What Baby Can Do:
She can now not only wave hi, but also play peekaboo, answer "How big is Baby V?" with the "so big" gesture, and stick out her tongue if you do it first. All very marketable skills. She now has 6 teeth. Daddy is trying to teach her not to crawl off high surfaces like the bed. Right now she is happy to try and propel herself off of them at full force.
Ignoring useless information aids memory: study - Yahoo! News
LONDON (Reuters) - Filtering out useless information can help people increase their capacity to remember what is really important, researchers said on Wednesday.
Scientists at the University of Oregon in the United States have demonstrated that awareness, or visual working memory, does not depend on extra storage space in the brain but on an ability to ignore what is irrelevant.

Townhall.com :: Columns :: Why Professor Johnny can't spell by Mike S. Adams: "Some people reading the above diatribe will ask why a college would allow a professor to use such harsh language while addressing a student. But I disagree with any implication that Professor Daly had no right to say what he said so poorly. In fact, I would fight to the death to protect his right to very bad free speech. That is not because I am a principled person. I just enjoy watching liberals make asses out of themselves. "
Sed Contra: "Excuse me for getting my back up about this, but who the **** are these people to decide for people living with SSA that we don't need the fullness of the Gospel or that we shouldn't be called to Holiness or that it is prudent to decide for us that we can't, or won't, handle it - or that, somehow, even if we don't want to handle it that we should not be offered the challenge anyway?!"
Oh, Good. "A new toy for Chanukah is being billed as the 'Jewish counterpart to Santa Claus.' The stuffed animal 'Macca Bee' wears a Star of David and a yarmulke, sings the Chanukah prayers and eight Chanukah songs -- two in English, two in Yiddish and six in Hebrew."

Generation Y: They've arrived at work with a new attitude: "Angie Ping, 23, of Alvin, Texas, lives in flip-flops but isn't allowed to wear them to the office. 'Some companies' policies relating to appropriate office attire seem completely outdated to me,' says Ping, at International Facility Management Association. 'The new trend for work attire this season is menswear-inspired capri pants, which look as dressy as pants when paired with heels, but capri pants are not allowed at my organization.'"
1980s: You're the decade of conservative
resurgence. You've gone back to old the morals
after the crazy upheavels of the '60s and '70s,
older and wiser. You're more religious and big
on putting religion into play in the
government. However, there are still some crazy
fashion and pop culture movements out there you
won't completely stomp out.

Baby V's new cousin -
Yesterday at around 5 pm Baby V got a new cousin named Samuel who weighs 9 pounds. Mom got through labor in 10 hours without needing a c-section, so everyone is very happy. The baby is reportedly quite handsome, though the report comes from his proud grandfather who is a bit biased. Grandpa had 3 girls and is very happy that all 3 grandchildren (so far) are boys.
Carter condemns abortion culture -- The Washington Times: "By Ralph Z. Hallow
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
Published November 4, 2005
Former President Jimmy Carter yesterday condemned all abortions and chastised his party for its intolerance of candidates and nominees who oppose abortion.
'I never have felt that any abortion should be committed -- I think each abortion is the result of a series of errors,' he told reporters over breakfast at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, while across town Senate Democrats deliberated whether to filibuster the nomination of Judge Samuel A. Alito Jr. because he may share President Bush and Mr. Carter's abhorrence of abortion.
'These things impact other issues on which [Mr. Bush] and I basically agree,' the Georgia Democrat said. 'I've never been convinced, if you let me inject my Christianity into it, that Jesus Christ would approve abortion.'
Mr. Carter said his party's congressional leadership only hurts Democrats by making a rigid pro-abortion rights stand the criterion for assessing judicial nominees.
'I have always thought it was not in the mainstream of the American public to be extremely liberal on many issues,' Mr. Carter said. 'I think our party's leaders -- some of them -- are overemphasizing the abortion issue.'
While Mr. Carter has previously expressed ambivalence about abortion, his statements yesterday were 'astonishing,' said Robert Knight, director of the Culture and Family Institute at Concerned Women for America.
'He has long professed to be an evangelical Christian and yet he had embraced virtually all the liberal political agenda,' said Mr. Knight. 'Maybe with Jimmy Carter saying things he never uttered before, more liberals will rethink their worship of abortion as the high holy sacrament of liberalism."

Townhall.com :: Columns :: Fishing license indictment by Thomas Sowell: " In the case of Lewis Libby, the case against him consists essentially of the fact that he remembers various conversations with reporters differently from the way those reporters remember those conversations.
... However, prosecutors nailed Martha Stewart, so they may be able to nail Lewis Libby. In the meantime, it is fascinating to see people who were downplaying an organized campaign of perjury and subordination of perjury by Bill Clinton a few years ago, now touting the indictment of Lewis Libby as proof that the whole Bush administration is corrupt.
There is no talk today about 'move on,' with or without the dot com. There is no one saying 'get over it.' More important, there is no orchestrated campaign of character assassination in the media against special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, the way there was against special prosecutor Kenneth Starr during his investigation of Bill Clinton's perjury.
After any special prosecutor has spent millions of tax dollars and is caught in the media spotlight, the temptation is to find something, anything, rather than say it has not been worth the expense or the bother. A regular prosecutor has many other cases to turn to if one particular case does not look worth investing more time and money in, when other cases are demanding attention.
A special prosecutor has only that one case and so has no incentive to weigh alternatives like a regular prosecutor."
