Authorities say that a hostage situation involving Gwinnett County firefighters ended with the suspect dead and a SWAT officer injured on Wednesday.Cpl. Edwin Ritter of the Gwinnett County Police Department said that the suspect was killed after the SWAT team entered into the home to end the four-hour hostage situation around 7:30 p.m.
Authorities identified the suspect as Lauren Brown on Thursday."It got to a point where we believed that their lives were in immediate danger and our SWAT team made the decision to go in there and neutralize the situation," said Ritter.Authorities did not say if the suspect died of a self-inflicted wound or if he was shot by officers.A Lawrenceville police officer apparently suffered a gunshot wound to his hand, Ritter said. He was listed good condition, according to Beth Okun, spokesperson at Gwinnett Medical Center.
The officer remains hospitalized at Gwinnett Medical Center on Wednesday.The four firefighters being held hostage suffered superficial injuries when a flashbang went off to distract the gunman, according to Ritter. Those firefighters were transported to Gwinnett Medical Center. According to Gwinnett Medical Center officials, the four firefighters have been treated and released.Police say that the incident began after firefighters responded to a home in the 2400 block of Walnut Grove Way in Suwanee after the suspect made a heart attack call around 3:40 p.m. "They arrived at the scene. They went in and began to do what they do every day when they were taken hostage," said Rutledge.Ritter said that the suspect was apparently suffering financial difficulties and was demanding to have his power and other utilities turned back on. The Associated Press reports that public records show that the home where the situation took place is in foreclosure and has been bank-owned since mid-November.There were originally five hostages, but one firefighter was let go to move the fire truck, according to Rutledge."In my 25 years in the fire service here in Gwinnett, I have not witnessed an incident like this, so it's a first for me, but we're thankful that they're OK and very thankful to our police department," Rutledge.The home where the incident took is near Collins Hill Park, Walnut Grove Elementary School and Collins Hill High School. Those schools are closed this week for spring break.

We don't know what's in that grass," said Brahiim Blair. "They could have bodies stacked on top of bodes in there."The weeds taller than a person are apparently getting an extra supply of water from a leak at a nearby vacant home.We contacted the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department. They told us a supervisor would be notified and that stopping the leak would be a top priority Monday morning.

David Yurman uses color fearlessly, combining gemstones in unconventional ways to create truly distinctive and captivating palettes. "Fashion has color moments," he says, "but the reality for me is it's not about trends. There are moments when you want something soft and muted, and moments when you want something deep and rich. I like the idea of mixing colors that you don't often see together, that might feel a bit odd, yet the result is refreshing."
Although a classic shape, the oval stands out from the rest. It is at once elegant, feminine, and modern. Like the egg, it is a symbol of abundance and new beginnings. Whether smooth cabochons or faceted in the exclusive DY way, Signature Oval gemstones intoxicate with vivid hues and sublime shine.

True Gospel Tabernacle Church in Detroit was robbed of its audio equipment for the second time in one week. This time the crooks cleared out the church's entire supply.
One suspect was also injured during the second break-in, leaving behind bloody fingerprints after possibly cutting himself on some broken glass.
The church was robbed the first time just earlier this week. $15,000 worth of audio equipment was taken. The thieves made off with soundboards, mixers, and a drum machine.
After the first break-in, police came to take statements and look around. But the church security guard, Daniel Baker, made the biggest discovery outside the back door – a trail of foot prints leading straight to a neighborhood home.
But Pastor Roderick Dallas shared his disappointment with Fox 2's Maurielle Lue earlier this week, when officers didn't even seem interested in checking out the trail.
In response, the Detroit Police issued a statement to Lue reading, "With no witnesses, the footprints do not give probable cause to search a home. This matter has been brought to our attention and will be thoroughly investigated."
Police did return to the church after the second break-in, and began following some of the foot prints.
In the meantime, the church's choir is still able to rehearse and prepare to release its first single. An audio production company in Royal Oak has offered its services to the church, free of charge, to help finish the recording.

New state legislation bans websites from charging money to get mugshots removed.More than hundred websites post mugshots taken right after an arrest before a person is even found guilty. Some people will pay just about anything to get those photos taken off the websites.Sophia Andrade was arrested on a domestic violence charge back in 2011. While that charge was thrown out, her mug shot is still online on numerous websites."I was under the impression that's it, your bad day is over -- only to find out my mugshot was all over the internet," Andrade said.Sophia found out that in order get the mugshot taken off, she would have to pay. The charge varies by hundreds of dollars from site to site."I'm not going to pay for something I didn't do," Andrade said.Georgia Rep. Roger Bruce (D-District 61) knew Sophia wasn't alone. He sponsored legislation to make it illegal for mugshot websites to charge people to remove their photos."Some of those sites, the same person may own four or five of them and if you pay him $500 each time -- that's a lot of money. It's just not right, it's extortion," Bruce said.Sophia says she was arrested in Florida, so the new law doesn't directly affect her. Her mugshot is still up, but now that this law has passed, she'd like to see it passed nationwide."I don't want to see people going through the same stuff that I went through," Bruce said. This law does not pertain to the printed mugshot publications, but Bruce says he's going after them next.

With this week marking the beginning of school in Webster Parish I am rerunning an article I published five years ago, on September 1, 2006. So as you read the article it will still refer to my mother as living and some people's job descriptions will have changed, but the events of 80 years ago are still the same.
August marked the opening of the Webster Parish schools. As Caddo Parish schools prepared for opening, my mother mentioned that she noticed that Fairfield Avenue Elementary School was now a magnet school.

Nature's Gift DMSO - Liquid Unfragranced - 8 oz.
DMSO has been used for over 100 years in the United States. It is a natural substance derived from wood pulp and is harmless when used with the proper precautions. It is sold as a solvent. DMSO is an amazing substance that has many uses throughout the world.DMSO may be helpful for relieving pain, inflammation, scleroderma, and interstitial cystitis however, intended use is as a solvent only and the choice of using it in other applications is the sole responsibility of the user.Dimethyl Sulfoxide is a clear liquid known for its ability to permeate living tissue. It is believed to help stimulate cellular processes. It has a distinctive and slightly unpleasant odor, but Dr. Morton Walker, in his book, DMSO: The New Healing Power, describes how it appears to help block pain, reduce inflammation, kill bacteria and funguses, reduce blood clotting, improve circulation, neutralize free radicals, stimulate the immune system, and hasten the healing of wounds.
The face and neck are more sensitive to topical DMSO than other parts of the body, and the maximum concentration of DMSO should therefore be reduced by diluting the concentrate with sterile or distilled water. If you develop a rash or redness, you may want to reconsider using this product.
CAUTION: May cause skin irritation. Avoid contact with eyes, skin, clothing. Wash thoroughly after handling. In case of eye contact, immediately flush eyes with water. Call a physician.
This product is intended for use as a solvent only. The choice of the process used in the various applications is the sole responsibility of the user. It is unlawful to represent in any way that this product is useful or safe to use for medical purposes.

When they first came out ,there were limited choices in the market place.Thats not the case anymore and if the dual filter design is superior ,why doesnt everyone else utilize that concept?

One thing though- perhaps I have a misunderstanding of what some posters are referring to when they talk about a wine having a green streak. I have always felt that when talking about cabernet franc that has bell pepper tones or other vegetal characters, that "green" was the right term to use. I have also used it in a negative connotation when describing a wine with unripe fruit tones.
I have seen the term green used with this wine and I don't get it. This is an easy drinking blend with good tannic structure and the right amount of fruit, but I sensed nothing more than a subtle herbal quality. What I mean is that this is a balanced wine, not with overripe fruit, but not what I would call green.
Anyway-bottom line- I am looking forward to the next bottle.

Hello Everyone!
I feel the need to vent here. I received a call from my OB's office the other day stating that she is leaving the practice as of Dec. 31. They were wanting me to see another OB in the practice. I voiced my frustrations to the lady who called stating that I already wait 1-3 hours to be seen, Plus, my BP has been high since week 8 and I am now 20 weeks. I then told her that I thought my care should be exclusively with a Peri, and I would talk to my DH and call her back.
Well, the next night I received a call from the OB that would be taking over my care. She asked "is there anything we can do or offer for you to stay with us". She opened up the can of worms, so I let her hear my 'concerns'. I told her of my history, my BP STILL not being under control at 20 weeks. She asked if I had done a 24 hour urine lately..NOPE. She said she needed to get one from me. I then told her that I felt that I should be seen by a Peri. Her comment "we will consult with one". Well, as if that is not enough, My OB was supposed to have someone call me for a Level 3 Ultrasound because I have Spina Bifida Occulta of my Sacrum, so we have to make sure the baby is ok, PLUS the meds that I am on and my BP readings, supposed to be checking the growth and amniotic fluid. Can I just say that I have called the office 4 times and left messages for this appt time. NO ONE has bothered to call me back!!! I can not stand having to talk to a machine EVERY time I call to get a nurse or make or change an appt. I have to wait for them to call me back, which is usually not happening! I have called several Perinatologist in our area...all of wich want a 'worksheet' from my OB stating why I need their care. I go to the new OB today, I am going to be the biggest nag she has heard in awhile!! LOL Plus, demand my ultrasound appt then...not a phone call later!
I think I am being hormonal, I dont know. I have felt the baby move pretty much last week, but the last few days I have only felt about a kick a day. I have not worried much because I know that our lil peanut is still small....should I worry about that this early?? (Sheesh, this is my fourth and MOST stressful!!) I am doing better with the pregnancy now...gearing up for this little one. Now more apprehensive with the care that I am receiving. Anyone have any advice for me??????
**Yes, my OB is the one that stated she did not want to put me on more BP meds because that will 'limit her options in the third trimester". Is it just me or shouldnt she just want to get me there in the first place?!?! My BP's have been 150/97 ish in the office...140/92 ish at home since I can remember. I am on Labetalol 200mg 3 times a day. Have not done the baby asprin, because they dont
"recommend it", I am taking extra vitamins due to my potassium being low......
Sorry for venting this morning! I had to have an ear other than DH's because I know he is just as frustrated! Thanks for listening!

Strange Tropical Fruit Burns Average 17 Pounds of Belly Fat in Clinical Study. Exclusive Offer Available Online.
|NOTE: Pure Garcinia Cambogia has sold out in most major stores in . As of it's still Available Online.
Pure Garcinia Cambogia is being proclaimed as the "Holy Grail" weight loss supplement.
Garcinia Cambogia Extract is
the latest buzz in the battle of the bulge. Since recently being
studied on a popular doctor television show, millions of people are praising this so
called Holy Grail weight loss pill. Surprisingly, many people who
struggle daily with their weight have yet to hear about this powerful
Furthermore, health stores across the U.S. have been barraged from customers seeking Pure Garcinia Cambogia, so good luck trying to find it in stores especially now approaching the silly season! Many U.S. health-food retailers like GNC have been on backorder since December 2012, since the television study. However, a few online retailers, who stocked up on Garcinia Cambogia before the craze hit, still have supplies of Pure Garcinia Cambogia available to customers.
But it's not just celebrity TV talk show hosts claiming the fat loss effects of Garcinia Cambogia, there is real clinical data to back up these claims.
Garcinia Cambogia & Rapid Weight Loss
Let's get right to the point: The most recent studies published show a significant weight loss (up to 25%) on people who used Garcinia Cambogia Extract as a supplement (without diet and exercise). Another study showed using this product showed a rapid weight loss like no other supplement has ever done.
This pumpkin shaped fruit has scientists saying, it's a revolutionary
fat buster! Finally, a way to do nothing and lose weight. No more
dieting and no more exercise, is the simplest solution to rapid weight
loss! By blocking fat from being created and suppressing appetite,
Garcinia Cambogia Extract is the fastest fat buster!
America's Hottest New Way To A Flat Belly
So, let's dig into Garcinia Cambogia, starting with the question, Why is Garcinia Cambogia the magic weight loss ingredient?
The most important ingredient in Pure Garcinia Cambogia Extract is HCA (Hydroxycitric Acid). This revolutionary fat buster works in two ways simultaneously; it suppresses appetite, and prevents fat from being made! Put the two together: suppressed appetite, and when you do eat, it blocks the fat from being made. Instant weight loss without any time wasted dieting and exercising! This is why Garcinia Cambogia is the latest buzz.
You may be wondering how is this possible, since all the other diet
pills have some sort of caffeine or upper which raises your heart rate
and therefor speeding up your metabolism. With Pure Garcinia Cambogia
Extract, you are intaking nothing but the magic ingredient HCA (Hydroxycitric Acid), the magic ingredient.
Garcinia Cambogia Weight Loss Clinical Studies
Dr. Julie Chen, a California internist with a fellowship and training in Integrative medicine she recommends Garcinia Cambogia for weight management, cholesterol, and issues associated with metabolic syndrome. What I love about this product is that it is one of the least expensive to use, and it's been shown in studies to increase weight loss two to three times the amount people would lose with diet and exercise.
Dr. Chen said Garcinia Cambogia suppresses appetite by increasing serotonin levels (which reduces emotional eating). It also helps manage stress hormone cortisol, which can lead to increased belly fat. She also says it helps prevent fat from being made and moves towards glycogen which is a energy source, which helps burn more fat.
She also noted that Garcinia Cambogia helps increase lean muscle mass
while cutting fat. While patients may not see different number on the
scale, she said dress size should decrease. Recent study found that
patients who took Garcinia Cambogia saw an increase in lean muscle mass
and a decrease in fat. That's important because muscle burns about
30-50 calories per day, and fat only 3-5, said Dr. Chen. If you're
getting more of the lean muscle mass and less fat, you are a fat burning
What To Expect With Pure Garcinia Cambogia
We're sure you've tried a lot of different weight loss products that all promise to do amazing things then don't deliver. That shouldn't be the case, so we're going to tell you what thousands of dieters are experiencing with Garcinia Cambogia Extract:
Using Pure Garcinia Cambogia
† Suggested Use: Take one capsule of Pure Garcinia Cambogia Extract about 30 minutes before meals. The best Garcinia Cambogia product recommended is Pure Garcinia Cambogia Extract because it is the only 100% pure
product on the market. It is recommended taking them two or three times per
day with a full glass of water for the best results. And remember that
combining Pure Garcinia Cambogia Extract with a healthy diet and exercise can improve
your results!

UDPATE (NOW LIVE!) Game has been patched according to user suggestions:
- Battles now run significantly faster.
- Block can only be used twice on your bar, but the cool down has been decreased.
- Paladin's Shield now has a much longer cool down.
- Rock Golems can no longer use Suppression. Health decreased, damage increased.
- Blade Shaman's heals now have a larger cool down, and he can no longer regen focus.
- All the audio is now in sync with the subtitles.
- You can now Re-Spec 5 times a day instead of once.

Epic 'Defrauded' Developers with Unreal Engine, Says Silicon KnightsSilicon Knights president and founder Denis Dyack commented on the legal struggle between the Too Human (360) and Unreal Engine purveyors Epic Games, expressing optimism that "justice will be done" in the ongoing court battle.
"The trial is proceeding," Dyack told Develop. "We feel really good about our claims, and we're hopeful that justice will be done. We all feel really strongly that they have defrauded us, and a major portion of the industry."
The dispute centers around Silicon Knights' claim that Epic held off on delivering promised features in its Unreal Engine 3 middleware in order to focus on its own UE3-powered effort, Gears of War (PC, 360).
The case went to trial following the denial of Epic's filing to dismiss the suit, and multiple licensees of the software have since been served with subpoenas in an effort to obtain evidence for the court battle.
"The Too Human you see today only really started development when [Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes (GCN)] was completed," Dyack explained. "So it's been a four-year development cycle and it would have been out even quicker, but we had to re-write the engine because of all the Epic stuff."
The first of a planned trilogy, the oft-delayed Too Human will finally reach retailers this coming Wednesday.

It never stops amazing me how people react when you say the word "Carbs" or, God forbid, you say the word "Fat."
I was eating a little homemade concoction today and one of the people at the station asked about what I was eating because it looked "different." I explained that it was my usual "Lunch Trio" and that it had all three elements to eating a healthy diet.
"Three elements" I was asked. I went on to explain to this person the three types of food needed to get and stay healthy are Proteins, Carbs and Non Saturated Fats.
"Carbs are bad for you," was the response I got. "Do you know what Carbs ARE?" I asked. So, lesson underway...here we go:
What are carbohydrates?
Your body uses carbohydrates (carbs) to make glucose which is the fuel that gives you energy and helps keep everything going. Your body can use glucose immediately or store it in your liver and muscles for when it is needed.You can find carbohydrates in the following:
- Vegetables
- Fruits
- Breads, cereals, and other grains
- Milk and milk products
- Foods containing added sugars (e.g., cakes, cookies, and sugar-sweetened beverages).
Healthier foods higher in carbohydrates include ones that
provide dietary fiber and whole grains as well as those without added
What about foods higher in carbohydrates such as sodas and
candies that also contain added sugars? Those are the ones that add
extra calories but not many nutrients to your diet.
Some diet books use "bad" carbs to talk about foods with refined
carbohydrates (i.e., meaning they're made from white flour and added
Examples include white bread, cakes, and cookies.
"Good" carbs is used to describe foods that have more
fiber and complex carbohydrates. Complex carbohydrates are carbohydrates
that take longer to break down into glucose; such as vegetables,
fruits, whole grains and beans.
"OK" my co-worker said, "I can see that; but isn't all Fat bad for you? The answer of course is a resounding NO!!
What counts as fat? Are some fats better than other fats? While fats are essential for normal body function, some fats are better for you than others. Trans fats, saturated fats and cholesterol are less healthy than polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats.
How much total dietary fat do I need?
The Dietary Guidelines for Americans 2010 recommend that Americans:
- Consume less than 10% of calories from saturated fats.
- Replace solid fats with oils when possible.
- Limit foods that contain synthetic sources of trans fatty acids (such as hydrogenated oils), and keep total trans fatty acid consumption as low as possible.
- Eat fewer than 300 mg of dietary cholesterol per day.
- Reduce intake of calories from solid fats.
Polyunsaturated fats can also be broken down into two types:
- Omega-6 polyunsaturated fats — these fats provide an essential fatty acid that our bodies need, but can't make.
- Omega-3 polyunsaturated fats — these fats also provide
an essential fatty acid that our bodies need. In addition, omega-3
fatty acids, particularly from fish sources, may have potential
health benefits.
So, when people say they're going "Carb Free" or "Fat Free" they are really taking away key and necessary elements of their diet. Add Proteins to the mix and you're on your way to eating much, much better,

Kwame Kilpatrick's conviction on public corruption charges seemed to grant the former mayor's wish that Detroit could move forward, but this drama will have a second act -- his sentencing.It's been five weeks since Kilpatrick and Bobby Ferguson waved good-bye on their way to Milan. No not cosmopolitan Milan, Italy, but rather Milan, Michigan, home of the Hack House museum, the magnificent Milan Dragway and, of course, their temporary digs at FCI Milan, also known as the Milan Federal Penitentiary.Kilpatrick and Ferguson asked to be released until their sentencing. Judge Nancy Edmunds responded the same way to each request -- denied.The most common questions I get asked these days are do you think Kilpatrick and Ferguson will appeal, how much time do you think they'll get, when will they be sentenced and do you want fries with that? For answers to some of those questions, we turned to my old pal Mike Rataj."We still have to file our Rule 29 and Rule 33 motions," he said. "Really it's a motion to dismiss the charges not withstanding the verdicts rendered by the jury, and a Rule 33 is a motion for a new trial."If the judge refuses to throw the verdicts out, the prosecutors will begin working on their sentencing recommendations, and then the lawyers will all be back at court fighting it out once again.Kilpatrick and Ferguson are facing up to 20 years in prison.During a press conference after the verdicts were read, U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade wouldn't say how many years prosecutors are seeking."We expect the sentence that we seek to be significant," she said.Prosecutors say they will study the sentences handed down in other recent public corruption cases, including former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, who got 14 years, and former Cuyahoga, Ohio County Commissioner Jimmy Dimora, who got 28 years.But first, we need a sentencing date."I'm anticipating sometime in August or September, and that's just a guess," Rataj said.Kilpatrick will be back in court before his sentencing. He and Ferguson will appear when their lawyers argue for a new trial.What are the chances that the judge will toss the jury's verdict?We've heard every side in this case speak very highly of the jury, and nobody held them in higher regard than the judge. I think it's very unlikely that she will negate all that hard work that they did.

Rift Trailer Promises "Polished at Launch" MMORPGThis new trailer for Trion Worlds' upcoming "complete" MMORPG Rift, which the developers promise will be "polished at launch" and "advance the genre the day it ships," is full of bold claims.
The trailer opens with some testimonials from members various guilds that have been playing the game talking about how awesome it is, which is followed up by some voiceover detailing what you can expect from Rift.
Time will tell if the game will be a hit, but it looks like it has a good foundation. If you're more curious, you can read my preview from when I saw a build back in October.

I confess my scrubs came in! I was so excited to see the package in front of the door!!
I confess one of the teachers at school today had to call CPS for one of our students. I want to cry right now. I am not someone who cries easily. Still haven't cried about my uncle, to be honest.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Im glad I did... because I really like it now that its here!!! plus I needed one that went with black pants, as the one pair of scrubs I already have goes with brown.. and I didn't want to wear the same pants everyday, or the same color, and have people think I was wearing the same pants! lol
I confess that Mia peed on the potty for the first time tonight.
Sarah, hooray for Mia peeing on the potty! I can't get Lore to PT to save my life.
Ashley, great choice!
I confess I filed our taxes today after nearly chewing my lip off. I really need to get more organized when it comes to the past taxes, printing, etc. I nearly couldn't find some of the info that I needed.
I can't wait for our return. It's not as much as we had hoped, but we have some fun plans for it.
I like hearing all the potty training successes. Yah for Mia, congrats to Josh!
It really took dedication on our part to do the potty training at the beginning, and even by the second day of setting the timer every 15 minutes, we were wondering if they were ever going to catch on. The third day of non-stop pt-ing, it was like they suddenly realized what we were after.
Claire is really, really good now (and she started out not being as good). She goes by herself, doesn't need reminders. Ro started out better but now needs to be reminded to take a potty break every half hour or so, and if we forget to remind him there is usually an accident.
Lydia, thanks for bringing the timer back up. I've heard of doing it that way before, so I'll definitely have to give it another go.
Argh. All of this potty training talk is making me squirm. Kai is so totally uninterested. He also pees so much that he wets a diaper like every 10-30 minutes. His nighttime diapers are totally soaking wet, even if I change him right before I go to bed. I'm quite sure he could not master the bladder control. He also wakes up almost every night asking for water and chugs a whole glass. I don't know why he's so thirsty. And why he pees so much. And he's so small. I feel like something is off but his pedi thinks I'm nuts.
My HMO is about to change so I'll be switching pedis and plan to revisit the whole issue.
Bridget, Ro was peeing every 15-20 minutes, and soaks overnight diapers. When I first started pt-ing, setting the timer every 30, and then every 20minutes was not enough. Weird, because Claire can go for hours without peeing.
Anyway, now that he's much more aware of it, he's starting to hold it. He never pees in the car, or when we're in a store for errands. He can hold it for an hour now, but we tend to get more accidents if we don't remind him about every 30 minutes.
The other thing is every once in a while my kids have wanted water in the middle of the night, and can drink 8 oz apiece right before bed and halfway through the night. After one night of getting water, they ask for it every night. I finally realized it was more of a habit than a need, especially since they started incorporating every other thing into their routine (Can I go snuggle with you in the big bed? I want a snack! I want some milk! etc.). I finally couldn't face these middle-of-the-night 30 minute routines any longer, and told them to wait until morning. A few nights of reminding them to wait, and they don't wake up and ask for stuff anymore.
Of course, I'm one to talk about drinking in the middle of the night. I drink 32 oz of water between when I go to bed at night and when I wake up in the morning. And I pay for it with 4-8 bathroom trips.
Still, it's worth it to check a sugar level on a frequent drinker/pee-er. I snuck a little urine sample in to my last OB visit and ran a strip on it while I was using the bathroom myself. And I did an earlier one at 12 months because of the frequent peeing. Ro is small, too.
I basically just wanted to give you encouragement that you can train a frequent pee-er, and actually it helps a little bit because there is a higher frequency of association. When you pee and sit on the potty 20 times in a day, there is a faster connection than just peeing 5 times in a day and sitting on the potty.
I don't think I have ever written pee so much in one sitting! Now I have to go.
I confess that my kids really want some farm animal legos, ever since we got this farm book from the library where all the pictures are made with legos. So I took a look on craigslist and found an ad for someone with a big bin of legos for sale. It said "make me an offer." I offered $20 with a disclaimer that I really had no idea what price range she had in mind.
She just emailed me back she was looking for around $300.
Who knew?
I confess I just asked DH to give me a hug. I didn't realize he'd just given a plate of shrimp to the cat and had shrimp all over his fingers. So he showed me his shrimpy hands, grabbed me as I tried to get away, hugged, ran his fingers through my hair, then went and washed his hands. I'd just finished saying I needed to take a shower but was cold and didn't want to change so I was going to wait until tomorrow morning. Argh! I REALLY don't want to go wash my hair right now!
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
$300 for some ****ing Legos!?! Are they gold plated?

ELO's Jeff Lynne Didn't Want To Reinvent Covers For New Album
Saturday, September 29, 2012
ELO leader Jeff Lynne says that his new covers collection was meant to pay tribute to his favorite songs -- not reinvent them. Coming on October 9th will be Long Wave -- Lynne's first new set since ELO's 2001 album, Zoom. Long Wave features such pop and rock standards as the Everly Brothers' "So Sad (To Watch Good Love Go Bad)," Don Covay & The Goodtimers' "Mercy, Mercy," Roy Orbison's "Running Scared," Etta James' "At Last," the Four Aces' "Love Is A Many Splendored Thing," Chuck Berry's "Let It Rock," and Bobby Darin's "Beyond The Sea," among others.
Lynne told us that although he added his musical fingerprint to the songs , he was careful to remain true to the songwriters' intent: "I would never, ever change anybody's melody -- ever. I hate that when people change the tune and just go off on a little tangent for a while. We all know what the tune should be and it shouldn't be messed with -- I don't think -- when it's a great song. And I don't think the notes should be changed and that's why I stuck to doing them exactly as I knew them. And I wanted to do them with the respect that they deserved, because I think they're beautiful old tunes and the chords are fabulous in them. And the great thing is all the words are marvelous, too -- which is pretty rare in the world, where you get everything that's good about a song is great."

On the Water: SPOT Satellite GPS Messenger
By Capt. John N. Raguso
If you're boating or near water, see how SPOT should be one of your tools of the trade. Download the PDF here of the complete article.
The Great Divide Mountain Bike Route is described as the "battle royale" that "braves mountain passes and windswept valleys of the Continental Divide from hinterlands of the Canadian Rockies to badlands of the Mexican Plateau." With one single mammoth stage of 2,745 miles, this race is as huge as the West. Starting in Banff, Alberta, Canada and finishing in Antelope Wells, New Mexico, this self-supported mountain bike race took off on June 10 and the participants are well on their way to New Mexico. Tour Divide holds some major credibility because there are no prizes: just passionate riders with blood, sweat and tears. Check it out as the clock runs non-stop!
To follow it live click here. The website also has some great history and photography.

GPS Tools can keep you safe on summer outings
By Kim Komando of CyberSpeak
Kim Komando, a respected tech blogger, included SPOT in her editorial about different GPS devices that can help keep you safe this summer during your next adventure. Check it out at here.
Here's a cool organization, Offroad Passport, that integrated SPOT units in their off-road website by using SPOTadventures.com accounts that allow everyone in their club to follow their adventures. Anyone can set up a SPOT Adventures Account. Get creative with how you use SPOT Adventures. See how Offroad Passport did it here!
Dale, a retired community college administrator and instructor, is an avid hiker, backpacker and cyclist. At the age of 67, he now spends most of his free time hiking through the backcountry of Oregon and California alone and with fellow backpackers.
Like many hikers, Dale often worried about connectivity during his travels. This is why SPOT peaked his interest when reading one of his favorite magazines. Soon after, Dale visited REI to purchase his first SPOT device. In celebration of Memorial Day, Dale and 7 other hikers ranging from ages 51 to 74 decided to take a five day trip to Mattole Beach Campground near Petrolia, California. This time, he made sure to add his new SPOT Gen 3™ as a "must bring" item.

Oh, you watch Dexter too! I think he is kind of hot. I used to think Quinn was hot, but I don't think he was always that skinny! I am so sad it's ending this year.
We keep a couple steel rods by our bed.
I've played out some scenarios in my head. If we were all upstairs and heard someone come in, I envision DH going downstairs with a steel rod and I would take the phone and lock myself with Josh in his room.
If someone came in any of the doors downstairs we have 2 other doors we could head out of. I could throw some Legos in the intruder's path, but that wouldn't really help unless the intruder were barefoot.
Shemar Moore is almost...too pretty? I prefer guys who look attainable. LOL
