If you have an older TV without a digital tuner built in, it will go static by Feb 2009. If you go to dtv2009.gov, you can sign up for up to two $40 coupons & use it to buy digital TV converter(s). The converters will cost between $50-70 each.
One more thing: buy the converters as soon as you get the coupon(s). They expires in 90 days.
The following are photos of Kaitlyn taken a little over a month ago, but never posted up. I don’t remember if she was a little sick or just cold. So we put a hoodie on her and tried to keep her warm while she was eating.
Well, “everyone” who bought a diamond jewelry in the past 14 years, that is.
If you bought it here in the U.S. but didn’t buy it from De Beers, you may be qualified for a cash refund (and still keep your diamond) resulted from a class action lawsuit settlement.
Here’s an excerpt from the Arizona Republic:
Customers who bought a De Beers gem between Jan. 1, 1994, and March 31, 2006, have until May 19 to submit a claim to the settlement’s administrator to get money back.
How much anyone receives in the settlement will depend on the value of diamonds purchased and the number of claims filed.
Under the formula, a consumer who bought a diamond worth $2,000, for example, could get as much as $640.
The class action was born from several lawsuits claiming that De Beers broke antitrust and consumer-protection laws by monopolizing diamond supplies, controlling diamond prices and disseminating false advertising.”
To sum it up, you should file a claim if you meet ALL the requirements below:
Here is the same story that appeared on MSN Money.
Guess what? Kaitlyn had her first bit of an orange a couple of weeks ago & we have it on video! After you see the look on her face at the beginning of the video, you will probably be convinced that she didn’t like oranges, until you see her pulling my hand for more. Again & again!
One day last week, it took Kaitlyn 2 hours to finally take her afternoon nap. I put her in her crib, hoping that she would eventually get tired and fall asleep. Nope.. she was definitely not tired. So I laid down on my bed, watching some tv while she was playing with her stuffed animals in her crib. I eventually fell asleep for a couple of minutes when all of a sudden I hear a sound of something falling down on the floor. I turned to look and Kaitlyn had climbed out of her crib and was standing on my night-table reaching for stuff & dropped some things on the floor as she was doing it. I was scared half to death because she had never done that before! I was thanking God that she didn’t fall onto the floor and hurt herself.
Anyway, here are a few pictures that we took of her as a re-enactment of what happened. Please excuse the mess that I have on my night-table. I will eventually clean that up. haha. =D
So we discovered that our child is pretty adventurous and likes to take risks, which is why she is already walking pretty well at 11 months. My how fast she has grown.
By the way, did you notice something funny about the first picture? Yup, she flipped the bird! =D
We love to take pix of Kaitlyn when she sleeps in a weird position or if she falls asleep in a weird place.
So Jen & co came to NY to visit us last week on New Years and stayed for a few days at mom & dad’s. They stayed with us for one night and La was addicted to our Wii. Talon had a blast running around, playing with Kaitlyn’s toys, and pushing Kaitlyn down. Nevertheless Kaitlyn was very amused by him and always wanted to give him kisses. Here are some pictures we took of the cousins in their Santa outfits:
