Travel with me
I did this with some friends the other night after dinner. Its another one of my little exercises and I hope you will want to journey with me. Its like permission to daydream.
We create a group picture through meditation and breathing. I dont want to say much more because, if, as it did at dinner, this can be a wonderful experience and quite a lesson.
Ill start by setting a foundation for the location.
Then anyone that wants to participate in the experience can share what they see.
Begin by breathing deeply through your nose.
Hold the breath for 9 seconds.
Exhale through your mouth.
Repeat this two more times.
(One for Spirit, one for mind, one for body.)
Allow the tension to leave your body.
Your shoulders relax.
The scene:
A tropical forest.
I can smell the decay of vegetation.
It smells sweet.
I see a waterfall in the distance.
I hear birds.
I feel at home.
Close your eyes.
Continue breathing deeply.
What do you see, hear, taste, smell, feel physically and emotionally?
Add your comments. (Dont quote this original post - just let things flow)
Love & Light,
Shirley & Terry & Buddy Bub & Trixie Harmony
crunching sounds.......
sauna -like
there is the waterfall
the splashing and gurgling relaxes me
I sit on a rock
feet dangling in the water
the sun feels exquisite on my back and shoulders
I have seen this spot
a long time ago
it is very cocooning
My eyes are closed
But I can see where I am
who else is here?
OH it is you!
OM! Shanti! Peace!
I have come upon the edge of the clearing. The earth is moist and spongy under my feet and insects are buzzing around me. As I step out of the deep shade of the trees into the open I hear the water splashing.
Birds lift swiftly to the high branches and a small creature scurries into the vegetation. I hear the plops of several frogs into the pond.
The air is cooler here and mists are rising from the splashing water at the base of the fall.
I walk to the edge of the pool and splash the cool water on my face and arms.
The birds call in the trees, watching me cautiously.
I find a fallen log at the edge of the water and sit. Cool, damp. Feeling the waters cooling evaporation on my skin.
My eyes close and I breath in the fresher air of the clearing. Ionized. The sun through the canopy of the branches is casting dappled shawdows on everything.
My eyes close and I breathe deeply for a moment. My lungs enjoy the fresher cooler air here. And then..............silence.
Just Joyfully Participating

I didn't move from my original spot. There was an ever so slight cool breeze and somehow the air smelled fresher.
Keep these exercises coming, Shirley!
In the jungle, the mighty jungle...
Walking up to the edge of the water, I see Dreamer sitting there and smile at her, greeting her with a telepathic hug but no words, so as not to intrude upon the sacred silence. I sense the others scattered around and telepathically greet them, too.
Lush, tangled vines decorated with huge fragrant blooms cling lovingly to various surfaces, lending their perfume to add to the magic of this place. Somewhere in the overgrowth a group of monkeys chatter to each other. I look up to see if I can see them, and sitting on a branch overhead is a huge golden eagle, quietly watching me. The eagle looks me in the eye, then lifts its wings and flies away, leaving me breathless and in awe of his majesty.
I'm drawn to the waterfall. The rocks behind the rushing water gleam golden in the lazy sunlight that filters through the dense vegetation. I can feel the spray on my face as I step closer. Suddenly I'm compelled to dive into the cool, clear water. I take a deep breath and push downward, behind the waterfall into an opening that somehow I knew was there, beneath and behind the rock face. The water grabs and pulls me through, but I am not afraid.
Just when I think my lungs are about to burst, I come up into a chamber, a cave filled with glistening quartz crystals of every imaginable hue. The waves of energy the stones emit should be staggering, but somehow are not.
At the edge of the pool on this side of the falls a set of stone steps lead out of the water and to an opening in the cave. Following along as if in a dream, I emerge from the shadowed cave into a clearing. There in front of me rise the stone steps of a temple, reaching upward to the cerulean sky. On either side of the steps sit sentinels: a pair of intricately carved, deeply green jade jaguars. I want to touch them, to feel the sleek power beneath their green skins, but I'm a bit intimidated by their power.
I take a step forward, and put one foot on the bottom step, pausing to look up at the top of the temple, trembling with excitement and anticipation...
Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
Khalil Gibran
I tried
I followed your instructions. This is what I experienced.
I began to relax with each breath.
I pictured the waterfall. I heard the birds and waterfall. I wasn't sure of the smell.
An image of a South American Indian in native garb, carrying an arrow and bow pointed at me, kept coming up. He wouldn't stop following me and threatening me.
I gravitate towards the waterfall.
My Jack Russell interrupts me. Animals have this weird sense of seeking me out when I am meditating. I don't know why.
I try again. I am in waist deep water, walking my way towards the waterfall. I am forcing the image of the Indian with the arrow out of my mind.
I am under the waterfall. I feel cleansed. A lot of sad emotions being washed away. Images of South American Indians, women and children, looking at me with curiosity keeping coming up. I couldn't fully concentrate with these uncontrolled images popping up. My mind is not as disciplined as I thought. I will try again another time.
Zen Jr., at your service.
Spawn of Zen. Emphasis on Junior... cause I don't wanna be a Senior Member. I ain't worthy. I don't know nothin 'bout nothin.
I see....
I see a path that leads me towards the waterfall. I hear chanting...There is a way to go behind the waterall into a cave where Monks are reciting Mantras. I take off my shoes, bow to the Buddha statue and sit with them and Pray.
Know Thyself and You Will Know The Universe
Okay...I can't wait any longer...
I look up the steps of the temple. It is pyramid-shaped in the Meso-American style and would be at home in Chichen Itza or Tenochtitlan, and I can't imagine how such a grand site has escaped being found long ago. Yet there are no crowds of tourists anywhere nearby, no sign of recent human trespass at all.
I begin to climb the stone stairs, past the jaguar sentinels, slowly making my way upward. Looking up, I notice the air shimmering about midway up the steps, like heat shimmering against the achingly blue sky.
The higher I go, the harder it is to move. My feet feel as if they are encased in concrete, my arms feel like lead weights. The thought occurs to me that it feels like g-forces, but my rational mind dismisses that as absurd.
I come almost to a standstill, hating the thought of turning back, but unable to continue struggling against such extreme pressure. Then with my next step, I break free of the force and nearly fall from straining against something that is no longer there. I look behind me, down the pyramid, but see nothing.
As quickly as I can, I begin to climb again. At first I think the pounding sounds I hear come from my heart, beating heavily with exertion, but with every step forward I take, the sound grows louder until I can clearly hear the rhythm being played on what must be huge drums.
Just as I make it to the top of the temple, a masculine figure appears above me, draped in what can only be jaguar skins, wearing a necklace of teeth and claws. His skin is the color of red jasper, his hair like jet. He looks quite intimidating, but I feel no fear as I join him atop the ziggurat.
He does not speak and does not seem surprised to see me. I follow him to the other side of the temple and gasp as I look down on hundreds of other natives in similar garb. I look around in confusion, not remembering having read about such a demonstration. Suddenly I realize that as far as I can see, there are no signs of modern civilization. There are no tourists wandering around. The buildings in front of me are not ruins, they look whole and vital and alive. Swinging around to look behind me, I do not see the dense overgrowth of jungle from which I just came...there are plants and trees, but not the same ones through which I had emerged only a short while before...I wonder wildly where everyone else is...and where I am!
Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing.
And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb.
And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
Khalil Gibran
I see the waterfall as azure blue cascading in a shimmering brilliance. The waterfall begins to change in color, and it now becomes a deep purple hue with a white glow surrounding the main flow of water. Behind the waterfall lies a cave dwelling, a haven, a place of peace and comfort, designed by me and for me to retreat to for rejuvenation. The cave is covered in soft moss. I lay down upon the moss. The moss smells sweet, feels soft and lush, it is green, plush and alive. There are crystals of varying sizes and shapes in the corners of the cave. They are beacons for those who are fusing energies from another plane of existence. In the cave, I am in complete serenity and safety, mind, body and spirit. As I lay upon the moss a bear appears, he is golden with a blue hue that vibrates beyond the initial golden appearance. Suddenly it becomes apparent that the tropical region I am in is not one of this earth, I am on another plane of existence, perhaps another planet, I am unsure. I feel safe and at home, however, I cannot name where I am. It doesn't feel necessary to name it. I stand and leave the cave that lies behind the waterfall and am drawn to the "sky" above me. A large bird, one that I have known for many lives flies close to me and circles with an energy that is familiar, very ancient, very consoling. He is eagle like, but larger, and the shape of the body is not that of the eagle. He is wise, he is a guide, he is more than bird. He "speaks" through his flight. The scents that fill the air around me are those of fragrant and exotic flowers, musk, and wet leather. The soft tan leather has been moistened to form to my feet so that the trail I am now walking toward will be easier to tread, as it is a steep uphill climb. I walk the path with ease. There is a beautiful bright green lizard upon the rock to my right. He has eyes that shine in love. I reach the top of a mountain which now appears in the form of amethyst formations. Ancient guides await in a circle, a fire is lit and they gather in sacred ritual of a reunion of souls, a reuniting of energies that have bonded over many lifetimes, galaxies, universes. I sit now in the circle, I feel peace, I smell the smoke of the fire, the burning of the yarrow, the slight scent of mint in the air. This is where I will remain until the process is complete. This is where I will sleep tonight.
It is warm and though the air is humid it is not oppressive and caresses my skin like soft velvet. My noise is filled with pungent ordours of ferns, mosses and musky earthy smell of decaying wood.
Though it is day I am in shadow. The crown coverage above lets little light in. Vines and mosses abound on the tree trunks. Looking over I see the remenants of a once large tree. It's wood has become squishy and fibrous, mosses have dressed it's decaying body and life abounds. A young sapling arises from it's shell bringing life full circle.
I walk quietly to the sound of water as birds call overhead making a cacophany of sound. I look up, up and up and see a flash of brilliant colour but within seconds it it gone being swallowed by the vegetation overhead. Life is teeming above whereas there is a gentle stillness below.
Beams of light struggle to break through the canopy and where they reach the ground an area of vegetation exists. Flowers bright and colourful trumpet their existance and bees lazily drink in their nectar.
I reach the stream, gurgling and cascading down rocks the water dances along. The rocks are spongy and slippery and I find a spot that gives my barefeet better footing. I find a flat rock and sit down. As I gaze across the pool below the waterfall yellow eyes silently stare back. Eyes lock, penetrating and mysterious. Spellbound we hold each others spirits. Slowly, with an elegance filled with athletic grace and beauty, the black panther slips away. Before she becomes a memory she looks back then fades away into the shadows. All that remains is a whispering echo in the soul.
The smells, the sounds, the sites, I am one with them and they are one with me. Life is beauty, life is love, life is.
Love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And well change the world - Jack Layton

Bitter temperatures have kept the kids away from O'Hair Park on Detroit's west side, but in the summer months the place is packed.
"The kids come over here and use the park every day. I see them play in the park every day," said Jimmy D.
The park has seen better days. Some of the play equipment is broken and some areas have become a dumping ground, but neighbors try to keep it up and now they're worried what will happen when it closes.
"If you look at it, how vast it is, could you imagine four, five feet high grass? They could throw bodies in there," Jimmy D said.
Mayor Dave Bing announced Friday O'Hair Park along with 50 others will be closing in the springtime. The decision comes following Detroit City Council members' failure to approve a deal allowing the State of Michigan to lease Belle Isle.
"It's not retaliation. This is all fact based," Bing explained.
The mayor says the decision to close the parks is not a political squabble but reality. Now he has to find a way to cut $6 million from the budget.
"We looked a gift horse in the mouth," Bing remarked. "We had a deal that was workable, that was doable, that would not have closed parks. Why we didn't act on that I don't know."
Now it's folks like Curtis Mack and his dog, Squeak, that will have to live with the politicians' decision. He lives across the street from Milan Park. It's a gem that will soon be off limits.
"I don't think it's going to be a good idea because this is the only park around in this area," Mack said.
At one time, the city had about 300 parks. That's being cut to around 68. Meanwhile, 38 parks that aren't closing will still be put on a limited maintenance schedule. That means they're not going to get mowed all that often.
Chandler Park is also on the closing list, but the aquatic center is actually run by Wayne County and so that will remain open to the public.
One other side note, this will impact some of the recreation centers. There had been plans to extend hours at six facilities, but that will not happen now. The city says there is no money to hire additional personnel.

Baby Life Quilt
hey there, Vanessa from V and Co. here.
i've had this quilt bouncing around in my head for quite some time. so when i saw the "make life" line by sweetwater, i instantly knew that this quilt needed to be made out of this line.
it seems like everywhere i turn someone is announcing that they are pregnant or that they just found out what they are having. with just one layer cake i was able to make two completely different color scheme quilts, and i still have some left that i'm working with (another tutorial in the works with the leftovers!)
shall we get started?
1 make life layer cake.
for each quilt:
1 1/4 yards of background fabric (shown are:5424 20 Apple and 5424 24 Earth )
1 1/2 yards fabric for back (used but now shown: 5421 25 Ocean, and 5421 22 Apple
1/2 yard of fabric for binding (5424 19 Ocean and 5424 11 Apple)
pattern for words (get pdf here)
heat and bond
cut your background fabric to measure 38 by 36 inches.
you will need to print out the letters pdf file. and gather up a few squares you would like to use as your letters. i chose to use the solid color squares but you can use whichever you would like.
next i traced onto my heat and bond the letters that i needed.
cut out your letters but leaving a little paper around each letter. (it makes for cutting the letter out easier i think)
iron onto the wrong side of your fabric. (make sure you utilize your fabric and try to use as little fabric as possible by starting in the corner.)
cut out your letters.
(with paper still on the back) see where you would like to place your words. make sure they are straight by using a ruler.
i measured 3 1/2 inches from the bottom and left side of my fabric as the place where i wanted my last word to be.
i then placed my words up from there.
take off the paper from the back and when you have the placement of where you want the letters, iron them down onto your fabric.
**to secure your letters either zig zag or blanket stitch around your letters. when i do this i like to use clear thread.
(i didn't on these quilts knowing that these were just going to be "for show" quilts)
i then took the rest of my squares. i picked out the ones i wanted to be in my border.
cut out strips with widths of 1 1/2 inches. i did make them different lengths because i wanted a scrappy look.
i then sewed my strips together so they measured 1 1/2 by 38 inches.
and then sewed them to the left and right of my main panel.
the top and bottom scrappy border should measure 1 1/2 by 38
next you are going to cut out two strips of your remaining background fabric to 2 by 40 inches.
this will be your left and right outer border.
your top and bottom border will measure 2 by 41 inches
sew them on to the top and bottom.
your finished quilt top will measure 40 by 41 inches.
when you are ready to bind your quilt, i have a binding tutorial on my blog: check it out here
two quilts with the capability of making a few more...or wait and see what i do with the rest of it. tutorial coming soon to my blog.
now your baby, or your friend's baby can have a totally cute mod baby quilt and the color combos are endless with this line!
thanks! and can't wait to show you what i do with the rest of scraps!
tutorial and pictures brought to you by V and Co.

Love this concept.
Quick question .... Do you sew down the letters at all before quilting?
If so, what method do you use?
If not, how do you stop the letters from becoming all raggy after the first wash?
Andi :-)

to answer your guys question about the letters. you can blanket stitch or zig zag your edges. i don't like the look of it sometimes so i use clear thread. not this time though because i knew these would be just "show off" quilts! ;)

I just love it! How about finishing the letters with a strait stitch just in from the edge so it'll give a frayed look after washing...?
Awesome looking quiltie!

I love this quilt. Now I have to make one like it :) For the quilting of it- did you use a machine (embroidry type) or did you sew it by hand/machine to finish it off? It is kind of hard to see in the picture how you did it.

Are the letters in the pdf hand drawn or did you use a font? If you used a font, what point size is it? I want to put different words on a similar quilt and I really like these letters.

This quilt is so adorable. I just finished piecing mine together and as I was doing it I kept thinking the same thing as well, 'eat, play,poop, sleep, repeat' :) didn't do that though:)
for those of you did this, how did you quilt yours? machine or by hand? i'm at that stage in my quilt and I have no idea what to do. any suggestions would be nice:)

I began making this quilt three days ago, but an unfortunate scissor incident with the letters left me with a nearly-amputated fingertip (which has been thankfully reattached by someone with superior skills using a needle and a thread). But I'm back and determined to finish this quilt. It's that worth it!

Very clever quilt. #1 question - did you use batting? I see other people have asked that and I don't see the answer.
Grandchild#6 is on the way...so might have to give it a try.
- June 21, 2011 at 4:55 PM
- foodmathquilts said...
Love it! I couldn't get this pattern out of my head, and I made one back in February for a colleague.
I couldn't get the google doc of the pdf to print either, but if you click "printer friendly version" the letter template is on the last page.
Of course I can't find the first printout, so I'm printing again and looking forward to whipping up a second quick, fun, and cute quilt.

On my god, I love this pattern. All my friends are having babies and having just had on of my own I don't have time to make fancy custom quilts anymore. This one is simple yet awesome and I can customize it. Thank you so much.

- Ellen Taylor said...
Beautiful, will be fast and quite an easier idea than I usually find myself getting involved in...like here I go again....Do you think by using smaller letters that it would look okay to put baby's name on it, and birthday? Pleeeeeaase help me out. Or do you think it would take away from the whole cuteness of the quilt?

I think some of the leaking problems people have are due to incorrect prep and washing so if you follow the directions and use the correct soap you shouldn't have a problem. When she is big enough for the mediums, I will buy them again. We have never had a problem with diaper rash. As you can tell, I'm happy with these and although the washing and stuffing the diapers is a little more work, we make it happen. We will soon be using cloth wipes because it won't be anymore work for us and better for our little girl!

Inguinal Hernia
An inguinal hernia occurs when a small portion of the bowel bulges out through the inguinal canal—a passage or opening through the muscles of the abdominal wall—into the groin. The bulge usually contains tissue lining the inside of the abdomen as well as fatty tissue from inside the abdomen or a loop of intestine.
There are two types of inguinal hernias:
Symptoms of an inguinal hernia may come on gradually or suddenly and may include a bulge in the groin or scrotum and discomfort, pain, or a feeling of heaviness. Other symptoms may develop if tissue in the hernia becomes trapped (incarcerated) or if the blood supply to the trapped tissue is cut off (strangulated).
An inguinal hernia may require surgery. In some cases, hernias that are small and painless may never need to be repaired.

Coffee: Snapshot of Ecuador
This month we are taking a glance at the coffee producing country of Ecuador.
Ecuador, located in South America, is a small country that is roughly the equivalent size of the state of Nevada. (Ecuador Unplugged) This relatively small country has a very diverse climate which allows coffee to be grown all over the country including the Galapagos Islands. In Ecuador, all coffee varieties are grown including washed Arabica, natural Arabica and Robusta. According to Roast Magazine, the average production for coffee in Ecuador is about 650,000 bags of coffee with Arabica accounting for about 60 percent of coffee production, followed by Robusta beans at 40 percent.
In general, coffees from Ecuador are described as "thin to medium body coffee with sharp acidity." (About.com)
If you would like to learn more about Ecuador visit educador.travel
Some fun facts about the country of Ecuador for your reading pleasure-
- "The official currency of Ecuador is the US dollar." (CIA Website )
- " Ecuador is the largest exporter of bananas." (National Geographic)

It is a true honor to share each morning with the amazing people of Detroit. I have lived and worked in many communities around the country, but Motown is hands down my favorite.
After graduating from college, I packed my bags and moved to Colorado to work as an anchor/reporter for a small television station on the Western Slope. I can remember looking in my rearview mirror as I drove away from my home in metro Detroit thinking someday I will be back working for FOX 2 News.
I was born and raised in Muncie, Ind. I attended Indiana University for three years before transferring to Oakland University where I graduated cum laude with a BA in Journalism.
I also graduated from Specs Howard School of Broadcast Arts in Southfield. While in school, I worked as a weekend sports anchor at WSYM in Lansing. I also had the pleasure of interning with the Detroit Lions.
After that, I moved to Montrose, Colorado where I made the switch from sports to news at KREY/KREX. The next stop, "then" UPN affiliate KLBC TV2 in Laughlin, Nev.
Two and a half years later it was off to San Luis Obispo, Calif. where I worked as a reporter/anchor for KSBY 6.
Several years later, I started feeling the "pull" of the Midwest and realized it was time to make my way back home. I took a job at WNEM TV5 in the Flint/Saginaw market. I started as a weekend anchor/ reporter and worked my way up to morning/noon anchor and co-host for the lifestyle show "Better Mid-Michigan".
In September 2011, my career came full circle when an opportunity opened up at FOX 2. Now, I have the privilege of empowering our viewers as soon as they wake up from the anchor desk. Then I head out on the street to meet them in person and tell their stories.
I pride myself on being a trustworthy, respectful member of the media and the voice of people who deserve to be heard.
Some fun facts:
-While in California, I had small part in the 2007 Lindsey Lohan thriller "I Know Who Killed Me." I played a persistent reporter hounding the local sheriff for a story. Talk about art imitating life!
-I am a huge fan of the band Phish and have been to over 60 Phish "shows".
-During my time in Nevada, I graduated from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department Citizen's Academy.
-I'm a sports junkie. My favorites are football, MMA and golf.
- I'm a major "foodie" but can barely scramble an egg!
-I married my middle school Sadie Hawkins date after reconnecting with him on Facebook 18 years later. Our daughter, Grace, was born in 2010.
I would love to hear from you! Send your thoughts or story ideas to firstname.lastname@example.com .

At approximately noon on Saturday, members of the Rossford Police Department and the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force arrested Adolphus Hollingsworth on charges he murdered his estranged wife in 1997.
Hollingsworth, 45, of Chattanooga, TN, was arrested at the Knight's Inn Motel in Rossford and is currently in the Wood County Jail awaiting extradition to Tennessee.
Police say Hollingsworth, who has a violent criminal history, murdered his wife, Victoria, after she put the couple's two young children to bed. When the children woke up the next morning, their mother was nowhere to be found. Police suspected foul play but were unable to determine if she was murdered or simply missing. Finally, more than a year later, her body was found and marks on it indicated she had been stabbed to death.
Police investigated the case but there were few leads, which eventually let the case go cold. Producers from the TNT television program, Cold Justice, heard of the case and profiled Victoria Hollingsworth's murder. After the program aired, local police developed enough information to issue an arrest warrant for Hollingsworth, who was determined to be living in Amarillo, TX at the time.
Hollingsworth was arrested in Texas Friday on charges of first-degree murder. However, jail officials mistakenly released him.
Then, information was developed that Hollingsworth was staying at the Knight's Inn Motel with people he knew. Rossford Police and the NOVFTF identified Hollingsworth's car in the parking lot. Since officers didn't know what room Hollingsworth was in, they waited for more than an hour for him to enter his car. Once Hollingsworth was in the car, officers moved in and arrested him without incident.
Since the time of her murder, Victoria Hollingsworth's mother has passed away, but her father and two children were informed of the arrest.
"You can run but you can't hide," said Pete Elliott, U.S. Marshal for the Northern District of Ohio. "Even after 16 long years, the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force, along with the continued collaboration with local law enforcement, will find you."
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of a known fugitive is encouraged to contact the U.S. Marshals Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force at 1-866-4-WANTED or text keyword "WANTED" and the tip to TIP411. Tipsters may remain anonymous and a cash reward may be available.

Congratulations! You're the proud (and nervous) parent of the world's most beautiful baby! Giving your baby love and nurturing comes so naturally to you. So does showing him off to your family, friends, and even perfect strangers! But when it comes to feeding, you may feel a little unsure of what to do. Here are some guidelines.
What Foods Are Best?
Breast milk is the only food recommended for the first six months of life. If you cannot breastfeed or express milk, your infant should be fed iron-fortified formula. A bottle-fed baby should drink every 2-3 hours at first.
How Much Breast Milk or Formula Should I Give?
A newborn baby that is breastfed may feed every two hours even overnight. As your baby grows feed whenever the baby shows signs of hunger.
In the first few weeks, infants should be awoken to feed if four hours have passed since the beginning of the last feeding. Your baby will eventually develop a more regular feeding schedule, which may occur about eight times a day. Your infant may need more breastmilk during certain times like a growth spurt. Follow your baby's hunger signals to know when to provide breastmilk.
Newborns that are formula fed may drink 1-½ to 3 ounces every 2-3 hours. The amount per feeding will increase as your baby grows. For example, by two months, your baby may drink 4-5 ounces every 3-4 hours.
Growth Spurts
Growth spurts will make your baby hungrier. Increase breastmilk or formula as indicated by your baby's needs. Growth spurts may occur around the ages of:
- 7-14 days
- 3-6 weeks
- 4 months
Important Tips
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, breastmilk and formula are adequate nutrition alone in the first six months. Water and juice are unnecessary during this time.
Solid food is not recommended until your baby demonstrates that he/she is ready for solid foods, often around 6 months of age. Your baby may be ready for solid foods if you baby:
- Holds neck steady
- Can sit
- Opens mouth when food is offered
- Keeps food in mouth and swallows it instead of pushing out with their tongue
- Reaches for food, showing he/she wants some
- Has doubled birth weight (weighs at least 13 pounds)
Breast milk or iron-fortified formula is best.
What Are My Choices?
- It is easy to digest.
- It contains disease-fighting compounds.
- It is less likely to cause allergies.
- It helps mother and baby develop a special closeness.
- It helps baby's jaw develop.
- It is always ready to go and cheaper than buying formula.
- It has been found to help reduce infant obesity , respiratory infections, such as pneumonia, and diarrhea .
- It provides adequate nutrition and is a suitable substitute when breast milk is not available.
- It helps to prevent anemia (low iron in the blood).
- It does not contain enough iron to prevent anemia.
- It is not a treatment for constipation .
What Can I Expect?
- Breastfeeding is a supply and demand way to feed. The more often the baby nurses, the more milk your breasts will produce.
- A newborn breast-fed baby will nurse an average of 8-12 times in 24 hours.
- Your baby may need a vitamin D supplement starting in the first few days after birth. Premature babies may need an iron supplement.
- A breast-fed baby will nurse an average of 20-30 minutes. The length of time will decrease as the baby gets older.
- During growth spurts, your baby may need to breastfeed more often. This does not mean your milk supply has decreased.
- A breast-fed baby should have 6-8 wet diapers in 24 hours.
- A breast-fed baby may have a bowel movement once per day or once with each feeding. Each baby will have their own schedule. During times of growth, your baby may go several days to a week without having a bowel movement. This is not constipation if the stool is soft.
- Breast milk should not be heated in the microwave, because it destroys nutrients and can cause hot spots that may burn your baby.
- Everything must be kept clean. Wash the top of the formula container before opening. Wash bottles and nipples in hot, sudsy water. Rinse well with hot water.
- Mix formula carefully, following the directions on the label.
- Use one can of formula before opening another. An opened can of ready-made liquid formula is safe for up to 48 hours when tightly covered and refrigerated.
- Formula prepared for feeding should be refrigerated and used within 24 hours.
- Formula should not be heated in the microwave because it can cause hot spots that may burn your baby.
- Formula should not be frozen.
- If not able to keep formula cold, use powdered formula and mix when needed.
- Your baby should have 6-8 wet diapers in 24 hours.
- Formula-fed babies will develop their own pattern of soiled diapers. Watch for your baby's pattern.
- During growth spurts, your baby may need to eat more often.
- If your baby is not eating enough vitamin D fortified formula, he may need a supplement.
Tips on Bottles and Storage
Bisphenol A (BPA) is a chemical found in a many products, including plastic containers or bottles (with recycling number 7), as well as canned goods. While BPA's effects in humans is still being studied, some experts recommend that you limit your baby's exposure to this chemical.

Our favorite fright fest, American Horror Story, has more twists and turns than a game of cat's cradle in a wind storm. But it's still made of slightly predictable tropes, some cribbed from traditional genre fare and some all of it's own. Here's an accounting of what happened in last night's episode based on the scariest thing of all: math. The spoiler-phobic should beware.
Excellent Choices Casting Ian McShane as Killer Santa: 1
Bad Boston Accents: 5 (Opening Santa, kid's mom, ""Star Market"" joke, Suzy's accent wasn't Bostonian but it was awful, Suzy's dad, Frank )

Dead Bodies: 6 (Opening Santa, Suzy's parents, Grace, Frank, Santa)
Times a Person Was Spanked/Slapped/Hit: 10 (Sister Jude by all her canes, Frank and Santa, Dr. Threadson, Sister Jude)

Cigarettes Smoked: 1
Loaves of Bread Kneaded: 0
Sister Jude's Freakouts: 3 (Slitting Sister Mary Eunice throat, being hauled out, Rudolph)

Successful Escape Attempts: 0
Sex Acts: 0 (attempted rape doesn't count)

If you're wondering how messed up Kwame Kilpatrick's life is, this next sentence pretty much says it all: Kwame Kilpatrick could learn a lot from Charlie Sheen.
My report this week exposing a $2,000 wire transfer that the former mayor failed to report to his parole agent -- an omission that could send him back to prison -- put ?Kilpatrick's "woe is me" routine back on the main stage.
When I asked him if he was worried about going back to prison, he responded: "I'm Kwame Kilpatrick and this is Michigan and Detroit and the rules are different for me. So it's definitely something that I want to make sure that we stay on the right side, which we are."
Let's forget for a moment that voters from Michigan, and Detroit specifically, have supported Kilpatrick, his mother, his father, and, through city and county contracts and contractors and the family's bogus charity and non-profits, his wife, his sister, his half-sister, his step-mother and her son for more than 30 years.
Instead, let's focus on three things:
First, of the many lies Kilpatrick has told us, "I'm sorry" is the biggest.
(If he is sorry, it's not for what he did. He's sorry his actions have subjected him to consequences.)
Second, he does not feel that the rules that apply to the rest of us are applicable to him.
(In fact, he doesn't even feel bound by the rules crafted SPECIFICALLY for him by judges and state corrections officials.)
Third, he IS treated differently.
(And instead of complaining, he should be thanking his lucky stars.) All of this brings to mind Charlie Sheen who, like Kilpatrick, was once the toast of his town. As the star of the long-running, top-rated television comedy "Two and a Half Men," Sheen was raking in the dough and feted wherever he went. Even his personal foibles -- trouble with women and substances -- were, if not exactly celebrated, at least tolerated.
He parlayed his reputation as a lascivious, lovable scoundrel into a contract that paid him millions per episode. It could have gone on indefinitely, if not for his hubris.
As Kilpatrick has said of himself, his character was no match for his talent.
Sheen overplayed his hand by openly feuding with his show's creator and anyone who raised an eyebrow at his drug use and hedonistic living arrangement with a nanny and a porn star -- whom he referred to as "the Goddesses."
In interviews that have become infamous, he mocked anyone who suggested he was on the road to destruction, saying they would fade away while he would "be over here winning."
After his ouster from his show, he embarked on a series of live appearances that I'm noting here not because they were successful, but because they were more successful than the sporadic speaking engagements and book signings that Kilpatrick embarked on after his release from prison.
The difference here is that, as he finally felt the gravitational pull of the death spiral, Sheen tried to clean up his life.
I wouldn't be so naive to suggest he's reformed, but he has a much lower-key persona and a new show. I don't catch every tidbit out of Hollywood, but I haven't heard of him thumbing his nose at the people who made him rich or mentioning "winning" in quite some time.
Again, I'm not so naive to suggest that Kilpatrick should, let alone will, adopt a more humble persona.
Facing racketeering and public corruption charges based, in part, on the fact that he accepted tens of thousands of dollars worth of suits, he comes to court dressed to the nines on a daily basis. His only concession to casual Friday is the black velvet blazer he has worn several times.
But it's well past high time that Kilpatrick recognize that the different rules that apply to him come with privileges the rest of us can only dream of.
Even though Kilpatrick was forced to resign as mayor in disgrace, local business impresarios Peter Karmanos, Roger Penske, Dan Gilbert and Jim Nicholson "loaned" him $240,000. Ambassador Bridge owner, derelict building owner extraordinaire and trucking magnate Manuel "Matty" Moroun gave Kilpatrick's wife, Carlita, $50,000.
Since abandoning Detroit, Kilpatrick's wife and sons have lived in two homes outside Dallas, both of which were bigger and grander than the city-owned Manoogian Mansion, where they lived rent-free from 2003 to his resignation in late 2008. No one outside the family and, presumably, their landlords know who is paying the rent.
After serving 99 days of the four-month jail sentence he accepted to end the criminal case stemming from the text message scandal, Kilpatrick landed a job with a Compuware subsidiary to sell computer software. The gig came with a sizable advance against future earnings, a guaranteed $120,000-a-year salary and a chance to earn hundreds of thousands more in commissions -- even though his only previous sales experience was selling Detroiters a bill of goods.
The approximately $1 million in expenses generated by the legal dream team that defended Kilpatrick against felony perjury and obstruction of justice charges stemming from the text message scandal was covered by depleting his campaign fund. Unfortunately for Detroiters, who the former mayor owed $1 million in restitution, no one in authority tried to seize that loot before Kilpatrick spent it.
Living large but claiming poverty, Kilpatrick landed a court-appointed legal team that is one of the best in Detroit.
Until my friends Mike Wilkinson and Robert Snell at the Detroit News exposed the deal, Kilpatrick was staying for free at the upscale Atheneum Hotel in Greektown.
Finally, until corrections officials imposed a virtual house arrest Thursday for Kilpatrick's failure to report the $2,000 he got from a Chicago pastor, he shuttled between Detroit and Dallas on Buddy Passes that provided him deeply discounted travel on Delta airlines.
So, yes, Kwame Kilpatrick is treated differently -- and he should hit his knees every night thanking God for that.

Well, considering that this group is like a herd of cats, I don't expect this idea to succeed.
BUT. The first dish I made from the Bouchon cookbook was Salmon Rillettes. And then last week, on my wife's birthday, we went to Bouchon in Yountville. We mentioned that it was her birthday and got free glasses of Champagne. So on the spur of the moment I ordered the salmon rillettes.
What we got was not similar to what I had made at home. It was IDENTICAL to what is printed in the cookbook, it was totally the same. Like duck rilletes or deviled ham, this is a meat spread which can be used on toast.
The toast OF COURSE was Keller toast, very crisp and crunchy. But unlike my Keller toast, which is normally about six inches long, this was more perpendicular, maybe 2 inches long.
The reason I am thinking that this might be an interesting dish for EVERYONE here to make is, that 1) it is fairly easy and 2) it is totally delicious. And after ordering it for my wife's birthday, I am now making it for our best friend's birthday this weekend.
If you don't own the Bouchon cookbook (frankly if you are here, i think you should. The recipes are not that hard and all of them seem to be delicious) here are links:

no French, can't spell "deux"

This one seems good but a little weird
http://www.shaggybevo.com/board/showthr ... -w-pics%29
I am marinating the fresh salmon overnight with Absinthe (don't have any "Absynthe") and salt and white pepper.
That's too long but I'm down with it. More licorice, better flavor.
Whaddaya think?

ATLANTA (RNN) - Louisville cranked up the defensive intensity late in the second half to knock off Wichita State 72-68 and earn its way into the NCAA men's basketball final.
"That was a great team we beat," Cardinals coach Rick Pitino said. "I watched 10 or 12 films; when you watch [Wichita opponents] Ohio State, LaSalle and all these teams down 20, and they can't score against this team - I knew it going in.
"I kept telling our guys, 'Look guys, this is a dog fight tonight.'"
The Shockers built as much as a 12-point lead in the first of Saturday's two Final Four contests. The No. 9 seed appeared more physical for most of the game, finding their way to the basket and getting to the free throw line on a regular basis.
Louisville, the top overall seed, started its second half comeback with a pair of 3-pointers by Tim Henderson in less than a minute. And after not turning the ball over once for 13 minutes of the second half, the Shockers gave it up five times as the Cardinals' full-court pressure defense began to wear them down.
"Louisville gets credit for that," Shockers coach Gregg Marshall said. "In the course of a 40-minute game against some of the best pressure you're going to see every time the ball is inbounded, we had 11 turnovers so that's not bad."
Russ Smith finished with 21 points on 6 of 17 shooting for Louisville, and Luke Hancock added 20. Overall, the team shot 45 percent from the floor, including 9 for 25 from behind the 3-point line.
The Cardinals' Chane Behanan finished with 10 points and nine rebounds, including a tip-in with three minutes remaining to break the tie and give his team the game's final lead change.
With six seconds left, the Shockers got the ball off a rebound and trailing 71-68. But Hancock tied up Wichita's Ron Baker for a jump ball, giving his team possession and control of the game.
Wichita's Cleanthony Early had one of his best games of the season, going for 24 points on 8 of 14 shooting and 10 rebounds.
"It hurts to have to lose and it be the end of your season," Early said. "But these guys fought till the end. We had a great season. We have to keep our heads high and know the grind doesn't stop; we're always invested in getting better."
Pitino also spoke after the game about possible opponents in Monday's national final.
"We don't have to prepare too much if we play [Big East rival] Syracuse," he said. "Certainly, we have a lot of preparation if we play Michigan. We know Syracuse really well. One of the key things when you're a pressing team is that you stretch, get a nice walk-through but don't use up your legs."

BURLINGTON, Wis. (WSAU) - People are out of work, in some cases their cars are encased in ice and now fire investigators are having a hard time investigating the cause of last week's fire at Echo Lake Foods in Burlington.
Almost everything is covered with ice up to an inch thick from the spray of millions of gallons of water used to control the flames. Fire crews were on the scene for nearly two days. Now, the ice covering left behind is hindering the effort to find out what started what was one of the largest fires in Racine County history.
The participation of the Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigation doesn't necessarily mean the fire is considered suspicious. Officials on the scene say it could be weeks or even months before the source of the fire is determined.
