When I ordered my Ganesha statue, I didn't expect it to arrive so quickly but BOOM, there he was on my porch in less than a week! It was packed meticulously and with the love that it deserved. He is sitting proudly in my living room now and I couldn't be happier. Thank you!Reviewer:Monica (Kalamazoo, Michigan, US)
Buddha as presented. Packed well. Shipped quickly. How could I not be pleased? We are most happy with this purchase!Reviewer:L. Mattas (Hidden Valley Lake, California, US)
thanks for all. I apreciate your fast serviceReviewer:yolanda (aventura, florida, US)
I cannot say enough positive about my experience in working with Kyle at Lotus Sculpture. I made a purchase of a beautiful Buddha, and it was damaged during shipping. Kyle was so positive and supportive, professional and personable: as unhappy as I am over loosing the beautiful Buddha I had chosen, Kyle worked with me to find another. I am very delighted with my Buddha; the new one has arrived safetly and is even more amazing than Kyle could describe. Every time I have ever contacted Kyle with any question, he has been very quick to respond, and given me good information. My overall experience with Kyle and Lotus Sculpture has been very positive, and I am looking forward to future satisfying events. Thank you, Des.Reviewer:Ava Desiree Hutsell (Warwick, RI, US)
Buying these Ganeshas were a dream of mine for so long and I'm glad I did. Kyle was absolutely wonderful to deal and my Ganeshas came rather quickly and beautifully packaged. They are treasures on my altar and already I'm thinking of my next purchase. Thank you Lotus Sculpture for your wonderful service.Reviewer:Aman Pillay (Auckland, Auckland, NZ)
I have been looking at this statue for years, and knew deep down that I wanted to add it to my collection of other Lotus Sculpture statues. This antique statue is unique (estimated to be between 50 and 200 years old) and was offered to me at such a special discount that I felt overwhelmed when I opened the box, carefully packaged by Kyle and his team. When I looked at Goddess Meenakshi I smiled, because her nose is slightly crooked just like mine! I knew immediately that I am part of her and she is part of me. She is now sitting proudly on a dresser beside another antique statue of Shiva. Their respective heights are perfect. The love couple is complete! Thanks to Lotus Sculpture and Kyle Tortora for his generosity and for giving me this one chance opportunity to be connected to what is close to my heart. May Lotus Sculpture be prosperous!Reviewer:Jenny Wolkowicki (Roselle Park, NJ, US)
In all of my interactions with the owner of Lotus Sculpture, I experienced respectful communication, clear organization and overall excellent customer service. Thank you. I love the piece I bought from you.Reviewer:Amy Nosek (Bowen Island, British Columbia, CA)
Kyle with Lotus Sculpture, worked with us to find the best situation for our new swimming pool. We purchased two beautiful Buddha Heads that now stand on our pool columns overlooking the pool. Beautiful!!! We'll continue to shop here for more special Buddha's.Reviewer:David A. Kress (Chandler, AZ, US)
LOVE IT. I can feel the energy of it. VERY BEAUTIFUL! Thank you! Namaste, FabienneReviewer:Fabienne Diaz (Chapel Hill, North Carolina, US)

River Basin Initiative design workshop described
River Basin Initiative Design Workshop and Partners' Meeting, Wageningen, The Netherlands
14-16 May 2001
Dr Nick Davidson, Ramsar representative to the meeting, describes its significance:
This is a key meeting in the development of the RBI since it will bring together the wide range of organisations who are joining this important Initiative for the Convention. The RBI is a joint Ramsar-CBD initiative under our Joint Work Plan, and is the major tangible demonstration of how such plans can and should be operationalised. The workshop will involve both international partner organisations (including our IOPs and other NGOs, global biodiversity and water resource management organisations, and multilateral and bilateral donors) and, through Netherlands government resourcing to Wetlands International, a number of country representatives. The workshop will review and develop the present design of the Initiative, particularly in relation to the preparation of a project submission to UNDP-GEF (part funding for the workshop comes through a PDF-A grant from UNDP to develop the work). The partnership approach of the Initiative is already yielding significant opportunities for working together to better mainstream wetlands and biodiversity issues into water resource management, to provide a 'clearing-house' of information exchange on wetlands, biodiversity and river basin management, and develop analyses and reporting to contribute to better information and understanding of these issues as guidance for Ramsar Parties, CBD through its inland waters programme of work, other environmental conventions and partner organisations.

Civil Rights Activist Reverend Al Sharpton will make his way to Sanford Thursday. In an interview with FOX 35 on Saturday, he said he will be rallying with leaders to call for the arrest of George Zimmerman.
Zimmerman, a neighborhood watch volunteer, said he shot and killed 17-year old Trayvon Martin, in an act of self-defense. Martin was unarmed.
"Clearly, you have an unarmed man killed, and there seems to be no reason this person could claim self-defense," Sharpton said Saturday.
He also responded to the 911 calls police released late Friday, almost three-weeks since the fatal shooting.
"The most disturbing part was when I heard them calling for help, which appeared to be the young man," he said.
After hearing the calls made to the police on the night Martin was killed, people who live in the community where it happened are outraged.
"To hear the tape, 'Help me! Help me! Help me!' leaves me with the impression he was pointing the gun at him [Martin], then he fired," said Jonathon Wilson. "It's not self-defense. It's murder. Justice has to prevail."
Several rallies are expected next week, beginning on Sunday.
Sanford Mayor Jeff Triplett told FOX 35 he is working with other city leaders to figure out ways to handle traffic and crowd control for the peaceful protests.

But you all should check out the show. It actually reminds me a lot of my southern friends, the way they are what I call a "mean nice." They have a wonderful tone of voice when around you and make it seem like they are speaking highly of you but they are smiling in your face and bashing you. It is pretty hilarious in person being that I am a blunt person and will just say what I want with no cushioning. I see what they do as an art form of sorts.
But I understand what you mean about the crazy men. Atlanta is now considered an "Asian Mecca" mostly a lot of Koreans have moved here and I work with a few. About 2 of our public housing buildings have a very large Asian population, over 30% at each building which is always shocking to people who don't really know much about Atlanta, but my co-workers have told me that there are some really crazy freaky men who think they can say anything to them. It is unbelievable what some of them have told me about being online and even just everyday life that those freaks have done or said.
Bridget, I am so sorry your DBF is being so jerky about the trip. I agree you have a lot of patience. Like I always say he reminds me of my DH. I have been in a similar position where I was kind of really depending on him to travel somewhere with us and he was starting to flake out. I started to get angry at him, the last time was during a tough spell for us that he flaked like that and so I said F him and told him so and that I would go by myself. He tried to protest, I think wanting to be a martyr too, but I refused to let him go and went by myself. I hope you have a great time on your trip and like the other ladies have said, at least you can have some help when you get there.
Is there any way you can leave super early and maybe the kids can sleep the whole way. Elle used to be crazy in her carseat too with the screaming on road trips and she doesn't like them to this day. I always leave super early to lessen the amount of time I have to hear her complaining and also it will lesson the stops/potty breaks we will have to take. When we went to FL recently we left at 5 am so that I could get a good 4 hours driving in before the kids would want to eat/potty break and on really long trips I will do them overnight so that the kids will sleep the whole way and I can drive for 7-8 hours straight (usually we leave at midnight or 1am when we go to OH or Chicago by car).

text: By Brian Stelter and Michael PearsonWednesday's release of audio recordings of the 911 calls from the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings will force news organizations to make difficult -- and probably unpopular -- decisions about what to broadcast and what to hold back. News executives are considering both the wishes of the community where the school was located, Newtown, Connecticut, and the journalistic impulse to report on one of the biggest news stories of the past year.Many say the tapes are inherently newsworthy. But the tapes will be emotionally wrenching to hear and will probably shock and horrify at least some portion of the audience if television networks and websites choose to make the audio widely accessible. One Newtown official, Board of Selectmen member Patricia Llodra, said Wednesday that the release of the tapes "will create a new layer of pain for many in the Newtown community."Representatives of several television networks signaled Wednesday morning that they would approach use of the tapes with caution."CNN will review the tapes when they are released and make a determination then about what, if any, we will use on air and online," a spokeswoman for the network said.A spokeswoman for CBS said, "we will make an editorial decision once we've listened to the tapes."Some television networks will almost certainly broadcast some portion of the audio on Wednesday but only after reviewing the tapes independently.In an internal memorandum, NBC News President Deborah Turness emphasized this point to staffers: "We must listen to the tapes when they are released and make our final decision. But for the avoidance of doubt, no NBC News network outlet online or on TV should use the tapes until that decision has been taken." Turness acknowledged that some families of the shooting victims have been against the release of the tapes. She wrote that "unless there is any compelling editorial reason to play the tapes, I would like to respect their wishes."Balancing actWhile often criticized for using 911 tapes to exploit human tragedy, news organizations have an obligation to fight for the release of documents and records that can serve important public ends, such as disclosing improper conduct by authorities or insufficient response to emergencies or other issues, said Al Tompkins, senior faculty member for broadcast and online journalism at the Poynter Institute, a journalism think tank.In deciding whether to use the Newtown tapes, Tompkins said, editors shouldn't make up their minds until after they are released."I think you're going to have to listen to them and find out if there's any news," he said."The ethical place to be is to listen and to make your decision on two things," he said. "What is your journalism value in using or not using these things, and two, would the good from using them outweigh the harm?"If news outlets choose to make use of the tapes, editors should carefully consider the "tone and degree" of coverage and take pains to explain their decisions to their audience.Emergency calls can often prove newsworthy, Tompkins pointed out, as in the case of the Travyon Martin shooting, in which a struggle and the fatal shot itself could be heard in the background of one call."Very often, 911 tapes can shed tremendous light on acts of heroism, on acts of cold-heartedness, on efforts to respond."But fighting for the release of information that should be available to the public doesn't mean news organizations should, or even will, make those details available to their audiences, he said."A bad reason for using them is if they are merely interesting, emotional, sensational and just raise public emotion without any illumination," Tompkins said.Too much pain?Llodra, the Newtown official, said in a blog post that as they cover the 911 tapes and the one-year anniversary of the shootings, reporters should "recognize that there is great personal pain in this event and little public good to be garnered through the general release."She continued, "Imagine yourself as a parent of a child who was killed, or a family member of one of the six educators. Imagine yourself as a teacher or staff member in that building desperate to save the lives of children. Imagine you are the parent of a child who was able to escape. Then ask yourself, media person, what is the public good and how do I balance that against the hurt?" The-CNN-Wire ™ & © 2013 Cable News Network, Inc., a Time Warner Company. All rights reserved.

MILWAUKEE, WI (WTAQ) - One of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's former aides is pleading guilty to charges he stole thousands of dollars from a non-profit group for veterans.
Tim Russell was on Walker's staff from 2002 to 2010 while Walker was Milwaukee County Executive.
Prosecutors charged Russell with stealing at least $21,000 from a group Walker had asked him to lead.
Russell entered a guilty plea Thursday in exchange for the dismissal of some of the charges he was facing.
The charges came as the result of the secret John Doe investigation into Walker's associates and campaign donors which was start in May 2010. Four people have been convicted, but the governor hasn't been charged with any wrongdoing himself.

Comments On Feb 23, 2014:This product in combination with the R&D adjustable air screw eliminated all hesitation/ bog and backfiring on deceleration. Not to say this product is a miracle worker ( you still need to do some jetting and adjustments) it just makes the process much easier. My only complaint is that it does not have a float bowl drain screw, making draining the bowl a messy proposition.

Comments On Oct 25, 2013:i installed the Power Bowl on my 08 crf450r , it only took about 30 min to put on. i live at 6200 ft here in Ut and my bike screams, no more race fuel, grate throttle response, and very easy to tune. I recommend this mod to any one that has a tricked out motor that is looking to squeeze out every drop of power there motor has to offer. dont go buying a new fuel injected bike, just get a R&D power bowl

Comments On May 31, 2013:Definitely made the throttle a bit snappier. Great protect.

Comments On May 01, 2013:Installed same time as JD Jet Kit. Outstanding performance! The response is instantaneous and the bike rips. The adjustable leak jet sped up tuning.

Comments On Nov 25, 2012:NICE TO HAVE ADJUSTIABILTY .BUT DONT CHANGE MUCH ,IT DID HELP. I THINK THE R AND D FLEX FUEL SCREW IS WORTH MORE. I JUST THINK THE POWER BOWL IS A LITTLE PRICEY.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Apr 02, 2012:This is one mod that is worth every penny. I was very skeptical on how having a different float bowl would change the way the bike ran, but it does.
No idea how it works, but it's a night and day difference from the stock bowl.
I don't know if it's just having the adjustable leak jet or not, but it works very nicely. It's nice to slam the throttle wide open and not have to worry about the initial 4-stroke bog.
I have since purchased a 2012 RMZ-450 and I think my YZ-F was more responsive with this float bowl installed. Time will tell as the RMZ only has about 45 minutes on it and the engine is still breaking in.

Comments On Jun 26, 2009:good power and was not hard to install i like it was a good mod for my yfz450

Comments On Apr 15, 2009:This is a great product. A bit expensive for a carb mod but it worked great, the throttle spring was easier, the off-idle burble is gone, response is excellent. Racers need this.

PILGER, NE (RNN) – Two people are confirmed dead after a dangerous storm system spawning a rare double tornado that ripped through areas 100 miles northeast of Omaha, NE, on Monday.
A five-year-old died in Pilger, NE, according to Staton County Sheriff Mike Unger. A second person died outside of town.
Sixteen others were in critical condition, according to Faith Regional Hospital spokeswoman Jodi Richey. In Wayne, NE, three tornado victims were treated for injuries at Providence Medical Center; two victims were treated for lacerations and released Monday night, and another is listed in stable condition.
The severe weather moved through Iowa and into southwest Minnesota Monday evening. Tornado warnings for south central Nebraska have been canceled as of 9 p.m. CT, according to a tweet from the National Weather Service Hastings.
There were reports of tornadoes in southern Wisconsin early Tuesday morning, with a roof torn off a house in Madison, WI. There were other reports of damage in Dane and Green counties, WI.
Shortly before 4 p.m. CT, a massive tornado touched down in Stanton, NE, beginning the hours-long movement of fast and dangerous storms. The storm then moved to Pilger, NE, 101 miles northwest of Omaha, and a town of about 350 people.
According to the Associated Press, the two tornadoes that touched down shortly after 4 p.m. CT were about a mile apart.
Major damage was reported in Pilger, NE as the massive storm system moved quickly through, causing a stovepipe tornado. Stanton County, NE, Commissioner Jerry Weatherhold told the AP that one of the massive tornadoes destroyed more than half of Pilger.
"More than half of the town is gone - absolutely gone," Weatherholt said. "The co-op is gone, the grain bins are gone, and it looks like almost every house in town has some damage. It's a complete mess."
Stanton County Sheriff Mike Unger told the AP that betweet 50 and 75 percent of Pilger was heavily damaged following the storm, with a local school totally destoryed. Unger also said five people had to be rescued from a rural home day care northwest of Stanton, NE.
"I've been telling people for many years that I've never seen a tornado in my life and I grew up in northeast Nebraska. Well, I got to see something today I wish I never would have seen," Unger said.
Gregg Moeller of Wisner, NE told the Norfolk Daily News that the two tornadoes were "like God dragged two fingernails across the land."
The Nebraska Emergency Management Agency, or NEMA, said in a press release that rescue crews were working in Stanton, Cuming and Wayne counties, as the search for survivors underneath debris begins.
The Nebraska National Guard has also been deployed with NEMA to begin assisting residents in areas where Nebraska Gov. Dave Heineman has declared a state of emergency. Heineman will travel to Pilger to survey tornado damage on Tuesday.
At one point, two massive wedge tornadoes were reported on the ground simultaneously. CNN reports that one tornado created winds of up to 200 miles per hour.
The storms going through northern and central Nebraska produced strong winds, golf ball-sized hail, flash-flooding and severe thunderstorms.
One Nebraska resident tweeted, "I have never seen anything like this. The first twister went down Pilger main street."
The National Weather Service - Omaha tweeted that multiple tornadoes have been spotted since the first were reported in Stanton around 3:30 p.m. CT. The National Weather Service also reported a tornado near Burwell, NE late Monday evening.

OK....so you've decided it's time to hunker down and lose those extra pounds. Maybe you're just feeling lazy and you want to start working out and exercising more.
That's awesome....and I hope you get motivated and are able to keep at it and get healthy.
But, how do you know if you're actually doing what you need to do? How do you know if you're burning the right amount of calories? How do you gauge if you're working within your maximum range of heart rate? Well, if you're going to make an investment in yourself by exercising - I encourage you to make another investment. A good Heart Rate Monitor.
This is my Polar Heart Rate Monitor - and they're available at any of the Fitness shops in the area. I got mine at Dunham's, and it was right around $90.00.
It tracks my heart rate as I'm running or working out. It keeps track of the amount of calories I'm burning as I run or work out - that way I know if I need to push it harder (or some days, back off a little.)
How do I know it works?

children must be under the age of 12 at the time of
Chalet Le Sommet is situated in a panoramic location high up at the top of the resort with sensational views over the village, valley and mountains. Le Sommet is an individual chalet that adjoins the 'Des Neiges Residence'. It is close to the resort centre and offers excellent ski access as well as very comfortable bedrooms, each with en suite facilities and a balcony, and there are two rooms with additional bunks, ideal for families.
A particularly attractive feature is the impressive lounge/dining room with its vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and picture windows affording stunning views of the surrounding mountains. In addition all guests have free use of the sauna and swimming pool in the adjoining 'Des Neiges Residence', which is open from 16:00-20:00 every day except Saturday.
Intermediate skiers can take a short unpisted track which links to the piste via the track from the Plein Sud run which brings you back to within 100m of the building. For the less 'gung-ho', the slopes can be reached after a gentle 6-7 minute walk through the resort.
For Val Thorens' lively night life a short stroll will bring you to all the action and fun.

For six days of the week the staff prepares all your meals.
Breakfast: We pride ourselves on giving you a great breakfast to start your day, with a choice of cereals, fresh fruit and juices, yoghurts, plentiful English tea and good filter coffee, bread freshly baked in our chalets each morning, cold meats, cheeses and preserves, and boiled eggs. This is normally presented buffet-style for you to help yourself. And to cap it all, we also cook a hot dish of the day for you six days per week, such as sausage and bacon or pancakes with fresh fruit, individually served. On the chalet hosts' day off, they will prepare a Continental style breakfast for you, which will be left for you to help yourselves, and that evening you have the chance to eat out in one of the local cafés or restaurants – our resort team will be happy to provide some suggestions. In our Chalet Hotels, a full buffet breakfast (including hot option) is also served on the staff's day off.
Afternoon Tea: The traditional 'welcome home' after a day on the slopes will be laid out for you in your chalet or Chalet Hotel, ready for your return, every day except on the staff's one day off per week. A good cup of tea or coffee is the perfect accompaniment to a delicious slice of freshly home-baked cake and keeps hungry skiers happy until dinner is ready. Children's High Tea: In Chalets and Chalet Hotels with family guests, High Tea provides children under 13 years with a healthy menu, tailored more towards children's tastes and puréed food is available for infants on request. High Tea is at 5.30pm, and children do not join the main adult-only dinner. Families staying in one of our Chalet Hotels may choose to eat separately (High Tea at 5:30pm) or all dine together at the later adult dinner time if children who have received a child discount pay the meal upgrade charge at the time of booking only.
Dinner: A tasty and innovative, freshly cooked dinner will be prepared for you six nights per week by your Chalet Host - or by an experienced and professional chef in our larger chalets - and served with a choice of wines. Our four-course adult-only chalet dinners start with canapés and an apéritif, followed by an appetiser, main course and dessert, and completed by coffee with chocolates to round off your evening. Your choice of complimentary quality wines is unlimited during the meal service, and freshly chilled water is also of course always available.A special feature of our Chalet Hotels is a more extensive culinary experience for our guests. With the greater kitchen facilities of a hotel, our professional chefs are able to offer choices of menu at dinner, generally including lighter as well as more hearty options, and always a vegetarian choice for each course. Guests will be asked to choose their evening meals at breakfast for that evening from a varied daily selection. Vegetarian options are always on our 'Culinary Choice' menu in our Chalet Hotels, and are available in our chalets if you advise us in advance.

A neighborhood in Queens known as 'Little Manila' has one of the largest Filipino populations in the United States. The residents here say they don't know if their family and friends in the Philippines are dead or alive
Silverio Lendero who works at Phil Am foods, a Filipino grocery store says he hasn't heard from his family in the Philippines at all.
Every hour on the hour he is calling home to his wife and daughter hoping and praying that this time, he'll get through..
"I don't have any communication with them since last 3 weeks ago" He said. "I'm searching on the internet but nothing; I have no idea where they are now."
Grace Cajelas, another resident, lost contact with her sister a few days ago.
"We've been praying for them" she said. "I already cried."
Grace is sending money and a package hoping by some miracle her family receives it. She has no idea where they are.
Grace said that her family told her that the roof of our house was blown off by the wind
It's estimated that the typhoon affected more than four million people living in the central Philippines..
Community leaders said that they haven't coordinated any local relief efforts yet because they're still waiting for communication lines to open back up again.
With communication lines down, residents say all they can really do now is just wait.

BAY SHORE, N.Y. (AP) — A Long Island woman is accused of conning at least two elderly men out of half a million dollars in cash and vehicles.
Prosecutors say Lisa Ferkovich faces grand larceny as a hate crime charges.
Suffolk County Thomas Spota says it's the first time his office has alleged age as the basis for a hate crime.
Prosecutors say Ferkovich had served seven months in jail on similar charges in a case involving an 89-year-old Manhattan man.
Her attorney disputed the new charges. According to Newsday (http://bit.ly/1fAQjPA ), he said the alleged victims were cognizant of what was happening and there was no coercion. He says the Manhattan case was very different. He didn't elaborate.
An indictment on the new charges was to be unsealed Tuesday.

Large, bold chunky cubic zirconia engagement rings, like Natalie's Round CZ Vintage Ring, can be eye-catching when worn on long fingers, while smaller hands may look better with a more petite engagement ring like this Classic Sterling Silver CZ Solitaire Engagement Ring with CZ Wedding Band.

The shape of the cubic zirconia stone set into your engagement ring is a very important decision to make as well. Many women prefer cubic zirconia engagement rings with setting shapes like round cut, princess cut, or emerald cut. Some women like solitaire engagement rings with a single CZ stone like our Pear Cut Solitaire CZ Sterling Silver Ring while others prefer engagement rings with multiple stone settings, like this Past Present and Future 3 Stone Princess CZ Anniversary Ring. Some modern women prefer a colored stone surrounded by smaller diamond cubic zirconias, a popular celebrity engagement ring style, like in our Jennifer Lopez Inspired Pink CZ Engagement Ring. Blue engagement rings are another popular choice.
An engagement ring is the ultimate symbol of love, so it is extra important that you look carefully at cubic zirconia engagement rings to find the one that is perfect for you.

The Chicago-based company is hoping to piggy-back on the IPO of peer Workday Inc
JPMorgan declined to comment. SilkRoad and Piper Jaffray could not be reached for comment.

***All seam allowances are ¼".***
***Read the entire recipe before starting. By doing this, you will learn how to make both the play mat and the changing pad simultaneously.
***It may not be a bad idea to use a stronger 90/14 needle since it gets quite congested in the middle of the quilt towards the end. I used an 80/12 needle for both of these quilts, but on another play mat I made, I used an 80/12 needle and it broke when I got to the center of the quilt (when the quilt was almost complete), flew at me, and almost took my eye out. ...just sayin'!***
1. Cut the entire Jelly Roll in half, creating 80 (2 ½" x 22") strips.
2. Set out all your strips in a circular pattern to determine your sewing order. For the play mat, you will need approx. 68 strips. (You'll need to set aside 3 additional colored strips for your changing pad.)
4. Cut the strip diagonally lengthwise starting at the top right corner and cutting to ¼" over from the bottom left corner (I know this sounds confusing so I've taken a close-up photo below for a visual aid). This ¼" provides the necessary seam allowance for attaching the next strip. Make sure the selvage is always the widest part of your strip (this will be the outside edge of the quilt(s)) when you both cut and sew. On second thought, it would be pretty cool to put your selvages toward the center of your quilt so the middle could scream "Mo Mo, Mo Mo, Mo Mo!"
5. Here is what the first piece looks like after it's cut.
|The piece of the left will be used for the play mat,
the scrap on the right will be used for the changing pad.
9. Place the two pieces you've sewn together right side up on your cutting mat. Cut the second strip (on the right) as you did in step 4 (above), starting from the top right corner and cutting on the diagonal down the length of the strip to ¼" over from the bottom left corner of the second strip.
10. With right sides together, sew the third full strip to the second diagonal piece.
11. Press seams open.
12. Place the three pieces you've sewn together right side up on your cutting mat. Again, cut the third strip (the strip on the right side) as you did in Step 4, starting at the top right corner and cutting on the diagonal to the bottom left corner, leaving ¼" seam allowance intact.
|Make sure to always leave 1/4" in the center when cutting off your scrap strip.
15. After you have sewn the last strip to the first, press the seams open. As you will notice, the middle gets a little crazy. When pressing, don't worry about the middle so much. Let it go where it wants to go. Just make sure to press the seams open as well as you can on the outer portion of the quilt.
16. Your play mat will now look like this.
4. Press seams open.
5. Turn the two pieces you've sewn together right side up. If you'll notice, the strip on the right looks a little wavy. You'll want to straighten'er up.
7. Press seams open.
8. Turn the three sewn pieces right side up on your cutting mat. Trim the strip up as you did before removing any waviness. Make sure to leave your 1/4" seam allowance at the bottom.
12. Repeat this process all the way around the changing pad.
13. As with the play mat, when it is time to sew the final seam, connecting the last diagonally cut strip to strip 1, sew the seam starting from the middle and sewing toward the outer edge of the quilt.
15. Yeah! You're finished. Now pat yourself on the back and admire your beautiful new quilts!!

The JBL Clip is good for someone looking for a very compact, travel-friendly wireless speaker that's more affordable than the Jambox Mini.
While it doesn't offer much to distinguish itself from other Android tablets, the Galaxy Tab 4 Nook is a decent 7-inch tablet at an affordable price.
Despite some small flaws, the sturdily built Divoom Voombox Travel is a good budget choice for a wireless travel speaker.
Demoed at CES 2014, the Izzi Slim iPhone case is a fisheye, wide-angle, telephoto, and macro lens in one.
Some fun new shooting options for instantly telling stories with your photos and movies, and NFC for easy Wi-Fi setup make the N100 more interesting than the original.
The new ultracompact megazooms have some novel autoshooting capabilities and improved wireless functionality that may bring back smartphone snapshooters.

Caught in a swirl of gentle wind, the gemstone Willow leaves in this ring are turning pirouettes in a current of breezy sterling silver. Green cabochons of marquise-shaped malachite and aventurine twist and turn with infant blossoms of round peridot. The highly polished sterling silver foundation and shank feature fluid scroll designs that give the ring a graceful motion. Wonderfully comfortable and bold, this vibrant ring is a tribute to nature's awe-inspiring majesty. It measures 1" long x 7/8" wide. Made in America with gemstones from around the world.
Intricate stems of silverwork entwine with peridot, malachite, and green aventurine as a calm, cool wind tickles the boughs of the spellbinding willow tree.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

I've been trying to conceive for several months now and no luck. I'm 39. I've done some testing and met with a reproductive endocrinologist yesterday. It was quite upsetting. Basically he said there is very little chance of me conceiving on my own or with clomid/IUI. Gonadotropins would help but a) they cost thousands every month and b) he does not want to risk me having multiples given the previous pe. His recommendation is IVF with single embryo transfer (so as not to have multiples). The cost is over the top- just do not have that money. I looked at some foundations that award grants for this kind of thing, but they all had deadlines of this past Summer so I would have to wait another year which would make me even older. The RE said that even months count when you're this old. Do only the young or the wealthy get to have kids?
I am so upset and trying not to give up hope. Grieving the death of my daughter is bad enough, if I also have to grieve my dream of being a mother I don't know if I can take that.

Gnu Foods Flavor & Fiber Bars Banana Walnut give you 12 grams of seriously good-for-you soluble and insoluble fiber in one bar. That's nearly 50% of your Daily Value of fiber in a delicious and healthy bar! The Banana Walnut Gnu Bar is chock full of delicious bananas and chunky walnuts. The aroma and taste will remind you of fresh, home-baked banana bread.
About Gnu Foods
What is Gnu Foods?Gnu Foods is a small company that makes all natural, great-tasting foods that help address specific nutritional needs and health conditions. It was founded in 2004 with the introduction of their first product, the Gnu Bar, a high fiber bar that promotes regularity and heart health.
What is the company's philosophy?Real health makes us feel good inside and out, physically and emotionally. Returning to real health, feeling good the way nature intended—that's what Gnu Foods is all about.
Gnu Foods is dedicated to creating Food that Works.™ Processed foods tend to have all the "goodness" squeezed out of them and many contain additives which simply aren't what our bodies were designed for. The result: an obesity epidemic in America, even among our children, as well as soaring rates of heart disease, cancer, and Type 2 diabetes.
Gnu Foods is what your body was made for.
The GnuGun Foods' name was inspired by the African Gnu (pronounced "noo" or "nyoo").
The Gnu has an ox-like head, the mane of a horse, and the horns of a buffalo. It may look unusual from the outside, but inside, it functions beautifully. Flourishing in the grasslands and plains of Southern and Eastern Africa, the gnu lives in balance with nature.
At Gnu Foods, they create foods that help keep us in natural balance. Their foods are designed with you in mind, made with all natural ingredients every body needs. Since you were their inspiration, they hope you give Gnu Bars a try. And pretty soon, you'll be feeling like a "gnu" you.
