Jenna Ushkowitz won a producing Tony for ONTI. And Alex should have been nominated. They were a highlight in a very great cast.

The Annual Grammy Awards - General Discussion

My teenage daughter, while watching that performance, decided "Harry Styles needs a nap". That was underwhelming and overspangled. -
The Annual Grammy Awards - General Discussion

Were the kids related to any of the performers or the Gordys? I missed it but I realize the odds are high. -
Sandro's showstopper reminded me of Uncle Julio's signature dessert dessert piñata I actually think the "S'more" was a really good technical challenge but it needed to be framed differently, or possibly for a different theme. I wonder if they can't repeat challenges from the BBC years. Is there a possibility of copyright infringement or the UK equivalent?

Carlin and Evan: But Mostly Carlin!
Bewitched replied to PrincessPurrsALot's topic in Bringing Up Bates
Not always, but seems like a good average. As a mom of a child with epilepsy, I hope no one would fake this. And Carlin should have rescue medication if a seizure lasts more than 5 minutes (some MDs will say more than 2). My daughter's is administered between the cheek and gum. There is also a rectal option (not great for YouTube I would imagine). As an ICU RN, my trick for determining real seizure vs fake - pretend you are poking the patient in the eye. If they blink, probably not having a seizure. Or you can lift their hand over the face and drop it. If they're faking, they will make sure they miss their face. Seems mean, but it's a quick way to know if you need to go get medicine to break the seizure. This is very rarely a thing, but when its someone who is refusing discharge or wants "something to take the edge off" and we refuse and then all of a sudden they are shaking violently (and weirdly), its worth a test. (Inmates have a lot of "seizures" when they hear its time to go back to jail.) I will say we almost always err on the side of caution and treat and then order the EEG to confirm our suspicion. -
My very unscientific theory is that Djoker has been able to win a lot of Australians because Roger and Rafa were still finishing rehab from pushing themselves through "their" tournaments and weren't in match shape yet. (And Murray of course had major injuries that took him out for long periods of time). Djoker is many things, but one of them is amazingly fit and that would help at the beginning of the season when many people are still getting ready.

Just an FYI, if Carlin is having an extended EEG she is either doing it in the hospital or at home. Either way, she will be hooked up to scalp leads but she needs to spend the majority of the time in front of a camera (she'll love that!). The neurologists like to compare the EEG tracings to motor behavior captured on camera. It also helps to have a pulse monitor on as there is often an elevated heart rate during the seizure. A lot of good data also comes during sleep. However, no shower for the duration and she won't be able to fix her hair. Braids and button up shirts are your friends. When my daughter had a home EEG, they set up a camera in her room to see her bed and one in our living room so she could come out and watch TV and hang out with the family. The rest of us were all very picky about where we sat that weekend so we wouldn't be on camera!

Per state code, persons with epilepsy cannot drive for a year in Tennessee. After seizures are controlled, they may apply for a license after 6 months. However, physicians aren't required to report to the DMV. My child had her first seizure at age 16 about 2 months after getting her license. She has never driven since, even though she is controlled. Too scared of hurting herself or someone else.

Keep waiting. They just traded to the Saints at 16.

S20.E11: Top 24 at Disney's Aulani Resort in Hawaii (2)

Leah Marlene will never win this competition but she's a damn good musician. -
I'm a Carolina grad, my husband went to Duke. He has already started apologizing for his future behavior on Saturday night! LOL We won the title my freshman year. There were bonfires on Franklin Street. I found my roommate climbing up a light pole completely wasted. It was insane.

This is one of my arguments against the DH. If the pitcher has to hit, then his training alters just enough that it might save his shoulder and elbow from overuse. He has to run a little more so his stamina might be better. He has to be more than just an arm. But I am an old and grew up watching Maddox and Glavine who could actually hit. And I've very much enjoyed watching Scherzer at the plate in DC. Mad Max indeed.

I want to hear him sing 'Old Man River' which will probably never happen on AI, but I can hope.
