These writers are all-stars! The Expositor's Bible Commentary—Revised is a valuable resource for all who teach the Scriptures.
—John Ortberg, Senior Pastor, Menlo Park Presbyterian Church
These commentaries offer an abundance of excellent scholarship from many of the most prominent and careful evangelical biblical scholars today, both older and younger.
—Craig S. Keener, Professor of New Testament, Asbury Theological Seminary
The Expositor's Bible Commentary has been a core resource for decades with good reason: it is concise, clear, and focused on giving the key points of a book's message. Now with this revised edition, one can continue to use this fine resource and know the discussion is up to date, utilizing all the strengths of the original.
—Darrell L. Bock, Research Professor of New Testament Studies, Dallas Theological Seminary
Every student, teacher, and pastor needs a foundational set of commentaries that covers the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. The Expositor's Bible Commentary (13 volumes) is that set. Written from an evangelical point of view and newly revised by leading evangelical scholars, the Expositor's Bible Commentary series provides students, teachers, and pastors with a comprehensive tool for studying and explaining the Scriptures. I have used the Expositor's Bible Commentary over the years and look forward to using this newly revised edition for many years to come.
—Mark Futato, Robert L. Maclellan Professor of Old Testament and Academic Dean, Reformed Theological Seminary, Orlando, FL
The revised edition of the Expositor's Bible Commentary offers students of the Scriptures quick and reliable access to the entire Bible in thirteen reader-friendly volumes. Written by the foremost evangelical scholars of our time, the commentaries on individual books seek to answer the questions that serious readers ask when they read the Bible. If there is one set of commentaries that all pastors and teachers should have, this is it.
—Daniel I. Block, Gunther H. Knoedler Professor of Old Testament, Wheaton College
The Expositor's Bible Commentary is a superb tool to help the Christian who wants to better understand God's Word. As a preacher, I turn to it again and again. From the Psalms to the Gospel of Matthew, some of the best commentaries are to be found in this series. I'm thankful for these scholars and for their work.
—Mark Dever, Senior Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, DC
As a seminary student two of my professors were writing (and wrote) two of the volumes in The Expositor's Bible Commentary, and I have used this commentary my entire career. I am delighted at the updates and revisions and know that this series continues to set the standard for solid, evangelical, expository explanations of God's Word—every pastor needs this series on the shelf.
—Scot McKnight, Professor of New Testament, Northern Seminary
The Expositor's Bible Commentary—Revised is one of my favorite 'go-to' Bible study and sermon prep resources. It's 'accessible scholarship.' When I know a passage well it always takes me deeper. When I don't know a text so well, I can count on it to give me a clear overview and a great foundation. That's why it's always one of the key resources I recommend every Bible teacher and church planter add to his library. With its combination of proven and updated scholarship it will serve you and those you teach well.
—Larry Osborne, Pastor, North Coast Church, Vista, CA
The greatest need for the church is excellent commentaries that can be used by pastors and Bible teachers. The Expositors Bible series admirably filled this need for decades, and now it is even better and a critical contribution for enabling the church to be Bible-centered and more biblically literate. I recommend this highly for every Christian.
—Grant Osborne, Professor of New Testament, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School
When the Expositor's Bible Commentary first appeared in the 1970s and 1980s, there were far fewer evangelical commentary series available than there are today, and many of the contributions to that first edition took their place among the best available. Some, inevitably, were weaker than others, but these have almost all now been replaced and the entire series strengthened and updated. For concise commentary, the EBC once again takes its place as among the best volumes available.
—Craig L. Blomberg, Distinguished Professor of New Testament, Denver Seminary

Research Highlights
September 2005
Novel sensor for technetium applicable to Hanford and other DOE sites
Figure 1. Operation of the TcO4-sensor. The symbols are L, donor atom on chelating ligand; TcL, reduced-Tc species after complexation; FL, fluorescence emission. The monooxo-ligand complex of Tc is one of the possible complexes that may result from chelation. Full Image

Scientists at the University of Cincinnati and PNNL are developing an innovative, fluorescence-based sensor for technetium (Tc) for monitoring the vadose zone and groundwater at the Hanford Site and elsewhere. Funded by DOE's Environmental Management Science Program (EMSP), this research project has an overall goal to design and implement new sensor technology offering unprecedented levels of specificity needed to analyze the complex contaminant mixtures found at DOE sites. A prototype was tested successfully on Hanford tank waste containing ferrocyanide (http://www.sc.doe.gov/).
Subsurface contamination by Tc is of particular concern because of the extremely long life of its most common isotope 99Tc (half-life = 2 x 105 years) and the fast migration in soils exhibited by its most common chemical form, pertechnetate (TcO4-). The sensor has the capability for onsite monitoring, either by immersion in subsurface water for continuous monitoring or for immediate analysis of collected samples. The device combines electrochemistry, spectroscopy, and selective partitioning, which substantially improves selectivity. The key to adapting this sensor to detect TcO4- lies in the development of unique chemistry within the chemically selective (Figure 1).
This research has led to the discovery of the first luminescence from trans-dioxo-technetium(V) complexes. The room- and low-temperature luminescence studies of trans-[TcO2(L)4]+ (L = pyridine or picoline) and trans-[TcO2(CN)4]3- opens a new chapter in Tc chemistry, both in a fundamental and practical sense. The low temperature luminescence spectrum (Figure 2) for [TcO2(pic)4](BPh4), with [ReO2(pic)4](BPh4) shown as an overlay spectrum, and clearly shows a lower energy (~180-200 cm-1) vibronic progression for analogous Re and Tc complexes. This important development allows us to develop a theoretical model that can be used to predict the optical behavior of Tc complexes in general.
This discovery also provides the first opportunity to directly compare fundamental luminescence properties of second- and third-row d2 metal-oxo congeners. The analytical applications of the TcO2 chromophore offer promise for design of dual-mode complexes that can correlate luminescence and radioimaging properties into a single agent. For the EMSP project's purposes, luminescent Tc(V) complexes are a significant advance in the team's design of a spectroelectrochemical sensor for detection of pertechnetate in the environment. An article featuring the sensor work was released on the October 8 web page of the Journal of the American Chemical Society and can be accessed at http://pubs3.acs.org/acs/journals/doilookup?in_doi=10.1021/ja054906m. The research team members are William R. Heineman and Carl J. Seliskar, University of Cincinnati; and Samuel A. Bryan and Timothy L. Hubler, PNNL.

GIRLS BASKETBALL: Torrington rolls past Woodland in first round of NVL Tournament
WATERBURY >> Torrington High School's girls basketball team put memories of a bad regular-season game to rest with a good start in the NVL Tournament Monday afternoon.
The Red Raiders (17-4) lost by two points at Woodland (10-11) last month in one of their worst performances of the year.
Monday, at Holy Cross High School, No. 2 seed Torrington set the record straight with a 61-39 quarterfinal win over the No. 7 Hawks.
"We thought (the loss) was a fluke," said Raider junior point guard Caroline Teti. "It was one of our worst offensive games. We didn't really think of this as a revenge game. We just weren't going to let them stop us in the NVLs."
"The night we lost, we were out to lunch," said Coach Mike Fritch.
"We play with a lot of heart, but we don't play great basketball," said Woodland coach Jess Moffo.
Heart wasn't nearly enough against a good Red Raider team on a mission.
Teti's 21 points led nine Torrington scorers. The Red Raiders out-rebounded the Hawks 30-18. They forced 18 Woodland turnovers to just eight by Torrington.
"(The Raiders) played well," said Coach Fritch, looking down the Woodland side of the scorebook, pleased with a hustling, trapping defense that held Woodland to single digits in every quarter but the final mop-up period. "And we got good scoring even though we only had one player in double figures."
At Woodland, the Raiders let a 12-point lead slip away with a Hawk three-pointer at the end.
Monday, Torrington stayed focused from the first buzzer to the last.
Paige Middleton (8 points) fought for Torrington's first points with a put-back.
Woodland's first and last tie came on a five-foot runner.
Then the Raiders took off on a 15-5 spree through the first period.
Torrington's full court press went up at 3-2, 6:47 left in the quarter. Raider traps came deep all over the court. Woodland made almost no progress at all from the far endline. Coach Moffo had to call a time out to solve it.
Nicole Kozlak hit a three for the first real scoring gap, 6-2. Torrington center Megan Calabrese, plagued with fouls later in the game, added a layup, a put-back and a steal. Her replacement, Mia Barbieri, wheeled for a five-footer. Teti completed a three-point play. Kozlak laid in a great pass from Calabrese for the 17-7 first-period margin.
Teti stayed on the court with a hot shooting hand most of the game. Relatively low scoring from everyone else meant almost everyone else got a turn. Olivia Morrison (6 points) and Mika Howard (6 points, 7 rebounds) got their first hoops in the second quarter, Howard's layup coming on a nice pass from sophomore Barbieri.
Contributions from everyone and a steady flow of passes and hoops from Teti hiked Torrington's half-time lead to 31-16.
More young Red Raiders, like Brittany Anderson, came on in the third period, helping extend the lead to 46-24.
Kelli Balnis joined the scoring club in the fourth.
Woodland's high scorers were Andrea Piccolo (10 points) and Brianna Pacileo (9 points).
Torrington faces No. 3 seed Holy Cross today, 5 p.m., in the first of two tournament semi-finals at Kennedy High School.
Holy Cross beat No. 6 seed St. Paul 54-40 on Monday.
The Raiders beat the Crusaders twice in the regular season.

Haren keeps up turnaround against Braves
ATLANTA -- On Aug. 1, what had looked like a promising comeback season for Dan Haren through the season's first two months was in shambles.
He had just been shelled by the last-place Cubs, the latest blowout in a stretch during which he had a 6.52 ERA and only two quality starts in 11 outings.View Full Game Coverage
ATLANTA -- On Aug. 1, what had looked like a promising comeback season for Dan Haren through the season's first two months was in shambles.
He had just been shelled by the last-place Cubs, the latest blowout in a stretch during which he had a 6.52 ERA and only two quality starts in 11 outings.View Full Game Coverage
His 4.76 ERA was on track to be his worst since he compiled a 5.08 mark during his rookie season in 2003, as Haren had given up 26 earned runs on 36 hits in his past 23 1/3 innings over a stretch of five starts dating back to his first turn of July.
Haren credited Dodgers manager Don Mattingly for helping him get through the prolonged slump.
"He pumped me up, though, a little bit," Haren said of his skipper. "He said I'd done a good job for the team, I got a bunch of wins and they feel good with me. That felt good. Going through a rut like I was, I was pretty much off the Internet and ESPN and MLB. There's no need to see any negative reinforcements. It was good to feel something positive from him."
So when the right-hander limited the Angels to one run in 7 1/3 innings on Aug. 6, and then held the Braves to two runs in six frames as part of the Dodgers' 4-2 win on Tuesday night at Turner Field, Haren was obviously relieved.
"I felt definitely the heat of not doing well for so long," Haren said. "The self-doubt is going to creep into my mind. It was just weird how it happened. I was unsure how many starts left I would have, but it was pretty bad coming to the field and having so many bad starts in a row. How many starts did I have left? Who's to say if maybe I did bad in Anaheim, I'd throw out of the bullpen. I don't know."
"The one thing you can't ever question is, 'Is Danny going to be ready? Is he going to give you everything he's got?'" added Mattingly, who said the Dodgers never discussed removing Haren from the rotation. "It's going to be everything that Danny has when he pitches. That's something you can always be confident in."
Haren fanned seven and earned his 10th victory, marking his 10th consecutive season with double-digit victories thanks to an offense that singled its way to victory. The first-place Dodgers notched nine singles, upping their total this series to 19.
The biggest was a two-out bloop by Matt Kemp in the top of the fifth that found the leather of Tommy La Stella's glove before hitting the outfield grass, bringing home Carl Crawford for the go-ahead run.
Darwin Barney gave the Dodgers an early lead with an RBI single in the second, but Haren surrendered an RBI double to Justin Upton in the third and a solo homer to B.J. Upton in the fourth that put the Braves ahead entering the fifth.
B.J. Upton is 4-for-22 with four homers against Haren since the beginning of 2008.
But much like Kevin Correia sparked the Dodgers' decisive three-run sixth on Monday, Haren followed suit with a one-out single in the fifth on Tuesday. He went to third on a Crawford double before scoring the tying run on a Yasiel Puig groundout. Kemp followed with his RBI bloop to saddle Mike Minor with the loss.
Minor gave up three earned runs on eight hits over 6 2/3 frames, giving way to an Atlanta bullpen that let another run cross in the ninth courtesy of an Emilio Bonifacio error that allowed Barney to reach second before he advanced to third on an Adrian Gonzalez groundout and scored on a David Hale wild pitch.
"I've been watching this team from the other side for a long time and we're very versatile on offense," Barney said. "A lot of guys can hit the long ball obviously, and when a guy is pretty effective [like Minor], we got our hits and got the job done.
Nursing a 3-2 lead, the bullpen stretched but never broke as Los Angeles collected its 10th victory in its past 13 meetings with Atlanta, including last year's National League Division Series. Kenley Jansen slammed the door for his 33rd save.
Mattingly summed it up simply: "Happy with that game tonight."

Earl Grey tea cookies
Imagine a kitchen - well, actually a whole house - where the wonderful aroma of Bergamot orange is floating in the air. (If you're unfamiliar with bergamot, then my blog friend David Lebovitz comes to the rescue). Does that smell sound appealing? If yes, then read on :)
A friend of mine who works at KAFO (the Estonian distributor of Lavazza coffee, Just t teas, Jura coffee machines, Monbana Trésor chocolates, David Rio chais and such like) gave me a selection of Just t Black Label No X teas for degustation recently. All nine of them:
I had fun brewing and sipping them. Personal favourites - No 1 (Lemon balm herbal infusion), No 5 (Black tea Earl Grey Luxury), No 7 (Green tea jasmine blossom) and No 9 (Black tea Bombay Chai, with ginger, cloves, black pepper, cinnamon).
However, Nami-Nami is a food blog, not a drink blog, so I should provide you with a recipe instead of going on about my favourite teas, right? Coincidentally, my Uppsala-based friend Annika gave me two Swedish food magazines last Friday, and there was a recipe for Earl Grey-drömmar in one of them. These were egg-free cookies where one had to make an Earl Grey infused sugar to start with. Unfortunately, the cookies were a huge disappointment - they were too sweet and way too crumbly, so we sent the big box of cookies to someone we know appreciates soft and sugary cookies :)
Yet the smell of Bergamot in the air was so amazing that I had to give those cookies another try. This time I simply took my regular thumbprint cookie recipe and incorporated the lovely Earl Grey infused sugar into this recipe.
Much, much, much better. I ate them plain, well, with a large cup of freshly brewed Earl Grey tea, but a tiny schmear of lemon curd will make them even more enjoyable.
Earl Grey tea cookies
Makes about 30
60 g (about 100 ml) icing sugar/confectioner's sugar
2 Tbsp finest Earl Grey tea leaves
200 g unsalted butter, softened
240 g all-purpose/plain flour (400 ml)
55 g potato starch/potato flour
a pinch of salt
To start with, make the aromatic Earl Grey sugar. Blitz the caster sugar and tea leaves until you've got a fine powder:
Cream the butter with the Earl Grey sugar. Mix flour, salt and potato starch, sift into the butter mixture. Combine with a wooden spoon.
Using your hands, take small chunks of cookie dough and roll into small balls.
Place on a cookie sheet and flatten slightly. (If you prefer making thumbprint cookies, then press a thumb print onto each cookie and fill with a small dollop of lemon curd).
Bake in a preheated 180 C oven for about 15 minutes, until the cookies are light golden.
Cool for a few minutes, then transfer onto a metal rack to cool completely.

Tubli, Pille, mis halvasti see uuesti :) Kahjuks olen Baka retseptides tihtipeale imelikke näpukaid näinud, aga ei oska öelda kas kypsised olidki taotluslikult nii magusad. Seda tean kyll, et öiged drömmar-kypsised peavadki hästi muredad olema. Nende öige kypsetamine, et kerkiksid pealt praguliseks ja oleksid hästi öhulise ja kerged, on kohe omaette kunst, mis mul pole senini önnestunud :)

Klassiska vaniljdrömmar (raamatust Jan Hedh 277 sorters kakor)
300 g nisujahu
4 g hjorthornsalt (pödrasarvesool?)
225 g vöid
200 g suhkrut
25 g vaniljesuhkrut
(kui on soolata vöi siis vöib vast terakese soola lisada?)
Ahi 150 kraadi.
Söelu jahu ja pödrasarvesool kypsetuspaberile. Sega toasoe vöi suhkrutega, seejärel lisa jahu ja vormi ettevaatlikult tainaks. Rulli tainas ca 2 cm jämedusteks pulkadeks. Löika ca 11 g suurusteks tykkideks ja vormi need palliks. Aseta höredalt kypsetuspaberile. Kypseta ca 20-25 min, nad ei tohi värvi saada, peavadki jääma kahvatuks! Kui ahi on liiga kuum siis vajuvad kypsised kokku.
Variandid: Kokosdrömmar, lisa 80 g riivitud kookost. Pähkli-drömmar: lisa 70 g röstitud ja jahvatatud sarapuupähkleid. Shokolaadidrömmar: vähenda jahu kogust 30 g ja asenda see kakaopulbriga.

In April 2019, Venezuela's crude oil production averaged 830,000 barrels per day (b/d), down from 1.2 million b/d at the beginning of the year, according to EIA's May 2019 Short-Term Energy Outlook. This average is the lowest level since January 2003, when a nationwide strike and civil unrest largely brought the operations of Venezuela's state oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PdVSA), to a halt. Widespread power outages, mismanagement of the country's oil industry, and U.S. sanctions directed at Venezuela's energy sector and PdVSA have all contributed to the recent declines.
Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, based on Baker Hughes
Venezuela's oil production has decreased significantly over the last three years. Production declines accelerated in 2018, decreasing by an average of 33,000 b/d each month in 2018, and the rate of decline increased to an average of over 135,000 b/d per month in the first quarter of 2019. The number of active oil rigs—an indicator of future oil production—also fell from nearly 70 rigs in the first quarter of 2016 to 24 rigs in the first quarter of 2019. The declines in Venezuelan crude oil production will have limited effects on the United States, as U.S. imports of Venezuelan crude oil have decreased over the last several years. EIA estimates that U.S. crude oil imports from Venezuela in 2018 averaged 505,000 b/d and were the lowest since 1989.
EIA expects Venezuela's crude oil production to continue decreasing in 2019, and declines may accelerate as sanctions-related deadlines pass. These deadlines include provisions that third-party entities using the U.S. financial system stop transactions with PdVSA by April 28 and that U.S. companies, including oil service companies, involved in the oil sector must cease operations in Venezuela by July 27. Venezuela's chronic shortage of workers across the industry and the departure of U.S. oilfield service companies, among other factors, will contribute to a further decrease in production.
Additionally, U.S. sanctions, as outlined in the January 25, 2019 Executive Order 13857, immediately banned U.S. exports of petroleum products—including unfinished oils that are blended with Venezuela's heavy crude oil for processing—to Venezuela. The Executive Order also required payments for PdVSA-owned petroleum and petroleum products to be placed into an escrow account inaccessible by the company. Preliminary weekly estimates indicate a significant decline in U.S. crude oil imports from Venezuela in February and March, as without direct access to cash payments, PdVSA had little reason to export crude oil to the United States.
India, China, and some European countries continued to receive Venezuela's crude oil, according to data published by ClipperData Inc. Venezuela is likely keeping some crude oil cargoes intended for exports in floating storageuntil it finds buyers for the cargoes.
Source: U.S. Energy Information Administration, Short-Term Energy Outlook, and Clipper Data Inc.
A series of ongoing nationwide power outages in Venezuela that began on March 7 cut electricity to the country's oil-producing areas, likely damaging the reservoirs and associated infrastructure. In the Orinoco Oil Belt area, Venezuela produces extra-heavy crude oil that requires dilution with condensate or other light oils before the oil is sent by pipeline to domestic refineries or export terminals. Venezuela's upgraders, complex processing units that upgrade the extra-heavy crude oil to help facilitate transport, were shut down in March during the power outages.
If Venezuelan crude or upgraded oil cannot flow as a result of a lack of power to the pumping infrastructure, heavier molecules sink and form a tar-like layer in the pipelines that can hinder the flow from resuming even after the power outages are resolved. However, according to tanker tracking data, Venezuela's main export terminal at Puerto José was apparently able to load crude oil onto vessels between power outages, possibly indicating that the loaded crude oil was taken from onshore storage. For this reason, EIA estimates that Venezuela's production fell at a faster rate than its exports.
EIA forecasts that Venezuela's crude oil production will continue to fall through at least the end of 2020, reflecting further declines in crude oil production capacity. Although EIA does not publish forecasts for individual OPEC countries, it does publish total OPEC crude oil and other liquids production. Further disruptions to Venezuela's production beyond what EIA currently assumes would change this forecast.
Market Watch
Headline crude prices for the week beginning 13 May 2019 – Brent: US$70/b; WTI: US$61/b
Headlines of the week
Midstream & Downstream
Natural Gas/LNG
The world's largest oil & gas companies have generally reported a mixed set of results in Q1 2019. Industry turmoil over new US sanctions on Venezuela, production woes in Canada and the ebb-and-flow between OPEC+'s supply deal and rising American production have created a shaky environment at the start of the year, with more ongoing as the oil world grapples with the removal of waivers on Iranian crude and Iran's retaliation.
The results were particularly disappointing for ExxonMobil and Chevron, the two US supermajors. Both firms cited weak downstream performance as a drag on their financial performance, with ExxonMobil posting its first loss in its refining business since 2009. Chevron, too, reported a 65% drop in the refining and chemicals profit. Weak refining margins, particularly on gasoline, were blamed for the underperformance, exacerbating a set of weaker upstream numbers impaired by lower crude pricing even though production climbed. ExxonMobil was hit particularly hard, as its net profit fell below Chevron's for the first time in nine years. Both supermajors did highlight growing output in the American Permian Basin as a future highlight, with ExxonMobil saying it was on track to produce 1 million barrels per day in the Permian by 2024. The Permian is also the focus of Chevron, which agreed to a US$33 billion takeover of Anadarko Petroleum (and its Permian Basin assets), only for the deal to be derailed by a rival bid from Occidental Petroleum with the backing of billionaire investor guru Warren Buffet. Chevron has now decided to opt out of the deal – a development that would put paid to Chevron's ambitions to match or exceed ExxonMobil in shale.
Performance was better across the pond. Much better, in fact, for Royal Dutch Shell, which provided a positive end to a variable earnings season. Net profit for the Anglo-Dutch firm may have been down 2% y-o-y to US$5.3 billion, but that was still well ahead of even the highest analyst estimates of US$4.52 billion. Weaker refining margins and lower crude prices were cited as a slight drag on performance, but Shell's acquisition of BG Group is paying dividends as strong natural gas performance contributed to the strong profits. Unlike ExxonMobil and Chevron, Shell has only dipped its toes in the Permian, preferring to maintain a strong global portfolio mixed between oil, gas and shale assets.
For the other European supermajors, BP and Total largely matched earning estimates. BP's net profits of US$2.36 billion hit the target of analyst estimates. The addition of BHP Group's US shale oil assets contributed to increased performance, while BP's downstream performance was surprisingly resilient as its in-house supply and trading arm showed a strong performance – a business division that ExxonMobil lacks. France's Total also hit the mark of expectations, with US$2.8 billion in net profit as lower crude prices offset the group's record oil and gas output. Total's upstream performance has been particularly notable – with start-ups in Angola, Brazil, the UK and Norway – with growth expected at 9% for the year.
All in all, the volatile environment over the first quarter of 2019 has seen some shift among the supermajors. Shell has eclipsed ExxonMobil once again – in both revenue and earnings – while Chevron's failed bid for Anadarko won't vault it up the rankings. Almost ten years after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, BP is now reclaiming its place after being overtaken by Total over the past few years. With Q219 looking to be quite volatile as well, brace yourselves for an interesting earnings season.

Actress Tilda Swinton surprised onlookers at New York's Museum of Modern Art on Saturday when she spent the whole day sleeping inside a glass box.
The star entered the venue when it opened and took up residence in the art installation, named The Maybe, until it closed.
A statement from the museum reads, "An integral part of The Maybe's incarnation at MoMA in 2013 is that there is no published schedule for its appearance, no artist's statement released, no museum statement beyond this brief context, no public profile or image issued. Those who find it chance upon it for themselves, live and in real – shared-time: now we see it, now we don't."
Swinton first performed the piece in 1995 at London's Serpentine Gallery, collaborating with artist Cornelia Parker on the project.

A Birth Unfolds in Photos & Words
Needing to change to a hospital birth late in pregnancy, my client was able to change to Dr. Wonderful who works at one of the two Baby-Friendly hospitals in our city. His promise to help her have a marvelous natural birth in the hospital wasn't bullshit; his words are Truth.
This first picture, however, demonstrates what occurred when mom was admitted to the hospital. The baby's baseline fetal heart tones were about 100, albeit somewhat reactive. FHTs during the pregnancy were 140's-150's, so 100's were somewhat disconcerting. Dr. Wonderful was called in.
This photo shows mom's sister laying on hands and giving loving energy. Mom is talking to the baby, letting her know she is safe and all is well... dad, as we can see, is concerned, but hanging in there. Mom has oxygen on her and technology all around.
The (wonderful, amazing) nurse (we had) did a vaginal exam and found mom to be 3 cm. The nurse and I began preparing mom for a cesarean - physically and emotionally. I explained the cesarean procedure, the epidural... and the nurse said the anesthesiologist would do a spinal because the spinal would be faster... and I explained things to dad, tried to get his garb for him to put on, but we were busy getting consents signed and all. Waiting for the doctor seemed endless. Fetal heart tones were dipping into the 90's and not getting any higher than 110 with accelerations. I kept calm, but was clear and sharp with the information.
My dear doctor was on the phone at the nurse's station when I went out to go ask his ETA and our nurse said, "Do you want to talk to him?" and I emphatically said, "YES!" before the other nurse hung up and said he was on his way in.
Dr. Wonderful floated into the room like a silk scarf on perfumed air, filled with more confidence and hope than I carried - more like a midwife than I was at that moment.
He did a vaginal exam and immediately, the baby's heart rate jumped to 148! She loved his touch on her head. Oh, and how I did, too. Mom had also progressed to 6 cm. in the last 30 minutes. Amazing!
Tears fell from my eyes as I watched the baby's heart rate settle back down into the low 100's (90's/100's) and the doctor suggested taking a whiff of oxygen every few minutes when she felt like it instead of keeping it on all the time like she had been. He also told her she didn't have to lie on her left side... to move wherever she wanted to - oh, how she wanted to be on her hands and knees! He said the baby was just low, having a vagal response and there was no need for a cesarean at all.
And me, thinking he needed a scalpel. How precipitous I would have been as a surgeon! Thank the goddess it wasn't me making that decision.
The entire labor, my client was extremely vocal, so much so that at one point, the people next door banged on the wall, presumedly to make her be quiet. She, so high in her Laborland (her word), made passing notice, "What's that?" - not, "Oh, am I too loud?" I was so friggin' amused, I joined her howls, getting even louder than her for a few contractions lest she be worried at all about the sounds (she wasn't). No nurse came in to tell her/us to be quiet - that she was scaring the other women or that she was using all her energy in the wrong way or anything. She just howled her baby on down. Yummy!
And so mom moves onto her hands and knees... squats at times, rocks at times... even once jumped up onto her haunches from hands and knees!
I love, Love, LOVE this photo. It speaks of the beauty a hospital birth can actually attain when given a chance with the right doctors, nurses and hospital. And supportive midwife as doula.
Because we thought she would need a cesarean, we had mom take off her gorgeous Hawaiian dress and mom was then naked. The great nurse handed mom a hospital gown once mom knew she was going to stay laboring in that room and she promptly took the gown, put it in front of her and puked all over it. I thought I was going to pee in my pants from laughing so hard. No one ever offered her another gown.
Dr. Wonderful and Nurse Fantastic are seen below with mom as she feels her baby's head as it descends into her vagina. The doctor is on her left side, on the bed; the nurse, kneeling on the floor. Most of the time, I was where the nurse was, but occassionally moved to take photos. Notice that mom's belts have been removed... this is easily many, many minutes before the birth. We/I held the monitor to her belly instead of her having to contend with the strap at the end. I held the monitor on her belly for most of labor so she was able to move around, too. I much prefer hand cramps to a mom's immobilization.
Mom had a couple of exams. The nurse asked to do an exam when mom had an urge to push, but I discouraged it, so she went away. When mom thought she was pushing, I asked her to feel for herself and she felt for the head and it was, indeed there. I couldn't see (my head was down under her, lying on the bed), so Dr. Wonderful just rested his hand on her perineum for one second and said, "Yup, baby's right there," and removed his hand.
I was inches away from mom's perineum as the baby was coming towards the earth and this was the last photo right before Dr. Wonderful put his hands in the way and covered the head as the baby was being born. (I'm going to have to speak to him about that!) This series of minute forward motion head shots is so incredible because I can see the capillaries stretching/breaking in mom's vulva as the head descends. Who knew all that happened!
Dad wasn't sure about catching, was going to help me catch when we were having a homebirth, but wasn't so sure about it at the hospital. Once there, though, I'd talked him into helping the doc and even had him practice washing his hands with the fancy foot soap and water thingie at the sink. Once the doctor was there, though, he was more nervous, but as things got closer, I put my midwife voice on and said, "You will only birth this child ONE TIME, so I HIGHLY suggest..." and that was as far as I needed to go before he jumped up and washed his hands and got ready to help the doc catch his baby.
The picture below is the beautiful photo of dad (who does NOT have gloves on, thank goodness!) assisting Dr. Wonderful with his newborn daughter.
In 24 years and 8 months of assisting women in birth in the hospital, I have never seen a woman birth on hands and knees. I've never seen an OB or a CNM allow a woman to birth in the hands and knees position. I have never seen an OB do a vaginal exam on a woman in any position except on her back until this birth when this doctor did a vaginal exam with mom on her hands and knees. I actually wondered if he could even find her vagina with her on her hands and knees! He didn't have any problems at all. Shocking. I think I've seen a CNM do a vaginal exam on a woman in an "alternative" position maybe 20 times in all these years, so even that is a sad commentary. I tell women I can find their vagina or fetal heart tones if they are hanging from chandeliers! How did I get so good at it? PRACTICE!
Nothing needs to be said about a mother's love. This picture is my desktop right now. I think this is one of the best pictures I have ever done showing a mother and child. I get shivers just looking at it! The shadows are perfect, the lights... the IV... all of it... her daughter isn't even 3 minutes old in this picture.
I end the series with a tender surprise photo I took of Dr. Wonderful with my client. He embraced her, then she him. He with tears in his eyes and both of them whispering thanks to each other.
So, it just seemed so important to demonstrate how it CAN be. It might not be for anyone else in the world but this one mom - or the moms who get this one amazing doctor - but if this one man can exist, then there is hope in hospital birth. It doesn't mean hospital birth replaces homebirth at all. My client needed to birth in the hospital for a very serious reason and she was so amazingly gracious about moving to the hospital to deliver there. So, if some women do have to deliver in the hospital... isn't it a good thing to have hope?

Earl Hart says the Spring Festival Road Race presented by Rotary Club of Lehigh Acres and sponsored by Lehigh Regional Medical Center drew 120 runners last year.
He's hoping this year's 4-K event will draw even more.
"It's a great fun thing for runners," Hart who works at Cooper Head Golf Club said.
The race begins at 8 a.m. on Saturday, March 17 at the Microtel Inn and Suites at 1320 Business Way in Lehigh.
If you haven't already registered, you still have time, Hart says.
"You can pre-register online at www.ftmyerstrackclub.com or from 7 to 7:45 a.m. on race day.
Age groups include adults with a preregistration fee of $20 or $25 on race day, and Youth (18 and under), $10 preregistration is $10 and $15 on race day. All checks should be made out to the Rotary Club of Lehigh Acres and can be mailed 1152 Cherokee Ave., Lehigh Acres, FL 33936.
Hart said the race route begins at the Microtel Inn and goes behind the post office down S. Loop and up Westminster to Broad St. loop to Presbyterian Homes and Woodard St. and then across Beth Stacy to the first loop in Cedarwood and back to the Microtel following the same route.
"It's a good four miles," Hart said.
There are overall awards for racers including male and female overall, male and female masters, male and female grandmasters, and male and female Senior Grandmasters.
Also, age group awards are first, third male and female: 9-under 10-12, 13-15, 16-19; 20-24 25-29, 30-34, 3539, 40-44, 45-49, 50-54, 55-59, 60-64, 65-69, 70-74 and 75 and over.
Hart noted that the event will be timed using the new Chrono Track Bib Tag technology.
"Your timing strip is attached to your race number. Do not remove this tag, fold or wrinkle it or your race number. Do not cover your race number (tag) with a jacket. Simply pin all four corners to your running shirt," he said.
There will be refreshments and awards presented immediately following the race at the Microtel Inn & Suites.
Hart said the proceeds are used to support Rotary Kids Night Baseball, East Lee County High School's Interact Club, JROTC, Track and Cross Country teams.
Hart said the fastest anyone has run in the race dates back to 1988 or 1989 when a visitor to Lehigh from Eugene, Oregon, identified as Kevin Ryan, ran the four miles in 19 minutes and 22 seconds.
"That record hasn't been beat yet," Hart said. "That's a pretty good time."

Eye Glasses and Contact Lenses
Lenses for correcting or improving vision:
There are two types of lenses prescribed for correcting or improving vision. These include:
- eyeglasses (also called spectacles)
Eyeglasses, the most common form of eyewear used to correct or improve many types of vision problems, are a frame that holds two pieces of glass or plastic, which have been ground into lenses to correct refractive errors. Refractive errors can include nearsightedness or myopia (difficulty seeing far away), farsightedness or hyperopia (difficulty seeing close up), and astigmatism (blurring due to an irregularly shaped cornea). Eyeglasses perform this function by adding or subtracting focusing power to the eye's cornea and lens.
- contact lenses
Contact lenses are worn directly on the cornea of the eye. Like eyeglasses, contact lenses help to correct refractive errors and perform this function by adding or subtracting focusing power to the eye's cornea and lens.
How to read an eyeglass prescription:
The lens power of eyeglasses is measured in diopters. This measurement reflects the amount of power necessary to focus images directly on to the retina. When looking at an eyeglasses prescription, you will see the following abbreviations:
In addition, the eyeglass prescription may also contain the following measurements.
|This number measurement reflects the extent of the nearsightedness or farsightedness.
|This number measurement refers to the amount of astigmatism (an irregularly shaped cornea which causes blurring) in the eye.
|This number measurement describes the astigmatism in degrees from the horizontal (most left and right eyes have the same axis in astigmatism) axis.
Bifocal prescriptions, which correct both nearsightedness and farsightedness, usually have an additional measurement listed on the prescription as "add," to indicate the strength of the lens.
Did You Know?
By federal law, an eye doctor is required to provide an eyeglass prescription, following an eye exam, at no extra cost. In addition, under federal law, you have the right to a copy of your eyeglass prescription, so that you can shop for the best value in eyewear.
What are the different types of eyeglass lenses?
The type of lenses used in eyeglasses depends on the type of vision problem and may include:
- Concave lenses - are thinnest in the center. Used to correct nearsightedness (myopia), the numerical prescription in diopters is always marked with a minus (-) symbol.
- Convex lenses - are thickest in the center, like a magnifying glass. Used to correct farsightedness (hyperopia), the numerical prescription in diopters is always marked with a plus (+) symbol.
- Cylindrical lenses - curve more in one direction than in the other and are often used to correct astigmatism.
Facts about contact lenses:
About 36 million Americans wear contact lenses, 80 percent of whom wear daily wear soft lenses. Currently, there are four types of contact lenses in use:
- the soft, water-absorbing lens
- the rigid, gas-permeable lens
- other rigid lenses
- other flexible, non-water absorbing lenses
Reading a contact lens prescription:
The prescription for contact lenses includes more information than what is available on the prescription for eyeglasses. Special measurements will need to be taken of the curvature of the eye. In addition, the physician will determine if the eyes are too dry for contact lenses, and if there are any corneal problems that may prevent a person from wearing contact lenses. Trial lenses are usually tested on the eyes for a period of time to ensure proper fit.
The contact lens prescription usually includes the following information:
- contact lens power (measured in diopters, like eyeglasses)
- contact lens base curve
- diameter of the lens
Eye care specialists are required by federal law to give you a copy of your contact lens specifications.

Bakery is a Crafting Building in FarmVille. By collecting certain bushels, a farmer may produce pastries in it. It was released on July 20, 2010 in a limited release, with the rest of the users receiving it over the next few days.
Stages Edit

2 Star
3 Star

5 Star
Recipes and Bushels Edit
There are increasing levels of recipes, which increase as you make or sell a product. Leveling up recipes unlocks the ability to level up the bakery (see table at right). Goods require a 6 hours in the oven to "bake," but they do not "burn" if left in the oven past this time. The ingredients come from your store of bushels. If you are missing ingredients you can get bushels from your neighbors (see Farmer's Market), or if nobody is offering that type of bushel you can post a request to the news feed for one bushel per friend that responds. There are a total of 15 recipes which can be created in the bakery, using 28 different crops (see table below). For each product made you get 50xp, regardless of level.
Assuming that bushel drop rates are the same for all seeds one can calculate the expected productiveness of different recipes, which are done mostly via do-it-yourself (i.e. bushels found by yourself). Independent from the actual bushel drop rate one can compare different recipes by summing up the growth time of the underlying seeds and dividing that number by the amount of produced products. The lower this value, the higher the output. E.g. a Pumpkin Bread would have a value of (4 * 8 + 4 * 12) / 2 = 40. The Bakery recipe with the best productivity is the Triple Berry Pie (8.67).
Of course, this calculation is done ignoring neighbors - whose bushels and their willingness to buy products is an important factor. Taking them into account you have to think about the following issues:
- Maybe you can not produce as fast as your neighbors buy your products. With a full upgraded Craft Cottage you can finish up to 24 recipes per day, i.e. 48-96 products. With hundreds of active neighbors you should aim to make level 4 or level 5 recipes as these will net the highest income per time - assuming you do get the bushels to create them all.
- When you fetch bushels from neighbors, you can always fetch 3 per neighbor, regardless of their seeds' growth time. I.e., recipes with only very few bushels might be quite productive, regardless of their underlying seeds' growth time. Even if only one of your neighbors plants a specific long-growth time seed over and over then a related recipe might be much more productive to you than others.
- If only very few neighbors buy your products then it might be wise to concentrate on one specific recipe that you can produce without a hassle. Since your neighbors often would buy the most expensive product (though it does not have the best fuel/coins ratio), this is the best way to increase your income.

Moose Lake School Board reorganizes
Four of the six members of the Moose Lake School Board voted to elect Kris Lyons as chair of the Moose Lake School Board for a second year after Lyons, serving as acting chair, swore in the new member of the board, Scott Benoit, and returning members, Jamie Jungers and Lisa Anderson-Reed, who had been re-elected.
Julie Peterson nominated Lisa Anderson-Reed but she and Anderson-Reed were the only two votes against Lyons and for Anderson-Reed. Board members voting for Lyons were Benoit, Jungers, Peter Steen and Lyons.
"I don't think Kris (Lyons) should have been nominated," said Peterson. "She is leading the district. I consider her a friend but, because of her personal problems, she should not be the chair."
Lyons apologized to the board for her personal problems and said that she accepted Peterson's personal opinion.
"I have heard from many people that you should not be chair," added Peterson. "No one ever talked about you not being on the board but multiple people said that you should have stepped down from being the chair."
Lyons had been charged with two counts of DWI after being arrested on August 15, 2012.
Peterson also made a statement after Steen was elected as vice chair of the board in the second round of voting.
"With Billie Jo (Steen) as an administrator, I feel that it is difficult to have a spouse as an officer on the board, in my opinion," she said.
Peter and Billie Jo Steen are husband and wife. Billie Jo is the high school principal.
Anderson-Reed was re-elected to serve as clerk.
A motion was passed to name Linda Dahlman, the business manager for the school district, to perform the duties as treasurer.
The board meetings and time of meetings will remain at the third Monday of the month at 6 p.m. in room 115 of the high school.
The board voted to keep the board members' annual compensation rates at $2,400 for the chair, $1,500 for the clerk and others at $1,200.
The mileage rate was set at the IRS rate of 56.5 cents a mile.
The per diem rates for overnight meetings and conferences of $7 for breakfast, $10 for lunch and $17 for supper will remain at the current rates.
The First National Bank was again named the school district's depository, and Lyons and Anderson-Reed were again named as signatories.
A closed meeting to evaluate Robert Indihar as superintendent will be held after the working board meeting on January 14.
Task force meetings of community members were set for Thursday, January 10, at 7 p.m. and Tuesday, January 15, at 7 p.m., if needed.
The regular board meeting has been set for Monday, January 28, at 6 p.m.

Find full information about the Communication Requirement at web.mit.edu/commreq.
Beginning with students entering in Fall 2001, all MIT undergraduates must fulfill a Communication Requirement (CR) by completing a program of four communication-intensive (CI) subjects that teach written and oral communication. The CR is designed to ensure that the students' communication training is distributed over several years of study. To achieve this goal, the Requirement is structured so that students complete at least one CI subject in each year of undergraduate study.
Two of the required subjects are chosen from a group of designated subjects offered in the Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences curriculum (CI-H subjects). The other two required CI subjects are taken in the student's major department (CI-M subjects).
- CI-H subjects (Communication Intensive in the Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences) provide a foundation in effective writing and oral communication. CI-H subjects are writing classes or classes in the HASS curriculum in which students plan, organize, draft, and revise a series of assignments based on course material.
- CI-HW subjects are a subset of CI-H subjects concentrating more particularly on the writing process. CI-HW subjects focus on the writing process (e.g., pre-writing, drafting, revising, and editing) and the rhetorical dimensions of writing (e.g., the audience for whom one is writing, the purpose for which one is writing—to argue, inform, persuade, explain, and convince).
- CI-M subjects (Communication Intensive in the Major) teach the specific forms of communication common to the field's professional and academic culture. Students may write in teams, prepare and present oral and visual research reports for different audiences, learn audience analysis and peer review, or go through the experience of proposing, writing, and extensively revising a professional journal article.
As a result of this structure, a wide spectrum of communication-intensive subjects is offered across all five Schools throughout the Institute. These subjects encompass a number of formats including: laboratory classes, in which students write, revise and present laboratory reports; seminars, in which they prepare and lead discussions; senior theses; and independent research projects.

Nicole Kidman Will Join Keith Urban During 'American Idol' Live Shows
It's not often you see country star Keith Urban and his wife Nicole Kidman, apart from one another. Of course, there are times — like when Urban is on stage or Kidman is in front of a camera — that they can't stand side by side. But that won't stop the actress from being in the wings when her hubby judges the upcoming season of 'American Idol.' She confirmed in a recent interview that she plans to watch the show from backstage.
At the Emmy Awards on Sunday night, E! News host Ryan Seacrest caught up with Kidman. According to Us Weekly, the actress told him that she will be waiting off stage to cheer on her husband during 'Idol' tapings.
"Yeah! Next year I'll be there," the actress said. Although, Urban will have to wait until 2013 to have his beautiful wife on his arm.
"This year I'm in France. I'm playing Grace Kelly, actually," she explained. The Oscar winner will star as Princess Grace in 'Princess Grace of Monaco.' Hoping to keep her ivory skin tone in tact to do Grace Kelly justice, Kidman is worried about how her she'll react to the hot sun in Los Angeles, where 'Idol' will be filmed.
"I'm gonna get sunburned. I should be pale!" she joked.
Of course, that wouldn't stop her from standing by her man.
Urban, 44, just recently confirmed that he'll be sitting on the 'American Idol' judges panel with Randy Jackson, Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey when the upcoming season airs in the new year. On the red carpet, he was sure to tell Seacrest that he's excited to work with him soon.
"I'm very glad you're there. I'm glad Randy's there. It's a good comfort level!" he said.

Author Josh Kelly Visits Shelby to Talk Jack Dempsey
Back in 1921, not long after oil had started gushing from our northern Montana fields, real estate sales here in Shelby were declining, dimming our little town's prospects of becoming the "Tulsa of the West." Then the mayor's son dreamed up a marketing ploy: offer to host heavyweight champion Jack Dempsey's next fight.
What began as a publicity stunt soon spiraled into a civic drama unlike any Montana had ever seen, or would ever again.
Shelby's Folly tells this story in full for the first time. Famous Chicago author Josh Kelly, an associate editor of the University of Chicago Magazine, will be here in Shelby this Sunday afternoon from 1 until 5 at the Marias Museum to discuss his book "Shelby's Folly: Jack Dempsey, Doc Kearns, and the Shakedown of a Montana Boomtown".
Kelly's book is a GREAT read and he'll be joining me Friday afternoon at 4:30 on the Puffman Show. I read the book last year and enjoyed my first interview with Josh last year. Bill Kaufman from the Wall Street Journal says the book is "enjoyable...Mr. Kelly writes sympathetically, not mockingly, of Shelby, and he has a proper appreciation for the brazen roguery of Doc Kearns, whose greed and manipulativeness made the fight possible — and doomed Shelby's self-promotional hopes".
It's a marvelous read and truly resonates with all of us who live here in the Golden Triangle. "Shelby's Folly" is a highly entertaining slice of American history using Jack Dempsey's July 4, 1922 heavyweight title fight versus Tommy Gibbons as a backdrop for brazen American optimism, small town politics, and snake oil salesmanship.
Welcome to Shelby, Josh and we're looking forward to hearing from you Friday afternoon on the Puffman Show and seeing you this Sunday afternoon at the Marias Museum from 1 until 5. I'm sure that Josh will bring some extra copies of the book for Sunday's event at the museum.

I've got a few tutorials in the works for the Under $5 & 15 minutes series .. but I've also got some Etsy orders that need to be cranked out. So, for today, I thought I'd show you what's being mailed today. This order is a custom order. The lovely lady loves the original "Ruffled Shoulder Dress" from my Etsy shop. However, she has a little bit of "artwork" on her arm that she wanted to cover up for a wedding. So, she asked for longer sleeves. Also, she wanted something in emerald green to accommodate a 'fascinator' head piece that she'd already picked out. So, I did my best. I'm delighted with the outcome and just might need on of these myself!
And here is the version from my shop:
That's all for now … can't wait to chat again!

I was under the impression collusion would exist if collectively owners co-operate to keep contracts artificially low. But anyway, I agree for it not to be collusion the players have to agree collectively. They have done that and now I can sympathise that a market correction might be needed, however, with revenues going up collectively I think the owners need to share that load equally. so far they are not and thats why I cant support themTopper wrote: So some one else did.
That is the case throughout the league. That is why Suter and Parise held their auctions for services.
If the owners decided not to pay up, that is collusion.
wow thats a lot of collectively's said the borg...

- Nearly every question I get can be found in the help file(s) included with the download. Also be sure to check the theme FAQ on each item description.
- Every theme goes through the same testing at Envato to be sure it is top quality and in working order before it can go up for sale.
Please contact me using the form at the right with any questions – thanks!

Best-selling author and neuroscientist Dr. Eben Alexander, M.D. will speak at Saint Paul's Episcopal Church, 22 E. Chestnut Hill Ave. on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 20 at 2 p.m. The suggested donation is $10. The public is invited.
Following a presentation on his book "Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife," and an exploration of consciousness giving access to transcendence, there will be a period for questions and answers, as well as a book signing.
Alexander, while on the faculty of Harvard Medical School, helped promote the development of stereotactic radiosurgery, intraoperative MR imaging and MRI-guided focused ultrasound surgery in neurosurgery. In 2008 Alexander endured a severe case of bacterial meningitis. During a seven-day coma, he underwent a near-death experience that is recounted in his book.
The richly detailed memory of that experience persists and has changed his life. His experience took him to another world where he encountered a sister he had never known and an unconditional compassion stronger than death.
As a scientist, Alexander was led to make the connection between the material and the spiritual in his understanding of consciousness and the brain. No longer, he submits, is there the need to choose between spiritual belief and objective science.
Donations toward Alexander's presentation will benefit The Center for Contemporary Mysticism, a newly forming, local center to foster transcendent consciousness in daily life.
The Institute for Religion and Science at Chestnut Hill College is also assisting in making Dr. Alexander's appearance possible. For more information call Saint Paul's Church, 215-242-2055; or visit the church on the web at: www.stpaulschestnuthill.org.
