congrats!!! that is totally two pink lines!
You ladies are so supportive! I started freaking out this afternoon because I had a small amount of light blood tinged urine and some cramps but it went away and I think the cramps were gas which has been a problem the last couple of weeks. FX that I'm right. I'm going test again in the morning because I still can't believe it!!!!
Can't wait to see tomorrow's test!!!! Cramping and spotting close to AF is totally normal....NO STRESSING, Mama ;)

OUR MIRACLE BABY due October 8,2013...SURPRISE BFP JAN 30th one month after deciding to take a TTC break
I took another test this morning with FMU. It's another Dollar Tree test. I'm heading out in a bit to get frer or answer tests for tomorrow morning. So the 3 songlesare after 5 minutes and the other 2 are after 10. I took as comparison pic with yesterday's test. It seems light now that it's dried all the way. Today's test looked darker to me than yesterday's. I am thinking this is really it. It feels almost real now. The heartburn and gas plus dinner not tasting good, I finally know why!!!!!
Thank you all for the well wishes!

This mornings tests look beautiful! pinch yourself because this is real!!!
Can't wait to hear your beta levels
So exciting!!!!! The lines look awesome!
Just out of curiosity, what did your spotting look like the other day on 13 dpo?
Very tiny dots of red and what looked like a clot but VERY small. Like specks. And thank you all for the support. I am just too excited now. and I have a reason for the nausea have been having off and on! I'll take it though!!!
Thanks. Nausea never sounded so good, eh? :-). Congrats again!
I totally POAS on Saturday morning to calm my nerves. Well, no pics but I got 2 lines before the urine made it all the way through the window. And the test line is darker than the control line! Docs office is still being a pain but I am waiting for a call back since 8am this morning. My mom saw a pregnancy book on my coffee table Friday and I kind of lied. She asked if I was telling her I'm pregnant and I said no because I wasn't telling her but the book had been there for 2 weeks. DH doesnt want anyone to know until the doc confirms it. His sister guessed right away after I bit into a pickle on Friday and immediately spit it back out. She's a good secret keeper though. I'm hoping for a blood test without having to go in and then a referral to the ob. This is so nerve racking to a first-time mama!
Exactly! DH was home when I tested the first time. As soon as he left, I got right on here! No one else understands!

Step Two:
2. Find a photo that you will use for your layout. You're going to blend it into the top paper. I'll give you directions for the placement for one option and you can reverse it if you choose. So you'll want a photo about 4 x 6 and you'll want to place that in the center of your layout. Now drag it to the left to within an inch of the edge of the paper and then drag it up two inches. Now blend it into the paper. Keep that photo handy because we'll be using it in the next step too. Ask questions if you're not sure about blending... we'll all help! :)
Post your layout by Sunday, October 14, 2012 The next step will be posted Monday, October 15 2012

Real Name (first only)
: Paul
Current City:
San Francisco, California
Hard to say. I used to say Martinez, California but that towns now overrun by meth freaks. Id probably say Chico, California now.
Starving musician by night, Software Engineer by day
1) How did you choose your screen name?
Started as a joke. Then I realized the zombie plague is actually real and took it seriously. The government run media is lying to you, folks. You ever notice that when someone is shot continuously then finally shot in the head, the press always says gang murder?
2) Could you tell us a little about where you grew up and about your family?
I grew up all over the place. Lived mostly in the San Francisco Bay Area, but also lived in Texas, spent one summer in St. Louis, and four summers in Colorado. My family? Well, four boys total. My older brother speaks 7 languages fluently. My younger brothers - one tried out for Minor League baseball and ran with Carl Lewis and the youngest just graduated from UT.
3) Did you play in any sports or where you involved with any High School clubs and such?
Funny, I didnt play sports until after college. I was a skinny kid who liked the Packers and Heavy Metal music so just hung out with other Metalheads and watched the Packers on TV. Then around 24, I realized I had some skills and tried out for semi-pro football. Got both knees torn in the process. Should have stuck to Metal.
4) What is your fondest memory of your teenage years?
Completely censored. Sorry. I had a blast. Had more fun after college though.
5) What was your first job?
Door to door selling newspaper subscriptions. My first business was when I was about 16 or 17. I went door to door painting curbs. Made a lot of money for someone my age. I learned you can make a heck of a lot more doing our own thing than working for someone else.
6) What lead to your dedicated following of the Packers?
A complete fluke. I was born in Chicago and Dads a HUGE Bears fan. He went to UW though and made the mistake of introducing me to some of his friends. I saw the Green & Gold in a sports bar and fell in love. That was 1976. Never looked back.
7) Could you tell us one of your favorite memories of the Packers?
This is strange, but my fondest moments were actually when we werent that good. James Lofton was my favorite player ever and when we had Lofton, Jefferson, and Coffman all on the same team and Lynn Dickey was actually healthy (you think our OL is bad now, you must not have known about these years), that was fun to watch. Our D was horrendous, so our goal was simple - score lots of points. Probably the most magical moment of all was 1983 - beating the SB champs on MNF 48-47. No punts. That game was score after score. Funny thing, they had the best D in the NFL and they couldnt stop us.
I hate watching defensive games. I'd rather go to sleep. Unstoppable offenses are what make football fun to watch.
8 ) How did you find the PackersHome and what keeps you active on the site?
I came over from the site that should not be named. Lots of good people here. I love this site. Its really the people who keep me coming back.
9) What other sports teams do you follow?
There are other sports teams out there? Really? Just kidding. Ill follow my favorite Packers. Favre, Lofton, White, Green, etc. Thats it though. I did have a soft spot for Wallie Payton and cheered for him during their SB run. I could care less about any other sport and especially hate golf with a passion. Calling golf a sport is an example of creeping communism.
10) When youre not on PackersHome what could you likely be found doing with your spare time?
Listening to Metal, playing guitar. Im a bad boy. During the dot com days, used to ride around Los Angeles in limos and go from strip club to strip club. I've known several porn stars by their real names. My wife and I spent $500 on booze alone in a cruise.
Not any more. I learned to be responsible and now understand why football players go bankrupt shortly after they retire. During the dot com days, we thought the money would never stop. Thats when I learned that men in their 20s are usually stupid. We all did the same thing.
11) If you could have one moment being part of the Packer organization, what would it be?
It would be the 96 SB run. Favre that year eclipsed Lofton as my favorite player ever. The only thing is, I think the early 80s were more magical for me. Nothing against winning it all - it had everything to do with I was in Grad School and for once in my life, football wasnt the biggest thing on my mind. I fathered a little boy and was trying to make things worth with his mother. It all turned out good. We ended up getting married several years later.
But despite being busy, I still tried to make the sports bar to watch every Packers game. That one moment in the bar when the Patriots just scored and were 6 points away from tying, the Patriots fans all went nuts. Then Desmond Howard returned that KO for a TD. I swear to God, NOT ONE of them made a sound for the rest of the game. It was like shooting a zombie in the head with a shotgun. We all knew the game was over after that moment.
12) How many trips have you made to Lambeau?
Zero. I feel like an idiot now. I should have gone in the dot com days when I had money.
13) What is your worst fear?
I know this is generic and everyone else says it but it's true for me too - death of one of my family members. I can handle my own death. I can't handle any of theirs though.
14) What type of hobbies do you enjoy?
I'm starting to get to that age when I kind of have to work out or else. So I'm now a runner. I know. Lame. But I do it.
Still make music. Still go to see lots of shows in San Francisco every year. I follow a lot of small-time Metal and Goth/Industrial acts so can usually see most of my bands for under $20.
Love cooking. I take pride in being able to cook with pretty much anything. I go to the local Farmers' Market and buy random veggies. I don't even know what half of them are at first. I'll make it all taste good though. Never use a recipe either.
15) Whats your favorite food?
Ah, one of my favorite subjects. I love cooking and love even more to eat. Favorite cuisine though is a tie - Sushi or really good American steak.
16) Where are some of the places youve been, and where are some of your favorites.
The Caribbean, New Zealand, and yes, California. People who live here have no idea how gorgeous it is. What you need to do is go off-road with a high quality camera. Borrow one from a friend. Up and down the coast and even the interior, but I strongly prefer Northern California to SoCal.
17) What is one thing you've always wanted to do, but haven't done yet in your lifetime?
Shoot a rocket launcher at a tank. You asked.
18) If you could live anywhere where would it be?
Probably the Oregon coast. Almost as pretty as California but without the politics.
19) Name your favorite 5 Packers all time and explain the reason for one of them.
Brett Favre - 3 straight MVPs, helped bring us from the team old men would talk about in the past tense to a contender year after year. Young people have no idea how hard it was to be a Packers fan in the 70s and 80s. We were bad. So bad. I was stoked when we went 8-8.
Reggie White - Was Brett Favre on D
James Lofton - Had the most yards ever until a guy named Jerry Rice came along. Best deep threat to ever play the game.
Donald Driver - Great guy. Did you see that hug between Brett and Donald on MNF? That was the real deal, folks.
Aaron Rodgers & Charles Woodson - These guys are studs. Playmakers. Play to win. I love watching them both and wish the rest of the team would play with this fire (along with Driver).
20) Up to this date, what is you favorite PackersHome feature or memory?
Chats. We've had some interesting chats. I actually like it best when we go on about things other than football.
21) PM and post the next person to be interviewed.
Formo. I can't believe he hasn't been asked yet. Despite his allegiance, he's a great guy.
I think when there's enough will and aggression, there's no shortage of talent either.

Great read.
Shooting a rocket launcher at a tank sounds like great fun. I'd need someone to keep me upright, though, lol.
It's a shame that you lost all that money you made on that dot com bubble. It was doomed to dry up eventually in hindsight. At least it sounded like great, irresponsible fun when it lasted. Lol.
Great choice on the next interviewee.

~~ My Current AARs ~~The Sleeper - an EU3 Narrative
These Oranjes Are Not For Eating - Fun and Games in the Orange Free State
Favourite Comedy Victoria AAR: Q1 10 Q2 10 Q3 10 Q4 10 Q1 11 Best Character Writer: 28th Feb 10; 5th Jul 10 WritAAR of the Week: 6th Mar 10
For AARs past and present please visit my Ink Well
And here I am again. I've recently read Rome AARisen and wanted to choose it, but I figure BT has enough awards and his AAR is known enough. Then I wanted to nomite thrashing mad for History of the White Eagle, the first AAR I've ever read. But then again, thrash hasn't updated for a year and it's not sure when he will stop working on FTG.
So, for the WritAAR of the Week I choose..... AllmyJames and his AAR The Atheling Chronicle - A King without a Crown!
Allmy writes his AAR in a way that may be hard to read at first, but it's a very good example of "something else" than all the usual AARs. Not only I've found his AAR to be good to read, I've decided to do this because smaller AARs need more recognition. The story follows the saxon poster boy, Atheling in his journey across Europe to find a home for saxons like him, and eventually (That's what the readers hope for.) take back the homeland.
Congratulations AllmyJames!

The Grand Duchy of Hesse-Darmstadt: A History
Wow! Thanks Vesimir, for choosing me, and my humble tale, and for everyone else for their congratulations!
I'm glad that my first AAR effort has been appreciated. Hopefully it'll be the first of many, and my writing will only improve. The 'chronicler style' is one that I only devloped as I continued to write, and I'm happy that it stands out and makes the story distinctive. Having recently graduated college there are times when I wondered whether I really wanted to read any more medieval manuscripts (let alone make up my own ), but I'm pleased to report that it's been a fun experience so far from my side of the computer screen, and I hope it continues to be so! The story had also been in the back of my mind for a long time, and it feels great to finally get it out.
I'll now be spending an enjoyable week browsing the forums for AARs more worthy than mine.

Consumer Goods & Retailing: September research reports
Consumer goods are broken down into three sub-groups: durable consumer goods, non-durable consumer goods, and consumer services. Durable goods include items that typically last over a significant time span, and as such they often have a higher price point due to their longevity and process of production for these goods. Furniture, cars, modular homes, and/or large household appliances are all examples of possible durable consumer goods. Non-durable consumer goods are produced and subsequently purchased for the intended purpose of being used immediately or very soon in the future. Non-durable goods typically have a longevity that ranges from mere minutes up to three years. Examples of non-durable consumer goods include gasoline, food items, certain apparel items, and/or beverages. Consumer services are in-tangible actions or items that are often created and used at the same time. Consumer services may include landscaping, hair salon services, or a variety of repair services.

Nature's Designs Inspire Research Into New Light-Based Technologies
"Nature has developed, very cleverly, some lessons on how to create the features that we desire in optical design," said Joseph Shaw, director of the Optical Technology Center at Montana State University. "As we explore surfaces and structures at the nanoscale, we'll discover them."
NASA's Chandra X-Ray Observatory Finds Planet That Makes Star Act Deceptively Old
A planet may be causing the star it orbits to act much older than it actually is, according to new data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory.
Detecting Single Proteins By Their Shadows
For some time the field of optical sensing has been dominated by fluorescent marker methods. By eliminating these markers, however, a new method from the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light might significantly advance this field of research.

4 Electronic Design Requirements Of The System-Integrated Soldier
Perhaps most famously portrayed in Robert Heinlein's Starship Troopers (1959), the idea of the "future soldier" has been around for decades. As rehashed in countless science fiction films and video games, the stereotypical future soldier is equipped with a protective exoskeleton, enhanced sensory equipment, seamless communication systems, and advanced weaponry. While the concept once seemed implausible, there are many real-world projects under way focused on realizing those seemingly fictitious warfighter capabilities — by integrating a plethora of diverse electronic subsystems into a cohesively operational suit.
The Top 5 Technologies From DSS 2014
With more than 450 companies at this year's event and only three days to explore, it was an almost overwhelming task to try and take in all of the technology on display. Regardless, I did my best, and here is my list of the top five most exciting technologies I caught at the show.
Spectral Sensing Kit For Developers
At Optics and Photonics 2014, Bill DeCosta with Ocean Optics introduced his company's new STS developer kits. Watch the video for an up close look as well as some in depth information on the STS spectrometer.

Key Issues Of Optical Thin Film Coating Fabrication
The design process for optical thin film coatings is well-defined and straightforward in modern times, and it is highly facilitated by computer assistance. While almost any coating can be designed, not every design can be fabricated. This article addresses some of the key issues that arise when fabricating optical thin film coatings and offers insight into how to overcome those challenges.
Rolling Shutter Vs. Global Shutter
Two image sensor types widely used in cameras for microscopy are scientific grade Charge Coupled Devices (CCD) and scientific Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductors (CMOS or sCMOS). There is a number of similarities between the two technologies, but one major distinction is the way each sensor reads the signal accumulated at a given pixel. This technical article explains how the differences in readout modes impact the exposure timing, illumination, and triggering of cameras and light sources in microscopy experiments.
Introduction To Fiber Laser Marking
While laser marking systems employ exactly the same principle as burning leaves with a magnifying glass, the process is slightly more complicated. Instead of sunlight being passed through a simple lens, laser light is passed through a more complex lens — an f theta lens. And, while sunlight consists of many colors or wavelengths, laser light has the property of being monochromatic. This article provides an introduction to fiber laser marking and explains the three most important settings that can affect how a part is marked.
Camera Requirements For 3D Metrology
As the objects to inspect/measure in high-tech manufacturing become smaller, higher-resolution cameras with better spatial resolution can improve accuracy and precision. This does require a high-quality machine vision camera design, however, or what is now called a metrology camera. 3D measurements in particular pose increasing demands on camera performance and reliability. This article discusses critical parameters, depending on the specific measurement.
Enhanced Protein Fluorescence Yields Better Neuronal Observations
Studying neural activity is a delicate process that historically has been done using microelectrodes. While observing whole networks of neurons in a living organism has proven elusive, a new method developed by researchers from the California Institute of Technology (CalTech) may make this type of work possible.
L-3 Applied Optics Center (AOC) Completes Large Optic Coating For MMT
L-3 Corporation's Applied Optics Center (AOC) recently completed the coating of a large optic for the 6.5 m MMT.
Sierra-Olympic Introduces LWIR Chassis Camera With Continuous Zoom & Digital Signal Processing
Sierra-Olympic Technologies, Inc., supplier of infrared (IR) and thermal imaging components, cameras, and systems solutions for advanced thermal imaging applications, introduces the Vinden CZ 640, the second model in the series of uncooled, continuous-zoom thermal chassis cameras.
Uncovering The Forbidden Side Of Molecules
Researchers at the University of Basel have succeeded in observing the "forbidden" infrared spectrum of a charged molecule for the first time. These extremely weak spectra offer perspectives for extremely precise measurements of molecular properties and may also contribute to the development of molecular clocks and quantum technology.
From Light Into Matter, Nothing Seems To Stop Quantum Teleportation
Physicists at the University of Geneva (UNIGE) have succeeded in teleporting the quantum state of a photon to a crystal over 25 kilometres of optical fibre.

Artisan: Ana Art Group
The fair-trade network Handmade Expressions started working with the Ana Art Group after being contacted by a young girl who explained that her family and members of the community make jewelry similar to what was sold by Handmade Expressions. She expressed concerns that they were being mistreated by their current employers, and hoped that Handmade Expressions could bring some fair employment and hope for a better future. After meeting with the family and representatives from the community, the network was reminded of the reason why they continue to support fair trade: to provide help to those who need it the most.
Ana Art Group is proof positive that big change starts small. What began as a small and primarily female artisan group working from tiny, congested work spaces in Old Delhi, is now a large community with an increase in education opportunities and improvements in health and environmental impacts to working conditions.
In three years, with the help of Handmade Expressions, the Ana Art Group has grown from 15 members to 100. Wages have also increased with family income about 20-25% higher than standard for artisan work in their area, and allow flexible work schedules and paid time-off. The increase in wages and community growth is due to the sustainable and continuous work the artisans have received, allowing them to fulfill basic requirements for a decent standard of living.
In regional communities, children commonly enter the work force after the fifth grade to help support the family. The success of the Ana Art Group and counseling provided by SETU has allowed the community to keep their children, boys and girls alike, in school, raising the average literacy rates of the entire community. Seeing the promises of a better life through their children's education, the artisans have even arranged night classes for themselves. For the first time, members of the group are attending college, signifying a huge cultural shift in attitude towards the female's role in the community.

From WENN.com
Amin, who features on MTV's Buckwild programme, was busted in the early hours of Monday (11Feb13) in West Virginia after she was allegedly caught with heroin and prescription painkiller oxycodone on her person.
She is facing two counts of drug possession with intent to deliver. Bail has been set at $200,000 (£125,000).
Buckwild centres on the lives of nine fun-loving young adults just out of high school in rural Sissonville, West Virginia.

Members of the Highland Park Police Special Response Team and the Wayne County Sheriff's Department removed bags of evidence, including paperwork and sex toys, on Thursday from the World Wide News, a longtime adult bookstore on Woodward Avenue that drew quite a crowd every day."The place opens at eight o'clock, and it's packed by 8:30 with nothing but men," said Ali Morgan. "The majority of them were like businessmen, ties, suits, company vehicles."Morgan said he worked security there over the last two years and saw all kinds of wild things, but claimed he did not know anything illegal was taking place until the raid."These tokens, you get $3 worth of these, and then you can go in a booth, your own individual booth," Morgan explained. "Once the customers get in the back, we have no idea what they're doing back there, but kind of it's like implied."Morgan believes the illegal sex was between customers, but police said their six month investigation found prostitution was also taking place.Two employees, a man and a woman, were taken in for questioning, but so far there have been no arrests.Police said it is a well kept secret who actually owns the business, and they are working to figure that out. We have learned the building is owned by a Chicago-based company called Capital News Agency. When we called the Chicago office, no one wanted to comment.During our interview, we saw men, who appeared to be customers, driving by to see if the shop was closed. Condemned signs now hang on the building, which is located less than a block from a high school, a Boys and Girls Club and several churches.Police said complaints from neighbors prompted the investigation, and the illegal activity may have been taking place for as long as ten years.

Tazo® Zen™ Full Leaf Tea
A harmonious blend of green tea with lemongrass & spearmint.
Tasting Notes
Earthy, lemony, minty, sweet.
Enjoy this with:
A fruit scone and a sense of harmony.
- How to Brew
- Green Tea
- Ingredients
- Did You Know?
For Best Brewing
- Bring fresh, filtered water to a boil at 175F (80c) and allow to cool slightly.
- Pour 8 fl oz (236 ml) of water over the sachet in your cup.
- Let it steep for 3 minutes. Wait patiently for perfection.
The liquor of a green tea is typically a green or yellow color, and flavors range from toasty, grassy (pan-fired teas) to fresh and streamed greens (steamed teas) with mild astringency.
Zen is a school of Mahāyāna Buddhism that teaches meditation and direct experience as the path to wisdom and enlightenment.
- Product Details
Find your inner green, then play at least nine holes.
Through the screened front door, zingy lemongrass and spritely spearmint coax contemplative pan-fired green teas to come play. Calmly, lemon verbena opens the door and invites them all to a cup of tea.

Whenever someone learns that I have a blog they say, "oh, you must keep a diary too, huh?" Do you get that too? Let me see. Writing one's heart's desires confidentially versus broadcasting useless opinions to the world? Same-same?
The truth is, I'm a hopeless diary keeper. I just don't trust myself to be the only reader of my innermost thoughts. When unchecked by others, I lie, I cheat, I steal other people's good stuff. I've done it before. I was given a diary when I was an early teen and it had the date stamped on every page. The pressure. By the time I got the diary it was already mid-Feb so what was I going to do with all those blank date-stamped pages?
I made up a life and pretended that it was mine, that's what. Sadly, this was no outlandishly crazy and wonderful existence. Not for me rides on wild ponies in the desert and cocktails at dawn... no, I was much more inclined to pretend that I had blonde hair, was short and petitie, good at maths and played the guitar. A big Sweet Dreams-style yawn, but no less a lie for its dullness.
My sister called this journal The Liary.
The truth is (and this is the truth, trust me), I did this sort of thing for real when I was in my very early twenties and a drunken night at a bar turned me into a lie-whore who pretended to be a med student at uni because I was embarrassed that I was actually just a waitress at a function centre at the time. I kept up the lie for months. I don't even know why it was so important to me that people thought I was a brainiac rather than just a maniac. I made up a boyfriend who was a model too... so it was obviously important at the time that not only was I a smart one, I was also hot enough to attract a dumb boyfriend.
I kept a journal during those ill-fated months too. It was Liary The Sequel because embarrassingly I even wrote to myself that I was a med-student with hot boyfriend. For shame. I clearly remember the desperation to be different, to be other than myself, that drove me to lie like this. I think most teenagers / young adults have been there. I try always to remember what that self-loathing, despairing feeling was like and consequently I have always been indulgent with both my time for and manners towards angst-ridden teens.
One of my great life lessons towards accepting myself for just being me was when it all went pear-shaped and I had to explain to some of my dearest friends just why I had made this stupid stuff up. At the time I had no explanation (but see above, perceptive reasoning kicked in later). Most importantly, my friends were at a loss to explain it also. They were shocked beyond belief. But not for the reasons I dreaded. It wasn't the fact that I had lied to their faces that shocked them so much, it was that they couldn't believe that I didn't realise that I was good enough without the lies. I was good enough.
Like I said, a huge life lesson and one that has kept me truthful and grounded ever since. I've never lied with quite such bravado again. Just a little white one here and there. To stop the whining or to save face. Ironically.

TOWN OF JACKSON, WI (WTAQ) - A consultant is telling the state Department of Natural Resources repairs need to be made to the eastern Wisconsin pipeline which spilled gasoline last July.
That consultant says an inspection found nine sections of pipe were degraded where they cross the Jackson Marsh Wildlife Area.
They report suggests they need to be reinforced with a metal sleeve to eliminate the risk of another spill on the publicly-owned recreation and hunting land.
Last year's mishap dumped an estimated 54,600 gallons of gas in the Town of Jackson.
A welded seam gave way on the pipe in a farm field.
The repair project planned for Jackson Marsh has been approved by the state.

Thanks for your thoughts and concern. I'm back at work now for the first time since Tues. We have power at my office, but I still don't have power at home. With no TV or computer, I feel completely out of touch. I'm told it could be another 1-2 weeks before we have power again. I can't wait to take a HOT shower. Fortunately, it has been relatively cool here w/out AC - highs in the low 90s, lows in the mid 60s.
We suffered minimal structural damage, but have a huge mess to clean up - wet, molding carpet and furniture and lots of big trees down. In addition to hundreds of limbs, my parents lost about 20 trees a minimum of 2.5 feet in diameter. My husband and I only lost 8 big trees, and none of them hit the house. The wind was clocked at 130 mph, and I felt our house shake three times. We live in one of the mandatory evacuation zones, but we opted to stay. I have a lot of confidence in our house now. I'm afraid that Iansmom and Hannasmom got hit worse than me. From what I understand, their counties are without water and sewer. The schools here remain closed and I've heard that it will be a minimum of two weeks before classes resume.
At least three women went into labor during the storm and the national guard was dispatched to retrieve them. If I were pg, I would have evacuated or at least spent the night at the hospital.
Again, thanks for your concern. I imagine we'll hear from the other Alabama and NW Florida members as soon as power and internet connections are restored.

Tuesday night I was alone in the house for dinner and not really in the mood to cook. I still have a stocked freezer with 2 cup portions of frozen soups and other easy ingredients I could throw together, but nothing sounded good. Last week (before I started the $3.33 a day) I scored 6 green avocados for 66 cents a piece! What a deal. As soon as they were JUST soft, I put them in the fridge. I pulled two of them out and made this delicious guacamole with garlic, shallots, lime juice, cilantro, jalapenos and chili powder. I toasted up a pita bread and ate the entire batch on the 60 calorie pita along with an apple. Now, this was quite the decadent dinner.. I must have needed something in the avocados.
I really do not want this blog to turn into a rice/bean and veggie blog due to my finances, so I will be really trying to put a spin on these classic ingredients.
Speaking of finances, I have received several email asking me WHY I am doing this? One person even had an opinion that I was being a "martyr" by CHOOSING to do this.
I should clarify. While, I am very excited to be doing this, it was born out of NECESSITY. I LOST MY JOB IN DECEMBER. I AM LIVING OFF OF UNEMPLOYMENT AND CHILD SUPPORT. I literally can BARELY AFFORD the $100 dollars a month for food.
That being said, even if I found a great paying job tomorrow, I might still do this because it is forcing me to think outside of the box. For instance, I went to the store today and spent another $4.50 on arugula and 2 lbs brussels sprouts! The organic baby arugula was on sale for $2.50 for 5 oz. The non-organic was also $2.50, but yielded 7 oz. I debated for a minute in my head, but decided on the organic arugula. I am not just jumping to the cheapest thing out there. There were some gorgeous collards for $1.29/bunch but I passed on them because I have spinach and kale at home. This is more than enough for us. In the past, I definitely would have bought those collards. It felt really good just to walk out of there with two items.
I'm jumping all over the place here, but last nights dinner (no pic) was leftover dahl and veggies from the freezer. I spent the night at my old house cuz my ex was out of town (had to be there for the dog instead of the kids being here).. I also brought over some brown rice and 1 cup of leftover black beans from the freezer. I used leftover brown rice and the black beans along with some spices and oats to made 4 large burgers to leave in their fridge. I also brought 2 avocados over since I want them to goto use.
Just a reminder: This week and next week, I am only spending $10.00 a week because I have such a stocked pantry.
Spent this week: $6.08
$3.92 left.
New week starts Monday.

Comments On Mar 23, 2014:I bought this thinking it was a low cost manufactured product but would fit the same. Well, the right side main seal was too small for crank, the right side case cover gasket leaked around the front guide. And the worst was the head gasket material failed and coolant started leaking into the cylinder. The coolant leak got bad enough that it killed the bike on the track. I went back and replaced all these with OEM parts and all is now good.

Comments On Jan 04, 2014:I've used Tusk stuff in the past and have been pleasantly surprised with the quality versus price. In this case, However, every parting surface on the engine, where I used a tusk gasket, leaked as if the bike where designed to strain oil into the environment. And before someone says 'well, he probably didn't install them correctly" I'm an aircraft mechanic and the only guy I know that owns a torque wrench that reads down to 8ft/lbs. Although, I can only claim to be so smart as my initial assessment of the product was that upon comparing the Tusk gaskets to the OEM gaskets the quality difference was obvious and profound, I should have stopped there. Had to install new cases do to a chain break and was trying to get the bike back together prior to this weeks race. needles to say after all the break neck work to rebuild the motor and rear suspension i missed the race and am now out of the points race this year. Don't skimp with these gaskets you will be sorry.

Comments On Oct 18, 2013:I bought the full kit only for the clutch gasket for the moment. It don't stop leaking, I have to buy another one. I'm not sure if I'll buy tusk gaskets again. Hope I will not have this problem with the others.

Comments On Sep 16, 2013:was working great, no leaks and everything fit great...last time I rode the head gasket gave out and leaked coolant into the cylinder...all other gaskets in the set working fine. I replaced head gasket with Factory gasket, hope that will hold up better.

Canada stopped producing their penny in 2012 but the U.S. penny may not be going away any time soon. One reason Canada stopped making pennies was because of the high cost of producing them. The U.S. Mint reports it costs 1.99 cents to produce a penny. In 2011 the cost was 2.41 cents per penny. To help reduce costs, the composition of pennies has changed over time. Years ago they were made of 100% copper. Today's pennies are composed of mostly zinc and only 2.5% copper.
Some economists are saying it's time for the United States to abandon the penny. They say several countries have reported no major problems after eliminating their penny or equivalent coins, but others are saying not so fast. One study claims eliminating the penny would cost consumers between $2 billion and $4 billion every two years because prices would be rounded up. Also, nickels would be in higher demand and they cost even more to produce. The U.S. Mint reports the cost of producing a nickel is more than eleven cents. Some say small charities that rely on penny drives would suffer and the zinc industry would be hurt by eliminating the penny.
By the way, if you think it would be a good idea to melt your pennies and nickels and sell the metal for profit, keep in mind there are laws against doing that.

Phiten Titanium Necklace X30 Edge 22" (55cm) Blue
Phiten - Titanium Necklace X30 Edge 22 inch Blue product is permeated with Aqua-Titanium. Using their original Phild Process technology, Titanium is dissolved into water and permanently embedded into the material. The Titanium Necklace X30 Edge is permeated with 30 times the concentration of Aqua-Titanium. The increased benefits will help alleviate discomfort and promote relaxation in the body.
Simply by wearing these products, your body can feel relaxed and refreshed. Their necklaces are an indispensable item for relieving stress and fatigue in our modern lives. The wide variety of colors and designs brings an element of fun, and is just one of the many reasons for their popularity. In all aspects of life – from everyday activities to athletics – their products can help maximize your potential energy and strength. This is why so many top athletes use Phiten products.
Traditionally, titanium is a lightweight and insoluble metal used in medical devices due to its non-corrosive and hypoallergenic properties. These properties make titanium an ideal medium for Phiten's technology. However, titanium in its solid state is not suitable for high-intensity, exercise-specific applications, which led Phiten to develop Aqua-Titanium. In this application, minute particles of titanium suspended in water act as carriers for Phiten's technology. Aqua-Titanium is then utilized as a dye and embedded into fabric, spreading the effect of Phiten technology to the users. Aqua-Titanium is widely incorporated in their fabric necklaces and apparel, permeating each strand of fiber and becoming a permanent component of the finished product.
Aqua-Titanium X30 is 30 times more concentrated than standard Aqua-Titanium. The higher concentration of Aqua-Titanium amplifies Phiten technology to meet the grueling demands of today's high performance athlete. "X30" indicates the increased concentration of Phiten's Aqua-Titanium solution, and does not necessarily mean that the effect of product itself is 30 times stronger.

These products may look very similar to genuine Phiten products, but have not gone through their official "PHILD PROCESS".
Please make sure to purchase only from Phiten Authorized Dealers. Genuine Phiten products are specially crafted to improve your body's energy flow. Do not waste your money on counterfeit goods that will not provide any energizing benefits.
