San Francisco oil spill larger than thought
November 8, 2007 04:14 PM - By Adam Tanner, Reuters
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Many beaches in the San Francisco area remained closed on Thursday as officials tried to clean up 58,000 gallons of fuel that spilled into the West Coast city's famous bay the day before.
"This is a major spill," said Wil Bruhns, a division chief at the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board. "It certainly has the potential to cause damage to birds, fish and other wildlife."
The Cosco Busan struck a tower of the Bay Bridge on Wednesday morning in dense fog, creating a long slash along the ship that allowed bunker fuel to spill into the water.
Childrens Toy Contains Date Rape Drug, Millions Recalled
November 8, 2007 12:36 PM - By Karey Wutkowski, Reuters
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Toy maker Spin Master Ltd of Toronto recalled its Aqua Dots toys from North American retailers after a similar line of toys called Bindeez was recalled in Australia. At least three children were hospitalized in Australia after swallowing beads from the toy that contain a chemical that converts into the sedating drug GHB when swallowed.
GHB is also known as the "date rape" drug. Spin Master, which distributes Aqua Dots in North America, said in a statement it stopped shipping the item and was trying to identify any shipments that could be included in a recall by U.S. and Canadian officials.
Fuel Spill Closes San Francisco Beaches
November 8, 2007 08:43 AM - Reuters
SAN FRANCISCO - A container ship bound for China struck a fog-shrouded tower of San Francisco's Bay Bridge on Wednesday morning, causing a fuel spill and forcing the closure of several San Francisco beaches, officials said. People near the spill reported suffering headaches and nausea as they breathed air containing vaporized oil, but public health officials said the fumes were not likely to have long-term health effects.
Beijing ups Surveillance of Water Supply
November 8, 2007 08:25 AM - Reuters
BEIJING - Beijing, host of next year's summer Olympics, has pledged to protect its water supply and add state-of-the-art surveillance systems around Games sites, state media said on Thursday, quoting officials. In 2001, when it won the right to host the Olympics, Beijing promised that it would be treating 90 percent of the 2.78 million cubic metres of waste water produced every day in the city and recycling half of the resultant effluent.
Safety agency issues new batch of toy recalls
November 7, 2007 10:13 PM - By Karey Wutkowski, Reuters
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - More recalls of lead-tainted toys made in China were announced on Wednesday by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, including 380,000 toy cars sold at Dollar General stores.
Other warnings included smaller recalls of Dizzy Ducks music boxes, Winnie-the-Pooh spinning tops, "Big Red" wagons, Dragster and Funny Car toys, and Duck Family collectible wind-up toys, all because of paint with unsafe levels of lead.
Millions of similar toy recalls, most involving Chinese-made products, have alarmed American consumers in recent months. Lead is toxic and can pose serious health risks to children, including brain damage.
Ship Emissions Seen Causing 60,000 Deaths a Year
November 7, 2007 10:05 PM - By Lindsay Beck
BEIJING (Reuters) - Emissions from ocean-going ships are responsible for about 60,000 deaths a year from heart and lung-related cancers, according to research published on Wednesday that calls for tougher fuel standards.
Shanghai, Singapore and Hong Kong, three of the world's five busiest ports, were likely to suffer disproportionate impacts from ship-related emissions, said the study, published in Environmental Science and Technology, a journal of the American Chemical Society.
"For a long time there's been this perception that ship emissions are out there in the ocean and they don't really affect anyone on land and I think this study shows that this is clearly false," said David Marshall, senior counsel at the Boston-based Clean Air Task Force, which co-commissioned the study.

Bill Clinton, Green Building Council Launch Effort To Green US Schools
November 7, 2007 04:44 PM - Paul Schaefer, ENN
Chicago - Today at the world's largest green building exposition in Chicago, Greenbuild 2007, former President Bill Clinton announced a joint commitment to green all of America's schools within a generation.
Earth Day Network (EDN) – a Clinton Climate Initiative (CCI) and Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) partner – and the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) joined former President Clinton in making this announcement to the American public and media.
Today's event formally kicked-off Earth Day Network's national Green Schools campaign, which includes three major initiatives: greening all new and existing school structures within a generation; developing and building healthier play areas and recreational facilities for all students; and working to greatly improve the food children eat in K-12 schools. Along with USGBC and the Clinton Foundation, Earth Day Network will expand the green schools movement through legislation, education, and corporate and community volunteer greening efforts.
Scientists Enhance Mother Nature's Carbon Handling Mechanism
November 7, 2007 10:54 AM - Penn State
Taking a page from Nature herself, a team of researchers developed a method to enhance removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and place it in the Earth's oceans for storage.
Unlike other proposed ocean sequestration processes, the new technology does not make the oceans more acid and may be beneficial to coral reefs. The process is a manipulation of the natural weathering of volcanic silicate rocks. Reporting in today's (Nov. 7) issue of Environmental Science and Technology, the Harvard and Penn State team explained their method.
China Vows New Facelift for Pollution-Battered Buddha
November 7, 2007 09:01 AM - Reuters
BEIJING - Chinese authorities will give a "facelift" to the world's tallest stone-carved Buddha just six years after the last repair effort as they struggle to fend off the effects of pollution and crowds, state media reported.
Carved out off a cliff beside a river, the 71-metre (233-ft) image of the seated Buddha at Leshan in the southwestern province of Sichuan is a magnet for tourists and the focus of local pride.

Staefa, Switzerland, June 23, 2011
From June 25 to July 4, Athens, Greece will host more than 7,000 athletes with intellectual disabilities from 170 countries for the 13th Special Olympics World Summer Games. During the Games, all athletes will receive comprehensive hearing screening as part of their medical check-up. For those athletes showing hearing loss, the Hear the World Foundation will donate hearing instruments with free follow-up care in their home country. The Hear the World Foundation was established in 2006 by leading Swiss hearing instrument manufacturer Phonak and is committed to improve the quality of life and promote equal opportunities for people with hearing loss worldwide.
An amazingly high 26 percent of the athletes participating in the Special Olympics have hearing loss. Unfortunately, many do not have hearing instruments. Often the cause is lack of access to medical and audiological care in their home country, or lack of funds. For this reason the Hear the World Foundation donates hundreds of high-quality hearing instruments to the Healthy Hearing Program organized by the Special Olympics.
"We are extremely honored to welcome the Hear the World Foundation into the Special Olympics Movement," said Dr. Timothy Shriver, Chairman and CEO of Special Olympics. "Our athletes represent the most medically underserved population in the world, and the World Games represents the largest health program exclusively for persons with intellectual disabilities. Now, Special Olympics can offer these deserving athletes the health intervention that will have an enormous impact on them, both on and off the playing field."
Free hearing screening for all athletes
During the Games, all of the athletes will undergo a comprehensive hearing screening as part of their medical check-up. Those who have been identified with hearing loss will receive free hearing instruments and corresponding follow-up care in their home countries – all organized and funded by the Hear the World Foundation. "The advanced technology in modern hearing instruments enables people with hearing loss to significantly enhance their quality of life," says Alexander Zschokke, Chairman of the Board of the Hear the World Foundation. "We are particularly pleased to be able to offer the athletes at the Special Olympics the chance to improve their hearing and ultimately their quality of life." In order to ensure that the athletes can enjoy their new hearing instruments year round, VARTA Microbattery, a leading provider of hearing instrument batteries and Partner of the Hear the World Foundation, is providing a year's supply of batteries for each athlete.
Hear the World Foundation projects around the globe
In addition to its cooperation with the Special Olympics, the Hear the World Foundation supports a variety of other projects all over the world, in countries such as Kenya, Cambodia and the Dominican Republic. Further information and the application form for those interested in supporting the projects can be found at www.hear-the-world.com.

So our church is holding a post-service Easter potluck Sunday morning, and on-site heating isn't really an option. We expect side dishes will be plentiful in this situation, so we'd like to contribute some sort of main-type thing.
We were thinking of cooking a large ham and slicing it to serve cold, but the prices and ham sizes here in Bratislava make that less than practical for us. Any suggestions for something hearty, cheap, tasty at room temperature and cheap?

Possible to extract registry backup from restore point?
Hi everybody, I was wondering if it is possible to extract the registry backup from a System Restore Point? In Windows XP the restore points were plain folders within the System Volume Information, but in Windows 7 they appear to be compressed into files like "{c09132a3-4131-11df-b9d7-002017c00008}{8807474b-c356-7e49-b2ae-03046e4cc752}". Is there a way to open these? I read the tutorial about extracting files from the system image vhd files in the WindowsImageBackup folder, but I think this is a different situation unless the system restore points are also vhd files?
(Background: I have a truecrypt system encryption which renders windows' own recovery function useless in the case of boot failure. So I ended up replacing the registry files manually by mounting my drive with a linux live cd w/ truecrypt. The only problem was to get hand on a working backup, so for the next time I'd like to know if I can extract the registry files from my old restore points).

The easiest way to handle this is to install ERUNT and have it auto start when the system boots. It will make a complete backup of your registry and store it in date named folders under \Windows\ERDNT\AutoBackup.
The reg files are easily restored by running the appropriate erdnt.exe file from the date named folder you want.
Worked well with XP and Vista and now works with Win 7.

The author of this program might be willing to give a clue:
ShadowExplorer.com - About
He digs out the file backups or shadow copies from restore point sets. I use the program and it's worked well for me. Perhaps a donation might get the author to provide a few clues. I don't think it's open source. But you might be surprised. Sometimes these programmer types will email you back if you ask a question tangential to one of their applications.

text: ნიკო ფიროსმანი Self-Portrait - Niko Pirosmani Geographical notes close Places are defined in terms of modern geography. Born: 1862; Mirzaany, Georgia * Died: 05 May 1918; Tbilisi, Georgia * Nationality: Georgian Art Movement: Naïve Art (Primitivism), Avant-garde Genre: animal painting, portrait Field: painting Influenced on: Mikhail Larionov Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niko_Pirosmani References: www.nikopirosmani.com Niko Pirosmani, a Georgian primitivist painter, orphaned at a young age, was characterized by the naïve, childlike simplicity of his subject matter and technique. He taught himself to paint as a child, creating his own oil for painting, and his specialty was painting directly onto black oil cloth. He was always poor, but willing to work, and as such he held many jobs throughout his life, including a herdsman and a railroad conductor. He also created signboards, co-founded a dairy farm, and held odd-jobs like house painting or white-washing buildings. Because of his destitute situation, he had little relationship with the profession of being an artist. As an example, he joined the Society of Georgian Painter, but developed a strained relationship with the society after one of the other artists drew an offensive caricature of him. Many of his works were either of historical figures or of everyday people living their everyday lives. In the 1910's he did receive some recognition, when a famous Russian poet and his brother presented his works to the Moscow newspaper, which published four of his works. Although he did receive some recognition, he died of malnutrition and liver failure, destitute and without artistic recognition. Posthumously, after WWI, his reputation grew, when his naïve style became popular in the art circles of Paris, and the first book of his work was published in 1926. A legend, which also helped cement his reputation, was that he had a romantic encounter with a French actress with whom he fell deeply in love. He thus filled the square outside of her hotel window with flowers, allegedly making himself bankrupt. His works have since been in exhibitions all around the world, and the Republic of Georgia recently put out a currency with Pirosmani's paintings on them.

Analysis of the Individually Paying Program of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation
The Individually Paying Program (IPP) is the voluntary component of the Philippines` social health insurance program. The program caters to those in the informal sector and those without a formal employer-employee relationship. Coverage levels for the IPP were found to be considerably low with a regional average of 57 percent and a provincial average of 53 percent. Massive variation between provinces was found. Four important factors were identified when looking into said variation. First, availability and accessibility is an issue. Second, substitution effect between private and public facilities was observed. Third, income levels do not appear to be a factor in determining the level of insurance coverage. Lastly, the size of certain sectors had a significant effect on the coverage levels observed in the province. Although there is a need to corroborate the findings with an individual-level analysis, these results are good indicators to start with in order to address the lack of coverage in the voluntary program of PhilHealth.

First, let's draw a distinction between America and the United States. The former is a nation of sorts, really more of a cultural empire. The latter is a nation-state. America is not a superpower. The United States is.
It remains one because it has ... wait for it ... the power. The US government has command of the planet's most powerful military, it controls much of the world's most powerful economy, it dispenses the world's most powerful set of benefits and punishments. As long as it possesses those assets, if you see them as that, it will be a superpower.
All empires and states do come to an end, of course. They carry the seeds of their own destruction, an observation that has been valid from the dawn of history and still is today. When the US as a superpower will meet its demise, however, is anyone's guess.

I think you are talking of the U.S. Yes the U.S. is still by far the only super power. The reason is I find U.S. citizens very mature and critical about everything.

No country on earth has ever done this.

Transfer students experience another pathway towards admissions. In fact, nearly half of all current undergraduate students begin their education by attending a community college. By far, the most common transfer path is students moving from two-year community colleges to four-year institutions, although there is considerable movement between four-year colleges well. Many private schools actively seek out transfer applicants to fill their classes.
The quality of classes, combined with low-cost tuition, encourages many high school graduates to continue their education at a community college. In most states, community colleges have transfer agreements in place with dozens of public and private universities. In fact, among all students in the US who earned a bachelor's degree, almost 1/3 had supplemented their college education with classes from a community college. Beyond major requirements within the admissions department, you may consider Central Alabama Community College concepts for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Traditional therapies such as acupuncture and homeopathy do have some evidence based studies that show they may help reduce arthritis symptoms in patients. Some traditional remedies for rheumatoid arthritis are rather more unusual and even though they have been used for hundreds of years, studies on their efficacy remain scarce. However, Patient QI did find some interesting studies on cobra venom and apitherapy.

♦ Creative Therapies
Wax Bath Therapy
There have been several clinical studies into the effectiveness of wax bath therapy, which involves the use of molten paraffin wax. This substance is thought to be one of the best ways of applying heat to improve the flexibility of joints – especially in the hands – by warming the connective tissues. It should not be used on hands that are cracked or have open sores or inflammatory skin conditions.
In a study, 52 patients with RA were split into four groups which had sessions of hand exercise and wax bath; exercise only; wax bath only; and control. Treatments were given three times a week for four weeks and the patients were tested for grip function, pain, strength and stiffness. Wax bath followed by exercise gave the greatest improvement, followed by exercise alone. Wax bath alone demonstrated no significant improvement in symptoms.
One of the main treatments for RA is methotrexate but it produces major side effects on the liver which is damaged by the drug's toxicity. For this reason arthritis patients frequently seek alternative medicines such as bee venom. A 2013 study looked at the interaction between methotrexate and bee venom and discovered that in rats treated with both substances at the same time the damage to the liver was significantly reduced while there was improved arthritic parameters and pain relief compared to just methotrexate alone .
Results of several trials on homeopathic remedies have shown inconsistent results, however one study conducted in 2014 on an animal model (negating the 'placebo' effect), using the homeopathic preparation Guaiacum officinale (Gua), found that the Guaiacum extract did increase anti-rheumatic and anti-oxidant activity. Further research was proposed.
This is another area where trial results are mixed and trial reviews have a tendency to criticise researchers for lax controls. A 2008 review of eight studies with a total of 536 RA patients found that although there was some encouragement for acupuncture among the active-controlled trials they monitored, there was conflicting evidence in the placebo-controlled trials. This led to a call for more rigorously controlled random control trials. However, a more recent, 2011, study published in the Chinese Journal of Integrative Medicine detailed a trial where 63 RA patients were divided into two groups, one of which had electro-acupuncture while the other had traditional acupuncture. Results showed that both types of treatment lowered tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) but that electro-acupuncture was more effective at lowering vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) than traditional acupuncture.
Cobra venom
There is growing evidence that Cobra, or Naja Naja atra venom (NNAV), is effective at soothing the symptoms of RA. However, the cobra is a rare animal and as yet a chemical substitute for its venom has not been perfected. A study on its antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects on rats with RA found that NNAV taken orally produced both effects and definitely warranted further research.

Amodern 7: Translation-Machination
Guest-edited by Christine Mitchell and Rita Raley
Submission deadline: September 1, 2016
Publication: Spring 2017
Translation occupies a special place in the history of computing. Not only was it the first non-numerical application attempted with computers, it was and still is an eminently graspable domain in which dreams and devices of Artificial Intelligence can be conjured, commended and cajoled by a variety of publics. Translation was recently characterized as "quaint, a boutique pursuit from a lost world," by theorist of uncreative language Kenneth Goldsmith. Are such proclamations thinkable now because translation is being supplanted by other processes and automations (whether linguistic or non-linguistic), or because machine translation renders translation's own machinations newly visible, in exciting and disconcerting ways?
Amodern 8 explores the contexts and implications of translation as mechanism, media, technique and transmission. Instead of regarding the machine as marking the limits of translation – an assumption that walls off translation practice from media and communication studies concerns, while absorbing its products – we seek papers that investigate possibilities and configurations of translation as machined, or as machining meaning, historically and in the contemporary moment. This themed issue seeks to move past translation's commonplaces (failures, losses, treacheries) and to interrogate its traditional demarcations (e.g. between literary and informational language), to investigate the production, transformation and impact of cross-lingual legibilities on page and screen, in sound, and at algorithmic and industrial scales, as mechanized translation and natural language processing are embedded into communications systems and information distribution networks.
This issue uses translation as a launchpad for addressing the sites and evolving understandings of linguistic exchange within the paradigm of "natural language processing," a messy catch-all term and material space that can engage poetics, linguistics, software engineering, literacy training, information genres, machine learning, publishing, language corpora, and digital humanities research. Ultimately, this issue aims to bring media critical and historical reflection to bear on translation's machinations by confronting not only what might be "natural" about natural language processing, but what's natural about natural language.
Submissions might address:
-media archaeologies of translation, applied linguistics, computational linguistics
-translation as technical performance / cultural technique
-translation and decoding, decryption, deciphering / encoding, encryption, enciphering
-genre theory, linguistic domains, topic modelling
-materiality of language planning and language engineering
-translation and intelligence
-translation automation, translation standards, translation professionalization
-materialities and mediations of linguistic data, bilingual corpora
-language as platform / language as corpus
-translation and linguistic labour
-audiovisual translation, intermedial translation
-changing temporalities, visibilities and spatial arrangements of translation
Contact: email@example.com.
Peer-reviewed articles are the backbone of Amodern. Each issue will consist primarily of peer-reviewed articles on a specific topic or theme.
To propose an issue idea to the editors, please send an email to email@example.com with the following information: Title; Significance / impact of topic; Description of the issue (number of articles, interviews, type and source of images); List of likely contributors; Relevant expertise of the editor(s); Work plan (including timelines).
Amodern publishes two kinds of interviews: article-length pieces, which may be submitted for an issue following the regular process, and feature-length interviews for our eponymous series, "The Amoderns." Feature-length interviews are not normally accepted over the transom, but if you have something completed and unpublished that you think might be appropriate for an upcoming issue, you're welcome to make an inquiry.
Each issue of Amodern showcases a small body of work by a particular artist or collective. To submit work for consideration, send us a URL to your portfolio and a short statement about the nature of your work.
We are interested in new forms for academic writing, such as the technical reports for communication in the Humanities that Nick Montfort describes in "Beyond the Journal and the Blog." The "Reports" section of Amodern is primarily a venue for unvetted interdisciplinary discourse that prioritizes flexibility, urgency, and sharability.
Special Projects
We will be using Amodern to showcase other kinds of materials as well: audio, video, and documentary/archival materials. If you have a proposal for such a project that works well with an upcoming topic and it's within your technical skills to produce and our technical means to support it, we'll consider it. Please contact us for further details.

Jamison - I totally understand the need for a long break. The longer ivf goes on the harder it gets. I actually enjoyed the 5 month break before starting this cycle even though I was on suppression for 10 weeks of it. It just took so much pressure off me because I knew there was no way I could get pregnant so as much as we desperatley want a baby there wasnt the disappointment each month or the failure of a cycle to deal with cos it is impossible to get utd while on the zoladex. Of course there was the dpwnside that it'll never happen if I'd stayed on the break but that was easier to deal with than the ongoing disappointments if that makes sense in a crazy way.
I hope you can enjoy your break and spend time with your DH doing all the lovely things that will be too hard to do once your bub comes along.
Mummywannabee - for BT - I hope it's good news.
Dani - , what awesome news. Your numbers look great - I have my you'll have a smooth, carefree pregnancy.
Lola - , so sorry you are having a hard time at the moment. I think we'd all love a crstal ball, I think it would make this journey easier to bear if we knew when we'd finally get our longed for bub.
Starfish - , I hope you've been surviving the OCP's they must be nearly finished?
Hi to everyone I missed.
afm, 1 week down and 1 to go in the 2ww. I'm still feeling really positive about this cycle at the moment but have still started the knicker watch today aarrgh, drives me crazy. I'm only CD24 so it'd be to soon anyway but cant make myself not look. I went in to the clinic this morning to get a BT to check my prog levels cos I always stress about them. When the nurse rang back all she said was that all my hormone levels look fine for CD 24 and she hopes she'll see me next week for my BT. At the time that sounded goodand I was relieved for about 2 minutes but now I'm thinking - is fine ok??? So I think the 2nd week crazies are settling in. I think I better go watch some tv to distract myself. Apart from all that I've just got lots of cramping and stabbing pains around my belly button but I know it means nothing cos it'd still be side effects from my pregnyl on Friday. I have everything that it has worked this time and 1 or both of my embies are snuggled in tight already and I dont have to go through this crazy 2ww again.
17-10-2011 17:59 #183
Lola, 1 crystal ball for me too please! Hope you are having a better week
Jamison, I think you are both incredibly insightful and strong to not get back on board the rollercoaster when you know you are not emotionally ready just at the moment. So many of us naturally feel the pressure of time and the sting of unsuccessful cycles urging us on until we are at breaking point and it takes true courage to put yourself on the sidelines until you are fit and ready to get back on. I think it shows you know yourself and your relationship very well. I truely, 100% believe it will put you in a better space for whatever comes next and make a sticky BFP more likely But in the meantime live your life, enjoy! BD yourselves crazy and I will wish for a natural miracle for you!
Lily, All aboard the positivity train to BFP town for you!!! I'm also this is your last 2ww.....till bubba no. 2!
Taking my last OCP tomorrow Cannot wait to come off it, have had the worst side effects of any drug I've taken during my IVF journey
Have had the sorest, hugest (.)(.) as well as bad skin and feeling super irritable and tired (I'm a joy to be around ATM!) I said this on the 35+ thread I seriously think I would prefer to inject clexane in my eyeball than go on the OCP again for an extended period!
So hopefully AF will arrive in the next week and then I start Progynova and go into a bit of a holding pattern waiting for sis's AF to arrive. I've never been on progynova before so not sure what to expect, anyone else been on it??
Just starting to feel the tiniest rays of hope about this cycle and the possibility of FINALLY getting a sticky bub... but at the same time it is really unknown how it will go as sis has obviously never cycled before So many questions, but at the heart of it such an amazing gift and I feel so blessed to have such a wonderful sister
Have a good week ALL
17-10-2011 18:18 #184
Starfish - for the bl00dy OCP's but that its about to end. I agree that your sister is a lovely person to do this for you but I'm sure that she thinks the world of you too.
Your comment about the clexane in the eye made me cos I know how yuk the clexane is. I've never taken the prognyove before so cant comment there but from what you've been through with the OCP surely it cant be worse. Hope not anyway for your sake.
You'll be PUPO before you know it with a VERY sticky bub

Hi, will catch up soon, but just a quick note, looks like AF is finally about to turn up and I can start another cycle, so just wondering if anyone thinks acupuncture would be worth trying, and if so does anyone recommend anyone on the Gold Coast or Brisbane?
18-10-2011 08:23 #186
Dani---Congrats for your BFP! I'm so glad to hear of long termers getting their well deserved and hard earned BFP's. I can understand all the sweats, tears and money that has gone into it.
Star---Good to see the end of the OCP, it makes me a little crazy too. Poor DH has copped a lot of hormonal abuses over the last few years.
Jamison---Enjoy your healing time. (That's what I call them anyway)
Lily--- Can't wait to hear your good news!
Haydos---I've heard good things about Jenny and Camilla at East West Fertility for acupuncture, they're at Ashgrove. Andrew Orr at Shen Fertility is also very popular, he's on the westside, but last time I went to EPU at St Andrew's Day Theatre I noticed he's opened a branch just next door on Level 1.
AFM---I'm still hanging in there. Had a big bleed on Friday, scan showed a small perigestational sac bleed, but it scared the bejeesus out of me. I'm on bedrest on dr's orders this week. So still climbing ladders at this stage with the damn snake biting my heels, but I'm not going to let it get me this time.
18-10-2011 11:34 #187
Frostysmum - wow that must have been so scary, I'm glad to hear that little bubba is ok. Bedrest is certainly the safest place for you and bub at the moment. The worry never ends during this process until our precious babies are safely in our arms and then a new set of worries begin. I'm thinking of you and your precious bub and sending lots of during this stressful time.
Take care

ok so starting to freak out AF will be arriving next week then I will be on my way to having FET except im so worried I havent called FS to book into the cycle arrrgh I just keep putting it off but maybe I will feel better tomorrow.
DD turns four tomorrow and she wont be getting the present she has been hoping for because well i dont know we ordered it in time should have been here today at the latest but my guess is they didnt order her bike on time its just lucky she will be getting a baby born as well or we wouldnt be getting her anything not happy.
I know she will be happy with the baby as she has been asking for a real baby for so long our last 2 pregnacies she new we were pregger and kept asking 4 baby then we MC and the asking kept up about when are we getting a baby so we had to change to getting a baby from the shop. so thats all she is getting when she wakes up it wil show up tomorrow

Hi all,
Ploddypop – thanks for sharing your story with us, it's great to hear after all these cycles there could be a happy ending :P
Starfish – ummmmm, project relax is pretty good... project get fit , not so much... can't help snacking during the day lately! Have been a lot better at drinking water which is good – if only that was somehow the infertility secret cure :P How was your ceremony? I think that's a great way to be at peace with what's happened so far and the new path you're taking. I really hope this next cycle with your sister will be the one for you! BTW – OCP is ok, Syneral is what DH hates as I'm... let's say, not the most fun person to be around. DH calls me 'Syneral Susan' during that time.... and he is NOT a fan! :P Lucky for him most of my cycles have been antagonist!
Moo – I remember you from other threads – welcome Hope your stay here is short and sweet – I think long term is a personal term, but maybe anything after a couple of cycles. I used to get so frustrated when someone had been trying for 'ages' and complaining how hard it was, then it turned out they'd been trying for 3 months or something. Not that it's not hard for them, but I don't think they can relate to how hard repeated failed cycles can be, and so I stopped participating in conversations, it was just too depressing. The other reason I love this thread is there is so much shared knowledge and everyone is willing to offer suggestions. (particularly Starf!sh is a guru and knows everything!)
Mummywannabee – hope your TWW is going well! Have you had your BT yet???
Danii – congratulations! All the best for your pregnancy
Lilybaby – Congrats on being PUPO Sounding really positive – good luck! When is your BT?
Hi Lola – I know exactly what you mean, feels like a conspiracy sometimes, everyone else has decided to get pregnant and announce it whenever I feel the most depressed about still not being pregnant. And then they're deserving and nice, so I can't even resent them for it! Not fair.
Do you know what's causing your infertility? All the best and welcome to the thread.
Big hugs Jamison – do what is right for you. Wishing you all the best with DH and your IVF journey if and when you continue xx
Frostysmum – Thanks for that, Ashgrove may be a bit far but St Andrews would work if it coincides with EPU – I will check that out, thanks! Wow that's scary, hope you're ok now, look after yourself!
Ok, I'm starting another cycle tomorrow, any suggestions would be welcome. Last the FS took the first cohort only (so a few days earlier than normal and way less numbers) and a low dose of 75. Usually I get around 25 even on a low dose, but don't have the oestrogen to support it. We always get low fert rates (sometimes none), even with ICSI. Last time only 2 of the 5 fertilised, but that's ok, 1 of them looked really good and was progressing pretty fast for us (normal for everyone else), so clearly the Luveris or 1st cohort has helped. I'm keen to have Luveris again, is there anything else anyone can think of for me to ask FS at the meeting tomorrow to improve quality/fert rates etc? Pretty close to going to a donor so really want this to work if we can.
18-10-2011 20:08 #190
MummyWB, hope you are quiet because you are celebrating a BFP?!!
Loveabug, Happy Birthday to your DD! Hopefully with this FET she will be getting her baby brother or sister just before her 5th birthday
Frosty, How terrifying! Glad to hear little bubba is safe and sound. Not long to go till NT scan now
Haydos, not sure about the guru status just have been around long enough to try most things *sigh* I really loved having acupuncture but got such mixed results in my cycles when I did it i.e. got 2 natural BFP's while going regularly for about 6 months but also had a thin lining on another cycle I'm thinking you are Brisbane based judging by Frosty's post? so can't give you a recommendation but I did find it incredibly relaxing and my acu very supportive. If you have the $$ it can be worth doing regularly leading up to a cycle, otherwise the main evidence points to increased success rates for treatment pre and post embie transfer. I'm guessing your FS wouldn't be keen to use DHEA given your high egg no's/ borderline PCOS. The only other thing I can think of in regards to improving egg quality/fert rates is to try Saizen (human growth hormone). I think Frosty also used this on her successful cycle?? It is $$$ but then again so is Luveris. All good with your DH's swimmers?
