WASHINGTON — U.S. President Donald Trump has picked budget director Mick Mulvaney to be his acting chief of staff, ending a chaotic search in which several top contenders took themselves out of the running for the job.
Trump’s first pick for the job, Vice-President Mike Pence’s chief of staff Nick Ayers, took himself out of the running last weekend and decided to leave the White House instead. The decision caught the president and many senior staffers by surprise, and Trump soon found that others he considered front-runners were not interested in the job.
Mulvaney had signalled in recent weeks that he wasn’t interested in being chief of staff, with a person close to him telling reporters that he’d made clear that he would me more interested in taking over as secretary of the Treasury or Commerce. But the White House officials disputed reports that captured that sentiment, and said the president didn’t need to change Mulvaney’s mind. | 2019-04-21T04:18:23 | https://canoe.com/news/world/trump-picks-mick-mulvaney-to-be-next-chief-of-staff |
I was torn between whether to send very few guards since this is likely a stealth mission or whether to send a lot so that Brenna doesn't die if the dwarfs catch us. I go with the standard exploration party size as a compromise. Hey, she's a trickster, brute force isn't her style. And if the only race in Glorlantha with access to gunpowder wants us to die, the only difference a larger party will make is how many corpses are left in their mines.
Oh god everyone is going to kill me for not sending our entire army with her. We also lost a point of magic for this.
According to the last LP, choosing this option is a Very Bad Idea. I think the only reason Garstal survived(with a smaller guard, no less!) then was that he had awesome stats. It doesn't help that we're the Perpetual Bad Luck clan. So really, this is the fault of everyone who voted for this option. It also means that Elmalandti was wrong for once; old age must be getting to him. I usually leave the dwarfs alone in my own game, so I don't know if it's even possible for this option to succeed.
The Blue Jays are suing for peace already. They're offering 24 cows for two years of peace. I have no idea who the hell we're going to raid if we accept, because the Vostangi are still paying their annual tribute and we're busy trying to get the rest of our neighbors to like us. That said, the gods of war generally aren't too bothered if a Balanced clan skips raiding for a year or two, and the game does provide a warning if we're going too long without raiding.
-"Raiding you is the only thing that will fill the hole in our hearts left by the death of Brenna. So, no."
We can afford to be generous to them. Or we can smash them! | 2019-04-20T06:11:28 | https://lparchive.org/King-of-Dragon-Pass-%28by-Haifisch%29/Update%20199/ |
After a weekend at the lake Ky and I headed to our beautiful home state of Nebraska. My love for Nebraska is deep. It grows even more being away. I absolutely love how energizing it is going back and am always amazed by the cooler-by-the-minute Omaha. The vibes from that city are nice.
I will never get tired of this sign. Please don’t change it!

As we moved into the middle of April, river levels remained on the high side on the River Findhorn and River Spey with snow melting water keeping levels topped up each day.
On Monday, April 16th, river levels were reading 2’4” on the Forres gauge and it was a sunny and bright day with a cool north easterly breeze. Local angler, Alisdair Ker managed to hook and release his first Spring salmon of the season, a cracking sea-liced fish of around 8 lbs. from the Roan Pool on the Lower Beat. Greg Gibb also hooked another fresh fish, which threw the hooks and was away!
It was great to see our old friend, Lukasz Materek, back on Altyre, for Wednesday, April 18th with his two sons Maks and Ben, who are becoming extremely proficient Spey Casters and needless to say, they have had one of the best tutors to teach them all about good salmon fishing and Spey casting! River levels had risen overnight and were reading 2’9” on the Forres guage. The river continued to rise and fall throughout the day, which was not ideal fly fishing conditions. However, the boys managed to enjoy some sport with a couple of well mended salmon and sea trout kelts through the day.
On Thursday, April 19th, river levels had fallen slightly reading 2’5” on the Forres gauge. Alistair Foyers from Cawdor managed to hook and release his first Spring fish of the season of around 10 lbs. The fish was caught from the Tail of Meads Pool on Altyre Estate, Lower Beat on a ½” Monkey tube fly. Just a short while later on he had another good pull from the same spot, but it didn’t stick!
River levels continued to yo-yo for much of the week and never falling below the two foot mark until later on in the week. By Saturday, April 21st, river levels had fallen away and reading 1’7” on the Forres gauge, but apart from a well mended kelt there were no other fresh fish hooked.
On Monday, April 23rd, river levels had fallen away quite quickly over the weekend reading 8” on the Forres gauge and rising on the back of snow melt water to 11” later in the day. It was a cloudy/overcast day with rain showers falling on and off. I was joined by two of my regular clients David Tisdale and Robert Booth, together with new clients, Halli Eirickson and Jon Jonsson from Iceland who were fishing the River Findhorn for the first time. Robert Booth was unlucky to hook and lose a fresh fish from the tail of Soldier’s Hole Pool before lunch.
On Tuesday, April 24th, river levels had risen overnight and reading 1’2” on the Forres gauge. It was another cloudy day with a few sunny spells, but feeling quite cool early on in the day. Later in the afternoon, Jon Jonsson hooked and landed his first fresh fish of the season and also his first Findhorn salmon from the Roan Pool. It was lovely deep fish of around 6 lbs., covered in long-tailed sea lice and hooked on a BUS (Big Ugly Snaelda) tube fly from the top of Roan Pool on the Upper Beat!
On Thursday, April 26th, I was joined by my regular Norwegian party comprising, Johan Peter Oren, Morten Taule, Vermund Girstein and Tom Handal. River levels had fallen away and reading 7” on the Forres gauge, rising to 10” later in the day. Despite seeing fish running, there was no fish pulled or hooked. On Friday, April 27th river levels were at 9” on the Forres gauge rising to 1’2” later on. It was cloudy and overcast with a few odd showers, but feeling decidedly warmer than of late. Fish had been seen running in Soldier’s Hole and Roehillock Pools just after lunch. Morten Taule briefly hooked and lost a fresh fish in Roan Pool later in the day. However, despite all best efforts there were no other fish hooked or landed.
As we moved into week commencing April 30th, river levels started to fall away quite quickly. Some heavy rain on the afternoon and evening of May 1st gave river levels a needed top up and by Wednesday, May 3rd, levels were back up to 1’2” on the Forres gauge. I was joined by another new party of anglers, Rufus Drabble and Tom Mathieson fishing on Altyre Lower Beat for three days. Tom Mathieson hooked and released our first sea trout of the season of around 2 lbs. from Clerks Pool on the Lower Beat. As the rest of the week progressed, river levels remained at a good fishable height, but unfortunately the fishing had become a bit slower and no more fish were caught.
On Monday, May 7th, on Altyre Estate, River Findhorn I was joined by another regular group of clients, David Clark and Peter James. Einar Mathieson from Norway and Malcolm Dutchman-Smith were joining the party for the first time. River levels were reading 7” on the Forres gauge and rising to 10” later on the back snow melting water from the River Findhorn catchment. It has been a while since we have enjoyed such good snow melting water conditions running into early May. Weather wise, it was a mixture of sunshine and showers, but feeling much warmer.
David Clark was the first off the mark for the week with a cracking sea-liced fish of around 8 lbs., hooked and released from William’s Run on a size 8 double Purple Cascade.
By Tuesday, May 8th river levels were back down to 7” on the Forres gauge, but rising again later on in the day to 10”. It was another day of sunshine and cloud, feeling very warm by the afternoon. Einar Mathieson hooked and released another cracking fresh fish of around 9 lbs., his first ever Findhorn salmon on his favourite Dynamite tube fly, also from William’s Run on the Upper Beat! By Wednesday, May 9th, river levels were reading 6” on the Forres gauge and a small rise of 1” later on in the day brought levels up to 7”. Einar Mathieson hooked and released another strong fish of around 10 lbs., again from William’s Run on the Upper Beat and once again his Dynamite tube fly did the trick!
As the rest of the week progressed, river levels started falling away, remaining at a steady 5” on the Forres gauge. It appeared that our much needed snow melt water had finally diminished from the River Findhorn catchment and we were now going to be dependent on rainfall to give river levels any kind of rise. As high pressure was firmly establishing itself over the country, the chances of any rainfall coming our way were looking pretty slim.
By Monday, May 21st, river levels were reading just 4” on the Forres gauge and there was the promise of some rain! I was joined by Chris and Ivan Wall and newcomers to the River Findhorn Freddie White from Gibralter and Greer Ramsey from Northern Ireland. Unfortunately, the rainfall did not amount to too much although levels were given a reasonable boost of around 4” by Wednesday, May 23rd and the river was looking in much better order. However, the day had become very warm once again and overhead conditions were making for very difficult fly fishing. Freddie and Greer decided to leave the river early and came back later on in the evening for a last cast. Although they did not manage to connect with a fish apart from one pull, they both reported seeing a really good run of fresh fish moving through all of the pools from Soldier’s Hole down to the Garden Pool, as they fished into the darkness. Full marks for a good effort indeed!
At least it is always good to know of more fresh Spring fish running into the River Findhorn system off the high tides. Bearing in mind that everything is running at least three weeks late this season, I am still feeling optimistic, that given a change of weather and some decent rainfall, we will still see more fresh Spring salmon running into the river Findhorn system over the upcoming weeks.
Please do contact me, ian@speycaster.net, for further information on availability for guided salmon fishing on the River Findhorn, River Spey and River Dee.

Dropbox has given its search function for desktop a much-needed boost by making it more like its mobile app counterpart. Now, when you tap on the little Dropbox icon sitting on Windows’ system tray or Mac’s menu bar, you’ll find a search bar where you can type in your query. Its results will include not just the files synced and saved on your computer, but everything relevant it can find in your account. If you have a Professional or Business account, it can even search for text within documents.
In addition, the cloud service is beefing up search on its website, giving you the power to filter results by file types. Like Google Drive’s similar filtering system, you’ll be able to narrow down your options by choosing to see just images, documents, PDFs or any of the other seven file types available in your results window. The new feature will also benefit from the service’s optimized search function, which Dropbox says is now 65 percent faster than before.
Finally, the company is working on a feature that will let you sort results based on the date they were modified, so you can quickly find the files you accessed most recently. That one’s not available yet, but Dropbox promises that it’s coming soon. | 2019-04-20T19:10:03 | https://snipblog.com/dropbox-brings-its-simple-mobile-search-to-the-desktop/ |
For years, farmers were told that if only U.S. agriculture was freed to produce for the market all their problems would be over.
In 1996, Congress passed legislation that removed acreage controls, permitted growers to freely switch crops and provided transition payments to wean agriculture away from price supports. So, why aren't farmers better off than they were five years ago?
That's the question Daryll E. Ray has attempted to answer in an article in the monthly "Policy Matters" newsletter published by the University of Tennessee's Agricultural Policy Analysis Center.
The reason Freedom to Farm hasn't brought prosperity to American farmers, he says, is that the underlying concept behind the legislation is flawed.
"By its design, the 1996 farm legislation provides a real-time public policy experiment where the farm economy is the laboratory and agricultural producers and consumers are the test subjects," he said.
"The hypothesis under test is this: Without planting restrictions, price supports and other government program interventions, grain producers and grain users will respond to price signals sufficiently to overcome market disturbances and inventory imbalances. For the last seven decades, we could only speculate about how this would work."
Unfortunately, the experiment has shown that what agricultural economists have theorized is true; that is, the price responsiveness of the grain markets is not sufficient to keep supply and demand in balance.
Ray notes that while prices of the eight major commodities declined by 15.5 percent between March 1997 and March 1999, harvested acreage of those crops declined by only 1.5 percent. And, even with depressed prices, growers appear to have increased their plantings in 2000.
As the economist has outlined in previous issues of the newsletter, there's a simple reason why farmers cannot voluntarily reduce acreage when confronted with low prices: Until U.S. agriculture completely goes belly-up, someone is going to farm the land.
Thus, unless weather intervenes, farmers will plant every acre they can and crop surpluses will continue to build despite the low prices of recent years.
"Over time, some of the least productive land will go out of production," says Ray. "But this land produces very little, and much of it is already in the Conservation reserve Program. So, it is doubtful a `let them fail' course of action advanced by some would solve the economic problem in the short to immediate run.
"It would probably take a decade of extremely depressed prices to reduce the total crop acreage sufficiently to make agriculture profitable in the open market. The economic damage inflicted on the farming and rural communities during this period would be staggering."
If the value of Freedom to Farm is to be judged on the basis of lessons learned, then it hasn't been a total loss, according to Ray. "Freedom to Farm appears to be reaffirming the basic assumptions of traditional agricultural economics that the price responsiveness of the grain markets is not sufficient to bring about a timely self-correction in those markets."
If that is the case, Congress should be thinking about the alternatives before they saddle farmers with another seven years of a program that doesn't work. | 2019-04-20T23:07:19 | https://www.farmprogress.com/lets-not-waste-lessons-freedom-farm |

Official statistics suggest industry output is at a record high and this buoyancy continued to be reflected in contractors’ enthusiastic responses to Experian Business Strategies’ monthly survey. After prolonged growth, speculation inevitably surfaces about the threats that may destabilise the industry. One such risk is that the housing market is not sustainable and that a sharp correction is on the cards, especially as the risk to interest rates is the highest in five years.
However, while these threats cannot be ignored, in the current environment they are unlikely to dampen the industry’s confidence. The responses to our survey certainly support this viewpoint. In May the overall activity index rose by one point to 61. The orders index fell marginally, but remained high, suggesting that order books continued to be healthy for the time of year. The other forward looking indicators, tender enquiries and employment prospects, were also strong in May. The non-residential tender enquiries index increased by six points from April to 64 while the employment prospects index stood at 55 after dropping one point.
The non-residential was the strongest; three out of four of its indicators increased during the month. Its activity index reached 64, five points higher than in April, and the orders index climbed six points to 79. However, it was the strength of non-residential tender enquiries that stood out. The non-residential tender enquiries index reached an all-time high of 73. Changes to the residential sector’s indicators were more subdued and its position remained relatively strong. Civil engineering was weaker than a month ago.
According to the leading activity indicator, a short-term forecasting model, the outlook for the construction industry remains strong, but some slowing in the rate of growth will not come as a surprise. From 62 in May, the short term indicator is forecast to fall to 59 in June, and to drop a further point in August.
(The indicator uses a base level of 50 – above that level shows an increase, below that level a decrease).
In April, for most respondents in the residential, non-residential and civil engineering sectors, annual labour cost inflation was 5% or less. Such levels were reported by 67% of civil engineering and 70% of residential and non-residential respondents. Labour cost inflation of more than 7.5% was not reported by any civil engineering firms, but 15% of building firms encountered a cost burden of this size.
Respondents were last quizzed on the level of labour cost inflation they faced three months ago and, since then, inflation in the civil engineering sector has moderated. On the building side, however, labour cost pressures have intensified and, for many respondents, annual labour cost inflation was much higher than three months ago.
Regional composite indicators, incorporating activity, orders and tender enquiries from the past three months, provide a measure of the relative strength of each region’s construction industry. This month’s results suggest there was something of a North/South divide in May. The southerly regions saw their regional composite indicators rise, while declines were common in their northern counterparts.
Indicators for the South-east and South-west climbed by one point to 65 and 69 respectively, while falls were seen in Scotland, the North-west, Yorkshire and Humberside, the West Midlands and East Anglia.
Northern Ireland is in the midst of a construction boom, and was the star regional performer in May. Its indicator climbed by nine points to 87, a record level for the region itself and particularly significant considering that no other region’s indicator managed to scrape past 70.
Apart from Northern Ireland’s robust performance and marginal increases in the South-east and South-west, Wales was the only other region to see its indicator rise in May. It climbed by five points to 62.
For Yorkshire and Humberside’s industry, May was a weaker month. Its indicator dropped below 50 for the first time since April 2006. Although a value of 49 is on the borderline, construction activity is unlikely to have increased during the month. | 2019-04-25T06:12:04 | https://www.building.co.uk/data/up-and-at-em/3091619.article |
Will It Stop a Bullet? #2 | Shooting Fire Extinguishers, Lighters, Gummy & more!

Japanese vending machines will dispense for free while displaying onscreen advertising.
If you thought commercialism of all sorts and advertising in general were pervasive in the West, then you've probably never been to Japan, where inducements to buy have been elevated to an art form. Given that background, it was only a matter of time before even the nation's food and drink became vehicles for venerating the sacred coin, as seen in the latest vending machines there.
Drinks vendor Apex recently realised that the 35,000 vending machines it operates in offices, stations and various public places across Japan could be used to push products other than vile-tasting hot liquids and so has instituted the MediCafe machine, featuring on-screen advertising.
The new auto-vendor will appear in June, has a central LCD screen that is either 19 or 10.4 inches across and which displays ads of either 15 or 30 seconds' duration. Naturally, the concept relies upon bored folk staring at the ads while waiting for their drink to vend.
Their reward? A free drink, representing a saving each time of around ¥80 (33 pence). The other side of the equation for Apex and partnered advertising agency WillB is likely to be a tasty ¥400 million (£1.7 million) in the first year of operation.
Should potential advertisers fear that people will just look at something else while waiting (or perhaps even talk to a colleague), they can rest safe in the knowledge that all cups dispensed will also feature whatever they see fit to print on them. | 2019-04-23T21:17:24 | https://www.techradar.com/au/news/world-of-tech/future-tech/coin-op-drinks-machines-vend-free-with-ads-153039 |

ronk phase converter wiring diagram – What’s Wiring Diagram? A wiring diagram is a type of schematic which uses abstract pictorial symbols to demonstrate every one of the interconnections of components inside a system. Wiring diagrams comprise a couple of things: symbols that represent the ingredients within the circuit, and lines that represent the connections with shod and non-shod. Therefore, from wiring diagrams, you know the relative location of the constituents and just how they are connected. It’s a language engineers should find out after they work on electronics projects.
A first look at the circuit diagram could be confusing, but if search for a subway map, read schematics. The purpose is the identical: getting from point A to point out B. Literally, a circuit will be the path that allows electricity to flow. If you know what to look for, it’ll become second nature. While in the beginning you’ll try to be reading them, eventually you may start creating your own personal. This guide will reveal a number of the common symbols that you will be sure to see inside your future electrical engineering career.
Voltage: Measured in volts (V), voltage may be the ‘pressure’ or ‘force’ of electricity. This is generally given by an assortment (like a 9V battery) or “mains electricity,” the outlets in your house operate at 120V. Outlets in other countries operate with a different voltage, and that’s why you will need a converter when traveling.
Resistance: Measured in Ohms (R or Ω), resistance defines how easily electrons can flow through a material. Materials for example gold or copper, are known as conductors, while they easily allow flow of motion (low resistance). Plastic, wood, and air are types of insulators, inhibiting the movement of electrons (high resistance). | 2019-04-22T10:16:27 | https://faceitsalon.com/ronk-phase-converter-wiring-diagram/ |

The SGM-1X Professional Shotgun Microphone is designed to provide quality audio for the videographer. Suitable for both camera-mount and boom mic applications, this hyper-directional, super-cardioid shotgun microphone has a wide frequency response, exhibits low noise and accepts up to 120dB SPL input levels. The 12.3″ long microphone uses a single “AAA” battery that will last for over 1000 hours of use due to the mic’s extremely low current drain. The low-impedance XLR output allows for a balanced (low-noise) connection to cameras and mixers. The SGM-1X ships complete with a windscreen and Azden’s proprietary shock-mount holder that isolates the microphone from camera motor noise and extraneous vibrations. The shock-mount holder has provisions for both camera-shoe and mic-stand mounting. | 2019-04-21T00:49:13 | https://www.avshop.ca/sound-amp-pa-audio-microphones-shotgun-microphones/azden-sgm-1x-professional-shotgun-microphone |

Your day never just goes from 9 to 5. You work hard and play harder. Get a pair of shoes that can comfortably and stylishly keep up with your hectic schedule. The Ayla Paige slip-on shoe from Cloudsteppers by Clarks features a removable, molded Ortholite® footbed and padded Cushion Soft™ foam layers so you can treat your feet every day of the week.
My feet love them except for that tiny spot of fabric at the very back where they come up higher than I'm used to & they rub me raw. I'm hoping my heels will callous over in time. Otherwise the fit is perfect and the insole feels great.
These shoes are really comfortable and cute but they run very long. About a half size. I will change mine for a half size smaller.
I really liked the look/feel of these shoes. The color (green), weight and cushion was perfect. The problem was they were super narrow. I ordered a wide knowing Clark's shoes run narrow, I have owned the brand in the past. I was shock when I received the shoes. The shoes stated wide, but I don't know under what standard. I checked them against several other pairs of similar style, regular (B) width shoes (my normal width). They were narrower than every pair. I was truly disappointed. | 2019-04-23T17:06:57 | https://www.hsn.com/products/cloudsteppers-by-clarks-ayla-paige-slip-on-shoe/8898459?variant=8898478 |

Katy, TX Blogs (April 19, 2017) – Elena Carlberg and her husband David have been best friends since they met over 20 years ago when she was just 18. Today, she’s mom to their 11 biological children and counting her blessings one by one. Katy Magazine caught up with Elena to compile some of her best advice for other Katy supermoms.
Since organization has never been one of Elena’s strengths, she relies on minimalism to keep things running smoothly. “I have 13 of everything in the cupboard,” she says. “Thirteen white plates, 13 white bowls, and 13 cups.” And in her hall closet, there are 13 towels. “Each child has enough clothes for two weeks’ worth of school, and that’s all,” she says.
Elena is always making her family laugh; whether it’s by talking in her silly Marilyn Monroe voice or encouraging Arya to use her English accent. “I don’t know if I’m funny, or if my husband and kids are just easily amused,” she laughs.
When it comes to the nighttime routine, they divide and conquer. “David and I tackle it together and high-five each other when they’re finally all in bed. It’s like completing a marathon,” she says. Her husband’s support doesn’t end there. “When I’m having a rough day, I can always count on him to try to make me feel better,” she adds.
“We order our groceries online and use the pick-up service. This new option has been life-changing for us,” she says. Every night’s dinner has a theme. Monday might be breakfast for dinner and Tuesday is Italian night. The following week, they just change up the menu items but still follow the theme.
With more kids come more messes, but also more help. Alec and Aidan do laundry and take out the trash. Andrew and Abby are the sweepers, Adam is the duster, and Ashton cleans counters. Addison and Adrian are in charge of getting everything off the floor. “Annie keeps an eye out for me, ensuring everyone is doing their job properly,” says Elena. Annie, who has cerebral palsy, is also in charge of their music and the family agrees that she has amazing taste. They often listen to John Williams, The Beatles, or Prince.
Elena says David uses any spare time to play with or teach the children new things. “David listens intently when the kids talk,” she shares. As a result, the kids shower him with love, devotion, and sincere affection. “When you focus on the individuals you’re around, rather than just the things that need to get done, the result is deeper relationships. What you get out of a relationship is dependent upon what you put into it,” she adds.
Katy, TX (March 10, 2017) – Has the “stomach bug” hit your household? It might be the highly contagious Norovirus. Read on for some information and tips from Texas Children’s Hospital West Campus.
Norovirus is a highly contagious virus that causes acute gastroenteritis. Following introduction of rotavirus vaccination, norovirus has become the most common cause of gastroenteritis in adults and children. Viral gastroenteritis is an infection that can cause diarrhea and vomiting. It happens when a person’s stomach and intestines get infected with a virus. Both adults and children can get viral gastroenteritis. The Center for Disease Control estimates norovirus to be responsible for 19-21 million illnesses, including 50,000 to 70,000 hospitalizations as well as 570 to 800 child deaths every year in the U.S. alone. Anyone can get infected with norovirus and become sick.
How do kids contract it?
Your child can become infected with norovirus by accidentally getting vomit or stool from infected people in their mouth. While that may sound weird, this usually happens by: consuming contaminated food or drink, touching contaminated surfaces or objects then putting fingers in the mouth or having contact with someone infected with norovirus. Typically, norovirus outbreaks happen when infected people spread the virus to others. Outbreaks can occur in numerous institutional settings including schools, child care centers and colleges because it lives on surfaces and is resistant to many common disinfectants.
Someone with norovirus is most contagious when they are sick and the first few days after they recover.
The most common symptoms of norovirus include; diarrhea, throwing up, nausea and stomach pain. Other symptoms can include; fever, headache and body aches.
These symptoms usually appear within 12 to 48 hours of being exposed to norovirus. For most people, norovirus illness is not serious and they get better in one to three days. A person may become extremely ill and throw up or experience diarrhea multiple times a day which can lead to dehydration. Symptoms of dehydration include; decreased urination, dry mouth and throat, and feeling dizzy when standing up. Young children who are dehydrated may cry with fewer tears and usually are sleepy and fussy.
How do you treat norovirus?
Unfortunately, there is no specific medicine to treat people infected with the norovirus illness. Norovirus cannot be treated with antibiotics because it is a viral – not bacterial – infection. If your child has the norovirus illness have them drink plenty of liquids to replace fluid lost from throwing up and diarrhea to help prevent dehydration.
What’s the best way to prevent Norovirus?
These tips will help protect you and your child from norovirus.
Always wash your hands with soap and water before eating, preparing or handling food and especially after changing diapers or using the restroom.
Wash fruits and vegetables and cook seafood thoroughly before preparing or consuming them.
Do not prepare foods or care for others when you are sick and for at least two days after symptoms stop.
Immediately remove and wash clothes or linens that may be contaminated with vomit or stool. You should handle soiled items carefully by wearing gloves and washing your hands after.
Clean and disinfect any surfaces thought to be contaminated.
The CDC recommends using a chlorine bleach solutions with a concentration of 1000-5000 ppm; about 5 to 25 tablespoons of household bleach per gallon of water.

Katy, TX (February 27, 2017) – Parker Brown, a 5-year-old Katy boy with hydrocephalus who loves cars and blowing bubbles, shows others that living with a disease can’t stop him from enjoying life.
The path of life is different for every family, with unique plans for everyone. A big part of the Brown family plan was revealed over five years ago, when Dave and Leah Brown found out they were going to be the parents of a very special little boy.
At Leah’s 20-week ultrasound, where doctors commonly check the anatomy of the growing baby inside the mom, it showed that Parker had an excess of fluid in his brain, a condition called congenital hydrocephalus. The fluid surrounding Parker’s brain was not allowing his brain to grow as a normal one would, and was causing great damage. Fluid was pushing his brain to the outside of his skull, making the brain appear almost non-existent.
Parker Mason Brown was born at 36 weeks on September 16, 2011 via C-section. Two days after his birth, Parker had his first brain surgery, where the doctors removed two pounds of fluid, and inserted a brain shunt. A shunt is a device with tubing that allows the cerebrospinal fluid from the brain to flow out through a tube down to the abdomen where the fluid is absorbed back into the body. Parker’s first shunt was placed at the back of his skull, near his neck area.
Parker was at Texas Children’s Hospital in the care of the NICU for 16 days following his birth. “Saying that now, it sounds very short, only 16 days, but when you are going through all of that, those days feel like a lifetime,” says Leah. Leah and Dave learned how to feed baby Parker through the use of a feeding tube enabling them to bring him home.
A side effect of hydrocephalus is epilepsy, and at 3 months old, Parker began having seizures. His seizures, controlled with a daily medication, usually occur now when he outgrows his dosage. “You learn to deal with it and how to handle it,” says Leah, as this is just part of her everyday life.
At 6 months, his brain shunt failed. Shunt failure is very common, and Parker had a second brain surgery to receive a new one placed near the front, right side of his head. When Leah discusses the shunt and the procedure, little Parker will reach to the top of his head and feel for it. He doesn’t mind if others see and touch it; he’s even proud to show off the scars on his neck and abdomen.
Currently, Parker attends a PPCD (preschool program for children with disabilities) in Katy. He has a daily routine and seems to love school. Leah and Dave want Parker to be around other children his age because he rarely is and interacts mostly with adults. When asked what his favorite part of school is, Parker says, “riding the school bus,” which makes sense, as Parker is infatuated with cars and garages. He loves to go for rides around the neighborhood, and different neighbors will swing by to take him for a ride. Parker says shyly, “My favorite car is a Corolla.” He loves them so much that a Corolla even made his Christmas list!
Parker works with physical therapists to build up his weaker muscles, on applied behavior therapy for life skills, and occupational therapy for motor skills. Parker is about the size of his little sister Emery who is 2 years old. Leah says that Emery and Parker are starting to interact some, and Emery has a sense that Parker is not typical. She often lends him a hand with things; for example, when they are playing with bubbles. Parker has a tremor with his arm and hand so sometimes it is hard for him to hold the bubble wand, so Emery will help her brother out.
Sweet and cuddly definitely describe Parker. He loves to touch, feel, and be loved on. Leah recalls a time when they were out shopping, waiting to check out, and Parker reached out and started rubbing on another shopper’s behind. “It is quite embarrassing. People look at us as if we are crazy because my son is rubbing on them. They don’t realize that he doesn’t know not to do that to strangers,” says Leah.

Katy, TX (February 13, 2017) – Valentine’s Day has become a holiday filled with lots of candy and treats. Try to take the focus away from all of the candy this year by making some delicious and healthy treats with your children instead! Red fruits like strawberries, cherries, pomegranates and raspberries are natural ingredients for Valentine’s Day treats. Frozen fruits are a good substitute if you can’t find a fresh alternative and will work in many of the recipes below.
Yogurt Granola Parfaits* – Making a yogurt granola parfait is a great way to start the day! Use a variety of red fruits for a pretty, layered Valentine’s Day look.
Fruity Greek Yogurt Popsicles – These simple cool treats can be made quickly and are a family favorite in my house.
Wild Berry Blast Smoothie Bowl – Looking for a fun twist on smoothies? Try a smoothie bowl – there are so many different pairings to choose from! The linked blog post includes a free e-book filled with fun, kid-friendly smoothie bowl recipes, as well as adult coloring pages. How fun is that?!
Mini Heart-Shaped Lemon Chia Cheesecakes – I love mini desserts since they are perfectly portioned, and this fun recipe is no exception!
Chocolate Cherry Avocado Muffins – This is still one of my favorite muffin recipes! The muffins are delicious, and they contain several heart-healthy ingredients.
Apple Peanut Butter Pops* – These are a fun alternative to cake pops and, when cut into a heart shape, can serve as the perfect Valentine treat. Use soy butter or sunflower butter in place of the peanut butter if nut allergies are a concern.
Heart-Shaped Graham Crackers – Have you ever tried to make your own graham crackers?
It is easier than you might think. Spread with cream cheese and strawberry slices for a fun snack.
Sweet and Salty Pretzels* – Chocolate-dipped pretzels are simple and fun to make. They are a great way to balance a little sugar with a slightly healthier option. Wrap them in a festive goody bag to share with friends!
*Based on recommendations from the American Academy of Pediatrics, certain foods like nuts, seeds, hard pretzels, etc. may pose choking or allergy risks for children under the age of 4. Please consult your child’s pediatrician before serving these foods to children under age 4.
Katy, TX (January 10, 2017) It’s no secret that young children are full of natural energy, and it’s often more difficult getting them to sit still than be active. But did you know that the amount of time children spend daily being physically active is decreasing? Despite children’s active nature, it’s still important for parents to encourage and support their physical development starting from birth. Research shows that children who develop basic motor skills through physical activity are more likely to become healthy, active adults, and there is increasing evidence that daily physical activity helps children perform better academically and avoid anxiety and depression in their teenage years.
As part of the Balanced Learning approach, children at Primrose School engage in physical activity each day through the Thumbs Up!® program. Through Thumbs Up!, children practice proper techniques for movement, balance and motor skills through fun exercises like running, hopping, throwing, catching, bouncing and more. Thumbs Up! balances structured, teacher-guided games and skill development with free play, which helps children develop physically and psychologically. Studies show that children exert themselves more during free play and learn essential life skills like decision-making, problem-solving, creativity and self-control as they exercise their curiosity and explore their environment. Even infants develop physical coordination and build early motor skills through group play, games and exercise.
Thumbs Up! activities are brought to life by the Primrose School teaching staff, who participate in all activities and encourage children throughout the lessons. The Primrose approach to physical development also follows the highest professional standards and guidelines for developmentally appropriate practice developed by the National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) and the Council for Physical Education for Children (COPEC).

Katy, TX – December 22, 2016 Internationally ranked professional golfer Patrick Reed stopped by Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital with his wife, Justine, to deliver special treats for pediatric patients who are hospitalized during the holidays.
Katy, TX – December 22, 2016 Fourth graders at Griffin Elementary gave the gift of warmth, and advice, to newborns and their mothers at Memorial Hermann Katy Hospital. The students knitted caps for the newborns and wrote letters to the parents, offering “words of wisdom”. It’s a part of their “Caps for Cubs” program. Women who give birth at Memorial Hermann Katy will have the opportunity to take home the caps and letters over the next few weeks.
Katy, TX – December 12, 2016 Children who bite others cause a great deal of concern for the parents. The parents of the child who has been bitten are also usually very concerned about infection. Biting is an unacceptable behavior that needs to be stopped at an early age to prevent it from happening again.
Biting is fairly common in young children, and it is often worrisome to adults. A family member, playmate, or classmate at daycare or preschool may be the one bitten. Biting can be painful and frightening when it happens. It upsets other children and often angers teachers and other adults.
Experimental biting is done by infants and toddlers as they explore their world. They put everything in their mouths and sometimes bite in the process. You can help decrease biting by telling them, “No—biting hurts!” and being firm. Offer them things that they can safely bite on such as teething rings.
Supervise young children’s play closely. Try to recognize frustration and intervene before the biting happens.
If biting happens, say, “No, don’t bite. Biting hurts.” and remove your child from the situation right away. Stay with your child and help him or her to calm down. Explore other, better ways to handle the situation with your child, so he or she learns to handle emotions differently next time.
Make sure your child feels protected and is not always being “picked on” by others.
If biting happens, tell your child that he or she is not to bite and remove him or her from the situation right away. Stay with your child and help him or her to calm down. Explore other, better ways to handle the situation with your child, so he or she learns to handle emotions differently next time.
Try to find out what is bothering your child. Watch for what happens right before the biting happens.
If your child bites, respond firmly, but calmly, to the biting. Let your child know that you disapprove and remove him or her from the situation. Help your child learn new ways to handle things. If your child bites repeatedly, be sure to talk with your child’s healthcare provider about the problem.
If you catch your child biting, use a firm “no” to stop the behavior, or try to stop the child before the biting actually happens.
Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina) and a skin rash. Hand, foot and mouth disease is often confused with foot-and-mouth disease (also called hoof-and-mouth disease), a disease of cattle, sheep and swine. However, the two diseases are caused by different viruses and are not related.
Hand, foot and mouth disease is highly contagious and is spread from person to person. The time period of contagion is the highest during the first week of the illness; however, the disease can stay in the body for weeks after all symptoms are gone and still be spreading the disease. Adults with no symptoms may also be spreading the virus without knowing they have the disease.
Treatment for hand, foot and mouth disease includes taking over-the-counter medication to relieve pain and fever, such as acetaminophen or using mouthwashes or sprays to numb any mouth pain. However, if you are concerned and/or symptoms worsen, seek medical attention.

It’s Tuesday morning. The company holiday party is four days away and your babysitter just backed out. Instead of working on your job, you’re working the phone trying to line up a sitter.
It’s Thursday evening. Your fifth-grader has a band concert; your kindergartner has no interest in sitting still for two hours, but who’s available to watch her?
When Grandma and Grandpa are out of town and the high school neighbor is busy with her own social life, the options for parents are limited. They can either spend hours on the phone trying to line up a sitter or put their lives on hold (again)!
In a world where you can find a date, order a pizza and binge watch every episode of “Gilmore Girls” all from your smartphone, the solution is just an app away.
The My Sitters™ App from College Sitters connects moms and dads who need help with qualified, reliable sitters who have a passion for watching kids.
Mom or Dad downloads the app and sets up a time for an in-home consultation. At that one-time meeting, our Family Placement Manager gets to know the family – how many kids they have, what their interests are, if they have any pets or allergies. This process helps College Sitters match families with the right sitters.
After that meeting, a set of sitters is assigned to the family. Whenever you need one, booking is as easy as sending a text. Mom or Dad can pull up a calendar and scroll through the available babysitters. When they’ve chosen their favorite, they book a date and time right on their phone. Within a very short period of time (sometimes only minutes), they’ll get a confirmation directly from the sitter.
The actual event is just as simple. College Sitters arrive on time and provide their own transportation – no picking them up and dropping them off! Plus, there’s no reason to stop at the ATM to get cash. Parents get billed through the app on a biweekly basis.
It’s a win-win for the babysitters, too. The initial meeting ensures the home environment is safe for them. They are employees of College Sitters, who get a steady paycheck and on-going training. This means parents can feel confident their kids will be safe and happy while they’re out.
The My Sitters App can’t solve every problem for parents. But, at least your sleepless nights will be because of a crying baby and not over the stress of finding a sitter.
Growing up in Katy was one of the best things my parents could have done for me. I was raised a Winborn Eagle, A Katy Tiger, and a member of girl scouts, KYF, and more. Although I didn’t get to fulfill my dream of being a Katy Tiger, I was still able to appreciate everything Katy had to offer. However, besides a great education and amazing town experiences from little league games to the Katy Rice Harvest Festival, my most favorite treasures are my friends.
At the age of four years old, my parents enrolled me in Williamsburg Country Day School and it was there that I met some of my best friends. Soon after, I began my six years at Diane Winborn Elementary, and met some of the best friends that I still have today.
Growing up in Katy made it easy to grow with these friends. We all did girl scouts and attended local town events. We joined the community and participated in almost everything together, even leaving home. Fast forward through high school, and we have arrived at June 2011. We all graduated from High School and were ready to leave Katy. Most of us went to the same place, the place I have called home for the past four years.
One by one, we all traveled to College Station. Some of us went straight to Texas A&M and some of us enrolled at Blinn in hopes to one day be an Aggie. With all these people here, the transition was supposed to be easy. However, I found myself missing home. I started going home a lot, and taking advantage of all of my childhood experiences. I went and rode the rides at the Rice Harvest Festival, sat at Starbucks in La Centerra, and walked around Katy Mills Mall as if I was 13 again. Although this was fun and all, I knew I had to let go, and fully immerse myself in this Aggie town. Lucky for me, I still had a few of my best friends left with me to make these past couple of years easier.
As my roommate and hometown best friend was receiving her ring the other day, it dawned on me that I had to do something I have never done before. I needed to stop and appreciate everything my hometown has done for me. It brought me friends for life and as we all realize that we are permanently connected through the Aggie Network, we acknowledge the fact that we are connected from our hometown roots as well.
Now as a senior in college, I can say that it is time to come home. When I graduated high school I thought I was ready to leave my little home called Katy, Texas. Now, as a more wise soon to be college graduate I can say that I finally appreciate home. So from Katy to College Station, and back home again I go.
Talking to our kids is usually an enjoyable experience, but there are some topics that make many parents uneasy. Should you be the one to bring up these topics or wait for your child to approach the subject? Here are some of the most common tough talks as well as tips from the experts to help guide you.
Death can be as difficult to explain as it is to understand. Whether you have to discuss with your child why their grandmother is in the hospital or the loss of the long-time family pet, it is important to be honest and encourage questions. Let them know you do not have all the answers, but create an environment of comfort and openness. Send the message that there is no right or wrong way to feel. “I believe grieving is an intentional process,” says Dotson. “We hear the saying, ‘time heals all wounds,’ but not addressing a painful situation with your child can actually create a wound. We need to walk along side our kids through grief by showing affection, asking them how they are doing, praying with them, or even helping them take action.” Dotson points out that culture often discourages kids from attending funerals. “A funeral is a powerful ceremony that can be a tool in the grief process. It helps us see we are not alone in our grief and gives us an opportunity for a solemn and respectful farewell,” he adds. When dealing with the loss of a pet, if you have to use euthanasia, be cautious about saying the animal went “to sleep” or “got put to sleep.” Young children sometimes interpret events literally, so this can conjure up scary misconceptions about sleep, surgery, and anesthesia. If the pet’s death is more sudden, calmly explain what happened, be brief, and let their questions guide how much information you provide.
Discussing drugs and alcohol with your child may not seem like the highest priority when they are young, but how your child approaches alcohol and drugs can have life-long effects and serious consequences. Studies have shown that children ages 12 and 13 are most commonly exposed to this type of peer pressure, however some evidence now shows that they are being approached much younger. According to the Centers for Disease Control, 19% of high school students admitted to drinking more than a few sips of alcohol before the age of 13. When asked if they’d had at least one drink of alcohol in their lifetime, that number jumps to 66%. Hands-on parenting is often seen as the most effective approach. Frequently discuss your family’s values and then make sure you are serving as their role model. Children mimic their parents’ behavior at an early age, and look to them in order to determine what responsible behavior is. “If your son or daughter is feeling peer pressure about drugs or alcohol, tell them that you are going to start randomly drug and alcohol testing them,” suggests Jaggers. “It’s a great deterrent and for the kids who truly aren’t interested but are being pressured. It usually only takes one ‘I can’t. My parents drug test me,’ to have them never asked again.
As soon as you are certain about your plans, start discussions with your children about your decision to live apart. Keeping the news hidden will only build unnecessary tension. If possible, have both parents present for this conversation. It’s important to try to leave feelings of anger, guilt, or blame out of it and not share your adult issues with the children. Practice how you’re going to tell your kids so you don’t become upset or angry during the talk. “A primary goal should be to establish yourself as someone who is safe to talk to about anything,” advises Dotson. Don’t feel like you have to pour out every detail about difficult subjects all at once, but create an on-going atmosphere of safe conversation.” Although the discussion should be tailored to your children’s age, maturity, and temperament, be sure to convey that what happened between mom and dad, is not their fault, and that both parents still love them. Most kids will feel they are to blame even after parents have said that they are not, so it’s vital for parents to keep providing reassurance.

Selecting a preschool is not an easy task, especially with the overwhelming amount of quality preschools to choose from in the Katy area. Each one has its own unique qualities, and parents diligently seek a preschool that matches their family’s educational beliefs and values. Communication and research are key components when selecting a preschool that will accommodate your needs. Here are the basic ABC’s and 123’s of selecting the best fit for you and your child.
she had two main questions entering into her evaluation process. “‘What is your sick child policy?’ and ‘What is your hand-washing policy, and is it enforced?’” Evaluate what is most important and valuable to your family, whether it’s health-related, education-oriented, or a matter of proximity.
children currently enrolled in programs. Find out what they’ve appreciated most about their school’s curriculum, teachers, and overall environment.
Do your research. Preschool accreditation can be easily verified through the National Association for the Education of Young Children, and most schools also allow you to view sample curriculum. Do you want a more hands-on approach to learning, or would you prefer a structured academic schedule? “Our motto sums it up: Learning for fun. Learning for life. I would like all parents to know that at The Goddard School, learning is fun,” says Asli Remlinger, owner of The Goddard School in Katy.
“Spanish Learning Castle is a school setting where their child is safe, and he or she, feels at home. Parents are confident knowing that their child is being attended to every minute of the day while learning and having fun. Recently, a parent told us that this is the reason she enrolled her child at our school,” says Ramon Marin of Spanish Learning Castle.
Find a preschool you feel is in line with your child’s needs and fits your family’s philosophies. Remember to ask how the preschool stays in close communication with parents and updates them on their child’s progress. “An emphasis is placed on parent communication to foster the connection between school and home, creating continuity in the child’s educational experience,” says Fitch.
Spend at least one hour in the classroom of your top three choices. This will not only allow you to see teachers and students interact, but determine if their education philosophy supports your family’s values. “We have a loving, family atmosphere that exists between the staff, kids, and extended families,” says Steve Sandweiss, owner of Tiger Land Child Care Center.
Many schools also send home newsletters to update parents on classroom activities. Find out if these will tell you menu plans for the week, what projects are being completed, and other school-wide news.

There are times when you can’t believe you just did that. Katy parents reveal some of their most embarrassing parenting secrets.
“When my twins were infants, I was in a constant state of exhaustion. One day they had their 2-month-old check-up. As usual, I got them ready in the carriers and put them by the garage door so I could grab my purse and get everything loaded in the car. Without even thinking, I jumped in the car and headed out. When I got to the end of the street, I realized I had forgotten something very important – the babies! I drove home as fast as I could and swung open the door. My little ones were fast asleep in the carriers with no idea that mommy had forgotten them.” – M.C.
“My mom used to have us get dressed in our school clothes the night before, after bath time, so she wouldn’t have to fight with us in the morning about what to wear.”- N.M.
“One time, I was looking for Charlotte’s bottle of breast milk I had just pumped. I knew I had pumped, but it wasn’t in the fridge. Hours later, I found it in the kitchen cabinet with the glasses – because that’s where breast milk belongs. I was clearly sleep-deprived. But I laughed for days.” -K.M.
“Being a working parent is hard with medication and fever policies. So I have to confess, on occasion when my daughter has woken up with a slightly elevated temp, and I know what’s causing it (usually ear infection – not contagious), I slip a couple of chewable Ibuprofen in her gummy bears at lunch to keep her from being sent home. She takes them at home, I give her specific instructions not to share, and it saves me from the call and more importantly the 24-hour stay-home policy.” – D.R.
“When my oldest, 4, declares she needs to potty after I have already buckled all the car seats and it is an ‘emergency,’ I will grab a diaper from the baby’s bag and put it on her so I don’t have to unload and drag everyone to the public bathroom.” – N.M.
KATY, Texas (KM) – Choosing a pediatrician that you and your child connect with is an important first step in raising a healthy, happy child. Whether you’re expecting your first baby or it’s time for a a change, here are a few words of wisdom from Katy moms and pediatricians.
Many parents interview potential pediatricians to ensure a good fit. “I don’t think there are a lot of ‘don’ts’ when interviewing a pediatrician,” explains Dr. Farah Mamedov from Katy’s Steeplechase Pediatrics. “You are choosing a medical home for your child, so you have to be comfortable with the doctor and the clinic.” Dr. Mamedov emphasizes making sure you ‘like’ your new doctor, and asking questions to see if you agree on important parenting topics like breastfeeding, discipline, antibiotics, and more.
If you are expecting, schedule appointments to interview your top choices before the baby is born. Bring in a set of questions to ask the pediatrician, and try to pare them down to what is most important to you. Brotherton recommends asking anything that pertains to your family specifically.” How do you feel about breast feeding? How do you feel about alternate vaccination schedules? These were some issues that were important to us,” she says.
Ultimately, what parents are truly searching for is chemistry, not credentials. Interviewing potential pediatricians is an effective way to discover that compatibility. Asking questions and making simple observations during the interview can help parents figure out if the pediatrician is someone they feel comfortable with, someone who answers their questions, and someone they trust.
LEIGH ANN MITCHELL also went through the interviewing process to find a pediatrician to make sure he was a good fit for them and their child.
I’m writing this before the crack of dawn today. Why? Our household has been invaded by the virus of the month. You may have run across it – it’s the one that causes super-high temperatures, mostly in the middle of the night. It lasts a good three days for your children to feel better, which means parents are not sleeping. Now multiply that by the number of kiddos in your house, and you’ve got one tough virus and little rest. Our particular case has lasted about two weeks so far. Our oldest boy just got it a few days ago.
Anyway, this post is not about the virus. It is about lasagna, but first some details. In the early days of our sickness, it was just the triplets who fell ill. We had gone to the doctor, bought our juice and extra bottles of acetaminophen and ibuprofen.
My husband and I worked as an overnight team. I would hear the baby cry and go get him, amazed at the heat. He would feed and then comfort the baby as I sponged him off with a cool rag and gave him his medicine. I would put him back to bed until we did that all over again with the other two. It was definitely not a one-man job.
As we dealt with lack of sleep, I guess it became obvious to others how tired we actually were. One of our good friends wrote that she would like to bring us dinner. “It’s the least I can do,” she said. I jumped at the chance for some help. As you know, when contagious illness arrives, offers of help usually dwindle. No one wants to babysit your children while you sleep when the stomach flu or pink eye comes your way!
So it was such a wonderful surprise when she picked up the lasagna and drove it all the way to our house. No visit, no time for thanks that evening. She merely dropped it off on our porch, rang the bell, and headed back onto I-10 traffic to her own busy home.
It was the best meal we had had in a week. The lasagna was good, but the feeling that someone cared and that someone had gone beyond the easy “Let me know what I can do to help” statement made it delicious! She put it into action.
I can’t be the only one touched by a friend’s thoughtfulness. Let us know the good deeds of Katy – please share!
It happened again this morning. The triplets were in their highchairs, our four-year-old was happily fed and playing with some car toys, and my husband and I were planning for a pleasant breakfast. Then everything changed in what seemed an instant.
“I have to go potty,” said one. I looked at the babies and they had somehow managed to eat every Puff off their tray and were demanding more food – NOW! The kettle began to whistle, and I forgot what I was getting out of the pantry. Craziness in the Browne household strikes again!
I know I’m not alone. Every parent from the beginning of time can tell stories of how a seemingly easy-going moment suddenly turns into a scene from a horror movie. A child may come running in covered in blood, the dog or cat runs out the front door, a roof leak pops up out of nowhere, or the toilet/sink/dishwasher (you pick) is not working properly.
I constantly remind myself that how I respond to these moments is what my children will remember and hopefully grow from. If they see me lose it, what will they take away but that it’s okay to yell or throw in the towel or to stomp away angrily. I don’t want them to have that as a common experience, and that helps me stay calm.
I am far from perfect, and my husband and even my four year-old can tell you that! When I do tend to slide toward the chaos, I do my best to pull myself out and just go to work. The boy needs to go potty, okay. The babies need some finger food until I am ready to feed them, okay. Breakfast needs to be made, okay. In the mornings, I am blessed to have my husband with me – feeding babies, getting kids dressed, washing dishes, and folding clothes before he heads to work.
When I’m alone, I sometimes have to work through the babies’ cries, knowing that I can only change one diaper at a time. I think multiples quickly learn how to wait their turn.
And then there is the other daily need–to take time for oneself. My husband gets to unwind during his commute home down the Katy Freeway. I know, not exactly a drive in the country, but he listens to a CD, works out problems, and is alone! I have to take that alone time when I can get it: naptime, when the babies are quietly playing with toys together, or before everyone wakes up. It’s wonderful, it’s needed. And I challenge both moms and dads to find some quiet time to help balance the chaotic periods of the day.
That’s how I do it – on good days. I’d love to hear from you. How do you manage the stress of daily life with the needs you have personally?
I am constantly amazed by my girls. Yesterday, I went in to wake up my four-year old from her nap and just sat and stared at her. On a daily basis, I appreciate the obvious things about her: her sense of humor, her creative mind, the way she spins in circles when she feels beautiful. But yesterday, sitting on her bed watching her breathe in and out, I was struck by the little things. How her hands have grown. How this amazing creation coexists with me every day of my life. How I can know the exact outline of her face and still be surprised when I really look closely at how perfectly she was formed.
In this place of parenting a toddler and a pre-schooler, I am always aware of how fast this time goes by and how common my feelings are to mothers in the same stage of life as me. I want to embrace these moments, and catching my daughter napping really helps me with my perspective.

I love The Little Gym because my 18 month old daughter Kate’s face lights up when we walk through the doors. There are so many reasons that I love this place… and so many reasons that it has become my favorite hour of the week. It’s because it is a special hour designed for us to spend together, just the two of us. With a big sister at home, Kate spends most of her time following us around to “big kid†activities. Even when I am careful to focus on Kate, she doesn’t have the space to come alive while under the shadow of a very loving – and helpful – sister. At The Little Gym, Kate works on independence and self-esteem but it is also time for us to spend bonding. When we have a chance to interact, I am able to capture those moments between she and I and cling to them (and to her) with so much gratitude. During the times Kate is participating in more independent activities, I am able to step back and marvel at the things she knows and how she interacts with other children her age. These are things I long to know about my second-born but don’t always have the ability to observe while facilitating life for both of my children. The  activities are so uniquely crafted to Kate’s age and the focus is so much about the experience and the process, rather than the actual skills and where she is on the developmental scale. For Kate, her love for The Little Gym is much more obvious: she loves the bells. She loves the bubbles. She loves the balls. She loves the parachute. She loves the exploring time, the forward rolls and straddle rolls, the high bars the obstacle courses. She loves her teacher and she loves the routines and being able to anticipate what comes next.
 I knew that we would love The Little Gym but it just wasn’t in the budget. So, for Kate’s 1 year (and now her 2 year) birthday, we asked family members for money to pay for this activity rather than for toys. Since she has a big sister who enjoys most of the same things she does, she is not lacking for toys. Plus, as much as she enjoys The Little Gym, I think she’d happily trade a new doll for a class at The Little Gym any day!
What about you? Do you have a favorite activity of your week? Post a comment below!
My four year old daughter and I decided to make May special and to count down the days until school is out. I wanted to keep it healthy, low-cost, and low-stress, since the end of the year has enough stress of its own.
We decided to do a healthy(ish) dessert each week that somehow makes us think of summertime. Last week, we made beach scenes. We used graham cracker crumbs, low-fat vanilla pudding, and marshmallows to create the beach.
Next, we stirred blue food coloring in to the vanilla pudding to create the water. We used a box mix of French Vanilla pudding and stirred the blue food coloring into the milk before whisking it together. Apparently French Vanilla pudding is mostly yellow, because our ocean turned out more green than not. Next time, we’ll see if we can find a better canvas to prepare our ocean with, but it worked fine to make an over-all impression of ocean water. We poured the pudding in to the clear cups and let it set in the refrigerator.
After the pudding set in the cups, we added marshmallows to the top. These were meant to look like the crest of the wave, but they also added a fun texture to the dessert.
It was a fun, quick way for us to build excitement over the possibilities that summer holds. And, as an added bonus for health-minded Momma, it was a relatively healthy dessert that we could all enjoy!
Today I took my girls to Katy Mills Mall. Sometimes we head there to shop, and I love those trips. But today, we just went to be together.
Before we left, we gathered all of our change from around the house and stuck it in one of my daughter’s dress-up purses. I was curious if it would be enough to keep us busy for the next hour, and I was pleasantly surprised.
We arrived, with no agenda except to walk the mall and spend our coins. First, we stopped at one of those coin collectors with the funnel. My girls had so much fun watching the coins pin around and around. I was careful to pick out the pennies for this activity. Total cost for this stop: approximately 50 cents.
Next, we wandered the mall, looking for one of the gumball dispensers. We found a huge clump of them and my girls circled the glass domes over and over trying to choose which flavor they wanted. Total cost for this stop: 50 cents.
From there, the girls got very excited when they saw the sign for Bass Pro Shop. For us, it means one major thing: fish! We stopped in and stared at the fish for a while, my youngest pointing out each new fish that swam by. Total cost for this stop: nothing!
We were starting to run low on time, so we had to skip so many of our favorites: the play area by the movie theaters, the photo booths, pointing out animals at Rainforest Café, and the carousel. We only had time for one more stop, so my girls chose the mini-carousel just past Bass Pro Shop. It was so much fun that we rode it twice. Total cost for this stop: $2.00.
On the way out, we stopped at one of the drink machines just outside the entrance and I treated us to a  Lemonade and a Coke. Total cost for this stop: $3.25.
For an hour’s worth of pure, relaxed, undirected fun, we paid only $6.25. And since it was all from change laying around our house, it was free for our bank account… even better!
This outing was so much fun that we plan to make it a weekly trip. What about you? Do you and your family have a favorite place to go for inexpensive fun? Post a comment below!
With our daughter arriving this July and summer now at our doorsteps I decided to really make the most of spring-cleaning this year. The last month my husband and I have been cleaning house and organizing all of our stuff. Yes, of course I wanted to jump into the cute baby decorations but I quickly saw that first you have to get organized before you can any fun with the cute stuff.
Honestly though, once we got started it wasn’t that horrible. I even tackled my overflowing file cabinet. As someone with an at home business I keep files on everything from our bills to my projects. Now that my file cabinet is organized and has some order to it I’m finding that I can now save time on many daily tasks. Paying bills, sorting mail and other undesirable tasks are handled much quicker and easier now. I also am able to be more productive with my writing career. Before it would take me a while to find notes or research on a topic. Now I can put my hands right on what I need and when I need it.
My husband and I were also amazed at how much space we actually do have. After removing several piles of clothes to goodwill our closets actually began to have some purpose to the way things were hanging in them! I also now know where I plan to put various things for our daughter. I know longer have to stress about where to fold and put away her little towels and bath hoodies. The linen closet now has plenty of room.
Now that May is here embrace your spring cleaning before the activities of Summer pull you away. Trust me, you will be glad that you did clean and you will save time in the long run if you can organize your life through your belongings. Do you have any spring-cleaning success stories or nightmares? Please share in comments below!
Although my triplet boys were born last week and I am out of the hospital, they must remain in the NICU for an unknown period of time.
This is obviously difficult and emotional, but I wanted to blog about how this is a immediately humbling event in our family’s life. It has taught my husband and me that we are not an island unto ourselves. We cannot do everything. We must rely on the kindness of friends.
I won’t be able to drive for at least the next week. Who will take my toddler to school? How will I get downtown to be with the Trips? Will my husband have to take time off of work?
Good friends have swiftly stepped up to help us. Acqaintances have come out of the woodwork and surprised us with dinners and offers of transportation. It is truly amazing. Our son will get to school without any problems. This helps him to stay on a schedule in the midst of chaos for us. That’s so valuable for the family.
It is still an uphill road for the Trips and for us; however, a simple act of compassion makes life so much easier. I have to remember sometimes to ask for help–that is often all it takes for people to fill a need.
I would love to hear your stories of inspiration. How has your life been touched by others’ goodness. Please comment.
I use to be one of those people that despised having extra cards in my wallet. However, expecting a baby quickly changes you! Now that I’m 6 months pregnant I’m quickly becoming a collector of coupons and reward cards as a way to save money.
At the local Katy Babies R Us my rewards card helps me earn points towards savings and alerts me via email on great coupon specials. Thanks to paying attention to such coupons my husband and I were able to save 20% on our crib. This was a significant savings and with a baby on the way every little bit helps.
Also, with my Babies R Us rewards card I can save money when buying diapers and formula. I’ve recently discovered how expensive those much needed and everyday items can be so learning ways to save money in this area is a huge comfort.
I’m also finding other ways to save money in our everyday lives. Even if it isn’t directly related to our baby savings is savings. I have a membership card with Barnes and Noble. As an avid reader this is a simple way for me to find some savings. We also now have a Randalls card, Best Buy, and Petsmart rewards card. And I have found that my original hesitation to such reward cards is unwarranted. I don’t like to weigh down my wallet but all of our reward cards are linked to our phone number so I can give that to the teller and I don’t have to have the card.
When I first thought about covering this trending topic I posted the question, “Do you like to use reward cards?†on Facebook. I quickly got responses from many friends on their opinions. I did find it interesting on how my single friends without families of their own were against reward cards for the very reason that I once was, the hassle and extra bulk to my wallet. Then my friends that are married with children or a baby on the way were all for the reward cards. Maybe this is just another life change that comes with a growing family.
Whatever your belief is on reward cards it is a easy and wonderful way to save money on not just baby products but also normal items that your family typically purchases. Also, it does open you up to great coupon opportunities that I’ve found are easy to follow to great saving opportunities. Have you come across a great baby saving find such as a coupon source or a store program? If so please share your experience below in a comment.
*Walking around the large lakes at Cinco Ranch Blvd and Spring Green. This is a family favorite, and we will sometimes pack a lunch and eat out on the grass.
*Playing outside at La Centera. And what trip to La Centera is complete without a treat from one of the several shops around? The girls love to get ice cream or cookies, I love the Starbucks and Jamba Juice.
*Geocaching in and around Katy (for more, go to www.geocaching.com). Geocaching is like a global scavenger hunt, with locations given in GPS. We use my iPhone and my 4 year old has a blast helping us discover the hidden capsules.
*Local Katy parks are a real hit. Mary Jo Peckham, the ‘train park’ nearby it, George Bush park – we love making the park rounds!
*Refilling our sand and water table. And for an extra twist, we make one side warm, soapy water and the other cold, clean water.
*Sidewalk chalking and sidewalk painting. To make the sidewalk paint, we mix 2 tablespoons of water with 2 tablespoons of corn starch and then add food coloring. It’s so much fun and washes right off (except for our blue food coloring… oops).
*Biking together. The girls enjoy the ride and my husband and I love getting exercise and family time all at once. We’ve gotten really brave and biked to a casual dinner or to the store before, but even a trip around our neighborhood is nice.
What about you? Â How do you take advantage of the warm weather? Post a comment!
I got a phone call from a friend of mine the other day. “Angela! You will never believe how much fun we just had!â€Â She and her 4 year old son were running an errand at Katy Mills Mall when they discovered a sidewalk full of caterpillars. She happened to have a container in the car, so the two of them spent the next 30 minutes collecting caterpillars to take home and nurture together. It was a moment of unplanned fun, and it reminded both my friend and I that so much of our time has become scheduled.
I stay home with my two girls, but we have activities planned most days. With pre-school, The Little Gym, ballet and playgroup, we are very rarely home and almost always have a schedule and a plan wherever we go.
If I am honest, I’ll admit my girls are probably tired from all of our activities. Sure, I want them to be enriched. And yes, if we stay home for too long without a plan, we all start to go crazy. But I also think we can find a better balance than we have now.
I am excited to see how this goes. If it isn’t raining, I may take the girls to a park or for a nature walk. If it is raining, maybe we’ll go waste some time and coins at Katy Mills Mall. Or maybe we’ll stay home and bake or have a tea party.
What about you? Do you care to join me on this little experimental ‘day of rest’? Post a comment below!
Avery is defiant and has been known to clear a playground, classroom, or grocery store with her ear piercing screams. She doesn’t just reserve those screams for special occasions, either: she’ll unleash a scream when she’s not ready to go home yet, or when she’s asked to eat her dinner, or any number of other times.  I am strong willed, as is my husband, so we just assumed that all of our children will be this way. Avery is a lot of work and doesn’t respond to discipline or encouragement like other children do. Wrestling her into her car seat after she’s been patiently asked to obey repeatedly is somewhat common for us.
When our second daughter, Kate, was born, we quickly realized that two strong-willed parents sometimes produce an easy-going, even-tempered baby. Kate is 18 months old right now, and by this time in Avery’s life, I’d cried, read every book I could find, and still found primarily failures in correcting her. Kate, on the other hand, has only been disciplined a handful of times. Each time, her little heart breaks in front of us and she immediately responds with a hug and obedience. It is such a nice change.
Kate is actually getting away with a good deal when I step back and look at this objectively: she climbs on the furniture and then jumps down right when she catches my eye (whereas Avery would’ve yelled at me that she’d do what she wanted and would’ve kept jumping). Kate throws her food to the dogs when I’m not looking and then giggles about it when I catch her. She is still doing exactly what she wants, but because I’m so used to the confrontational aspect of discipline, Kate is getting away with a good bit of misbehavior.
I’m becoming more and more aware of how much I have to learn about my second born.  What about you? Are your children different, and how does it affect your parenting? Post a comment below!
April 14, 2010 – Katy, Texas – This week, while waiting in the airport to board my plane, I noticed a mother approach the ticket counter with a young toddler and an infant in her arms. She struggled to carry her belongings, and her two children through the throngs of people gathered to board. Floods of memories came to my mind as I remembered myself in the very same situation. I remembered the looks and smiles of those around me. I remembered I yearned for an additional arm. As I watched the mother carefully move to the boarding ramp, I remembered the numerous kind women who offered assistance when I needed it most.
On this trip, I was traveling by myself, but, I could recall many other trips with my babies and toddlers that had been quite stressful. On one particular occasion, a sweet middle-aged woman shared a row with me. As I juggled cheerios, bottles, and Sippy cups, she was an angel. She helped me the entire flight and turned a very difficult time into a manageable, happy time. When I had asked her if I could do something to repay her kindness, she simply smiled, winked and said, “It is the Mother Code. You will give back to other mothers.  You’ll see!â€Â And, that was that.
A look of relief spread across her face and she said, “Oh, that is so nice of you, could you? I have been very worried about this flight.
Have you known any angel mothers? Post a comment below.
My mother and I both went back to school and got our Masters in Library Science. That means, among other things, that my children have a double dose of avid readers gifting them with books upon books. And they love it!
*The Aminal by Lorna Balian – This is a fun little story about a boy who finds an aminal. The children spend the rest of the book picturing what this aminal might look like, and in the end, all are surprised by the friendly creature.
*Fancy Nancy Explorer Extrodinaire by Jane O’Conner and Robin Preiss Glaser – Fancy Nancy is a favorite with my prissy little girl, and in Explorer Extrodinaire, Fancy Nancy shows her reader that it is fancy to learn about nature and be an explorer. I love reading this book and then heading out to do some exploring of our own!
*The Golden Egg Book by Margaret Wise Brown – The pictures are beautiful, and I love to stop half way through the book and have my girls draw pictures of what they think goes inside of an egg like the one in the book. Literature and science, nicely meshed.
*Quick as a Cricket by Audrey Wood – This book has similies comparing a child to many different animals. Beautiful pictures and great comparisons make this a librarian’s favorite; acting out the different similies make this a child’s favorite.
*Cat by Martin Van Fleet – This is a great hands on book, fun for any time of year. However, I do love reading books about animals in the spring time, and my daughter has recently renewed her love for this book as well. We love the squeaking ball!
How about you? What are your favorite picture books to read during the spring time? Post a comment below!
We all know how important reading is for children. Children who are readers score higher on standardized tests, show a love for literacy, and are usually clearer writers and spellers. There are even studies that show that reading to a child still in the womb is a calming and beneficial practice. Parents of toddlers and pre-readers know the joy children exhibit as they wander through a bookstore or library and choose a book of their very own. My son loves to climb into any family member’s lap and simply say, “Read to me.” Books are one of his favorite hobbies, and I think it’s mainly because both his parents enjoy reading and reading to him.
So, how do you get your child to enjoy reading? Here are some simple ways parents can involve their families in literacy.
1.) Read together on a daily basis. Turn off the TV and find comfortable spots–the couch, comfy pillows on the floor, or outside in a shady spot are good places to start.
3.) Young children enjoy it when you change your voice to suit different characters. Can you roar like a lion or squawk like a parrot? What does your child think a particular race car would talk like?
4.) Older siblings should be encouraged to read to younger ones. Trust me, this is as enjoyable to watch as a parent as it is for the younger child. Yes, parents can read to toddlers and elementary students, but nothing compares to a big brother or sister giggling and just making reading purely entertaining.
5.) Read and talk to your older children about their literature choices. If you can manage to discuss a book that your child is reading just for fun during the summer, imagine how helpful that will be once school starts up again and they are reading for class. Getting them to delve into plot, characterization, and comprehension skills now will make it easier for them when they don’t have a choice in what novel or play they are assigned.
Don’t despair. Keep reading–you, your spouse, your children–can all find books, magazines, and even comic books that will entertain and educate! What are some of your family’s reading habits. I’d love to hear from you.
One on one time in a busy Katy household is hard to come by, but it is possible!
My children, ages 18 months and 3 ½ years, are very busy. They (luckily) love playing together and most often keep each other pretty well entertained. We’ve reached a point where I can even spend 5 minutes tending to a household chore while the children play nearby. We’re in the eye of the storm: my baby has not yet hit her terrible twos, and my oldest daughter understands how to share to some extent. It is wonderful.
I heard it said once that it takes a lot of effort to pursue your child’s heart. Case in point: at age 3 ½, my daughter’s first response when I ask her what she did that day at school? “Played.â€Â It can seem like pulling teeth to get more information out of her, and even at a young age when she still craves my time, I am well aware of how easy it would be to let time (and my children) slip away.
I’ve skated the line between getting the house clean and comfortable to live in and paying attention to my children constantly for the last 3 ½ years. What I have finally come to as my reasonable solution is spending 30 minutes of one on one, attention focused time on each child during the day.
I know there are many ways to balance housework and children. I’m so thankful I’ve found one small way to tip the scales more towards balanced.
Do you have any advice about balancing housework and children? Post a comment below!
The Year of the Indian Paintbrush?
Avery, 2 1/2 years, and Katie Beth, 6 months, at their blue bonnet photo shoot last year.
We took a road trip to Austin last weekend. It was a quick trip with very little time to stop and smell the roses (or to stop and take photos with the bluebonnets). But while we were driving, I made it my personal mission to scout bluebonnet spots along I10.
I love taking annual pictures in the bluebonnets with my children. But a 2 hour trip seems a bit excessive just to snap a few shots.
Two years ago, we loaded my then 19 month old daughter into the car and drove up and down roads for about an hour before giving up and heading back for home. That year, we captured no bluebonnet shots. Just an adorable little girl in the grass.
Last year we had much better luck. Twice we stumbled upon amazing bluebonnets – as far as the eye could see. We snapped some of my favorite photos of my girls (now two of them!) and enjoyed a picnic dinner in the spring sun.
This year, I haven’t yet tried our other two lucky spots from last year: 290 on the way to Brenham and a few hot spots in Fulshear, just off of 1093. Our plan is to load the girls up on Saturday and try out these two locations. It’d be wonderful to find some bluebonnets close to home. I have a feeling that if it comes down to a two hour trip out to Austin for pictures or skipping the shots, we’ll end up skipping the shots. My girls’ patience only lasts so long.
I’m also curious if the excess of Indian Paintbrushes and lack of bluebonnets has something to do with the long winter. It will be interesting to see if the Indian Paintbrushes are more numerous than the bluebonnets in our favorite spots as well. I’ll have to make sure to dress the girls in something that will look good with blue or red flowers.
Does anyone have a sure fire spot that they’ve visited this year? How were the bluebonnets? Were there many Indian Paintbrushes?
I believe in the power of family meals every night.  I do not particularly care for processed foods, nor do I always have the time to make something fresh and fabulous each night.
Most often, the meals need to be defrosted and baked, neither of which takes much effort. And a major plus to this way of cooking is that I don’t have to come up with a creative menu item four times each month. My girlfriends have already done that for me!
*Try to recruit people with roughly the same family size as you. It would be unbalanced for a family of 2 to be cooking for a family of 6.
*I’ve found that 3 people in the group is ideal. It can be done with fewer, but tripling a recipe takes a lot of work and cooking more than that may make the hard work in the kitchen too much to handle.
*If you’re unable to find a group to meal swap with, consider doing this on your own. Double or triple your family’s favorite recipes and freeze them for your own use throughout the month.
*Some recipes freeze better than others. Avoid using recipes with heavy cream or other ingredients that may curdle when reheated.
*It’s best not to triple a new recipe until you know how it will end up. I always do a trial run of a new recipe on my family the month before I triple it to make sure it turns out.
*Experience is your best ally. It took me a while to figure out which recipes were cost-effective, easily frozen and reheated, and worth the effort of tripling them. Play with your favorite recipes and soon you’ll have a set of delicious, healthy meals at your disposal.
March 24, 2010 – Katy, Texas – I love spring. I love the comfortable weather and the flowers. But I especially love Easter.
I have such fond memories of Easters past. My family partook in so many of the Easter traditions: egg hunts, church on Sunday morning, confetti eggs, dying hard boiled eggs… the list goes on and on. Now that I have two children of my own, I feel giddy about the opportunity to pass these traditions down to them. And pass them down I will.
Avery enjoying the bounce house at last year's Easter Fest.
But my new favorite tradition started last year. The Waters Church at 2710 N. Mason Road (Suite #145) hosts an annual Easter Fest in the parking lot of the church. Our family went last year, and we were amazed at how much there was for our children to enjoy.
My family is always game for a free night of entertainment, and this year will be no exception.
We’ll be in the parking lot of The Waters Church from 6:30 until 8:30 this upcoming Wednesday night. I hope to see you there!
What other free or inexpensive Easter activities in the community do you and your family participate in each year? Post a comment below!
With the current state of the economy, we’ve been looking for ways to pull in extra money and cut our budget. I’ve been working as a photographer on the weekends to help make ends meet, but it has been at the cost of time together as a family. And the house? Oh, boy… please don’t come over without giving me at least 6 hours notice!
Katy ISD offers half-day preschool for certain children. Their eligibility can be based on having English as a second language, an active military parent, or federal income guidelines. We were a little disappointed to find out that we make just $30 per paycheck too much to qualify!
However, as the weeks have gone by, we are reevaluating our decision. After all, $700/month for preschool would mean quite a few photo sessions! If I have them in school during the week and am working every evening and weekend… when will I get to be their mother?
One tearful family meeting later, we’ve made a decision… next year, we’re doing preschool at home! I feel a tremendous burden off of my shoulders. To prepare our children for the wonderful Katy ISD school system, we’re planning a daily schedule of learning activities. One of my majors at NSU was Early Childhood Education, and with two siblings so close in age, this could be lots of fun.
Katy offers a lot to preschool-aged children, and I plan to take advantage of it! The library system in Katy has many storytimes for different age groups to choose from. What a great way to let my children practice sitting and listening to a teacher for short periods of time. Local playgrounds and our church nursery will provide opportunities to interact with other children.
As I gear up for Preschool At Home, I would love to hear your ideas. What are some other things we can do at home? What else does Katy have to offer parents of preschoolers on a budget?
March 22, 2010 –Katy, TX –Being pregnant with my second child was considerably less blissful than my being pregnant the first time around. Sure, I was sick more often the second time around (and those “slight†pains associated with Braxton Hicks were more intense), but the thing that really plagued me, the unavoidable reality that haunted my thoughts at night, was the idea that I’d somehow have to find a way to split my love and loyalties between two children.
Big sister, Avery, holding newborn baby sister, Kate.
I adore my first child, Avery. And while I was pregnant, I knew I would adore my second, Kate, as well. And what new mother hasn’t heard the age old advice, “Once the second child is born you’ll understand how your heart can just swell to love both children equally.� Still, I had my doubts.
Besides my own doubts, I’d heard from friends that welcoming a second child into the world is significantly more challenging than the first. The exhaustion and post-partum hormones are still in place, but added to that is the ongoing needs of your first. I’m not one to take a challenge lying down, so I did some poking around for ideas on easing the transition from one child to two.
When my two year old came up to the hospital to meet the baby, we gave her a gift with a few disposable cameras to use and a Big Sister photo book she could carry around. She delighted in taking pictures of the new baby, and when we first saw relatives and friends, we’d make a big deal out of her photo book before focusing on her baby sister.
I did some searching and found several picture books about becoming a new sister. We inserted my oldest daughter’s name into the book instead of using the main character’s name, and Avery enjoyed being the star of the book. She identified with the characters in the books and would sometimes reenact segments.
Avery had a Tinker Bell movie she really liked to watch, and we bought her a new and different Tinker Bell movie. We talked to Avery about how the old Tinker Bell is special and the new Tinker Bell is special, and how Avery could love them both, just like Mom and Dad love the older sister and the new sister. It was a little over her head as a two year old, but we referred back to it several times and I think it helped in the long run.
We got a stool to keep by the changing table and had her “help” change diapers and feed the baby anytime we used a bottle. Any time Avery helped out, we were very verbal about how wonderful she was. We admittedly overplayed it a bit, but Avery responded well to it and seemed to accept the baby willingly since she still felt clearly that she had an important role in our family.
I set a timer every day for 30 minutes of Avery-focused attention. Even if the baby needed me, I would quickly respond and then get back to Avery. During that time, she could choose to do anything at all, with Mommy’s full attention. Once the baby got old enough, I began to do the same with Kate as well. The children love their one on one time and I like having a measurable way to show each child how important they are to me.
More than anything, I just had to be patient with Avery and let her work through her emotions. And all of the classic advice I received? It was all true. I love Kate with as much passion and wholeheartedness and I love Avery. And the best part of all: a year later, Kate is the best present I’ve ever given to her big sister!
What about you? Did you find any hints especially helpful when welcoming your second child into the world? Did the age of the child have an impact on how you handled the new baby? Post your comment below! | 2019-04-20T23:02:24 | https://www.katymagazine.com/katy-texas/katy-community-blog/parenting-katy-texas/babies-and-tots/ |

You may have TMJ dysfunction disorder and not even realize it. How is that possible? Often, the symptoms of TMJ disorder affect more than your mouth.
TMJ disorder is often a result of malocclusion (a poorly aligned bite).
When your top jaw is aligned with your bottom jaw, your bite is in its optimal position and the muscles will be calm and relaxed.
When the alignment is off, painful symptoms can result.
If you are diagnosed with malocclusion, we will recommend a treatment plan that will correct your bite and alleviate pain and discomfort.
Occlusal Adjustment – Dental restorations, including crowns and veneers, can be placed on your teeth to raise or lower areas of your bite, creating a natural position for your jaw.
Splint Therapy – Splint therapy can put your bite back into proper alignment.
When the splint is worn over the upper teeth, it gently repositions the muscles, joint and teeth so they work together without strain or pain.
Night Guard – A Night Guard is a custom-fit appliance that is worn during sleep. It prevents teeth grinding during the night, so you awake refreshed and renewed. And so does your jaw. | 2019-04-25T06:48:31 | https://www.dentistmidtownatlanta.com/general-dentistry/tmj-treatment/ |
The Niagara Glen is a unique spot of beauty deep in the Great Gorge that has been a designated Nature Reserve since 1992. Stairways lead to 4 km (2.5 mi) of paths that wind through a pristine pocket of Carolinian Forest, past boulders left behind as the Falls eroded through the area thousands of years ago.
Visitors should be aware that hikes through the Niagara Glen involve an elevation change of over 60 m (200 ft). Proper footwear suitable for steep and rugged terrain is required. The trails are well laid out and easily negotiated if you take your time! There’s lots of interesting geology and biology to explore.
Important Note – the Niagara Glen is a Nature Reserve that contains wild flora and fauna (plants and animals). Please observe all posted regulations, stay on trails that are marked and follow generally accepted trail etiquette. Fires are not permitted. Take only photos, leave only footprints!
The Niagara Glen overlooks the Niagara River Whirlpool, a unique natural phenomenon that you must see to believe! Thousands of years ago, as the Niagara River slowly eroded its way through the Niagara Escarpment, creating the Great Gorge, a right-angle turn in the river’s path forced the rushing water into a deep counter-clockwise spin. | 2019-04-24T16:52:10 | http://www.niagaradocs.ca/life-in-niagara/the-niagara-glen/ |
Talk about a killer college essay.
Trevor Greene, the principal of the Yakima, Wash., school, applauded Gaby for sacrificing her senior year to find out what it would be like to be an expectant teen mom.
"I admire her courage. I admire her preparation," he said. "I give her mother a lot of credit for backing her up on this."
That was before he added that he would never let his own teenage daughter do it.
Most moms go out of their way to support their kids' school projects. (Hey, I have pictures of Maya temples made from sugar cubes and perfectly scaled dioramas of rain forests, complete with misters, from my kid's fourth grade class to prove it.) And we'd like to think that we'd stand by our teen daughters no matter what happens. But would you be willing to support the web of lies – not to mention the heartache and the hurtful exposure – involved in such an ambitious plan? And if you were on the other end of that experiment – as a parent thinking you're about to become a grandparent – could you forgive the other mom for duping you?
Is this a cool class project? Or just a cruel lie? | 2019-04-21T13:07:31 | https://www.miamiherald.com/latest-news/article1950019.html |

This is the first blog in our Things You Should Know About Appium blog series, and we’ll naturally start with the basic things, getting the environment set up, Appium pieces installed and running on your machine. Depending on which programming language you are using, we’ve tried to provide here everything, step-by-step, for those 4 main languages.
To get started, first download our Appium example. The example is available in C#, Python, Java and Ruby, and we’ll be using these as a basis for next examples. Okay, then depending on which programming language you will be using, select the appropriate client library as follows. Or you can download our free Appium beginner’s guide to access your local copy anytime.
Most of the Testdroid examples are located in our Github repositories. To make most out of the existing samples you should have Git installed. If you are new to Git, there is a very good guide on how to install Git on a popular operating system here. Below is the abbreviated version of the installation procedures.
Download the latest git command line tool from http://git-scm.com/download/mac install it using normal Mac installation procedure.
The easiest and most straight forward way is to install the Github Windows application.
Brew is a handy package manager tool, similar to apt-get. If you don’t have it, check the brew website for its one-liner installation.
If Python 2.7 or newer is not installed, download and run the setup from Python’s download center. To add Python into environment variables, go to Windows “System properties” → “Advanced System Settings” → “Environment Variables” → “System Variables” → choose “Path” and press “Edit…” and then insert (assuming you have installed Python in the default location) ;C:Python27;C:Python27Scripts at the end separating each path with semicolon ; . Make sure to re-launch the command prompt to bring new environment variables into effect.
Appium testing supports writing tests in multiple programming languages, including Java. Testing can be done against native or hybrid apps or responsive web pages on both iOS and Android devices. Only the test setups differ.
With Java, things are pretty simple and you only need to configure your test file accordingly. You can use SampleAppium(iOS)Test.java as an example/template.
In case you don’t have an IDE with Maven included and would like to launch the example from the command line, you will need to make sure that Maven is properly installed. Here’s a link to the installation instructions.
Launch the AppiumTest.sln on Visual Studio and make sure that the NUnit Test Adapter is installed through the Extension Manager. Use Test Explorer to run your tests.
If you are new with desired capabilities or if you are looking for more information on how to use those efficiently, take a look at this article.
In this Java example, you only really need to configure testdroid_username and testdroid_password, since sample application upload is included.
Before the test can start you need to upload your application to Bitbar Testing. This can be done either via API or you can do it manually as well.
There’s a myriad of different ways you can set up, build and run your Appium tests. The ones provided here were just one example of how things can be done. Stay tuned – more good stuff about Appium is coming out in few days! | 2019-04-21T21:04:29 | https://bitbar.com/blog/appium-tip-1-how-to-get-started-setup-and-run-your-first-tests/ |

Welcome! Looking for a Castell d’emporda wedding photographer? We’re so pleased you stumbled upon us as Castell d’emporda is one of our favourite wedding venues in Spain and we are very proud to be one of their recommended photographers.
We’re Liam and Bee, otherwise known as The Crawleys. We are an award winning UK and destination wedding photographers – Liam behind the camera and Bee in our digital darkroom. We may be based in the UK but our creative, honest and energetic photography style was made for destination weddings.
No two weddings at Castell d’emporda are the same. The people. The emotions. The characters. The story. No two things are ever the same. It is a really exciting and wonderful wonderful thing to be able to get to know you, your family and friends and be able to tell your story of your day through photographs.
It means a lot to us to be there for you from start to finish. We always try to arrive at least a day or two before your wedding and leave a day after to allow for your optional pre/ post wedding shoot or pre-wedding party/post wedding BBQ/pool party, and to give us plenty of time for any travel delays.
If you would like to see some recent weddings we’ve photographed at Castell d’emporda you can take a look at Franzi + Carlo who married in a local church and then went on to have an epic pool/circus themed party back at the castell. And then there’s Mark + Vanessa (two of the most genuinely wonderful people we’ve met) who said their I Do’s under a marvellous flower arch in the grounds.
Take a look at our Castell D’emporda wedding photography slideshow to see some of the images that we captured last year at this crazy cool venue.
There are some beautiful beaches (LLafranc and Tamiriu are two of our favourites) within a short drive of Castell d’emporda. An hour away from wedding preparations for a short shoot on the beach can be a really good idea. Especially if you’d like one of our famous ‘under the sea’ photographs.
The beautiful Spanish streets in the village of La Bisbal are worth considering for a ‘first look’. A ‘first look’ means that you get to see each other before you officially become husband and wife and we get to create some amazing portraits for you. Often Spanish weddings tend to take place later in the day which can leave only a small amount of time for group shots and your couple photographs. By having a first look it can free up some time during your wedding so that you can spend more time with your family and friends.
We’re very proud of being the first ever UK wedding photography company to introduce drone photography to the genre. Liam is a fully qualified pilot through the CAA and always has his drone with him at every wedding. These unique images have become an iconic part of what we stand for … pushing the boundaries of wedding photography. Castell d’Emporda has so many awesome spots for this type of image including the tower, pool side, and even on the roof!
After photographing an amazing pool party the day after a wedding last year we now think its a must to have one! Castell d’Emporda has two awesome pools to choose from, both with fantastic chill out areas and amazing views over the catalan countryside. So what are you waiting for … build this in to your schedule.
For more information on our availability and pricing please get in touch with us. | 2019-04-25T22:13:07 | https://the-crawleys.com/castell-demporda-wedding-photographer/ |
When I speak to the wind and my words ascend into the atmosphere changing the direction of courses, fear and courage divorces, my boldness burning bright as torches.
When I see the horizon brighten and my strength increases to my light rising.
When the open doors welcome me in, my eye’s opening to hopes with-in, heartbeats rush, muscles tighten like wrists in hand cuffs; this is it! The reward- the result of giving myself wholly to the vision hatched from minds eye sight.
When my desire collides with pregnant wishes and my dreams escape their captures prisons craving the tasting of freedoms dishes. | 2019-04-25T04:47:05 | https://taylorspoetrycorner.com/2012/08/13/we-often-question-the-unknown-when-where-faced-with-a-decision-that-has-the-potential-to-drastically-alter-the-course-of-our-lives-in-that-weighty-moment-of-hesitation-we-find-ourselves-paused-in-th/ |

We all want to stay young forever but Old Father Time gets us all in the end – or does he? In the BBC programme ‘How to Stay Young’, meet a very special group of people brought together by the Centre for Cognitive Ageing and Cognitive Epidemiology (CCACE): the Lothian Birth Cohort.
This ragtag band of 80 somethings shows us that there’s more to ageing than the genes we were born with.
Scotland is home to the longest study of human cognition in the world, the Lothian Birth Cohort (LBC), which is part of CCACE at the University of Edinburgh.
The LBC features data from 33,536 men and 32,229 women born in Scotland in 1936. They took a validated childhood intelligence test at age 11 and could be linked to cause of death data up to December 2015.

Yokogawa Electric Corp. announced that its subsidiary, Yokogawa América do Sul Ltda., has received an order to supply the control system and field instruments for the São Miguel dos Campos second-generation ethanol plant.
This plant will have a production capacity of 82 million liters (21.66 million gallons) per year and is being constructed by GranBio in São Miguel dos Campos, a town in Alagoas state (northeast Brazil). As opposed to first-generation facilities that produce bioethanol from food products such as corn and sugarcane, this plant will rely on second-generation non-food sources such as woodchips and straw. São Miguel dos Campos is the first plant of its type to be constructed in the southern hemisphere, and it will be one of the world’s largest such facilities, in terms of production capacity. It is scheduled to start commercial operation in early 2014.
As the main automation contractor (MAC), Yokogawa América do Sul has been involved in this project from the FEED stage, performing the basic design for a control system and field instrumentation solution that will reduce costs and improve production efficiency throughout the lifecycle of the plant. Yokogawa will supply the CENTUM VP integrated production control system to control plant facilities such as reaction tanks and distillation units, and a variety of field instrumentation and equipment including FOUNDATION fieldbus enabled ADMAG AXF magnetic flowmeters, DPharp EJA series pressure/differential pressure transmitters, and control valves. Yokogawa América do Sul will be responsible for delivery, engineering, and operator training. | 2019-04-18T15:34:12 | http://www.ethanolproducer.com/articles/10382/yokogawa-to-supply-control-system-cellulosic-ethanol-plant |

Working with Laura has been such an empowering experience. When I first booked Laura, I didn't quite know what to expect because I had never worked with a personal stylist (and secretly worried about opening up my varied closet to an 'expert'). During that first consultation, Laura helped me to understand what looked good on me, what outfits worked together and why, and really listened to my needs and preferences.
Since then, Laura has continued to support me with everything from offering tips on what to look for when shopping and pulling multiple outfits together for my increasing number of business travels (with everything fitting neatly into carry-on luggage!). She makes me feel good about myself, and helps naturally pull out my confidence. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Laura!
You’ve inspired me to put my best foot forward every day and have given me the confidence to rock my existing wardrobe. You made me think twice about every off the cuff purchase I think about making and instead think to myself, does this fit in with my current pieces? Is this something that I love? And most importantly, do I feel GREAT in it?
Your list of holes in my wardrobe and accompanying Pinterest board were also super helpful and I ended up making my first purchase, a beautiful Ted Baker super soft leather jacket that I adore. I can’t thank you enough for everything you did for me!!!
It can be hard to hold a mirror up to ourselves, especially when we're feeling uncomfortable with the way we look or discouraged about our bodies. Working with Laura provided me with so much more than a closet edit - it provided me with confidence and tools to re-enter the workforce as a mother of two.
I felt confident about my wardrobe and the options I could put together with the clothes I had. I felt relieved to have gotten rid of a TON of things that I hadn't worn in years and should not try to or want to wear again. I felt encouraged to have some concrete tips and guidelines to follow to help rebuild my closet. And I felt so, so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with Laura, who was nonjudgmental, funny, understanding and honest.
Laura is my go-to for fashion and styling advice. When I have an event, she curates the perfect look. Our annual closet sessions ensure that my wardrobe is complete, contemporary, and flattering. I always have more confidence after working with Laura, and I can't recommend her services enough!
She is my go-to source whether I'm preparing for a gig, a date, a photo shoot, or looking for creative ways to style my growing baby bump! She is consistently able to offer me suggestions, overhauls, or even just little tweaks to take an outfit from a 2 to a 10. She always leaves me feeling confident an beautiful as I go into any situation. | 2019-04-23T20:25:21 | https://lhstylecoach.com/testimonials |

Every so often an aviation commercial comes along that mirrors an historical movie clip, such is the following by British Airways “To Fly - To Serve”, which is a commercial gem, executed as if it were a major motion picture.
This is not an endorsement for British Airways, rather the desire to share a masterful and superbly crafted film, which embodies British Airways history with the history of aviation. These elements were brought together through people, the aircraft, and CGI.
I know you will agree with me, that this is indeed a visual gem of nostalgia and the romance of early flight and the men who not only pioneered aviation but dared the unknown. Please view these short video's in the full screen mode to get their dynamic impact!
Those first young men, the pioneers, the aviators building super highways in an unknown sky. Leaving wives and children in their snug homes, with just a kiss and a promise to return.
Roaring into the clouds to battle wind and stars.
Their safety systems built of brain and heart. They landed where there were no lights. Transforming strange names from tall tales into pictures on postcards home. And those next young men, traveling further, faster, higher than any in history and the ones who followed them, who skimmed the edge of space, the edge of heaven, the edge of dreams.
And we follow them up there to live by an unbreakable promise. The same four words stitched into every uniform of every captain who takes their command.
Recently I had the very good fortune to be invited along on a flight out of the Napa Airport in a WWll Boeing B-17 bomber operated by the Commemorative Air Force. The Boeing B-17 Superfortress was utilized during WWll in the European Theater by the United States Air Force. Many of the USAF bomber groups utilizing this aircraft were based out of England during the war. You can view a great video of the aircraft I flew in at Gulf Coast Wing.
I was able to explore the various B-17 crew compartments during our flight, as well as chat with the crew. During taxi out and takeoff I had a front row seat view from the cockpit, just behind the aircraft commander and copilot. I was surprised at the high level of noise from the engines that the crew was exposed to, as well as the constant vibration from the four Wright Cyclone 1,200 hp radial engines. It was hard to imagine the bomber crews having to function for hours on end, while being exposed to the elements of below freezing temperatures at high altitude and the constant noise and vibration from the engines, all the while having to concentrate on their bombing mission and the constant threat of being jumped by enemy fighter aircraft. I gained new insight and a vivid appreciation for what these young bomber crews had to endure during the war. All in all it as an eye opening experience and one that I will always treasure.
Welcome to my Napa Valley Biplane Company Blog. I hope that you will take some time to enjoy the historical aviation information presented here and possibly consider taking a ride in our unique 1942 Boeing Stearman biplane. As both a part-time Barnstormer and full-time corporate pilot I hope to be able to share some of my past and present flying experiences with you. | 2019-04-20T10:54:48 | http://www.napavalleybiplane.com/ |
Bel Ami was Maupassant's second novel, set in Paris. It records journalist Georges Duroy's corrupt rise to power. He does this by coldly manipulating a number of powerful, intelligent, and wealthy mistresses. | 2019-04-19T11:18:20 | http://www.booksvirtual.com/bookdetail.php?bookid=11271 |
Ike Opara is officially a Minnesotan now. It's not down to the fact that he's one of several new faces with Minnesota United, or that he spent his New Year's holiday in the Twin Cities. Instead, it comes down to a recent purchase.
"I finally invested in a proper outerwear jacket," said Opara, a native of North Carolina. "It's amazing how comfortable and warm those things are. You don't actually realize how cold it is here."
Sporting Kansas City has traded former MLS Defender of the Year Ike Opara to Minnesota United for $900,000 in Targeted Allocation Money, which could reach $1 million if certain incentives are reached.
One source said that if Minnesota makes the playoffs, then the incentive will have been reached, adding to Sporting Kansas City's haul. The new playoff format approved by MLS for 2019 will see seven teams in each conference make the postseason.
The deal for the former MLS Defender of the Year could reach $1 million if certain incentives are reached.
Sporting Kansas City defender Ike Opara has asked SKC manager Peter Vermes to consider any trade offers that come in for the 2017 MLS Defender of the Year.
A source initially told ESPN FC of Opara's request, and Vermes confirmed that the topic came up during a conversation with the player last week, although he stressed that, "Right now, with our roster, I'm not shopping anybody."
Ike Opara is staying with Sporting Kansas City on a new contract.
Sporting Kansas City locked up goalkeeper Tim Melia, defender Ike Opara and forward Daniel Salloi to new contracts on Tuesday.
Melia, who was named the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year last season in his third campaign with the club, has committed his future to Sporting KC for another three years until 2020.
Opara, the league reigning Defender of the Year, was also rewarded with a new two-year deal with an option for 2020. The 29-year-old made his U.S. national team debut last month. | 2019-04-21T04:56:03 | http://www.espnfc.com/player/141318/ike-opara/blog |

If you are a fan of history-rich architecture, places and buildings, and would like a quick escape from the hustle and bustle of Metro Manila then you MUST visit Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar. An open-air museum and resort located in Barangay Pag-asa, Bagac, Bataan Philippines developed by Jose “Gerry” Acuzar out of his fascination with old houses and colonial buildings.
Heritage houses from all over the country placed in one spot.
Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar features old buildings that can take you back to the 18th century. Each and every building features awesome Filipino history and craftsmanship. Some of the buildings were actually transferred carefully from it's original location to this 400-hectare park, then restored to it's former glory. These buildings now serve as hotel accommodations and museums for visitors.
Each house has a unique story to tell.
I already figured out the fastest way and route to go there. Below is a step-by-step guideline I made in case you decided to visit anytime soon.
1). If you are coming from Cubao, you can ride a bus to reach Balanga Bataan from either of these two companies - Bataan Transit or Genesis Bus. Visit their official websites first to check the trip schedules and corresponding fare.
NOTE: Make sure to tell the jeep driver or bus conductor that you intend to visit Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar. They will then drop you to a certain spot where tricycles can be found.
3). Upon reaching Bagac, you can ride a tricycle to going to the entrance of the heritage park. Fare is 10 per person and travel time is around 5 minutes.
30 min to 1 hour guided tour of the heritage houses.
Hotel de Oriente Convention Centre originnally built in Binondo, Manila in 1889.
1. Can't stand the heat of the sun? You may borrow a big umbrella at the front desk.
2. The food and drinks inside is a bit pricey so you can bring a few snacks and drinks if you're on a tight budget.
3. The best time to visit Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar is around the afternoon so you can enjoy the beach and capture good photos during the magic hour 4-6pm.
5. Ask for a free tour on their own factory of bricks, wood carving.
The food here might be a bit pricey but it wont hurt if you treat yourself once in a while right?
A perfect spot for a cup of coffee.
I'm an old soul so I must say that I really love this place! It takes me back in time and gives me a glimpse of how the Filipino life were decades ago. It’s also so romantic, quaint and rustic making it a perfect place for couples and even for honeymooners. The architectural styles, forms and designs are all breathtaking, making it a good spot for photographers and architecture lovers. Don't forget your #OOTD too!
I can confidently say that the time you will spend and the amount you have to pay to visit Las Casas Filipinas de Acuzar are totally all worth it! The ambiance, the views and even the knowledge you will gain just by spending a few nights or even for just a day should you guarantee an unforgettable experience.
How familiar are you with the rice terraces found in our country? I think most of you know the great Banaue Rice Terraces but there are more rice terraces you might wanna check out. The Hapao Rice Terraces in Hungduan, Ifugao is my favorite, the terraces are wider and beautifully sculptured. The visual impact can be overwhelming. Walking around the stoned walled rice-fields going to the the small hot spring is also an awesome experience you don't wanna miss.
From the town of Banaue, Ifugao I hired a motorcycle/tour guide for only 1,500 pesos, the ride took around an hour. The road going to Hapao rice terraces was a bit bumpy, dusty and muddy but it offered an amazing view of the mountains and terraces.
Hungduan is located on the north western part of the Ifugao province, the climate is a bit cool especially in the morning and evening. The sun is very strong at noon so do not forget to put on some sunscreen and bring water to keep you hydrated.
The perfect time to visit is around March-April where the terraces are greener. The people of Hungduan still keep their traditions alive, in Hapao only the women are allowed to plant the rice, the men are the ones to harvest them. I saw a few women toil under the heat of the sun and I couldn't help but to admire how hardworking these people are.
Go for an easy hike through the stone walls of the terraces, at the end of the trail there is a small hot spring and a lovely cold river where you can have a dip. There is also a small store where you can buy a few snacks and refreshments.
Feel free to contact my friend/guide if you want to visit the Hapao Rice Terraces: Marvin Nallayyag 0916-962-0940. There is a side trip at the Banaue Ethnic Village which I will tell you more about later. Top up an extra 200 pesos to visit the Banaue View Point along the way.
The Hapao rice terraces is masterpiece of the ingenuity of the Ifugao people for generations. There's still plenty of rice terraces worth the visit in CAR Region alone. Go rice terraces hopping it's a new, perfect adventure this summer!
Traveling abroad for the first time can be both exciting and stressful. I always get a lot of questions regarding what to do, what to prepare and bring so I created this post to answer all of them and to guide you with your trip. Hope this helps!
Research and plan it well, that's one of the most enjoyable things to do before traveling. There are heaps of sites that may help you plan your trip, you just have to research well.
-Where do you wanna go? What do you wanna do? Where do you wanna stay? Be sure you can answer all of these questions. You may keep a handy notebook or device and take note of ideas or information which can be helpful for your trip.
-Study the social practices and taboos of the country you're going to. Each countries has it's distinct beliefs and traditions, be aware of it and respect it. Ex: clothes you can wear, places to avoid, public displays and behaviors.
-Learn a few greetings and phrases, esp. if you are going to a country where English is not widely understood.
-How much are you planning to spend for shopping? for accommodation and tour fees? Compute them and always allot an extra budget for other unexpected expenses.
-Contact your bank and make sure that your ATM/Credit Cards are activated to be used outside the country, don't forget to ask for any applicable fees.
-Leave some money behind for back up, I'm not trying to scare you but I met a few travelers who lost their money or got scammed along the way so I think it is always best that you keep some money somewhere, could be on your savings account or with a trusted person who can send you the money if ever you'll be needing it.
-There are heaps of maps available for downloads, try downloading some maps application on your phone. The offline maps like GuidePal and CityMaps2Go work wonders for me!
-Head to the local tourist information center as soon as you arrived at your destination they should be able to provide you free maps and tips to help you roam around easily.
-I try to arrive to a city prepared with a list of must visits but the best kept secrets are the ones you find along the way that never make the guides so give yourself a free time to just roam around and soak in the beauty and vibe of your surroundings.
-Make sure your passport and travel documents are updated and current. Your passport must be valid for 6 months before the expiration date.
-Most countries require a visa so make sure your able to secure them before leaving.
-Be ready to answer any questions the immigration officers may ask. Be ready to show all your documents like: sources of funds, itinerary, accommodations, personal identification, employment records. Just be confident with your answers and flash them your best smile.
-Bring a photocopy of your documents (passport, ID etc...) this is helpful in case you lost your important stuff and you need a proof to retrieve them. You may also keep a scanned copy of your documents on your email or phone so you may download it easily.
-Pack all valuables in your carry-on luggage, not inside any bags that will be checked in.
-If you need it, take it with you but don't take too much! Choose a bag that suits you, make sure it is comfortable to carry around and of course secure your luggage as a sensible precaution against tampering or theft.
-This was probably the most helpful video I've ever seen, watch this and become a pro packer.
Don't worry too much just relax and enjoy. Traveling is supposed to be an adventure, push boundaries and try new things. You don't have to stick to your itinerary all the time, a little detour is fun and exciting.
Traveling abroad is actually much easier to do than what you may expect. Always smile, take plenty of photos and cherish the experience.
After visiting Malaysia and Thailand I continued on another long journey by land, they said crossing the border of Thailand and Cambodia is tricky especially if you're a newbie. The idea of saving a lot of money instead of flying made me eager to do it, the amazing view from the bus and the challenge I'll get is an additional. Crossing the border of Malaysia and Thailand was a breeze but my experience in the Poipet border is very much different. The locals can get too aggressive so they can earn money and you may feel harassed at times. Arm yourself with enough knowledge and stay focus throughout the trip and I can guarantee you to have a smooth journey. | 2019-04-21T10:21:39 | http://www.breakawayph.com/ |

The recent gambling controversy surrounding Counter-Strike: Global Offensive has caused Valve to go on the… offensive.
The name behind the popular digital distribution platform Steam has published an update pertaining to in-game trading, stating that the introduction of the feature back in 2011 was simply to make it easier for players to get the items they wanted from supported games. However, recent years have seen to the inception of a number of gambling websites that have utilized Steam’s trading feature for their own illegal benefits.
The post further clarified that Valve has never partnered with any such gambling websites and nor does it intend to in the future. The company’s Erik Johnson also pointed out that recent rumors about Valve’s involvement are baseless since it has never received any revenue from such websites or platforms.
These sites have basically pieced together their operations in two-part fashion. First, they are using the OpenID API as a way for users to prove ownership of their Steam accounts and items. Any other information they obtain about a user’s Steam account is either manually disclosed by the user or obtained from the user’s Steam Community profile (when the user has chosen to make their profile public). Second, they create automated Steam accounts that make the same web calls as individual Steam users.
Utilizing Steam’s OpenID API in such a manner (running gambling businesses) is a breach of the user agreement. Valve is going to begin sending out takedown notices to all such websites, forcing them to cease their illegal operations through Steam. In case they do not comply, Valve is ready to “pursue the matter as necessary”.
Last week, a very popular Counter-Strike: Global Offensive gambling website called CS:GO Lotto was revealed to be run by two YouTube celebrities. Trevor “TmarTn” Martin and Tom “Syndicate” Cassell had for long been promoting the website but never revealed that they were actually the owners. All gambling events streamed were staged to pull in unsuspecting users. Both have since then accepted the claim and offered brief apologies to the masses in an attempt to calm the controversy.
This isn’t the first time that Valve has looked at the gambling business in disdain. Earlier this year, it began warning users against phishing, scamming, spamming and malware attempts by flagging all URLs related to gambling websites. | 2019-04-23T18:45:38 | https://techdrake.com/2016/07/valve-begins-shutting-down-gambling-sites-sends-out-takedown-notices/ |

The Swans triumphed 3-1 against the Reds the last time these two sides met in the League Cup, in October 2012, and they went on to lift the famous trophy that season, beating Bradford City 5-0 in the Final at Wembley.
Newcastle United and Manchester City locked horns at this stage of the Capital One Cup last season and they will clash again at the Etihad on Wednesday, live on Sky Sports.
City won their Fourth Round tie 2-0 a year ago, on their way to winning the competition, and they've since recorded two more 2-0 successes in the Premier League against the Magpies.
Another all-Premier League clash on Wednesday sees Stoke City and Southampton go head-to-head, while Sami Hyypia takes his struggling Brighton & Hove Albion side to Tottenham Hotspur. The Seagulls' 3-0 Round 3 victory against Burton is their only win in their last 11 outings. | 2019-04-25T20:04:37 | https://www.efl.com/news/2014/october/capital-one-cup-round-4-preview/ |
Liverpool hammered Bournemouth for the fourth-straight time, scoring a 3-0 defeat to go back ahead of Manchester City on the Premier League table on Saturday at Anfield.
Sadio Mane, Georginio Wijnaldum, and Mohamed Salah scored in the win, as all four matches have finished 3-0 or 4-0.
Liverpool and Man City are currently even in matches played, with City playing tomorrow.
Bournemouth sits 11th with 33 points.
Mane has been performing well in Liverpool’s lull, and made it 1-0 when he darted in front of Dan Gosling to put a header inside of the near post.
The goal made Anfield explode, a week of title consternation eased by the stadium’s heroes.
Wiljnaldum spun a classy chip over the top of Boruc to make it 2-0, an exquisite bit of work.
Mohamed Salah nearly put the match out of reach in the 45th minute, an inventive half volley nearly dipping over Boruc.
He would end it early in the second, with Roberto Firmino backheeling a Naby Keita set-up to Salah for a left-footed finish inside the 18. | 2019-04-19T06:22:43 | https://soccer.nbcsports.com/2019/02/09/liverpool-back-on-track-with-bournemouth-blowout-video/ |

Art. XXXIX.—On some New Species of New Zealand Plants.
By John Buchanan, of the Geological Survey Department.
Haloragis aggregata, Buchanan. n. sp.
A slender much branched herb, procumbent at the base. Branches very narrow, erect, 4 angled, 4–5 inches high, scabrid. Leaves .¼–.½ inch long, opposite, distant, ovate oblong, acute, tapering into a short petiole, with 3–5 deep cut pungent serratures on each side, margin thickened and scabrid, both surfaces hispid with scattered appressed hairs, scarcely membranous. Flowers hermaphrodite, pedicellate, in pairs with bracteate leaflets, aggregated at the ends of the branches into dense round heads or corymbs, by the union of three or more heads; sepals 4, triangular acute; petals 4, hood shaped, with a few scattered long hairs, reddish, rather longer than the sepals; stamens 8, anthers linear, filaments equal in length to the anthers, exserted between the calyx lobes with the 4 large plumose stigmas, and persistent after the fall of the petals. Fruit 1 line long, 4 angled, with 4 intermediate costa, smooth and shining, 4 celled, 4 seeded.
This addition to an already large southern genus differs much from any of the described species either in New Zealand or Australia. The specific name has been chosen to indicate the most prominent character, the aggregation of the heads.
Collected by H. H. Travers, near Lake Guyon, Nelson Province, February, 1871.
Plate XIII.—Fig. 1. Plant natural size. 2. Fruit with persistent stamens and stigmas. 3. Stamen. 4. Plumose stigma. 5. Hood-shaped petal. 6. Section of fruit with 4 suspended seeds. 7. Leaf with thickened margin and appressed hairs. 8. Seed. All magnified.
a. australis, Buchanan. n. sub-sp.
slender, glabrous. Leaves 3–4 inches long, involute, filiform, rigid, setaceous; secund on the outer culms, glabrous; ligule none; sheaths broad, with long silky hairs at mouth; panicle 1–.½ inches long; spikelets 3–4 on short pilose pedicels 6–7 lines long, 4–7 flowered. Flowers unisexual; empty glumes unequal, oblong lanceolate; flowering glumes not included 4–5 lines long; hispid on the margins, and with long silky hairs at base and on sides, deeply bifid; awn one half longer than glume, recurved, flattened, and twisted like a corkscrew; scale fimbriate on the top.
This grass is found at considerable altitudes, and covered by the snows of winter during several months in the year; it forms a very coarse herbage for sheep, although like other species, of the genus, the early growth of spring is more grateful and nutritious; the close compacted mass of stems, leaf sheaths and roots, in this and other Danthoniœ become blanched and succulent, and are relished much by wild pigs, which root them up; this food is also extensively eaten by rats, which swarm on the grass lands of the South Island, and are vegetable feeders in those districts.
Collected by J. Buchanan, on the Kaikoura Mountains, and by H. H. Travers, near Lake Guyon, Nelson.
d. alpina, Buchanan. n. sub-sp.
Culms numerous, 12–16 inches high, slender, rigid, glabrous. Leaves as long as the culms, glabrous, filiform, setaceous, excessively numerous; ligule none; mouth of sheath with a very few erect hairs; panicle 1.½–2 inches long, of 2–3 short, erect, branches, broad; spikelets ½ inch long, 3–5 on each branch, 4–6 flowered; empty glumes ½ inch long, white, nearly equal, longer than the spikelet; lower flowering glume villous, with tufts of hair at the base and on the sides to above the middle, deeply bifid; lateral awns shorter than the glumes; central awn slightly twisted, flat, as long as the glume, with lateral awns included, reflected or inflected; upper glume truncate or scarcely bifid, not villous; margins of glumes and awns scabrid; the anthers are much longer than in the other varieties.
This variety of D. semi-annularis is an abundant grass on the bald-headed mountains of the South Island, near Dusky Bay, forming a close sward of harsh pasture above the limits of bush, the mountains being covered by snow during winter, and its weight bearing so long on the grass, it shows flattened and appressed to the ground on their melting in spring.
The varieties of this species are very wide spread grasses in New Zealand, more common, however, at low altitudes, where they are found diffused over the pastures in single plants or small tufts, and are considered excellent feed for sheep and cattle.
It may perhaps be judged unnecessary to add another variety to the many already known of this variable species, but the habit of this Alpine form, with its succulent roots and confluent tussocks, demands notice.
Collected by J. Buchanan, at Dusky Bay, 1863.
Acœna glabra, Buchanan. n. sp.
A prostrate, perfectly glabrous herb, branches ascending, leafy. Leaves ¾ inch long; leaflets 3–4 pairs, coriaceous ¼ inch long, obovate or cuneate at the base, deeply cut into 2–3 obtuse teeth on each side; scapes 3 inches long, leafy at the base, with often one small leaf near the middle; heads large, globose; calyx much compressed, unarmed, 4 angled, 2 angles very small, the other 2 much produced, wing-like; petals 4, united at the base, persistent, green, tipped with dark red; bracteolæ entire, or 3 cleft at the point, fimbriate or lacerate on the margins; stamens 2; filaments long; stigma dilated upwards, fimbriate or lacerate on both margins; achene 1, pyriform, suspended from the point.
This very distinct species may easily be distinguished by the regular ascending branches, small coriaceous leaves and large capitulum of flowers, its more exact specific distinctions will be found in the much compressed calyx, the 2 lateral expansions, which are almost produced into wings, and the perfectly glabrous state of all its parts.
Collected on the mountains near Lake Guyon, Nelson, at an altitude of 3,000 feet, by H. H. Travers, February, 1871.

Celmisia lateralis, Buchanan. n. sp.
Rostkovia Novœ Zelandiœ, Buchanan, n.sp.
branous. Florets numerous, those of the ray ¼ inch long, straight or spreading, revolute in old flowers; disc flat, deeply pitted; achene silky.
Collected by H. H. Travers, on the mountains near Lake Guyon, Nelson, March, 1871.
Plate XV.—Fig. 1. Plant natural size. 2. Head newly opened. 3. Floret of the disc. 4. Floret of the ray. 5. Arms of style. 6. Gland of style. 7. Stamen. 8. Pappus. 9. Outer involucral scale. 10. Inner involucral scale. All magnified.
Rostkovia Novœ Zelandiœ, Buchanan. n. sp.
Culms rising from a creeping rhizome, tufted, rigid, very narrow, 6–8 inches long, terete, finely grooved. Leaves numerous, rigid, very narrow, shining, plano-convex, terete near the top and pungent, each culm sheathed by three leaves to above the middle; leaves ⅓ longer than the culms, enveloped below by 3 blunt apiculate sheaths. Flowers solitary, terminal, ¾ inch long, 1 bracteate; bract membranous 1/10 inch long, very broad, entire, or sometimes bifid to the base. Perianth of 6 leaflets, pale brown, unequal, 3 outer longest; leaflets linear oblong, acute, with a membranous border; stamens 6, included; anthers long linear; stigma not seen, apparently falling off on the splitting of the capsule; capsule ½ inch long, oblong, acute, bluntly triangular, coriaceous, dark brown, shining, 1 celled, loculicidally dehiscing by splitting at top into 3 valves. Seeds numerous, small, pale coloured, narrow, outer membrane produced at both ends, and thickened on one side, forming a white pearly ridge.
Collected by H. H. Travers, on the Nelson mountains, at an altitude of 3,000 feet; and by Dr. Haast, on the mountains of Canterbury.
Plate XVI.—Fig. 1. Plant, natural size. 2. Flower. 3. Ripe capsule. 4. Section of capsule. 5. Seed. 6. Old stamen. All magnified.
Carex pyrenica, Wahlenburg. n. sub-sp.
A marked variation from this species is found on the mountains of the South Island.
Culms 5–8 inches high. Leaves about equal in length to the culms, soft and erect; spikelet pyriform, dark brown; glumes with a stout nerve; utricle with the beak dark brown and acute; stigmas 2, twisted back in fruit; nut ovate, flattened, smooth, pale brown. | 2019-04-21T13:17:35 | http://rsnz.natlib.govt.nz/volume/rsnz_04/rsnz_04_00_001600.html |

If you’re interested in visiting one of the best waterfalls in the world, then you’re reading the right thing. Kawasan Falls is a 3-tier waterfall located in the southwest of the Philippine island, Cebu. Cebu itself is an interesting and beautiful place to visit, but in this post, I’m going to concentrate on the waterfall itself. | 2019-04-19T22:27:23 | https://tefltravelling.wordpress.com/tag/photography/ |
Dave Eggers' history as the motive force behind the experimental, expectations-challenging literary-goofery platform McSweeney's hangs heavily over his new book, What Is The What. Simultaneously billed as an autobiography and a novel, it does manage to be both: Eggers interviewed Sudanese refugee Valentino Achak Deng at length about his life, then wove his horrifying story into a fictionalized narrative. Eggers' stagy, novelistic writing is jarring, and it inevitably casts every given fact into doubt. But while it's sometimes hard to take the literary tropes seriously, the autobiographical content is riveting, and in all likelihood, more accessible than any similarly massive, sprawling non-fiction treatise on Sudan's politics.
Eggers frames Deng's story with a break-in at his home: Living as a political refugee in America, Deng is assaulted and robbed in his apartment, and his ordeal stretches out throughout 475 pages as, suffering, he recalls how he suffered as a child in Sudan. A child of an African tribe, the Dinka, he grows up in an ethnically mixed area, but political events far away forcibly set Arab tribesmen from north Sudan against the Africans in the south. The rebel group SPLA, led by Dinka John Garang, is no friendlier, and Deng and his family are caught in the middle, seeking safe havens in an increasingly unstable, violent battleground. When Arab horsemen destroy Deng's village, he starts a lengthy journey that lasts more than a decade and leads to multiple countries and refugee camps.
Eggers skims over the region's voluminous religious and political divides, presenting a bare-bones version of events and concentrating on the increasingly wild rumors and hopes that the refugees live by, and on the mundane details of life for a lost child in a generation of them. In his oddest conceit, his version of Deng mentally addresses each new installment of his story to the individuals he encounters or remembers, evoking their names over and over as he describes his heartbreaking journey. He isn't telling an abstract story to the air, he's recounting his own life directly and determinately to real people, demanding that they hear and see him. Though he couches that force of will in a mild, polite voice, it's hard to resist in any format. His story comes in an odd shape, but it reads as a story that must be told, and must be attended. | 2019-04-21T14:47:21 | https://aux.avclub.com/dave-eggers-what-is-the-what-1798202279 |

What’s your backstoré with Rosé bubblé? André’s family participated in the blending of wines for years when they owned one of Paris’ finest hotels: Le Bristol. The blending of proprietary wines is actually a process that dates back to the late 1700s, when Le Boeuf à la Mode was one of only a few restaurants in Paris, or all of France, for that matter (Le Boeuf à la Mode was established by André’s ancestors in 1792). Anectodalé, at Le Bristol, the House wines were selected and shipped by the prestigious Bordeaux First Growth Cru Classé Château La Mission Haut-Brion, in part because André’s father was the godchild of the then owner, Mrs. Woltner.
As André and I carry on a proud family tradition of creating proprietary wines, we honor the spirit of our former La Caravelle New York restaurant, which was founded in 1960. Both of us are passionate about Champagne, and we had the opportunity to have our own Champagne and introduce it in early 1998. André and I, when creating our wines, were making sure the wines reflect the image of La Caravelle: timeless classic and great quality for the price.
When did you first make your Rosé Champagne? I was obsessed with Rosé Champagne, and urged André and our Champagne producer to create our own. This was in the late 90’s. I kept insisting that Rosé Champagne was IT, only to fall on deaf ears (I was told “this will never catch on, men will not drink a pink beverage” etc.). I remember saying “Mark my words, Rosé Champagne is going to be BIG!” Anyway, my dream came true in 2008, when we started working with another producer, De Castellane, who agreed to produce our Rosé! And now, guess what our biggest seller is?
Tell us all everything we need to know about La Caravelle Rosé Champagne. Our producer De Castellane in Epernay, is part of the Laurent-Perrier Group, and the Winemaker for the group, Michel Fauconnet, and his team, are responsible for La Caravelle Rosé.
La Caravelle Rosé Champagne is non-vintage. The white base blend of our Rosé is 40% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Noir and 30% Pinot Meunier, all grapes originating from 70 selected Champagne villages, and composed of 3 vintages. Ours is a blended Rosé (as opposed to the bleeding Rosé also called Saignée, where the red grapes are left longer so the skin color bleeds in to the wine), therefore, some still Pinot Noir wine (from the villages of Aÿ and Bouzy) is blended in to the clear base blend, and that’s how the beautiful delicate salmon pink color is obtained. Then it’s aged for 2 years on the lees. Fun fact: Only Champagne (or sparkling wines) can be made by blending white and red grapes wines. There is a rich blend of floral and red berry notes evoking hits of cherry, almond, red currant, pomegranate and fennel. It’s ideal as an apéritif that will perfectly accompany an entire menu from salmon to white meats, as well as pairing particularly well with desserts that feature red berries.
Where’s your favorite place to stop and drink the rosé? This is like asking which is one’s favorite child!!! Sushi Nakazawa, Loring Place, Gabriel Kreuther, Aureole, Corkbuzz.
When you aren’t sipping bubbly, what’s your go-to drink? Leo Robitchek’s Hot Lips Margarita, the Negroni from Marta, Burgundy (d’Angerville Volnay Les Champans) or Burgundy Rosé Pierre-Yves Colin Morey.
Who would you most like to share a glass with? Has to be someone who appreciates good wine: My Somm friends Pascaline Lepeltier, Dustin Wilson, Bobby Stuckey.
What have been some of your favorite recent meals in NYC? Incredibly hard for me to pick just one, so here we go: Le Bernardin, Jean-Georges, Le Coucou, Loring Place, Gabriel Kreuther, Flora Bar, Daniel, Batard, Ilili, Union Square Café, Momofuku Ssam Bar, David’s Café, and soon again Eleven Madison Park. Oh and very recently I loved The Pool! | 2019-04-23T10:31:29 | http://yeswayrose.com/2017/09/27/meet-the-rosemaker-rita-jammet/ |
Super Bowl LIII wasn't the most exciting championship game, with the New England Patriots beating the Los Angeles Rams 13-3.
However, some bettors may have had some exciting nights if they made the right calls. Of note, some unexpected props with large odds hit, leading to a great return on investment for those making the right calls.
Scott Hastings of OddsShark posted a list of Super Bowl LIII prop bet results Sunday, and here's a look at a few unlikelier props that returned well.
The over/under for this game was 55.5 points, so needless to say, the one-touchdown prop brought back a huge return on investment. If you were bearish on the Rams, you received 20 times your bet.
Pats quarterback Tom Brady made 35 pass attempts on Sunday. Only one of them was picked, but it just so happened to be his first. New England had 407 total yards and only one turnover, so it wasn't as if the offense was inept on a day when defenses largely ruled. But if you were particularly pessimistic about Brady's first throw, then you won big.
Playing Monday Morning Quarterback, this looks like one of the best value bets on the prop sheet. Edelman was the leading postseason receiver entering the playoffs and finished that way after his 10-catch, 141-yard performance.
Los Angeles Rams cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman (or the officials) were to thank for this one after he was questionably called for unnecessary roughness on running back Rex Burkhead.
Not a huge surprise here as Michel had 53 carries and five touchdowns in his two AFC playoff games leading into the Super Bowl.
Betting this prop feels like playing Russian roulette, as it's hard to discover an edge. Still, if you bet blue, cash your slips for four times your investment.
Bettors who placed this wager may have been nervous after Pats kicker Stephen Gostkowski missed a 46-yard field goal wide left with the score tied at zero, but after three punts, he hit a 42-yarder to break the scoreless tie.
On a night where defenses ruled, this is a fairly surprising result. Even more shocking was that this didn't hit the over after Rams defensive end John Franklin-Myers sacked Brady late in the first quarter. L.A. had three other quarterback hits, but none of them resulted in sacks. | 2019-04-26T04:19:10 | https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2819188-super-bowl-53-prop-bets-reviewing-results-for-biggest-hits-and-misses |
Honestly,I didn't know that there was an award for the female work in the comics industry.
Usually, the female artists are marginal member of this universe. They are not recognized, not even metioned.
Again, I don´t know how the lulu awards work. But, I hope that the artist that are awarded could make an impact in this "phallu-cratic" industry. And, yes, i'm a man, for real. | 2019-04-19T08:33:56 | http://adalisaz.blogspot.com/2008/04/lulu-awards-moving-to-new-york-city-for.html |

It's a stretch to say that imposing a Stalinist command structure over the kind of programs your computer will run is to make them easier to install and cut down on malware. Apple's operating systems are nearly invulnerable to viruses because the deep infrastructure is cadged from Unix and other open-source places, which are inherently better-built and less vulnerable to viruses. I suppose if everyone ran Linux, viruses targeting it would be more common, but surely part of the reason Apple made this choice was to deliberately cripple the functionality of the device in order to force their customers into the Apple ecosystem and thereby make a big pile of cash. | 2019-04-24T10:06:13 | http://www.ryanlouiscooper.com/2012/03/new-windows-8.html |

Explanation: Newborn stars are forming in the Eagle Nebula. This image, taken with the Hubble Space Telescope in 1995, shows evaporating gaseous globules (EGGs) emerging from pillars of molecular hydrogen gas and dust. The giant pillars are light years in length and are so dense that interior gas contracts gravitationally to form stars. At each pillars' end, the intense radiation of bright young stars causes low density material to boil away, leaving stellar nurseries of dense EGGs exposed. The Eagle Nebula, associated with the open star cluster M16, lies about 7000 light years away. The pillars of creation were imaged again in 2007 by the orbiting Spitzer Space Telescope in infrared light, leading to the conjecture that the pillars may already have been destroyed by a local supernova, but light from that event has yet to reach the Earth.
Be Honest: Have you seen this image before? | 2019-04-24T13:51:55 | http://sprite.phys.ncku.edu.tw/astrolab/mirrors/apod_e/ap160424.html |

Children's Hospital Boston has begun enrolling patients as part of an ambitious new multidisciplinary study of autism that will attempt to pin down its genetic and biochemical causes. Results could be available in a year or two, and could yield a greater biological understanding of autistic spectrum disorders, better diagnostic and prognostic techniques, and potential medical treatments.
More than 90 percent of autism cases are believed to have a genetic component, and multiple genes are believed to be involved. But although much research has been done and many candidate genes identified, none have been clearly implicated. The Children's study, partially funded by the Nancy Lurie Marks Family Foundation, will bring together researchers in genetics, genomics, bioinformatics, and developmental medicine to try to solve the puzzle.
Autism is a complex behavioral syndrome defined by developmental deficits, particularly communication deficits, impaired social interaction and repetitive behaviors. Affecting about one in 1,000 people, it is now thought of as a spectrum of disorders including autism, Asperger's syndrome and pervasive developmental disorder. There is no specific medical treatment, although behavioral interventions help children on the autistic spectrum live fuller, more functional lives.
The Children's Developmental Medicine Center will first conduct detailed behavioral evaluations of the children and their families, led by Drs. Janice Ware and Leonard Rappaport. Subjects will be assessed for autistic spectrum disorders and carefully classified according to rigorous clinical research criteria. The goal is to develop behavioral profiles that can be correlated with genetic data. Children and their parents will then give saliva samples for DNA analysis and blood samples for RNA gene expression studies.
Led by Drs. Ingrid Holm and Louis Kunkel, researchers in the Children's Program in Genomics will study the DNA samples, performing association studies and linkage studies to look for genetic differences (polymorphisms) that are shared within families and may accompany clinical manifestations of autistic spectrum disorders.
The Program in Genomics also will perform microarray ("gene-chip") studies of RNA from white blood cells to examine differences in gene activity, or expression, among autistic children, their parents, and matched control subjects. By looking at 60,000 genes simultaneously and determining which are turned "on" and "off," the researchers will seek patterns or genetic "signatures" that mark the different autistic spectrum disorders and give clues to their biological causes. The investigators hope to show that gene expression in white blood cells is similar enough to that in brain cells to be a useful surrogate measure, avoiding the need to obtain and test brain tissue.
The Children's Hospital Informatics Program (CHIP), led by Dr. Isaac Kohane, will perform computational analyses to help detect subtle genetic patterns, group patients according to their gene-expression profiles, and apply statistical techniques to determine the reliability of the patterns and linkages found and eliminate false-positive findings. As new data become available, CHIP will factor them in to create the strongest possible predictive models for autistic spectrum disorders.
The Neurobiology Program of Children's Hospital, led by Dr. Michael Greenberg, will examine the connection between autism, a protein called brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and several genes known to regulate BDNF. BDNF regulates many aspects of brain development and function, including formation of synapses. Mutation of one gene that regulates BDNF, called MeCP2, has already been linked to Rett syndrome, which is characterized by mental retardation and autistic behaviors. Further studies of MeCP2 and related genes will explore how they work and how brain-cell activity triggers them. These investigations may uncover other genes and biochemical pathways that underlie autism.
Children and families enrolled in the Children's study also will be invited to take part in research at MIT's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences. Study participants will be tested for their ability to recognize and respond to faces (a critical deficit in autism), the development of specific language skills (also impaired in autism), and gross and fine motor function. Although not a formal part of the study, the data collected by MIT will be fed back into the Children's study and correlated with the genetic data.
Families interested in enrolling their child in the autism study should contact Lindsay Jackson at the Developmental Medicine Center (617-355-3076 or lindsay.jackson@childrens.harvard.edu).

It's solid acrylic construction means it will not yellow in the sunlight. The LED lighting and controls are permanently sealed inside these pieces, but they are rated at 50,000 hours of useable time which is over 17 years if you used it eight hours a day every day.
The included remote offers your choice of 20 solid color shades, three and seven color fade, three and seven color jump, strobe, brightness control, and pattern speed. For matching specific colors you can even fine tune to just the right shade with the DIY program feature. See the video demonstration below for more information.
The 7" LED cube worked great for us at a trade show. The cube itself looks and feels high quality. After being fully charge the battery lasted an entire 9 hour show day on flashing mode and could have lasted even longer.
My one complaint is there were no instructions on how to program the remote. The remote has a lot of customizable features, but I couldn't figure out how to program it to only flash certain colors. We left it on the default flashing option which alternates between a lot of colors. Worked out fine for this event.
I Bought these Glow Cubes for my catering buisness. I got them super fast and the looked amazing at a wedding show I was just at! I can not wait to keep using them! I got lots of compliments on them! Cant wait to buy more! | 2019-04-25T00:19:58 | http://www.barchefs.com/7-glow-cube-rechargeable/ |

Stakeholders attending the Monrovia City Corporation (MCC) two days Solid Waste conference have signed a resolution for a sustainable development of waste management support in Monrovia.The resolution was signed at the end of a two – day solid waste stakeholders conference.
The resolution among other things focuses on increasing national budgetary support for the management of waste in Monrovia, identifying revenue resources for waste and supporting the value chain for waste which includes recycling and reusing.
The resolution also calls for citizens’ action to support the waste sector, rally the local community to take responsibility of waste they produce and obligate the local business community to MCC’s waste management program.
Representatives from various groupings including key actors within the waste sector who affixed their signatures to the resolution say the document will drive MCC’s solid waste management plan in order to address the waste challenges the city is faced with.
City Mayor Jefferson T.Koijee declares waste management a “potential national security threat” which requires a head-on- approach. He says improper waste disposal is a national security threat which requires a set of holistic approaches anchored on firm community engagement.
He references the rapid spread of the 2014 outbreak of the deadly Ebola virus which he notes can be traced to the fundamental challenge of waste management in Monrovia and other areas.He vows that the City Government will not hesitate to implement or enforce the outcome of the stakeholder’s dialogue which seeks to promote a healthy, clean and green environment.
The Commissioner for Environment of Lagos, Nigeria, Dr. Babatunde Adejare told participants at the start of the conference Friday,“the fight against waste must be intensified not just Liberia, but across Africa”.“This will serve as a beginning of promoting a safe, clean, green and united Africa”, Dr. Adejare told the gathering.
He lauded the MCC for steps taken to solve improper waste disposal which according to him has become “a national embarrassment to the rest of Africa”.Montserrado County Superintendent Florence Brandy for her part cautioned communities to lead the campaign against garbage, stressing that improper waste disposal cannot be fought without citizens’ participation.
Meanwhile, the stakeholders’ conference targeted a review and update of current solid waste disposal mechanisms as well as brainstorm on best practices and effective strategies for the sanitary well-being of Monrovia and its people.
Stakeholders and institutions invited to participate in the two days conference shared their entities’ works, programs and support to solid waste management within the city limit of Monrovia. | 2019-04-24T23:13:19 | https://thenewdawnliberia.com/mcc-ends-two-days-solid-waste-stakeholder-conference/ |
