Haha cool! What did you guys get?
What do the monthly fees run on those things? I really want a smartphone.
Rich & I got the Android Nexus, Bobbie got an Optimus, Sydney got the Rumor Touch...and I can't remember what Jesi chose but it opens up and the two screens line up so you get a larger square to watch tv/movies on. Fancy smancy.
I have no clue how much one would cost by itself. Sprint has the best 'everything' deal of all the large carriers and their data plans are truly not capped.
Chrissy, how did you get out of your contract with Verizon?
Hi all! I was gone all weekend, but not with Bridget's dbf. Promise
We went campground camping at a KOA with a group of 100 other parents and children in our local parents of multiples group. I had never been to a KOA before in my life. It's pretty much not like camping at all, except for the campfire and the sleeping in the tent part and the being cold at night and not having my coffeemaker automatically turn on for me at 4 am.
There was a swimming pool and a bounce pillow (kind of like a gigantic bounce house without walls) and a petting zoo and a playground and an arcade and a climbing wall and a store. It was a paradise for a pair of 4-year-olds, and even baby DS had a blast and he learned how to say "goat" and "donkey" and practiced petting and yelling those words a lot. We had a group dinner on Saturday night. The fire pit was right outside our tent, and that's where the marshmallow roasting was and some of the singing.
The twins made tons of friends, from 13-month-old babies to 7-year-olds. It was hard keeping track of them. We kept finding them in other people's camps, but our big group had an entire meadow to ourselves, so it was a contained area. People kept coming up to me and telling me how wonderful DD was - how she was helping them carry stuff and she said things like "Look, this working together is TEAMWORK" and how she was being a good role model for their children. Last night all of the kids were playing red light green light in the open area while the adults were hanging out in front of our tent chatting, and it felt almost relaxing for about 5 minutes. And it was also cool sharing responsibilities with the other parents, like another dad and I would take about 8 kids total over to the bounce pillow and help maintain order and comfort minor injuries or hurt feelings.
Hmm, guess I just typed so fast I shared my entire weekend in one go. And I'm too lazy to rework it, so I'll copy it to my blog - you guys got it first, though.
The only issue over the weekend was that dh and I kept having communication issues and we kept getting testy with each other. The children were having a wonderful time, and things overall went really well, but there were just these moments of tenseness. Like I would take all the kids out by myself for an hour while he'd be back at camp, and then I'd return and hope to share some childcare, but he'd have stuff he would need to do first on his own that he didn't do while I was gone.
The other thing was, incidentally, we both realized that we see, 9 times out of 10, parents saying things like "If you don't stop that now, I will take that away from you" and then a few minutes later saying the same thing and then adding "I mean it" and then a few minutes later, saying the same empty threat with some other variation and then maybe eventually doing something about it. This is universal, at malls, at playgrounds, at restaurants, pretty much parents everywhere, not specifically for this group. I don't know if people tend to follow through less in public than they would in private, but we realized we rarely see parents or caregivers actually giving ultimatums and following through as they say they are going to the first time. We thought about it more this trip I think, because there were more annoying behaviors that impacted us directly and because we were there first-hand from start to finish.
Oh, I see. We want out of verizon.
I am glad Travis had such a good day! I have found the busier I keep the kids, the saner I am. We went bike riding, swimming and for a walk just today and they were awesome all day. Yesterday we went out to breakfast, to the farmer's market, grocery shopping, and on our evening walk. They rocked.
It's been so peaceful around here.
So this is strange. When we were kids my mom and dad had a couple that were like their best friends. The husband passed away of cancer about 15 years ago. The woman and my mom remained really close and of course my dad too. She would go on vacations with my parents all the time. Sometimes with a boyfriend, sometimes just her. She was with us when my mom took her last breath and was a huge support to all of us, prepared the food and house for visitors after the wake. I mean, she is like family to us.
Well since my mom has died, C has tried several time to contact my dad and have dinner with him, or whatever and I guess he doesn't call her back and so then she contacts me and wants to know how he is doing. I always let him know that she's asking about him and he always says he needs to call her. Well I just got an email from her saying some old friends are coming to town, some friends they all used to hang out with, and they want to see my dad. She says she has called and stopped over and cannot get ahold of him. She wants to surprise him on an evening, bring dinner, drinks, joy. So she wonders if i can tell her when he will be home and help her set it up. My dad does not want this. I don't know why. He has seen others of their mutual close friends, including female friends of my moms. Anyway, I called him and read him the email and he says he wants my brother and I there and he has to think about when. It's all just strange and I feel really bad for her too because she loved my mom dearly and I'm sure her wanting to spend time with my dad is totally genuine and it hurts her that he is avoiding her. I have emailed her and asked her to call me but I don't even know what I will say.
Bridget, that's so sad! It must still be so hard for your dad. My heart hurts for him.
Lydia, I love reading stories of your adventures. I agree that it seems people rarely follow through. That goes for teachers as well as parents.
I posted this elsewhere already, but realized all the action is in here and I'm emotionally messy enough to want feedback so I'm re-posting. Sorry.
I'm having a rough day today. Feeling out of sorts and kind of angry without even knowing why - I took a shower this afternoon and realized I forgot to wash my hair! Couldn't figure out why it was still greasy after I washed it. I'm also on day 33 of my cycle. I don't think I can be pg - we tried once this month and it didn't really work. DH hasn't been in the mood to try since. So I think I'm having major PMS but I'm not usually angry. Hate this.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Lydia. You'd not survive a weekend with him!
Your weekend sounds great! Wow, what a fun time that would be. I think I would have loved it. I'm sorry you and dh were having communication issues. I can certainly empathize with that struggle.
As for the follow through, dbf is horrid with is. And he will outright say, "I don't want to listen to him/her scream." Gah! It's beyond aggravating. I hear it everywhere too though. That and, "FIVE MORE MINUTES!", every 5 minutes, for about 20 minutes.
It makes me laugh inside.
L-your weekend sounds like heaven to me! (aside from the tensions with dh) I'm so sad we didn't get an opportunity to camp this year. KOA is my favorite!! Good for C for being such a role model. I bet that made you so proud!
As for not following through, I know I'm bad about this now with Conner and I never was with the girls. I'm not sure what my issue is but this was a good reminder that I have to do what I say when I say it...or else, what's the point?
Bridget-I'm sorry your dad seems to be having such a hard time seeing his good friend. It must be especially difficult to face her because she was so close with your mom. to all of you.
Mandy-I'm really sorry I didn't see your post before. Do you have any tea in the house that might help with your mood/feelings? Something calming? ((hugs)) I really hope it passes quickly.
Rich irritated me all weekend...but I didn't say a word. I've kinda given myself an out now I guess so whatever he says/does no longer matters. Again, I don't know if it's me just noticing things or if he's getting worse but he was terrible with the kids. One thing he did that I never heard before that grated on my nerves and hurt me was call Conner a baby repeatedly for crying. I'm so sick and tired of fighting though that I didn't even bother saying anything. What's the point?
Also-you know I've worried that he wouldn't do things in our house when he got here. Guess what he did this weekend? He spent most the entire day Saturday waxing his car. His 14 year old beater. He has lattice to put up on the porch and stain to put on it, as well as a couple leaky drains that he's been saying he'd get to. When? I'm not even going to ask because I know when...never. He'll live like this till he dies. He doesn't care. Let it all rot and fall apart. Who wants/needs a nice house?
Today he did even less. He helped my brother get his old truck motor together and they got that started. yay.
I really don't feel like I have any choice but to simply move out and end it. He knows how I feel. He knows my expectations. He knows I was uber-duber stressed and nearly WITCHY (with a B) about stuff being done at this house and it doesn't change one single thing. He absolutely doesn't care. I'm done.
Gwenn, I feel like that sometimes. Just like some wire gets crossed in my brain, some chemical signal is not getting through, not enough dopamine, whatever. I need a brain reboot to get back on track. Sometimes it's enough to just have my head cleared by sleeping and seeing how I feel the next day. Sometimes I take a more active approach by doing something peaceful that I enjoy, like painting or listening to music or going for a long drive in a scenic area, or incorporating something semi-luxurious and decadent that I don't normally do, like treating myself to a coffee and a pedicure. Obviously I can't do any of this now, but this is what I used to do. If it lasts longer than a few days, I deliberately try to think positively and often that helps as well. Only a few times in my life have I not been able to shake my slump and reboot my brain on my own. I definitely do feel very specific changes happen to my brain, though. It's almost like taking a drug, it's so dramatic. And awful. I hope you feel better.
Bridget, do you think your dad could have some specific weird feelings about this friend in particular that makes meeting with her difficult? Like maybe she will make him miss your mom more? Or maybe she made a pass at him or he thinks she is going to? Or maybe he never really liked her but he tolerated her for the group dynamics? Or something? If he is seeing other friends, it is pretty clear that it is something about this particular woman and it is not because he's becoming a reclusive shut-in that must be forcibly dragged out, so I'd probably gently ask him if he can see himself doing something with her in a group in the future, and if not, maybe he could either explain it to her or help you explain it to her so she doesn't keep trying. Not a good position for you to be in, definitely.
Chrissy, it sounds like you are in a miserable place right now. Maybe you should go through that list I threw out there for Gwenn, too, and take up the running more often (my idea of torture, but I think you like it). I don't like it when people call kids babies, either. I think it's demeaning, it's akin to name-calling (which we tell them is wrong), and it doesn't give them any tools to handle their emotions. DD will cry loudly and sometimes deliberately, and if it goes on for a while I will tell her it's very distracting and if she's going to keep it up could she go into another room because it's too loud. I also tell her that there are some good ways to calm down - she can take slow deep breaths, she can come get a hug and a kiss, she can think of things that make her happy, she can count to ten, she can try to sing a song, etc.
Chrissy. That made my heart hurt for Conner (and you). Dbf has said to Kai twice, "Why are you screaming like a girl?" I was LIVID. Why don't these men realize that they erode at their child's spirit when they say these mindless, hurtful things?
I hate that boys are expected to be so tough and not show emotion but then be expected to act appropriately in response to other people's feelings. What a confusing double standard for them.
This has been on my mind a lot and I just started reading a book called Real Boys that is on this very subject.
chrissy - is it cyclical w/ you and R? I mean, is there no way that this is just a down-cycle and the things will get good again for you too?
L - I do know what you mean about not following through. I was really impressed upon by that chapter in Nurture Shock about how kids learn how to lie. And I would think that seeing their parents make empty threats is a prime example of learning how to be untruthful - seeing their parents model the behavior. I'm sorry about you and your DH. And I'm glad I didn't swing by today, since you were probably still away. There was a 2 yr old girl's bday party at the Oakland MOCHA, and then I was killing a little time before we went to visit my friend who lost her baby girl last month. I drove right by your place and was tempted to knock, but thought I should at least give you some heads up.
Speaking of that friend, I'm obviously treating her very gingerly because she's very fragile right now, but I have to confess I'm a bit bothered at this one thing that's been ongoing for a long while. She and her hubby let her son carry around a stash of toy cars, that he waves around and loves to shows off. Then whenever Bodhi asks him to share, he pitches a fit. His parents only make these half-hearted attempts to convince him to share, but never insist. Steve & I, on the other hand, and the friends who playdate with us all do the same thing - if our kids won't share, we take away the thing they won't share. So anyway our playdates with this one little boy usually are spent with him tormenting Bodhi with his tantalizing bag of cars, with B repeatedly asking him, "Can I see that? Can I have that? I want that one. Let me see the blue one." And the kid shrieking "No! No! It's mine!" Bodhi, naturally, isn't perfectly behaved either when he doesn't get what he wants. Both kids usually end up very upset. I usually just try to explain to Bodhi how hard it is to share and that little T is still learning how to share. And I usually make a point of stressing in front of the mom that T will learn to share eventually. I've even said aloud to Bodhi, "You know what happens when you don't share. What does mommy do?" and Bodhi answers "You take it away."
So I'm wondering what the point would be in having another playdate with the little guy. I hang out socially with the mom without our kids, and actually prefer that time together. But I wonder if I could be any less subtle. I feel like maybe they're encouraging this behavior that I wouldn't want to promote in B. I do try to reason with myself that maybe they think of the stash of cars as T's "lovey" of sorts, and he's too attached to it. But then again, I've never seen a kid tease another kid with his blanket or teddy bear in a way that is as upsetting as the way T does it.
Bridget, I'm glad that M made it back from a debauchery-free weekend. That's really encouraging. And that's really terrific that they found your camera.
Speaking of weekends away, DH just got back from his. He's been doing remodeling work for his client/buddy who just bought a house up in Tahoe 4 hrs away. His buddy is a guy he's done studio projects for over the last 12 years, and the guy just really trusts my DH and pays him the same rate that he pays him in-studio to come up with him and do stuff like install new cabinets and lay floors. So it's good work, but this is the 2nd time now he's left me alone with Bodhi for basically 50+ hrs straight. I really shouldn't complain because B was actually a very good boy all of yesterday, and most of his bad mood this afternoon is on account of a too-short nap followed by an afternoon with his friend who won't share. But I can't help feeling bothered that DH started off saying he'd back last night. And then changed it to noon today. Then said he'd be back in time for dinner, and finally showing up a little before 9 pm after I'd completed my 3rd bedtime routine by myself in a row.
I can imagine how moms of more than one kid are groaning at how luxurious it sounds to be able to have have to put only one child to sleep, but it is hard. B is an insistent toddler who fidgets and falls when he brushes his teeth and won't lie down if he wants to play with his dinosaur cards, and wants to pretend he's swimming in his diaper, which also for some reason entails dragging the bedspread off his bed and turning the lights on and off in his room, so that it takes 30 minutes just to get him into his pajamas. So yeah by the end of 3 nights and 2 full days alone with him, I'm frazzled to say the least. It's a good thing that DH is bringing in more money, but... it just always seems like I'm shat upon in order for him to make some dough.
I mean, I stay home for 2 years to be with B and don't ask him for a cent, just use up my savings to do so. He quits his job at the studio he used to be the chief at, starts up his own business, and has a) no qualms about having me cover the gaps in his income so I pay 75% of our expenses, and b) no real plan or sense of urgency about stopping his reliance on my financially. I go off to work 5 days a week, while he "works" from home (billing 10-15 hrs in a 40 hr week) and B is put in childcare all week. He goes off and works 3 days and I end up using up my whole weekend to take care of B by myself. Urrrggh.
Gwenn, a little time has passed since you mentioned you were in a funk. How do you feel now? I'm so sorry you had the blues. If it's any consolation, I am pretty sure I have PMS too, which explains why I'm impatient with hubby tonight. I'm already in bed and it's 9:30.
Talk more to you ladies tomorrow.
Ash - that looks like a really pleasant spot for the kids. And mellow too. It's so nice when you find an activity that won't overstimulate them. Since we're sharing, this pool is where I took Bodhi yesterday: http://www.paloaltohistory.com/rinconada.html. It was a watery wonderland for little B.

I'll have a look at your link when i'm on the laptop, Myles! About what you mentioned in the previous post, we experience something like that too with my nephew. And i'm like you, if Travis doesn't share something, I take it away from him for a little bit. But my sil doesn't do that. She's really bad about enforcing things. And she never follows through with punishments for naughty behaviour. I feel like a hard a$$ compared to her and i'm sure my mil thinks i'm mean some times, but I feel like I have to be the one to shell out the discipline. Just the other day, the nephew was over and had brought his scooter. Even when he wasn't playing with it, if Travis got on it, he'd go nuts and demand that the scooter was his. He started punching Travis and Travis started hitting him back so I had to be the one to break them up. Instead of putting the scooter away or even disciplining her kid, the sil just sat there breast feeding her baby and let me deal with it. But I don't feel comfortable disciplining her son because I think he has some kind of issues. He seems like a really angry kid and is a little slow at things, so I feel like he gets away with stuff the other boys don't.
Sorry that turned in to a rant. I think I have resolved to just stick to my guns and when the nephews are here, i'll discipline them the same as Travis since I hate feeling like he takes the fall for all the naughtiness around here.

Myles, I'm know it's not easy to be on your own with a little one. Even 'just' one. It's exhausting.
Boo. It appears we have a little black cloud hanging over each of us. I hope it dissipates soon.
It actually bothers me when I am out in public and I hear/see people not being consistent with children. This happens constantly at school events oddly enough and it hurts my ears to hear, "one more time" and other constant inconsistencies. I am a stickler in public moreso than at home for some reason and I am always the mean mom at PTSA meeting when the big kids run all around and knock down little kids. Ky did it before after a warning and had to stand in the corner in the auditorium for 10 minutes so I got mean glares.
I also don't like situations like your friend's son Myles or your little nephew Ash. Elle has some little friends who don't like to share, but I know she doesn't like to share either and so I remind her how she doesn't like to share and that whatever the kid has is their's and that we have to respect people's property and feelings even if they have lots of toys that they are being stingy with. With the constant stingy kids I always make sure to have Elle bring a really nice toy too. I know it sounds mean, but the kid usually wants to play with whatever Elle brings and I tell them only if Elle wants to share (which she usually doesn't) just like with their toy and remind the child how they didn't let her play with whatever. If Elle doesn't want to share a toy, I get our visitor an even better, louder, shinier toy from the box and let them play with that, Elle will usually cut me one of her angry looks. DH says I am evil when I do this, but heh...I don't think so and more often than not both of the stingy toddlers end up sharing their favorite toys with each other. If there is constant screaming though, I will do like you ladies and take the toy. I will take all the toys, like DH said, I'm evil LOL! I will suggest a game to play without toys for a while.
I also agree with Chrissy about your dad Bridget. I do feel sorry for the friend. I hope she understands that it may just be his grief at seeing her.
Myles - I had that happen once at a playdate here. I asked the kid to share (in front of the mom) and she said no, but kept taunting JoJo with the toy until I said that they toy would be put away since she couldn't share. The kid started screeching and finally the mom stepped in and helped to get the toy put back in her bag so it wouldn't happen anymore. I think it it is your house you have the right to intervene with something like that.
Gwenn -
L - sounds like a mix of fun and annoying!
"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
I am going to be really annoying here and just say that it is actually developmentally appropriate for a toddler to not want to share. I mean, of course we want to encourage it but it really is a concept they are not ready for at that age. I know I am very, very much the minority on this one but I do not make kids share at that age and I would not punish for not sharing. I do have my ways though. Usually I will just say, "Let's put this somewhere safe since it's special to you", and then it gets put away and diffuses the confict but does not feel like a punishment. I do it in my home and in the daycare. I am far from perfect on this ideal of children having intrinsic motivation to do the right thing as opposed to avoiding punishment. The truth of the matter is that I have certain belongings that I don't want to share either. But that's a touchy subject because everyone want their child to learn to share.
Myles, bedtime was my biggest dread with dbf gone. And omg bedtime was agonizing with Kai when he was Bhodi's age. Finally by last night, night 3 we had it down and it went perfectly. Now dbf is coming home and I almost with I had a few more nights so that I could totally change the routine since the way I did it had Savana and Kai in a bed and Sawyer and me in a bed. This was much more comfortable for me than being squeezed in between Savana and Sawyer.
Bridget-we were like that with the girls too. If they had special toys they didn't want to share, I made them keep them put up. Conner doesn't get to be around other kids as much, and he doesn't have any siblings close to his age, so it hasn't been as big of an issue. He has two little friends and he's always been more than happy to share.
I did the opposite when I had kids all day.....if after a warning, things didn't change and I said that we wouldn't go swimming that afternoon....than we did NOT go swimming. Totally sucked because I really wanted to swim with the kids but I had to be able to have total control and trust them to listen when I said something, especially out in the pool. They pretty quickly learned that if I said something, I would definitely follow through and they didn't try to test it very often.
Dh and I both grew up with moms that if a threat was made, we both knew 100% that they would follow through.
Bridget, I'm with you on sharing. Nice thing to encourage of course but I never forced it either. I mean I would throw a major tantrum if someone insisted that I had to say share MY car or well any of a number of things of mine that I might not want to share.
We don't have many young kids around right now since the little cousins are in grade school....but we do have this problem with the dogs. Charlie will NOT share his toys with Cosmo. Most of the time she doesn't want his toys anyway but if he keeps shoving it in her face and mocking her with it, she will get testy. And sometimes we do take a toy away if they start being nasty about it since well a dog is kind of like a toddler and you can't really reason all that much with them yet. The one thing we did learn was to never give either dog a NEW toy....both got a new toy one xmas and omg did they freak out at each other....they just know it is a new one and suddenly the favorite. Or bones...can't give the one a rawhide if both are together or you will have a fight.

Historical and Revision Notes
legislative statements
Section 349(b)(2) of the House amendment adds a cross reference to section 553 to reflect the new right of recovery of setoffs created under that section. Corresponding changes are made throughout the House amendment.
senate report no. 95–989
Subsection (a) specifies that unless the court for cause orders otherwise, the dismissal of a case is without prejudice. The debtor is not barred from receiving a discharge in a later case of debts that were dischargeable in the case dismissed. Of course, this subsection refers only to pre-discharge dismissals. If the debtor has already received a discharge and it is not revoked, then the debtor would be barred under section 727 (a) from receiving a discharge in a subsequent liquidation case for six years. Dismissal of an involuntary on the merits will generally not give rise to adequate cause so as to bar the debtor from further relief.
Subsection (b) specifies that the dismissal reinstates proceedings or custodianships that were superseded by the bankruptcy case, reinstates avoided transfers, reinstates voided liens, vacates any order, judgment, or transfer ordered as a result of the avoidance of a transfer, and revests the property of the estate in the entity in which the property was vested at the commencement of the case. The court is permitted to order a different result for cause. The basic purpose of the subsection is to undo the bankruptcy case, as far as practicable, and to restore all property rights to the position in which they were found at the commencement of the case. This does not necessarily encompass undoing sales of property from the estate to a good faith purchaser. Where there is a question over the scope of the subsection, the court will make the appropriate orders to protect rights acquired in reliance on the bankruptcy case.
1994—Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 103–394substituted "109(g)" for "109(f)".
1984—Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 98–353inserted "; nor does the dismissal of a case under this title prejudice the debtor with regard to the filing of a subsequent petition under this title, except as provided in section 109 (f) of this title".
Effective Date of 1994 Amendment
Amendment by Pub. L. 103–394effective Oct. 22, 1994, and not applicable with respect to cases commenced under this title before Oct. 22, 1994, see section 702 ofPub. L. 103–394, set out as a note under section 101 of this title.

I found a great article on Yahoo.com about how to fight your candy cravings with something healthier.
Like instead of a Snickers bar, eat almonds and cocoa powder mixed together. Way less calories, plus you get protein, fiber, and more.
If you're a Skittles freak like I am, they suggest frozen grapes. I'm not sure about that one, but to each their own.
Could you see handing out bags of frozen grapes at the house this year for Halloween? That would go over spectacularly, I'm sure.

Naval Air Station Oceana
Our mission is to support the Navy's Atlantic and Pacific Fleet Force of Strike-Fighter Aircraft & Joint/Inter-Agency Operations.
Naval Air Station Oceana is the Navy's East Coast Master Jet Base, home to the F/A-18 Hornets and Super Hornets. The primary mission of the Naval Air Station Oceana is as a Shore-Based Readiness Integrator, providing the facilities, equipment and personnel to support shored-based readiness, total force readiness and maintain operational access of Oceana-based forces.
The base, including Dam Neck Annex, has about 10,500 active Navy personnel, about 10,000 family members and 4,500 civilian personnel, making NAS Oceana the second largest employer in Virginia Beach after JEB Little Creek/Fort Story. Oceana also hosts the largest Fleet Replacement Squadron, VFA-106, with about 1500 personnel assigned.
Oceana is home to eighteen Hornet and Super Hornet squadrons. Sixteen squadrons deploy on carriers into combat and two are permanently based at Oceana, including the adversary squadron. Routinely, two-thirds of this complement is "working up" on carriers off the coast or deployed at NAS Fallon, Nevada for live air-to-ground and air-to-air weapons training. Typically, an air wing overseas deployment lasts six to seven months.

MADISON, WI (WTAQ) - All five candidates for two statewide offices this spring will be certified on Monday – and their names will be placed on the ballot.
The state Government Accountability Board said the 5 candidates did not have any of their nominating signatures challenged.
That means Supreme Court Justice Pat Roggensack and challengers Vince Megna and Ed Fallone will have a primary on February 19th – and state school Superintendent Tony Evers and Assembly Republican Don Pridemore will have their one and only contest on April 2nd.
All five candidates were supposed to file at least 2,000 nominating signatures by January 3rd.
Pridemore came the closest to the minimum, with 2,051. Megna had the second-lowest number of signatures with 2,124.

What is it about Sergio Agüero's sense of occasion? Not for the first time he provided the match winning contribution as Manchester City came from behind to do what no team has done for 12 months, beat Porto at the Estádio do Dragão.
The Portuguese champions have one of the best home records in European football. Unbeaten in the league since 2008, they have not been defeated on their own ground in any competition since February. That was until, with the game in the balance, City called on their not so secret weapon. Right on cue Kun Agüero laced up his blue v1.11 Speed boots and went on to secure a dramatic victory.
When Porto took the lead after 28 minutes it looked unlikely Man City would get anything out of the game. The home team crafted a well-worked opener, Hulk flashing in an indefensible cross for Silvestre Varela to sweep in from six yards. The goal settled Porto and they took a deserved lead into the half-time break leaving Manchester City with plenty to do.
It was Yaya Touré who got the comeback started. On 55 minutes his 40 metre angled pass proved too much for Alvaro Pereira to cope with. Under pressure the Porto defender had no option but to deflect the ball into his own net.
With the scores now level and the tide shifting City pushed on but couldn't find that cutting edge in the final third. They needed someone who could add that special something. With 77 minutes gone they called on Sergio Agüero.
With just under ten minutes to go Touré's pressing in midfield won the ball back for City who released him down the channel. The big Ivorian broke into the box and had the presence of mind to roll the ball across the area to his mate Agüero who stroked it in. With that the comeback was complete and Kun was the hero once again. His continued deadliness in front of goal will prove crucial as City battle for domestic and European honours but as last night's performance shows, little is beyond him.
The blue v1.11 Speed boots are now available to buy.

First of all, I do not use my new backpack for "school". I use mine as an overnight bag or carry on for plane trips. It is a very attractive wheeled backpack - mine is the black/white check. Size is perfect for an overnight, weekend trip or carry on. I had another backpack for many years, but the handle finally broke. The handle on my new one doesn't seem too sturdy so I'm not sure how long this one will last. Also the zippers do not go all the way down, only about halfway on each side, which makes it a little more difficult to pack. I do like having the two separate zippered areas. Overall, for the price, it is a very nice, attractive backpack.
My daughter started using this backpack last week. The durability and functionality of the backpack is phenomenal and it's great looking. the burgundy color is nice and it's roomy.
The quality looks good and the size is great for for two grand kids. I got them one black and one red. You can hide the backpack straps and use it as a rolling back. Great buy!
We bought a Pacific Gear wheeled pack last year and it was good quality for the price. The plastic bottom frame broke about halfway through the year, but it was still usable. This year's model did not work out so well! Within a week of use, the wheel fell off! The plastic casing for the wheel axel is very thin and did not hold up. Will have to return it and get a different pack.
I bought these backpacks for my middle school niece and nephew. They looked much better than the ones that are purchased in stores on back-to-school specials. By April, the frame had broken across the bottom in both of the backpacks and I have to find new ones again this year! Not exactly how I wanted to spend my money!
For students having to lug those bigger books & binders, this backpack is perfect as a rolling and regular carry on backpack. My son even used it as his travel case thus summer and it held enough for a 5 day trip.
I needed some sort of wheeled bag for school. Being in the medical field I have to lug around a lot of heavy books everyday. Everything else I found was just too big and bulky or too expensive. This backpack turned out to be the perfect solution. It is big enough to fit all my books and with wheels and a handle it's very easy to tote around, and I don't have to worry about hurting my back anymore. The front zippered section has convenient little pockets, a zippered compartment and other little spaces that are just right for storing supplies and even my wallet. I also really like the maroon color and it only took a few days to arrive at my doorstep.
I purchased the one with the race checkered pattern. My son hasn't had it that long and its already ripped!
Bought this wheeled backpack for my 9 year old granddaughter for her school books, as they were exceedingly heavy. She loves it.
When The backpack arrived one of the wheel covers was broke not really a big deal but now the handle is coming off because the screw heads popped through the plastic so whats next!!!

As easy target wasn't so easy when a guard came out with a gun bigger than the bad guys. Now the private security officer that stopped the robbery is speaking out and offering a hefty reward.
"It takes seconds for somebody to come into your homes, come into your businesses with guns. You can't prepare for it," he said.
What the private security officer experienced Thursday afternoon proves that. The whole thing was caught on camera. It happened at an Inkster tax preparation business. A man and woman believed to be in their late twenties or early thirties opened the door. The security officer, who asked us not to use his name, says the doors are normally locked.
"One of the employees there unlocked the doors without my permission," he said.
That's when Bonnie and Clyde pointed their guns and took their shot.
"What was going through my mind [was] the citizens that were actually inside the office and their safety," the guard said.
He fire two shots and the couple took off empty handed. The security officer was grazed by a bullet but essentially uninjured.
"I am grateful that everybody was able to walk away and wiggle their toes and their fingers and still breathe. I'm happy to be here," he said. "I'm not happy we're still looking for the individuals."
That's why he's putting up his own reward -- $1,000 to anyone who helps track down these thugs because, bottom line, no one deserves to live in fear.
"We have to make a stand against violence and these types of activities, so I'm very adamant about bring these people to justice," he said.
Police are still waiting on tips and don't believe the suspects are from Inkster. Hopefully this reward will get people talking. If you have any information call Inkster police or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.

From WENN.com
Shawn King casually checked an incoming text on her son Chance's phone - and was shocked to see a picture of a scantily-clad girl.
She tells U.S. news show Access Hollywood Live, ""A couple of years ago... Chance's phone just happened to be next to me and I see a photograph of a girl in a T-shirt and her underwear... I was like, 'What the heck are you doing texting my son?'
""He doesn't know that it ever came in because there's this thing called delete.""
The experience made King more vigilant about checking her son's online and cellphone accounts, and she urges other parents to follow her example: ""You have to know their Facebook passcode. You have to have it all... It's so sad.""

I'm a wreck tonight. I feel like I can't do anything...or rather like I can't stop trying to do everything in order to keep my mind off of court tomorrow. Of course my thought process is just going in a constant loop. I tell myself there's a good chance things could change dramatically and she could go with dad or someone in dad's family soon, and then I tell myself that the GAL said he wanted to move towards permanency and that the CASA and SW have said that would have a problem with whoever the dad was knowing they took advantage of mom. And then I remember that mom said she doesn't want baby girl anywhere near the dad or his family because they're bad people. But then I tell myself that mom isn't in her right mind so who knows if there's any truth to all the bad stuff she's said about him (and it's bad) and I think that just because he's bad news (if he is) doesn't mean his family is. Then I think about the last visit and how everyone at DSS acted like it was the last time they'd ever see us and came out and hugged me and hugged baby girl and that was weird though I got no explanations about that. I've learned not to bother asking with DSS. And then once I've gone over and over that in my head, I get nervous about seeing mom again. She scared the crap out of me the last time I saw her, and all reports say she is doing much worse than she was then. Part of me hopes she doesn't show up because I'm so scared to run into her and to have to try to deal with that. They told me if she talks to me not to bring up baby girl at all...but duh baby girl is the only thing we have in common so if she talks to me she's going to ask. They told me just to say she's doing great and we're taking good care of her. But she always wants details about what she's doing now and how she eats, etc. I'm scared just anything could set her off and I'll be the one who did it AGAIN.
It all ends with me telling myself yet again that I have no control over what happens and trying to think about it from a logical stand point and not an emotional one. I am getting better at doing that but it only lasts so long before the loops starts again. At least tomorrow this court date will be over...whatever happens. That wait will be over and we'll have some answers and probably something to deal with. At least we'll know what comes next, or have a better idea of what's coming next anyway. Okay rant over. And yes this is what it's like inside my head all the time. It's exhausting. Lol.

Back in the days of segregated Atlanta, decent housing was difficult to find. A city alderman, a developer and several community organizers put their heads together to form a neighborhood of their own.
Collier Heights is nestled in northwest Atlanta, just 12 minutes from downtown. That's where Atlanta builder Herman Russell built his dream home.
"He wanted to build his dream home and through the network of black professionals that he was a part of," said Michael Russell.
In 1998, Michael moved back into the home with his wife and two sons. The six-bedroom house sits on two acres, complete with a basketball court, tennis court and a large entertainment space. It also includes an indoor pool that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was known to swim in.
"During that era...blacks couldn't go to the Hyatt and Marriott where we all go now to entertain," said Michael Turner.
History books said that nowhere else in the nation were African-Americans developing their own communities like the one in Collier Heights. Vernell Hall, now 92, was there.
"When I came out here, Baker Road all over in there, Bankhead Highway -- it was all white. All of that area was white," Hall said.
Tired of moving from place to place, the then-Atlanta school teacher gave her husband a pretty stiff ultimatum.
"We had been trying to find a place that we could be comfortable in," she said. "I told him that we would either have to get a place to call our own or I was going back home to Americus."
The cluster of subdivisions that formed Collier Heights was founded in 1948 or 1949. Hall still lives in the same ranch home almost 60 years later.
Dr. Louis Reese bought into the Collier Heights concept as well.
"I was the first black ophthalmologist in Georgia," Reese said.
Reese and his family moved in 1956. The still-practicing 90-year-old ophthalmologist says segregation led him to Collier Heights.
"For those who remember those days down Hunter Street until you got to the bridge and then it turned to white only on the other side of the railroad bridge," Reese said.
Lena Webb used to be a tour guide for the historic community. Her parents bought a house in the 1960s that she still lives in today.
"Most of the homes were built by blacks for blacks. That was the selling point I guess, in the tours I use to do," Webb said.
Now the nation has recognized the significance of what happened in Atlanta 65 years ago. In 2009, Collier Heights was added to the National Registry of Historic Places.
Homeowners beamed with pride.
"I'm proud. I've always been proud of the neighborhood. It's really interesting and deserving that this neighborhood with all the history that it has been recognized for what it is: a unique neighborhood developed by African-Americans and has maintained its African-American heritage," said Michael Russell.
Collier Heights is now applying for designation as a historic neighborhood in the city of Atlanta. Homeowners say if that happens, the neighborhood can never be torn down.

Graduate Programs
engAGE Your Career
The U.S. Department of Labor has identified careers in aging as a high-growth industry over the next 10 years, with an exponential boom predicted in jobs to develop the infrastructure required to support our increased population of older adults.
Aging is the most universal of human experiences: a complex phenomenon that shapes individuals, families and societies. At the USC Davis School gerontology is the study of aging across the human lifespan and graduates from our graduate level programs enjoy a deeper understanding of how their profession intertwines with the human condition across the spectrum of age.
At the graduate level students can choose from our four master's programs, graduate certificate, or Ph.D. programs in gerontology.

Bianca's Q & A
Who's your favorite sports team, and why?
BAMA!!! I know it's strange being I'm a NYC girl, who went to college in Connecticut, but the first football game I ever went to was Alabama vs. Georgia on Bama's home turf. I remember it like it was yesterday... The thrill of the game, the shakers, face painters, and "roll tide!" cheers! The experience was intoxicating and I've been a dedicated Bama fan ever since! Roll Tide!
What's your favorite movie quote?
In Dirty Dancing, when Baby meets Johnny (mmm... Patrick Swayze!), she awkwardly blurts out "I carried a watermelon." It's so funny, cause it's totally one of those silly moments I would have in front of a guy I liked, and then I'd kick myself later!
What's your favorite video game, and could you kick our butts at it?
Oh boy! This is old school, but I just love Mario Bros. The "ghetto-tendo" version, of course! I was so excited to learn you can now play the original game on Wii.
Piercings/Tattoos (How many? Where?)
The most daring thing I have is a belly button ring. I like the idea of getting a tattoo, I've just never had the guts!
What's the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
Britney Spears, "Baby, One More Time." I know all the words! It's addictive!
What's your best party trick?
Super embarrassing! When I was in college I was really good at this trick called "bitches blow," it's a half-cheating, half-legit skill for blowing your opponents ball out of the cup during a game of Beirut (that's what we called it up North. Some schools call the game "Beer Pong"). There was even an article in the school paper written about my talent! My mom must be so proud!
What's the most memorable pick-up line you've ever heard?
Within the same week, one guy at the gym called me "brolic," while another gym dude called me "vascular." Probably not a typical compliment for most girls, but for a fitness freak like me, it was a total turn-on!
What's the worst job you've ever had?
When I first became a trainer, I worked for a major fitness club that had me pay dues with 5 AM shifts where I was basically a gym janitor, putting weights away and cleaning up after members. Shh... don't tell, but every morning I'd take towels from the locker room and take naps during my shift at the top of the back stairwell. The managers didn't come in till 9. ;)
What's the most dangerous thing you've ever done?
Probably lifting more weight at the gym than I should. I get really competitive and love to lift heavy! I leg press 500 pounds, and bench 120!
It's 4AM after a crazy night out – what are we eating?
Carbs! Lately, cereal. I love Raisin Bran with blueberries, bananas and milk. It's my number one cheat!
What's the strangest thing in your fridge right now?
Probably how many eggs I have. I buy dozens by the dozens... Lol! I eat a LOT of egg whites! Protein!
What's the naughtiest thing you've ever done in public?
In a car, on the highway, now you see me, now you don't! Oh boy! Mom, forgive me!
What do you feel sexiest wearing?
Lingerie with all the trimmings! Garter belts, stockings, heels, the works! I like a man who takes the time to unwrap me, like a gift!
Tell us a joke.
That awkward moment when... you're spotting someone at the gym and his chest press turns into your upright rows!

Now, onto a recipe for Cheesy Cabbage Potato Soup... this is a repost, but so good. I made a batch and it is just so comforting on a cold winter day.. and it's low fat and healthy too!
Cooking spray
- 1 onion (around 1 cup, diced)
- 1 t dried thyme
- 1 t dried dill
- 1 t paprika
- 1/2 t caraway seeds
- 5 cloves garlic
- pinch salt
- 6 c shredded green cabbage (around 1/2 a medium head)
- 2 c diced potatoes (around 2 medium)
- 1-2 canned chipotle pepper in adobo (use 1 if you don't like heat in your soup)
- 6 c water
- 1.5 bouillon cubes
- black pepper to taste
In a large, heavy bottomed soup pan over medium heat spray with cooking spray add the onions, garlic and spices along with a pinch of salt. Cook for several minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Now, add the cabbage and potatoes and chipotle and coat with the spice/onion mixture for several more minutes. Add the water and bouillon and bring to a boil, uncovered. Simmer for several minutes, then turn the heat down to low and cover and allow the potatoes and cabbage to cook. Meanwhile, prepare the 'cheese/cream mixture
Cheesy Cream:
1/2 block lite tofu
1/4 c nutritional yeast
1.5 T tahini
2 t dijon mustard
2 small cloves garlic (around 1.5 t, crushed)
1 t yellow mustard (prepared)
2 T umeboshi vinegar (or 1 T soy sauce and 1 T lemon juice)
1 T lemon juice
Process all of the above in a food processor until totally smooth. When the soup is done take it off the heat (this is VERY important or the mixture will curdle) and stir into the pot. Let it sit, covered for 5 minutes and taste for salt/pepper. If you'd like, add around 3 cups of the soup to the food processor and puree for a creamier soup (and to get all of the cheesy sauce out!). Add the pureed soup back into the pot. Enjoy!
This makes around 8 cups of soup (I think it may have made more, but I didn't measure it exactly)
A 2 cup serving provides: (1 cup would ALMOST be a 100 calorie snack!)

5 g fat

text: Ok, so I've been majorly MIA. Anyway, just wanted to say hi to everyone and that I'm still hanging around. I'm about 99% sure we're out this month. I ovulated during DH's night shifts at work and so the closest we BD'd was 4 days before. With how crappy his swimmers are, I highly doubt any would have survived that long. So, we are looking on to next month and hoping I don't O during his night shifts. He only works nights 1 week a month, but I always seem to ovulate then and it sucks. Anyway, I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas!

A freshly-published patent application describes a trackpad that jettisons the usual click buttons in favor of sensors and tactile feedback.
The keyboard and trackpad on the new 13-inch model are locking up at times, say many users.
Valve has lifted the lid on a new type of controller, with a touchscreen, trackpads, and buzzing feedback.
You can also use Apple's Quick Look feature from a trackpad.
Valve reveals its very own controller -- with two circular trackpads -- joining the company's new operating system and custom hardware prototypes announced earlier this week.
A joint effort with Intel, Synaptics, and Elan will try to correct some of the limitations in today's trackpads for Windows 8 notebooks.
A newly awarded patent describes a touch-sensitive trackpad panel that could replace a traditional trackpad on a MacBook or other device.
Are you using the best way to perform a right- or secondary-click on a MacBook? Take a look at these five options to see if there might be a better way.
Apple's Magic Trackpad offers all the functionality of a MacBook clickpad in a standalone Bluetooth device. For most people, however, it's not worth the pricey upgrade over an existing mouse.
Frustrated by fickle trackpad performance in Boot Camp? Trackpad++ makes life a little easier.

A manhunt is underway for a shooter who opened fire at a Detroit liquor
store Sunday. The shooting was caught on camera. The victim is still
alive and the suspect is still on the loose.
Click on the video player to watch Randy Wimbley's report.
The footage is jarring. A man wearing a blue hoodie fires several rounds at point blank range; shoppers scramble for safety. It happened at the Bluelight Liquor Store on Mack Ave. around 5:30pm Sunday. The victim was returning empty bottles to make a quick buck.
"He's a good kid," said one man who asked not to be identified. "He wasn't into drugs or nothing like that."
The man tells Fox 2 the victim is a father in his late teens.
Moments before the shots rang out, the victim lunged at the shooter seemingly in an attempt to take his gun but it didn't work. Someone tackled the gunman before he took off, but he got away and amazingly the victim survived. He's in the hospital in stable condition; he was shot in the stomach and arm.
The suspect is described as a light skinned black man in his 20's, no taller than 5'10". If you have any information call CrimeStoppers at 1-800-SPEAKUP.
