"When we last saw master bladesmith Tony Swatton, he made a fully functional axe modeled after Gimli's from The Lord of the Rings. Most recently, he created a battle-ready version of the bat'leth, a sword from Star Trek. Qapla'! His tempered steel sword is ready to sever Jem'Hadar heads. At the link, you can watch a video of Mr. Swatton making the sword. Be sure to watch until the end, which shows his assistants attacking targets with the bat'leth."

Tiny bit of formula promotes breast-feeding - SFGate - http://www.sfgate.com/health...
Kelli H., Spidra Webster, Lisa | #TeamMonique and 7 other people liked this
"Giving a little bit of formula - the equivalent of a single bottle over several days - to a newborn who's losing too much weight after birth might actually increase the likelihood that the baby will be breast-feeding three months later, according to a small Bay Area study. In a climate of aggressive public health policy trying to cut down on formula use and encourage new moms to give infants only breast milk, the study results are likely to be controversial, and they may seem counterintuitive, the authors said. But for a select group of new mothers who are eager to breast-feed, small doses of formula, given for a short and carefully monitored time, may alleviate some of the stress associated with breast-feeding and, in turn, give them confidence to stick with it, said Dr. Valerie Flaherman, lead author of the study, published Monday in the journal Pediatrics. "This study does not mean that all babies should get formula or that formula is better than breast-feeding. It's my strong...

"But in the United States, while roughly three-quarters of mothers attempt to breast-feed, only 30 percent of them are breast-feeding exclusively at three months, and less than a quarter are breast-feeding at all by the time the baby is a year old. The reasons women stop breast-feeding are varied and complicated and not always well understood. One possibility that the study authors...

One of my friends did something like this, and it helped a lot (she was having production issues, so there literally wasn't enough to feed her son by itself for the first month.)
- Jennifer Dittrich
Breast feeding can be such a minefield. It was so hard with our first kid, and got easier with the others. But still, it can be really hard and all of them had some formula here and there. Trying to relax enough to realise that it's not the end of the world can be so difficult.
- WoH: Professor MOTHRA
It's really tricky, because the way to increase milk production is to continue feeding: the tactile stimulus from feeding is what stimulates prolactin and oxytocin production which leads to more milk. But I think the key is that mothers shouldn't be stigmatized due to their feeding choices, which I think a lot of breastfeeding advocates aren't partcularly sensitive of. Sure, there are a lot of benefits to breastfeeding, but a lot of those benefits can be realized with a limited course of breastfeeding.
- Victor Ganata
(My comments on breastfeeding advocates are, admittedly, limited to my experiences rounding in newborn nurseries during residency and my mom's anecdotes from working as a nurse on a mother-baby unit—she's not a big fan of the drive towards exclusive breastfeeding and she'd frequently tell me about all the mothers who were reduced to tears because they had problems with feeding their baby.)
- Victor Ganata
The more the baby suckles, the more milk is produced. That's the general rule. But if you have sore, cracked and bleeding nipples, are ill, or in the throes of painful mastitis then knowing you can have a break can mean the difference between carrying on and giving up all together. It's really hard to be kind to yourself when you feel like giving a bottle is failure, so I'm all for pragmatism and understanding.
- WoH: Professor MOTHRA
I agree with you Victor. Lots of my friends have had children here in the Bay Area and lost of them have had huge amount of pressure put on them to breastfeed only. Some pushed themselves too hard when signs of problems (cracking, mastitis, etc) showed and tried to power through, only making the problems worse. If they had done a little of both they may have been able to treat the...

Also so strange that the Northern White Rhino and the Sourthern White Rhino are not sub-categories of the White Rhino species but that the Northern White Rhino is a species of it's own separated genetically for over a million years. I have had the privilege of being up close and personal with the less at risk Southern White Rhino and they are just amazing and wonderful creatures. It makes me so sad whenever I hear about any poaching of any type of these creatures. :(

"The Solar Foundation, which has been releasing reports for a few years on the state of the solar industry in the U.S., has just launched a very cool interactive map that breaks the stats down state by state. This allows us to see that there are only 80 solar jobs in Alaska (not too surprising), and over 43,000 in California. Add all 50 states together, and solar employs 119,000 people in the country, a growth of 13.2% in 2012. Another interesting way to gain perspective is to compare these solar jobs to the number of jobs created by other sectors. Looked at it this way, the Solar Foundation (using stats from the Bureau of Labor Statistics) found that there were more solar energy workers in Texas than ranchers, that solar workers outnumber actors in California, and that across the whole 50 states, there are more solar workers than coal miners."

I'm pretty sure a mix of distributed small-scale solar and improved nuclear reactor designs are the future of energy.

From the post: "Summary: Hidden features, reduced discoverability, cognitive overhead from dual environments, and reduced power from a single-window UI and low information density. Too bad."

More: "One of the worst aspects of Windows 8 for power users is that the product's very name has become a misnomer. "Windows" no longer supports multiple windows on the screen."
- Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
More: "But the new look sacrifices usability on the altar of looking different than traditional GUIs. There's a reason GUI designers used to make objects look more detailed and actionable than they do in the Metro design. As an example, look at this settings menu. [first FF image above.

Caption: 'Live tiles for (clockwise from upper left): Urbanspoon, Los Angeles Times, Newegg, and Epicurious.'] Newegg is the only app that includes its full name in the tile.

I haven't used Windows 8 at all, but this review makes me feel like I'd really despise it.

I have nothing nice to say about Win8. My comments on it here and elsewhere are repetitive. Skip it.
- Anika
Thanks, Anika. I think I will!

I can't imagine a situation where I'll be using a Windows tablet, to be honest.
- Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
It's too bad. I wanted Windows 8 to succeed. It seems like it would make a decent tablet or phone UI, but the idea of having the same UI for both desktop and mobile usage seemed doomed from the start.
- Victor Ganata
I have been using Win8 on a new church computer and though it looks nice, it is annoyingly difficult to use on a regular non-tablet computer. Stupid annoying.

Cristo: "From 1994 to 1998, [Nielsen] was a Sun Microsystems Distinguished Engineer. [...] Dr. Nielsen ended up spending most of his time at Sun defining the emerging field of web usability. He was the usability lead for several design rounds of Sun's website and intranet (SunWeb), including the original SunWeb design in 1994."...

Victor, I agree. Friar, sorry to hear it's so annoying.
- Stephen Mack #TeamMomo
(Cristo deleted his comment, which was asking about what products Nielsen had built. I think people can be qualified to write about designs even if they don't build products themselves. This applies generally: Excellent movie critics might be terrible movie directors, for example -- and vice versa. Or a well-respected restaurant critic with useful opinions might be a terrible chef.)

I added a start menu, and I only use the desktop. Win8 now boots to the desktop.
- Mike Nencetti
How did you do that, Mike?
- Friar Ticket to Ride
I installed Pokki https://www.pokki.com/

There's a registry key to set to 0 to disable the former Metro interface and several sw to add an old style start menu.

Awww, thanks Sparky, that's sweet. I guess it wasn't me, unless I'm now in the running for Anti Pope.

initial thoughts upon the appearance of white smoke: only the first Francis? ummm, St. Francis of Assis was never ordained as priest, ok then, elections, Francis Underwood plotting at the window of his dining room :-), Francis Bacon paintings of popes. Why not Adrian VII ?

What was the fire alarm problem?

Z, a shorted heat detector. We tested about 80% of the FA devices until we found the culprit. Man, the ladies washroom is luxurious compared to the dudes'.

Ah, thanks! I was curious. Not about the ladies room though. They're always luxurious. :)
