Help your mother-in-law deal with boredom, loneliness
DEAR MISS LONELYHEARTS: I'm having a problem with my mother-in-law. She calls us way too much -- at least four times a day, every single day. She doesn't work anymore, and feels lonely and bored, and I can understand that. We are very busy people and we don't get very much time to spend with our son, because we work all day, so we really cherish the little time we have with him in the evenings. She's also kind of rude when she calls. She likes to talk up and over you, after asking you a question. Also, her conversations consist of chit-chat, which I do not have time for. I have gotten to the point where I just don't answer when I see the number (call me evil if you wish). I have been trying to limit it to once a day. My husband also doesn't say anything because he thinks it's funny. Well, I certainly do not find it very funny. I know she is bored and lonely, and I can completely understand, but how do I let her know without breaking her heart? -- Mother-In-Law Problem, Winnipeg
Dear M-I-L Problem: Go for the root of the problem first -- boredom and loneliness. Try to convince your mother-in-law how much fun she'd have at a part-time job or doing volunteer work through Volunteer Manitoba (www.volunteermanitoba.ca (204-477-5180) and actually open the website with her, if necessary. As for the phone calling, tell her you enjoy speaking to her, but you need her to call at such-and-such a time after work. If she knows she has a time to call in the evening, she may not need to make the multiple calls. Get your husband to take at least half of those calls, as he is the one she loves the most, and it amuses him that she calls so much. It clearly doesn't amuse you.
Dear Miss Lonelyhearts: I read the letter from Crying Without Knowing and felt compelled to write. My mother passed away two years ago after a lengthy illness. I did cry a little but did not have (and still have not had) the "big cry." This worried me a little, as we were very close and I had some hard decisions to make at the end. However, many friends and people I work with were very supportive of my situation, encouraging me to speak of my mother. Tears did fall. Everyone said to not hide them, as they were tears of sorrow, honour and love. The pain of loss lasts differently for each of us. I still miss my mother very much, but the pain of loss is now gone. Speak of your mother and the tears will flow. Do not hide them, but wear them with love and honour. (My mother came to see me about a year after she passed; I know she is with her Father in Heaven, and this comforts me greatly.) -- Daughter of an Angel, Winnipeg
Dear Daughter of Angel: Thanks for taking the time to write in to offer comfort to this lady who also hasn't cried the big cry (and had surprise tears running down her face). Although she has not felt able to talk about the death of her loved one for fear of feeling more grief, it is now time to start. If she sheds tears over a loved one with someone who wants to talk about it, she may find another person who shares her grief. They can comfort each other. Sharing grief is one of the beautiful things about people in this life and people should allow themselves the vulnerability and the sweet comfort of that experience.

this mascara makes your eyelashes look like weird plastic spider legs, some looking at the left and some at right..
More reviews by SavannaBurnham
I love it I use it every day the tip or skinny part makes the lashes long and the fatter part separates them it's my favorite mascara!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I like this mascara. I don't love it. I would rebuy it, but only for limited purposes. The description "lots of lashes" is a bit of a misnomer - I wouldn't say this is very volumizing. However, what it DOES do is lengthen and separate your lashes, as well as help you get to all the little bitty lashes other mascaras might miss. I use this for a more natural look. If I want va-va-voom volume, I use something else. It's alright I guess. I HATE the original Great Lash - this one is decidedly better, but far from being my perfect mascara.
More reviews by electricshock01
It's an alright mascara. I love the packaging, it's cute and colorful and the brush is nice(but takes some getting used to). The mascara itself is meh. It's a bit wet and also looks really spidery on me. I would suggest running a lash comb in after to remove excessive product and/or clumps (it occasionally clumps on me). But this mascara lengthens well.
I bought this because it was cheap and I really needed mascara...I love the brush,,,it gets every lash and does not clump. The formula is a little wet...but it is really easy to work with. I have found that this lengthens and separates beautifully...nice dark black shade , too( I think I got 'glam black', label fell off). You can create thickness as well as length. Directions say not to let dry between coats , keep working it till you get desired look. Looks great! This seems to react to hot temperatures though...if I am outside in 90 degree plus weather...it tends to flake off a little. This is a nice mascara though...I would re-purchase.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I tried liking this mascara, but the formula was soooo clumpy and wet! It looked really spidery on, the only thing it did for me was lengthen my lashes. Not impressed with this.
The concept of the product was cute, and I couldn't resist to buy this for under $5. The formula of this mascara was too wet, and I always had to wipe off excess mascara from my eyelid from using this. I'm not a huge fan on washable formulas, which made me gravitate toward this mascara even less. Rubber wands are great but the tapered effect on this wand was a little impractical to coat all of my lashes.
Of course this is the 40 year classic pink and green Great Lash mascara. This is a better version in my opinion. The brush grabs every single lash without clumps and volumizes and lengthens them. The packaging is cute and I love the formula. Great mascara.
I feel that it's very good but you have to take the lumps out by going over like when you put it on it comes off by it self but it still has the mascara look
Edit #2: Flakes like a mug. Returned it.
EDIT: I applied a second coat and it looks a lot better but still.. Wish I wouldn't have to do that. Now I'll continue my 24 hour test and edit again on flaking and smudging, if any. So far, none and I'm happy about that. And according to Beautypedia this is the best formula out of all the Great Lash formulas (there's 3 different types and each has a waterproof version I believe).
I wanted to try this for the longest time because I thought the brush would be helpful and let's face it, the lots of lashes heart sh*t on the bottle is youthful and cute! But WHAT A LETDOWN, especially since I'm doing a 24 hour test on this with Maybelline's "the Rocket" on my other eye. This mascara is so ho-hum. You would think they would make the brush bigger--no. It's just as small as the regular Great Lash mascara brush. Makes me wonder about a Lorac mascara I saw on QVC this morning. It had this shape, but was a lot bigger. Anyways, not much power in anything when compared to an eye coated with the Rocket next to it. I'm a half asian girl with short, straight lashes and the best way I can describe the way these make my lashes if you're intent on buying this is fluffy. The Rocket creates long, seperated, defined lashes whereas Lots of Lashes looks like you have smudged eyeliner applied on the bottom lash if you decide to apply it there. Now something I really didn't like was, again, because of the problematic brush. Its size makes it hard to create big fluttery lashes in seconds before it dries, and it was hard to get to the base of the bottom lashes. From my point of view, looking in a mirror, I can see that half of my lashes are naked and the other half is coated! It's really quite terrible. Way too natural for my liking, I prefer doll-like lashes. Going to return when I get the time.

I must confess that I truly love some of the more refreshing type fragrances such as Lorenzo Villoresi "Dilmun" and Creed "Millesime Imperial" and well as Body Kouros. I am seeking...
Hi all,
I think "Dollars&Scents" summed it up very nicely. I haven't said it here at BN for a long time but, here goes :
"The Eye may lie, the Lip may slip, but, the NOSE KNOWS!
LOL, still with the SL MKK eh ? You're too funny! Hey CH, do you liked DZING! ? I recall you're saying that you LOVE LOVE LOVE ADORE ADORE ADORE KOUROS. I find it somewhat perplexing...
Hi all,
I'll start:
If you like BULGARI BLACK (or FAHRENHEIT), you MAY like L'Artisian DZING!
Hi all,
Mr. Stinky, lol, very good! Gotta love Jules. Nersh, I am just having some fun here. I think (as evident by the number of guesses) members like to play along. That being said, I...
Hi CH,
I'll be the third one in this thread to say it, (imho) MMK is a "MASTERPIECE"! I also agree with Dernier's comment. Put the offensive fragrance aside for the time being and try it...
Good to hear from you. Sorry not the correct fragrance but...your logic IS right on target. Oooh, it's NOT a Tobacco fragrance.
Mr. Stinky,
"Say NO again, say NO again, I dare you, I DOUBLE dare you Mo.....(whoops, never mind) that's "WHAT" not "NO" (lol).
(Jules in Pulp Fiction).
Hednic, nope, not Chrome.
Great guesses guys but, sorry, not correct. Tap and Halo, I would say you guys are on the right track (but it's not Caron).
Hi guys,
Oooh, another clue. This (sale priced) fragrance must be selling pretty darn good on some sites as it was N/A (sold out) on one popular "X" site. Arrrrr, that made me search even...
Hi guys,
Wow, all EXCELLENT guesses (and future suggestions for that matter) but, no Cigar. Tap, I was REALLY close to "pulling the trigger" on Caron 3rd. Man. I think 3rd. will be in my...
I'll give you some clues. This House is not what I would call.....main stream (i.e. popular/advertised that I'm aware of).
Also, keep in mind, I'm not a guy in my twenties (God almighty, is that...
amw, glad to hear you're enjoying the Uomo ? Is Uomo ? at all unique/different than the so many other common (smell alike) fragrances ? Is it sweet ? I can't take (too) sweet fragrances. Tappio,...
Hi all,
Wow! I ordered this Cologne this afternoon about 12:00 noon (EST US of A) and it's already being shipped (from NY to Maine). Man, that's damn good service!
Hi guys,
No correct answers so far. I must admit, UOMO ? is something that has grabbed my attention. The price is good! Darn it, had I seen UOMO ? at that price, I might of gone that...
Hi all,
Well, it didn't take very long for me (despite my trying NOT to spend money) to give in and cry "Uncle" since my return to BN. Awww, what the heck. I feel again like a little kid in a...
Hi all,
Yikes! Only one vote so far for one of my ALL time favorite fragrances. I'll second : SANTA MARIA NOVELLA "ACQUA DI CUBA".
Hi Mike,
I'm kind of joking about the use of the word "weird" however, I am a long time member of BN (2003) and I am pretty well know for my love of (what I term) "off beat" (some say stinky)...
Hi all,
Give me WEIRD or give me death!
Hi Kagey,
I live out in the "STICKS" of the beautiful State of Maine U.S. of A.
Thanks for your recommendations.
Hey hey Scent,
Thank you my friend for your comments. I hope all is well with you.
Hi Frag,
Yes, BODY Kouros. Oooh my God, BK is SUPER refreshing (cooling, etc.) in my book. I'm a big fan of BK.
Hi all,
Yet another "oldie but goodie" thread from my past. Funny, I'm kinda in the same situation today as I was six years ago.
That is to say, I'm still on the look out for budget/cost...
Hi The Bark,
Good point about the dollar declining. I just can't believe something like a bottle of BANDIT (tester) that cost LESS than twenty dollars six years ago now cost between eighty to...
Hi D&S,
Very good, lol.
Hi all,
I guess I'm feeling kind of nostalgic. After all these years, I'm still not sure what I would choose as a MASTERPIECE.
I have MANY favorites but I still can't decide. I recall the...
Hi all,
Tonight, I found a "print out" I made of Colognes (shopping basket) that I was considering buying from a well known Fragrance web site circa January 2006. How in Gods name could...
Hi Halo,
I'm trying to recall.....(I've been away from BN for some time). I recall there being one House who (several years ago) had a line of fragrances just as you described. Perhaps it was...
Hi all,
Ahhh, timely thread. I was just thinking along the same lines of the OP's question. Sadly, I no longer have my NICHE collection (all gone). My favorites were SNM Acqua di Cuba, Creed...
While I think Heritage is a wonderful fragrance (especially given it's price point) for ME, this is a NO Brainer.
CREED Bois du Portugal!
Hi CHS,
My selection might be a tad more than your "cheapie" requirements, perhaps not if you find it on sale. I personally want to purchase a bottle of Kouros BODY. I find KB to be so darn...
Hey hey Jon!
Good to hear from you my friend! Thanks for the warm welcome back! It's good to be back here at BN. I can truly say that my time here at BN has been a special time in my life...
Hi Redneck,
Ummmm.....Spicebomb! eh ? OK, I'm going to have to check it out for sure. I also have seen a bottle of Dirty English for sale at one of the local discount stores here in Maine. ...
Hello Fhao,
Thank you for your suggestions. I have heard of Springbank and I'll keep an eye open for it, especially if it happens to be on sale. I have tried Ardberg (or was it Talisker 10 ?)...
Hey hey SmellsLike,

Orcs Must Die!, and they will on PC, XBLA this summerRobot Entertainment has announced that its upcoming third-person action tower-defense-style game, Orcs Must Die!, is coming to Xbox Live Arcade and PC this summer. The developer has also revealed that Microsoft Studios will be publishing and distributing the game, which just made a PlayStation Network release look unlikely. A limited run of print versions of the comic will be available at Comic-Con, where Orcs Must Die! will be playable at the Xbox lounge. A digital version of the book will be made available for free this summer. Comments not appearing? Anti-virus apps like Avast or some browser extensions can cause this.

Posted: May 12, 2014
|MATHS star Hannah Summers, a pupil at Stafford Sports College, scooped a gold award for finishing in the top seven per cent of students in the United Kingdom Maths Trust Challenge.

Hannah is pictured with her tutor Trish Evans at Stafford Sports College.
Mrs Evans said: "Hannah has worked extremely hard and we are all proud of her, she rightly deserves credit for her achievement, for her age she is one of the top mathematicians in the world."

Here it is, the second "debut" trailer for Explodemon. Wait, what? Curve Studios explains that the original video "was a pre-vis ... to try and get publishers interested," adding "it's changed a lot since then." It certainly has, experiencing a few delays and shrinking down to one platform (PS3) along the way. Pay close attention to the video to see the combo system in action, and its Bangai-O inspiration in effect.

Syria and Iran: A Look at the Facts
Katherine Gockel DefenseNews.com
February 2007
Over the past six to seven months, it seems that two nations have been "married" together in almost every major policy discussion on the Middle East. Whether it is the response to the election of Hamas in Palestine, the Israeli-Hizbollah conflict in Lebanon, the Iraq Study Group Report or President Bush's recent speeches, Syria and Iran are linked — often in the same sentence.
Yet when looking at some basic facts found in documents on the U.S. State Department Web site, one has to ask if the continued association of these two countries is actually driving together two nations that may have less in common than most of us realize. Political structure. Iran is an Islamic republic. A theocracy. It has a president and his power is often discussed, but most experts agree that the real power still lies with Supreme Leader Ali Kha-menei. The political power structure in Iran is considered murky. Syria, on the other hand, is officially a republic but is actually a secular autocracy. Its current leader, Bashar al-Assad, took over from his father, Hafez al-Assad, continuing the Ba'ath Party regime. Everyone knows who is in power, even if some feel the regime is weaker than it was in the past. Religion. The predominant religion in each country is Islam. But Iran's estimated population of 69 million is 89 percent Shia and 9 percent Sunni. Syria's estimated population of 18.6 million is 74 percent Sunni followed by Alawis (12 percent), Christians (10 percent) and Druze (3 percent). Syria's Shia population is not broken out as a percentage. Ethnicity and language. Iran is 51 percent Persian and only 3 percent Arab. Its predominant language is Persian. Syria is 90 percent Arab and the official language is Arabic. Thus, Iran is ethnically dissimilar to its surrounding Arab neighbors. Syria is an Arab state and takes that fact very seriously. Trade and oil. Iran's exports are $55.4 billion. Petroleum makes up 80 percent of its exports and Iran is a member of OPEC. Three of its four largest export partners are in Asia — Japan (16.9 percent), China (11.2 percent) and South Korea (5.8 percent). Its major import partners are Germany (13.7 percent), the United Arab Emirates (8.3 percent), China (8.2 percent), Italy (7 percent) and France (6.2 percent). In contrast, Syria's exports are estimated at $6.8 billion, much smaller than Iran's. Petroleum is not broken out in the export statistics and Syria is not in OPEC. Its major export markets are the European Union, Arab countries, the United States and many others. Major suppliers are Germany, Turkey, Italy, France, the United States and Japan. Nuclear energy programs. Iran is pursuing one that is drawing scrutiny by the United Nations National Security Council. Syria is not known to be pursuing a nuclear energy program. Each country has been designated a state sponsor of terrorism by the U.S. government — Iran in January 1984 and Syria in December 1979. However, the U.S. State Department's State Sponsor of Terror Overview provides insights into differences in the behavior of the two countries when it comes to key U.S. policies. According to the overview, "Iran remained the most active state sponsor of terrorism;" it points out Iran's direct assistance in the "planning and support" of terrorist activities. This includes urging groups, including those with key members in Syria and Lebanon, "to use terrorism in pursuit of their goals." The overview also states unwillingness on the part of Iran to identify and bring to justice senior members of al-Qaida. This same document raises the issue of Syria's continued support of Hizbollah and Palestinian terrorist groups. Yet it goes on to mention Syria's past cooperation with the United States "against al-Qaida and other terrorist organizations and individuals." The overview states that Syria ended its intelligence cooperation due to U.S. complaints about its "inadequate level" of assistance to end the flow of money and fighters into Iraq. But the next paragraph mentions that Syria "made efforts to limit the movement of foreign fighters into Iraq." Diplomatic relations. The United States does not have diplomatic relations with Iran. There is neither a U.S. Embassy in Iran nor an Iranian Embassy in the United States. In contrast, there is a Syrian Embassy in Washington and a U.S. Embassy in Damascus. These facts do not deny that these two countries are conducting activities that affect the peace and stability of the region. There is also considerable evidence that both are aiding groups that have been designated terrorist organizations by the U.S. government. But these facts also provide insights as to how U.S. foreign policy might uncouple these two countries by offering different avenues for engagement. Multilateral engagement with the aid of U.S. allies in Europe, Asia and the Middle East seems feasible, especially in the case of Syria. Engagement might also minimize the areas that these two countries have in common, including their support of Palestinian terrorist groups. Now wouldn't that really be something worth discussing?

Housekeeping staff entering room early in the morning while we were still in bed. This happened on 2 separate days. High level of constant noise from the rooftop machines that kept us awake. Very expensive breakfasts
Good central location with near-by tube station close by. Lots of attractions close to hotel like Borough Market, The Shard, the Golden Hind and plenty of restaurants near by.
london was brilliant and there are lots of things close to this hotel to eat and see.
we were charged excessively for the Parking and told that the hotel had no control over the car park or parking i spent £80 in two days.also do not touch the water or tea facility's in the room as they charge £285 per bottle !!!!!!
Everything else.
No toothpaste (as a sample e.g. shampoo). No smoking area. The pillows could be better.
Room and bed were great!
Room service had to be cash
The staff were all very pleasant and helpful
I was really looking forward to relaxing in the steam room after a busy cold day.... BUT IT WAS OUT OF ORDER!!
ambience and warm welcome to high quality facilities
Modern hotel, excellent staff, brilliant location, beautiful river and location views, walking distance of shard, Tate modern, Shakespeare globe, london bridge, local tube stations
Breakfast was very expensive as an extra!
1.Location was ideal 2.Breakfast and staff were good. 3. Neat and clean rooms.
Housekeeping not unto Normal standards. 1.Every room should be provided with 2 sets of fresh towels always. 2. The drinking water provided is not managed correctly, like 2 bottles each of still and fizzy water but everyday it was different and the last day of my stay I had all 4 fizzy water only -- not good.
Helpful and friendly staff and the girls at reception were very attractive and if I could, I would have taken them home with me.
The fact that our deluxe room didn't feature a bath.
Pleasant enough stay. Lovely room. Clean and modern. Nice hotel.
Only thing I would say was that room service menu stated 24 hours but when we called for food the receptionist said they had very limited food, and the tone suggested it was best we didn't order food. Also very noisy at night from noise outside.
location and convenience
Understaffed reception with 20 minute wait to check in Failure to sort corporate booking - I had to pay and reclaim for the second time after they had been asked to put this right
No drinking water as complimentary. Cost of small bottle is high. Free wifi only for checking mails. Wifi speed was too slow
We were travelling with my sister and her husband, we had arrived early and were told our rooms were not ready. Which was fine, but I had requested that the rooms could be next to each other or close by. When we picked up the keys, not only was our rooms at each end of the corridor, but we were given a disabled room, where the sink was lower that the normal, which was not good for our backs. They offered to move us but not until the following day, as we were only booked in for 2 nights it hardly seemed worth while to pack and unpack. A false fire alarm early hours of Sunday morning was not welcome. There was no coordination, many of the guests did not even bother to leave the building, there were no checks being done or communication as to what was happening. A very poor fire evacuation process. When we checked out on Sunday morning, there was no explanation or even an apology for inconvenience of the false fire alarm.
The location is great a few mins from London Bridge tube, the Shard, the Globe and Borough Market so lots of great places to eat very nearby
We returned from an evening out on the Friday night, expecting to be able to get a drink in the bar, however it had shut early and there was no room service available, although the bar did stay open later on the Saturday evening
Only the location for business was good.
The front desk staff was not very welcoming, cold reception from them. Key to the room was not working. For executive room, no complementary water. "Free" wifi they boast off was very misleading. You had to pay additional for "premium wifi" in an executive room. You Only got a "below basic" FREE wifi which was very poor. Air-condition unit was not giving cool air at all. Bed was soft and uncomfortable. Breakfast was stone cold, sunny side up eggs was over cooked and hard. Food had not taste at all.
quality of the food quality of the room nearby market and shops easy to find, public transport nearby
Helpful friendly staff and cleanliness.
The shower above the bath had a temperature control which would not remain at the temperature set and kept needing to be re-set. The shower head would not remain fixed and kept slowly descending. Making for difficult showering conditions. Homeless man smoking in the male toilets on the ground floor.
This hotel was amazing for location comfort and cleanliness! I cannot praise the staff enough for their help politeness helpfulness and professionalism , I would definitely return and recommend this hotel to friends and family x
location room size (except fold out bed for 3rd person) facilities
expensive breakfast but it is London !
Spotless, convenient, efficient. Borough Market just around the corner as is the Shard, London Bridge, The Globe. Recently refurbished rooms
Expensive as is the car parking although the latter is convenient. Cost of breakfast is ridiculous. Suggest Cafe Riva 5 mins away outside Borough underground

With heat comes hunger
Our opinion: A new report on climate change underscores the consequences of denial. That one in six adults are hungry in America is alarming. That one in five children are hungry is appalling.

Despite warnings about how chlorofluorocarbons were harming the earth's atmosphere, it was only after scientists discovered an ozone hole over the South Pole that world leaders banned its use, says Elizabeth Kolbert in the New Yorker.

Is extreme cold snap more proof of global warming?
A few days of record-breaking cold weather don't "change the overall trajectory of a warming planet" and may actually be evidence of climate change; warmer temperatures in the North Pole weaken the jet stream and allow Arctic air "to escape the polar vortex and flow southward," says Bryan Walsh in Time.

Climate deniers have much in common with Joe Camel

A case for cap and trade
Our opinion: A new report shows the potential cap-and-trade of greenhouse emissions on a national scale.

Climate change gets local
Our opinion: As the potential consequences of climate change become more apparent, the GOP remains in denial mode. Accepting reality is the first step to being taken seriously.

Hi, I've been researching my grandfather's family, Schwarck, for quite sometime. I just recently found out his sister, Lidy Schwarck Pohl, may still be living in PA somewhere. I searched for her on the internet and have written to the only address I found. However, I would like to give some info to see if any of these names sound familiar to anyone: Max Pohl (b. 1899, d. 1977...buried in Keokee Chapel Church & Cemetery, Paradise Valley, Monroe Co., PA) -m. Lidy Schwarck - daughter: Ingrid Pohl - daughter: Hildegard (sp?) Pohl - son: (unknown) Lidy Schwarck (b. 1906) -mother: Bertha Schwarck -father: Heinrich Johannes Karl Schwarck - sister: Bertha (Betty) Schwarck-Schweppe - brother: Karl Heinrich Schwarck (Schwarcks came over from Germany in 1925, and Heinrich Johannes Karl Schwarck became a U.S. Citizen on May 6, 1931) (I have lots of info on these listed Schwarcks if anyone wants it.) If anyone has any info on Max Pohl, his wife, Lidy, or anyway I can reach them, please email me at: email@example.com. Even if no one knows how to reach them, I am still researching the genealogy of Max Pohl now, so please contact me if you have any information on this line.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with having a sweet tooth or looking forward to a delicious dessert to complete a healthy meal but with science now telling us sugar may actually be worse than salt for raising blood pressure, it makes good sense to try and find recipes that deliver healthier but still delicious desserts, some of which may even be completely sugar-free.
When the Huffington Post asked me, a 37-year-old married father of two, if I wanted to enter a cooking competition to win a trip to Hong Kong with a 25-year-old girl I'd never met, it was a real no-brainer. I'm confident that in no way would my wife go ballistic if I jogged off to the other side of the world leaving her with two pre-school kids to look after, so I signed up on the spot.
So as each and every one of you will know, this month has been Veganuary - a 31 day long promise to the birds and bees and cows and pigs and sheep and prawns and former racehorses that for the duration of January 2015 I will comply with a more compassionate lifestyle that diminishes their need to suffer.
I'm a firm believer that being positive is always a bigger win, personally and professionally, than being negative. Looking on the bright side, seeing the glass half full, trusting that every cloud has a silver lining - they may well feel like clichés but they fundamentally lie at the heart of the way I choose to live.
Few things convey the arrival of the festive season as well as the smell of spices; from cinnamon to cloves to nutmeg, these scents are synonymous with Christmas. Unfortunately, cold and flu season goes hand in hand with the winter festivities, with December and January being the months when infections are most prevalent.
Food is an intrinsic part of Nigerian culture and family life. Nonetheless, we must protect our mothers, our children, and our environment, from the harmful effects of household air pollution and inefficient fuels. This may mean a move away from the traditional firewood stoves that impart the traditional flavours that we all enjoy.
In my house I am made to feel like the biggest nag in the world suggesting a family dinner round the table - by all five of my men! My two eldest tell me that 'it's boring' sitting at the table. My four year old contests just because that seems the thing to do and hey, if his big brothers are saying it then it must be right.
Thus, my mother had always told me that I had to learn to love cooking before becoming a mum. Not merely to learn to cook, but to learn to love cooking. Her rationale is learning to love cooking is not merely about putting food on the table, but cultivating a mindset where there is a genuine desire to nurture and care for another human being.

If you want to post more than one photo in a thread, you need to first upload your photos to a photo hosting website like flickr or Picasa (what I use.) In Picasa, you can just drag and drop the photos from your computer onto the upload page of your part of the Picasa website and then it will upload. Once the photos are in, I set the album to share and then I click on the photo. Over on the right I click on "Link to this photo", choose the medium large size and copy and paste the code for an embedded image (not a linked image) into the text part of my Garden Web message. When I preview the image shows instead of the text I pasted. However, multiple replies to a thread works just as well and is certainly faster. The advantage to uploading to a web host is that once the photo is uploaded, you can use it more than once, whereas if you just upload directly to the message thread, you can't reuse it elsewhere.

nhbabs, just saw this tonight I'll check tags tomorrow. There are two clematis in that picture that grow together. Thank you for the advise about the photo hosting site. I'll need to accomplish this soon as several photos are too large to post. I've now painted three rooms and two hallways since Christmas to keep my sanity. Everyones clematis photos are spectacular. How refreshing! My camera likes to make blues look purple and purples look blueish.
sandyl, can you tell me the name of the last flower you posted.I love the blue.grownarnit....the third clematis on your post is outstanding. Name? I am getting ready to make a spring order and really like these two clematis. Oh, I am still "sick of winter" here in KY.!!! lesley
I've really enjoyed looking at everyone's photos, so I will share some as well. These were taken at the Montreal Botanic Gardens at the beginning of July 2012 when I accompanied my husband on a business trip. These gardens were just huge, and I thought they were the best gardens I have ever visited. Not only did they have clematis scattered throughout the various gardens, but they had an entire section devoted to clematis.
Ashva with Savannah
viticella alba luxurians
Warsaw Nike and clematis flammula
Jackmanii and Etoile Violette on very tall supports
unknown pink, Rosemoor, Carnaby, Gazelle
Here are some more from the Montreal Botanic Gardens.
Pink Fantasy
Hagley Hybrid with Blue Boy
clematis brachyura with pinus mugo 'Taunenbaum'
Blue Moon
I couldn't find a label, but assume it is an integrifolia
a white integrifolia
Another without a label
unknown pink and purple viticella types
yet another without a label to be found
Picardy with Angelique
I couldn't find the label for this clematis growing over pinus banksiana 'Schoodic'
Venosa Violacea on left and Warsaw Nike with clematis flammula on the right
These are some truly nice pictures of every ones clematis. Nice ideas for combinations plantlover
nhbabs, I can't find the tags for those clematis so I won't know names till they begin blooming again. Would you buy any chance know the name of the little pink flower at the bottom of your last photo?
What fabulous pictures! Just what I needed to see.
I don't know why I can't find better pics. I adored the pale pink Clem and forgot who she is, but she would bloom forever it seemed! And the second pic is Madame Julia correvon ( I think..)
I am so sad I had to leave these behind. I moved to tennesee from pa and while I love it here I'm a little sick to my stomach thinking about my poor garden and how I'm pretty sure the new owners will be ripping it out and going back to lawn. And it might be ok if I never had to pass the house again, but we used to live on the same street as my in laws and when we go back I'll be forced to see it!
Ok...off to look at more pics to get my mind off of it! :)
sorry I didn't see your question. The second one is Pink Fantasy. It is my favorite pink, love that shade! Mine is in part shade, which doesn't slow it down at all. So I can't tell you if it bleaches in the sun or not. It doesn't get very tall - maybe 5-5.5 feet after 10 years. Happy gardening!
PattyW - You asked about a small pink flower in the bottom of my last photo, but I think that it must be Grow_darnit's last photo in the post immediately following mine since my photos have no little pink flowers.
I love all of your photos. I am so ready for my clematis to start sprouting. It is spitting snow and we are supposed to have another 'storm' early this week. :(
Trying to muliload as Babs indicated and apparently I am challenged in that area. I will have to practice.
Mme Julia Corrovan last June.
Pattyw, that Hagley Hybrid grows through a spirea. I have no idea what kind, the bushes were there when we bought the house. I cut Hagley Hybrid every year to the ground and it completely devours everything around it in just a month. It even climbs lower branches of the sand cherry that grows by the bush.

Today I tried to wash a few and added not only the armon hammer washing soda, but also the borax, 1 scoop of charlies soap, and did a cold water wash and a hot water wash and let them sit and soak in the hot water and did the heavy load and they did seem to come out smelling better than before. That seems like an awful lot to go through and a lot of laundry products!!!! Will the white vinegar hurt the diapers at all. I will try that too if needed. I need to get this right, I have another baby due any time now and my DD is still in CD's, so I will have twice as much now.
I know this was a year ago but did you find anything that worked? I am having the same trouble with my FB inserts. I have tried everything. Thinking of switching to disposables after three years of CD. I just don't think I can keep this up every other day, it takes me all day. And it might be worth it if they came out smelling clean but they don't and it makes my son's skin red.
Soak all diapers in a wet pail with water/vinegar solution. Tried dry pail, stink WAY worse.
Cold wash with borax
Hot wash with detergent
Two cold water rinses
Dry in the sun
Inserts go to full rounds in the dryer on high heat
Any help will be appreciated.
robocop760 - I had the hardest time with smell with my pocket dipes. I am not currently using pockets but here is my regimen:
I only do dipes 2 (sometimes 3) times a week MAX! I keep my diapers in a dry pail. I rinse on med water level in cold water. I wash in HOT with ECOS detergent (I get it from Costco and I love it and it's super cheap!) For the wash I switch to Large Load. Then I go back to med sized load and rinse again in cold. Line dry in sun and finish in dryer for 30 mins. My diapers never EVER smell.
I will occasionally add 1/4c bleach to my wash if DS is getting rashy. I've read that the sun and dryer don't kill all the bacteria and it's good to bleach them once a month. 1/4c in a Large load is not much bleach and equal to a chlorinated swimming pool. My DS has a lot of allergies and very sensitive skin and he does really well with the ECOS and a tiny bit of bleach.
Hope this helps! Keep us updated.
I think I read most of this thread...didn't notice bleach. When we get stink issues of any kind, I put some bleach in. Fixes it every time. I bleach it all when I do it. Wetbags, wipes, pul, fitted, etc... We have a little bit of everything in our stash.
I stopped saving my diapers. I washed every day or every other day. I figured this out with my 2nd daughter. I always used prefolds because they were easy to launder and didn't hold the smell as easily. I used extra soap and hot water on the first wash and, yes, bleach bleach bleach. Not every time nor every week, but regularly. It is the one truly toxic thing in my house. Had a top loader for dd1. Much preferred front loader I got for dd2. I would still wash them twice often, I forget the exact details, but I remember putting vinegar in the "fabric softener" slot. I stopped trying to get a full pail or whatever, the ammonia was overwhelming. For the pail, I washed then swiped it with a vinegar/tea tree oil mix.
I started bleaching my bumGenius' once per month, about a quarter cup. I've done it twice so far and it hasn't hurt the integrity of the dipes, and there is no dirty smell. (bG recommends it...if they didn't, I'd never give it a shot!) :)

My body tends to tell me "oh GOD, that was a HUGE meal. Yikes! I need LOTS of energy to digest it all!"
And it does. Then I get drowsy, and I sleep like a rock. A ROCK.
When I was eating CW (I discovered fasting in my last year or so of CW), I had horrible sleep. I sometimes wouldn't be able to sleep because I was hungry because my last meal would have been at least four hours before bed, my stomach would be empty, I'd be irritable, and telling myself "you can't eat until morning or you'll put it all on as fat."
All of which I have learned from primal, is bullcrap.

An unabashedly romanticized docudrama.
The layers of narrative prove too diffuse, and there is not a good enough arc to hold a cinema audience for the duration.
For lovers of the greatest of outdoors, The Wildest Dream is a worthy excursion, especially on the big IMAX screen.
It will haunt you for days. And inspire you forever.
This hybrid movie combines scenic cinematography, documentary and two very different dramatic recreations of a historical event to tell a fascinating story.
With the exception of some TV-duff recreations and CSI-style razzle-dazzle it is fascinating.
You'll be sweaty-palmed and mildly nauseous -- in the very best way.
The photography is suitably spectacular and there's a starry voice cast...
Respectable but often dry and dull.
The Wildest Dream is an often gripping account of the men who dare to climb toward heaven, and sometimes pay the ultimate price.
In tandem with this bang-up adventure runs Mallory's fascinating life story.
Anker's story is remarkable.
It's all a bit hokey, though the mountaineering footage is often spectacular.
The film skillfully mixes exposition, including Mallory and his wife Ruth's letters read aloud, re-creations, interviews, amazing archival footage and still images of stunning nature photography.
What really brings the past alive in The Wildest Dream is those glorious voices.
Screenwriter Mark Halliley has caught Mallory's passionate obsession and Geffen and his camera team have captured the majesty of the mountain.
Geffen captures stunning images of the mountain as he follows Anker and Houlding in Mallory's footsteps.
You may not believe it's possible to bore people to death with a film about risking your life, but The Wildest Dream comes shockingly close.
The movie excels not in the plentiful shots of Everest's majesty, but in its nuanced depiction of Mallory through interviews, archival footage and letters.
It's about a love triangle -- unusual because the home-wrecking third party is the largest mountain in the world.
Audience Reviews for The Wildest Dream: Conquest of Everest
"Why do you want to climb Mount Everest?"
"Because it's there".....haunting and inspiring, i wish he did conquer the Everest in 1924.

A really interesting story (both past and present) and amazing footage of a place that most of us will never go.
