It's good to be back on our little island. Everything is so green and lush - our gradens are calling out to me. First I need to get better. I have been stuck in bed for the past two days; yesterday I had to drag myself over to CR to deposit $$ for my brother so that we could print out more press kits and send our doc to Venezuala, Paris, Greece, USA and funny enough - Canada! Isn't it funny that in this stage of the game we need to have an American representing our film in order for a Canadian company to take notice?? GO FIGURE.
So I am in bed, coughing, achy and downing some herbal Chinese medicine Jordan picked up for me. Seems to be working. I don't know how I can avoid passing my germs onto Jonas. He has had a few coughs and I have plunged his nose with a syringe a few times, but he seems fine. It's hard to tell with a little 9 week old baby. He seems to be sleeping more and nursing more since I have been sick. Maybe he is fighting it.
Ok, so some mum poo talk. For about 10 days Jonas had really green poop. Usually he had those perfect yellow seedy poops that nursed babies produce. About two weeks ago they started turning green and then really green. I had thought for a split second it was those green smoothies I have been drinking everyday - no not the processed 'greens' you buy at the health food store, but the real ones with pure green vegies pureed in the blender (I also eat the other 'greens' as well, just not as often - they are ridiculously expensive and I am not sure if they are actually processed, but they are manufactured, aren't they?) Anyway, I knew it wasn't my intake of greens, come on now! I knew it had something to do with foremilk and lactase and too much of it. I looked around the net and finally got the information I was looking for on the La Leche League website. While researching - something I prefer to do before running to my doctor for answers - I realised that I was producing too much milk which had probably been caused by my breastfeeding practice. It's funny, because I thought about how breastfeeding is a natural thing and yet I had to get info about it on the net and then I thought that probably back in the day there was some wise woman elder/midwife who had had info passed down from ancestors who could probably answer any and all questions I needed answers for.
My usual feeding practice was to feed for two hours on one breast, then switch and feed for two hours on the second. I had ample milk and I knew this because Jonas would sometimes choke and sputter abit at the beginning and he would also be done his feed in about 3-5 minutes. He would also spit up alot and sometimes be fussy in the mornings with serious gas!!! And then the green poops came and didn't go away... SOOoooOO I changed my feedings to 6 hours one side, 6 hours the other side. This makes it so that Jonas gets his foremilk, but also ensures that he gets the fatty rich hinde milk. If baby gets too much of the initial foremilk and not enough hinde milk they often become gassy, fussy and produce green poo. After a week of this feeding pattern, Jonas doesn't spit up nearly as often, less gassy/farty, feeds for a casual and less intense 20 minutes and yes, his poo is now yellow. Yay Mummyhood!

Wow it sounds like you've been busy traveling around. It's so great that Jonas is a good traveler already. Lily hated care seats when she was an infant and it made traveling a really horrible experience.
I can't believe how much you and your mom look alike - you could be twins!!
Way to figure out the feeding so you could help Jonas with his gas and green poo. That's what it's all about - listening to your baby and working with him to give him the best possible everything!! You are doing a fantastic job!
Now go rest and get better soon!
Who knew? You can tell a lot from poo! I can't wait to be a poo sleuth too :)
hmmmm... didn't I tell you that stuff when you were here visiting? Well, I am glad it worked.

I wish not concur on it. I over warm-hearted post. Particularly the appellation attracted me to study the intact story.
Nice post and this post helped me alot in my college assignement. Thanks you for your information.
Because of various cultural, social, and religious reasons, a video game which is considered absolutely problem-free in one country may be looked upon as unacceptable in another. This is a good reason to thin that video game adaptation - unlike mere translation- is necessary for computer and consoles games.
That said, I've often been wondering: when does localization cross the line of censorship? And is that something one should accept?
Let's take a recent example, I'll use the newest installment in the Yakuza series. Yakuza 3 - an imported Japanese PlayStation game - was recently released in the US. Almost immediately, it came under fire for the huge cuts it suffered at the hands of Western localizers. Apparently, a significant chunk of the cut scenes, minigames, and events were removed from the US release, deemed "inappropriate" for American audiences.
Now the question is: do all of these elements actually required to be changed? Isn't that just based on a stereotype that American gamers tend to be more religious and concerned about nudity and violence? I assume that someone purchasing the third installment in a game series would normally have a pretty good idea as to what kind of content they were getting into, especially with a series such as Yakuza, which is relatively well-known. The games even receive ratings similar to films, giving the consumer an even better idea of what the game in question contains.
Most of gamers are reasonable adults who just want to enjoy the game as it is, instead of playing an edited, censored version of it. So please, developers, think of gamers first when you are localizing your games.
Game translation is not censorship and should be adapted to players in a certain territory.

Most people in the UK have experienced queuing up to buy an electric fan in the heat of the summer only to find that when
the heat and humidity get especially fierce, the fans dont cut it.
If the current passes through the head then the person may lose consciousness.
The materials from which the components are made, such as brass,
are important factors in fan desirability.
