
So here's the options (all 2002s): Fevre Grenouilles, Fevre Bougros Cote de Blah-blah-blah (can't spell it), Fevre Montmains, Brocard Clos, and 2 Vergets, Montee de Tonerre and Vaillons Vieilles Vignes des Minots.
Thoughts? Anyone?

Dr. Weiss is doing fewer workshops lately so if you get a chance to see him, definitely do it. When you attend a Dr. Brian Weiss workshop, you'll know why he is called "the world's foremost expert in past-life regression".
Professionals and non-professionals alike flock to his lectures. He is a graduate of Columbia University and Yale Medical School and Chairman Emeritus of Psychiatry at the Mount Sinai Medical Center in Miami, and Brian L. Weiss M.D. is respected in the highest levels of psychiatry.
As the best of both worlds – a science trained physician and metaphysical student, Dr. Weiss gives the latest science along with practical steps that anybody can follow. He will give you a strong understanding of the mechanisms as well as guiding you to experiencing your own past lives. He easily takes you through the steps to have your own powerful regression.
Ready to experience a past life?
Everybody has them – those issues you have that you just can't overcome -phobias and dislikes that seem fated. They don't seem go away, no matter how many techniques you've tried. Maybe the answer is simply remembering what caused it in the first place. You'll discover a whole new level of healing for your body, mind, heart, and relationships.
He also teaches his cutting-edge exercises which give you greater physical and emotional health and can take you to new spiritual heights.
