It's over a year later and this post applies even more now. Having a bowel perforation, sepsis and collapsed lung nearly killed me. I sometimes wonder why I'm still here fighting. I'm halfway thru writing a blog about my time in ICU and step-down. I am still processing my ICU-itis and the fear i was wrapped in, unknown to anyone. I have a clear picture of what my patients used to go thru now and it's not pretty. Bare with me…I'm slowly and shakily pressing the keys again.
Adoptees diagnosed with broken heart syndrome can benefit from the support of friends and family members, draw comfort from their faith, obtain understanding and sympathy from support groups, and profit from the advice of therapists and health professionals.
The world needs to recognize the depth of this corruption and the endless pain and trauma it creates for generations. Great read by Lara.
A controversial topic in the adoption world. Language, names, history. I didn't have a name. I have been underfire many times for the use of the word "birthmother".
There was a woman who gave birth to me yet never named me. I had a woman who was to care for me, yet hated the sight of me.
I'm an adoptee who never had a mother, was never mothered. I'm one of the many motherless daughters.

The pension attacks keep coming and St. Louis fire fighters are in the eye of the storm.
Democratic Mayor Francis Slay is proposing to reform the pensions of fire fighters, including those who are vested in the pension system.
A fire fighter becomes vested within the pension system with 20 years on the job. The Mayor is calling for deep reductions for active fire fighters, including those who are vested.
New fire fighters would see big cuts including: reduced disability pensions to 25 percent of salary for those unable to be fire fighters but still able to work; raise fire fighters' yearly contributions from 8 percent to 9 percent and end the practice of returning contributions; recalculate annual pensions for new fire fighters on the last three years of pay instead of the last two; increase years of service needed to max out at 75 percent of pay; eliminate for new fire fighters the Deferred Retirement Option Plan (DROP); and raise the minimum full retirement age to 55.
Fire fighters argue that the mayor is not following protocol and is spreading misinformation about who controls the fire fighters' pension.
Under the current system, any pension benefit change must begin with enabling legislation from the state general assembly. It then goes to the Board of Alderman for permissive legislation and has to be signed by the mayor before it would be enacted.
Fire fighters say Mayor Slay is making up his own rules. IAFF Local 73 requested that the "checks and balances" that involve the state be recognized. Fire fighters asked the city for an impasse resolution, up to and including binding arbitration. The city refused. The mayor declared during the first meeting of the year that the city needed to save $7 million.
Fire fighters say the mayor never tried to meet them in the middle during the negotiating process and communication.
IAFF Local 73 president Chris Molitor says the union has a plan to save $6.6 million.
The fire fighters' plan would change for new hires the accounting method used to fund the pensions, reduce disability benefits as already proposed, return 75 percent instead of all of each fire fighters pension contributions, decrease final salary calculations and add a minimum retirement age of 55 or 30 years of service.
A bill to eliminate the retirement system and start a new system was filed February 14, but the union did not receive notice that the city declared an impasse until later that night. The notice was sent via email, with a mailed letter arriving at the union hall.
Last year, IAFF Local 73 was successful in getting enabling legislation through the State Assembly, changing the disability benefit. It was overwhelmingly supported by the union membership. Fire fighters said the change would have immediately saved the city between $1.1 and $1.3 million with greater savings in the future. When Alderman Joe Voccarro introduced the bill to the Board of Aldermen on behalf of IAFF Local 73, the chair of the Public Employee Committee refused to allow the bill to be introduced.
Fire fighters say what's more disheartening is that Mayor Slay, a Democrat, says he is on the side of labor. The union has learned that the mayor has spent over $250,000 of city money on a private law firm, hired to provide legal advice and counseling to strip fire fighters of their current pensions. (Last year, the firm also contributed $40,000 to the mayor's re-election campaign). Fire fighters say the mayor has refused to give copies of the legal opinion from the firm to other elected officials.
"The treatment of the fire fighters and his unwillingness to give contractual guarantees would suggest that he is not pro-labor, and is quite the opposite," Molitor says.
What do you think of Mayor Slay's effort to reform the pension of fire fighters?
Scott Walker for President in 2016? Oh No!!
As a former resident of the City of St. Louis, and a current resident of the county, I am shocked at the mayor's lack of desire to bargain in good faith with the members of Local 73.


More than 100 library, archive and research institutions from countries across the European Union and internationally, representing over 650,000 information professionals, have joined together in a letter asking the European Union to engage constructively in text-based discussions at the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) on copyright exceptions for libraries and archives.
Organisations from Spain, France, Poland, Italy, Slovakia, Lithuania, the Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, the United Kingdom, Armenia, Bulgaria, Russia and Sweden, as well as Australia, Canada and Colombia, have joined with European and international library and archive associations highlighting the copyright challenges preventing international research collaboration, preservation of cultural heritage and new forms of innovation.
The signatories of the letter urge the European Union and its Member States to ensure that text-based discussion of an international instrument on copyright exceptions and limitations for libraries and archives continues to be reflected in the mandate of the WIPO Standing Committee on Copyright & Related Rights (SCCR), and that the European Union engages constructively in these discussions. At the last meeting of the SCCR, the European Union tried to reverse conclusions that had been previously agreed by all of the world's countries at WIPO.

Kansas City Chiefs News
Steve Spagnuolo sees 'young Tom Brady' in Joe Burrow
The Bengals have the weapons — and the quarterback — to hang with the Chiefs. The counter to that lies in the pressure.

When the NFL's schedule was released in the summer, how many of us figured the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17 would hold significant AFC playoff implications?
Not many.
That is the beauty of playing the games. New teams emerge every year — and the Bengals certainly fit that bill. Under the leadership of quarterback Joe Burrow, Cincinnati finds itself right in the mix at the top of the AFC, two spots behind the Chiefs at No. 3.
"He's a smooth operator," said Chiefs head coach Andy Reid — often considered one of the game's quarterback whisperers. "He does a real nice job. Looks like he's smart, well-coached, and he's accurate. He's got some good wide receivers that he puts it up to, and they do a nice job too. But he's great for the National Football League right now. These young quarterbacks, we're so lucky to have them in this league — and it looks like we might have a couple more coming in this next year. It just makes the competition so great, and that's what this is all about."
Burrow comes into Sunday right behind Patrick Mahomes in passing yards at 4,165 (Mahomes has 4,310), slightly behind Mahomes in touchdowns at 30 (Mahomes has 33) and having thrown one more interception than Mahomes at 14.
But more significant than stats, Mahomes sees intangibles in the second-year player out of LSU.
"Not only is he a great football player, I think he's a great leader," said Mahomes of Burrow. "He has that special knack where he can lead anybody. No matter where he's at, he can go out there with that swag, that mentality of 'I'm going to win no matter what.' It takes a lot of experience, and it takes a lot of just going out there and doing it for people to believe that. He has that as well as the physical talent to go out there and make a lot of stuff happen."
As it would play out during the week, defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo has likened Burrow to perhaps Mahomes' greatest early-career nemesis.

"This might sound crazy," began Spagnuolo, "but I see a young Tom Brady. This guy does everything. He does not look like a second-year quarterback that missed a lot of his first year. Totally impressed with him. Began in the meeting on Tuesday. We were just finishing up the last game (against Pittsburgh) but began the meeting talking about Joe because I think he's that good."
And much like Mahomes, the Cincinnati organization has properly surrounded him with elite weapons. Burrow spreads the ball around between Tyler Boyd — who has nearly 800 yards on the year — and Tee Higgins, who has already broken 1,000.
But perhaps the most extraordinary organizational move was selecting rookie wideout Ja'Marr Chase with this year's fifth overall pick. Chase caught 84 passes from Burrow for 1,780 yards and 20 touchdowns at LSU in 2019 — and in the NFL, they have picked up right where they left off. Burrow's favorite target, Chase leads the trio with more than 1,100 yards and 10 touchdowns. Boyd and Higgins combine for another 10.
"I think this is the best threesome, trio that we have gone through against this year," said Spagnuolo. "I think our guys respect that, know that. Just turn on any play, any game and they just take turns being the leading receiver for a particular game. Heck of a challenge for our guys. That's what we're working right now. There has been a lot of conversation about those three wideouts."
Making it even more challenging to defend Burrow is his ability to run the football. In addition to his above-average awareness and plus arm, he is not afraid to take off when necessary. The Chiefs realize they will have to pay attention to that.

"He runs a 4.7," said defensive tackle Chris Jones. "He's versatile. He has a great arm. His arm talent can be comparable to Justin Herbert or Josh Allen, the big-throw guys like that. Got a lot of arm power. Accuracy is some of the top of the league. He has a way to get out of trouble when needed. We definitely have to be correct on our angles this week and the way we collapse the pocket for this guy. He can be challenging at times, at all times. He can make all the throws. He can make the tight throws, so we got to do a good job at containing this guy, keeping him in the pocket, getting pressure on him in his face — whatever we can do to affect this guy because he can be a game-changer."
As Jones alluded to, the emphasis on quarterback pressure could not be more critical when it comes to containing Burrow. Fortunately for Kansas City, it should have an advantage there against a weak Cincinnati offensive line.
The Chiefs' front four is in the best stretch of its season — and the Bengals have given up a third-worst 47 sacks on the season. Burrow has been hit by opposing players 42 times.
The Chiefs know Burrow and the weapons will get theirs; the key will be to limit effectiveness enough for the win by affecting him as much as possible.
"Got to try to find some ways to make him uncomfortable," said Spagnuolo. "Easier said than done."

DrieM was created by dough-sheeting specialists in 2009 to produce artisanal bread lines. DrieM has developed several dough sheeting lines for a wide range of products.
The DrieM sheeting process consists out of a couple of steps always starting with the creation of a sheet of dough. From this sheet of dough almost all thinkable forms can be made using different steps in the same sheeting line. The three main forms that are available are cut, moulded (or coiled) and rounded. Therefore in terms of the shape of bread you are able to produce a great variety.
When it comes to ingredients and recipes, you also have much more freedom compared to traditional dough make-up. Traditional or classic dough make-up has its limitations when it comes to moisture content or percentage of liquid ingredients that can be used. With the DrieM dough sheeting equipment you can go far beyond these limits. It will allow you to process doughs with very low and high percentages of liquid ingredients (42%-90%+). Dough sheeting is a gentle process and therefore it will not damage doughs with a high amount of liquid ingredients or richer doughs with fruit in them for example.
Strewing decorative seeds on, in or under is also possible using sheeting technology. In the sheeting process there are different stages where you will have the possibility to add seeds or other decorations.
Designed and dedicated to sheet a wide variety of bread dough.
A wide variety of dough viscosities can be processed over the line.
Bread structures varying from pin-pointed to very open can be achieved.
Easily accessible for cleaning and service.
User-friendly PLC screen with touchscreen display.
So using a single sheeting line will allow you to create all forms, use all recipes and be creative with decoration.
Interested in our sheeting lines? Or do you need more information or advice? Please contact us.

"Simplicity is the best way to show a beautiful woman", is a concept that is engraved on each ANGELINA design as a source of inspiration. Feminine colors and harmonius figures are part of this idea and are embodied in our shoes.
When tracing the designs, it is essential to take into account the nature of the leather, such as its elasticity, its strength and its porousness, a characteristic that allows for the foot's natural breathing and, thanks to the permeability of vapor, prevents sweating. In addition, while designing each model we take into account the combination of textures of different types of leather as well as the parity of the enamel colors.
Behind each pair of Angelina there is a designer who creates them with love and with that same passion, is a professional tango dancer. Thanks to this peculiarity, ANGELINA combines a special heel for dancing which is extremely tough, but stylish, tall and elegant, with a careful profile line of extreme delicacy which has a responsibility to make women's legs shine.
The designs are of pastel colors and have fine details that exalt the female character, such as buckles with rhinestones or decorations in fantasies that allow you to play with a balance between simplicity and coquette, a touch of distinction that makes them charming. It's a shoe designed to shine, and lets the woman who wears them be bright.

chitinase
chitinase An enzyme that catalyses the hydrolysis of chitin, a major constituent of fungal cell walls and of the exoskeleton of insects and other arthropods. It is synthesized by certain insect-eating animals, such as frogs, and also by certain plants as part of their defence against fungal infection (see hypersensitivity). Transfer of the chitinase gene between different plant species has been successfully undertaken in an attempt to enhance the resistance of susceptible species to pathogenic fungi.

Death of giant rabbit adds to United Airlines' woes
Published:Wednesday | April 26, 2017 | 12:00 AM
In this July 25, 2013 file photo, a United Airlines plane takes off from Newark Liberty International Airport in Newark, N.J.
United Airlines is reviewing the handling of a giant rabbit that died after it was shipped across the Atlantic on one of the carrier's flights, adding to a growing list of customer complaints for the US carrier.
Distraught breeder Annette Edwards told The Associated Press by phone Wednesday that a veterinarian checked Simon, a 10-month-old, three-foot (metre)-long continental rabbit, shortly before the animal was put on a flight from London's Heathrow airport to Chicago's O'Hare, before it was set to continue on to Kansas City.
"Simon had his vet check just before getting on the plane," she said from Worcestershire in central England. "He was fit as a fiddle."
Edwards has said Simon is the offspring of Darius, which the Guinness World Records lists as the world's longest rabbit at 4 feet 3 inches (1.22 metres). Simon had been purchased by a celebrity whom Edwards did not identify.
United spokesman Charles Hobart said the airline is reviewing its handling of the animal. The animal was alive and showed no signs of distress upon landing, but died at a company-run pet holding facility at the airport, Hobart said.
Hobart said that the rabbit was moving around in its crate and appeared healthy when taken off the plane. About a half-hour later, at the pet facility, it seemed to be sleeping. Shortly after that, a pet facility employee opened the cage and found that the rabbit was dead.
"We won't know the cause of death because we offered to perform a necropsy free of charge - that's standard procedure - but the customer didn't want us to perform a necropsy, and we understand," he said.
Hobart said the airline offered compensation to the breeder but would not disclose the amount.
United had the second-highest level of animal deaths and injuries of any US airline last year, or 2.11 per 10,000 animals transported, according to US Department of Transportation figures. Only Hawaiian Airlines was worse at 3.99, the result of three deaths among the 7,518 animals it transported.

About MORE THAN A FEELING:
From the award-winning author of TAKE ME HOME TONIGHT comes the final story in her red-hot Rock Star Romance series, about a loner rocker finding his perfect duet.
When Cooper Hood left Snowberry, Montana ten years ago, he swore he'd never go back to the town that painted him with the same brush as his addict mother. But right in the middle of his band's national tour he gets a call to come home: his mom's got a whopper of a secret to reveal.
Daisy Charbonneau's in trouble. The talent she hired for her resort's annual Huckleberry Festival just bailed on her, and she's desperate to find a replacement act. Luck turns her way when she discovers her high school crush is back in town—and he happens to be a rock star.
As they work together, a crush deepens into so much more, but who falls in love in two weeks?
Especially when Cooper's never coming back to town, and Daisy's never going to leave it.

Daisy's fingers trailed across his shoulders as she breezed past him. Her warm vanilla and honey scent swirled in her wake, and he felt like that boy all over again who'd lived in a state of hyperawareness around her. The boy who'd noticed the way her dark hair pooled onto the desk as she'd hunch forward to write, her fingers curled around a pencil. The way the tendons in her neck strained when she'd hit and held a high note. Her burst of laughter in the music room had made him stop whatever he'd been doing just to witness her joy.
He'd hoarded all those images, those sacred moments, to pull out and comfort him as he lay alone in the dark woods, waiting for his home to be safe enough to go back inside.
She would never know it, but she'd been his saving grace.
Taking her seat across from him, she set two little pots on the table. Her vivid blue eyes sparkled in the candlelight. "Try this." She held a spoon out to him.
Letting her feed him was just too damn intimate, so he took it from her and fed himself. Creamy dark chocolate filled his senses. "Mousse?" Although it was denser, the chocolate more velvety. Richer. "It's good."
"It's a Pot de Crème." She scooped another mound for herself. Turning the spoon upside down, she brought it to her mouth, closing her eyes when her tongue touched the chocolate. She moaned, and her tongue swept across her bottom lip.
Desire surged through him, and he couldn't help wondering if she'd look like that in bed. If she'd go all slack and dreamy-eyed when he sucked a nipple into his mouth.
His blood rose at the image of Daisy naked beneath him, back arching, her hands digging into his hair, holding him to her as if she never wanted him to go away.
She opened her eyes and licked the damn spoon. "I had my mom make it just for you." The silky fabric of her shirt draped over her breasts, accentuating their round fullness. Desire pulsed through him.
Jesus, would you stop already?
"Let's try this one." She slid the edge of her fork into the cake, a cream-covered strawberry sliding out. "It's my favorite." The Montana sapphire studs glittered in her ears, and her lush mouth curved into a smile. His dick went hard.
He accepted the fork, but even when the cake and cream hit his tongue he couldn't taste a thing. Because the only thing in his mind, heart, and body was the primal, urgent need to taste her.
All that teenage longing came roaring back. He wanted her more than ever. And not because she was beautiful and had a body his hands were dying to explore, but because every single cell in his body reacted to her. Wanted her. Yearned for her.
And this was why he'd never come back to Snowberry. He didn't want to yearn for the things he couldn't have. Didn't want to wait for his mother to give him a crumb of her attention. Didn't want to be around these people who'd only ever looked at him with disgust.
"What do you think? Delicious?" Daisy's voice yanked him out of the negativity.
And he was damn glad. Because his past didn't matter anymore. He was a man now. He'd made his way in the world. And he had a chance to be that man around Daisy. His gaze on her mouth, he said, "Hell, yes."
And don't miss the first three standalone titles in The Rock Star Romance Series!

BERLIN — September 5, 2014 — NETGEAR®, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR) (www.netgear.com), a global networking company that delivers innovative products to consumers, businesses and service providers, today announced the world's first "unlocked" 4G LTE mobile hotspot with simultaneous dual-band WiFi coverage for greater range and performance. You can see the NETGEAR AirCard® 785 4G LTE mobile hotspot (AC785-100EUS) ( www.netgear.com/AC785) along with other NETGEAR solutions for the Connected Home at the IFA trade show for consumer electronics in Berlin, running September 5 through September 10. NETGEAR will be located in Hall 17, Booth 106 of the Messe Berlin exhibition center.
The AirCard 785 mobile hotspot with 4G LTE is ideal for parents, students, travelers, renters, telecommuters, small business entrepreneurs, temporary work sites, and seasonal and mobile homes where access to fixed broadband infrastructure may be limited. With the AirCard 785, up to 15 laptops, tablets, smartphones, digital cameras, gaming consoles, or other WiFi-enabled devices can easily and securely connect on-the-go to the built-in 802.11b/g/n wireless access point and share a single mobile broadband connection.
The AirCard 785 can even act as your primary Internet source at home, although you'll want to dock it in the optional new 4G LTE Boosting Cradle with Ethernet (DC113A) (www.netgear.com/DC113A) to be able to support devices that aren't WiFi-enabled. You can extend the functionality of the AirCard 785 hotspot even further by connecting it via the cradle to a high performance WiFi router. When docked in the cradle, your AirCard 785 can serve as a 4G LTE modem that acts as an alternate Internet connection for a high performance WiFi router during peak usage hours, or as a failover connection for emergencies.
An unlocked device such as the NETGEAR AirCard 785 mobile hotspot is not automatically tied to a service plan from a particular wireless service provider. With the AirCard 785, you're free to choose almost any service provider throughout Europe and parts of Asia and to change providers at will, without committing to a long-term service contract, although the device will support monthly service plans if you choose that option. (See NETGEAR website for a complete list of service providers supported.) You can simply buy the data plan that best fits your lifestyle, plug in your SIM card, and begin using your AirCard 785, in multiple languages. The convenient data usage monitoring feature means you see your data usage at a glance so you can more effectively manage your budget and pay for data only when you need it. The smart, powerful features of the AirCard 785 leverage simultaneous dual-band WiFi for greater range (2.4GHz) and performance (5GHz), while minimizing interference from nearby devices.
"We want you to have a variety of options for enjoying the best networking experience possible, regardless of which wireless service provider you use. As a result, we're introducing the European retail market to a new, unlocked NETGEAR AirCard mobile hotspot with simultaneous dual-band WiFi to support an improved streaming experience and greater range," said David Henry, vice president of product management and engineering for the NETGEAR Retail Business Unit.
The clean design of the AirCard 785 means that at a glance, you'll know everything important about your device and its connection. The 4.5 cm (1.77 inch) color LCD screen of the AirCard 785 displays real-time information for monitoring the connected WiFi devices, battery life, network name, data usage, and more, making this compact lightweight hotspot simple to navigate and easy to set up in minutes. There's no software to install and most settings are pre-configured for Europe's most common telecommunications networks.

Stream Belle And Sebastian's 'How To Solve Our Human Problems (Part 2)' EP
Friday 19th January, 2018 9:31AM
Glaswegian alt-poppers Belle & Sebastian have shared their five-song collection How To Solve Our Human Problems (Part 2), the middle instalment in a trio of EP releases. We first got a taste of the new EP via their perky recent single 'The Same Star', with the rest of the tunes capturing the band in a bright and upbeat mode. The fast-paced release schedule of the How To Solve Our Human Problems trilogy (final instalment out next month) recalls the group's earlier trifecta of EPs all the way back in 1997. Check out the new tunes below...
The final instalment of 'How To Solve Our Human Problems' is out Friday 16th February via Matador Records.

Nothing says "I forgot about Valentine's Day" or "I don't care" like a box of Whitman's chocolates, a stuffed animal, and a Hallmark card bought from the closest drug store. If you have indeed left things to the last minute, resist the urge to pick out your Valentine's Day gift at CVS or Walgreens. You'll thank me later. Instead, look over this list of gift ideas that you could give your loved one this February 14th. They don't take much time to purchase or plan, but still make it look like you actually gave it at least some forethought.
If your loved one doesn't yet have a portable music player, or is in need of an upgrade, this is a perfect gift. Instead of going for the now somewhat clichéd engraved iPod, I recommend looking to Apple's rival, Microsoft, and their Zune player. While the Zune initially failed to impress the masses as the Apple iPod has, it's grown up and matured and become a very quality device as Microsoft has paid more attention to fine-tuning things and making it a better experience. The Zune Marketplace, Microsoft's equivalent of iTunes, is pretty cool. If you really want to go all out, pair your new Zune purchase with 12-month Zune Pass. This will allow the recipient to have access to pretty much all the music the Zune Marketplace offers on rental basis. While you don't get to keep all of the music, you do get 10 downloads per month included with the Zune pass, and these are yours to keep. The Zune will run you anywhere from $120 to $300+, depending on the model and storage options you choose. The 12-month Zune Pass will run you $150. Customize your purchase and choose your recipient's favorite color, or pick out a nice cover or case to go along with it, and if you have time install the Zune software on their computer and start downloading all the sappy love songs you want to pre-load for their immediate listening pleasure.
A subscription to Netflix will allow you to watch an unlimited number of movies and television shows on your TV using a Netflix-enabled device (such as Google TV, Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360, Playstation 3, Roku, Apple TV, etc.). You can also watch them on any computer, your phone (with a Netflix app), and other mobile internet devices. If you pay a little extra, you can also get the standard Netflix by mail service and get DVDs and Blu-Ray discs mailed to your home. You can purchase a Netflix subscription online for a minimum of 3 months or more, and have the option of e-mailing your gift subscription or printing out a certificate. I'd recommend printing out the certificate and including it in a nice card. It starts at about $8.99 per month. If your recipient does not have a Netflix enabled device, pairing the Netflix subscription with one would be even nicer. Your cheapest option would be a Roku device, which starts at just $59. Best Buy has you covered.
Scoring dinner reservations at that ultra cool restaurant you've always wanted to try, but haven't gotten around to checking out might be a bit tricky on Valentine's Day. Restaurants are notoriously packed on February 14th, and even take-out can be a painful ordeal. Instead of promising to take your love out for a nice meal at another less busy time, point your web browser to www.gourmetstation.com. Had you thought about Valentine's Day in advance you could have ordered an awesome meal and prepared it on the actual holiday, but you did not so your option at this point is to purchase one for the future. You could select the meal yourself, but why not just purchase a certificate and let your partner decide what they'd like to order. They'll have fun visiting the website and selecting a delectable meal.
I actually got the classic beef wellington Christmas dinner from Gourmet Station a couple years ago and was extremely impressed. The beef wellington was to die for, and the tomato bisque soup was heavenly. The dessert put the meal over the top. They really make amazing food, and all you have to do is set the table and pop the food in the oven to warm it up. You could opt to order a meal from a similar service, but because I've tried Gourmet Station in the past, I highly recommend them.
Baseball season is just around the corner and Spring Training is about to kick off. Delight the sports fan in your life with tickets to opening day. To acquire the tickets, just head out to your team's local team shop, usually at a mall or near the ballpark. They'll print them out for you, and all you have to do is pick up a V-Day card to put them in. If you want to give your gift a little extra punch, you could purchase a new t-shirt, hat, or jacket to pair with the tickets.
If your lover is the romantic type, you can pull off the chocolates and flowers. Please though, skip the drug store and at least go to the grocery store where you can likely find something a little higher quality than Whitman's. Make them swoon even more with a nice poem or a heart-felt message written in your carefully selected card. Later, hit up Redbox to pick out a romantic comedy and order in Chinese and you'll be set for the evening. Guys, if you're not yet married or engaged and want to pop the question, doing it in a romantic way could get you out of getting a gift that day entirely. You'll just have to promise to take her ring shopping.

Sachet cachet: who should untie the knot?


What does the Royal Wedding teach us about connection?
I am watching Bishop Michael Curry at the wedding of Prince Harry and Megan Markle on the television.
It is a master class of communication for the simple reason that he is clearly a man who knows how to "connect" with people.
The word 'connection' comes up time and time again in many therapies.
It is part of compassionate focussed therapy. Mindfulness focuses on the breath which "connects" us with the fact that we are "alive". The 12 Step programme from Alcoholics Anonymous is all about connection.
So why this emphasis on connection?
For someone with depression the experience of early relationships with the significant people on the "stage of their life" can be so damaging that the idea of close connections with others feels terrifying.
The fear is that history will repeat itself in all relationships.
People with depression disconnect themselves emotionally in their relationships.
They do however survive through wearing "masks". However, such survival comes at a price and they rarely experience the close connection with others they crave.
It would seem therefore that if we need to move towards good mental health we need to "reconnect".
In Cognitive Behavioral Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP) there is a technique called" situational analysis".
Although it may feel as if we live our lives seamlessly with one moment merging into the next, CBASP asks us to think about our lives as "slices of time".
Each situation we find ourselves in is an event with a beginning middle and end.
We interpret the situation we are in, we act, and then we look at the outcome we get. However, for people with depression, the outcome is often negative and it is one where they will disconnect themselves from the situation.
His behaviour echoed this thoughts. He avoided eye contact. At the end of the situation he left the scene.
He did not connect because of the stamp left by his early relationships together with the fear of what might happen if he did speak.
When the next argument came he decided to stay in the situation. He spoke directly to his partner about what he wanted, and listened to the response he was given.
It was uncomfortable but he made a "connection" with his partner. It was a connection he had long avoided. He noticed the thoughts and actions which connected him to the situation. The thoughts were simple self- instructions.
The thoughts like the steering wheel on the car, directed his actions. He monitored his body language, knowing that acting assertively would connect him with the situation.
We sometimes believe that the "real person" is what lies behind the "mask". The real person emerges in the network of relationships we find ourselves in.
Making connections is risky but the rewards of authentic communication are greater.

Google Maps can now guide you to drug disposal locations
Search terms like "drug drop off near me" will also pinpoint your nearest kiosk.
Saqib Shah|@eightiethmnt|February 21, 2019 12:00 PM
Drug disposal programs have been cited as an effective tool in the fight against opioid abuse by medical studies and the White House. Now Google is lending a hand by pinpointing 3,500 of these drop-off sites on Google Maps and via Search in partnership with the DEA, HHS, CVS, Walgreens and state governments. Search terms like "drug drop off near me" or "medication disposal near me" will display the permanent disposal locations at pharmacies, hospitals or government buildings.
Last year, Walgreens and CVS Health added hundreds more prescription take-back kiosks to their drugstores around the country. And earlier this year, the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy recommended expanding drug disposal sites. Google claims it will continue to add additional locations and statewide data to Google Maps.
The update builds upon the web-based locator it unveiled last year as part of the DEA's National Prescription Drug Take Back Day. Google claims that with the help of the tool, the DEA and its local partners collected a record 1.85 million pounds of unused prescription drugs in 2018.
"Every day, over 130 people in this country die from an opioid overdose...and the majority of prescription drug abuse (53 percent) starts with drugs obtained from family and friends," Dane Glasglow, VP of product, Google Maps, said in a blog post. "That's why Google wants to help people get rid of their leftover pills that are sitting in people's medicine cabinets."
