The University of Wisconsin-Superior's Lake Superior Research Institute is a finalist for $971,714 in federal funding to work with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources in monitoring the condition of coastal wetlands, tributaries and near-shore waters of Lake Superior in northwestern Wisconsin.
Money for the project is part of the $161 million federal Great Lakes Restoration Initiative available through the Environmental Protection Agency. GLRI grants will fund projects that address the most important Great Lakes priorities, includinghabitat and wildlife protection and restoration, coastal wetland assessment,reducing toxic contaminants, restoring the Great Lakes Areas of Concern, protecting beaches and beachgoers, keeping out invasive species and reducing polluted land-based runoff.
LSRI is among 271 finalists invited by the EPA to submit final applications for funding. Final word on the grant is expected this summer.
"We're excited about this because little monitoring has been done on the Lake Superior coast," said LSRI researcher Amy Eliot. "The DNR has wanted to conduct an assessment of the Lake Superior basin for years but funding has not been available."
The three-year grant will enable LSRI scientists to work with the DNR to beginimplementing the agency's Lake Superior Near-Shore Monitoring Plan.
Eliot said LSRI scientists will establish 71 permanent monitoring sites for collecting biological, physical, and chemical data. Information collected from the sites will enable scientists to take a long-term look at the ecological condition of the coast so they can prioritize problems and manage and protect the resource.
Scientists will set up 17 monitoring stations in coastal wetlands and 34 stations in tributary streams. Most are located in Douglas and Bayfield counties, with remaining sites located in Ashland and Iron counties.
Scientists will use the stations to analyze water quality as well as observe the number, variety and health of invertebrates, plants, amphibians and birds. That information will be compiled into an index that reveals the overall "health" of a wetland or river and will be comparable to other work going on in the Great Lakes. The work will include analyzing the land cover in the watersheds around the estuaries.
LSRI researchers already are familiar with this type of research. Eliot and researcher Sue O'Halloran have spent the past several years working with coastal wetland health indicators developed by the Great Lakes Coastal Wetland Consortium, a group of scientists around the Great Lakes.
As part of the project, LSRI scientists also will establish monitoring stations in 20 near-shore areas of Lake Superior. Some stations will be locatednear manmade structures such as breakwalls while others will be located near the mouths of high-quality streams.They will monitor organisms that live in the lake water and bottom sediment and analyze the stomach contents of larval fish to gain a better understanding of the food web.
Eliot said LSRI scientists hope to begin the work this summer. Much of this year's effort will go toward planning but some stream monitoring is expected to occur. Field work will hit full stride over the next two years.
"It will involve a lot of field work, starting in April and Mayof 2011 with amphibian and bird monitoring and going through late summer and early fall doing invertebrate, plant and water quality monitoring in the estuaries," Eliot said. Winter will be spent analyzing samples and sharing data with other groups working around the Great Lakes.
Eliot and colleagues expect to give a public presentation on the results of the project in spring 2013.
The Lake Superior Research Institute conducts environmental research and provides environmental education and public information for the Great Lakes region. It is funded primarily through grants and other external funding. Scientists and staff members associated with LSRI possess a wide range of expertise in chemistry, biology, toxicology, microbiology, geology, statistics, database management, data processing, computer programming, and geographic information systems. Many UW-Superior students participate in LSRI research as research assistants or interns.

By Scooter on 3/5/2014 Scooter would recommend this product to a friend Awesome product. The tds meter and the pressure gauge are a must have. Spend the extra money and purchase a unit that has these gizmos installed. Quality built, top shelf ro/di units. Worth every Pennie. Thanks BRS! easy set-up By ryan on 3/2/2014 ryan would recommend this product to a friend great product and easy to use excellent By gbr on 2/28/2014 gbr would recommend this product to a friend Easy to set up and use. Great ro/di unit. Awesome! By Bageezus on 2/27/2014 Bageezus would recommend this product to a friend I love this unit. I almost picked up the standard addition and I am so glad I did not. The pressure gauge and tds meter make everything so much easier. Great RO/DI. Great value, great price! By Xavi on 2/26/2014 Xavi would recommend this product to a friend After using only a tap water filter for two years and having constant algae problems I finally bought a RO/DI. Easy to use. My algae problems are starting to clear up. Great first ro/di system.... By JEFF on 2/25/2014 JEFF would recommend this product to a friend This is my first ro/di system and for the money, I don't think any other company can beat the quality and value of this one. Easy to set up and use. I mounted mine in my garage above my washing machine. I purchased a y fitting to split the water connection between my washer and the ro system. Connected the red line to the y fitting using the included hose bib connector. Black line went to the washer waste pipe. Couldn't be easier. Also, the inline TDS meter makes it easy to monitor your filters and the water quality coming out. Thanks BRS.. hands down best rodi unit ive used By swede1988 on 2/24/2014 swede1988 would recommend this product to a friend This unit works great! It does what its suppose to do. It looks good and comes with great upgrades. Hands down best unit I've used. Excellent Unit at a Great Price By Britt on 2/21/2014 Britt would recommend this product to a friend I purchased this unit about a week ago and so far I am very impressed. The unit came well packaged and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. It was very simple to hook up and produces 0 TDS water. I'm looking forward to seeing how it will perform once I start filling up my new 210 gallon tank. I would highly recommend BRS and this product to anyone. Excellent ro/di unit! Arrived quickly and well packaged! By FishysPlace on 2/18/2014 FishysPlace would recommend this product to a friend I purchased my rodi unit in April of 2013. That's when I began my saltwater addiction. Lol. I ordered the unit based on lots of research in many forums and threads to find the "right" unit for me. My unit arrived well packaged and very promptly! I think I ordered on a Monday morning and got it by Wednesday evening! It was way faster then I expected. It's pretty big if you've never owned a filtration unit but it fits under the kitchen sink! The connections worked easily with my current (outdated) faucet. My water is around 80 psi and I let the filter run for about 30 mins before I began filling my 10 gallon. Well, it took a while before the filter got "wore" in but now I think I can get a gallon in about 10-15 mins. I am about to move into a new home and I already have a 75 gallon tank ready to get cycled as soon as I can move in! I have processed over 150+ gallons and my di- resin is about 1/4-1/3 brown/discolored. I wanted to wait to review this product until after some long term usage. BRS has excellent customer service! Don't be afraid to call them as they will take the time to answer your questions/concerns! Best RODI By Bradley on 2/16/2014 Bradley would recommend this product to a friend I have had this unit for over a year now and am very pleased with the performance of it. Can't say enough about this unit and BRS. Just a few weeks ago I was changing the sediment filter out and ended up braking the nipple that connects the canisters together at 2:30 a.m. In the morning, after emailing BRS about it they emailed me back first thing in the morning and explained that this was not under warranty since it was a year old, but they were still going to send me a replacement nipple for free...... WOW! This surprised me because I really didn't ask for them to replace it but rather just what I needed and if they sold that part ( I couldn't find it at first) this is what I have come to expect from BRS because they are such a outstanding company! Great unit, simple install By Paul on 2/16/2014 Paul would recommend this product to a friend Great unit. It was a simple install. There was no leaks from the factory. I didn't read the TDS coming out of the wall, but post RO it hovered around 4-6 TDS and post DI, it read 0. Looking forward to now using nice RODI water instead of conditioned tap water. I do suggest purchasing the tube cutter recomend. You will need to purchase other plumbing parts to integrated this system, Everything the hubby wanted By Shannon on 2/15/2014 Shannon would recommend this product to a friend This was a birthday gift for my husband. It took a few days longer than what seems to be the norm, to get here, but that was due to the winter storm, I'm sure. It did get here the day before his birthday. Whew! As I know little about these, I will say that my husband LOVES it. It was, and has, everything he wanted in a RODI system. He has it all ready to go in the laundry room. Waste water dispenses through the drain. It produced much faster than we both expected. What I DO know is "packaging". The packaging was impressive. I have NEVER ordered anything online so well-packaged, and put together! It was practically ready to go, out of the box! Thank you, for making me a hero! Lol. I know it's early, yet, but I will give it five stars, at this time! :) Write Your Own Review You're reviewing: BRS 4 Stage Value PLUS RO/DI System - 75GPD *How do you rate this product? *Would you recommend this product to a friend?

New Guidelines Tell Doctors to Harangue Patients About Weight
The medical profession has issued new guidelines for fighting the nation's , and they urge physicians to be a lot more aggressive about helping patients drop those extra pounds.
Doctors should calculate your body mass index, a weight-to-height ratio. And if you need to lose weight, they should come up with a plan and send you for counseling.
"We recognize that telling patients to lose weight is not enough," said Dr.
The good news? By next year, most insurance companies are expected to cover counseling and other obesity treatments, following in the steps of the
More than a third of U.S. adults are obese, and that's been the case since the middle of the last decade. Officials define someone with a BMI of 30 or higher as obese. A 5-foot-9 person would be obese at 203 pounds.
Doctors are well aware that excess weight can trigger diabetes and lead to heart disease and other health problems. Yet surveys have shown that only about a third of obese patients recall their doctor talking to them about their BMI or counseling them about weight loss.
The guidelines were released this week by a group of medical organizations that include the
They come amid a spate of important developments in the fight against obesity.
Last year, the
Yet many people have been on their own when it comes to slimming down, left to sift through the myriad diets and exercise schemes that are promoted for weight loss. And most doctors have little training in how to help their obese patients, other than telling them it's a problem and they need to do something about it.
"I feel for these guys," said Dr.
The guidelines advise doctors to:
— At least once year, calculate patients' BMI, measure their waists and tell them if they are overweight or obese.
— Develop a weight-loss plan that includes exercise and moderate calorie-cutting.
— Consider recommending weight-loss surgery for patients with a BMI of 40 or for those with a BMI of 35 who also have two other risk factors for heart disease such as diabetes or high blood pressure.
— Refer overweight and obese patients who are headed for heart problems to weight-loss programs. Specifically, discuss enrolling them in at least 14 face-to-face counseling sessions over six months with a registered dietitian, psychologist or other professional with training in weight management.
Web or phone-based counseling sessions are considered a less effective option.
More than year ago, the
She said the doctor smiled and told her: "There's a lot of programs out there. But really, you just have to eat less."
"It just devastated me," LeBlanc recalled. "He was saying, 'It's all in your mind.' I was thinking, 'If I could do that, don't you think I would have done it by now?'"
She changed doctors and has lost 40 pounds from her 5-foot-4 frame since May after getting into an intensive Pennington weight-loss program that includes counseling sessions.
Doctors "need to get the message," ''LeBlanc said. "Just telling someone you need to push the plate away is not going to work for everyone."

Every summer for the last 6 years I've taken my dogs to Glen Highland Farm on a Canine Country Getaway. The property was built around people to enjoy with their dogs. Stay onsite in a tent, cabin or RV and enjoy nature outside your door. Their website is http://www.canineoutdooradventures.com - highly recommended!!!

You won't find a dog-friendlier place than Daggett Lake Campsites in the southern Adirondack mountains. A weekend in June dedicated to dogs (Daggett Dog Days), a "dog beach" for swimming, separate from the "people beach," hiking trails all the way around the lake that take you to heights with breathtaking views. Campsites, RV sites, camper cabins, and cottages--all dog-friendly. http://www.daggettlake.com. Check it out. You won't regret it.

Why is it that well spend MONTHS working hard to look decent in a bathing suit, only to return from a weeks vacation 10 pounds heavier?
I know, vacations are
to be indulgent. But all of your hard work doesn't have to go to waste either! I take off for my honeymoon next Sunday, and definitely don't want to backtrack on my fitness! So...I thought we all could use some healthy travel tips!!
Eat before the Airport
You never know when youll end up delayed, and its a good plan to avoid having to hit the fast food court. (plus, it will save you money!)
Drive Past the Drive-Thru
If you're driving, plan where and when you'll be stopping for meals before hitting the road. For gas stops, pay at the pump and go! Don't go inside to be tempted by snacks! Try to use rest areas when potty breaks and to get out and stretch.
Beware of Buffets!
When eating out, obviously take time looking over the menu to make healthy choices, but--it's the buffets that really can get ya! Start by using a smaller plate;it'llencourage smaller portions. Also aim to fill up on as many fruits and veggies as possible. Then, just grab a small bite of the more indulgent dishes.
Make it an Active Vacation
Some of the most rejuvenating trips are ones that include lots of physical activity! Sure, lying around on the beach is nice, but mix in time swimming or playing beach volleyball!
Walk to do your sight seeing! Research biking or hiking tours in the area.
Book hotels that have fitness accommodations and don't be afraid to do your own body weight exercises right there in your hotel room.
Plan Workouts First Thing in the Morning
Even if it's only 15 minutes to break a sweat--you'll feel better all day long. The later in the day you put it off, the greater chance it won't happen at all!

Barry Schwartz:
Our loss of wisdom
Barry Schwartz makes a passionate call for "practical wisdom" as an antidote to a society gone mad with bureaucracy. He argues powerfully that rules often fail us, incentives often backfire, and practical, everyday wisdom will help rebuild our world.

In today's uncertain economy, the job market is an increasingly more difficult thing to break into. A high school diploma is no longer sufficient to guarantee decent and stable employment. Instead, post secondary or technical training is often necessary to gain entry into a challenging, exciting, and well-paying career. For example, the field of ultrasound technology presents an exciting and well paying career opportunity.
To become an ultrasound technician, however, like many other careers today, you require some degree of post secondary training. Ultrasound technician training typically consists of a course at an accredited school or institute that usually consists of a two year associates program. One exception to this standard is the fact that registered nurses can apply for an ultrasound technician program that lasts for only one year. Those looking to follow this exciting career can request information from accredited radiology technician schools throughout the country.
Ultrasound technician education will focus on the procedures involved in the conducting and reading of ultrasounds, in addition to the safety requirements of the field. The prospects of a job will rely largely on the reputation and accreditation that the school you attended has garnered over the years, in addition to the success of the individual at the program, of course.
It is also recommended that ultrasound technicians be a member of one of three recognized medical diagnostic organizations. These include The American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography, Cardiovascular Credentialing International, and the American Registry of Radiological Technologists. There is also an additional examination that is required before one begins to practice as an ultrasound technician. The success of this examination will determine whether or not the individual will be licensed to practice.
With the increase in computer and internet technology, like many other post secondary programs, ultrasound technician training can now be conducted mainly online. With an internet connection and a computer you can access the training materials of an accredited ultrasound technician program, be evaluated, and receive the diploma. The practical component of ultrasound technician training is also regarded as extremely important. One must be able to put into practice the ultrasound technician education they have received.
Before you invest your money and time into it you must be certain that the ultrasound technician program to which you are applying will make you eligible for the ultrasound technician examination. Make sure an check out all the schools in your area to determine the best option for you.

Angel Governing Dec 8th to 12th
Angel number 52 - ANGEL IMAMIAH - Energy: EXPIATION OF ERRORS
(I pronounce the Angel's Name: EE-MAW-MEE-AH)
Qualities: Ease of recognizing one's errors - Expiates, pays back, makes amends for errors (one's karma) - Ardor, strength, great vigor - Liberates from prison within - Execution of arduous work with ease - Support in difficult moments - Makes peace with enemies - Faithful servant.
Distortions: unstable and tumultuous emotional life - competitive love life - overly passionate relationship - enemy, fight, quarrel, roughness - emotional excess - meanness because non-recognition of his victims - worsens one's karma, sinister fate.
I would like to share with you the following.
Standing, sitting or lying down, breathe in the name IMAMIAH by inhaling through the nose, and hold your breath a few seconds. Then, exhale slowly and progressively through the nose. Repeat the exercise as long as needed to create a state of calm. Then you can continue by breathing freely while continuing to invoke IMAMIAH keeping the eyes closed.
By invoking or repeating the Sacred Formula represented by the Angel's name, we create a passage between the conscious, the subconscious and the different layers of the unconscious, thus reprogramming the different Angelic states of consciousness within, and allowing ourselves to reconnect with our celestial origin. The objective of this work is to purify our soul and become totally conscious in order to rediscover the Knowledge that lies within.

The Maine Highlands: Bangor, Katahdin, and Moosehead Lake
A visit to The Maine Highlands would be incomplete without a day (or two, or seven…) exploring Baxter State Park. The pristine and majestic Park spans 200,000 acres in Piscataquis County and is home to Mount Katahdin, the so-called "mountain of the people of Maine."

A visit to The Maine Highlands would be incomplete without a day (or two, or seven…) exploring Baxter State Park. The pristine and majestic Park spans 200,000 acres in Piscataquis County and is home to Mount Katahdin, the so-called "mountain of the people of Maine." Baxter State Park is a natural treasure, made forever famous by one of its earliest enthusiasts, Henry David Thoreau, in his expeditionary journals. Hiking, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and wildlife viewing are all options when you visit Baxter, but we don't know anyone who is inured to the siren call of Mount Katahdin. The highest point in the state, she rises up towards the heavens at a grand 5,267 feet. Known affectionately as the Queen of Baxter, Mount Katahdin gifts her visitors with unparalleled views, uncompromised vistas, and the kind of peace that only comes with soaring altitudes.
Baxter State Park houses many well-kept secrets, and one of the best is the beginning or end (depending upon your perspective) of the 2,200-mile Appalachian Trail. The trail is one of America's finest treasures, rich in history and begging to be explored.
The best way to learn about a place is from those who love and treasure it most. The enthusiasm of Registered Maine Guides will show you their Maine highlands. With fifty waterfalls and four hundred magical miles of shoreline that offer you a pristine view of Moosehead Lake, there's so much to discover in this region.
For those nights when you'd like a finely crafted cocktail to end your day of Maine Highlands exploration, a trip into Bangor offers a vibrant downtown, eclectic restaurants, boutique shopping, a bustling casino, outdoor concerts and the chance to catch a glimpse of resident author Stephen King. Located just one hour from Baxter State Park, Bangor is a city with a rich timber history and a flourishing arts and culture scene. The 31-foot-tall Paul Bunyan statue presides over Bangor and reminds its visitors and residents that this was once the lumber capitol of the world. The Maine Forest and Logging Museum is an authentic reconstruction of a Maine logging and milling community and serves as a reminder of Bangor's heritage.
Drive an hour and a half from Bangor and reach Moosehead Lake, home to Maine's largest lake and surrounding wildlife haven. True to its name, this area boasts some of the finest moose watching in the country. By the turn of the century, Moosehead Lake welcomed wealthy visitors from the cities to their grand hotels and lakeside lodges. The region continued to evolve into the outdoor destination it is today, where Maine hospitality is rivaled only by the area's beauty. Or, sleep under the stars at one of the many area campsites. Annual festivals in Moosehead Lake run the gamut from Moosemania in the spring to Snowfest in the winter featuring a 100-mile sled dog race.

The teenager in a coma at Henry Ford Hospital after being shot and left for dead nearly a week ago has been identified as Amir Irvin. His 15th birthday was Wednesday, the day the story aired on FOX 2. "I watched the 10 o' clock news and as soon as I heard he was missing for five days, gut feeling, just knew it was him," says Amir's aunt Ruby Davis.Police told FOX 2's Taryn Asher Wednesday no missing persons report had been filed that coincided with Amir's circumstances, yet Davis says the family did file a report and has called every Detroit hospital. "We asked the hospitals did they have any John Does, period. Do you have anybody that has nobody came to see, or any black males, teenagers - our son is missing; our nephew is missing. We told Henry Ford Hospital, Children's Hospital, Harper - everywhere," Davis says. Sources tell Asher that Amir was on probation and was supposed to turn himself in to juvenile court, but he ran away. How he ended up inside a dark gray Suburban with a gunshot wound to the head is still a mystery. The Suburban had not been reported stolen and was registered to a bad address.

It seems like he's some sort of henchman for Bud Selig when it comes to PEDS. He's like Mr. Smee in Peter Pan. He goes into Hook's (Bud's) office to do his bidding. Selig gives him a list of names to get and throws him one gold coin to get the job done. Just unreal how this guy keeps cropping up.
Anyhow I guess at this point if this is going to happen just get it over with. Like the season is lost (we're sure about that right? right? right.....) anyway, so if there was a time to lose your stud for 100 games then the majority of it might as well happen now. Hell it wouldn't shock me someone in the Brewers office 'leaked' the information on Biogenesis just to make sure this process happens during 2013. Whether or not he actually took PEDs, it's painfully obvious that MLB is determined to 'vindicate' themselves for Braun getting off in 2011/2012. And if they think they've been hiding that fact from the general public they're wrong. It's like when a relationship ends and someone goes on facebook with passive aggressive status updates that start with 'not that I care' and end with 'you know who you are.'
And to be honest, Braunie isn't helping himself recently either. If we're believing the reports out there he basically Kato Kaelin-ed his way through his deposition with MLB a few weeks ago and plead the 5th on everything. He keeps alluding to 'the real story' but refuses to tell it. Again, I'm with Braun primarily because I haven't seen or heard a single shred of evidence that implicates him, but if there were ever a time to clear the air, now is it. Because if he actually is guilty, the longer this goes on he's going more the Lance Armstrong route and less the Andy Pettite route.
PS: Aside from that yesterday, how about Wily Peralta? In three of his last 4 starts he's had 7 innings of shutout ball, 5.1 of shutout ball, and the first complete game (and a shutout) for the Brewers in 407 games. I think going into the year when we 'went young' with our pitchers most people agreed that between Rogers, Fiers, and him, that Peralta had the highest ceiling. He was the Sunny D, Fiers and Rogers were the soda and the purple stuff. And if this is what he really is, I think it should change the deadline strategy with Gallardo. If Peralta is going to throw like this consistently, him, Gallardo and Lohse give me some hope for next year.

If you saw smoke coming from the South Bend airport this morning you weren't the only one.
No need to be alarmed, it was actually training for aircraft rescue fire fighters. It involves lighting a plane on fire to combat large fuel fires.
"It's an inferno," says aircraft rescue firefighter James Temple. "We are doing it the hard way, really, because it's training and we need to do it that way. And we're doing a 'hand-line' attack with just plain water most of the time, and it makes you work a lot harder."
During the training firefighters wear special uniforms that look like they were designed by NASA. The shiny suits can withstand extremely high temperatures.
"It's not actually made to go into, or be engulfed by, flames. But you can get darn close to it and still be fairly comfortable inside the suit and still perform your job."
The annual training is a federal requirement for all airports.
Coming up on WFOX28 Morning Show Wednesday, Amir Abbas will be live at the airport during the 8 o'clock hour for an up-close look at the training.

Calling it a "sad day," Governor Rick Snyder declared Detroit to be "in financial emergency" Friday. The mayor and city council have ten days to appeal his decision. The governor could then appoint an emergency manager after a hearing later this month.
On a special edition of "Let It Rip", Governor Snyder gave us more detail about what he did and why.
If an EM is appointed, will the council and the mayor still have jobs? Will they have any input? Plus, what are his priorities as the state essentially begins a takeover of Detroit.
Joining Huel Perkins and the governor on our panel were Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Charlie LeDuff and Fox 2 legal analyst and "Let It Rip Weekend" host Charlie Langton.

"Wow! This perfume is intense. It starts out very citrusy- smells like lemons. As it settles on the skin, the myrrh notes come to the surface. Perfectly smoky! I had two people ask if I had burned incense."

Start another thread to discuss your possible pregnancy. This is a rant and belongs in the "Ranting and Venting" forum.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
None of us understand your point. Sorry.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Well your 15 and had a positive pregnancy test. I would post in expecting in general if you need advice on being newly pregnant. Take time to gather your thoughts and talk to a parent, a teacher, doctor, someone who is a responsible adult. You getting in trouble for throwing a ketchup packet & and your mother calling you a baby/ talking about diapers is going to seem very petty compared to being pregnant at 15. I hope you get some professional help for someone to guide you through this. Good luck.
this is one of the most unique spam posts i have read in a while...
If this was real, and I was you, I would be worried about CPS being called on myself because I am obviously not ready to be a mother in any way.
Cathy 24 DH 24 DD Caitlin 2 DD Charlotte
i thank everybody for there time and answers.. i need to think things out.
I see on 7 other forums you've been given essentially the same "advice"...not sure how or when or why anyone's going to change their tune or reaction to your absurdity

If my kids did this when they were 13 and 15 I would probably go off and say things similar to what your mom said. All she is doing is showing how disgusted she was in a public place. You need to grow up and suck it up and learn from it.As my mom would of said "Straighten up and fly right". My mom would of also gave me a good A** beating back in those days. The + ept is just another showing of maturity for your age. Think of the responsibilities now and whats to come. Mom's do get mad at first but then they end up loving and wanting that grand baby by the time it gets here.
And the children that bounce from foster home to foster home, sometimes being molested by the people there, are wishing they could go to a Mcdonalds, and wishing they had a MOM to embarass them in public. Like it or not everyone has been embarassed in public by their mom at some point. And why do you care what other people,complete strangers honestly, think about you?And yeah you are definetly not mature enough to be a mom if your getting CPS crazy over this.
Im wondering why you PM's me this?!?!?!? I havent been arround in ages...
Human happiness is not generally done with great strokes of luck, but with little things that happen every day. LIVE BY IT.
Anyone else get an unsolicited PM from this poster?
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
yup i got a PM 2 of em actually .

(NBC NEWS) -- It's down to the wire for the game of political ping-pong playing out on
Capitol Hill with the federal government funding measure, as the clock
ticks toward its midnight deadline to avoid a shutdown.
The Senate
rejected late Monday evening the House take on the continuing resolution
— replete with curbs for Obamacare that the Senate keeps stripping out —
with another vote Monday night.
The Senate and President Barack Obama
have both made clear they won't accept a CR that defunds or delays the
implementation of the health care reform law, and the Senate's vote
Monday night sent it back to the House.
Obama warned against such
tactics, and against a government shutdown, in remarks at the White
House on Monday, as Congress lobbed versions of the CR back and forth.
"The idea of putting the American people's hard-earned progress at risk
is the height of irresponsibility, and it does not have to happen,"
Obama said.

A student comes to a young professor's office. She glances down the hall, enters, then quickly and quietly closes his door. She struts around his desk, then kneels in front of his chair. She leans pleadingly toward the young professor and says "I would do anything to pass this exam." Then she leans ever so closer to him, flips back her hair, and gazes meaningfully into his eyes and whispers softly "What I mean is I would do anything."
He returns her gaze, his voice softly says "Anything?
She whispers in his ear "Anything."
He gazes back into her eyes and softly says "Would you study?"

A few questions that came up from readers over on CG were the cost of making the bench and the sturdiness of it. The oak for the bench cost around $17 and the fabric (Waverly Ellis in Hemp) was $10/yard and I used less than a yard. I had everything else left over from other projects but believe you could make the entire thing for under $50. As far as the structural soundness of the bench, I see no signs of weakness here! We've been sitting on it for a few weeks now and it's as sturdy as can be. Just be absolutely sure you don't skip the nails. Wood glue alone won't be enough to support weight over time.
And now read on, to find out how you can make your very own X leg bench!
I've had my eye on a pair of them for my living room for awhile now but decided I wanted to try my hand at making them myself instead of buying them, both to cut costs and because I love making furniture and seeing how things go together. My two primary inspiration pieces were these:
- 1 1/2"x3/4" oak hardwood planks - cut one end at a 50º angle. Measure 9 1/2" from the pointed side and cut the other end at a 9º angle. Do this process eight times, giving you eight identically-cut pieces of wood.
- 1 1/2"x3/4" oak hardwood planks - cut one end at a 50º angle. Measure 19" from the pointed end and cut the other end at 50º as well. Do this process four times, giving you four identically-cut pieces of wood.
- 1 1/2"x3/4" oak hardwood planks - cut one end at a straight angle. Measure 17" and cut the other end at a straight angle as well. Do this process twice, giving you two identically-cut pieces of wood.
- 1 1/2"x1 1/2" oak hardwood plank - cut one end at a straight angle. Measure 14" and cut the other end at a straight angle as well. You only need one piece cut like this.
Once the oak is all cut, use sandpaper or a pad sander to sand it down. Lay one of the 19" pieces on the ground. Lay one of the 9 1/2" pieces on top, lining up the ends, to determine which sides will be facing each other. Spread wood glue on the bottom side of the 9 1/2" inch piece and press into place on top of the 19" piece, fine tuning the positioning so all edges line up exactly.
Place one of the 17" straight-cut pieces on top of one of the X legs and position so the ends are flush. Holding tightly, pre-drill small holes to make sure the screws go in straight and everything lines up. Drive a 1 1/2" wood screw through each pre-drilled hole, one on each end, then repeat on the other X leg.
The final step, after constructing the top, is laying the assembled, covered seat upside down on the floor, carefully positioning the X base upside down on top of it, and pre-drilling a couple holes in the middle of each 17" piece, now attached to the X base. Drive a 1 1/2" wood screw through each hole, and repeat on the other side.

Authorities have located a missing East Texas boy after he was reported missing Friday evening.
Officials say 7-year-old Nadariion Montrell Wayne Williams was last seen around 6 p.m. He was reported missing around 9 p.m. Friday near a residence in the 600 block of West Vance Street in Tyler. A short time later, authorities located Nadariion at the John Tyler vs Nacogdoches football game in Lufkin with his grandfather.
"After further investigation, we spoke with some of the relatives and determined that he was with his grandfather at a football game," said Sergeant Wendell Gardner with the Tyler Police Department. "There was some miscommunication among the family, but the child is with his grandfather and is safe."
Authorities say they deployed several units to the family's neighborhood to search for the boy before determining he was with his grandfather.

Roger Muchnick, 23, who grew up in Westport, Conn., had already pulled one tour in Afghanistan and was thinking about returning to college after his enlistment was up, said his grandfather, Jerome Muchnick. Muchnick played on the football and lacrosse teams at Staples High School and went on to play lacrosse at Eastern Connecticut State University, where he studied business. In a biography on the university's website, Muchnick said the one thing he would like to do before he died was "live," and that his most embarrassing moment was getting caught lip-synching in a school talent show. "He was a fabulous kid. Just fabulous," his grandfather said. "He was at the top of his game when this happened. ... You can't imagine losing a very handsome, 23-year-old grandson who was vital and loving."
