On her blog, she writes: Our beloved golden retriever died this morning, peacefully, after spending a wonderful week by our side on Martha’s Vineyard, at the beach, where she ran into the ocean, and in the woods, where she took a long walk with me. She was 14 years old, my zen teacher, and my most constant meditation partner. We loved her so much. I know how traumatic losing a pet can be. I’m bracing for it myself, as one or both of our two Retriever-Chow mutts could go in the next two years. I found the Pet Loss Support Page online, which includes “Ten Tips on Coping with Pet Loss” from Moira Anderson Allen, M.Ed. I’ve excerpted the first five below. Anyone who considers a pet ...

Chow is the team physician for the Ottawa Senators National League hockey team.

(“Yan”) Chow. It is a blog about dealing with everything youths today have to deal with — from college and study woes, to relationship issues, family crises, friendship drama and everything in-between. I believe teens and young adults often have the greatest need for mental health and psychology information and resources, but also face the greatest challenge in actually accessing such resources (for numerous reasons). Hopefully blogs such as this one help de-mystify the psychology and mental health of youth. Despite campaigns by both parents to become either an architect or lawyer, Yan is currently a final year BSc Psychology student at the University of Warwick in England. She aspires to write for ...

He writes “Moods are processes — not events. They have a coming and a going.” Like mindfulness specialist Elisha Goldstein, he reminds us of our mood’s impermanence… That they don’t have stick if we can learn how to cook them and our thoughts with Teflon (preferably the non-cancer-causing kind). Even though I know, on some level, that moods are temporary and transient, it was helpful to remind myself of three proactive ways I can, much like my adorable golden-chow mutts, take their leashes into my hands, grab the poop bag, and regain control. Larry writes: Depending on where you are with the mood the...

Charlie, who’s not exactly anymore on the gluten-free casein-free diet (without dire results), used to make a beeline for cupcakes. Years of being told “no, you can’t have that” led to him being something like obsessed with bakery display cases and to running a finger through technicolor birthday cake frosting whenever we looked the other way. Now that we’ve started saying “sure, you can get whatever you want,” he seems to have become more picky in his food choices and cupcakes have been left in the dust for brownies. See what a little choice can do. Share This...

Charlie had speech therapy, went for a 1 hour 45 minute swim in the pool, had his beloved brown noodles (I think he has had noodles on his mind since seeing this movie Tuesday), and took himself to bed just after 9.30pm. And after he had arrayed his shoes, his fleece gloves, my flip flops (given to him but they fit me), and that old beat up green backpack just so. And, the blue fleece items on the blue rocker. It was a good night.

Kontera has been a good online income generator for my blogs. I signed up as a publisher last December 2007 and have accumulated $59 earnings as of today. I started with only $0.2 average earning per day; not a good income provider you say. I sticked with it, however, because I see it as a potential income generator for my blogs. I signed up my three other blogs (my personal blog, my health blog and my medical and nursing student’s guide blog). My income substantially increased since then, reaching up to $2/day (not on a daily basis). My income now ranges from $0.5 to $2.00 per day. It&...

Hong Kong Lydia Shum has been on the front to prevent and educate about breast cancer… The actor was also known as Fei-Fei or Fatty. She was 60 years old. Shum was born to a well-of large family in Shanghai , China and she was fifth among the family’s eight children. In 1960 she made her debut as a child actor. She was survived by a daughter, Joyce Cheng Yan-Yee from her failed marriage to an actor and singer, Adam Cheng Siu Chow. They were married in 1985 after living together for 11 years. She wore a Chinese cheongsam at her wedding due to her weight and years later, she said she regretted not wearing a we...

I asked Charlie if he’d like to see a movie and he said “yes”—-and when I brought up the subject back at home, he said “yes” and then “no” and then “yes.” “How about Alvin and the Chipmunks?” I asked. “Yes,” said Charlie. And then, “No.” By this time, it was getting too late to see the computer animated version of Dave Seville and three squeaky-voiced creatures, so I asked Charlie about dinner. “Dinner, yes,” said Charlie. As he has been saying, with a pleased smile, “Chinese...

Paradoxically, one of its most important cultural contributions is called "The New York System". Present-day proponents of the New York System have been able to find no actual historical connection to New York. One of the most well-known denominations of the New York System is the Olneyville New York System, a two-diner chain. As their website demonstrates, they make the New York System open-source in order to sell its proprietary New York System spicy sauce in their diners and at Shaw's supermarkets around Rhode Island. Their description of how to implement the New York System is detailed and informative. In brief, the New York System involves wieners cut from chains of links (hence they have their ends chopped off and do not look like ... hemodynamics blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=651755 Sun, 15 Apr 2007 03:52:00 +0100 651755
